Chapter 30 Ghost-Faced Four-Legged Fish

“These are bone-eating water spiders. They may be small, but if you get tangled up with a group of them, you’ll have a big problem. They’ll crawl in and out of your body.

Have you seen ants break down food? It will be like that!” Sun Chengshan introduced, making the disciples shudder.

“Then what do we do, Master?” Iron He asked nervously as sweat started to form on his forehead.

He was actually more calm than the female disciples in the team who seemed to have a natural fear of these spiders. All of them were pale and trembling. They were so afraid that they could not speak.

Wang Yu also felt that it was troublesome. These water spiders had a huge life force at the bottom of the sea.

Only a small portion of them had been washed ashore, but the number was already enormous, almost covering the entire beach.

A few inexperienced martial artists had already been affected. They were entangled by these water spiders and fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

Their bodies were being disintegrated and eaten up by these spiders. No one could save them in this situation.

If no one restrained the spiders, thesy would charge into the town and turn into an unprecedented major disaster.

“Don’t worry too much,” Sun Chengshan added, noticing the disciples’ panic.

“Although these water spiders look scary, they can’t leave the sea for too long. If they don’t get replenishment from the seawater for more than five minutes, they will dry up and can no longer function, so they can’t enter the island town.

If not for that, our island town would have long been destroyed by these water spiders in the past tides. How could we have survived until now?”

The crowd was relieved upon hearing at that.

There were too many strange and terrifying creatures in the sea. Just seeing a few types was enough to broaden one’s horizons.

And just as Sun Chengshan had said, five minutes later, these spiders turned over and lay motionless in the sand.

They curled up as if they were baked dry by the heat.

“These water spiders are also good stuff. Collect them while you can!” Sun Chengshan hurriedly said.

There were already some martial artists who were a step faster. At this moment, they were already collecting the dried up water spiders.

Hearing this, everyone started to move.

This was like picking up money. No matter how much the female disciples resisted, they gritted their teeth and went to pick them up.

As Wang Yu was picking them up, he was also paying attention to the movements of the guards.

He even met the director of the Public Security Bureau, Zheng Anbang, and the leading figure under him, the captain of the Public Security Team, Dragon Zhou.

He was the cold-looking saber wielder who had arrested the owner of Flying Eagle Sect, Gu Hongming, on the spot.

They were not far from where Wang Yu and the others were.

At this moment, it could be seen that the focus of these officials and military martial artists was not on the water spiders all over the ground, but on the strange fish which was wandering over there.

Sun Chengshan obviously noticed Zheng Anbang and took the initiative to approach him.

As the two of them chatted, Wang Yu vaguely heard some information about that strange fish.

This fish was called the ghost-faced four-legged Fish. It was speculated to live 5,000 meters under the sea and had been ashore during the tide, but only three times.

This was the fourth time.

An adult ghost-faced four-legged fish could be extremely destructive. Once bitten by it or whipped by its tail, even a martial artist at the sixth level of Body Tempering would not be able to escape the fate of being severely injured with broken bones!

Therefore, both the director, Zheng Anbang, and the guardian looked rather solemn.

“I’m going,” Dragon Zhou suddenly said.

With the long saber in hand, his cultivation had already reached the sixth level of Body Tempering. He was only left with the final polishing to reach the final level. It was only a matter of time.

He was going to help the guards deal with this ghost-faced four-legged fish.

On the other side, two armored military soldiers holding iron spears appeared and headed towards the fish.

Sensing the threat, the ghost-faced four-legged fish immediately became ferocious and let out a strange sound which was like a baby’s cry. It was simply a sound pollution. Just hearing it made one feel suffocated and uncomfortable.

Dragon Zhou nodded at the other two. “Greetings, Corporal and Vice-Captain.”

They belonged to the two violent agency systems of the island town.

There was no direct superior-subordinate relationship between the Military and the Security Bureau.

“Yes.” Corporal Lu Feng nodded. He looked a little older and steadier. The vice-captain, Lu Xiaochu, had the appearance of a young boy. His eyes were bright as he sized up the ghost-faced four-legged fish not far away.

It was the first time he’d seen the strange creature since arriving at Island Town 732, and he found it more novel.

“Uncle, this Silver Belt Sea is really interesting. I’m afraid strange fellows only appear here.” Lu Xiaochu smiled.

“Xiaochu, don’t be careless. This ghost-faced four-legged fish is already an adult and is extremely dangerous. Even I’m not completely confident,” Lu Feng said solemnly.

“Understood, Uncle.” Lu Xiaochu stopped smiling

“Remember to pay attention to its bite and tail later. Don’t relax. Once you’re bitten by it, the consequences will be unimaginable!” As Lu Feng spoke, he picked up the big iron spear in his hand.

He waved the spear and it emit a muffled sound of air being torn apart in the air, like muffled thunder. It seemed extremely heavy.

In the next moment, the ghost-faced four-legged fish charged at the three of them and opened its mouth to bite. The three of them immediately started fighting

The silver spear in the young Lu Xiaochu’s hand floated lightly like a silver snake dancing in the air.

On the other side, Zhou’s saber technique was swift and fierce, filled with killing intent. It was also strong.

The strongest person was the corporal who was older.

The large iron spear in his hand was mainly used for smashing. The blood and energy in his entire body surged, and black wind swept out as he fought like a god of war. His combat strength was clearly higher than that of Lu Xiaochu and Dragon Zhou who were beside him.

It was also because of his powerful suppression that the ghost-faced four-legged fish was forced to retreat and could not raise its head.

Lu Xiaochu and Dragon Zhou also knew very well that Corporal Lu Feng was the protagonist of this battle. At most, they could only support him and suppress the fish.

The three people and the strange fish fought fiercely.

“So powerful!” Wang Yu watched from afar.

In the island town, the three of them were definitely top-notch experts.

Even a famous dojo master like Sun Chengshan had to make way for them.

In terms of combat strength, Sun Chengshan could only be considered a second-tier expert in the island town.

The top-notch spear technique and saber technique dazzled people and made their blood boil.

Even Sun Chengshan’s eyes lit up.

As the saying went, experts could see the real techniques. The higher the cultivation level, the more they could understand how exquisite the other party’s spear technique and saber technique were.

The toughness of the ghost-faced four-legged fish’s flesh was beyond imagination.

When the spear tips and blades of the three of them struck its skin, they actually made sounds of fine iron colliding. Even if sparks flew, they could not completely pierce through this thick skin and could only leave a faint mark on it.

After repeated stabbing, blood marks appeared.

In the end, the three of them used all their strength to stab this ghost-faced four-legged fish to death.

“Even three people with such powerful combat strength are fighting with such difficulty. What kind of creature is this strange fish?!”

Impenetrable, impervious to fire and water.

This strange fish that lived 5,000 meters under the sea redefined the word “monster” for Wang Yu.
