Chapter two hundred and seventy-four, the legend of the mermaid
The dark clouds in the sky were getting heavier and heavier, and occasionally lightning crawled through the clouds, tearing the clouds apart and falling down raindrops.
Qi Wufei carried Zuo Yiming and fled from the battlefield with Zhang Qiyue and Fan Wujiu.
I don’t know if the singer stopped singing, or the sea breeze was too strong, and only the roar of the wind and waves were heard above the sea, and there was no more sing of the sirens.
The battle was actually very short, but Qi Wufei's physical strength and mana were almost exhausted.
In all the battles that have been experienced, there has never been a single battle that has exhausted him so much.
Fortunately, the monsters did not pursue them, so they could fly slightly more easily and not fly too high.
After flying for about dozens of miles, there were a few lights ahead, flying towards them.
Gan Pengfei brought people to pick them up.
Gan Pengfei's reaction speed can no longer be said to be slow.
His location is at least 150 miles away from the scene. If he had not used a dedicated signal flare, it would be difficult to perceive the sword energy and mana fluctuations on the island just based on the fluctuations of the sword energy and mana. Even if he had sensed it, it would be difficult to judge what had happened.
No one would have thought that with the strength of a complete seven-man team, he would sneak attack an island with more than twenty sea monsters, and he would encounter an ambush, and he would not even have time to send a distress signal.
What made Gan Pengfei feel was the sudden change in the Siren Song.
From the dolphin sound that was swaying, he knew that the two teams sent out must have encountered danger.
He made a quick decision and rushed forward with the people. After a while, he met Qi Wufei halfway.
"What's going on?" Gan Pengfei looked at Zuo Yiming who was unconscious and said anxiously.
"We were ambushed and the left webmaster was injured."
Qi Wufei briefly explained their experience.
"Where are three more people?" Gan Pengfei asked.
Qi Wufei remained silent.
Gan Pengfei understood, his face was as tight as a chopping board covered with knife marks.
"You guys take the website manager Zuo back, I'll pick up Liu Yu."
After saying that, he took people to the direction of Island 1.
Qi Wufei did not hesitate and handed Zuo Yiming to Fan Wujiu, and followed him with Zhang Qiyue.
Although there is a quarrel between him and Liu Yu because of Zhu Taichun's incident, and there is probably no chance of reconciliation from now on, now is not the time to act voluntarily.
He doesn't care whether Liu Yu dies or not, but Liu Yu has six people around him. These are the new forces of the Chenghuang Department of Honggu County. One more is saved.
Although Gan Pengfei is brave, he may not have any good solutions when encountering the magic sound like the Siren Song. Even if he can resist it himself, what should he do if so many ordinary team members around him do?
Currently, the only one who can fight against Magic Sound is "Xi Ti Ruoli".
As soon as Qi Wufei chased after him, two sword lights flew towards him. It was Liu Yu and one of his subordinates.
The two of them were torn clothes and were soaked in sea water, looking very embarrassed.
When Liu Yu saw Gan Pengfei and Qi Wufei standing beside Gan Pengfei, his face looked very ugly.
"What's going on? What about the others?" Gan Pengfei asked.
"There are ambushes around the island, and we were attacked by electric eels. Others..."
Liu Yu lowered his head.
Gan Pengfei was furious and said, "Then why did you escape?"
"That Siren Song can confuse my mind. If the rhythm of the song suddenly changed, I wouldn't have escaped."
"Seven people went, five died. As the leader of the team, do you still have the face to come back alive?!"
Gan Pengfei was really angry.
The idea was made by Liu Yu, and Liu Yu has been with him for many years and has participated in many operations. He shouldn't be so careless.
If Qi Wufei was young and had no experience in leading the team, it would be okay to cause such a big loss, and at least he brought four living people out.
Liu Yu was said by Gan Pengfei, and his blood surged, and his face turned into pig's liver.
But Gan Pengfei's energy is restored, so he can't slap Liu Yu to death at this time.
He could only glar at Liu Yu fiercely, suppress his anger, and hissed: "Stop the team."
Everyone flew back to Lingxi Town in a group.
Gan Pengfei first checked Zuo Yiming's injuries.
Zuo Yiming was not in danger of life, but his qi and blood attacked his heart for a moment and fainted, but his eye that had been pecked by an osprey must not be saved.
After taking the pill for Zuo Yiming, Gan Pengfei summoned everyone to a meeting.
A total of eight people were lost in this operation, including seven members of the City God Security Department, and Xu Lai, inspector of Qianlong Bay Sea Patrol Station.
Qi Wufei and Liu Yu made detailed reports on the situation respectively, and the other three people who came back alive made some additional additions.
After listening, Gan Pengfei fell into deep thought.
Wen Liang sneered: "Yesterday Captain Qi specifically proposed, is it possible for monsters to deliberately lure the enemy? Who said it was impossible? Who issued a military order there, saying that this battle will be successful? Some people are greedy for me, but do not take the lives of their subordinates seriously. Do you know how difficult it is for them to practice to this day, how much spiritual medicine they have taken? How much effort has it taken? How many years have they consumed?"
Wen Liang is not taking advantage of the situation, he is really angry.
It doesn't matter how many people Liu Yu and the first team died, but the three people who followed Zuo Yiming were his subordinates.
In his eyes, these three people were killed by Liu Yu's greed for merit.
Liu Yu's face was extremely ugly, but he could not refute it.
Gan Pengfei said: "Okay, now is not the time to hold the responsibility accountable. Let's talk about it, what should I do next?"
Wen Liang said: "I think it's better to report to the Session and send more people. We lost eight people at once, and now we can't even deploy the Tiangang formation. The number of monsters is still increasing. If they launch a large-scale attack at this time, it will be difficult for us to resist."
Gan Pengfei said: "I have called Director Qin just now, and I will write another specific report later."
Qi Wufei said: "In fact, the most important thing is the sirens song. The things on the island are obviously summoned by the song, and the song can charm people's minds. If this thing is not removed, even if reinforcements come, it will still be very troublesome."
Gan Pengfei said: "This sound is indeed very strange. I have never heard of any siren who can make such a charming sound, which is already more than the devil's way."
When Qi Wufei heard the Demonic Taoism, his heart was shocked and he thought of Mo Fu.
But when you think about it, these two things seem to be impossible to connect.
Fan Wujiu suddenly said, "Is it possible that it is a mermaid? I heard from my master that there is a kind of mermaid in the sea who is very good at singing and often uses singing to confuse passing pedestrians and ships."
Qi Wufei remembered a Western myth that he had heard in his previous life.
Isn’t Lao Fan’s master an old demon in Black Mountain? This guy knows a lot!
Gan Pengfei shook his head and said, "Are you talking about mermaids? Mermaids are not real mermaids. They often confuse people on the sea, but they can only confuse ordinary mortals and will never affect the minds of practitioners. Moreover, the mermaids are not very advanced sea tribes, and it is impossible to summon so many sirens."
Qi Wufei couldn't help asking, "Where is the real mermaid?"
"The real mermaid..." Gan Pengfei thought for a while, "The Di people, west of Jianmu, is a very ancient legend. The Di people have disappeared long ago, so naturally there is no way to start with the mermaids. It is said that there were once raising them in the Dragon Palace and being used as the Dragon King's playful pet. As for whether it is true or not, I don't know."
"In other words, there is really a race like mermaid?" Qi Wufei said.
"Mermaid?" Gan Pengfei smiled unconsciously, "You really know how to name it. Legend has it that you call mermaids, so you have to add the word "beauty" in front of it."
Fan Wujiu said: "My master seems to have called that too."
