The weather is getting colder and colder. The fleet has sailed north for a month and has entered the Arctic Ocean. Before, they had been traveling north along the coastline of the Nuya City-State, but ten days ago, they crossed the Nuya City-State 6
The end of the earth. By this time, they had traveled more than 16,000 kilometers day and night.
December is already a severe winter, and ice floes are everywhere here. The biting cold wind makes it difficult for people to step out of the cabin. Jiang Xingchen had to order the ship to be lowered to avoid hitting large ice floes.
Since crossing Nuya City-State, the number of monsters in the ocean has increased significantly, and all of them are high-level monsters. Mung Bean and the second-rate swordfish have fought several battles, seriously slowing down the navigation speed.
In the end, Jiang Xingchen had to call Pinky out, which frightened those high-level monsters into running away and not daring to show their heads again.
But it was not without its benefits. The soldiers on the ship ate enough monster meat. Especially the sailors on the cargo ship, who were basically people from the Nuya city-state, were all so happy that they couldn't close their mouths. In their wildest dreams, they never expected to return the favor.
Being able to get high-grade monster meat to eat is a priceless thing. It is estimated that even the big nobles have never eaten it, but I can eat it with open stomach. If those people who don't want to come know it, they will regret it to death.
The butt determines the head. The sailors didn't know the coming danger, and they flew into joy just for a bite of high-grade monster meat. But Jiang Xingchen couldn't laugh at all, and stood on the bow of the ship every day, staring ahead, silent for a long time.
"Xingchen, how are you? Are you here?" Tang Chuxue asked in a low voice next to Jiang Xingchen.
"There are all ice floes here, there must be no ice!" Jiang Xingchen shook his head and said solemnly: "I'm afraid we can't go any further!"
Tang Chuxue frowned, pointed to the sea and asked, "Is it because of these ice floes?"
"Yes!" Jiang Xingchen nodded: "Our ship is not an icebreaker. The further we go, the more ice floes will become. Eventually, the sea will be completely closed, making it impossible to move forward at all!"
"You can't even use high temperature to melt it away?" Tang Chuxue asked.
"There's so much ice, I can't melt it all even if I'm exhausted!" Jiang Xingchen shook his head helplessly.
"But if we don't move forward, how will we arrange our formation?" Tang Chuxue asked.
Jiang Xingchen raised his hand and pointed to the northwest and said: "There is a small island more than fifty kilometers west of here, let's choose there. Although I don't know how far it is from the Demon Lord, this is the only one around here.
Small island.”
"Then we can only do it here!" Tang Chuxue nodded. If there was ice in front of us, it would be difficult to arrange the place even if we found a place.
Immediately, Tang Chuxue issued an order, and the fleet turned around and headed for the small island Jiang Xingchen mentioned.
But just when the fleet was about to turn its course and prepare to move forward, there was a sudden loud cry of phoenix, and a colorful shadow jumped into the sky, instantly transforming into a hundred-meter colorful phoenix.
"What's wrong with Pinky?" Jiang Xingchen and Tang Chuxue were both stunned. Just as they were about to shout out a greeting, they saw a black spot appear on the horizon in the distance, and quickly flew in this direction, getting bigger and bigger.
After a while, the soldiers on the observation deck suddenly shouted: "Sea Eagle, it's a large group of sea eagles, they are approaching us."
Upon hearing the incoming sea hawk, the soldiers on each ship ran towards the machine guns at the bow and stern of the ship.
"Don't move!" Jiang Xingchen shouted to stop the soldiers. With two divine beasts and Tang Chuxue present, there was no need to use thermal weapons.
When the sea eagle approached, Pink screamed and turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the sea eagle.
The sea eagle was also chirping, and dispersed immediately to avoid Pink's attack. But Pink's speed was much faster than them, and he caught up with a sea eagle in one go, and landed a talon on its back.
.
"卍卍!" This sea eagle did not struggle, but just screamed desperately.
"That's not right!" Tang Chuxue raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "There's something wrong with these sea eagles!"
"They are not here to attack us..." Jiang Xingchen also came up with this idea, and then quickly shouted: "Pink, don't kill it!"
Just as Pinky was about to catch the sea eagle to death, she was startled when she heard Jiang Xingchen's order. She looked down and saw Jiang Xingchen making gestures to her.
"What's wrong, boss? These Haiying are enemies!" Pinky was confused, but she had to obey the boss's order and reluctantly let go of Haiying.
As soon as it released its talons, the sea eagle quickly ran away, and then a large circle of sea eagles fell towards the bow of the Ocean.
"Chirp!" Pinky became anxious as soon as she saw it. You guys dare to be so arrogant here and attack the battleship. While shouting, Pinky was about to attack again.
"Pink, don't move!" But at this moment, Tang Chuxue and Jiang Xingchen suddenly spoke at the same time.
When Pinky was stunned, dozens of sea eagles were already parked over the bow of the ship, squawking at Jiang Xingchen and Tang Chuxue.
"They are here to ask for help!" Jiang Xingchen glanced at Tang Chuxue and whispered. Only then did they see clearly that among the group of sea eagles, there were two sea eagles arranged one behind the other, which looked very awkward.
On its back is a very large sea eagle.
"The one being carried seems to be injured!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"I know! This sea eagle was injured by me!" Tang Chuxue smiled, and she recognized it. The sea eagle being carried on her back was the one who injured her before and betrayed the third commander.
Only.
"You were injured!" Jiang Xingchen also laughed.
"That's the information it provided. The man in black we caught... I let him go later. But it seemed that he was seriously injured and came to us for help again!" Tang Chuxue explained.
The corner of Jiang Xingchen's mouth twitched, and he cursed in his heart. It looked like he was seriously injured. You don't know how serious your attack was!
"Forget it, don't embarrass them!" Jiang Xingchen couldn't bear it, and waved to the sea eagle, asking them to put down the injured one, and then prepared to go back to get the dragon's blood.
"Wait!" Tang Chuxue stopped Jiang Xingchen and asked loudly: "Why are we saving you?"
"噍卍!" Several sea eagles shouted, their wings pointed north and kept flapping!
Jiang Xingchen's eyes lit up, he raised his thumb at Tang Chuxue, and whispered: "It seems to have gained something!"
Tang Chuxue nodded slightly, and then said: "Let it down! Pinky, let them lead the way, go see what there is?"
Pink nodded and screamed fiercely at the sea eagle.
Haiying is also a high-level monster with very high intelligence. Naturally, he understood what Tang Chuxue meant and immediately sent three of them to lead Pink and fly north.
The huge body of the sea eagle was placed on the deck, and it suddenly occupied a large area. Jiang Xingchen was amazed at this moment. In his understanding, eagles are all solitary, but he did not expect that sea eagles live in groups.
He took out the dragon's blood from the cabin and put a drop into the sea eagle's mouth. The holy medicine for healing monsters was very effective, and the effect was immediately apparent. In just over twenty minutes, it stood up.
At this time, a pink shout came from afar, Tang Chuxue raised her head and said, "You're back so soon!"
Jiang Xingchen showed a look of surprise and said loudly: "Mercury ball!" (To be continued.) 8
