Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 143 Hunter Fisherman
……

08am, Lousu District, K Airport.

Before boarding the plane, Tianshu Tower finally informed the hunters of the "leaked" content of the trial - the specific content was exactly the same as what Yang Qi said. As for the mission objectives of the second phase, they were divided into two: investigating the strange situation of the uninhabited island, and recovering the valuable research materials left on the island.

There were more than 150 hunters participating in the second round of the trial. They set off on four planes, but the planes did not take them directly to the island, but to the coastal city of Jingu.

The "Mermaid-class" missile destroyer mentioned by Yang Qi was already waiting for them in the naval port. This destroyer had undergone some drastic modifications, and the deck originally used to park carrier-based aircraft was filled with huge metal cabinets - these metal cabinets were hangars for autonomous drones. According to the accompanying personnel of Tianshu Tower, this destroyer carried a total of 6,000 drones. Even if calculated based on a 70% damage rate, at least 1,800 drones would escape.

Of course, the actual situation cannot be calculated in this way, but this is the only thing they can do - it is like winning a war by piling up lives. No matter how serious the loss of drones is, as long as one can bring back valuable information, it will be a huge profit for Tianshu Tower.

Anyway, they are not short of money. The federal government allocates billions of dollars to the Tianshu Tower every month. No matter how inexpensive a method is, as long as it can be put to use, it is a good method.

……

The nameless island was nearly a hundred nautical miles away from the coastline. The destroyer carrying the hunters sailed on the sea for two and a half hours before the outline of the island appeared above the sea level in the distance.

"The area within 20 nautical miles of the coastline of the Nameless Island is a restricted area. I can only take you here." The first mate in the Federal Navy uniform said to the hunters, "The landing craft is ready. From now on, you have to rely on yourselves."

Sun Hang and the talkative hunter chose the same landing craft, while the group of Anglo-Saxon hunters boarded another landing craft with another group of Indian hunters.

These landing craft are easy to operate. Just start the diesel engine at the stern and then hold the tiller to control the direction.

"Let me drive the boat," said the chatterbox hunter. "That's what I used to do!"

"Were you a sailor before?" Sun Hang asked curiously.

"No, I was helping someone manage a fishery on the coast of Far East Siberia, but I was attacked by a strange creature in the sea and got infected." The chatterbox hunter said, "After surviving the disaster, I became a hunter."

"By the way, I haven't asked you what your code name is yet?"

“Fisherman,” the chatterbox hunter said. “That’s what they all call me.”

More than 150 hunters boarded the boats one after another. Accompanied by the friction sound between the crane cables and pulleys, the landing craft were lowered one by one. The fisherman pulled the rope hard, and a dull roar suddenly sounded from inside the engine.

"Let's go!" the fisherman shouted and pushed the output valve of the boat's engine to the maximum!
White foamy waves splashed behind the boat, and the salty sea water splashed onto Sun Hang's face, giving him an illusion that he was like a soldier landing on the beach in a war movie. On the coastline not far away, countless gun muzzles hidden behind the shooting holes in the bunkers were aiming at him from a distance, waiting for him to enter their range.

"You seem to like the sea very much?" Sun Hang glanced at the fisherman and asked, "Generally speaking, people will have some psychological trauma about the places where they have been attacked, but you don't seem to have this worry at all." "Haha, maybe I'm just a bit thick-skinned!" The fisherman laughed, "Hey, let me tell you, it was fishing season that year, and I drove a speedboat with my boss and customers to the fishing grounds. As a result, the monster rushed out of the water halfway and overturned the entire speedboat!"

"And then?" Before Sun Hang could say anything, another young hunter nearby asked curiously.

"Including me, there were six people on the boat, and we all fell into the water. I was lucky because I was caught upside down by the overturned speedboat. The other five people were not so lucky. They were directly swept into the undercurrent - that undercurrent is very dangerous. Even people who can swim cannot control their bodies in it. They didn't even have a chance to struggle before they were eaten by the monster."

"What kind of strange creature is that?" asked a female hunter sitting opposite Sun Hang.

"It was a big fish. I don't know what species it was. It looked damn ugly, like a thing made by stitching together parts of those weird deep-sea creatures. I don't know how it ended up near the coast..." the fisherman recalled.

"Then how did you survive?"

"I was also panicking at that time! But panicking was useless! While the boss and the others were helping me to 'buy' time, I took the harpoon gun from the speedboat and shot the guy in the head!"

"Just beat him to death?"

"Of course not! Big fish like that are very tenacious. How could one harpoon kill them? Besides, they were a strange creature." The fisherman continued, "But their defense was not strong. The harpoon shot through their heads... Just when I wanted to fire a second shot at them, I found that the straps that secured the spare ammunition of the harpoon gun had come loose, and all of them had sunk to the bottom of the sea when the boat capsized."

"And then?" the female hunter asked impatiently.

Sun Hang suddenly felt that this fisherman had the potential to be a storyteller, and even his own curiosity was aroused by him.

"There's nothing I can do. The only weapon I have is a dagger. I can only rush up and fight it hand-to-hand—"

Sun Hang couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although this guy looked like Yin Xiang on the outside, he still had the blood of a fighting nation flowing in his veins. He dared to rush up and fight the monster with a dagger. His bravery was simply extreme.

"You just used a dagger... to kill the monster?" the young hunter who asked the question at the beginning exclaimed.

"It wasn't that easy. I didn't even stab the monster a few times before it bit off several pieces of my flesh... I don't know if it was the adrenaline or something else at the time, but I didn't feel any pain at all... Later, during the fight, the dagger was knocked off, so I pounced on it and used my teeth to gnaw and tear at its flesh..."

"Fuck, man, you're so powerful?" The young hunter was completely stunned.
