Chapter 296: 294: Sea Beast War (Subscription Request)
Walter agreed straightforwardly and acted faster!
As soon as he raised his hand, the magic wand appeared in his hand. He then slammed it to the ground. Visible magic patterns lit up layer by layer and wrapped him up.

When the magic pattern dimmed, Walter was no longer in the captain's room. To release the sea beast, he needed to control it in the control room.

However, he was also a sensible man, and the magic mirror quickly split into two, the upper half was still the scene in the distance, and the lower half was the scene within the fog.

At this time, the magic warship began to vibrate violently, rumbling and deafening.

Luo Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, his ears trembled, and the sound he heard became clearer.

He heard the sound of the capstan turning, the chanting of magic, the heavy breathing, the low roar, and even the crackling sound of electricity...

All of this combined into a series of pictures in his mind.

In the control room, Walter chanted a spell, and the five gems of various colors on the top of the wand lit up. In response, layers of magic patterns flashed from the floor to the wall.

At the bottom of the cabin, several burly men were pulling hard around a capstan. With their flexed muscles, the capstan turned and opened the hatch at the bottom of the ship.

Then, sea water poured in, and a terrifying beast was awakened.

It raised its huge head, opened its eyes as big as millstones, looked around, and then swam out from the hatch at the bottom of the ship.

As it moved, bright electric light flashed all over its body, spreading along the sea water.

Although it was just imagination, at this moment, Luo Yi suddenly had a better understanding of sound.

He felt that if his guess was correct, the sea beast summoned by Walter was also as big as a snake and could also release lightning!

Like an electric eel!

When this thought came to mind, Luo Yi immediately looked up, staring at the magic mirror.

Then he saw it, he saw the lower half of the magic mirror, in the blue sea, a streak of lightning was moving in the water.

The speed was extremely fast, and the target was directly aimed at the merchant ship in the distance.

Wherever it passed, there were flashes of lightning and thunder, and all the sea creatures that were unable to avoid it all turned upside down and floated on the water.

Among them, there are many huge sharks!

In just a moment, it arrived at the battlefield. Without saying a word, it dived into the water and entangled with the huge black shadow.

At this moment, the magic mirror returned to its original state and the camera zoomed out, revealing the battlefield surrounding the merchant ship.

At this moment, two giant sea beasts rushed to the surface from the bottom of the sea, and even directly raised huge waves that continued to spread around.

It was also at this time that Luo Yi got a glimpse of the full appearance of the two sea beasts.

The shark-like sea beast not only had a dorsal fin, but also a pair of sharp claws. They looked a little short, but that was also true considering its body size.

Although it is huge, its speed is really not slow. It flaps its fins and rolls in the sea.

This kind of sea beast is naturally a magical beast. Its innate magic doesn't seem to be very powerful. It just spits out high-pressure water jets.

It was not enough to deal with the electric eel sea beast summoned by Walter, but the merchant ship was hit and a hole was directly pierced through it.

One sailor was unlucky and happened to be in the path of the water jet. Then, the lower half of his body was gone, and he was twisted into a bloody mist.

When he landed, his upper body was lying on the ground. He was not dead yet and kept howling for several minutes before he stopped.

As for the electric eel sea monster, it is no less powerful.

Its body length alone is over 200 meters, as thick as a millstone, its head is like a crocodile, its teeth are as sharp as knives, and its bite force must be quite amazing.

The most bizarre thing is that there are two long dragon whiskers on the crocodile's mouth, like long whips, and every time they are touched, electric light flashes.

Then it passed along the dark yellow snake body, as if it was amplified, the electric light became bigger and bigger, and the power became stronger and stronger.

Looking closely, the snake's body seemed to be covered with a thick layer of mucus, making it slippery and difficult to bear force.

This electric eel sea monster was the strong one. It cleared a path with lightning and thunder, and wherever it passed, all the sharks turned upside down.

Until the giant shark, it directly wrapped around it, like a snake, constantly wrapping around and tightening, with thunderous paralysis, and its fangs and big mouth biting non-stop.

In other words, the shark sea monster was really thick-skinned and tough, and it didn't care and kept rolling around everywhere.

Even its huge body leaped directly into the air and slammed heavily into the water, splashing huge waves.

It has to be said that the battle between sea beasts is so simple and unpretentious, but due to their size, every move is earth-shaking.

The most unfortunate ones are the fish that are everywhere, dying miserably and floating everywhere.

The most pitiful one was the ship. It was already damaged and had no power, but it was involved in a battle between two sea beasts. If anyone hit it, it would fall apart.

The remaining sailors on board were almost kneeling down to pray for the gods' protection.

However, they were really lucky because they did not receive the final blow until the end of the war.

And the final winner is the electric eel sea monster.

After realizing that its body's reactions were becoming increasingly numb, the giant shark first pretended to be dead to get a chance to catch its breath, then used its short sharp claws to tear and spit out streams of water to break free from the deathly coils of the electric eel sea monster.

Then, it dived into the deep sea without looking back and escaped.

The electric eel sea monster wanted to chase after it, but was stopped by a series of chants. It seemed to be very annoyed and shook its head, causing huge waves.

Finally, it gave up and surfaced, opened its bloody mouth, and swallowed up all kinds of fish that were either unconscious or dead.

Only after it was full did it slowly swam back to the bottom of the magic warship and entered the cabin.

The huge body circled dozens of times, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep. But even with its eyes closed, its two long whiskers were still floating in the air, and from time to time there were flashes of lightning and thunder, echoing each other.

In the captain's room, Luo Yi retracted his gaze, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "These sea beasts are really exaggerated!
They are all like this, how terrifying must those monsters in ancient legends be?"

Oliveira said, "Even so, they are just beasts without wisdom!"

Luo Yi nodded slowly, but shook his head again and said nothing more!
In any case, after saving this merchant ship, we can't just walk away.

Walter drove the magic warship closer, and then sent a small boat to rescue, or board the ship to check, or treat the wounded, or salvage the goods, or count the losses...

It was not until several hours later, near dusk, that he hurried back and brought the latest news to Luo Yi.

This merchant ship is not owned by the Raymond family, but it flies the lion flag.

This is normal!

Many merchant ships would pay a considerable sum of money to the Raymond family in exchange for this lion flag, which meant that their merchant ships were protected by the Raymond family.

Generally speaking, pirates would retreat when they saw them.

Of course, the prerequisite is to accept inspection by the Port City Guards.

If the goods are prohibited by the Flower Territory, such as human slaves, no matter how much money is offered, it cannot be exchanged for this flag.

The cargo carried by this merchant ship was relatively normal, namely food, perfume, soul-fixing spices, a small amount of magic potions and iron ingots!

These are all normal goods, also purchased from Siren Port, and will eventually be shipped to the Kingdom of Sardinia.

We followed the regular route without much deviation.

But when passing through here, somehow, they were collided with a large sea beast.

Thanks to the captain's alertness, he threw away a lot of heavy cargo and drove the ship at maximum speed, and was able to barely travel some distance.

But the problem is, wanting to escape from being chased by a sea beast in the sea is simply a pipe dream!

In other words, Luo Yi and the others passed by, otherwise, they would definitely have died silently.

Of course, the actual situation is not much better!

All the masts were broken, the stern collapsed, the bottom of the ship was leaking, less than one-third of the sailors were left, and most of the cargo was lost.

This kind of loss was enough to bankrupt Captain Beard.

Of course, sea transportation is inherently dangerous, and the prerequisite for making huge profits is that you have to take huge risks.

None of this had anything to do with Luo Yi and the others. What had to do with them was the sudden attack by sea beasts.

Captain's cabin.

After hearing all the details, Roy finally spoke: "Walter, are you sure there is really no contraband on that merchant ship?"

Walter frowned and thought for a moment, then said, “I took a look around myself and didn’t find anything suspicious!”

"That is to say, this sea beast shouldn't have been attracted by special items. And sea beasts don't like to move around in shallow waters. There is only one possibility."

Walter seemed to have figured something out, his face looked grim: “Lord Earl, do you mean that someone is driving this sea beast?”

"If you can make a contract with that electric eel sea beast, it's not impossible for others to be able to control it!
I just don’t know why they do this.”

Walter said again: "How about I go and interrogate the captain again?"

"it's useless!"

Luo Yi shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm not interested in these things. I'm just afraid that those people won't give up!
Walter?!"

"Mr. Earl, what are your orders?"

"Stay alert, I'm afraid those people may have to be found again!"

"Are they that brave?"

“Be prepared!”

Luo Yi said this, but he always felt that the matter was not over yet.

However, the magic warship was bustling again after a long time.

Some sailors caught a lot of precious fish and monsters, and took the essence of them to make a sumptuous dinner.

The rescued sailors had a hot meal and finally recovered.

Master Walter was not idle either. On the one hand, he sent a signal to ask the nearest ship of the Raymond family to pick them up.

On the other hand, he searched the existing cargo again and chatted with the sailors.

What a pity, nothing was discovered!

Of course, the entire magic warship actually maintains a loose exterior and tight interior state, and those carefully selected sailors are all fully armed.

The rescued crew members were placed in a certain area, with spies watching over them everywhere.

However, late at night, when the vague and ethereal singing sounded in Luo Yi's ears, he knew that all his preparations were in vain.
