Doomsday Sacrifice

Chapter 107
The sea was calm and the yacht maintained a cruising speed of thirty knots.

Although Shen Yiqing was a novice captain, she sailed the boat really well. Li Xun was sitting beside her, holding a telescope in her hand, looking ahead.

Lao Fan and Cheng Xi were sitting on the sofa, and they were looking at the map of Xiancheng on a tablet.

Daju was still competing with the fish head at the bow of the boat, and the huge fish head was almost eaten by it. After the evolution was completed and the body grew, its food intake seemed to increase a lot.

If it weren't for the end of the world, how comfortable this kind of life would be!
After discussing with Cheng Xi, Lao Fan chose to dock at Silong Port. The city of Xiancheng is [-] to [-] kilometers away from the sea, and there are seven or eight ports nearby.

Silonggang is neither the largest nor the smallest. There are two main reasons for choosing this place. One is that it is the closest to downtown Xiancheng, with a straight-line distance of 42 kilometers. The other is that there is a small river near the port that can flow upstream and reach a small town.

The two told Li Xunyi that he had no opinion after looking at the map. The only problem was that he had to go through a deep-water port before arriving at Silong Port.

The port named Jiufeng Port is a deep-water wharf built using tidal channels. The water depth reaches 15 meters, and it is connected to the deep water of the open sea. It can enter and exit [-]-ton cargo ships.

The channel is four kilometers wide and more than 50 kilometers long. Li Xun has been in and out of the boat once before, and he has a deep impression on this place.

The problem is that there are three cargo-carrying roads in the port, which are four kilometers deep into the sea. That is to say, the yacht needs to go around the depths of the sea four kilometers away from the coast, and the possibility of encountering an extreme beast is extremely high.

But unless you go by land, you can’t avoid this place, but the land will obviously take more time. Since driving the yacht into the sea yesterday, I have run more than 200 kilometers in four hours, which is obviously impossible on land.

What's more, in addition to extreme beasts, there are also zombies on land, so the risk is no less than that at sea.

Everyone discussed it, and continued to walk by sea. The distance between several roads is not far, and the speed of a yacht can pass quickly. As long as you are vigilant and don't be surrounded by a large number of extreme beasts, the problem will not be big.

An hour later, the yacht approached Jiufeng Port, and the road leading to the sea could be seen from a distance.

Shen Yiqing pulled herself together, drove the yacht to the maximum speed, and drove away from the coast along the road to the depths of the ocean.

When going around the end of the road, I saw two huge cargo ships parked on the pier.

After successfully driving through the two roads, he kept observing the surrounding situation with binoculars, and discovered the situation almost at the same time as Lao Fan, who was manipulating the drone to conduct reconnaissance in the air.

About 500 meters away from the starboard side of the yacht, a group of huge creatures suddenly emerged from the water. At a glance, the number seems to be more than thirty.

Seeing the upright or sickle-shaped dorsal fins jumping out of the water, the spindle-shaped body, and the distinct black and white colors, Li Xun immediately recognized that it was a group of killer whales.

They also apparently found the yacht moving at high speed, swimming towards the yacht close to the sea surface.

When Li Xun said it was a killer whale, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lao Fan flew the drone over it and took a look. It was indeed a group of killer whales. There were 32 killer whales in total. The largest one was about seven or eight meters in size, and the smallest one was four or five meters in size.

Two killer whales seemed to have spotted the drone at a very low altitude and looked at it curiously.

"Good guy, these big guys are cute, black and white, like giant pandas." Cheng Xi saw this kind of marine life for the first time, and it was very novel.

"Don't look at their cute appearance, but they are known as the kings of the sea. They not only dare to attack other large whales, but also dare to attack great white sharks." Lao Fan said while raising the drone.

When the field of view of the drone became wider and wider, Lao Fan suddenly discovered that there was another group of unidentified creatures of similar size behind the group of killer whales, only two or three hundred meters away from the group of killer whales.

When the drone flew over the unknown creatures, Lao Fan and Cheng Xi couldn't help but widen their eyes, and what appeared out of the water was a group of extreme beasts.

"There are polar beasts behind the killer whales." Lao Fan shouted loudly, and then he controlled the drone to a high place and spun around, but saw polar beasts appearing on both sides except for the killer whale group. figure.

It seemed that the killer whale was surrounded.

The group of extreme beasts in the back was the most numerous, at least forty or fifty, and the total of the three sides exceeded one hundred.

Hearing Lao Fan say that there are so many polar beasts in three directions, Li Xun's expression also changed.

The yacht has bypassed the last road deep into the sea, and is sailing obliquely towards a river mouth, which is the mouth of the Silong River, where it can go upstream.

At this moment, Shen Yiqing's face changed slightly, and she turned the rudder quickly, and the yacht almost rushed towards the shore by the side of the road.

The sudden turning made Lao Fan and Cheng Xi, who were unprepared, almost fell down, and hurriedly found a seat to sit down.

"There are extreme beasts, and there are many of them." At this moment, Shen Yiqing's face turned pale, and she said urgently.

Li Xun ran to the starboard side with his bow, and Cheng Xi picked up the energy gun on the sofa and came to the guardrail behind the flybridge deck.

Li Xun, who came to the starboard side, suddenly found a few polar beasts on the right side out of the water, only seven or eighty meters away from him. If Shen Yiqing hadn't predicted it in advance, the yacht would probably bump into them.

With the sharp spiny fins on their backs, the 30-meter-long boat would break apart in no time.

Soon more polar beasts surfaced, no less than [-] in number. They were obviously the group of killer whales, but Li Xun and the others were unlucky and happened to meet them.

The group of extreme beasts split into two teams in an instant, two extreme beasts came chasing the yacht, and the rest of the extreme beasts still swam towards the killer whale, and they seemed not to pay much attention to the small yacht.

Seeing this scene, Lao Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Although the speed of the yacht is faster, there are too many polar beasts. If they catch up all at once, they will definitely be forced to the shore. When the yacht runs aground, who knows? Will these guys catch up to shore?
Well now, there are killer whales to absorb their attention, and the two polar beasts are not in their eyes.

After making up his mind, Lao Fan refocused the camera on the group of killer whales.

They have obviously discovered the polar beasts and know that they are surrounded, but they are already ferocious, so they obviously don't know what to be afraid of.

More than 30 killer whales, led by the largest one, rushed to the polar beast in the north.

When they were about to approach, both sides sank underwater at the same time.

After a while, the surface of the sea in the drone screen was like a boiling oil pan, tumbling endlessly, and soon turned blood red with blue in the middle.

Although Lao Fan had lowered the drone very low, only two or three meters above the sea, he still couldn't see the underwater battle clearly, so he could only wait helplessly.

The yacht made a circular arc and got closer and closer to the shore. The two polar beasts were chasing after them, and they would come out of the water from time to time.

But their speed was a little slower after all, and they could only follow behind.

Shen Yiqing drove the yacht into the river first, and soon, the two extreme beasts also went upstream and chased them in.

Li Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. The two extreme beasts cooperated very well. They seemed to know that he wanted to see what happened to them in the sea, so they sent them to his door on their own initiative.

The river marked as Silong River on the map is quite wide, more than 20 meters long, but the closer the sides are to the shore, the shallower it becomes. Shen Yiqing only dared to drive a yacht in the middle.

"Old Fan, scout the situation in front of the river, Xiao Shen lowered the speed of the boat and let the extreme beast approach slowly." Li Xun shouted.

"Understood, Boss, the drone has been recalled." Lao Fan replied, seeing that there was no underwater movement, and hearing Cheng Xi say that it entered the river, he was already recalling the drone.

"Okay." Shen Yiqing's voice came to Li Xun's mind, and at the same time, she also sent him the scene she saw ahead.

Li Xun praised secretly in his heart. In his mind's sight, the two sides of the river were sparsely populated and there were occasional people, but he did not find the figure of the extreme beast.

The drone flew overhead and moved forward quickly.

The speed of the yacht dropped to 25 knots, and the beast behind him was slowly approaching.

It has been five or six minutes into the river, and at the speed of a yacht, it has traveled about four or five kilometers. After chasing such a long distance, the speed has hardly changed, and it still maintains a speed of forty to fifty kilometers per hour.

And judging from the fact that they are sometimes underwater and sometimes exposed to the water, the polar beasts in the sea may be similar to whales, needing to breathe, and they still have limbs, which are likely to be amphibious.

Three or four minutes later, Lao Fan sent a report: "There is a small town two kilometers ahead, which should be Silong Town. There is a sluice there, and yachts cannot pass through it. Four land beasts were found to the west of the town."

"There seems to be a small pier in front of the sluice. Seven or eight boats are parked. The yacht should be able to dock. There are no zombies and extreme beasts on the shore."

"Old Fan, take back the drone, pack your things, and get ready to go ashore." Li Xun said after hearing this.

Keeping Cheng Xi on guard, he immediately returned to the flybridge to replace Shen Yiqing in driving the yacht.

Two minutes later, the yacht leaned against a fishing boat on the shore. Lao Fan and Shen Yiqing jumped ashore from the bow first, followed closely by Cheng Xi.

After the three landed, Cheng Xi handed the energy gun to Lao Fan, and he went straight along the road.

Lao Fan and Shen Yiqing entered a gas station beside the road.

The doors of convenience stores at gas stations are wide open, and the contents are almost emptied, leaving only empty shelves.

Li Xun didn't go ashore, but jumped onto the nearby fishing boat, turned over a few more boats, and came to the top of the outermost fishing boat, quietly waiting for the polar beast to arrive.

After a while, the two extreme beasts arrived at the same time. After seeing Li Xun on the top of the boat, one extreme beast jumped straight out of the water and rushed towards him, while the other extreme beast leaped to the shore, as if to copy his rear road.

Seeing the energy delivered to his door, Li Xun couldn't be polite, and shot two arrows in a row, killing the two polar beasts neatly.

The polar beast that rushed onto the boat fell from mid-air and landed on the side of the boat and fell into the water. Li Xun jumped down in a hurry and pulled out the fin arrows stuck in its head first.

Then, without even caring about extracting the energy, the sacrifice was carried out before the corpse of the polar beast completely sank into the water.

"Start the sacrifice..., receive the sacrifice..."

The system is powerful, and I don't mind that the sacrifice is still in the water. A white light flashed, and the corpse in the water disappeared.

The sacrifice consumed 350 sacrifice energy points, and received [-] sacrifice energy points as a reward, as well as a design blueprint of the Jiji submarine.

Li Xun curled his lips. Obviously, the so-called Jji-Ji submarine is aimed at the extreme beasts, so what enmity does the system have with the extreme beasts?

It was scary to think about it, but sooner or later he would figure it out.

Because the sacrifice was in a hurry, I didn't have time to see the difference between the polar beasts in the sea. Fortunately, there was another one on the shore.

Seeing that the danger was lifted, Lao Fan and Shen Yiqing also came from the gas station, while Daju was already circling around the corpse.

When Li Xun came to the corpse, he first extracted 250 units of genetic energy. Obviously, this extreme beast had evolved some kind of special ability, and the energy it contained was higher than that of ordinary extreme beasts.

After careful observation, the polar beasts in the sea are generally not much different from the polar beasts on land, with the same three horns on the forehead, red tentacles, spiny fins on the back, a long tail, and a body covered in scales.

There are also differences. The most obvious difference is the head. The head of this polar beast is no longer that of a lion, but the mouth is protruding, and the front is thinner and the back is thicker, which is similar to that of a killer whale.

The limbs are also different, and the length of its claws is almost half that of the land polar beast, reaching [-] centimeters.

Then there are two more fist-sized holes on both sides of its neck, which seem to be used for ventilation.

Lao Fan was also amazed at the side, obviously surprised by the extreme beast's ability to adapt so quickly and its rapid evolution for different environments.

After turning around for a few times, Daju didn't find anything. Li Xun removed the gold X1's energy magazine and recharged one of the cylinders. The number of energy bullets increased to four.

After cutting off the tentacles, the three entered the gas station again.

Li Xun frowned when he saw the open door of a nearby restaurant, several corpses lying inside, and the convenience store in the gas station. Obviously, the situation in the small town was not optimistic, and the problem of lack of supplies had already emerged. .

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Cheng Xi came back, accompanied by two young men.

Both of them are about 25 or 1.7 years old. The tall one has a simple and honest look, and the other is less than [-] meters, and the dark complexion is very shrewd.

After entering the convenience store, Cheng Xi said to Li Xun: "Boss, I met two people. This is Zhou Wei and this is Wang Zongwei. They live in the town and are very familiar with this place. I will bring them here to understand the situation. This is my boss."

Li Xun nodded at the two of them and said, "My name is Li Xun, please tell us about the current situation in the town?"

The dark-skinned Wang Zongwei said: "It's hard to say if there is no point. If you ask, we will answer."

"Alright, do you know how many people are still in the town?"

"There are 423 people left, old and young."

Li Xun was a little surprised, he just wanted to get a rough idea, but he didn't expect to get the exact number, and asked, "How do you know so clearly?"

"We found a safe spot where the rest of the town was."

"Understood, this place is not far from downtown Xiancheng, right? Do you know the situation over there?"

"Are you going to Xiancheng?" Wang Zongwei and the two were shocked when they heard this, and their faces changed color.

Li Xun, Lao Fan and the others looked at each other and asked, "What's the matter? What's the problem?"

"You'd better not go to Xiancheng, there are very powerful monsters over there, you can't get in."

"A very powerful monster? Is it the one on the west side of the town?" Li Xun asked.

"No, a flying monster, much more powerful than the one on the west side of the town." Wang Zongwei shook his head.

Li Xun and the others were slightly surprised that there were winged beasts in Xiancheng.
