Dragon's Origin

Chapter 642: At Sea (Part 2)

“Mei'er, you've seen a lot. How far out to sea can the fishermen from Qiu and Tang countries go at most?” Wang Sheng's own understanding might not be comprehensive enough. Wang Sheng sincerely asked Mei'er for advice: “Rose, have you seen any experts who have gone out to sea, and how far can they go at most?”

“Ordinary fishermen by the sea can only go out one or two hundred li(里: approximately 500 meters).” Mei'er had traveled to various countries when she was the young owner of Baoqing Yu Tang, and she also knew about the Qiu and Tang countries, so she answered without thinking.

“There are very few experts in Worry-Free City who go out to sea.” Rose also followed Mei'er's answer and said, “A few who came back alive said every time that they would rather die than go there again.”

“Why?” Wang Sheng asked puzzledly: “Is it because they don’t have good seagoing ships, or are they afraid of wind and waves or something?”

“The seagoing ships are definitely not very good.” Mei'er knew what Wang Sheng was thinking now, and quickly replied: “They can’t withstand big wind and waves, but the main reason is still because of demon beasts/monsters.”

“ demon beasts/monsters?” Wang Sheng was used to hearing about the Age of Discovery on Earth, and he had also experienced similar training, but he was all about driving ships and submarines, and never considered the reason of animals. Hearing Mei'er say this, he realized again that he was in a Yuanhun world full of demon beasts/monsters.

Without more reminders from Mei'er and Rose, Wang Sheng immediately understood the reason. Even the demon beasts/monsters on land can grow so ferocious in the Thousand Absolute Land, so one can imagine how terrifying the demon beasts/monsters in the ocean are.

In the ocean on Earth, because of the existence of buoyancy, the legs do not have to bear the weight of the body, and the largest marine animal can reach tens of meters in length, such as blue whales. This is still what humans have observed and can confirm. As for those so-called soft animals with no limit to growth, such as giant octopuses, giant squids, and colossal squids, it is said that they can grow to an outrageous extent.

The Norwegian sea monster is a legendary giant soft animal, but it is only a legend in Northern Europe. Maybe the ancients saw it, but no one can confirm it.

That was still on Earth. In this Yuanhun world, with the existence of spiritual energy, who knows how big the terrifying creatures in the ocean can grow? The Great Ape King is big enough, right? In the sea, it is just a small thing at most.

Wang Sheng can completely understand why the experts in this world don't go to the far sea. It's too normal. No matter how powerful an expert is, if they encounter a demon beasts/monsters the size of a blue whale, and there is not much to borrow from at sea, is there any other possibility besides death?

“How did Zhu Xingsheng hide the treasure so far out at sea?” Rose and Mei'er also understood Wang Sheng's intention in asking that question, and looked at the mark on the map with surprise.

Without long-distance sailing ships and no shipping routes, how did Zhu Xingsheng do it? It's incredible.

“Flying mounts!” Wang Sheng had to remind the two women. If the waterway is not accessible, doesn't Zhu Xingsheng have flying mounts? Flying in the air, what can the most powerful sea demon beasts/monsters do?

The two women were stunned for a moment, and then relieved. Yes, since there are mounts that can carry people to fly, crossing hundreds of li(里: approximately 500 meters) of sea is definitely no problem.

“No!” Mei'er suddenly remembered something again, and frowned: “Even if there are flying mounts, flying hundreds or thousands of li(里: approximately 500 meters) will require rest. This distance cannot be flown over.”

The matter of flying mounts was still news sent by the Grand Master of the Old Gentleman Temple. After the group of old shopkeepers surrendered with more than a dozen flying mounts, the Old Gentleman Temple accepted the batch of flying mounts, and naturally learned some characteristics of the flying mounts from the mouths of the ten-odd barbarian animal trainers.

The flying mounts controlled by the Shanyue Kingdom are all flying demon beasts/monsters from the sixth to seventh level, and there are three types, all of which are birds. The one that flies the farthest can only fly 500 li(里: approximately 500 meters) at a time, and must rest for at least a quarter of an hour before continuing to fly with people. It is said that the one that flew the farthest once was a seventh-level flying demon beasts/monsters, and only flew 900 li(里: approximately 500 meters) with a animal trainer on its back, almost collapsing. If you carry a few more people, this distance will be shortened.

demon beasts/monsters also have cultivation levels. Big Snow has never had such problems. Wang Sheng and the old Taoist priest riding Big Snow, every time they had fun, it was more than flying thousands of li(里: approximately 500 meters), and it could be farther. Despise these not-so-good flying demon beasts/monsters.

“There are several ways.” Wang Sheng stroked his chin and pondered for a while and said: “Bring enough planks or bamboo in the a magical ring for storage, and when you are tired of flying, take them out and assemble a small boat or raft on the sea. Bring more, it will definitely allow the flying demon beasts/monsters to rest on it.”

After speaking, Wang Sheng saw Mei'er and Rose looking at him like they were looking at a monster, and couldn't help looking left and right at himself, as if there was nothing strange about him? He couldn't help but ask: “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Master!” Wang Sheng's appearance of looking left and right just now made Mei'er and Rose laugh out loud. Mei'er was laughing so much that she couldn't speak. Rose still forced a smile and replied to Wang Sheng: “In the vast sea, who knows what unknown dangers there are? Those fishermen who survived the far sea said that as soon as you go out to sea for more than a hundred li(里: approximately 500 meters), a terrifying sea monster will appear at any time. I don't know where they are hiding underwater.”

“Master, your small boat or raft is probably not assembled yet, so you have to face the attack of one or a group of fierce sea monster.” Rose continued: “Master, you may still be able to hold your breath, but the breath of those flying demon beasts/monsters is definitely the best target to attract those sea monster. Flying lower may be trouble, and if you want to fall on the sea, then you are really dead.”

“Yes!” Mei'er took over the conversation: “No matter how good or strong the big ship is, it is vulnerable in front of those sea monster. It is said that a fisherman once saw a huge tentacle more than 200 zhang(丈: approximately 3.3 meters) long on the sea, with a large crab at least ten zhang(丈: approximately 3.3 meters) in diameter wrapped around it. When it was slapped into the water, their fishing boat, which was ten li(里: approximately 500 meters) away, was almost overturned by the waves.”

Flying mounts don't work either? Wang Sheng looked at the not-so-good map, racking his brains thinking.

After a while, Rose saw Wang Sheng's pondering action and couldn't help but open her mouth and said: “Why don't you, Master, I will go and interrogate Zhu Shaodong again? Maybe Zhu Xingsheng told him something about this picture before, and there may be other secrets in it.”

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

“No need!” Wang Sheng shook his head: “If he uses this to exchange for his life, Mei'er will be difficult to do.”

Turning to look at Mei'er, Wang Sheng gave her a reassuring look: “Don't worry, I have a way.”

At worst, just go find Big Snow, one or two thousand li(里: approximately 500 meters), for Big Snow, is this a thing?
