The night is getting darker and darker, and the harbor of Gulang Island is filled with ships of all sizes parked calmly. Among them, the most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly the nearly 300 armored warships, which are the main warships of the Dingxi Army. It is said that each armored warship was built with hundreds of thousands of kilograms of fine iron. Qingtianhou personally seized several iron mines before building it, which consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.
Under the thick darkness, it was rare for the soldiers to get together and party all night long. However, there were still some who stayed at their posts, but not many.
The first to notice something strange were a few soldiers who jumped into the sea for a swim after having had enough food and drinks. After swimming for a while, these soldiers noticed strange waves appearing on the sea. The waves were not high, but they came very quickly. In this situation, the veterans who have been hanging around in the sea all year round are a little confused and don't understand what is going on. It didn't look like a tsunami or wind, but rather similar to the ripples in the sea before an earthquake.
Following these soldiers, a sentry standing on the mast also noticed something strange. It was too dark to see anything in the distance, but his ears vaguely heard a strange sound. Bursts of muffled sounds came vaguely from the distance shrouded in the night, like thunder or the roar of some monster beast.
There are many kinds of monsters on the vast sea, and it is said that there are several times more monsters than all the monsters on the mainland combined. Whenever night falls, it is normal to hear the roar of monsters in the distance, but the sentinels on the mast are alert, and the reason is very simple.
Ever since the army destroyed the gate of Gulangmen and captured the island and settled there, there have been very few monsters in the nearby waters. Especially tonight, all the troops have withdrawn and gathered together, a total of 200,000 troops. Which evil beast without eyes dares to run wild here? What kind of monster does it take to dare to run wild in the nearby waters
The weird muffled sound became clearer and clearer, and the distance was getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of swimming on the sea. Just the scream is nothing, but the astonishing speed is surprising, it is not much slower than the flying sword!
On the mast, the sentry, who was already a little dizzy from drinking, suddenly woke up, dropped the wine bottle in his hand, bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and fired a special crossbow arrow into the sky.
A dazzling light streaked across the night sky like a shooting star, vaguely illuminating the distance shrouded in darkness.
The sentry standing on the mast suddenly froze, with a look of disbelief on his face.
With the light from the crossbow arrows, he saw the most shocking scene in his life. On the horizon with the same color of water that day, an armored warship appeared at some point and headed towards Gulang Island at full speed. Behind the armored warship were endless wildebeest crocodiles, so densely packed together that there was no end in sight. They followed the warship like a tidal wave, roaring and getting closer and closer.
Who is that
Guest, Yu Mo, and..., Deputy Commander Liu Yuan
The speed of the warship and the herd was very fast. In the blink of an eye, the sentry even vaguely saw two familiar figures. Rain Demon and Deputy Commander Yanagi Yuan were standing on the deck, shouting something from a distance, and waving bright red in their hands. The flag sounded the alarm from afar.
The urgent sound of the horn quickly sounded and echoed in the night sky.
The sentry standing on the mast finally came to his senses and sounded the horn hanging on his waist crazily.
The first to react were the neglected sentries on each warship, who hurriedly climbed onto the masts of their respective ships. The sound of crossbow arrows pierced the air one after another, and the specially-made crossbow arrows were shot into the air, streaking across the night sky with dazzling light. Pass. This time, the distance between the beasts was even closer. They were more than ten miles away just now, but within the blink of an eye, they were less than seven miles away.
Seeing the herd of beasts following the warship, all the sentries were stunned. Soon, the rapid sound of horns sounded together, like the horn of death, making everyone's heart beat wildly.
"The enemy is attacking, the beasts are coming!"
"Get on the ship, use the warship to set up a defense line to stop the beasts, don't let them rush up, hurry!"
"Get on the boat, everyone, get on the boat, quickly!"
…
The commanders at all levels roared loudly, and the soldiers rushed out from all over the island in panic. They had no time to put on their helmets and armor, and hurriedly boarded the warships docked in the harbor. In the cabin on the bottom floor, the soldiers waved their whips and frantically beat those who tried to rest against the hull, and the huge warships moved quickly.
The deafening roar and the overwhelming sound of the waves are getting closer and closer. No need for the commanders to say anything, the soldiers also felt the strong danger and took action.
In the underground grotto, a tall figure rushed out quickly.
Qiye Nazhen, who had finally calmed down with the help of Sandalwood, rushed out in a furious manner and shouted loudly, "What's going on? Come on, what happened?"
Several soldiers rushed up, but before they could report, Qiye Nazhen flew up to a big tree and saw clearly what was happening on the sea.
In the harbor, armored warships set sail in a hurry. The soldiers standing on the deck were in chaotic formation. Some of them had no time to put on their shirts, and some were even barefoot. People got on the ship, but all their weapons and armor were left behind. , looking for weapons in a mess. A few miles away, an armored ship came quickly, followed by a dense herd of beasts with no end in sight.
Qi Ye Nazhen's hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and his face was pale and he was sweating.
What a disaster, this is definitely an avoidable catastrophe!
The thing that Qiye Nazhen had been most worried about had happened. As soon as he saw the beasts coming in like a tide, he knew something was wrong and his eyebrows jumped wildly. The soldiers were obviously unprepared and hurriedly boarded the ship to fight. Wasn't this a way to die
"Master Qi, the enemy..., the enemy is attacking, the beasts are attacking!" The captain of the soldiers finally arrived and stepped forward to report to Master Qi.
Qiye Nazhen was unusually silent and silent at this juncture. The captain of the soldiers felt something bad and subconsciously raised his head slightly, just in time to see Qiye looking over coldly, expressionless.
The strong body captain suddenly panicked, "Qi..., Qiye, the enemy..., the enemy is attacking..."
"You also know about the enemy attack?"
Seventh Master Nazhen said coldly: "Did you pass on the order I told you before? Did you supervise it carefully? What are your two eyes for?"
"Master Qi, I..." The captain of the personal army was sweating and his body was shaking. He knew something was wrong. Before he could defend himself, a cold light suddenly flashed before his eyes, and his head separated from his body.
A cold scimitar appeared in the hands of Qiye Nazhen.
With just one strike, the soldier captain of the sixth level of the Real Realm lost his head. Not to mention dodging, he didn't even have time to scream.
"Pass my order, fight to the death, and never let a monster rush onto the island!" Seventh Master Nazhen ordered in a deep voice, without even looking at the body of the captain.
"yes!"
The remaining soldiers were trembling all over and hurriedly bowed to accept the order and turned around to leave, running away as if they were fleeing for their lives. Behind him, Master Qi Nazhen was filled with murderous intent, and his face gradually became ferocious and twisted. The restrictions on the Lost City have been loosened, and the entrance has been revealed in the past two days. At this time, we must not let the beasts rush onto the island and ruin the big thing. Otherwise, he will be the first to be beheaded by Qingtianhou to hold him accountable!
Thinking about Qing Tianhou's methods, the cruel Qi Ye Nazhen shuddered and wanted to defend Gulang Island at all costs.
