Three days, four days...and in the blink of an eye it was seven days. This was already the ninth day after departure. As they continued to go south, the temperature continued to rise. This made Zhang Hao and Zhao Dahe very excited, but this excitement could not be

Say it to others.

Perhaps the biggest poison that time has brought to the world is loneliness. Everyone is still drifting on the vast sea. There is no land, no green, and all you can see is the vast sea and the deep blue or blue-black color.

Loneliness is the only melody.

Outside the battleship is the dangerous green sea of ​​death; although the past few days have been calm, the excessive calm has made everyone feel inexplicably uneasy.

In fact, this kind of uneasiness is not necessarily a warning against danger, but more of a kind of... loneliness!

In this vast sea, there are only two battleships that belong to everyone. Compared with the vast sea, they are so small. A 10,000-ton warship is nothing more than a small boat on the sea.

The sea beneath our feet is full of dangers. As far as the eye can see, there is not even an inch of land on which to stand. To the east, west, south, and north, the sea and the sky are connected, like a blue cage.

That kind of loneliness, even helplessness, is difficult to express in words. But this feeling is engulfing everyone's heart little by little.

The faces of the once excited sailors have become numb.

When sailing on the sea, the biggest threat actually comes from loneliness.

Unconsciously, it was lunch time on the ninth day. Everyone had to eat a bowl of bean sprouts and tea every time. This kind of living habit is not Zhang Hao's cheating, but... he learned it from the East! This is

It is an experience summed up through life.

But today at lunch time, there were discordant sounds. Finally, some sailors began to mutter that they should return! Some sailors even said that they always felt that there was something bad ahead, which got a lot of recognition.

At first it was just whispers, but in the evening, everyone even started to discuss it openly, and it also reached Zhang Hao's ears.

No matter how brave and high-spirited these people were when they set out, they were finally defeated by loneliness. They began to become timid.

Facing the sea, what you see is the power of nature. Compared with this power of nature, human beings are so small. Even in the stage of becoming a god, they are small in front of this nature.

In the past few days, even Chen Yansong was a little tired on the sea. He could not practice and rest with peace of mind. He was in a state of vigilance all the time. In fact, not only Chen Yansong, but everyone was

in this way.

Zhang Hao is also calculating that during these seven days, the battleship's forward speed has always been around 100 kilometers; as of the ninth day now, the entire voyage has been at least 18,000 kilometers.

Even if there were twists and turns and there were battles, the straight-line distance should still be 14,000 kilometers.

Calculated according to the scale of the earth, the entire distance is almost close to the protruding part of the west coast of the Tuotu Continent. This is far beyond the northernmost part of the Tuotu Continent, I guess.

Perhaps the ship can move southeast and try to find land.

After making some rough calculations, Zhang Hao stood up. With the help of Chen Yansong, Zhang Hao's voice enveloped the two battleships: "Everyone, I am Zhang Hao. I have a few words to say to you."

Everyone put down their work, raised their heads, and raised their ears.

"This evening, I heard the chatter of some crew members. First of all, I am very happy that everyone can speak out what is on their mind instead of keeping it in their hearts. But on the other hand, I am not very happy either. We are now a whole body. What do you have to say?

Can't you tell me, Dugu Junjie, or Zhao Yuhang?

But let it go this time. Next time, we will definitely get to the bottom of it.

Now I want to ask you a question: Is the heroic spirit you had when you set out still there? Is the courage to cross the green sea of ​​death and regard death as home still still there?

As a practitioner, how much ambition do you still have of having endless fun fighting against heaven?"

Zhang Hao's voice echoed on the two battleships. Some sailors gradually lowered their heads, but even more sailors stood up straight, heads held high!

"Raise your head! Keep your head down, will the difficulty be over? Our country's experience has already told us that timidity has no way out! Our road needs to be expanded with courage. Our hope needs to be watered with sweat.

!

Our future... needs to be developed with our lives!

You are all the bravest people. The tens of millions of people in the Qixia Kingdom place their hopes on you, and the group has used its best resources on you. The flesh and blood of the monsters in the transformation stage obtained from the first voyage,

It's all given to you.

Could it be that using too much of a good thing only consumes your courage?"

"Everyone, we have no retreat. If possible, I would also like to sit in the office of Dayang Group, surrounded by beauties, drinking spiritual tea, and enjoying endless wealth. I have the qualifications!

But I didn't, I gave up these and came to the sea with you!

for what?

In order to let our country stand up, in order that we will no longer accept bullying and rolling eyes from others! In order for our descendants to no longer accept bullying!

The Queen used the crown jewel in exchange for half a year. After half a year, if we still cannot succeed, will our family still be able to enjoy the current environment?

Everyone raised their heads and believed that they could succeed.

According to the records of "Kuo Di Xiang", we should have approached the west coast of Tuotu Continent, and it is expected that we will be able to see land in three days at most.

If we return now, it will take at least seven days; but if we continue to move forward, it will only take three days!"

Zhang Hao's voice disappeared, but the atmosphere on the battleship gradually changed. The previous complaints and so on gradually disappeared; everyone's morale when they just went to sea seemed to be restored.

However, Zhang Hao also knew that this temporary boost of morale would not last long. The considerable impact on the sea could not be ignored. Three days was also the limit.

Everyone was driven into the sea without any choice! It has been nine days since we saw land or green.

There was not much mental preparation, not much professional training, and even the country of Qixia had no sailing tradition; it relied entirely on passion (three minutes of blood). And just from the beginning, they explored the dangerous Green Sea of ​​Death, and encountered mirages before.

dragon.

And in this vast sea, there are only two small steel battleships, which are where everyone stays.

It's already good to be able to persist for nine days before starting to complain.

But... it’s not good enough! Because it hasn’t been successful yet!

The battleship began to turn and sail toward the southeast; after two days of such calmness, the morale of the sailors was rapidly draining away.

As the saying goes, it's easy to make a big effort but then it fades away. The same principle applies here. Zhang Hao is also a little anxious. Even if a sea monster comes out at this time, he just needs to be busy.

If you continue to be idle like this, something will really happen. Human beings are very strange animals. As long as they are busy, they will be fine; if they are idle, something will happen!

A qualified company will always keep its employees busy and engage in arts and crafts outside of work. They must not let their employees be idle. Something will happen if they are idle!

But God seemed to have heard Zhang Hao’s call. In the afternoon of the next day, there were suddenly groups of “triangle fish fins” crossing the sea!

Zhang Hao's eyes instantly shrank: It couldn't be a group of sharks! Or a creature similar to a shark. Sharks in another world are scary. I wonder what kind of sharks exist here?

The triangular fins are like knives cutting across the sea. The black shadow under the sea is more than ten meters long, and there are a group of such 'marine monsters'. Occasionally, some jump out of the sea, and you can see the cold light shining neatly.

And sharp teeth.

This is definitely a shark! However, the appearance of these sharks is even more ferocious. Their backs, sides and other places are even covered with bone spurs and bone armor. At first glance, they are not weak creatures.

The boat became tense.

But the group of sharks did not stop around the battleship, but continued south. South, not southeast. In short, they did not slow down.

"Chase!" Zhang Hao waved his hand. Shark groups are generally closer to the coast, or the continental shelf, but not too close to the shallow sea, because there is abundant food here.

Zhang Hao is not sure what the habits of sharks in this world are, but when seeing such swarms of sharks, he should always pay attention. At least, give the current fleet some fun. The right crisis can best improve morale.

.

The battleship moved in the direction of the shark, but soon lost track of it. The shark here was a marine monster after all, and its speed was extremely fast. However, its forward direction was generally a straight line, so the battleship just moved in this direction. Of course, Zhao Dahe

It's a bit harder and you need to monitor the course.

It is said that it was all thanks to Zhao Dahe along the way. Without the Star Navigation Technique and Zhao Dahe, the warship would have easily lost its way. Along the way, we encountered compass confusion twice and cloudy weather several times. It would be easy for people to lose their way on the sea.

Within ten minutes, the battleship completely lost all traces of the shark. It followed the direction of the shark until the next morning, and Dugu Junjie finally couldn't help but find Zhang Hao: Such an aimless pursuit does not seem wise! We

The best choice is to approach the southeast direction.

But this time Zhang Hao strongly rejected Dugu Junjie's statement: "The ones I saw yesterday should be sharks, also known as sharks, which are ferocious predators in the sea. They are roughly similar to wolves on land.

However, shark hunting is different from that of wolves. They have two possible hunting habits. One is the fixed hunting habit of the population, and the other is... smelling the smell of blood, or hearing the struggle of the prey.

It is said that sharks can smell the smell of blood from far away! They can also hear the sound of struggling for food even further away.”

Dugu Junjie had a look of disbelief on his face: "Sharks are so magical? Oh, I seem to have read a strange story. Shark was mentioned before, but it was not so exaggerated!"

"Reality is sometimes more exaggerated than imagination! Just follow along and you will definitely find something! Dugu, you have also been exposed to some research in the family. You should have an understanding of the concept of 'sonic speed', right?

The propagation speed of sound in water is at least three to five times that in air, and it will also travel farther. And the hearing ability of some animals far exceeds that of humans.

For example, the legendary ‘Listening Beast’ can hear sounds tens of thousands of miles away.

A shark can only listen for thousands of miles, so there’s no need to be so exaggerated, right?”

Dugu Junjie:...How do you know so much?

How far can sound travel? As far as Zhang Hao knows, in the past, infrasound waves were used to detect the internal structure of the earth. Infrasound waves were emitted from one side of the earth and detected from the other side of the earth. In order to detect the internal structure of the earth, infrasound waves can penetrate

The whole earth. And sharks can hear infrasound waves.

Many of the innate abilities of animals are more mysterious than spiritual practice!

However, Zhang Hao is even more certain: The "struggling sound" that can cause sharks to search for food for thousands of miles is probably not as simple as one or two people. It is most likely... a war! And it is a war that takes place on the beach!

Because of Zhang Hao's strength, Dugu Junjie finally had to move in the direction of the shark. But it was agreed that it would not be until tomorrow morning at most.

But when it was late at night, Dugu Junjie opened his eyes wide and saw a fire on the left front!

In the southeast, there were fierce fires rising into the sky, which was obviously a fierce war.
