Chapter 487, the unsinkable fishing boat

|||->->On this day, the sea was windy and sunny, and it was a good day to go to sea, and five small magic warships of the Condor Navy set off from the Ryukyu Islands and sailed side by side on the vast sea.

Since the capture of the Ryukyu Islands, the Condor Navy has been using the Ryukyu Islands as a base and constantly exploring the surrounding waters.

In the Condor Empire, every time a new island is discovered or captured, a reward will be received from Ning Yuan, so the pioneering enthusiasm of the Condor Navy is very high.

Unlike the Army, the Condor Navy's battle sequence is based on battleships, and each battle squad consists of five small magic warships, each of which is loaded with two hundred navy and one hundred mermaid warriors.

In the process of exploration, in order to avoid encountering danger and annihilating the whole army, the Condor Navy stipulates that each combat team can only have four magic warships directly participate in the battle at a time, and the fifth ship will observe the enemy situation in the back, and once it finds that the situation is not right, it will immediately return to the rear to report the specific situation.

Ji Yun and Wu Qing are the captain and deputy captain of the Flying Fish Demon Energy Battleship respectively, Ji Yun is responsible for commanding the 200 Condor Navy on the ship, and Wu Qing is responsible for commanding 100 Mermaid Warriors, and they are ordered to explore the East China Sea this time.

The fleet sailed the sea for two days in a row, and found nothing but a few large rock piles that barely made up for small islands.

Looking at the endless distance, Ji Yun asked listlessly: "Old Wu, why do you say that the lord is so keen to explore the far sea?" It seems that you merfolk don't like these places very much. ”

"It's not that we merfolk don't like the open sea, it's that we can't live without land.

You don't think we're very good at the water, we can stay in the water for months on end, but to be honest, no one likes to be in the water all day long if we don't have to, we prefer to rest on land.

I'll tell you, if it weren't for our Magical Battleships, if you let us swim and explore, no matter how rewarding it is, we wouldn't do it.

As for this hobby of the lord, to be honest, I don't know much about it, the open sea is full of seawater, and I can't see any fish. ”

Wu Qing replied while shaking his head.

Not only did Ji Yun, who was a human race, not understand Ning Yuan's plan, but even Wu Qing, who was a mermaid race, was also unwilling to explore the endless open sea, in their opinion, it was still the land and the offshore sea rich in fish resources that were more worthy of their competition.

Because of the existence of the Lost Continent, Ning Yuan felt that if there were any big secrets in the game that had not been discovered by the players, then these secrets were likely to be hidden in the endless ocean.

Only the vast ocean can hide these secrets, which is why he is so obsessed with exploring the ocean.

In fact, Ning Yuan's persistence was not untargeted, but he discovered a little secret.

On the world map given to the player lord by the system, in addition to the territories of known countries on the Great Earth, many oceans are in an unexplored state of fog.

Ning Yuan accidentally discovered that when a fleet of the Condor Navy deviated from the course, the fog on that part of the world map disappeared at once.

The disappearance of the mist means that the area has been successfully explored, and since the mist will disappear because of exploration, then their existence must be meaningful, so what does the god Nuwa want to hide with them?

Once curiosity is seduced, if you can't get an accurate answer, it's quite uncomfortable.

So, in order to satisfy his curiosity and stop scratching his ears and cheeks, Ning Yuan formulated a strategy to explore the ocean.

Just when Ji Yun and Wu Qing were chatting without saying a word, a small island suddenly appeared in front of the fleet.

From afar, you can see a touch of green on the island.

Green means that there is fresh water and plants on the island, and with these two things, there is likely to be other life on the island.

After seeing that touch of green, Ji Yun and Wu Qing immediately became energetic, and after they left a magic energy battleship to observe the situation in the rear, the other four battleships sailed straight towards the island.

As we get closer, the island soon comes into view.

There are some unknown trees growing on the island, there are a few simple cabins near the coast, and a few fishing boats are parked on the shore.

After spotting a large boat approaching, a dozen men ran out of the hut, and after boarding the fishing boat, they rowed desperately in the direction of the Condor Navy.

Seeing that the inhabitants of the island wanted to escape, Ji Yun immediately commanded the magic energy battleship to chase after him.

In order to catch the mouth alive, Ji Yun did not let the naval soldiers on the magic energy battleship launch a long-range attack, and he handed over this task to the mermaid warriors on the battleship.

Because it was too boring to stay on the battleship, Wu Qing personally went out and led the mermaid warriors to plunge directly into the sea.

After surrounding the fishing boat from under the sea, Wu Qing suddenly showed a mischievous smile, and the mermaid warriors understood, they grabbed the bottom of the boat from all directions, and then crackled and chiseled.

Wu Qing originally wanted to scuttle the fishing boat, and then play a game of catching small fish with the people on the boat for a while in the water.

But when he slashed the bottom of the ship several times in a row with an axe made of blue iron, his face suddenly changed.

Glancing at the blue iron axe in his hand, and then at the bottom of the ship that was unscathed, Wu Qing's heart suddenly chuckled.

"Don't even play with it, quickly overturn the boat for me, and then bring me back even the people and the boat."

Looking at the mermaid warriors who were still clanging and hitting the bottom of the boat, Wu Qing gave an order with a serious face.

Their mermaid clan has a pivotal position in the Condor Navy, and after Ning Yuan formulated the maritime strategy, he loved them even more.

The reason why they were able to get these treatments was simply because they could enter the water and scuttle the enemy's warships, and without their escort, the warships of the Condor Navy would not have been able to leave the port at all.

Wu Qing originally thought that they were the overlords in the ocean, because no matter how huge the battleship was, they could be scuttled.

But the fishing boats above his head made him wake up suddenly, it turned out that their mermaid clan is not omnipotent in the ocean, it turns out that there are really unsinkable boats in this world.

Wu Qing knew that this was a very important discovery, and it was likely to change the pattern of naval warfare in the future, so he didn't dare to have any slackness, and after overturning the fishing boat and knocking the people on board unconscious, he immediately dragged back with the people and the boat.

After returning to the battleship and explaining the specific situation to Ji Yun, the two immediately asked the captives to wake up, and then conducted a surprise interrogation.

When the two of them received some information from the captive, they felt the seriousness of the matter, so they decided to return to the ship immediately and report their findings to the higher-ups.
