Attacked
Baxia had no choice but to obey Tang Miao's orders, as it dared not disobey. Besides, it didn't really matter. If Zhao Manyan didn't care about it, it could simply slack off. After all, it wasn't a contract, and it wasn't like it couldn't find someone else to guard it.
Tang Miao didn't bother to ask Baxia what it was thinking. Since his second Contract Space didn't have Contract Beast yet, Tang Miao let Baxia stay there to recuperate.
Of course, this was also due to the combined Space Element magic of Snow Woman and Flame Ji; otherwise, Totem Beast Baxia, which was not bound by a contract and possessed a physical body, would naturally not have been able to enter.
After it entered, Tang Miao retrieved some medicine from the ship, took some from each of them, and threw it in. They were almost at Japan; they could buy more medicine if they ran out. There was no need to worry.
While these medicines cannot restore its strength to its peak, they can certainly heal its current injuries. Baxia is extremely weak right now; even among monarchs, it was once a top-tier being.
But now, compared to monarchs like the Dark Serpent and the Corpse of the Mountain Peak, it feels like it's a whole realm weaker.
The next day, the sun was shining brightly. Tang Miao, who was fast asleep, suddenly heard a loud "bang," and then his bed started shaking!
Tang Miao immediately lost most of her sleepiness, got up, dressed, and ran out. Meanwhile, Ai Jiangtu and the others were already at the ship's railing, watching what was underwater.
Tang Miao asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Upon seeing Tang Miao emerge, Zhao Manyan turned and replied, "Sea Monster are attacking us."
Tang Miao was taken aback, then said, "Then what are you all still watching here for? Aren't you going to fight back?"
Nan Jue said somewhat helplessly, "We do want to fight back, but the other party won't even show itself, and we don't even know what it is..."
"We can't just keep letting the other side keep hitting us, can we?"
As soon as Tang Miao finished speaking, he leaped out and jumped into the sea. Although he didn't know what kind of Demon Beast it was, he was certain of one thing: there were definitely no Monarch Level among them. If there were Monarch Level demons, they wouldn't have waited until Baxia's aura dissipated before attacking. Since there were no Monarch Level demons, Tang Miao naturally had nothing to fear.
After Tang Miao jumped into the sea, he saw a group of fish-men with arms ramming against the bottom of the ship. There weren't many of them, only seven in total.
Upon seeing Tang Miao, the seven fishmen rushed over.
A silver light emanated from Tang Miao's body, and then he threw them out one by one...
Meanwhile, on the shore, everyone was somewhat bewildered. Ai Jiangtu Nan Jue, in particular, were a little unaccustomed to Tang Miao's reckless behavior. In the army, someone like that would easily get beaten up!
After all, they hadn't even assessed the enemy's situation yet, and he just jumped down...
But actually, Tang Miao wasn't wrong in doing so. By continuing like this, they could figure out what was causing the trouble. If they ignored it, and the ship really malfunctioned, they would become food for these Sea Monsters...
Just then, several loud "bang bang bang!" sounds rang out as fish-men with big mouths and long whiskers were thrown into the air!
"It's Flame Merman!"
Jiang Yu immediately recognized what kind of Demon Beast it was and shouted out.
Ai Jiangtu hurriedly said, "Let's attack together and prevent them from entering the sea!"
Their naval warfare was clearly a weakness, a major weakness, so naturally, they chose to fight at sea.
Mu Ningxue immediately floated up and began to freeze the sea. Just as she was about to freeze, Tang Miao popped out from below and shouted, "Don't use Ice Element magic!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue was somewhat puzzled, but still chose to believe Tang Miao.
As Tang Miao arrived, three of the seven Flame Merman had already been dealt with. Ai Jiangtu also took care of two more, and the remaining two were burned to ashes by Tang Miao's flames...
After dealing with the seven mermen, Tang Miao looked at Zhao Manyan and said, "Quickly use your Water Element Magic to speed up the ship and get it away from here."
Zhao Manyan, unaware of the underwater conditions, quickly followed instructions.
After the ship accelerated, Nan Jue finally asked, "What happened? Haven't the Flame Merman underwater been dealt with yet?"
Tang Miao shook his head and said, "No, there are not only fishmen here, but also nearly a hundred General Level Sea Crab that have come here! Moreover, after scouting around, I discovered that there is also a Demon Race a few miles away, which should be the group of Flame Merman."
Then, Tang Miao looked at Mu Ningxue and said, "If it had been a frozen sea area, we would definitely have been detected, and we would likely have been in danger..."
"What!?"
Everyone was stunned to learn that Demon Race lived here. Wasn't this instructor a bit of a swindler? They might be alright on land, but what fighting power did they have at sea?
Tang Miao shook his head and said, "It should be fine. Those Flame Merman probably came out to hunt for food and that's when they found us. As for those Sea Crab, they probably smelled the blood."
Thanks to Zhao Manyan's acceleration, the ship's speed did indeed increase several times over.
However, his magical energy was ultimately limited, and it was exhausted in less than half an hour.
Fortunately, every cloud has a silver lining. They had already entered the Safe Zone of Little Japan. Since the ship had been registered beforehand and bore the name of Little Japan, it entered the Safe Zone smoothly. Because it was Safe Zone, the group Little Japan longer needed to worry about being attacked by Sea Monster. The speed of the ship was no longer a concern.
After arriving at the Safe Zone sea area, we saw a number of fishing boats engaged in salvage operations.
There are two types of fishing boats in China: one is a fishing boat that uses machinery to catch fish, throwing thousands of fish into their freezing rooms.
Another type is the very primitive fishing boat, with one or two fishermen and very simple tools. There are many of these simple fishing boats near Fei Niao City.
While Little Japan also has traditional fishing boats, most have become mechanized. They have a wide variety of ways to catch fish, and their fishing industry is quite developed.
This area of Safe Zone waters is filled with salvage vessels, all painted gray. When this white cruise ship from Huaxia sailed into this area, it looked somewhat out of place.
Tang Miao ultimately didn't have much affection for this country. In fact, you could say he had almost no good feelings towards it... in a very simple way. Even the only thing he liked wasn't the short, stocky people here.
Upon entering the port and stepping onto solid land, everyone finally felt a sense of peace. Now, they were no longer afraid of any of the Sea Monster!
