95: I didn't expect someone to be braver than her.
Several people pulled the fishing rod with all their might.
“So heavy, it must be around 70kg!”
“It’s too heavy!”
“I caught it, it was me, it was Mermaid Miss who caught it, not anyone else, it was Mermaid Miss who caught it!!”
Mermaid Miss shouted excitedly.
She seemed afraid that others would steal her victory, as she had managed to catch a 70kg fish.
Herself…
What an amazing Mermaid Miss!
Finally, with their combined effort, the fishing rod bent to a point where it looked like it would snap the next second.
And the fish they caught was finally pulled up!
Indeed, what a white fish!
About 1.76 meters tall, weighing 70kg, with slightly swollen limbs and chest/abdomen, slightly sparse hair, an age between 30 and 40, and yellow discharge from the nose and mouth.
…
Wait a minute.
This doesn't seem to be a fish.
Mermaid Miss froze for a moment, her excited shouts stopped, and her hand quickly left the fishing rod, then she looked at Old Captain.
“Old Captain, why did you fish up a corpse!”
Old Captain: …
How could he have thought this Mermaid Miss was cute, just like his granddaughter?
As the corpse was transferred to the deck, the surrounding sea seemed to trigger a chain reaction.
More and more sea fish floated up from the bottom of the sea, one after another, with their white bellies exposed.
Large and small, countless fish corpses continuously surfaced.
In a blink of an eye, with the Jennice as the center, the surrounding area was white, entirely covered in fish corpses.
It was as if they had arrived in a world of death, an ocean filled with death.
All life in this sea area would die.
There was… this feeling.
A pungent stench continuously emanated from the corpses, and none of the elders on the ship had ever seen such a situation.
They all turned pale, unable to speak.
Jia Gu Yi Yan, who was cultivating in the cabin, heard about the corpse outside and had already walked out.
At this moment, he looked over the railing on the outer side of the deck and saw the countless fish corpses in this sea area.
He also felt a chill in his heart.
“...This, this, this...”
Old Captain's eyes widened, and veins bulged on the rough back of his hand gripping the railing.
This voyage was truly too ominous.
Such strange occurrences happened one after another.
Not only Old Captain, but even all the crew members felt that when the Jennice sailed out of the harbor on this voyage, it was already plagued by bad luck.
“Quick, quickly leave this sea area, do not stay!”
Old Captain quickly instructed the sailors and crew to control the ship and accelerate out of this sea area.
The corpses on both sides of the ship were also pushed aside by the accelerating ship, some were sucked under the ship and crushed to pieces by the hull.
The crushed corpses mixed with blood, leaving a crimson blood trail behind the ship.
Looking back now, it was as if the entire ship was sailing into a sea of blood filled with corpses.
“Throw the corpse overboard!”
“Then sprinkle disinfectant, spray the entire ship!”
The first moment Old Captain saw this scene, he began to suspect if it was some unknown virus.
The first moment Jia Gu Yi Yan saw this scene, he began to suspect if there was a monster.
The man's corpse was thrown off the ship, and then, the crew began to spray disinfectant in batches.
Starting from where the man's corpse lay on the deck, they spread outwards, spraying the entire ship.
There was no end, only fish!
Fish corpses everywhere!
No matter how the ship sailed, there were fish corpses all around, they simply couldn't get out!
Until they continued to sail forward.
Everyone on the ship held their breath, seeing a giant corpse!
The corpse was about twenty meters in size, floating on the sea surface, like a small mountain of flesh.
It was a dead whale corpse, floating on the water!
Mermaid Miss looked at the giant whale in front of her, covered her mouth, and showed a sad expression.
The other crew members and Old Captain also showed sad, gloomy expressions when they saw this giant whale.
For those who sailed on the sea, seeing a whale was always a sign of good fortune.
It represented a smooth and successful voyage.
Some of them even worshipped whales, believing them to be the embodiment of the ocean's soul.
But if they saw a whale's corpse.
That was a sign of even worse misfortune, even worse than bad.
Just as everyone remained silent. A fish corpse suddenly moved.
Then, all the fish corpses began to move.
A powerful monster aura rushed towards them.
This monster aura, carrying a pungent stench, almost transformed into a dark black giant wave over all the corpses, attacking the ship.
The bizarre scene scared almost everyone on the ship, causing them to fall down.
“Demons, demons have come to the human world!”
“We have arrived in hell, we have disturbed the messengers of hell!”
“The sea is punishing us!”
“…”
Jia Gu Yi Yan automatically ignored the surrounding prayers, and facing the stinky wave, he came to the bow of the ship.
He looked at the giant whale corpse.
And the whale's corpse also bounced heavily, its massive body slowly rolled, straightening itself.
The crimson, even slightly rotten corpse looked at Jia Gu Yi Yan.
Is this truly the real enemy awaiting him in this vast ocean?
The true monster has finally appeared.
The scene around him was indeed terrifying, but Jia Gu Yi Yan felt a sense of relief in his heart.
If the monster hadn't appeared, he would have remained suspicious and paranoid.
But if the monster appeared, a battle was about to erupt.
Jia Gu Yi Yan was no longer as nervous.
Next, he just needed to fight.
He didn't need to consider anything else, only to consider: win, live; lose, die.
“Finally couldn't resist, huh?”
“This sea area you chose is truly excellent, suitable as your burial ground.”
Jia Gu Yi Yan looked at the eerie sea surface and the approaching whale, and shouted.
However, no one responded to Jia Gu Yi Yan's voice.
“Hiding your head and tail, it suits your monster identity.”
Jia Gu Yi Yan walked, reaching into his embrace.
“Guest, you…”
Old Captain looked at Jia Gu Yi Yan.
Although he had long realized that Jia Gu Yi Yan's identity was not simple, after hearing what he just said, he felt that Jia Gu Yi Yan's identity was even more surprising than he had expected.
“Don’t worry, just leave it to me to handle later.”
Jia Gu Yi Yan patted Old Captain's shoulder, then took out his Summoner with one hand and drew out a firebird card with the other.
Clang!
The metal belt was summoned out as the Summoner was pressed against his waist, wrapping around his waist, and the Summoner was pressed into the center of the belt.
“Fire Finch.”
Click!
“Combine.”
Flames burned through his body, transforming into Fire Finch armor, shining with the light of flowing flames, bestowing Jia Gu Yi Yan with the power of Fire Finch.
Watching this scene, the captain's eyes widened.
He originally thought Mermaid Miss was amazing enough, but he didn't expect someone to be even more amazing than her.
This man, he was actually the legendary Armored Warrior!
