Lei Xingfeng went ashore and asked, "This is the area where the Star Lake Python lives?"
Wu Zhen followed behind Lei Xingfeng. Ever since he became a Thousand Lun Master, he was extremely respectful towards Lei Xingfeng. He hoped that Lei Xingfeng would give him some pointers from time to time, the results were too good. However, Lei Xingfeng knew that he did not have any pointers to give. In this period of time, Wu Zhen needed to consolidate his cultivation and train normally.
"Yes, the Star Lake Python was found here before. However, at that time, we did not have the strength to catch it. I hope we can succeed this time."
Zhong Geng added, "This is the place where we have the highest chance of finding the Star Lake Python. Other places might not be the same. We only have a month's time. When the time is up, we have to go back."
Many people began to move supplies from the ship. The wooden shack on the shore was very large, and the ground was covered with thick wooden planks to isolate the moisture on the ground. Thin gauze was hung on all sides to prevent mosquitoes and flies from wreaking havoc. The large wooden shack, which was nearly a few hundred square meters, quickly became a suitable place to live.
Lei Xingfeng obtained a very good location near the lake. The view was very good and he did not need to squeeze with the others. He was in an independent space separated by gauze.
As the commander, Zhong Geng lived in the center of the wooden shed. Wu Zhen, in order to interact more with Lei Xingfeng, specially lived next to Lei Xingfeng.
The news of the two's advancement also reached Han Xiao Bao's ears. However, she had not reached the bottleneck. Although she was not in a rush to break through, she was extremely envious. However, she did not have any reason to get close to Lei Xingfeng.
Zhong Geng ordered his subordinates to organize the weapons. The most important one was the steel crossbow. This thing was similar to what Lei Xingfeng expected. It was very big and the arrows were very shocking. They were as thick as a child's arm and were made of steel. The arrowhead was also thick and had sharp hooks. On top of the arrowhead, there were deep grooves for bleeding. Once hit, it was equivalent to opening up a bloody ditch.
There were a total of eight steel crossbows, each of them at least three meters long and needed to be wound with a winch. XinFeng guessed that with such strength, even he would have a hard time blocking it. He didn't know if his Mi Ring Armor would be able to block such arrows, but he didn't want to test it out. Due to the influence of his past life, he had an instinctive fear of arrows.
The steel crossbows were installed at the front of the eight wooden boats. There were servants and fishermen who began to maintain the steel crossbows. The main thing was to adjust and apply oil. The steel crossbows were not afraid of anything other than rusting in damp areas. Therefore, these eight steel crossbows were specially maintained and repaired. These steel crossbows were very precious because their power could already threaten a Thousand Lun Master.
After resting for a day, it was also to allow Zhong Geng and Wu Zhen to consolidate their training. Having just broken through, it was not suitable to immediately start moving.
The next morning, the ten wooden boats left the dock. One boat was left behind as backup.
The boat that Lei Xingfeng was on was the biggest one. The outer layer was wrapped in the skin of the Scaly Crocodile. When the boat entered the deep water area, the fishermen began to use the blood of the Scaly Crocodile to smear the skin. Moreover, they would occasionally sprinkle the flesh of the Scaly Crocodile into the lake.
Zhong Geng held a thick steel harpoon in his hand. Wu Zhen also held a similar harpoon. He asked, "Do you want a harpoon?"
The steel harpoon had barbs. Once it pierced into the fish, it would hook the fish. The two of them had a bundle of harpoons by their feet. Lei Xingfeng shook his head and laughed, "I have my own weapon." Saying so, with a flip of his wrist, the black bow appeared in his hand. He took out six steel arrows and inserted them into the wooden boards of the boat one by one.
Wu Zhen said, "Steel arrows don't have any power underwater."
Lei Xingfeng laughed, "Steel crossbows ….. are the same. Then why do you still use them? Hehe."
Wu Zhen immediately laughed embarrassedly. They would not use the steel crossbows to directly attack underwater targets. They would definitely wait for them to surface before attacking.
Lei Xingfeng said, "Are there any wooden boards here?"
Zhong Geng asked curiously, "What do you need wooden boards for? If there are wooden boards, how big do you want them? "
Lei Xingfeng said, "One foot long. It doesn't matter if it's bigger or smaller. Just about enough. Find more."
Wu Zhen said, "I'll go find them." He quickly found more than ten wooden boards and placed them on the deck.
Lei Xingfeng casually kept them in his Hidden Lun space and said, "Do you have more? Get more. "
Wu Zhen said, "Okay." He immediately ordered Old Man Tian to look for more on the other boats. After about half an hour, he came back with almost a hundred small wooden boards. They were all kept in Lei Xingfeng's Hidden Lun space.
The ten boats floated on the surface of the lake for an entire day. Only when the sky turned dark did they return to the camp. They didn't see anything. The surface of the lake was calm. No Star Lake Pythons appeared, and no big fish appeared. Just the flesh of the Scaly Crocodile alone was enough to scare away all the fish.
They were busy for ten days. Every day they would leave in the morning and return in the evening. They still could not find the Star Lake Python. Even Zhong Geng was getting impatient. There were only ten days left. If they still could not find it, then this opportunity would be wasted.
Every evening, Lei Xingfeng would run to the top of the mountain to train. During this period of time, he realized that there was a large amount of lightning element in the air. This allowed his training to improve by leaps and bounds. He also knew that the rainy season was coming.
This morning, Lei Xingfeng boarded the boat as usual. He saw Zhong Geng frowning as he stared at the lake. He comforted him, "Don't be too anxious. Even if this hunt is not successful, you still have other rewards."
Zhong Geng said, "Yes. Actually I shouldn't be so greedy. But after preparing for so many years, going back and forth a few times, I still haven't succeeded. This is really frustrating."
Lei Xingfeng asked curiously, "Didn't you guys meet the Star Lake Python? You even fought it once. What does it look like?"
Zhong Geng said, "It has a very beautiful appearance. It has a horn on its head. Hmm, a silver-white horn that is about a meter long. It has a very long mouth and front claws. As for the back claws … we didn't see it. It has a very long tail. Its skin doesn't look like fish scales, but it has layers of things. We can't tell what it is, but it can emit two rays of light. One is blue, the other is silver.
Lei Xingfeng was confused. He couldn't imagine the Star Lake Python's original appearance in his mind.
Wu Zhen also said, "Yes, it is very beautiful. But it is also very dangerous. Many of our people have died. We can't stop it at all."
Lei Xingfeng said, "Let's wait. What we should have won't run away. What we shouldn't have … we can't ask for it. Hehe, it depends on our luck and fate."
Someone came to report, "Master, there isn't much Scaly Crocodile meat left. Should we continue scattering?"
Zhong Geng was even more depressed. He said, "Continue. This time, scatter more. If we can't find it, we will have to leave. What's the point of having more meat?" That person agreed and turned to leave. Immediately, buckets of meat were scattered on the ship. The air was filled with a thick smell of blood.
When it was almost noon, Lei Xingfeng suddenly stood up at the front of the ship. He said, "It's here!" He had a strong premonition that there was a strong creature spying on their fleet. Its direction was in front of the fleet.
Zhong Geng and Wu Zhen both stood up and asked in unison, "Where?"
Lei Xingfeng pointed to the front and said, "It should be in front!" He couldn't be 100% sure, but he knew in his heart that the Star Lake Python was in front.
Zhong Geng believed that Lei Xingfeng wouldn't spout nonsense. He immediately gave the order. Ten ships formed an arc. The wooden ships with eight steel crossbows were arranged on both sides. There were four steel crossbows on each side, and the other ships were in front. They quickly moved forward.
The entire fleet became nervous. Everyone, especially the commoners, quickly got busy with their work. From the beginning, Zhong Geng had said that no mistakes could be made. Whoever made a mistake would die. He didn't need to kill them. The Star Lake Python could kill them. Everyone did their work seriously. Even if the Star Lake Python was right beside them, they still had to complete their work.
For this, Zhong Geng had trained them for a long time. At this time, they showed their efficiency. The moment the order was given, the entire fleet moved quickly. There wasn't a trace of chaos. Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but praise. He was also afraid that this fleet was a motley crew. He didn't expect this fleet to be like an army. They were swift and decisive. He said, "Not bad, the fleet is not bad."
Wu Zhen explained softly, "Master has trained them for a long time."
Lei Xingfeng nodded and thought, "No wonder. There is a difference between trained and untrained." He smiled and said, "The previous failures were due to insufficient training?"
Wu Zhen was a little embarrassed and said, "There was no training at all for the first two times. It was a mess. There was training for the third time, but we didn't find the Star Lake Python. Hehe."
Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but laugh. They were really unlucky. He said, "This time, we will definitely succeed. As long as it comes out."
It was noon. The sun was shining brightly. The morning fog had already dispersed. From the bow of the ship, they could see very far. The lake here stretched as far as the eye could see. No one knew how big it was. Moreover, the lake here was very deep. Zhong Geng had sent people to investigate before. The water was more than a hundred meters deep, and they couldn't reach the bottom.
The deeper the lake, the stronger the monster. Everyone knew this in their hearts. Only in this kind of place was the best place for large aquatic creatures to live. If it was shallow water, large fishes wouldn't be able to go. No matter how good the environment was, it would be useless.
A silver light flashed, followed by a blue light. A water mark appeared in the distance.
Zhong Geng shouted in surprise, "It's true! That's the Star Lake Python! Haha, hahaha, we finally see it again! "
Wu Zhen also shouted, "Good! Master, I will go to that ship! " He immediately boarded a very small boat, which was tied to the back of the big boat. It was a small boat that was specially used to board the various wooden boats. He went to the big wooden boat that Tian Dabing was on. He was the commander, and Tian Dabing was not qualified.
