Golden Fishery

1632. Target Blue Hole

After seeing the traces of the sperm whales, Qin Shiou planned to control them to take them away and let them leave the Daqin Fishing Ground, at least from the core area.

Sperm whales are big-bellied men who can eat 1/25 of their own weight in food every day. They don't like to eat small fish, shrimps and seaweed like baleen whales. They like to eat big fish, such as cod.

This is related to their body structure. Whales are warm-blooded animals, and their average body temperature is low among mammals, which is lower than that of humans. They bathe in the sea all their lives. Although the ocean environment is relatively stable, even in tropical seas, the surface water temperature is less than 30 degrees Celsius, and the water temperature in cold seas near the poles is not much higher than zero degrees Celsius.

And even in the equatorial waters in midsummer, in the deep waters, the water temperature is only about four to five degrees Celsius or even zero degrees Celsius. In this way, the water temperature is likely to be significantly lower than the body temperature of the sperm whale, and the heat of the whale body can easily escape to the cold water. Moreover, the heat transfer rate of water is very fast, 25 times faster than that of air. In addition, whales swim continuously in the water, which means that water flows through the surface of the whale body at a certain speed, and the heat dissipation is faster.

Because when sperm whales are in cold waters, they must exercise continuously throughout the day to increase their metabolic rate to generate heat to maintain their body temperature. In this regard, they are the same as bluefin tuna, even when they sleep, they are not completely still. However, bluefin tuna is due to impact breathing, and sperm whales are for exercise to obtain heat.

In this way, similar to bluefin tuna, sperm whales need to eat constantly to ensure that they have enough motivation to exercise, otherwise they will not starve to death, but will freeze to death, even though they have the thickest fat layer among marine cetaceans.

Qin Shiou didn't know when these sperm whales came to the fishing ground. This population is estimated to consume 20 tons of sea fish every day. It's okay to eat ordinary fish, but it's a pity to eat fish cultivated by Poseidon's energy.

In addition, another reason for taking away the sperm whales was that he didn't want these behemoths to fight hand-to-hand with giant monsters. Sperm whales that could be abused by one-on-one giant monsters couldn't find the north, but group fights of more than two dozen were not necessarily the case.

Nor did he want trolls hunting sperm whales. After all, this behemoth is also an advanced marine life with certain wisdom, and he also needs the help of these sperm whales to find the true meaning of ambergris.

Sea God's Heart needs to absorb ambergris to evolve, but that is not ambergris in the traditional sense. When Qin Shiou got that thing for the first time, he went to buy this medicinal material.

There are traditional Chinese medicine stores in Canada. In traditional Chinese medicine, ambergris is considered a precious traditional Chinese medicine, which can be used to treat symptoms such as cough, dyspnea, and abdominal pain. So they can be found in traditional Chinese medicine stores. Qin Shiou bought them and found that the so-called ambergris was not the ambergris he wanted.

At that time, he asked the old Chinese doctors what was going on with ambergris, because he paid a lot of money to ask, and an old doctor told the truth, saying that they didn't know what was going on with ambergris.

One theory of scientific research is that ambergris is a waxy substance that occasionally forms in the intestines of sperm whales. Sperm whales have an unusual hobby for giant squid. They prey on giant squid and eat it by tearing it up with their teeth. Instead, it will be brought to the surface, where the sudden change in sea pressure will weaken the giant squid, and then swallow it in one gulp.

If giant squid are eaten whole like this, they cannot digest the squid’s parrot, which is made of shell material. Later, the parrot enters the small intestine, and after a long period of time, it is soaked in digestive juice to form a viscous dark substance. In the end, the sperm whale died or these substances were excluded by coincidence, and cooled and condensed into a block, which became ambergris.

Qin Shiou wanted to take these sperm whales to No. 3 fishing ground or No. 2 fishing ground. I believe that these whales must have eaten a lot of giant squid after living for so many years. There should be substances digested by parrots in the small intestine. He wants to take out some of this substance, and then see if the ambergris he needs is the mysterious substance in the small intestine of the sperm whale.

Sperm whales are on a rampage. The giant monsters went head-on. Qin Shiou was just about to control the whale group to take them away, but found that the sperm whales did not want to fight the giant monsters. After finding each other, their group dispersed violently, bypassing the giant monsters from up, down, left, and right. Still swimming towards the east.

The troll swung its tentacles and made several attacks. But in the end, they did not encounter the sperm whale. These giants seemed to know its strength and avoided its attack range.

This made Qin Shiou a little puzzled, how could the sperm whales let go of such a delicacy as the giant monster? Perhaps the giant monster is huge and powerful, but the large number of sperm whales still has an advantage, so there is no need to avoid the battle.

Afterwards, the group of sperm whales swam to the east for a certain distance, and under the leadership of the leader, they adjusted their swimming direction and swam to the north.

The giant monster's fast jet of water chased after it. The swimming speed of the sperm whale was considered fast among whales, reaching 20 kilometers per hour, but in this respect it was not as good as the giant monster. A speed of forty kilometers per hour.

After chasing after them, the giant monster did not chase and kill the sperm whales, but chose another direction to avoid these giants, and swam towards the northeast in a straight line.

Qin Shiou roughly judged the location. The giant monster and the whale group seemed to be heading towards the deep sea blue hole where the black-covered giant worm was located.

Suddenly he figured it out, the giant monster didn't stay near the blue hole just now to beat the black-capped giant worm for food, but to guard the giant worm there, and the sperm whale group seemed to want to prey on the giant worm.

Sure enough, after the giant monster first arrived at the blue hole, it floated above the blue hole. I don't know if the black-armored giant worm has suffered from it and is afraid of it, or if both parties have the energy of the sea god in their bodies, they didn't come out to attack the giant monster. , hiding in the blue hole to play aestivation tricks.

After more than an hour, the sperm whales rushed over this distance, facing the giant monster at a distance of five or six hundred meters.

Neither side launched an attack. Although the King Squid and the Sperm Whale are mortal enemies, the Sperm Whale is not at the forefront of the King Squid’s recipe. The reason why they fight to the death when encountering the Sperm Whale is more active protection.

The giant monster likes to eat sea fish, shrimp, crab, and scallops that contain the energy of the sea god. It doesn't even look at the meat of these sperm whales in front of it, so it doesn't need to take the initiative to attack the sperm whales.

After the improvement of Poseidon's energy, it is no longer a 24k pure stupid squid. It knows that it is awesome, but the more than 20 sperm whales on the other side are even more awesome. If it attacks rashly, it may have to cut off its claws again.

The sperm whales were also hesitant, and the eldest brother wandered forward several times to test, while the giant monster sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, with ten tentacles constantly flying around, waiting for them to approach and play gophers.

The two sides confronted each other for a while, the eldest brother opened his big mouth and shook it left and right several times, the group of whales behind him separated and approached the giant monster from left and right. (To be continued.)
