The mysterious key obtained by accident caused many monks to speculate.
They are all secretly wondering, what is the use of the key, and what kind of lock can it open?
Looking through the entire wooden boat, there is no lock at all. The key is definitely not used here.
It's just that if Tang Zhen didn't tell anyone, it would be impossible for anyone to know.
"You keep the key, don't lose it."
Tang Zhen looked at the old man and entrusted him with important tasks, but in fact he was diverting the monks' attention.
I nodded with a very serious expression, obviously believing Tang Zhen's explanation.
This was just a small matter, and was quickly thrown aside by the monks, who continued to slide the bronze oars desperately.
Time is life, and at this moment, this sentence is perfectly reflected.
If you run too slowly and are overtaken and surrounded by black monsters, your end will be miserable.
At Tang Zhen's request, the dismantled wooden ships were processed and a batch of wood was obtained.
The wood was hollowed out and combined with a bronze oar to create a special throwing weapon.
Throw it into the ocean and it will detonate in a short time, causing damage to monsters.
The design structure is a bit crude, but under limited conditions, it can only be done to this extent.
But even so, it still attracted sighs from a group of monks.
Until now, they haven't come up with a solution to the problem, so what qualifications do they have to be picky about Tang Zhen's weapons?
Without these weapons, when the monster catches up, the only option left is to fight tooth and nail.
While the bomb was being made, the monks rowing behind had already seen a black shadow flashing in the sea water.
This unusual sight immediately aroused his alertness.
"There's something in the sea, right under the wooden boat!"
The monk said loudly, and in the process of reminding his companions, he re-strengthened the chains tied to his body.
By this time, the monks had understood the purpose of the iron chain, which was to prevent themselves from falling into the sea.
If it were driving normally, with the monk's balance ability, it would definitely not be possible for him to fall into the sea.
But if you are attacked by a monster, it is impossible to predict what will happen in the chaotic situation.
The most likely danger is to accidentally fall into the ocean in a panic.
When this happens, having a chain to pull on is far more effective than a life-saving straw.
As soon as the chain was fixed, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a gloomy face staring at him in the ocean.
There was endless malice in his pale eyes.
"not good!"
There was something bad in his mind, and in the next moment, the monster rushed out of the sea and rushed towards the monk fiercely.
"You bastard, go to hell!"
Compared to the first time they were attacked, the monks on the flat-bottomed boat were already mentally prepared.
They knew there were monsters and could catch up with the fleet and attack at any time, so they didn't panic even if they found monsters.
Without any fuss, he swung his bronze oar towards the monster.
This kind of ancient artifact of unknown origin is not only exquisite in shape and decoration, but also has considerable lethality.
Under the monk's swing, it was packed with great power and slashed hard on the monster's body.
No screams were heard, no blood was seen, but the monster's head had been chopped off directly.
The monster's headless body fell silently into the ocean, making no sound at all.
The monk didn't have time to breathe, as another monster appeared and attacked him again.
The monks could only continue fighting and could not summon their companions to help, because at this moment they were also entangled by monsters.
The monsters that were chasing madly jumped out of the sea one after another and attacked the monks.
The monks waved bronze oars, each occupying a position, and the flat-bottomed wooden boat was blocked by water.
Although the monster was fierce, it was suppressed by the defense of a group of monks.
It was impossible to board a flat-bottomed wooden boat.
During this period, there were some monks who were responsible for roaming support. If any monks were entangled by monsters, they would immediately come forward to rescue them with bronze oars.
At the beginning of the fight, the monster was successfully suppressed and could not take any advantage.
The monsters that were chopped to pieces by the bronze oars fell into the ocean one after another. Perhaps because their bodies were damaged, their movement speed would be much slower.
While fighting the monster, there were still monks sliding the oars, trying to escape the monster's pursuit.
This is what must be done. If you don't escape as soon as possible, more and more monsters will catch up until the punt is completely surrounded.
At that point, unless you grow wings, you will have no chance of escaping.
But even so, the pressure faced by the monks is gradually increasing.
Just because as time passed, more monk corpses completed the transformation and joined the pursuit.
The number of monsters that were killed and maimed was only a small part of them, and it was not enough to have any impact on the monsters.
It can be predicted that as time goes by, the situation of the monks will become more and more dangerous.
"I can't hold it anymore. Can I use that weapon?"
A monk shouted loudly. His body had been dragged by the monster and was being pulled towards the ocean.
Fortunately, there were chains wrapped around his body to secure him to the boat, otherwise he would have been in misfortune at this moment.
The monk responsible for roaming support helped chop the monster into pieces, while he turned back and shouted loudly to Tang Zhen.
"Hold on a little longer, the monsters are too scattered now and are not suitable for attacking!"
Tang Zhen waved the bronze oar, killing several monsters that jumped on the boat, and said in a calm but clear voice.
After hearing Tang Zhen's answer, the monk gritted his teeth and continued to turn around and fight the monster.
As the commander, Tang Zhen is responsible for controlling the overall situation and will definitely launch an attack at the right time.
Since he said the time has not come yet, he can only continue to persist.
The same is true for other monks. Although dangers are everywhere at the moment, it is still not the most dangerous time.
The number of weapons is limited, so they must be used at the most appropriate time to maximize their lethality.
If you just throw away all your weapons when you encounter danger, what should you do next?
Therefore, obeying the command and persisting in fighting as much as possible is what they should do.
In addition, in this case, you must not mess up your position or have many doubts about the commander, as that will only make the situation worse.
Apparently all the monks on the ship knew this taboo, which saved Tang Zhen a lot of trouble.
Otherwise, in this case, he is likely to use the method of killing one person to serve as a warning to others, thereby maintaining his authority.
Although that was effective, it was also likely to have the opposite effect and make the monks hostile to Tang Zhen.
If you can't do it, naturally try to avoid it.
His eyes kept scanning the sea, and Tang Zhen saw all the monsters swimming in the sea.
When these chasing monsters gathered together inadvertently, Tang Zhen decisively issued the order.
"Attack, twenty-seven feet at the stern!"
The old man, who was holding a specially made weapon and holding burning charcoal, heard the words and immediately lit the fuse rolled with cloth strips.
Following the position marked by Tang Zhen, he swung out the bronze oar like a small rocket.
Just like a ruler, the landing place was exactly the same, and the bomb fell into the water silently.
The next moment, there was a loud noise and a column of water rose into the sky.
