Chapter 453 Head-to-head confrontation!

Chapter 453 Head-to-head confrontation!

The vast lake.

The large group of strange fish explored steadily towards the south, and as time went by, their numbers grew larger and larger.

A small number of them fell behind slowly, their bodies covered with wounds, some from blunt objects, some from sharp objects, and some even had bits of metal fragments stuck in their plate armor.

In the battle with the frog patrol, the Ironhead Fish scout team did not gain much advantage and even suffered a few casualties.

The big frog equipped with new weapons was unexpectedly ferocious.

Among the four pillars, the ironhead fish, who had always been the best at fighting, was actually at a disadvantage, and both sides suffered losses.

Tie Xiong, whose plate armor on his head was shattered into three pieces, held up his dizzy head and carefully surveyed the terrain.

"Continue heading south. I remember there is a canyon crack 80 miles ahead. Frog patrols often hang out in this area. The location of the anomaly is very likely to be there!"

……

The strange fish advanced vigorously.

Several high-ranking officials of the Hebo Institute are holding friendly talks with the Frog Tribe and the Dragon Tribe.

After drawing the ink array, Liang Qu, who had gained the power, bathed in the setting sun, facing the lake.

He rested his arms on the railing of the boat, gazing at the flying seabirds, while happily eating fried fish and rice.

After a few days out, he found that the cook on the ship was only good at cooking ordinary meals, neither good nor bad, but he was surprisingly good at cooking fish.

The head and tail of fresh ox-horn pomfret are shaved off, leaving only the thick and large meat section in the middle.

The shaved fish bones are fried and roasted until crispy and charred, then put into the pot to make soup. The fish meat is slightly fried, and after the fat comes out, it is minced meat and mixed with rice, with less water, and steamed until it is hard.

Finally, pour the golden fish bone soup on top and cover it with a layer of fried crispy fish skin. It tastes extremely sweet and fresh!

Rice soaked in soup is not good for digestion, but it tastes good.

Due to the limited freezing level, the vegetables and meat stored in the ice cellar gradually wilt. Only the fish are caught every day, which is fresh enough and more delicious.

He bit off half of the fish skin and immersed the other half in the soup, absorbing the fish juice and making it chewy. Liang Qu ate the rice in big mouthfuls.

Wow!

Several sounds of water were heard.

Xu Yuelong, Wei Lin, and Zuo Heng emerged from the water one after another, grabbed the ropes thrown from the boat, got on board, and gathered everyone.

Liang Qu and his two or three mouthfuls of food cleaned up the food, put away the empty plates and went forward to join in the fun.

"Done?"

"It's done!" Xu Yuelong took off his bun, wrung out his hair, and threw it back. "It's easier than I thought. The Dragon Clan basically obeys the elders and has no objections. It will take them some time to prepare the supplies, and it just so happens that our Lao Bing hasn't arrived yet."

"What about the frog tribe?"

"Same, the southern frogs are easier to talk to than expected. After all, they get exactly the same share, so it doesn't matter who they work with. The leader is a large yellow-skinned spotted frog, I estimate it to be at the peak of the Great Martial Master level.

He is quite powerful, saying that he is a guerrilla general of the frog tribe, and he is perhaps only one step away from becoming a great demon. But for some reason, the weapons used by the frog tribe are a bit strange... they are all anchors."

Xu Yuelong paused and looked at Liang Qu.

Liang Qu scratched his head and pretended to be surprised: "Anchor?"

"As for the 'mountain anchor' you invented, almost all frogs have it. It seems to have become their standard weapon, just like our black water fork. It's made of all kinds of materials. Forget it. Maybe the frogs saw our anchor and thought it was novel and interesting."

Xu Yuelong changed the subject, "Zhongshi, go call all our people over, give them badges one by one, and form a team after receiving the badges. Our mission is to patrol the north-eastern part of the valley with the dragon people to block the vanguard of the ironhead fish."

"it is good!"

Ran Zhongshi turned and left, picked up the big hammer and struck the cloud board.

Many soldiers and personnel gathered quickly.

"Everyone, come and get your badges! One for each person, and you must not lose them! If you lose them, you will need three additional people to guarantee you before you can board the ship. If any accident occurs, you will be held jointly responsible! Do you understand?"

"understand!"

"Okay, line up and get them! One piece per person, no proxy allowed! You need to register your name!"

Liang Qu approached his master.

"Is this waist badge for the anti-ghost mother religion?"

Yang Dongxiong nodded: "It's not expensive to make it with spiritual wood, but it's rare and hard to find. It's hard to imitate it in a short time just by relying on the materials.

The Monster Hunting Division and the Three Law Divisions have a large number of people. Although they cooperate with each other at ordinary times, the subordinates seldom meet each other and have limited mutual acquaintance, which makes it easy for others to take advantage of them. Making a waist badge is convenient for distinguishing between enemies and friends."

Liang Qu nodded.

Frogs and dragon people do not need similar tokens, and it is difficult to change their race by disguising themselves.

The men on the ten large ships were different and had no difference in appearance from the Ghost Mother Sect.

Liang Qu received a waist badge with the numbers 1023 on the front and a few decorations, nothing else.

The other family members were treated the same way.

Distribution completed.

"Okay!" Ran Zhongshi stood on the platform, stretched out a hand and clenched it into a fist. "Now, according to the first number on the badge, everyone will gather on the corresponding ship! This ship is number one, and the next ones are number two, three, four, five..."

The crowd was in a mess, like headless flies at first, but soon they came to the corresponding boats as required. Stand still.

Liang Qu looked around.

There were only colleagues from the Hebo Institute on both sides. The team leader was Xu Yuelong, and the master and senior brothers and sisters were not seen.

"Patrol in groups of two! The odd-numbered ones are the main ones, and the even-numbered ones are the deputy ones. Follow them!"

Two teams per group?
Liang Qu looked back.

Water birds fly low and the setting sun shines brightly.

The deck was covered in a layer of deep red, and long slanting shadows swayed and overlapped.

Xu Zishuai on the second boat jumped onto the railing and waved at him. Lu Gang nodded slightly. Hu Qi looked at his badge, chatted with Changsong and others, noticed Liang Qu's gaze, and raised his hand with several senior brothers.

Liang Qu grinned.

Hey!
Together again.

Since the incident with the mountain ghost, I haven't really acted together with my fellow brothers.

Water birds flew between the masts and headed towards the vast lake with its undulating golden skies.

"Take everything, life-saving things."

Ran Zhongshi picked up the medicine barrel and walked across the deck to distribute the pills.

"Three bottles per person, healing pills, energy-restoring pills, and water-repellent pills. Make sure you read the names carefully so you don't take the wrong ones at the critical moment. If you need more, pay for them yourself. If you have any special needs, tell me."

Every collective action involves a huge expense in logistics.

I guess I’ll put a little bit of the 500,000 taels I earned from selling ice into this.

Liang Qu held the medicine bottle in his hand and put the pills into his own braces one by one.

A tense and solemn atmosphere permeated silently.

Ran Zhongshi jumped onto the mast and shouted loudly.

“Warriors at the level of Benma and below should stay on the boat as much as possible, avoid entering the water, and follow orders. You can use the boat crossbow to assist in the attack.

You must go into the water and hold a water-repellent pill in your mouth first. It can help you prolong your underwater activity time and you will be safe until it completely melts.

When we encounter a northern fish, our main focus is to injure the enemy. Fight if you can, run if you can't. Call for help, call for frogs, and don't get carried away. Even if you kill the fish, you won't get any military merit!

So don't think about fighting desperately, save your energy and strength! Try to control the intensity of the fight, and at the critical moment, hold on a little longer, it can save your life!"

After Ran Zhongshi finished speaking, Xu Yuelong jumped out to take over.

“I emphasize again that our purpose here is to join forces with the Dragon People and the Frog Tribe to force the Northern Fish to be unable to compete for the Vision Inspiration!
So we should surround them but not break them. We only need to weaken them, not destroy them! We can’t destroy them with our limited manpower. Even if we do, we will have to pay a heavy price. It’s not worth it! It will also attract the big monster to attack! Then the situation will be complicated! "

Most people responded that it was acceptable, but there were many lazy people in the family, so the responses were sparse.

Ran Zhongshi and Xu Yuelong ignored them all. They were mixed together and acted in unison. After a few words of explanation, ten large ships set off and cooperated with the porpoises to approach the east side of the valley.

Night falls.

The boat was quiet and dark.

Lighting a fire on the water will not reveal the underwater situation and will easily attract the enemy's attention.

Have a brief exchange with the Dragon people you meet and determine the method of cooperation.

Ran Zhongshi stayed on the boat with some of the porpoises.

Xu Yuelong and Yang Dongxiong led the two groups of wolf smoke and a group of porpoises, got on a small boat and followed the dragon people to search for the traces of the strange fish.

The dragon people are responsible for underwater patrols, and they are responsible for following on the water.

Once a situation occurs, we will be ready to go into the water to provide military support and make the best use of each other's advantages.

The two sides took the initiative to interact.

Liang Qu, who was following his master, soon encountered a group of ironhead fish pioneers.

"It's much bigger than the ironhead fish we encountered last time..."

The light underwater is dim.

Liang Qu hid behind a rock with his golden eyes ignited, and was able to clearly observe the appearance of the strange fish. Each one was about the same size as the fat catfish.

The leader is even more peculiar. It looks completely different from ordinary ironhead fish. Instead, it has hands and feet and a big tail!

A demon that transforms into a human!

Liang Qu suddenly thought of the sturgeon monster he had met.

The one in front of me is obviously much more skilled and not a half-baked player.

"Master, Brother Yue Long, shall we go up?"

Yang Dongxiong looked at Xu Yuelong. He was an even number, so the decision-making power lay with the team leader.

Xu Yuelong didn't hesitate for too long.

"Go ahead. It's just a fish monster, why not go ahead? Weaken it as soon as possible, the sooner we defeat it, the easier it will be."
