God of Fishing

Chapter 611 The Strongest Captain in History (1)

The Tide Calling Crabs were very easy to recognize. Their features were very obvious.

All crabs had two pincers, but one of the Tide Calling Crab’s pincers was much bigger than the other one. It was even bigger than the crab’s body, and the other pincer was almost negligible.

This one pincer was exactly what was most dangerous about the Tide Calling Crabs.

The pincer was dreadful enough to cut apart mid-quality spiritual weapons. If a Hanging Fisher was caught by the pincer, they would usually end up being cut into two halves.

The pincer was not only powerful but also extremely hard. It was where the essence of the Tide Calling Crabs was gathered.

Information popped up in Han Fei’s eyes.

<Name> Tide Calling Crab

<Introduction> This is a scavenging creature. Each Tide Calling Crab can only grow one pincer in a lifetime. This pincer is as hard as iron and carries sharp sawtooth that can easily kill a regular Hanging Fisher.

<Level> 41

<Quality> Regular

<Spiritual Energy> 1,285 points

<Effect> It can build up your body if it’s eaten over a long period of time.

<Collectible> Tide Calling Pincer

<Absorbable>

The war had already begun. Tide Calling Crabs with their pincer lifted high were everywhere.

Their shells, oil and sticky body fluids were sprayed on the ground. Everybody who saw the filthy scene would frown.

Han Fei felt that he underestimated those junior Hanging Fishers, who seemed more brilliant than he expected.

Even those peak-level Dangling Fishers had raised exuberant vines on the battlefield and caused dazzling light with their teamwork.

“Huh? They aren’t weak at all!”

Han Fei had witnessed the battlefield in the Heavenly Desolate City, which was really dreadful. People were sacrificed as if human lives were nothing worth mentioning.

However, the battle here was far more challenging than that in the Heavenly Desolate City anyway. Those Tide Calling Crabs knew nothing except to swing their pincers. They would almost be dead for sure if they missed their target. Suddenly, Han Fei heard someone shout, “Scouts from the 12th squad, fill in!”

As it turned out, two peak-level Dangling Fishers were pinched, and their team couldn’t resist the enemies any longer, so reinforcements had to fill in.

Han Fei was not in a hurry to step up. From what he had seen, there were few casualties, and only four scout squads had filled in.

Yet, there was a hill of Tide Calling Crab bodies. When they were heaped more than three meters tall, the battle line was moved dozens of meters back, which seemed to be a tactic.

Leng Hui didn’t return back even though half an hour had passed.

At this moment, eight squads had filled in, and the rest were all waiting patiently.

You Lingyun instructed, “It’s about time.”

Han Fei was confused. “What time?”

“The guardians’ combat ability is high during the first hour of battle, but they will be exhausted after the first hour and may get injured more easily. So, we’ll have to fill in soon.”

Han Fei let out his senses and realized that the Tide Calling Crabs were still covering up the entire Skeleton Shore even though their numbers had dropped. He asked in confusion, “What will we do when the guardians’ combat ability drops?” Wu Xiaoxiao took a breath and said, “Part of them will retreat, and the scouts will replace them, so that they can take a break and replenish themselves.”

Gu Daliang said, “Those with more stars have to shoulder more pressure. A squad of senior squads can be used as two or three guardian squads.”

It did make sense. After all, for those who were Hanging Fishers, their speed of recovery wouldn’t be slow as long as a spirit gatherer provided spiritual energy and healing for them.

Another half an hour later, the guardians retreated for another fifty meters, and the second wall of crab bodies appeared.

At this moment, many captains near Han Fei were roaring.

“The 15th squad of scouts are filling in!”

“The 17th squad of scouts are filling in!”

“The 23rd squad of scouts are filling in!”

Leng Hui appeared out of nowhere. “Captain.” Han Fei instantly roared, “The 37th squad of scouts are filling in!” After that, Han Fei led Leng Hui and the others to an opening

While charging, Han Fei shouted, “Wu Xiaoxiao, freeze the ground and avoid head-on clashes. Follow me or Gu Daliang and create favorable environments for us together with Leng Hui.”

Han Fei then glanced at Gu Daliang. “What weapon do you use?”

Gu Daliang was briefly stunned. “Machetes.”

Han Fei casually threw a long saber that was an ultra-quality spiritual weapon to him. “I don’t have any machetes. Use this for now.”

In the end, Han Fei said to You Lingyun, “Don’t charge too far ahead of the team. Stay close to Gu Daliang and work with him.”

After only one moment, Han Fei already assumed the role of a captain, which was rather surprising for You Lingyun and the others.

Han Fei only made the simplest arrangement. He hadn’t seen their cooperation yet, so he couldn’t command them more subtly yet. He had to take a look first.

After the five of them charged forward, two guardian squads immediately retreated. Some of the guardians were shocked to see that Han Fei, an advanced Dangling Fisher, was pressing forward.

Thud!

As the vanguard, Gu Daliang pushed his shield forward while he was protected by ice. He looked like a massive diamond statue.

Holding the ultra-quality spiritual sword in one hand and the shield in the other, Gu Daliang unleashed his spiritual energy and cut three Tide Calling Crabs into halves easily.

The ground had been frozen, which made a lot of Tide Calling Crabs slip and fall. Every time Leng Hui appeared, the dagger in his hand would stab between the eyes of a Tide Calling Crab.

You Lingyun’s battle was going well. Her spiritual beast was a Flame Fish, so her longsword was attached to furious flames and even its aura was red.

When her sword aura was launched, sharp gold light also radiated from her body. In the blink of an eye, she stabbed through two Tide Calling Crabs.

It shouldn’t be a problem for them to defend the opening left by a couple of guardian squads.

As for Han Fei, he was holding a simple twig in his hand, and after each swing, at least three Tide Calling Crabs would be cut apart even though they were blocking the twig with their pincer.

Other people’s fights were much more violent than Han Fei’s. The whole shore was ablaze with light in various colors. Ripples of spiritual energy were spreading out, and weapon auras were raging

Someone cut out a golden aura dozens of meters long with his axe, and someone impaled dozens of Tide Calling Crabs with their long spear.

All in all, after the scouts filled in, they were able to hold their positions.

Of course, Han Fei focused most of his attention on his teammates. Based on his observation, Leng Hui was fast but not very responsive to changes.

Wu Xiaoxiao was not only good at freezing the enemy but also could attach poison to her grasses. However, after freezing several dozen Tide Calling Crabs, her problems showed up: firstly, she was incapable of killing the crabs; secondly, she didn’t have enough spiritual energy.

Han Fei immediately pointed his finger and transmitted a stream of spiritual energy into her body.

The girl was instantly refreshed. She launched an area of ice and froze the ground in a radius of dozens of meters.

As for Gu Daliang, he had no weapons in his armor box and he was fighting like a soul warrior. He was quite strong, but he knew few battle techniques.

You Lingyun was the most distinguished warrior among them. This woman, bathed in furious flames, killed almost twenty Tide Calling Crabs with one fiery slash, reducing pressure on both her own team and those nearby. Unfortunately, You Lingyun was unable to launch another attack after the outbreak. She must’ve run out of her energy after that attack.

Han Fei saw that a Tide Calling Crab’s pincer was about to catch You Lingyun. His first reaction was not to save her, because he knew that You Lingyun couldn’t have overseen such an obvious attack.

As he expected, You Lingyun slightly shivered and passed through the pincer as if it were a magic trick, leaving several blurry shadows behind.

Huh? A flash? No, it’s her contractual spiritual beast, the Ghost Spiritual Fish, which seems to be able to relocate instantly in a small range…

Everybody fought on for about half an hour, and another batch of guardians were replaced by the first batch who had already taken a rest.

However, it was obvious that those people weren’t fully recovered, so the pressure on the scouts was a lot greater. But few people were injured or killed despite the heavy pressure. Up until this moment, nobody in the couple of squads near Han Fei died or got wounded.

All of a sudden, a giant sword emerged from the sand below the feet of a Hanging Fisher in Han Fei’s neighboring squad. Caught unprepared, he was penetrated through by the sword.

“Not good! It’s a Big Sword Water Flea! Everybody, watch your feet!”
