…
The salvage ship threw down a super-large fishing net. The mesh was not very big, but basically, some small fish could crawl out from these mesh holes.
As for some of the larger fish, there was no other way. They could only try to catch them in the net …
Compared to this sturdy fishing net, even if the fish were slightly bigger and stronger, it would not cause much damage to the fishing net itself.
However, these salvage ships were most afraid of encountering a big guy like a whale when they were fishing …
If the whale was accidentally caught in the net, perhaps the whale itself would be in trouble, and it might even be trapped to death inside. However, its huge body and terrifying power not only posed a great threat to the salvage ship itself, but it might even destroy the treasures inside the sunken ship as well …
Imagine a giant whale more than ten meters long trapped in a sturdy net. When it struggled, it would inevitably run amok in the net.
The strength of a fish in the water was great, let alone this kind of whale. Although this ship seemed to be more than twice the size of the whale, if they really fought, this ship might not be the whale's opponent …
Therefore, the captain asked the people to slow down their movements and try not to disturb the whale as much as possible.
Now that he heard that it was just a sea snake, the captain was naturally much more relaxed.
Sea snakes were relatively slender and were mollusks without backbones. The mesh holes of their fishing net were big enough. Even if the sea snake was caught, it could still crawl out from the mesh holes …
In this way, the captain naturally did not need to worry much.
"Continue to cast the net, continue to cast the net …"
Since there was no need to worry, the most important thing was to hurry up. The captain immediately commanded the people to cast the net. Now, time was money. Every minute of delay could spoil things. He naturally did not want to waste time.
But …
"Ship, captain …"
Before he could do anything, the sailor who was in charge of the observation radar shouted again.
"What's wrong now?"
The captain was furious. This kid was really too insensible. He thought in his heart that when he returned this time, he must fire this kid. He really had too much nonsense to say.
"That sea serpent … sea serpent … bit our cable … and … and …"
The sailor was also frightened by the captain. His mouth trembled as he pointed at the radar screen. For a long time, he was unable to speak clearly.
"Motherf * cker, spit it out … What do you mean by a sea snake biting the cable?
What are you talking about? "
The captain was even more furious. He was even more determined to fire this kid. While cursing angrily, he walked over and looked at the radar screen.
"Urgh …"
But when they looked, they immediately realized that the sailor was telling the truth. The slender "sea serpent" had already bitten the rope they had thrown down.
Almost at the same time, the sailor in charge of casting the rope and fishing net in front of him immediately shouted, "Captain, the rope is stuck …"
"Fuck …"
However, before the captain had time to pay attention to the wailing of the crew on the other side, he couldn't help but look at the radar screen and burst out cursing.
Why?
Because he saw with his own eyes that the "sea serpent" was biting the cable they threw down at the moment, rushing up from the depths of the sea at high speed.
One end of the cable was connected to the fishing net. At this time, the "sea serpent" swayed the cable and swam forward. It immediately pulled the fishing net that was almost at the bottom and came back together with it.
On the radar, it could be seen very clearly that the "sea serpent" was pulling the cable and was quickly swimming up from the bottom of the sea. Its speed was quite fast, almost rushing up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If it weren't for the certainty that this "sea serpent" would not directly hit the bottom of their ship, they would have already driven the ship away.
"Ship, Captain … it … it's coming at us … coming at us!"
Even so, the observing sailor still looked at the radar in disbelief and said with trepidation. His tone was extremely frightened, and there was a little despair, as if the end of the world was in front of him.
Pa ~ ~
"Shut up!"
This kid was too timid. He was scared like this just by seeing this scene. The Captain immediately slapped him fiercely and scolded him sternly at the same time.
At this time, it was not the time to panic. If all the crew members were like this kid, then they wouldn't be able to survive at sea.
This was just a sea serpent causing trouble. It was not a very important matter. There was no need to make a fuss at all …
If he was afraid when encountering this kind of thing, then if he encountered a storm or a tornado at sea, then this kid would be scared to death …
"Woo woo woo! ~ ~"
The Captain's tone was extremely stern, and the kid was so scared that he didn't dare to make a sound. He could only shrink his neck and hide aside, not daring to make a sound.
For this result, the Captain was quite satisfied, so he ignored him and turned to consider how to deal with the situation at hand.
"Captain, it hasn't slowed down yet …"
After being taught a lesson by the Captain, the kid was a lot more honest, but he didn't dare to be surprised, but looking at the speed displayed on the radar, he couldn't help but remind him.
"It hasn't slowed down yet …"
This time, even the Captain figured out that something was wrong.
From the data displayed on the radar, this "Sea Serpent" was only a few dozen meters away from the surface of the sea at this time. If it didn't slow down at this time, it was likely to rush out of the sea directly.
If it was just an ordinary fish rushing out of the water, it would at most flutter in the air and then continue to fall back into the sea. It would basically have no effect.
However, the problem was that this "sea snake" was very large. It was more than ten meters long. At such a high speed, it was very likely that it would rush out of the sea very high. Furthermore, it was currently pulling a huge fishing net …
Once the fishing net was forcibly pulled out of the sea and then fell down, with the angle of this Sea Serpent, the entire net might completely cover their ship …
With such a large net, it was very difficult to release it, let alone put it away. That was a kind of torture … And this referred to retrieving it from the sea.
But if the entire net was covered on the ship, then it would be even more difficult to retrieve it …
If it really reached that point, their salvage would definitely fail, and just retrieving the net would be enough for them to spend a lot of effort.
"Everyone on guard, get the weapons …"
At the thought of this, the Captain's face suddenly became quite ugly. That was not the result he wanted, so he immediately gave the order.
All the crew members were taken aback when they heard this, but they quickly put down their work and immediately ran to the cabin to get the weapons.
The sailors on these salvage ships were not good people. They were generally equipped with some weapons. Some fishing boats and salvage ships from Luzon would occasionally cross the border and become pirates, robbing some merchant ships that passed by.
This ship was no exception. Naturally, it also carried a lot of weapons.
Soon, the sailors came out, each holding a weapon in their hands, including pistols, fishing guns, and some similar weapons.
Their firepower was not particularly strong, but it was more than enough for those fish. They were even not afraid of some ferocious great white sharks and killer whales.
Splash ~ ~ ~
Almost as soon as these sailors were ready, they heard a huge splash suddenly appearing on the sea. The sea was constantly churning. At a glance, they knew that there must be some large sea beasts coming out.
Everyone seemed very nervous. The "sea serpent" was about to appear … They all raised the weapons in their hands and aimed at that direction.
Splash ~ ~ ~
Finally …
The "Sea Snake" came out!
An incomparably huge and strange head rushed out first. It looked very strange, and it had two huge horns. At this moment, its bloody mouth was biting the thick rope, and its sharp teeth could be vaguely seen ….
Then, the slender silver body gradually rushed out of the water. Amidst the sparkling light, the scales on the silver body projected rays of light that were so dazzling that it was almost impossible to open one's eyes.
"This … What kind of monster is this?"
Everyone was stunned. They had never seen such a monster in front of them. It didn't seem to be a known creature, as if it came from myths and legends.
"Do it …"
It's just that compared to the shock of the sailors, the captain's temperament was much more stubborn. He immediately woke up from the surprise, and at the same time, he roared with an extremely furious voice.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~ ~
Da da da ~ ~ ~
Being roared by the captain, the sailors also recovered from their shock. At the same time, they raised the weapons in their hands, aimed at the slender "monster" that was quickly rushing out of the water and fired.
This was not a monster, it was precisely appointed by Qin Fang to deal with this salvage ship.
It's just that as the little dragon rushed out of the sea, it was immediately attacked by the sailors on the salvage ship. Bullets poured on its body like it was worthless, and those sharp fishing spears were all shot at its body.
Dang dang dang ~ ~
Ding ding ding ~ ~
When these bullets and fishing spears hit the little dragon's body and hit the dragon scales in its body, they immediately made such a sound, as if they hit metal. The sound was exceptionally crisp.
The dragon scales themselves were the most powerful defense on the surface of the little dragon's body. How could it be so easy to break through … Even in the face of these bullets and fishing spears, they still couldn't hurt it.
