Zhang Yingying was shocked: "What do you mean?"
Ronan's eyes wandered between the sea and the sky: "It means that we may be targeted... At least that cow ghost must be targeted by something. Of course, I don't mean the 'ship-cutting knife' .”
"It's not the 'ship-cutting sword'. You mean, the 'ship-cutting sword' is driven by others?"
"Well, I probably want to rush to the outer perimeter." Ronan responded in a manly voice. At this time, his attention only occasionally glanced at the scene of the pursuit battle, and most of it was directed towards the gloomy clouds in the sky.
Zhang Yingying was influenced by him and looked at the sky: "Up there?"
Ronan answered honestly: "I don't know, I just feel like I'm being spied on. Maybe I can ask His Majesty the Emperor Wu for advice."
"Wait a minute, you said 'maybe', but neither you nor the boss are sure?" Zhang Yingying blinked and finally grasped the key point of Ronan's words, "Hey, think about the 'cage' theory, you can't say this nonsense! "
"This is true."
Ronan stretched out his hand, moisture condensing on his fingertips, as if he wanted to write something, but in the end he dismissed it: "Contact is violation, one-sided... The other party did it very cleverly."
Zhang Yingying opened her mouth again, but before she had time to speak, several speeches had already burst out in the group. Not only were the times almost in no particular order, but the contents were also surprisingly consistent:
"Extraordinary species?!"
"No!" Zhang Yingying couldn't accept it.
According to Ronan's "cage" theory, at the mental level, those who can unilaterally exert surveillance prove that they have obvious advantages in the depth and breadth of mental induction.
And who is being monitored?
Ronan, a world-renowned telepathic master, is suspected of being a supernatural being;
His Majesty, Emperor Wu, is a genuine extraordinary species.
The opponent that can make both of them feel troublesome and unable to find the source can only be found at the level of "extraordinary species". Not only is he an extraordinary species, he is probably also an unimaginable spiritual master...
"It's not that exaggerated."
Ronan knew that Zhang Yingying was overthinking, so he explained a few more words: "The other party's induction is not direct, it is just very good at using the medium. The 'ship-cutting knife' is one of the medium, and the surrounding sea fish , many types of aberrations are like this.
"The reason why we still can't figure out where the other party is is because quite a few of the creatures that have been attracted have already been manipulated before. They are like preset sensors. In this way, we are exposed to these guys. It's like being exposed to that person's eyes.
"These 'sensors' only emit signals in all directions, in the sky and under the sea, in a mess." The person doing the monitoring should have a receiver with a special frequency band that can perform reception and decoding. We can find the transmitter, but not the receiver...that's all. "
There is no need to elaborate on some of the more technical details. Ronan just summarized: "In short, it is true that we have been decorated. Extraordinary species are very likely. As for powerful enemies, let's wait and see."
Zhang Yingying asked: "What's the reason?"
"There is a factor of distance. The emitted spiritual wave signal should be very suitable for long-distance transmission, just like radio or infrasound waves. From this, it seems that the monitor may be very far away.
"Besides, I think that if he really has bad intentions towards us, he wouldn't be exposed because of a cow ghost... If the 'ship-cutting knife' hadn't received clear instructions to pursue it, it would be difficult for me to do so. Notice the fishy nature of these aberrations.
"Unfortunately, the instruction was very brief. It was so brief that by the time I reacted, it would be difficult to follow him."
Zhang Yingying still wanted to break the casserole and ask: "After all, what kind of tricks are they?"
"Is it similar to the transformation of reproductive clothing? It's quite complicated to explain in detail. To put it simply, it's just to insert an antenna... Well, wouldn't it be more intuitive to say it's a parasite?"
"Parasite phenomena are quite common in the ocean." Zhang Yingying seemed to understand, "You mean, some kind of parasite is used over there to achieve the purpose of signal reception... Oh my God, what do you think?"
Ronan shrugged: "Let's observe more, and it's just a preliminary result. I think so. I need to follow up and observe more specifically, and I'll tell you later?"
"Uh, no, no, no." Zhang Yingying waved her hands.
It is still a bit difficult for others to sort out clear clues from Ronan's words. Relatively speaking, it is easier to use their imagination.
"It can't really be...that or something?" Paper-cut started to feel resentful about what he said, and became more and more reluctant to speak out.
"What a coincidence! You just said that the King of Diamonds is mainly active in the South Pacific. Nanzi came out of Ticheng and went all the way north. The route has long been staggered."
The more Octopus lays out his arguments, the more guilty he feels.
"King of Diamonds, Poseidon."
Ronan had heard the name of this legendary aberration, but influenced by ancient mythology, he unconsciously personified the guy. When I recalled the relevant information at this time, I couldn't recall a more specific image.
He asked Meng Chong next to him: "What species is Poseidon aberrated from? Is it a whale?"
"Well, there's no particularly specific image."
This statement was somewhat beyond Ronan's expectation: "No?"
Meng Chong nodded slightly: "Yes, it is said that when Poseidon appears, there will always be strong winds and huge waves on the sea, with a large number of marine species as its precursor, and it merges with the ocean, which is very mysterious..."
Speaking of this, Meng Chong looked around the sea and suddenly couldn't speak anymore. There were a series of dull or dark expressions in the group.
Zhang Yingying glared at him: "Lao Meng, you must have done it on purpose!"
Meng Chong lowered his eyelids: "That's what the relevant information says."
Zhang Yingying was choked and unable to refute.
Ronan was very curious: "No one has ever seen its true face? So how can you tell whether it is Poseidon? If someone wants to kill people and sell goods, it would be too easy to pass it off to it in a stormy day."
"The fact is that it's easy to confuse. It is said that in the small circle of supernatural beings, there is a way to distinguish whether it is Poseidon, but there are also people who are very good at taking advantage of this. For example, Nick, the most vicious pirate supernatural species, is said to have entrusted In the name of Poseidon, he made many desperate deals."
"I think I've heard of this person, but extraordinary beings become pirates..."
Zhang Yingying sneered: "He did too many bad things on the shore, so everyone joined forces to hunt him down, so he had no choice but to hide in the sea."
"Don't go off topic, don't go off topic."
"Isn't it off topic to talk about Poseidon? I really hope to run away..."
Amidst Zhang Yingying's muttering, Meng Chong continued to return to the topic of Poseidon: "Because of Poseidon's mysterious characteristics, in ocean cities such as Ti City and Tucheng, a kind of worship has even developed, forming some small The mysterious order, which revered it as the Will of the Sea, was mostly fragmented and unsystematic. But even in such cases, some rituals could be effective and had considerable consistency.
"With this evidence, in the field of religious orders, we can basically conclude that there is some kind of supernatural power that 'watches' the past... Ah, I'm sorry, this is too anthropomorphic. Perhaps it is more objective to say 'resonance and response'. "
Ronan keenly caught a hint of the unfinished meaning in Meng Chong's words: "Are you comparing 'Ocean Will' and 'Blood Flame Will'?"
Meng Chong hesitated for a moment, then said: "The personification of faith has never been what we want."
Ronan nodded: "Most of the time, the world does not depend on people's wishes...but in such a messy place like the earth, I also think it is very tasteless to pretend to be a god."
Everyone could tell that Ronan was touched by what he said, but no one could guess the specific trigger point.
No one on the front deck or in the friend group answered the call for a moment.
Ronan laughed again: "Since you are not sure which one it is, don't focus on the most troublesome part. In the Pacific Ocean, Poseidon is definitely not the only one with extraordinary level of aberrations, right?"
"That's true. Counting South Pacific alone, those who are more active can also gather a table of mahjong."
"Well, I won't play cards with them today."
Zhang Yingying kicked him empty-handedly: "Forget it, I'll ask the boss and see what she says. Maybe she's already cleared up in her heart."
Almost at the same time, Meng Chong said: "Sir, it will be difficult to disperse these fish and abnormal creatures that are following, but it is best to deal with that bull ghost specially..."
What Meng Chong said is a prudent theory.
Obviously, that bull ghost is a key point. When the other party is far from showing obvious hostility, it may be good for both parties to drive the unstable factors far away.
Ronan said "Huh" but didn't respond yet.
On the sea not far away, the cow ghost made another turn while running away, almost touching the front of the huge wave stirred by the strong wind, like a light kung fu master chasing cicadas in eight steps on a steep wall, several times in a row Dot and draw, he just took advantage of the waves, turned quickly, stayed close to the huge waves that were already rolling in, and narrowly avoided the pursuit behind him.
At this time, its direction is already parallel to the direction of the yacht.
Relatively speaking, the "Ship-cutting Sword" was reckless. The force of the impact did not diminish, and it directly penetrated the huge waves, as if it was a piece of tissue paper.
Similar scenes have happened many times before. You don't need to look at it to know that in less than half a second, the aberrant knife eel will cut through the huge waves again and fight back.
Therefore, Niu Gui, who had just escaped a disaster, could not stop at all. With his eight pointed limbs, he lightly scratched the sea surface. No matter whether it was the waves or the abnormal forms in the waves, they could not stop it in the slightest. It chased the side of the yacht, and in a few moments it snatched some distance away from the bow to start the next round of detour.
But this time, it didn't grab it.
In the air in front of the yacht, a solid wall seemed to suddenly stand up. It was invisible and colorless, but stronger than gold and steel. This guy bumped headlong into it, and his whole body was shaken violently. However, in terms of spatial position, he couldn't even overcome it by a millimeter.
Almost all the force of the shock was applied to it, and it only froze for a moment before softening. Just then, a yacht traveling at high speed caught up and sent it flying, then ran over it a second time, submerging it in the torrent of sea water and dense creatures.
