The race is now at about 3% of the schedule, and the progress can be said to be quite slow, after all, it is a race at sea.
But the quiet period is over.
Just as Kunio mercilessly kicked his good brother and rival, Ali, the captain of Hanazono High School, on the head, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a light source appearing underwater.
The light quickly rose up from the dark seabed.
Seeing this scene, Guoo instinctively felt that something was wrong. However, at this time, the speed of the light source suddenly increased, and the source of the light source also appeared in front of Guoo.
This is an anglerfish, or lantern fish, that is almost twice the size of an adult killer whale.
The light source that Kunio saw was the light-emitting organ hanging on the forehead of the anglerfish.
This oversized anglerfish opened its mouth, revealing a row of sharp teeth, and bit towards Kunio and his group without mercy!
To put it more precisely, this is predation!
The ugly face, which already had the aura of a hellish monster, became even more terrifying as its size was magnified.
But Guofu and his men are obviously not the small shrimps in the mouth of the big fish. Each of them is at the level of a humanoid weapon, and the fighting spirit in their bodies is full and vigorous.
Instead of retreating, Guofu advanced and rushed towards the anglerfish as if he had a jet under his feet.
At the moment when he was about to come into contact with the terrible sharp teeth, Guofu made an emergency change and accurately avoided the extremely powerful bite of the anglerfish.
At the same time, he kicked the anglerfish's gills, which it uses to breathe.
But here comes the problem.
Water is very good at absorbing the force of fists and feet. When humans fight each other, some of the force can penetrate the water, but the damage caused to a sea beast of this size in the water is really limited.
The anglerfish's body shook slightly, and then it twisted its body and swam towards Guofu again.
Just when Kunio wanted to fight back, the anglerfish's luminous organ suddenly emitted an extremely dazzling light, comparable to the white light of a flash bomb.
Guofu was caught off guard and got hit hard. His eyes suddenly turned pale and he could not see anything.
In the water, blind, if it were an ordinary person, he would probably say goodbye immediately.
The pair of eyes of the sea beast anglerfish revealed a kind of pride that was not appropriate for a low-intelligence creature, and then it opened its mouth again and bit towards Guofu.
At this moment, a black key broke through the water flow and accurately penetrated the anglerfish's brain. Lilac blood and the magic blade emerged from the chin.
The monkfish died instantly.
“Fish today!”
Xier pinched her slender waist and looked proud.
Elquet was booed constantly, and the right side applauded.
Looking at the fire on the right side that was being lit using the shipbuilding materials provided by the system, many question marks popped up in May's little head.
Chapter 220: Hundreds of Ways to Build a Ship and Travel
If this whale was a real whale, it would have thrown away these bastards who were making fire on its head.
The pioneers, including the one on the right, had obviously entered an area where sea beasts frequently appeared. The appearance of the anglerfish was just an appetizer. From here on, various marine creatures that were far larger than the original species began to appear frequently.
A carnivorous sea turtle the size of a car.
This thing was grabbed by six players who were very good at swimming by its limbs, head and tail at the same time, and was torn into seven pieces.
A killer crab with a large number of barnacles parasitizing its body, which can cause trypophobia symptoms.
However, even though its body was so huge, the inherent fragility of crabs' joints still existed, and it was quickly crushed from the root, with the crab legs and body perfectly separated.
The barnacles on the crab's body are also much larger than normal, but they are no longer aggressive. After the killer crab is decomposed, it can only wait to die on the spot.
A pitch-black electric eel that is charged with electricity and emits a current exceeding 800 volts.
This thing caused some trouble to the unfortunate Kunio and others. The electric fish and the electric eels generated electricity and they were electrocuted, causing their whole bodies to twitch. However, it had no effect on the leisurely black sperm whale beside them.
The unfortunate ones who were twitching from the electric shock began to sink to the bottom.
You have to know that this is the ocean. Once you lose the ability to move, you will be at the mercy of others and may even drown.
Even if the blood is locked, the stomach will probably swell up like a floating corpse.
However, what surprised Kunio and his group was that the right side, which had been sitting back and watching them being eliminated and had a small grudge with them in the previous scene, actually fished them all out.
Also fished out at the same time was the electric eel whose head was pierced by the black key.
"Shiki, you are too kind. In my opinion, you should just give them a few boards and let them float here."
"Don't say that. Competitions and such aren't that important. Just be happy~"
In response to Xier's suggestion, Youfang smiled while skillfully scraping off the scales and mucus and decomposing the entire electric eel into three parts.
Killing and cutting fish is one of the ways that Youfang trains his knife skills to be precise.
Don’t underestimate the art of decomposing fish, there is a lot of knowledge involved!
Uh, I went off track, come back.
Even though these unlucky guys were their competitors, Youfang still saved them, which caused all the medical angels that were hovering in the sky waiting for these people to be eliminated to fly away.
In fact, there is no reason on the right side, just save it if you want.
Just wait until they recover and then throw them down.
Now the right side's attention is focused on the fish slices.
Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with eating fresh sea fish in its entirety, but I guess only the person on the right can make sashimi by cutting it into 17 pieces.
However, what Youfang did not expect was that his casual action actually won the favor of the top leaders of the three bad universities.
This gang of bad guys fight, smoke, drink, and do all kinds of rebellious things. From a social perspective, they are just a bunch of hooligans who don't study seriously.
But there is only one thing that most of them are following and pursuing.
That is "benevolence and righteousness".
This behavior on the right, which was totally unexpected to them, was obviously in line with the kind of help given out of good intentions without asking for anything in return, or even from a completely opposing position.
Unparalleled benevolence and righteousness!
Well, no matter what other people think, how the Crystal Dome interprets the strange behavior on the right (including but not limited to saving people, killing and eating fish, etc.), at least these bad guys have already figured it out in their minds.
You Fang even wanted to treat them to fish.
Faced with these various sea beasts that are objectively quite powerful, the sperm whale, whose size is comparable to that of sea kings, basically ignored them all. Moreover, these sea beasts obviously have wisdom far beyond their original species and know what to provoke and what not to provoke. The black sperm whale is obviously an object that should not be provoked casually.
Then their targets of attack naturally switched to those who were easier to exploit.
Although this ocean track touched the blind spots of many contestants, the explosive amount of information in modern society has made everyone see some strange things to a certain extent.
Obviously, some players have watched programs such as "Wild Survival" and "Lonely on a Deserted Island".
Even if you have never seen a ship, you should have some idea of its general shape in your mind.
So all kinds of ships, some reliable and some strange, were born from the hands of the contestants.
The most typical raft is made of multiple logs spliced together, with empty gasoline barrels tied to the four corners to increase buoyancy, and wooden sticks made of large banana leaves tied to them as oars.
This is the limit of what most contestants can achieve given their meager knowledge.
But this is also a relatively reliable type. As long as you have strength, materials and ropes, it is not difficult to make these things.
The fact that four people need to ride at the same time is a bit confusing.
In fact, there are still many gentle places in this map. For example, the direction of the sea water always points to the direction of Devil's Island. As long as you get on the boat, you will definitely drift to your destination along the ocean current without any countercurrent.
After all, this is a competition for amateurs rather than veteran sailors.
Ranma was indeed a fool, and his teammates were obviously all draggers, unable to do any delicate manual work. As a result, they simply chose two huge logs that everyone could lie on, combined them together, and went straight into the water.
A team of people carefully lay on the log, but a wave hit them, and the cold sea water sprayed all over Ranma's entire team. The original team of four people instantly turned into a combination of a man, a pig, a cat and a duck.
Ranma, who had transformed into a female form, screamed instinctively. The object of her fear was the slender and graceful white cat in the group.
Even if she is a player, she cannot change her cat phobia, just like the physical weakness BUFF on the right. Unless it is removed by some method, it is permanent and can be considered a character characteristic.
This team is in chaos, and I guess the game won't be able to proceed normally.
In comparison, Emiya's raft is quite ordinary, but it is very large in size.
Interestingly, as King Arthur, Saber needs to be the main power source of this raft.
The specific method is to insert her Contracted Victory Sword directly into the water, and then use the attached Wind King Barrier to generate huge kinetic energy to push the entire raft forward at high speed.
This use of the Wind King's barrier is truly surprising, but one has to admit that the effect is quite good.
The raft feels like a speedboat...
"Salt water will make my sword rust! I refuse!"
This was Saber's excuse at first. Besides, it was too cheap for a king to do such a thing.
Then, she fell in love with him in an instant when Emiya promised to go back and eat French foie gras tomorrow.
An understanding woman.
Izumi Shinichi's Xiaoyou has a complete theory of shipbuilding. His body, which can change at will at the cellular level, can also be transformed into any tool needed.
So Quan Shinichi quickly built a waterwheel boat with a narrow hull and huge wooden waterwheels on both sides.
There are three devices in the boat that can be ridden and pedaled like a bicycle. They are connected to the water wheels on both sides. That is to say, just by pedaling, a force is generated to rotate the water wheels and propel the boat forward.
This is a typical example of technology changing lives, and Izumi Shinichi is already on the road.
There is no need to say much about Liehuo. As usual, he had already set off after making a sailboat that could easily accommodate dozens of people.
He was the first group to set off except for Youfang and the group who went swimming directly. In fact, he was almost catching up with Youfang and his group who were still enjoying BBQ and sashimi.
Fengzi, the real owner of the wind magic tool, converted a large amount of wind, which directly filled the sailboat with full sails and sped up the speed.
A group of people were yelling like crazy on the bow.
Then there is Makoto.
This time he fully utilized his successful training in Liangshanpo.
He used pure muscle to carve out the shape of a small wooden boat on a big tree, and then added a side float at the suggestion of Xiao You who couldn't stand it.
Then, with a rope tied to his body, this guy came to the bow and started freestyle swimming like crazy, and started to speed up while carrying his three girls who were basically there to make up the number.
The water quality is pretty good, Cheng brother~
Simply put, he became the horse pulling the cart.
I always feel like there might be livestock like this when the Dragon Palace travels...
Chapter 221 Most Popular Sports Programs
When Youfang saw the other contestants who were about to rear-end the black sperm whale, he patted the big head of the black sperm whale and increased his speed immediately, leaving the flaming face that was already visible behind him again.
At this time, Shirou's team also came to the front.
The Wind King's barrier is quite useful.
Excited by the current situation, Fengzi wanted to overtake the boat on the right and increased the wind output, which directly blew off the mast of the wooden boat.
Fortunately, the one managing the ship is a guy like Liehuo who can make repairs anytime and anywhere, otherwise they would have been overtaken by the ones behind.
At this time, Kunio and others, who had enjoyed a ride on the boat for a while and had eaten a lot of sashimi, were very conscious and jumped directly off the broad back of the whale.
However, this time the three bad schools did not continue fighting each other. Instead, they formed a team of 12 people to deal with the sea beasts that specifically picked on them.
Look, in this naval battle, except for the two guys Youfang and Liehuo, all the people who were leading in the previous map have disappeared.
This also indirectly shows how weak everyone is in naval warfare.
The leisurely atmosphere ended, and all the players, including the one on the right, began to speed up.
When there is no competitor, it doesn't matter how much time you waste. When there is a competitor, you will naturally have to work harder.
70 minutes, 20% of the distance, and this is the result of everyone trying their best. Compared with land, the speed is indeed much slower.
However, once we got here, the sea area began to change again.
The black sperm whale, which was in the leading position, clearly sensed some larger individuals through the feedback of seabed sound waves. These individuals were not only much larger in size than the sea beasts it had encountered before, but it had begun to lose its fear of the black sperm whale's existence.
