Chapter 611.1 Sea Behemoths' Disappearance (part 1)
Under the blue sky, there is a blue ocean. On top of it, there is a fleet of thousands of s.h.i.+ps. Rows of waves surged away from the bottom of their s.h.i.+ps, throwing up large patches of white bubbles.
Sea birds constantly cried as they flew above the fleet, and sometimes they would land on the s.h.i.+p’s side, or on the deck, or on the mast.
There is a huge s.h.i.+p in the middle and it can be clearly seen that it’s the command s.h.i.+p of this fleet. At this moment on the command s.h.i.+p, there were many people standing or sitting around the deck.
Because of their previous conversation, these people were silent.
This fleet’s main income has been from adventure and hunting sea behemoths, but now, they couldn’t find a single sea behemoth in this area.
Of course, there are still sea beasts, but they are all relatively low-level and small sea beasts. For a fleet of this scale, these small sea beasts are almost worthless. They won’t even be able to pay a quarter of their expenditure by hunting them.
The fact that they couldn’t hunt a single large sea beast after wandering in the sea for so many days caused them to feel anxious. At this rate, they can only go back empty-handed.
“Captain, what should we do next?”
A man, wearing a white t-s.h.i.+rt, looked at a middle-aged man with a big beard beside him. The middle-aged face was filled with vicissitudes of life, but his eyes were deep, like a black whirlpool, attracting anyone that looked at them.
“Go on, I don’t believe that we won’t find a single large sea beast here,”
The bearded man is the captain of this fleet. As an old crew member who has been galloping on the sea for decades, he has encountered countless situations and faced numerous incidents.
He guessed that there may be some ocean current or undercurrent surging in this area, taking away most sea beasts.
Of course, even if there are ocean currents, it shouldn’t make this sea area so silent.
So, it’s probably due to other reasons. It’s either the appearance of some dangerous location or a super large sea behemoth, scaring the rest of the sea beasts and forcing them to hide.
“Well, it’s probably because of this.”
The bearded captain’s eyes narrowed involuntarily. He remembers a similar incident in the past.
After going out to sea, he didn’t encounter a single sea beast for a while. A few days later, the sea beasts that disappeared emerged one after the other in another calm sea region.
At that time, they could only return empty-handed, and after they returned for a while, the government announced that the reason for the large scale sea beasts’ disappearance is due to the presence of a super large sea behemoth.
“Boss, did you find anything?”
Suddenly, a slender man on the side noticed the slight change on the bearded captain’s face, hence he quickly asked.
Hearing this, the captain nodded and said,
“I have experienced a similar incident before…” After a moment of silence, he recounted his experience to the crew on the bow.
The other people next to him nodded after listening. They were originally quite worried, but after listening to the story of the captain, most of their worries disappeared.
“Boss, what is the level of the sea behemoth you mentioned?”
After listening to the story of the bearded man, the lean man became interested in that super sea behemoth.
“It’s said that it’s at least a world master cla.s.s.”
“Shhhh!!”
The sound of air being sucked sounded on the bow of the s.h.i.+p. Although there are quite a few immortal-cla.s.s masters on this planet, they are the absolute top combat power.
Usually, they might not appear in front of people for thousands of years.
For ordinary people, world masters are already extremely powerful people. Most ordinary cultivators might not see one in their entire life.
“What do you think is the level of the sea behemoth that appeared this time?”
Another sailor said with a careless tone.
“By the way, what if this sea behemoth hasn’t gone far?”
Hearing his “ominous” sentence, the corners of everyone’s mouth twitched. One of them couldn’t help but shout at the careless guy.
“Shut your crow’s mouth! Since it’s able to make an entire sea area silent, this sea behemoth is mostly a world master-level creature. If it discovers our existence, we’re done for!”
After saying this, most of the people on the bow turned to the bearded man, seeking his opinion.
“We’ll stay in this place.”
After hesitating, the bearded captain made a decision,
“There are still some small sea beasts in this sea area. The super sea behemoth should have left for some time. I think that in a short while, the large sea beasts will come out one after the other.”
“Understood.”
Others have no opinion. Their s.h.i.+p is only registered in this sea area, so they can’t carry out any hunting activities in other areas.
They have to apply for a pa.s.s before doing so, wasting a lot of time. Furthermore, if they go back empty-handed this time, then their loss will be great.
Everyone can’t bear that kind of result, so they can only grit their teeth and remain in this area, praying that their captain’s guess is true.
“Haah, I hope that super sea behemoth has gone far.”
Everyone looked at the endless ocean ahead, praying internally, but what they didn’t know was that a hundred meters long serpent was wandering hundreds of meters below their s.h.i.+ps.
Fang Yun increased his size to about 100 meters to prey on the creatures in the ocean more easily.
He found a lot of sea behemoths in this area. Most of them are planet-level. There are a few star-level and some extremely rare cosmic-level.
Generally, creatures of this level can fly in s.p.a.ce and destroy planets and stars, but this giant planet is enveloped by many formations, strengthening it to the point of terror and prohibiting unregistered flight. Of course, it didn’t matter to Fang Yun.
He settled here for a while, devouring many sea behemoths on his way. The only ones who survived are the weak sea beasts with low intelligence. Fang Yun disdains to eat such weak creatures.
