At Shangrao Dock in Righteous Prosperity Town, the river breeze blew gently, and the tiny, continuous waves lapped against the bluestone, reflecting the brilliance of the sky.
A tower ship passed in front of the dock, with flags fluttering, drawing the attention of the fishermen, who even forgot to pull in their nets.
“What a big ship! It must be thirty zhang long! What kind of noble lord could be so grand?”
“It's probably four or five stories high, taller than the tallest Wavecloud Pavilion in Peaceful Sun County! Won't it fall over at that height?”
“Wait! Run! Quick, run! There are demonic beasts! Run!”
A cry of terror spread across the dock as the fishermen squinted into the distance, seeing that the area around the ship was teeming with River Dolphins, densely packed!
These fishermen, who had spent a lifetime fishing without schooling, had never seen such a sight.
Five or six-meter-long River Dolphins, larger than the fishing boats, were something they couldn't contend with.
They hastily grabbed their oars and paddled frantically towards the shore.
“Don't panic! River Dolphins aren't demonic beasts; they don't harm people! They're more docile than dogs!” shouted a young man from a nearby merchant ship as it approached the dock.
The fishermen were stunned.
