Ice Sea Lord: Starting with Intelligence Update

Chapter 49 A Weak Mountain, Not a Weak Boat

The firing pin detonates the high-explosive powder in the chamber, and the shell inside the barrel roars out like thunder.

The tail fin twisted and swirled in the air before leaping toward the still-moving, dark tentacles.

With a loud "bang," the shell struck the left side of the tentacle's torso.

The scorching heat carved a large hole in its illusory body. After twisting and deforming in an almost agonizing manner, flesh and nerves were intertwined and pulled together within the cavity.

Like cancer cells, it rebuilds its missing body, restoring its entire form in just a few seconds.

"My lord, the ship's cannons seem to have no effect on it, and in fact... they've made it even faster."

"What!" He Feng blurted out in his confusion, his brain throbbing with pain as if it were being bitten by insects.

At this moment, He Feng had no choice but to activate his evolutionary ability to suppress his drowsy mind and clear it again.

"Think of a way to survive!" he roared through gritted teeth, scratching his head and ears all over the room.

If the enemy cannot be harmed, then we need to consider what can suppress it.

Even a few scattered ones are fine. This thing shouldn't have strayed beyond the realm of living things. As long as we can suppress it, that's good enough.

If we can exhaust it, the two fortresses running at full power might be able to escape!

My gaze inadvertently fell upon the glowing map on the screen. There were two bright spots on the map, namely the Azure and the White Dove, and their current location was on the edge of many iceberg cliffs.

In the vast ocean, he looked at the intricate road ahead and accidentally shot at a cone-shaped ice pillar that was wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, resembling an hourglass, but barely supported by its middle section.

The upper part is a full 300 meters high, which is awe-inspiring.

He did a quick calculation and figured that if the Azure's naval guns were used to continuously chip away at its health, it would be a significant improvement.

If the skillful words hit the tentacle monster's body, the recovery period would be enough to give them time to escape.

He Feng immediately had an idea. Without thinking, he placed his hands on the steering wheel and pulled hard to the right.

The Azure slowly turned, then rapidly twisted.

The White Dove was still close behind, barely keeping up with the Azure even without wind resistance, and dared not fall behind.

He Feng thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"This is the Azure, I am Captain He Feng, and I request that the White Dove slow down."

"This is the White Dove, and I am Captain Lin Qingqing. Please allow me to refuse." A female voice rejected this unreasonable request.

"If the Azure is unable to handle the enemy, I suggest that the two ships flee in opposite directions; at least one of the two fortresses will survive."

"I reject it," He Feng said coldly. "Losing even one fortress would be a huge blow to the alliance at present. I have another proposal."

"At 6 o'clock and 1 nautical mile, there is a fragile iceberg structure. We will control its direction of tilting. I hope the White Dove can reduce its speed and reach there at a speed close to the tentacles."

"What are the odds of success?" the woman replied calmly.

"Thirty percent, maybe even lower," He Feng said helplessly.

"That's enough." The voice on the other end was calm and collected. "I believe you."

"Then I wish you—good luck in your military endeavors." He Feng turned off his microphone, pressing his hands to his temples to force himself to stay awake.

The two fortresses were no longer subordinate to each other, and a huge chasm separated them.

The silhouette of the White Dove gradually shrank, and the extremely foul stench of its tentacles almost pressed against their nasal mucosa. They were about to confront that unspeakable and terrifying existence.

Then.

The countless eyes on the tentacles suddenly turned, focusing their gaze on the hull of the Azure, sending a chill down one's spine.

The body that had just been blasted apart gradually reformed, forming countless blood-red eyeballs that flew in mid-air in an inconceivable way.

Then, it rapidly approached the two fortresses at a speed that the black tentacles could not match.

"Look, what's that!"

One of the crew members pointed in horror at the eyeballs flying in the sky, his hands and feet going weak.

"It's an eyeball, it fell off that big thing!"

"And it looks like we're almost there! What kind of crazy speed is this?!"

Despite his feverish body, He Feng shouted sternly, "Don't panic! Light machine gun team and city defense team, maintain your formation!"

In this situation, only by facing the enemy head-on can one have a sliver of hope for survival; even if it is a struggle, one must escape alive.

The city's defense troops tried their best to keep the figure behind them, which was about to become a background character, out of their sight.

They all concentrated their fear into the magazines, capturing the eyes of the ghostly figures parading around them.

The bullets were fired at an angle, relentlessly shooting at the phantom-like sphere.

"My hand! My hand!"

A man howled in terror, a gun in his hand, as he watched sharp teeth sprout from his eyeballs and chew on his left arm.

His arm was ripped off by brute force, and blood gushed from the exposed joint like a fountain.

The eyeball monster's body suddenly grew larger.

He savored the taste of blood with increasing greed, wanting to open his deep maw once more.

"Bang"

Suddenly, a hidden gun shot from afar, striking the eyeball monster's body squarely, causing a gushing, foul-smelling, bluish-black liquid to seep out.

"Commander Lin Mo!" the man called out thankfully.

Lin Mo grabbed his neck and angrily rebuked him, "You were attacked by a monster and you didn't even dare to fight back? You've been a brother of the Azure for so long, and now get back to where you were."

The man nodded gratefully and left with his help.

"Boss He Feng, you absolutely have to succeed!"

Lin Mo murmured, then picked up his gun again and began fighting the monster.

……

"How many ammunition reserves does the naval gun crew have left?"

"There are 15 more rounds, all of them are 100 kilograms in yield."

He Feng transmitted the location information to the position of the naval gun crew.

"Fire there, and make sure the final shot hits the target in the right spot."

"My lord, this is a bit difficult," several people chirped.

"We have to finish it, even if we can't. This is the last chance for the Azure to escape safely."

"Yes!" The group sensed He Feng's anxiety and, though reluctant, shouted in unison.

Flames erupted from the gun barrels once more, swiftly unleashing all the ammunition and aiming at the neck of the iceberg before them.

Although there were a few blanks, the extremely close distance still ensured a certain level of accuracy.

Five out of ten shots hit their mark, and the enormous impact caused the iceberg to shake violently.

When desire is about to crumble, just one last cannonball is all it takes to deliver the final blow.

Everything is ready.

The pitch-black tentacles behind them became an unbearable blackness against the azure sky, occasionally slapping down their tentacles, the splashing waves maliciously affecting the speed of the two ships.

Now, if they were caught up, that twisted thing that could encompass all things in the world would certainly not hesitate to include them.

The speed maintained by the White Dove was quite perfect; it was already quite an achievement that its weak speed could keep it just out of reach of that branching tentacle.

Both had reached beneath the iceberg, and the White Dove cleverly stepped on the accelerator, quickly increasing the distance between them.

He Feng mentally timed it, then shouted loudly into the communication channel.

"fire!"
