Compared with the ocean in the original world, the ocean in this water world is undoubtedly much smoother. Tang Zhen has been here at least twice and has never seen any big waves.
Most of the time, it is sunny and sunny here, and there is rarely any rain.
If it were in the original world, this would definitely be rare good weather for going out to sea, but for seafarers, this kind of weather has long been accustomed to it.
If there is any storm, the nomads will definitely celebrate with singing and dancing, because then they can take a refreshing bath in fresh water and have the opportunity to collect a large amount of drinking fresh water.
In short, life in the water world is definitely not as poetic as drifting with the tide, but full of dangers and hardships!
At this time, there were more than a dozen garbage boats floating slowly on the boundless sea, chasing a group of aquatic creatures discovered a few days ago.
This jellyfish-like creature is a rare delicacy for sea nomads. Although it is very difficult to catch, once discovered, nomads will not miss it easily!
Food in the water world is rare, especially in this barren area.
Compared to other sea nomads in Water World, most of the nomads here have a hard time, being hungry almost nine out of ten days.
The same is true for drinking water. Although after long-term adaptation, they can drink a small amount of sea water, their bodies will still be damaged.
Therefore, in the water world, there are several items that always maintain high prices, namely plants, sundries, soil, weapons and food!
No matter if you encounter any of them, it is worth these vagrants trying their best to get!
At this moment, there are several young children sitting on one of the garbage boats. Under the leadership of their father, they use the fish bone grinding tools in their hands to continuously throw them into the sea, and wait until they sink to a certain depth. , and then quickly retract the rope.
This method is somewhat similar to anchor fish, but because the number of aquatic organisms is scarce, the harvest rate is also extremely low.
Prior to this, these children had repeated the same actions for several hours, but had never achieved anything.
But even though they were tired and thirsty, these children still didn't complain and seemed quite sensible.
In fact, children of seafarers have learned how to make a living in this water world since they were young. After all, this cruel world will not be lenient to you just because you are young.
When there is a lack of food, it is not uncommon for people to starve to death, but more often than not, they drink too much untreated seawater to satisfy their hunger, which eventually leads to death from poisoning and dehydration!
In a water world where supplies are scarce, not everyone has the tools to distill seawater, so fresh water is equally valuable!
On the garbage boat, a child once again threw the tool in his hand into the water, and then yanked back as usual, but felt that the rope in his hand sank slightly.
The child, who had been listless due to the sun, suddenly had a flash of surprise in his eyes, shouted, and then quickly pulled the rope.
The feeling of struggling and swinging became more and more obvious, and other homeless people also noticed this scene, and they all turned their attention here.
"Wow!"
There was a sound of water coming out, and then a translucent aquatic creature the size of a human head was dragged up by the hook polished with fish bones, struggling in the hands of the child.
Several children nearby saw this, and their faces suddenly showed happy smiles.
Because after catching this prey, as long as they eat sparingly, their family no longer has to worry about food for today and tomorrow.
After all, under normal circumstances, the source of food cannot be guaranteed, and the seafarers cannot have enough to eat at all.
The other nomads were also extremely excited, because through this captured prey, they could be sure that the previous chasing route was not wrong.
As long as you keep working hard, you may be rewarded next time you throw the hook!
But just when these homeless people were cheering up and preparing to continue working, suddenly there seemed to be an unusual sound coming from the distance.
The biggest feature of the water world, apart from the absence of any land, is that it is very quiet, as if this is not the sea, but a huge goldfish tank!
All kinds of anomalies abound!
After hearing the sound, the homeless people immediately became very vigilant and began to look around constantly to determine the source of the abnormal sound.
After all, in addition to the big tribes, there are also water thieves in this water world, and they are all murderous people.
They all prayed secretly in their hearts, hoping that they would never encounter those cruel guys! .
Soon they saw that on the sea in the distance, a huge black shadow appeared, moving slowly on the sea with a frightening momentum.
That kind of terrifying momentum cannot be described in words, and that roaring sound was made by that huge black shadow!
"What the hell is this?"
A seafarer said blankly, with a look of shock on his face.
At this moment, a black dot suddenly jumped from the huge black shadow, and then rushed towards their location.
That roaring sound is getting closer and closer!
Seeing this scene, the group of seafarers felt a chill in their hearts. Then they turned the boat around without hesitation and paddled desperately to escape.
But compared to the fast-moving vehicles, the garbage boats of these nomads were as slow as crawling, so the distance between the two parties quickly shortened.
At this moment, those seafarers with frightened faces had clearly seen the appearance of the enemy who was pursuing them.
I saw that they were all wearing uniform standard armor, with all kinds of strange equipment on their bodies. They were driving a strange ship that sprayed water and quickly surrounded them.
This strange boat can carry two people, drags waves of water from its tail, and is quite fast.
When the seafarers saw this, their faces became even more panicked, and they began to paddle more desperately to escape.
"Bah bang bang!"
At this moment, the seafarers heard a rapid and harsh sound, which caused a series of water waves several meters high to splash on the sea. Even the garbage boat was affected, and debris flew everywhere.
Those seafarers had never seen such a weapon before, and they screamed in fright. They either lay on the boat and refused to get up, or jumped into the sea to escape without hesitation.
"Listen to me, we don't mean any harm, so you don't need to hide. As long as you obey the command, you won't be harmed!"
A monk in battle armor shouted loudly, but his words needed to be translated into a language that these seafarers could understand through a device worn on his chest.
After hearing this shouting, the originally frightened seafarers suddenly raised their heads in confusion and quietly looked at these monks who were full of oppressive aura.
This was the first time they had seen a stranger dressed like this. They only felt that the other party's weapons and equipment were particularly majestic, but the murderous aura emanating from him made people terrified.
After comparing each other's strengths, the nomads immediately gave up their resistance and sat obediently on the garbage boat waiting to be punished.
As for the guys who just jumped into the water to escape, after swimming a certain distance, they were dragged back by ropes!
During this process, the huge black shadow that made a roaring sound also approached the place where everyone was.
It turned out that this was a giant floating island made entirely of steel. It was full of moving figures and various strange objects placed on the edge of the giant floating island, exuding a frightening aura.
Those seafarers were stunned when they looked at the giant floating island in front of them, and could not recover for a long time.
Suddenly there was a sound of mechanical operation, and then a steel platform quickly landed on the giant floating island, which was the same height as the sea surface.
The monks drove the captured sea vagrants onto the platform, and then the platform was quickly raised, sending the vagrants to the top of the floating island.
At the same time, an even more spectacular scene came into the eyes of these seafarers!
