Qi Le

Chapter 77: Humpback Whale

In the torrential rain, a silver light cut through the clouds.

Qi Le turned on the virtual light screen, and the aircraft moved forward at a constant speed, passing over the forest.

After the rainy season began, the water level of the river soared, and the stream that dried up in the dry season flowed through the forest again and flowed into the pond that had bottomed out.

The three waterways pass in parallel among the forests, and finally converge to one place, forming a waterfall on the cliff, which is surging and magnificent.

A dozen other creeks and tributaries swelled, widening their waterways across the verdant meadows.At the place where the water flow is the densest, five or six trees are surrounded to form an isolated island.

Looking down from above, you can see the alien beasts trapped on the island.

The strange beasts gathered together, and their lives were not in danger for the time being.But if you want to survive, you must go through the turbulent water, otherwise you will not be able to escape the danger, and you can only be trapped here to die.

The rainy season has just begun, and District [-] is already looking like this.

Qi Le can imagine that if this development continues, floods will be inevitable, and how many species will be in trouble.

After watching it for a while, the cat father was inevitably a little scared.

If Black Pine and Red Oak hadn't been persuaded to lead the clansmen to move into the underground bunker ahead of time, they might have encountered trouble and been trapped like a strange beast on an isolated island.

This is by no means unfounded worry.

Not to mention the big river that passes through the junction of District [-] and District [-], the amount of water gathered in District [-] alone is enough to cause a disaster.

In such bad weather, few exotic animals and native species went out.Experienced populations will store food in advance and find a safe place to hide.

Those alien beasts trapped on the "isolated island" may not have made preparations in advance. It can only be said that it happened that their territory happened to be located where the water gathered.

No other species were encountered along the way, so the plan to open up new business channels naturally failed.But Dad Cat is not discouraged. Opportunities can be created. If you can’t do it once, you can do it a second time or a third time.

The aircraft was moving forward in the rain, and Qi Le was already prepared so that there would be no "surprises" along the way. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the border of District [-], he ran into an acquaintance.

Not long ago, Yasi and Alan added a new pair of siblings. In order to reduce the burden on the group, the brothers would occasionally go hunting in the rain.They went out when the rain died down, chasing a herd of ungulates, not wanting to run too far and be blocked by the heavy rain.

The two brothers had to give up most of the prey, grabbed the two lightest ones, and flew into the sky with wings.

Seeing the discarded prey, Yas couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

If you get the metal box from the squirrel, maybe you can bring a few more.Even though this kind of space equipment does not have the function of keeping fresh, the temperature in the rainy season is not high, and with the speed of him and Alan, there is no need to worry about the fresh meat going bad on the way.

However, the opportunity has been missed, and there is nothing more to think about.

Yasi could only make a secret note that next time he traded with Squirrel, he must exchange for a few space devices.

The two brothers spread their wings and braved the wind and rain, flying along the edge of the forest.Just after flying a hundred meters, a silver light appeared in front of his eyes.

With the eyesight of a barn owl, it can clearly see that the person inside the protective cover is by no means a foreign race.

"It's Qi Le!" Yalan immediately flapped his wings and uttered a high-pitched cry when he met an acquaintance.

Aspen wanted to call his brother to stop him, telling him that he might not be able to hear him due to the heavy rain.And judging from the direction the aircraft is heading, it is clear that it intends to leave District [-]. It is likely that there is something important to do, so it is best not to disturb it halfway.

Unexpectedly, before he stopped Alan, the aircraft had already slowed down, turned around in the air, and flew towards the two of them.

"Yas, Alan." Through the shield, Qi Le waved his paws at the two of them.

"Qi Le, where are you going?" Brother Barn Owl flew closer, and the protective cover just unfolded from the edge, helping the two of them to block the falling rainwater.

"I'm planning to go to the beach." Qi Le sat on the edge of the aircraft, pointed in the direction of the ninth district, and said, "I need to go there. Where are you going?"

"We just finished hunting and are going home."

Yas turned into a humanoid form in mid-air, stood on Alan's back, carried the prey on his shoulders, combed the wet hair on his forehead with one hand, and icy rainwater slid down his cheeks, winding over his neck and his strong body. chest.

"I heard the seagull say, are you doing business with killer whales?"

"Yes." Qi Le didn't intend to hide it, "They need a lot of potions. I went to the alien territory a few days ago and exchanged a lot of crystal nuclei."

The plan to build a community has not yet started, but as far as the cat father expected, the raptor is an indispensable part.

Not to mention the knowledge of golden eagles and goshawks, just take the two barn owls in front of you as an example. They can prepare antidotes and have done a lot of research on medicines. If conditions permit, they should be able to develop their own products with the help of Blue Star resources. .

So far, Qi Le has always purchased potions from foreign races, spending a lot of crystal cores.If the birds of prey improve their abilities and formulate new potions, there may not be a day when they will be sold to the outside world.

During the days of living in the base, Qi Le gained a deeper understanding of Blue Star's resources and general situation.

From the research of Elfa and other medical officers, the cat dad found that the environment and species of Blue Star are very special. If they can be used properly, it will definitely be a monopoly business without losing money!

However, this is easier said than done.

With Bluestar's current status, in order to monopolize the business, apart from its own strength, it also needs a reliable partner with a considerable background.

Take the crystal nucleus as an example, if there is no strict order from Shiar, the poaching situation will be a hundred times worse.Even with the Thunder method, similar situations are still repeated.

Don't want the cornucopia to be coveted by others, before you have absolute strength and confidence, you must act in a low-key manner.

"I'll probably stay by the seaside for a while," Qi Le said.

With the aircraft around, bad weather is no problem.

With the permission of the sea turtle and the care of the mutated bat, he can choose to camp on the shore or on the island and hunt in the nearby waters.

Both sea beasts and sea shrimp are good things, and sea fish and mussel meat are no exception.These seafood are rich in energy and can fill the stomach. If they are brought back to land, whether they are sold fresh or dried, they can be sold at a good price.

For example, the two barn owls in front of you are potential high-quality buyers.

Thinking of this, Qi Le opened the space button, took out the squirrel's dried shrimp, and handed it to the barn owl brother opposite.

"This is dried sea prawns. The taste is not as good as fresh ones, but the taste is still very good. You can try it. If you think it is good, I can bring you some when I come back from the beach."

Yas and Alan were not polite, they tore open the shrimp on the spot, and the two brothers divided each into half.

Dried shrimp is not as chewy as fresh shrimp, but as Qi Le said, the delicious taste is still unforgettable.As the shrimp meat entered the stomach, a gentle force spread from the body. Yas and Yalan paused and looked at each other, knowing that it was not an illusion, and they were a little surprised.

The two-meter-long sea prawn shrinks in size after drying, not enough for two barn owls to fit between their teeth.

After swallowing the last bite of shrimp meat, Yasi said, "If possible, I would like to buy more sea shrimp. The price is negotiable and will definitely satisfy you."

Hearing these words, Qi Le smiled, rolled his eyes, put his front paws together, and curled his tail over his back paws.

"The price I offered to Morpho is one crystal nucleus and two sea shrimps, but they are fresh shrimps."

"We are acquaintances, and we can give certain discounts."

"For every five crystal nuclei you pay, you will get a free gift. You can choose sea fish and clams. If you want sea animal meat, you can also discuss it. I will try my best to satisfy it. However, I heard from sea turtles that most sea animal meat is poisonous and cannot resist toxins." Best not to eat it."

"If the sea prawns are dried..."

"We want fresh shrimp." Alan said first.

"no problem!"

The two parties have been doing business for a long time, and they don't need to go through too many detours. They are straightforward and quickly reach an agreement.

Qi Le took out the remaining dried shrimps, counted them, added a few pieces of clam meat, and gave them half sold and half given away to the brothers.Yas was not stingy either, he also left a strange beast for Qi Le in addition to the crystal nucleus.

"Dried shrimp can be strung together with rope." Qi Le opened the space button, and took out the straw rope and net bag woven by squirrels, "You can also put it in the net bag. No need to pay, it's free."

The two brothers thanked Qi Le, and just after packing the dried shrimps, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, and the rain intensified again.

Yas and Alan hurried back to the territory, quickly said goodbye to Qi Le, grabbed their net bags, and disappeared after the rain.

Qi Le closed the protective cover, took a look at the gray sky, and was sure that the heavy rain would not stop for a while, and it would be difficult for a similar situation to happen again. He yawned lazily, and slid his fingers across the virtual light screen to set the autopilot Program, then hugged the kitten, ready to take a nap.

Tai Sui was hanging on the kitten's back, Heidou's eyes were half-closed, apparently also a little sleepy.

"Ha——" Qi Le yawned again, hugged the balled kitten, and licked the kitten's furry ears.

He didn't know what happened to others, but he would always get sleepy on rainy days.

Especially at night, listening to the sound of rain falling and hitting metal panels, he always slept better, and often had a dreamless night.

"Dad, there will be a strange beast." The kitten turned over, with its four paws facing the sky, exposing its round belly, and said while yawning, "Catch it and give it to the three tigers."

Qi Le put his paw on the back of the kitten's head and rubbed his forehead.

"With such a heavy rain, the alien beast will not come out. The prepared alien beast meat is enough, and Yasi gave it, so don't worry."

Even if there is no heavy rain, after several previous battles, it is estimated that the alien beasts in the ninth and eighth districts have already heard the news, and they will immediately avoid the aircraft when they see it, and they will take the initiative to deliver food and warmth.

The rain hit the protective cover, making a sound.

Strands of rain lines merged together to form an irregular water curtain that washed over the exterior of the aircraft.

The two fur balls leaned together, snored quickly, and fell asleep.Tai Sui is pulled into thin slices to cover the two hairballs.Heidou's eyes were still half-closed, paying attention to the situation outside the protective cover.

The aircraft moved forward at a constant speed, passed through the heavy rain, and soon left the eleventh district, crossed the sky over the lake of death, and flew into the ninth district.

The hazy mist is dense on the surface of the lake, and the rain falls into it, as if swallowed by the mist, it disappears in an instant.Only the continuous sound can prove that under the mist, there is indeed a huge lake that has existed for a long time on the border between the two districts.

In the command tower of the base, Shiar folded his arms around his chest and leaned against the edge of the table with his long legs, staring at the images on the screen in a daze.Platinum-blond long hair hung down behind her, covered with a hazy halo.

Looking at the aircraft passing through the rain curtain, the captain clicked on the virtual light screen, locked on the target, and enlarged the image.

Through the semicircular protective cover, you can vaguely see the balls of hair.

The picture freezes, the captain turns around and sinks into the command chair.Turning around the back of the chair, crossing the long legs, supporting the chin with one hand, and putting the other hand on the leg, gently holding it with the fingers, then releasing it again, the familiar feeling of emptiness surged again.

At this moment, the communicator that was thrown aside flashed blue light, and the picture on the screen shook a few times, and soon became distorted.When it became clear, the hairball disappeared and was replaced by the image of Governor Alecto.

The captain was in a bad mood, and the pheromone spread instantly.It's like the weather turns from sunny to cloudy, and the surrounding temperature drops by five degrees.

Across the screen, the Governor was unaware of this, and said: "Siyar, Abbos has agreed to my proposal and decided to put pressure on the Parliament and the Senate to pass your application. Sakya hesitated, The attitude is currently unknown."

Shial took a deep breath, took out a potion and took it.Then he stood up, walked to the screen, put his hands behind his back, and saluted Governor Alecto.

"Thank you for your help, Your Excellency."

"Call me uncle!"

"……uncle."

"very good."

Every time the uncle and nephew meet, they have to go through this experience, which has become a fixed "item".

"Sakya didn't make a clear statement, but I can see that he is very concerned about the potion." Governor Alecto has a serious expression, wrapping the scepter in his palm, "If he can give tangible evidence, he will immediately change his attitude. Even if we don't directly fight with the mother planet, we will stand firmly on our side."

Weaknesses are mastered by others, no one can accept it.

For the population of Constellation [-], this medicine will not be directly fatal, but the harm it causes is immeasurable.

"I understand." Shiar nodded, "I will let Alpha speed up. In addition, the second test report has been prepared, including new experimental data, and will be sent to you later."

"The faster the better." Governor Alecto said, "If Saga can be won over, the mother planet will be under more pressure. I will pass your application quickly, so don't worry about any bad ideas from the Parliament and the Senate. .Even the mother star fleet will weigh it, and will no longer consider the stupid plan of stationing in Blue Star."

In fact, Governor Alecto couldn't believe it when he received the news, thinking that someone was joking with him.

How short-sighted and stupid do you have to be to come up with this idea?

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.In the end, it can only be attributed to someone being blinded by greed and unable to think normally, so he made such a ridiculous move.

"One more thing, Dulwich has already set off from the station, and he will arrive at Blue Star in a short time. According to the previous contract, he will hunt sea beasts. You can send someone to supervise. If there is any problem, please contact me immediately. "

"I will."

The two reached an agreement, the light of the communicator weakened, and the image of Alecto disappeared from the screen.

The screen switched again, but there was only torrential rain, and there was no trace of the aircraft or hair balls at all.

Shial was about to turn on the virtual light screen when the communicator rang for the second time. Gaspers sent a report from the airport. Some smugglers tried to block the signal of the detector without permission and took several native cubs out of Blue Star. .

"Spaceship and personnel were seized."

"very good."

Shial's courtship period is coming to an end, and the spread of pheromones is even more difficult to control.At this moment, the captain is in an extremely bad mood and needs to relieve his "depression". These smugglers have become the best targets for venting.

After the signal was cut off, Gaspers looked at Sanders, thinking of the current situation of the captain, he had a bad premonition.

"Do you want to contact Alpha..."

Before Sanders finished speaking, Shiar had already stepped into the airport.

The wind blew up the hem of his robe, and his icy blue eyes were condensed with frost.

Obviously, in order to save time, the captain chose to "cut the corner" and fly directly from the conning tower to the airport.

Ignoring everyone's surprised gazes, Xial walked to a virtual light screen, stood still, and quickly slid his finger on the screen.In less than a moment, a newly built dock opened, revealing a silver spaceship equipped with laser cannons.

"Hial?"

Seeing the spaceship appear and realizing what the captain was going to do, Sanders and Gaspers glanced at each other and swallowed subconsciously.

At the same time, Xial had already reached the take-off point, opened the hatch, and entered the spaceship.

The next moment, the spaceship soared into the sky, the bottom deck opened, and a white tractor beam shot out rapidly, wrapping around the smuggling ship, dragging the latter out of the airport, and dragging it to the sky.

There was silence in the airport at first, and then noisy voices sounded.

Those who knew the captain's style began to speculate that it would take a few shots to end the battle.Those who didn't know the inside story looked at each other in blank dismay, and felt a little uneasy, not understanding what Xial's actions meant.

"That silver spaceship is equipped with three laser cannons, and its firepower is comparable to that of a medium-sized battleship." A soldier said, looking at the merchants and pirates around him, he raised his eyebrows casually, "The smuggling ship that was taken away violated the law." The base decree must be punished. It was originally supposed to be in the base, but judging from what the commander meant, he probably intended to give them another 'chance'."

"Opportunity?" The merchant's throat suddenly became dry, and his scalp felt numb.

"Fight face to face. If you win, you can escape. If you lose, there will be no bones left." The soldier smiled, showing his sharp white teeth, "That's why we bet, how many shots will end the battle. How about it, do you want to gamble too?"

The businessman shook his head quickly.

The soldiers felt bored, turned around and left the airport, and continued their patrol mission.

The businessman and the pirates stood where they were, their expressions were not very good-looking.Because they were too surprised, several merchants from Star Six grew hard armor, and even their tentacles rolled up.

"Violation of base regulations?"

"I heard they are smuggling blue star species."

"Look at this, the people in the boat don't want to live."

"I thought the commander would leave the spaceship..."

After figuring out the cause and effect of the incident, the merchants dispersed one after another, some went to the airport together, and some returned to the spaceship, preparing to leave Blue Star.

The pirates had different expressions, and the few people who had been in contact with the smuggling ship were even more heavy-hearted and staggered.Looking at the gray sky again, I decided to give up the previous plan, what higher price, what to earn another spaceship, all XX!No matter how much you earn, your life is not as important as your life!

After this incident, Siyar's reputation became even higher, and the destruction of the smuggling ship was attributed to a strong deterrent to other pirates and smugglers.

As everyone knows, the truth of the matter is not so.

There is indeed shock and deterrence, but in the final analysis, it is just that the courtship period of the captain has not yet ended, and his emotions suddenly exploded. fireworks.

At the same time, Qi Le drove the aircraft through the ninth district and entered the eighth district.

As the cat father said, because of the heavy rain, there were no traces of any strange animals along the way, which disappointed the eager kitten.

After passing a pine forest, golden sandstone and a long coastline appear in front of you.

Aiming at a towering cliff on the shore, Qi Le controlled the aircraft to lower the altitude, making sure that this place was indeed familiar, and then speeded up, flying forward along the dotted reefs.

The aircraft crossed the vast ocean, and Dad Cat looked down, trying his best to search for the whales.

I don't know how long it took to fly, and a huge figure suddenly passed under the water.

The cat dad acted faster than he thought, and immediately pulled the aircraft up.The kitten was very excited, lying on the edge of the aircraft, looking down constantly, and meowing.

As the height rises, you can see the shadows in full view.

Father Cat couldn't help but gasp.

This guy is not as big as a blue whale, but he is scary enough.

Counting from head to tail, it is at least two lengths of killer whales.The back is arched upwards, and there are long and narrow flippers on both sides of the body, with jagged edges and sharp barnacles on the surface. When sliding underwater, it looks like two huge wings.

Qi Le was watching intently, when the black shadow suddenly jumped out of the sea, stayed in the air for a moment, and then fell sideways back into the water.During the movement, a group of white waves was set off, and the momentum was astonishing.

What appeared in front of Dad Cat was a humpback whale.

The group of killer whales that could not be found before also appeared at this time.

The female leader took her sister and daughter around to the right side of the humpback whale, and the other two male killer whales approached the left side of the whale.One of them is the two tigers who have met once, and the other one is a bit strange.

The baby killer whale was taken out of the battle ring, protected by a sub-adult female killer whale, and watched from a distance.

The speed of the killer whale was astonishing. In less than two seconds, it rushed to the side of the humpback whale, trying to use its body to press the target into the water.However, the closer the distance, the more cautious the killer whales are. During the attack, they will avoid the tail and flippers of the humpback whales to avoid accidental scratches.

The humpback whale was pinched from two sides, without the slightest anxiety. Taking advantage of the orca's position at the back, it suddenly raised its tail and slammed it down with force. A large vortex appeared in the water, setting off rows of waves.

The orcas were forced to back off and the humpbacks came up again.

It was only then that Qi Le could see clearly that there was still a small whale guarding under the humpback's flippers.While the killer whale retreated, the calf swam quickly and lay on the back of the adult humpback whale.

It's a lady, too.

Sitting on the edge of the aircraft, Dad Cat was shocked by the battle.

Judging from the current situation, neither the killer whale nor the humpback whale seems to want to put each other to death. Instead, they fight for a while and stop for a while, then swing their pectoral fins at the cubs and make unique calls.

Qi Le looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't see what happened.

what are they doing?

fight?

Was there such a fight?

During the intermission, Aisha found the aircraft above her head, quickly stuck her head out of the water, and said hello to Qi Le.

"Aisha, what are you doing? I remember you said before that you don't eat native species." Father Cat asked loudly.

"We are fighting, and by the way teach the children to fight." The female leader replied.

Hearing the conversation between the two, the humpback whale swam over and sprayed a jet of water from the top of its head to express its friendship to Qi Le.

The little humpback whale followed its mother, wagging its tail, and asked curiously, "You are so small, can you really kill sea beasts?"

The kitten shouted dissatisfied: "Daddy is amazing!"

Snapped!

Before the little whale could speak again, it was slapped by its mother, which was not insignificant.

"I'm sorry, the child is rude." The humpback whale mother looked at Qi Le, apologized, and then pressed the head of the little whale with her flippers, "Apologize!"

The little whale wagged its tail, very reluctantly.

The mother whale didn't intend to indulge her at all, she stuck the calf's body with her flippers, and the other one took a few shots, and said in a deep voice, "Apologize, or you won't be able to eat for a day!"

"Feel sorry."

With tears in his eyes, the little whale finally succumbed to the threat of food.

Cat Dad finally confirmed that in the world of whales, Spartan education must be followed.My mother's force value is against the sky, she must be obedient and obedient, and if she dares to commit a bear, she will be beaten until she is honest.

After apologizing, the little humpback whale was depressed for a few seconds, then recovered quickly, and called to the kitten: "Come and fight, let's play together!"

The cat dad was very speechless.

What is this? Is the scar forgotten?

People say that the memory of fish is only a few seconds, but whales are mammals, so it doesn't make sense.
