Chapter 117 Barracuda Army
After the octopus clone swam to the sea, Li Xuan felt happy.
Sure enough, in this foggy weather, the octopus clone's vision is not affected.
Although the water surface was covered by heavy fog, no fog could appear under the sea water. The octopus' clone's vision was exactly the same as before.
Not to mention, there is really a ship nearby.
The ship is only less than a thousand meters away from Li Xuan's steel-pulled fishing boat.
The fog on the sea surface was too strong, and Li Xuan's octopus clone could not see the whole picture of the fishing boat. He could only see the underwater part. He vaguely judged that it should be a seven or eight-meter-long iron fishing boat.
This kind of fishing boat has low cost and high load capacity. It was very popular among fishermen in the past.
However, the safety performance of this kind of boat is too poor, and it consumes much larger fuel than smaller hang-up fishing boats, so it was gradually eliminated. Li Xuan hadn't seen this kind of fishing boat for a long time, but he didn't expect to see one today.
On the boat, Li Xuan pointed in one direction and said, "Abin, there is a ship in this direction, which is moving in this direction. Let's go around and move forward in another direction."
Qin Bin widened his eyes in confusion and asked, "Where is it? Why can't I see it?"
Li Xuan said: "It looks seven or eight hundred meters ahead. Maybe my eyes are better."
"Oh." Qin Bin nodded quickly. He didn't think much and directly adjusted the direction of the fishing boat.
Li Xuan controlled the octopus clone and swam in front of the fishing boat to lead the way. The impact of heavy fog on the navigation of the fishing boat was reduced to a minimum.
This heavy fog lasted for a very long time and did not gradually dissipate until the temperature rose in the morning.
"Oh my God, the fog has finally dissipated and we can finally fish well." Chen Bin stood on the deck with a happy look on his face.
Li Xuan also smiled and nodded for sure, "The fog has just dissipated, and the oxygen under the sea water has not recovered yet. This is the time when the sea water surface has the most fish, and it is indeed very suitable for fishing."
Li Xuan's octopus clone saw a lot of sea fish around him. Some of them were quite valuable, but these fish were relatively scattered and had no clusters.
Just when Li Xuan wanted to control the octopus clone and was wandering around.
Suddenly, Li Xuan saw a group of sea fish with large and pointed heads, square, wide chin, slender body, and spindle shape.
Those fish are very small and not as big as saury.
The big one is a little longer than Li Xuan's octopus clone, and may be nearly two meters tall.
After seeing the group of fish, Li Xuan was shocked and quickly controlled the octopus clone to escape in the direction of the fishing boat.
This kind of fish is one of the offshore overlords of the ocean, Pike.
The pike has a dense and spiked spike-like fangs that protrude like a wolf's teeth, so it is also called a sea wolf.
If this kind of fish is a single one, no matter how big it is, Li Xuan does not need to control the octopus clone and escape directly.
But this kind of fish can be called a wolf fish, and naturally it has some of the characteristics of a wolf. Wolves are all clustered.
The bulbuco has very sharp teeth, which can kill prey in one bite and even hurt people.
Their extremely sharp fangs can instantly behead the prey and then tear apart the large pieces of meat on the prey.
Moreover, pikes usually only eat soft parts of their prey, so even though they don’t eat a lot, they will still attack their prey frantically.
Li Xuan only has that much knowledge about Pikefish. Li Xuan is not very clear about the more specific data.
Because although pike is an offshore fish, it is accustomed to preying on distant waters.
It is so difficult for scientists to observe their complete hunting process.
In order to better study the feeding and predation characteristics of pikes, some people once kept captured pikes in captivity, but pikes in captivity often died shortly after.
Therefore, the hunting process and characteristics of pikes are still an unsolved mystery.
Despite this, the Barracuda has been frequently reported with its sea wolf teeth.
In Iowa State, a beautiful country, someone was once bitten on his thigh by a sudden attacking pike while swimming, and ended up sewing a full sixty stitches.
The part attacked by the pike often has a circle of dense small star-shaped holes, as if they were hit by a mace.
Li Xuan controlled the octopus clone and fled to the water tank at the bottom of the fishing boat. After tightly closing the glass door of the fishing tank, he was only able to take a closer look at the group of barracudas.
In fact, Li Xuan was very strange in his heart. There were so many pikes, big and small fish, so why did they gather together?
As far as Li Xuan knows, pikes are very lively and active, and they are scattered all over the world.
However, adult pikes often go alone, and only semi-adult pikes follow adult pikes.
Therefore, the figure of pikes in the ocean is often swam alone, known as the lonely hunter of the ocean.
Only when encountering an attack will the pikes gather from all directions to engage in legion battles and attack other marine predators.
The pike has good eyesight and is particularly alert. Whenever an external object appears around you, the pike can realize it immediately and react quickly.
When the pikes are attacked by foreign enemies, all the pikes in the fish will gather and arrange them into various spectacular formations.
For example, a huge formation composed of hundreds of pikes is often mistaken for a terrible super big fish by a dizzy shark, thus giving up attacking it.
In addition to building momentum with the crowd, Barracuda often uses the phosphorescence reflected from its scales to confuse its enemies.
The silver-gray scales on the large group of pikes gathered together can reflect strong dazzling and unstable scale light, which will make the enemy confused, and the pikes can take the opportunity to escape.
Barracudas seem to be unfair, but with the power of union, they can even fight off large enemies like sharks.
Li Xuan's octopus clone hid in the tempered glass fish tank made by the boat, and did not rashly order the crew to cast a net.
It is conceivable how powerful that ocean monster is that can bring so many pikes to gather.
In the ocean, ships are not invincible.
At least Li Xuan's steel-pulled fishing boat is not invincible.
In this endless sea, there are many marine monsters that can withstand the iron ships with flesh and blood.
The pike swims extremely fast, and can swim 43 kilometers per hour. Of course, this speed is limited to the power of the pike to escape when it is chased by the enemy, and can only last for a moment.
The prey chased by the pikes swims very fast, even faster than the swims of the wolves, and the direction they escaped was exactly the direction where Li Xuan was.
