Chapter 378: Red marlin

After entering the Moon of Zhonghua, the long storm season officially ended, and the surface of the ocean finally regained its vitality.

A month ago, when sailing ships sailed in offshore areas or near islands, there were hardly many fish on the sea, but now, there are birds flying and leaping everywhere, and everything is lively.

Especially in the area where the river enters the sea, a large amount of nutrients are brought into the ocean by fresh water, the number of plankton is amazing, and large-scale fish schools abound.

These fish schools are almost all predatory fishes, herbivorous fishes or omnivorous fishes. They will attract countless predators, including but not limited to various seabirds, carnivorous fishes, and large and small. Sea beasts.

Thus, a complete food chain from bottom to top was formed.

It is precisely because there are too many predators and too dense, although the estuary area is extremely rich, but there are very few fishermen who have the courage to come here to fish, because this is not to fish, but to send food.

If you see a "medium-sized" sea shark over 20 meters long slammed out of the water, "fly" into the sky at a height of 7 or 8 meters, bite a large bird that is 3 meters long, and then fall back to the sea. Smashed up the sky of spray.

If you look down at the dilapidated fishing boat that is more than 10 meters long at your feet, what do you think?

What do you think should be done?

Life and death are indifferent, just do it if you don't accept it?

What a fuck, it's almost the same as if the ship and the people were fucked.

A fierce sea shark only needs to hit a fishing boat, the fishing boat will definitely become fragments, and the fisherman will die.

Therefore, the correct approach is to roll as far as possible.

After the fishermen spotted a large school of fish, their first reaction was to flee wildly in a small boat. The faster the better. If they run slowly, they will probably lose their lives. Although the cruel marine fish and beasts do not deliberately attack the fishing boat, they happen to swim from the side Outdated, some grumpy old men definitely don't mind taking a bite to try.

Unlike on earth, the most coveted thing fishermen dream of is to see schools of fish.

Yes, this world is so funny!

In areas far away from the mainland, due to the relative lack of nutrients, fish schools are not dense in the offshore waters, but the degree of danger is far greater than that in the offshore waters, because there are often terrible big guys here.

These creatures are basically powerful magic creatures, and the monster "butterfly fish" that Renault encountered last time was one of them.

Among these magic creatures, a large part of them come from the deep sea like an abyss, and there are also some large migratory predators, such as some large sea sharks and giant sea beasts. Their hunting range is very large, often in various areas. Wandering in the sea.

Their body size is very large, 30-40 meters long is just waiting, and there are no giant creatures over 100 meters long.

These big guys firmly occupy the top of the ocean food chain. Strictly speaking, they are the true hegemons of the vast ocean. Even if it is a large sailing ship, if unfortunately they are attacked by them, there is a great chance that the ship will be destroyed.

The most typical example is the "Thunderline Unicorn Shark", the channel between the Thousand Lake Kingdom and the Xinghai Continent, once deeply troubled by this large sea monster.

However, fortunately, most sea monsters are not very interested in sailing, and the ocean trade has not been completely cut off. In most of the time, the relationship between sea monsters and sailing boats is "well water does not violate river water".

When they see the sailing boat, they will often just wander around on their own, and will not compete with a pile of wood floating on the sea, nor will the sailing boat panic when they are full and go to the trouble of sea monsters.

Of course, according to the "tradition", the above-mentioned "response measures" are only limited to the indigenous people in other worlds and do not apply to Reynolds.

As a Lafeng man standing at the top of the food chain, Renault smiles immediately when he sees sea monsters and schools of fish.

There has always been only one way of doing this-roll up your sleeves and do it!

When the fleet left Copernicus Port and traveled 30 kilometers north along the coastline, it arrived at the mouth of a freshwater river called "Chagan River".

Elon commanded the fleet to cruise around for a while and found a large school of fish.

"Throwing the net..." First Mate Lutherford's voice echoed on the deck.

"Wow..."

The sailors standing on the stern deck immediately threw the metal fishing net into the sea, splashing a lot of water.

Under the action of gravity and seawater resistance, the winch wrapped around the fishing net automatically rotates, slowly putting the fishing net into the water.

In this world, this 40-meter-long giant metal fishing net is definitely a high-tech product. Except for the Odin and Haichao, there is no third sailing boat equipped with this kind of fishing net in Alien Realm.

It is worth noting that this fishing net is an industrialized product, which is manufactured by machine. It is no longer the same as before and can only be drawn out by Renault with bare hands.

The metal used to make fishing nets is a high-strength alloy with magic silver added. Through the "magic hot drawing process", the raw materials are drawn into slender wires, which are finally woven into fishing nets.

The so-called "magic hot wire drawing process" is to heat the alloy through a heat magic heater to reach a certain temperature, and then go through the "wire drawing process" for processing.

The basic principle of the drawing process is extremely simple. The metal is forcibly drawn through a small hole, and the product obtained is a metal wire. The drawing is performed without heating, which is called "cold drawing", and the heating state is "hot drawing".

On the earth, the cold drawing process is enough to make ordinary metal wires, but in other worlds, because the strength of the magic silver alloy is too high, the cold drawing process simply cannot be done, and hot drawing must be used.

Because the magic silver alloy will become soft dough under high temperature, the difficulty of drawing will be greatly reduced.

With the current industrial standards of Haichao, coupled with Renault's super manufacturing capabilities, it is easy to smash a wire drawing machine, and then combine the wire drawing machine with rune technology, and the "magic hot wire drawing machine" was born.

Thanks to the magic black technology, the heat energy of the metal wire can be completely recovered by the "heat recovery device" and used to heat the raw materials, which makes the working energy consumption of the magic heat drawing machine very low.

The working efficiency of the magic heat drawing machine is ridiculously high. As long as there are enough raw materials, 4 wire outlets can be drawn at the same time, and a metal wire of nearly 150 meters long can be drawn in 1 minute. This terrible efficiency is not better than Renault’s Power] How much lower.

After the giant fishing net was fully unfolded, the Odin dragged the fishing net and drove straight to the large school of fish ahead. Sailors headed by Rutherford stood on the deck and stared closely at the looming fishing net in the sea.

"Red marlin...I saw a red marlin..." A sailor suddenly shouted loudly, pointing his finger at the sea not far away.

Others heard about the reputation, and saw that in the sea, a red shadow flashed away, disappearing into the waves stirred by the propeller, and then the fishing net shook suddenly, seeming to be hit by something.

Obviously, this is what the red marlin has done well, or that the hapless man was caught by the fishing net.

Lu Defu seemed to perceive something, stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the fishing net. After feeling it, he smiled and said:

"The fishing nets are shaking. The red marlin should be biting the fishing net..."

A sailor asked worriedly:

"The fishing net won't be bitten? Do we want to drive the red marlin out of the fishing net? I heard that its teeth are notoriously sharp and can easily bite the thick branches of its arms..."

Lutherford gave the sailor a sideways glance:

"Why don't you go into the water to drive away the red marlin?"

The sailor suffocated, and said with a smile:

"Forget it, the red marlin can bite me into two pieces...I think it's better to use the magic boat..."

Lu Defu sneered and patted the metal fishing net in front of him:

"A normal linen fishing net will definitely be torn by a red marlin, but is this a normal fishing net?"

"I can tell you that this kind of fishing nets are cut constantly with a knife..."

At this time, the shaking of the fishing net became more obvious, and the vibration of the steel wire was so large that it could be seen with the naked eye.

This shows that this red marlin is not only quite big, but also firmly trapped by the fishing net, and is struggling hard to get rid of the fishing net.
