There was a panic on the crab fishing boat. Several hooks with ropes hanging on them were thrown onto the crab pots and hooked them tightly. Six or seven people desperately pulled the ropes on the hooks. However, the huge pure steel crab pot Coupled with the weight of the two people inside, it was impossible for them to pull it. The crab fishermen screamed at the top of their lungs. Someone hurriedly fixed the cable rope to the side of the ship, and then planned to use a winch to hoist the crab pot onto the ship. But the cable broke just now, and the broken upper half of the cable was winched into the gap by the high-power diesel winch. It was entangled countless times at a time and became stuck in a dead knot. Where can it be used?

I watched a few minutes pass by. This was the Bering Sea. The seawater temperature was close to freezing point. If a person was soaked in the seawater, even if he was wearing cold-proof clothing, 10 minutes would be enough for someone to die of hypothermia.

"Come on, save people!" Ling Hao shouted, but Shi Si was actually already rushing to the crab boat.

In strong winds and waves, it is very dangerous for ships to get close to each other. Even if the two ships are twenty meters apart, a wave may push the two ships together. The only relatively safe way to get close is to rely on the driver's excellent boating skills to let the ship pass by. If you want to save people, you can only rely on this short few dozen seconds. This is simply impossible for an ordinary person to accomplish. task.

However, Ling Hao was not an ordinary person, and Shi Si, who was driving the boat, was not an ordinary driver either. The engine of the "Marian" roared, and it quickly approached the crab fishing boat from behind through a gorgeous turn. Ling Hao shouted low, and the dark golden light all over his body surged. The dragon-arc sword glowed like blood, and instantly turned into a three-foot-long sword. A set of operations was as smooth as clouds and water. Others were not surprised. Only Old Peter stood beside Zhuxin and sighed: "Congratulations, Miss Cheng, your boyfriend is the last 'Super Saiyan' in the universe."

Zhu Xin was not in the mood to deal with this idiot. She frowned and shouted, "Ling Hao! What are you doing?!"

"Do you even need to ask? Of course it's to save people!" Ling Hao blinked his innocent little eyes and pretended not to understand Zhu Xin's meaning at all. At this moment, the two ships had already crossed each other amidst the screams of the crews on both sides. Before Zhu Xin could say anything else, Ling Hao jumped directly out of the side of the ship, leaped about five or six meters horizontally, and landed on the crab pot on the water. .

The crew members on both sides exclaimed again, and Ling Hao slashed down with several swords in the air. The sword's light struck the steel wire mesh of the crab pot as if it were cutting a cake. The steel wire mesh was easily cut into a huge triangular opening. At this moment, Ling Hao had landed firmly on the crab pot. He inserted the dragon arc into his waist, then bent down and lifted out the two dying crab catchers from the crab pot one by one, and then let out a loud shout. , he actually forcibly threw the two big men, who weighed nearly 200 kilograms, more than four meters high like throwing sacks, directly onto the deck of the crab fishing boat. Then, while everyone was stunned, he made another vertical leap, crossing a distance of five or six meters to the "Marian" again. He was able to climb onto the railing at the stern of the latter's ship, twisting his waist and flipping up. After getting off the deck, he finally turned around and waved goodbye with a smile in the direction of the crab boat, as if he was pretending to be a thunderbolt.

In the blink of an eye, the two ships were drifting away. The crab fishermen went to rescue their companions, but everyone on the "Marian" stared at Ling Hao as if they were looking at a monster. Although everyone knows that Ling Hao's skills are good, there is a range of skills. A person who can fight ten people is called a master. If he can fight dozens of people, he is a master. If someone can defeat ten thousand people, Is that human being? What Ling Hao just did was beyond the scope of human common sense and was simply not something humans could do. In the past, the name "Zhenhai Longhu" only represented his unique life experience to the people around Ling Hao. Everyone did not feel that there was much difference between Ling Hao and themselves, but now these four words have already appeared in his name. Different meanings have formed in everyone's mind. Perhaps this is a gap in life levels. No matter how hard you train and study, you will never be able to do what Ling Hao can do with his movements. A sense of reverence and distance arose spontaneously, and everyone looked at Ling Hao in a different way.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Ling Hao looked at everyone in confusion.

At this moment, it seemed that the surging waves had calmed down. After a long silence, Zhuxin spoke first. She asked meaningfully: "I want to know whether the man I plan to marry is a human being."

Ling Hao was stunned and laughed awkwardly: "This is a big joke. Of course I am a human being. Even if I am a dragon household in Zhenhai, I still marry a wife and have children. Otherwise, where would I come from? It's just that there are some things in my body that others don't have. It’s just talent. I promise God, I will still be the same red heart, your favorite husband, and the captain that everyone can trust. You won’t alienate me just because I’ve become more powerful, right?”

Zhuxin rolled her eyes at him: "Shameless, who is my favorite husband? Has anyone ever married you?" The atmosphere returned to normal, and everyone giggled. Although Ling Hao was still smiling playfully, But it caused quite a stir in my heart. He knows very well what kind of abilities he has. He can feel the difference between himself and everyone else. He is afraid that in the future, the people around him will slowly drift away from him. He cannot accept that he and everyone are the same. People from different worlds. He really missed the careless days of the past, worrying about paying wages to his brothers, diving when there was work, and wandering around when there was no work. He was afraid that that kind of life would really be gone forever. If possible, after solving the problem of the Sharman tribe, he planned to stay away from the sea for a while, get married, have children, and fulfill his promise to Zhuxin.

The "Aleutian Islands" are located in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean and are an archipelago that separates the "Bering Sea" and the Pacific Ocean. Starting from "Unimak Island" in the east and "Attu Island" in the west, it consists of more than 70 small islands. It is about 2,250 kilometers long and covers an area of ​​18,000 square kilometers. Most of it belongs to the U.S. state of Alaska and is usually considered the range of the Alaskan wilderness. The western part of it belongs to Russia. A semicircular belt of islands, intermittent, extending from east to west, almost reaching the Kamchatka Peninsula in Asia. This is really a wonderful creation of nature. If you take "Anadel Bay" at the northern end of the Bering Sea as the center point, and then use the distance from this center point to the Aleutian Islands as the radius, and draw a circle with a compass, you can find that, The Aleutian Islands stretch from east to west and are almost exactly the same as the trajectory of the circle. If the Bering Sea is compared to a river, then the Aleutian Islands are like a long series of "stepping stones" that curve out of the water. Starting from the Alaska Peninsula, you can "walk" to the "river" by stepping on these "stones" The other side.

Near an uninhabited island called "Kisca Island", the "Marian" has been anchored here for two days, and the "Pippi Shrimp" and all two-person pocket submarines have been launched. In the past two days, Ling Hao They have already surveyed the bottom of the entire sea along the Aleutian Islands.

At this moment, Ling Hao was sitting in the control room, looking at the images from the cameras on the screen, with a smile on his face. Zhu Xin came over with two cups of coffee, and was about to hand Ling Hao one cup when the boat was shaken by a wave and almost spilled the coffee on him.

"Will the waves in this sea never stop? There is an island next to it. Why don't we go to the island?" Zhu Xin put the coffee cup aside and wiped a few drops of coffee on Ling Hao with a paper towel. stains.

Ling Hao smiled and said: "I don't dare. Let's not talk about whether it is illegal to enter the territory of the United States directly. This 'Kiska Island' is not an ordinary place. During World War II, Americans and islanders were on the island. But after a battle, there were mines everywhere, and there was no one on this island. God knows if anyone had come to clear the mines."

At this moment, Shi Si's voice came from the communicator: "Brother, I think it's almost the same. There are no less than 10 places in the Aleutian Islands that meet the survival conditions of the Panshi clan. A rough calculation covers an area of ​​ten Tens of thousands of square kilometers, let alone millions of clansmen, even tens of millions of clansmen are still very spacious. Look at the country of Xiaoli, which has a land area of ​​less than 400,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 100 million. Even if the Panshi clan is huge, I That’s enough.”

"Okay, then come back, let's return." Ling Hao was in a good mood. The habitat he promised to find for the Panshi Clan was finally found. After circling the earth, the Haizhong Clan had basically connected everything they could think of. Once again, it's time to go back to "Corolla City" to rest, and at the same time figure out how to fight this ocean war.

Just when Ling Hao was enjoying himself, his satellite phone rang. When he looked at the caller ID, it turned out to be an unfamiliar number. This surprised Ling Hao. Did the salesman not even let the satellite phone go?

"Hey! Ling Hao, you are a black-hearted, short-lived, ungrateful, heartless and irresponsible person! Have you completely forgotten about my mother?" As soon as Ling Hao answered the phone, he heard a cigarette and alcoholic voice on the other side of the receiver. The woman in front of me was cursing and shouting like a shrew.

Ling Hao's face was full of black lines, he swallowed and said: "Shui Lingxing? Where did you get the satellite phone from?"

"You think I can't find you because I'm just a mermaid spirit, right? I know how to play with all the high-tech gadgets you humans have, how can a broken phone still stump me?" Shui Lingxing was obviously furious. , there was a hint of crying in his voice as he cursed. Ever since she completed the solo mission assigned by Ling Hao, she had completely lost contact with him. How could she possibly find Ling Hao's shadow while she was searching aimlessly in the vast sea. With no choice but to force herself onto a human yacht, she "borrowed" someone else's satellite phone to call Ling Hao. Since leaving Lake Baikal, Shui Lingxing has been following Ling Hao. They have been through life and death several times, and they have formed a deep friendship. In the past, they didn't feel anything like it, but this time they were suddenly separated for such a long time, Shui Lingxing felt a strange feeling. The emotion that was more terrifying than loneliness was the fear of loss. She couldn't help but think about whether she had been abandoned by Ling Hao. Only now did she realize how important Ling Hao was to her, that's why she roared angrily on the phone, her voice hoarse.

After venting for a long time, Shui Lingxing finally calmed down. She took a deep breath and did not wait for the stunned Ling Hao on the other side of the receiver to reply. She just said calmly to the phone: "I'm in the Mariana Islands." Saipan's waters, I don't care where you are now, come and pick me up!" After saying that, she hung up the phone, threw it back to the frightened owner of the yacht, then turned around and jumped into the sea. .

Looking at the confused Ling Hao, Zhu Xin smiled awkwardly and said: "This Shui Lingxing has a really bad temper, but it's your fault. Did he really forget about him?"

"How could it be? I thought she would be waiting for me in Corolla City after completing her mission. Who knew she would be looking for me all over the sea." Ling Hao felt that he was a little unjust.

Zhu Xin glanced at him meaningfully: "Obviously she doesn't want to leave you for too long, so just commit the crime. One Anne is not enough, and now there is another mermaid. It depends on how you repay the peach blossom debt in the future. ."

"No way, this is not only cross-nationality, but also cross-species. I have never provoked her, I am innocent!" Ling Hao wailed. Zhuxin said "hum", picked up the coffee and went back to the cabin.

Ling Hao was a little embarrassed. He looked at the people in the command cabin who were holding back their laughter and sighed. Pete, who was wearing a captain's hat and sitting in the corner with a cigar in his mouth, also sighed and said: "Brother, with you as an example for me, I think it's better for me to continue to be my bachelor."

"You go and be an old sea dog!" Ling Hao gave him a stern look.

"Boss! Something is very wrong in the sea. A large number of fish are gathering and swimming towards the south." The voice of "Flint" sounded in the communicator. He was driving the two-person Xiuzhen submarine back from the sea dozens of kilometers away. Rushing.

"What's new about fish schools? You are serving in the navy after all. Have you never seen fish schools?" Ling Haozheng was annoyed.

"No, this school of fish is too big, and it's not a kind of fish. There are all kinds of fish. Many of them are not migratory fish, or even gregarious fish, so they look weird." "Flint" He continued, his voice trembling for some reason.

"He's stupid, let me tell you." Baimei, who also piloted the Xiuzhen submarine, took over the conversation on the communicator: "There are more and more fish in the sea now, and they are densely packed and boundless, ranging from sharks to coral reefs. All the small fish followed them and swam southward like a demon, and I didn’t notice any large marine creatures hunting behind them. This scene was really weird." As she said that, she turned on the camera and sent the image over.

Everyone in the control room gasped as they looked at the screen. This is a picture taken with a wide-angle lens. Countless fish, turtles and even cephalopods such as octopus and squid in the sea completely occupy the entire field of view. No matter it is around or up and down, the edges are completely invisible. These animals did not run away in panic, but just swam slowly towards the south as if they were all hypnotized. The scene could be described as shocking.

"This is a 'fish tide'. The fish are migrating as a whole. Could it be that some kind of natural disaster is going to happen?" Tian Yong said in surprise.

Shi Si said in the communicator: "It's unlikely. All my detectors are currently monitoring in real time in the sea. If there is any natural disaster about to happen, there will always be some data anomalies."

"Everyone, please come back quickly. Tian Yong also takes back the detectors. Let's follow the fish school to see what's going on."

An hour later, the Marianne recovered all the submersibles, weighed anchor and headed south, following the tide of fish. Standing on the side of the boat, everyone could see that the color of the water seemed to have become much darker due to the dense shoals of fish in the water.

Ling Hao's brows furrowed. Although the sea was still sunny and windy, a dark cloud hung over his heart.
