The strongest dragon emperor in history
Chapter 33 Eight Mile Dongting
Chapter 33
In a sense, the "Jianghe class" warships that appeared now not only did not pose any threat to Li Jing, but instead became his umbrella.
With these aquatic killers cruising in the Yangtze River, those high-level aquatic monsters can only tuck their tails and shrink in their nests under the water. In this way, for Li Jing, the danger along the way is reduced by more than half.
In the Yangtze River, Li Jing's speed can really be brought into full play. He only arrived in Yichang waters in the morning, and at sunset in the afternoon, he had already appeared at the mouth of Dongting Lake in Yueyang.
At this time, most of the high-level aquatic monsters in Dongting Lake have been wiped out, so the mouth of the river has become a place where humans focus on guarding. They want to prevent the high-level monsters in the Yangtze River from entering Dongting Lake through this place, and they must also prevent Dongting Lake from entering Dongting Lake. The high-level monsters inside fled to the Yangtze River.
There are as many as a dozen "Jianghe-class" warships cruising near the river estuary day and night. Three river barriers made of thick and fine steel pillars are like three combs across the waterway of the river estuary. Monster beasts with a girth of more than one meter in diameter cannot pass through without destroying the fence.
After Li Jing saw the first fence from a distance, he hurried back to the Yangtze River.
He knew better than those monsters that there must be underwater monitors and hidden torpedo launchers near the fence.
As long as he was hit by a torpedo, Li Jing's current life would definitely be a toy, so even though he guessed that it was unlikely that humans would target his little fifth-level monster, he still didn't dare to use his life to test it.
"The waterway is not good, can't I go by land? If you have the ability, you can build a blockade line on land hundreds of kilometers along the coast like you did in Wudang Mountain."
After muttering a few words bitterly in her heart, Li Jing shook her head and went ashore more than ten kilometers away.
There is no moon tonight, and it can even be said that you can't see your fingers. This kind of night is suitable for sneaking in.
The surrounding fields are pitch black, and as far as the eye can see, there is a faint light coming from somewhere in the western sky, which is the light from the searchlight on the human sentry tower.
Li Jing quickly walked through the weeds in the wilderness. The dark night gave him great cover, but it also restricted his vision, so he could only head towards the south with a dull head.
He desperately wanted to meet a river now, even if it was a canal or a stream.
Around this Dongting Lake, as long as there is flowing water, it will definitely be able to enter Dongting Lake through this waterway.
There is a lot of water in Hunan Province, especially on the Dongting Lake Plain in the north, so Li Jing soon found a small river no more than five meters wide as he wished.
From some remaining cement slabs on both sides of the small river, it can be known that this is an abandoned irrigation canal. This kind of canal is very common on the plains, and they are usually transformed from the original stream.
In times of drought, farmers can pump water from Dongting Lake into the canal to irrigate the drought-stricken crops along the canal.
Of course, humans basically don't have access to such primitive irrigation facilities now, and humans in several major urban agglomerations now eat high-yield genetically modified rice.
This kind of rice can be ripened once a month in the greenhouse factory. Although the taste and nutritional value are not as good as the previous rice, it can still be used to fill the stomach.
Because the place Li Jing chose to go ashore was not very far from Dongting Lake, so after swimming along the water for half an hour, he arrived at the destination of the trip - Dongting Lake.
Li Jing actually doesn't know much about Dongting Lake, he only knows that this lake is the second largest freshwater lake in China, and the southern capital of the six major urban agglomerations in China is located in the southeast of this lake.
This understanding alone is obviously not enough, he intends to turn this "Eight Hundred Miles Dongting" into his own territory, so after thinking about it while looking at the shimmering lake, he has a decision in his heart.
"Although this Dongting Lake is big, it's not difficult for me to go around it. Let's go around the lake first. This will also help me understand the situation along the coast."
It took Li Jing three days to circle Dongting Lake.
Originally, at his speed, one day was enough to circle the lake, but he was not rushing, but to inspect the coastal environment, so three days was necessary.
After three days of observation around the lake, Li Jing discovered that human activities have expanded to the edge of Dongting Lake. He found many fortifications under construction along the southeast coast of Dongting Lake, including several large waterworks factories.
However, at present, human beings' use of Dongting Lake is limited to the southeast coast, and the power of a city in Nandu is not enough to complete the huge project of turning the entire Dongting Lake into an inner lake.
Moreover, during this round of observation around the lake, Li Jing did not find a high-level monster above the seventh rank, and even found very few monsters of the sixth rank. It is undoubtedly extremely abnormal.
"It seems that the situation is much worse than I thought, but since I have taken a fancy to this place, I can only make the people of Nandu feel wronged. At most, I will leave a water channel for them in the future."
Li Jing didn't just say this casually, although he has always tried to avoid fighting with humans, but that was the strategy he chose when he was fledgling.
Judging from his current growth in strength, as long as he is promoted to a high-level monster, it will be difficult for human warriors of the ninth rank to kill him in the waters.
And based on his understanding of various human weapons, the chances of humans wanting to kill him with hot weapons are even lower than killing an innate monster.
Li Jing chose the northwest shore of Dongting Lake as a temporary shelter.
The place where he is located is a peninsula that goes deep into the lake area. Not far from here is the Yangtze River to the north, the western Hunan area covered with mountains and rivers to the west, and the main lake area of Dongting Lake to the southeast.
Occupying such a precious place, he can enter the territory of humans and other monsters on the southeast side, and retreat into the Yangtze River and the mountains in western Hunan. Not to mention being invincible, he does not need to worry about being chased by powerful enemies.
However, all of this only exists in Li Jing's own thoughts. The reality is that he has not even figured out the specific situation around the place where he lives.
What's more ironic is that when he killed a fourth-order silver carp and occupied the water hole where the silver carp lived, a Chinese alligator wandering around smelled blood and killed it.
This Chinese alligator is about ten meters long, and its aura has reached the sixth level. After it found Li Jing, it launched an attack without even saying hello.
As a native alligator in China, although the Chinese alligator is incomparable with the famous alligator and Nile crocodile, it is still a well-deserved overlord in the water on this one-third of an acre of land in the Yangtze River Basin.
Before Li Jing came to Dongting Lake, one of the two monsters he was most worried about was the alligator, and the other was the Chinese sturgeon.
These two prehistoric ancient creatures are one of the few large carnivorous freshwater animals in China. Most of the powerful aquatic monsters in the Yangtze River Basin today evolved from these two ancient creatures.
The alligator is very good at water combat. When it jumped at Li Jing, it didn't directly open its huge mouth to bite like an ordinary crocodile, but first waved a pair of sharp claws to Li Jing's long snake body.
It was its seemingly useless pounce that made the scales of Li Jing's whole body tense up. He knew that this time he had met a real opponent.
ps: I am so tired of writing!But I think it's worth it. I think I have made great progress in describing beast fights in this book, hey!It's a pity that there are not many readers who like Alien Beast Stream!
