Chapter 101: Sea Monster
Several days later, Mo Yan received a message that Yulin Bay was attacked by a group of pirates and suffered some losses. When Mo Yan saw this message, he laughed angrily. He didn't know what kind of pirate would dare to appear in Yulin Bay, where even the people of Sarte didn't want to get close. Moreover, according to Kedilia's message, she had lost many demons before barely defending the place.
Due to this situation, Mo Yan had no choice but to ride the black dragon himself to Fish Scale Bay once, to see what was happening there. Accompanying him were Claude, as his personal attendant, whose presence was not very strong, although he was often by his side, but for some things he didn't have the qualifications to speak up, so he could only silently guard beside him.
And when attacking the Parliament Building, because Mo Yan only brought Jones to scout, he didn't play a significant role either. This made Claude, who had been drawing his salary in vain for a long time, feel somewhat uneasy in his heart. And this time he was determined to take advantage of the pirate affair to achieve some merit and calm his conscience.
"Claude, don't mind whether you're useful or not." As they were about to arrive at Fish Scale Bay, Mo Yan said to Claude, who was being held in Jones' claws: "Some things seem useless when established, but in fact, it's not an easy position. And as a close attendant, having nothing to do is the best thing, you don't have to be apologetic about these things."
"I understand what you mean." Claud said loudly, as he was quite far away and didn't have the same kind of vocal cords as a Minotaur, "But there's nothing for me to do, which makes it hard for me to take the salary you're giving me in good conscience. Not to mention that you didn't need to give me any pay in the first place, and I'm supposed to serve you for a year anyway, so please let me do something."
"Alright, then it's up to you this time." Mo Yan heard the persistence in Claud's words and smiled, saying: "Let those pirates be handled by you, let them experience your quick sword. And I'm paying you a salary with the intention of keeping you at Thunder Cliff forever. If there's such a high salary to be had, shouldn't you consider staying at Thunder Cliff?"
"I'll consider it." Claud thought for a moment and didn't respond directly to Mo Yan. As for Claud's attitude, Mo Yan also didn't particularly care. If such a fast sword user could stay by his side, of course, that would be the best, but if not, it was just a bit unfortunate, without any significant loss. Having already heard rumors about Claud, Mo Yan dared not hand over command of his troops to him.
After several hours of flight, Mo Yan finally saw the buildings of Fish Scale Bay. From the air, it seemed that some damage had been done, and the gray dwarves who were sent to command the construction were repairing the damaged houses, but overall, the damage was not too great, and the dock, which was the most important part, did not suffer much damage. After circling for a while, Jones slowly landed in the square of Fish Scale Bay.
"We're honored by your arrival, Great Minotaur." Kedillia, who had been waiting in the square and had already seen the black dragon flying from afar, bowed her head to Mo Yan after he got off the dragon's back. The fish monster Gar, behind her, directly knelt on the ground, showing his highest respect to Mo Yan.
"What exactly happened?" Mo Yan said as he walked towards the town hall after transforming back into human form. "Why did a group of pirates cause you losses and even attack the city? Even if those magical creatures haven't been fully trained, they shouldn't have been defeated by a group of pirates, since you are the rulers of the sea."
"This is not our fault." Kedilia hastily explained when she heard Mo Yan's words: "Those pirates are not ordinary pirates, and they have two huge Ocula sea monsters under their command. Although we have a large number of demons, we are not the opponent of the sea monsters either, and it was already very difficult to drive them away."
"What's an Okura Sea Monster?" Mo Yan asked, looking at Kedillia who was sitting on the giant crab moving forward. As a non-native creature, Mo Yan was not familiar with many things on the mainland. The term "Okura Sea Monster" only made Mo Yan know that it was a demon beast, and it seemed to sound quite powerful.
"That's a deep-sea monster, it looks like a giant octopus with a spiky body, but much bigger than that." Kedilia explained: "It has very strong power and regenerative ability, with eight huge tentacles, it can easily drag the ship into the sea. And even if its tentacles are cut off, it can grow back in just one day, and as for magic..."
Through Kedila's description, Mo Yan roughly knew what kind of creature it was. Such a monster like an octopus has appeared in various movies, and the most famous one is probably a certain somewhat effeminate pirate. In the second part, he followed that monster, and both people and ships were dragged into the sea.
"That's a bit of a problem." Mo Yan said, sitting in the main seat in the town hall: "If it's really as you said, the demons here are not enough to resist those two sea monsters. And as an important trading port in the future, having a group of pirates lurking around is not a good thing."
Moyan thought of the pirate and remembered his goods, spent a lot of money to buy ships and magic materials, were all robbed by pirates! That matter almost made Moyan want to kill all pirates. After all, it not only made Moyan lose a lot of money but also many things that needed materials couldn't be done.
Before Mo Yan bought another batch of materials and transported them from the mainland, Ritz had complained many times about not having materials, and some very important things could not be done. Although Mo Yan did not know this time whether these pirates were the ones who robbed him last time or not, what Mo Yan was sure of was that they would definitely die this time!
"Akula is quite formidable, isn't he?" Jones put his finger to his lips and thought for a moment, blinking his black eyes as he looked at Mo Yan. "I think I remember what that monster was too. If it's in the sea, even I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. I only know a little magic that can be used in water, and none of it has any killing power."
"How can those pirates control such a powerful demon?" Claud asked with some curiosity: "Those pirates are just human beings, do they have any special way to command the demon? Even the commander of Thunder Cliff needs to use magic to make humans speak the language of demons."
"There must be some special way." Mo Yan thought for a moment and said: "Now that there are those two Ocula sea monsters, it's not easy to win. So we need to lure away the two sea monsters and then directly attack the pirate ship. Once we kill all the pirates, the sea monsters won't be a problem either."
"The master is so... fierce." Jones heard Mo Yan's words and asked strangely, "Two Octopus monsters shouldn't be a problem, why do we need to lure them away? We can just kill them directly! Their nuclei can also serve as the main material for the defensive array, that white-bearded wizard will be delighted too."
Jones' words made Mo Yan feel a bit embarrassed, how could he tell Jones that in fact, he was afraid of seawater. If it were to fight against those two sea monsters, as long as they bound him and dragged him into the sea, Mo Yan would only be able to wait for his death by drowning, his fear of seawater would make his body stiffen to the point where he couldn't move.
"This... is for some reason." Mo Yan rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, explaining to Jones: "In short, I must not fall into the sea water. If that happens, my powers will be useless, and it will be troublesome at that time. So the battle plan is what I just said, with Gal leading the demon army to distract those two sea monsters, while you, Jones, are responsible for sending me, Kedilia, and Claud on board."
At this time, on a pirate ship not far from the Fish Scale Bay harbor, the pirates were also discussing the harbor they had discovered a few days ago. "It doesn't seem like a wealthy place," said a girl wearing a captain's uniform: "And the demons in the bay are also troublesome, it seems that there is already a powerful demon ruling over there."
"Berika first mate, take off my clothes." A one-eyed, somewhat aged black-bearded man said to the girl: "You are not captain yet."
"Cut... the nonsense." The girl heard the man's words and reluctantly took off the captain's uniform, saying: "Anyway, sooner or later I'll get rid of you and become the captain myself. What difference does it make whether I wear this uniform a day earlier or later? Under your glorious leadership, we haven't found any prey for several months now. I've already told you that there aren't any ships in this sea area."
