Volume 1: The World of Dreams Chapter 55: Survival in the Ocean
On the Azure Star, people in the real world can dream with consciousness or body, occupying the identity of the dream character to achieve crossing. In the same way, people in dreams can borrow the bodies of real people to come to the real world.
The dream master can bring out a real person with a lower dream power than himself from any dream, so it is easy for Chen Mu to take Jiangnan in and out of the dream world. But what I didn't expect was that this time I actually brought out the person in the dream world.
When he suddenly appeared in the terrifying cabin of the water, Yang Chen was also shocked. But after all, he was a person who had experienced life and death several times and looked down on the flames of war, so he quickly calmed down. Just as he was about to break the cabin and leave directly, his heart was cold: his strength was empty, and his body was no different from ordinary people.
In a panic, he hurriedly looked for Chen Mu and the others. was paved by the sea water before, and he had no choice but to let go of Chen Mu's ankle, and when he found it again, he only saw a few figures that had come out of the cabin. Without hesitation, he immediately followed.
Shuttling through the wreck is a desperate thing, although Chen Mu has come once, it still has no help. Because, the dream they were in before had already lost control, and there was no trace of it from the real world, and he only returned to the dream last time when he only came out of half of his body.
Fortunately, perhaps the victims of the shipwreck were gathered at the highest point, and the cabin was located very high. The three of them left the room and saw the dark depths of the ocean. Surprised and panicked, they swam straight upward.
The golden light of hope spilled into the ocean, and the three of them had only one thought in their hearts: to swim in the direction of life. In this moment, suffocation makes time real, but the world becomes illusory.
Finally, the three surfaced.
The moment they came into contact with the air, the three of them breathed heavily, so much so that they choked on a lot of seawater. But in the end, the excitement outweighs the discomfort.
"Boss, I'm not dreaming this time, am I?"
The buoyancy of the sea water is greater than Jiangnan imagined, and she can float easily. But when I saw the scene on all sides, my heart was very heavy: water, all water, endless water.
"You're conscious?"
"I recovered from my dream, I wish it was a dream. Alas, I didn't expect it, I was chased by Wang Nian last time and almost drowned, and I just learned to swim so quickly to use it. ”
Thinking of this, Jiang Nan was even more depressed, he had such a chance that he had finally gotten and had not survived for a day. Now in the barren sea, the future is uncertain, it is too miserable and miserable.
Chen Mu couldn't understand someone's sadness, he had his own worries. The safety of the two daughters made him feel at ease, but there was no wave in front of him, and he didn't want to find a way to save himself, for fear of his life.
"Mu, look over there. ”
Li Luo reminded him, and the two of them looked at the situation, only to see that at the end of the open horizon, the morning light poured into the sea, and on the sea level, a little black shadow was revealed.
"Island, definitely island, we have been saved. ”
Jiangnan was overjoyed, Chen Mu didn't want to fight, but the truth was still sad: "Guess what, how did we get over?"
"Don't talk, let's save some effort. We should be able to swim through it before dark. ”
"Really, it looks far away, how did Sister Li estimate it?"
"The sun hasn't come out yet, what do you say?"
"Huh?"
Jiang Nan was shocked: "How could we have been able to swim for a day? If we were unlucky enough to encounter a shark or a sea monster or something, wouldn't we have died young?" ”
"Talk less and follow me. When you are tired of making a sound, you can stop and lie down on your back to rest. ”
Without time and energy to continue to delay, Chen Mu told the two girls to take off their coats and shoes, tie them under their bodies to increase buoyancy, and swim to the black spot in the most effortless posture.
The two women also tried to reduce the resistance, but a distant voice interrupted their thoughts.
"Rose, are you alright?"
"It's that guy, why did he come out?"
Yang Chen pounced and swam over, the strange encounter in front of him had already made him feel uneasy, if he let his sweetheart be hurt again, it would be fear.
"It's clear that his body was originally a real person. ”
"It's really haunting. ”
"Leave him alone, let's go. ”
When he came to the real world, all of Yang Chen's abilities would disappear, and Chen Mu didn't pay much attention to it. At the moment, ensuring that he and his two daughters survive is the key.
In this way, a strange scene appeared in the vast sea: a black shadow at three o'clock swam unhurriedly in front, and a figure behind hurriedly chased after it, but unfortunately its physical strength was limited, and every time it closed the distance, it had to slow down and rest. In the end, both sides became unhurried.
Swimming is physical work, and there is also skill to speak of. Some anthropologists have theorized that human beings come from the oceans, and whether they are right or wrong, the people who have the secrets to the oceans are like fish in water.
A day's ride sounds scary, floating, and that's it. Sleeping on the surface of the sea with stretched limbs, it is submerged three-quarters, just enough to breathe in the nostrils. The only torment is that I am too thirsty and hungry.
The distance was farther than expected, and the black dots were getting bigger and bigger, refreshing the views of the three of them every once in a while. Chen Mu encouraged all the way and took turns to help the two girls rest. At some point, he also felt a support under him, and as soon as he looked at it, a smooth dark object came into view.
"Dolphins, dolphins, they came to our rescue. ”
Jiang Nan shouted excitedly, and a fin emerged from under her and lifted her out of the water. She saw clearly that this was a group of deep-sea dolphins, with a pointed head and round brain, which was very cute, and it was lively and exciting. They cheered and jumped, turning the dead sea into a joyous paradise.
"I've always heard of dolphins saving people, but I didn't expect us to encounter them too. ”
Sitting on the dolphin, Li Luo was also in a good mood, and touched the cubs that were following him. Regardless of whether the other party was instinctive or not, she thanked this group of creatures who lived together in the Azure Star from the bottom of her heart.
However, their joy did not last long.
The dolphins are coming, and their predators are also killed.
Jiang Nan was the first to see a blue and white shadow jumping out of the water, and he was very surprised to point it out to Chen Mu and the others.
"Boss, Sister Li, look at what kind of species it is, it's bigger than a dolphin, and it's definitely more stable to ride. ”
"No, go down. ”
"Jiangnan, stop, it's to kill the sea monster. ”
The solemnity of Chen Mu and the others frightened Jiang Nan, and she also noticed the chaos of the dolphin group, so she hurriedly turned over and swam obediently to Chen Mu's side.
"Aren't dolphins at the top of the food chain? And there are so many of them, what are we afraid of?"
"Slaying the Kraken is not an original creature of Azure Star. ”
"Another dream creature invasion?"
"Yes, it was originally just private feeding, and some people used it to fight beasts, duels with killer whales and sharks. Stolen by conservationists, released into the ocean and turned into a hegemon. ”
As he spoke, the sea monster had been slain. There were not many of them, but seven or eight of them, and their true appearances were revealed in the floating jump: more than ten meters long, a large mouth across the head, and hideous and terrifying sharp fangs. The scarlet eyes, the huge fins and tails, and every inch of the body are all a declaration of strength.
Hmmm-
In a hurry, the dolphin leader also gave orders, and thousands of dolphins performed their duties and formed a battle formation to surround the enemy.
"Get out of here at a faster pace. ”
This is a battle of life and death for a behemoth, and Chen Mu does not dare to get involved. Beckoned the two to continue swimming in the sea, so as not to be affected by the fish pond.
The three of them had no way of knowing what the battle was like, but the smell of blood spread quickly. I don't know how far I swam, Jiang Nan was exhausted and wanted to slow down and rest, and looked back and was scared.
"Old. . . Boss, there's a big guy coming. ”
Chen Mu was immediately on guard, stopped diving in and turned around, and saw clearly that the other party was also facing a great enemy: a sea monster with a bloody mouth, with injuries on his body, and several deep scars that turned out to be white.
"Come here. ”
Li Luo took out the pistol, and she kept it with her to track down the suspect, although it was soaked in water, it did not affect the performance in any way. What is uncertain is how much damage it can do to kill the Kraken.
"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. ”
After a long confrontation, Jiang Nan felt that his feet and legs were going to cramp, and his palms were numb, but he still didn't see the action of killing sea monsters. After a long time, they will be finished without the other party's exit.
"Luoluo, give me the gun, you take Jiang Nan first. ”
"No, at least not this time, I want to go. ”
Li Luo refused very resolutely, Chen Mu was suddenly moved, and instead suggested: "Keep an eye on it, backstroke." ”
Cautiously, the three of them slowly lay on the surface of the water, gently paddling their limbs to move. The sea monster slayer looked at them and didn't seem to make any moves, but after a long time, the distance between the two sides was still not far or close.
Time passes with the waves, and the sun sets back into the ocean. Chen Mu and the three of them were already accustomed to the existence of killing sea monsters, and unexpectedly, the other party inexplicably dived into the sea.
At that moment, the three of them were immediately vigilant, floating in the water with their backs together, beware of possible crises above and below the water.
After a long time, they finally decided: the sea monster is gone.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and raised their eyes to see where they were. I saw a tall, vast, and boundless island appear in front of me.
"Ah, Mother Earth, I'm coming. ”
Night has come, and the stars shine on the island, and I don't know where the two sides grow. Jiang Nan shouted, not knowing where he got the strength, he directly opened the distance and swam quickly.
"Jiangnan, slow down. ”
Chen Mu reminded loudly, but unfortunately the other party couldn't listen. There is also Li Luo by his side, and he can't use it for two purposes, so he has to stare at it from afar and pray for the safety of the woman.
Soon, Jiangnan regretted it. After a period of exertion, the already weak limbs suddenly lost their strength. The abyssal fear came over her heart, and she was terrified, trying to swing her head and foot as hard as she could, when the pain of misalignment of her muscles and bones struck suddenly: she had cramps.
The body sank in an instant, Jiang Nan shouted for help, and was poured into his heart and lungs by the seawater. A deathly despair welled up in her heart, stirring up her frenzy for survival.
Fortunately, just as she was about to sink, someone lifted her up.
"Ahem!Woo——, boss, you saved my life again. The little woman can't repay her, is it okay to promise her body?"
"Save some effort, it's coming soon. ”
A sea swim swept up all the strength of the three of them. With the lapping of the waves, I successfully lay down on the beach. Half of his body was still submerged in the water, and he was already lying on the ground and didn't want to move.
And this short break is a whole night.
Chen Mu was woken up by hunger, it was not yet dawn, he got up from the beach, and laughed when he saw the three of them in embarrassment.
Walking to Li Luo's side, the girl was still asleep. Lying quietly on the beach and the sea, under the morning stars and the moon, the dilemma has become beautiful. The warm sea softens her green silk, and a little snow waves fall on her nose. With smooth skin and a slightly pale soft lip, it looks very pitiful.
Chen Mu didn't wake up the woman, kissed his forehead, and picked it up lightly - soaking in water like this, it looks good, but sooner or later he will get sick.
Bringing Jiangnan back to a clean place in the same way, Li Luo had already woken up, and saw that Chen Mu was obviously relieved, and a knowing smile appeared in his eyes.
