After Rooney Elvis accepted his father's will, he officially joined the battle for the Baron's title. He brought a few servants and crew members with him as he sailed a small sailboat out to sea, ready to search for sea monsters!
"Bring crossbows, javelins, longswords, and other weapons!"
"Check the sails, ropes, food, and weapons. We must be ready!"
"And you, you are our guide this time …"
Rooney stood on the deck and roared loudly. The sky was filled with darkness, as if he was not optimistic about his clansmen. Everyone thought that Rooney was an idiot who was courting death this time. No one expected him to come back alive!
A light rain fell from the sky. The clear sky suddenly changed the moment Rooney set off. All the crew members shouted, "This is a warning from God. We can't go out to sea. This time, we will never come back!"
Rooney looked at the sky and his guide, Depp. "Depp, do you think we can go out to sea today?"
Depp looked at the sky and the situation on the sea these days. "This should be a temporary drizzle. It will pass soon. It's not the windy season yet, so there are no strong waves on the sea. But this is a sign that we …"
Rooney immediately patted Depp on the shoulder. "There are no signs. Everything will go smoothly. Trust me!"
"Lil 'Jack, Rod, John, and you, Depp. You've all joined the army with me. We've fought on the battlefield together. We've fought our way up from the bottom, and now, we've finally become members of the Imperial Guard. And I've even become a Bloodline Knight. We've stood out from the millions of others, and I believe that this time, we'll be able to charge out of this predicament just like we did countless times before. We'll be victorious once again!"
Rooney said passionately, "From here on out, we will let the symbol of the Golden Rose fly above the entire Luhmann Kingdom. My friends, you will follow me and become the best of the best. You will become true nobles. I, Rooney Elvis, swear to God that if one day I become successful, I will never forget you!"
Rooney's words stirred up everyone's emotions. Depp immediately shouted, "That's right! We will win! Rooney, you will also become Baron Elvis!"
Rooney raised his eyebrows. "No, not just a baron!"
At that moment, the rain really stopped. The clouds parted and the morning sun shone on the deck, making it hard for everyone to open their eyes. Rooney stood on the deck as if he was truly blessed by God!
Rooney hugged the sun and knelt on the ground, kissing the floor. "May you bless me!"
"Hoist the sails, set sail!"
The sails were pulled up, and the anchor was pulled up from the bottom of the water. The small sailboat slowly moved forward. The wind pushed it toward the rising sun!
The ship sailed on the sea for a week. Rooney and the others took the sea map and searched for places where sea monsters might appear, but they did not encounter any. This was really like a joke played by the Goddess of Fate. Others would carefully circle around all the dangerous areas to avoid these sea monsters and the Children of the Sea, but they would definitely encounter them!
And when Rooney swaggered to look for them, they disappeared without a trace. After drifting at sea for more than a week, they still did not find anything. Rooney and the others did not have much food and water left. If they still could not find their target, they could only return empty-handed and become a joke!
On the eleventh day, they came to a place marked on the map where a giant leech once appeared. This type of sea monster was relatively easy to kill. Although it was huge, its intelligence was very low, and it didn't have many attacking methods! As long as they were careful, they could catch it and use the ship to hold it back. Then, they could think of a way to slowly exhaust it to death!
This was also the battle plan of Rooney and the others. However, whether or not they could encounter this giant leech, especially when it happened to come out of the sea, all required some luck.
That afternoon, Rooney and the others were observing the sea from the deck. They were looking for traces of giant leeches, and they even threw bait into the sea. However, most of the bait they attracted were ordinary sea creatures, fish, and shrimp.
John leaned on the side of the ship and looked into the distance. Suddenly, he felt that the color of the water under the ship changed drastically. It seemed to darken.
Hardedef lowered his head and saw a huge black shadow that was several times larger than the entire sailboat disappear in the blink of an eye. The pipe in Hardedef's mouth fell into the ocean, emitting faint ripples!
Hardedef's expression changed greatly. When the huge monster passed by, it emitted a terrifying aura that caused his body to feel cold. He couldn't even feel his back. Hardedef's face twitched as he let out a sharp scream, "Monster, monster!"
The people scattered on the deck immediately looked at John. At this time, the hull of the ship suddenly suffered a huge impact. The huge force caused the entire ship to tilt violently. Rooney and a few others were seen rolling on the ground along with the hull of the ship like a wheel!
"Boom!"
Along with the loud noise, a huge tail appeared, setting off a huge wave. The seawater seemed to be overturned, and water droplets filled the sky, temporarily covering the deck and everyone. The huge tail swept across the deck heavily, and in an instant, a large part of the deck suffered severe damage. Everyone looked at the huge tail. It was as huge as a whip in the hand of a god, and the scales on it were as big as a millstone!
"Sea monster, sea monster!"
"God, what the hell is this!"
"Monster, monster!"
Everyone was shocked. Their mouths were muttering inexplicable strange cries. They did not even know what they were saying.
"Hurry up and pick up your weapons. Prepare for battle!"
Rooney's reaction was the fastest. He was the first to climb up and shout at everyone. He immediately stabilized the situation. Everyone's hearts were filled with fear. When they faced the sea monster directly, they finally understood what they were facing. This was a real monster, a natural disaster. Humans were so weak that they couldn't even withstand a single blow from it!
After a series of punches and kicks from Rooney, everyone finally came back to their senses. They immediately stood up and quickly carried out the battle plan from before!
"Rod, Lil 'Jack, you're in charge of controlling the crossbow!"
"Depp, you're in charge of throwing the spear. Aim for its eyes and mouth and stab at its vital points!"
"John, you're in charge of steering the ship. Dodge its attacks!"
Everyone immediately moved. The crossbows they brought were similar to bed crossbows. Rooney climbed up the mast and looked down, searching for the position of the sea monster. Rooney's face was flushed with anxiety. His breathing became abnormally rapid. "Where is it? Where is it? Hurry up and come out. My little baby, where is it? What are you … "
