Chapter 787

    "Hiss..." The sound of the first mate sucking in cold air slowed down the movement of the ship doctor''s hand who was given to deal with the wound. This also caused the shell sword, which had just moved out of the wound a little bit, to return to its original place.


    "What are you doing?" The chief officer saw that the ship doctor had stopped his action, but his pain was still the same, and he let out a low roar. This voice scared the doctor very much. He was a sailor who had only learned the knowledge of first aid. He was far away from the real doctor. However, the situation in front of him was beyond his ability. In addition, he lost his last confidence. So the ship doctor simply released his hands, saying that he was powerless. Fortunately, before things got any further, Captain hafdan noticed the situation here.


    "What''s going on?" The captain''s question was somewhat absent-minded, and most of his attention was focused on listening to the drums of other ships and guarding against possible enemies. In fact, it was hafdan''s worry. Although it was in the thick fog, the black arrow was still in the center of the fleet. Given that there were pallets between the ships to supply water and provide reinforcements, the sea monsters had no plan to disintegrate the whole fleet from the middle. After all, ships and land are different. If a ship in a key position is lost, the human side can completely change the formation to turn the disadvantage into the advantage.


    "Captain, I haven''t seen such a strange thing. I''m afraid I''ll have to amputate." The doctor half truely explained to hafdan, but since the first mate''s wound is in the waist, if you want to amputate the limb, I''m afraid that the prosthetic person will not know whether to do the upper body or the lower body. It''s a joke of course, but it''s not all fake.


    The captain frowned and handed the machete to the doctor and told him to watch around. Then squat down and carefully observe the first mate''s wound. Thanks to the light of the torch, the fog was not so thick that he could not see his fingers. The captain could clearly see how the spiral sword with various barbs and sharp hooks was embedded into the body of his crew.


    It is impossible for human beings to create such vicious weapons. It should be said that no intelligent race will deliberately spend such a huge effort to create such a long sword just for tormenting opponents. But the creatures that come out of nature always have more imagination than those self possessed creatures, don''t they? After observation, hafdan was able to confirm that the sword was composed of a complex number of conch shells glued together in an unknowable way. The purpose was to turn the defensive barb on the conch into a weapon that would make life worse than death for the opponent.


    In fact, it''s a bit of a mistake for letao to let the enemy die. It''s true that they don''t like human beings, but it doesn''t mean that they would rather give up the efficient way of fighting, but also use this kind of weapon that will stick to the skin of the opponent to reduce their efficiency. The spiral sword was not originally made to fight against human beings, and the barb on them was not to turn over the flesh and blood after piercing the soft skin tissue of human beings. The spiral sword was made on the premise of fighting between sea monsters. And those hooks are formed to peel off the scales on the opponent.


    However, knowing the correct use of the shell sword does not mean that it can solve the current dilemma. Hafdan tried to move the blade in several directions, which resulted in the loosening of some barbs and the deepening of others. If you want to pull this cruel weapon out of the chief mate, you must do a good job with the awareness of bringing a lot of flesh and blood. Now the captain can only hope that these hooks do not touch the internal organs of the human body, otherwise, once the organs are damaged, the consequences will be even more disastrous.


    "Captain, don''t tease me. That quack can''t get this thing out, can you? Pull it out quickly, I can go on to deal with other fish people! " The first mate was frightened by hafdan''s silence. On this ship, the captain is the absolute authority. Even if the doctor announced that he had no way out, the chief mate still believed that his captain would be able to deal with his wounds. Hafdan did not immediately give a disappointing answer. He was thinking about another possibility.


    The old captain''s hand rubbed on the shell sword, and soon found the answer he wanted, "two people to help me, want a strong arm, quick!" Several sailors answered, and quickly selected the two with the most powerful arms to follow the captain''s orders. Hafdan asked them to hold the blade of the shell sword from left to right, and then to pick up the first mate''s axe.


    "It may hurt a little. Bear with it." After that, without giving the first mate time to answer, the Tomahawk had already been waved, and accurately hit the shell sword''s body, "click!" The sound of the shell shattering satisfied the captain. He wanted to cut the weak part of the shell sword into pieces, so that the sword body embedded in the chief officer''s body was reduced. The fact has proved that although the hardness of the shell sword is comparable to that of the iron sword, it can never change the characteristics of its material. When a heavy weapon such as a Tomahawk hits its edge, the body of the sword will break.


    There was no more words, but he nodded to the two sailors. The captain raised his axe again and cut it towards the other end of the sword. This time, the sailor on the other side couldn''t hold the shell sword very well because of the missing part of the sword. After the captain''s Tomahawk wiped a piece of fire on the sword, there was no success. But after these two shocks, the sword body that pierced the chief mate''s body had a vibration, and some blood had flowed along the wound. Hafdan was in trouble. He was afraid that another failed attempt would backfire and aggravate the crew''s injuries.Who can make a living on the sea, isn''t that a dead man? The first mate clenched his teeth and pushed a sailor away. Holding the shorter side, he looked at haftan and said, "come on!"


    The captain said no more, swung his axe and fell down, "click!" The shell sword broke at the sound, leaving only half a finger long blade stuck in the sailor''s waist. Although such an injury seems serious, it is not fatal in a short time. As long as this position is no longer hit, the chief officer can even recover most of his ability to move.


    "When you get back to shore, find a proper doctor to take it down. Now you can take it as a souvenir." Hafdan''s words caused a burst of laughter. Sailors have similar habits. Most sailors have earrings on their ears. Although the material may not be worth money, it is a way for them to show off their booty.


    However, the relaxed atmosphere did not last long, and the drum sound in the fog gradually accelerated. "Captain, there''s a call for help on the right wing!" "Captain, there''s a call for help on the left!" "Captain! We''ve got a sneak attack on our ass! " The sailors who were in charge of distinguishing the drums reported their information one by one. Hafdan''s face sank. He knew that this was what the war should look like. The sirens won''t make it that easy.


    "You go down and look after the cabin first, the more you can''t mess up now." The first mate stood up from the deck, nodded to the captain and went to his post. Behind him could be heard the voice of hafdan giving orders, "you guys, support the right wing! You, go to the left and see what''s going on! "


    When the first mate stepped off the cabin, he had no reason to think that there was still no ripple on the sea surface.
