Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 13: Efficient Hunting, Flame Wave Fire Iguana
"It's only practice that makes it so!"

The Sea Hunter comes to the Fire Iguana Islands once a year. As an old boatman, Uncle Gui is really extremely skilled.

"A late-stage lizard demon is worth as much as three or four mid-stage ones, so we should try to preserve its intact scales. From now on, we will cooperate in this way and simply switch positions when we encounter a late-stage target."

"understand!"

Cooperation is the result of practice. As time goes by, the three of them become more and more proficient in cooperation. When encountering a mid-stage first-level lizard monster, they only need one person to attack seriously; when encountering a late-stage first-level lizard monster, they only need one person to attack with all their strength.

"not good!"

Seeing that the three people's storage bags were about to be full, Uncle Gui's strangling ability unexpectedly failed.

"Military Sword Technique: Throwing Sword Style!"

A sword with a black and gold glow immediately stepped forward to fill the position. Its sharp blade pierced through the mouth of the lizard monster that was about to escape, and came out from the back of its head, splattering its brains and killing it with one blow!
"Huhuhu~"

Lin Qianfan felt a little exhausted due to the instantaneous over-limit output. This was the first time he killed a first-stage late-stage monster with his own hands.

"Nice stab! Well done, Qianfan! It seems our spiritual energy is a bit lacking, and our condition has declined significantly. We need to go back and rest and replenish our energy."

After realizing that they could no longer take risks, the three of them packed up the last late-stage fire iguana monster and began their return journey.

"Oh~ Boss~ We'll go back first, please be careful~"

"Come on, come on, then everyone go back first~"

Although the three-person team is weak individually, it has the advantage of numbers. Although the two-person team is strong individually, it has fewer people. So everyone's condition is not very good now, so there is no need to take risks and show off.

Soon, the group of thirty people returned to the ship. After statistics, it was found that only two careless people were slightly injured in this battle, and there was no actual damage. The battle loss ratio was completely acceptable.

"Let's leave it at that for now on this island. The remaining ones are basically early-stage first-level lizard monsters and those who are not yet at the first level. Everyone, register your spoils and rest up first. We will land on the next hunting island in two hours."

After registering the prey, the tired Lin Qianfan ate a big meal and then began to meditate to recover. As for the work of dismantling the prey, he let those who had stayed on the boat do it first.

Two hours later.

With their spirits and energy fully recovered, everyone arrived at the next target island.

This island is smaller than the previous one, and the people cooperated better and quickly screened the entire island. This island will not be used in the next few years, and it will take several years for it to recover.

...

sunset.

After clearing three islands in a row during the day and taking two short breaks, the Lin family finally returned to the warm and comfortable Sea Hunter.

"Awesome! This is the first time I've killed someone so thoroughly."

As the cooperation became more and more tacit, on the third island, Lin Qianfan also took on the output position appropriately. He personally killed more than ten mid-stage lizard monsters and was no longer considered a novice.

"Get some rest tonight, this will continue for several days."

The number of storage bags on the ship naturally cannot be based on the number of people. There are several spare second-level storage bags on the ship. This trip will not return until all these storage bags are filled. After all, these first-level resources are worthless and can only be accumulated in quantity.

Back on his bed, Lin Qianfan closed his eyes and recalled the course of today's battle, summarizing the gains and losses, especially the sword that helped Uncle Gui finish off the late-stage lizard monster. It was precise and violent, leaving him with endless aftertaste.

"Long-term practice of swordsmanship has laid a solid foundation, allowing me to respond to the situation and deliver this sword thrust. However, I have little actual combat experience and lack flexibility and adaptability. Otherwise, I wouldn't have used too much force and lost my strength."

Lin Qianfan began to carefully comprehend the combat experiences during the Qi Refining Period in his previous life memories, especially the military swordsmanship of the Great Qin Dynasty, in order to arm himself who lacked offensive means.

The next day.

At first light, the Sea Hunter quietly docked on a medium-sized island. "I remember the last time I came to this island was five years ago. I didn't expect to end up in this location again."

There are countless outlying islands in the Fire Iguana Archipelago, and the strangulation routes are different every year.

"This island is really big. There should be more lizard monsters in the later stages."

Soon, the Lin family began to search for valuable prey in the same direction.

Compared to yesterday, the three of them cooperated more smoothly today. The efficiency of searching → selecting → killing → converging the battlefield increased by nearly 30%, and they began to intentionally give up some first-level mid-term targets and focus on killing more valuable first-level late-term targets.

The more you work, the more you get. The final reward distribution of this hunt for the Fire Iguana Monster is related to the actual gains of each team. Uncle Gui saw that the two juniors were still in a rapid growth period and relied heavily on this opportunity to obtain resources, so he did not deliberately slack off and gave it his all.

puff~

Lin Qianfan skillfully killed a mid-stage lizard monster with his own hands. Myna immediately stepped forward to finish off the monster and then retreated after ensuring the kill.

"Everyone return to the ship immediately, without delay! Now!"

A serious female voice suddenly exploded in Lin Qianfan's mind. It was the cold command of Jiu Ye, which left no room for doubt.

"Did you hear Master Jiu's telepathic voice?"

"I heard you. Everyone is informed. We must return to the Sea Hunter immediately."

"Come on!"

Although no one knew what exactly happened, the long-established discipline made everyone return immediately without any delay, because no one could afford the risk of an accident.

"Look, it's the second-level Flame Wave Fire Iguana!"

The crowd that quickly reached the shore discovered a Level 2 Flame Wave Fire Iguana flying towards them from the center of the archipelago.

"Don't waste time, get on board!"

The Qi-refining monks have strong mobility. Those in the late stage of Qi-refining can even fly with their objects. In addition, the hunting location is not far from the hunting ship, so everyone successfully returned to the ship before the Flame Wave Fire Iguana flew over.

"How could a second-level monster appear on the outskirts of the archipelago?"

"I'm not sure, but this Flame Wave Fire Iguana is only at the early second stage of cultivation. It's far less formidable than the Mo Yuan Demon Seal from last time. We can give it a try. Hehe~ Looks like we'll have a comfortable winter this year."

The advantage of Jiu Ye's absence became apparent. The other party did not know the true strength of the Sea Hunter. It only saw a group of first-level leather-wrapped monkeys boarding the boat from a distance. Because of the formation, it could not correctly assess the strength of the Sea Hunter.

hiss~
The Flame Wave Fire Iguana roared and quickly approached the Sea Hunter which was "fleeing" overseas.

"Charge the Psionic Cannon/Monster Hunting Fork!"

"Everyone is ready to fight!"

hiss~
It seemed very angry, roaring and flying hard to catch up. Although the Sea Hunter tried its best to escape, the speed difference between the two sides was quite large, so it had to retreat at a constant speed under the protective shield and wait for the other party to catch up.

"coming!"

Lin Qianfan picked up a small demon-hunting crossbow on the boat and shot at the heart of the speeding Flame Wave Fire Iguana.

huh~
The second-level lizard monster did not dodge or evade. Although the arrow successfully hit it, the specially made first-level armor-piercing arrow failed to penetrate its tough second-level scales and was easily bounced off.

Lin Qianfan didn't show any surprise when he saw this.

Such a result is foreseeable. The Flame Wave Fire Iguana is a normal second-level monster, not an extremely biased student like the Mo Yuan Demon Chapter. Lin Qianfan's behavior is just to disgust and anger it.
