Chapter Seventy-Six: Life Hangs by a Thread
Lives are at stake. Owen was as calm as ever, and his expression didn't show any waves. He hugged Ivy with one hand, untied his tie with the other, and waved his hand around the exposed steel bar above his head.
The two hung in the air, temporarily saving their lives.
Dead, dead. Ivy closed her eyes tightly and let out a few hoarse cries from her throat, her body shaking like chaff.
The wind shook them to the ground. Owen tried to climb upwards, but as soon as he exerted his strength, the steel bar above his head came loose and fell sharply, and the only straw he had was about to collapse.
Ivy's mind flashed through countless thrilling scenes from the movies. If this continues, the two of them will be finished hugging each other. She felt extremely guilty in her heart, complaining that she shouldn't have acted on her own.
If it weren't for saving me...... I was the one who hurt Owen. She bit her lip tightly, slowly let go of her arm, and fell backwards.
"Are you crazy, don't mess with me at this time!" Owen grabbed her upper arm and shouted at her. His tone was both reproachful and concerning.
"Leave me alone, you may be able to escape for your life. Ivy snorted, her body trembling in the wind.
Does this girl think she's making a movie? Owen was angry and amused, and reassured her, "Trust me, we'll be fine." ”
The sea at their feet was about ten meters away from the two of them, and the turbulent sea water hit the rocks on the shore with a deafening sound.
Once you fall, you will either be swept to the bottom of the sea by the waves or slapped to death on the rocks. If it was only Owen himself, he would have been able to escape, but now that there is someone around him, he can't be 100% sure of her safety.
No up, no down. There's no time to hesitate. Instead of passively waiting for death, take a risk.
"Hold on to my waist and don't let go of your hand no matter what happens, you know?" he tied their waists together with his tie.
"What?" Before Ivy could think about the meaning of his words, a sense of weightlessness had swept over her, and the powerful air rushed against her, only to feel that the world was spinning, and her heart felt as if it was about to pop out of her chest.
Owen hugged her tightly and plunged into the raging sea. Ah—her screams were drowned out by the noise of wind, rain and waves. She didn't dare to open her eyes, in fact, she couldn't open them, don't be afraid, just play bungee jumping, she silently recited in horror in her heart.
Like a loaded cannonball, the two of them plunged into the sea and sank to the depths of the sea. At the moment of falling into the water, her eyes were dark and she could not see anything. The salty sea water poured into her eyes, ears, mouth and nose from all directions, and the constant lack of oxygen combined with the pressure of the sea water made her chest hurt.
Instinctively, Ivy wrapped herself firmly around Owen like an octopus. Under Owen's protection, she will not turn into a humble speck of dust, swallowed by the forces of nature in an instant.
Under the dual effects of water pressure and lack of oxygen, a colorful halo appeared in front of her eyes. It didn't take long for the halo to fade away, and a dead darkness ensued.
After the two of them sank more than ten meters in the water, Owen began to exert his strength and swam towards the surface of the water overhead. After genetic modification, he can hold his breath underwater for up to 30 minutes, and with his special muscle explosiveness and endurance, he can easily escape even in the wind and waves of level 8 or 9.
However, the situation was worse than Owen expected, and the wind and waves formed a huge whirlpool in the sea, sweeping the two to the depths of the sea. He struggled to swim towards the sea above his head, but the suction of the whirlpool was too strong for him to resist, let alone carry a "drag oil bottle".
She had been starved of oxygen for more than two minutes, and Owen could feel her body gradually softening and seemed to be unconscious. He was a little afraid in his heart, and a voice in the depths of his consciousness said: Save her, don't let her have anything to do.
Only to activate that, he gritted his teeth.
In times of crisis, AR agents can activate their own superconducting program, instantly increasing their physical fitness by more than three times. This principle is similar to the fact that when an ordinary person is faced with a threat, the sympathetic nervous system secretes adrenaline, which temporarily stimulates the abnormal force of the human body.
Of course, superconducting programs can only be used as a tool for short-term combat or self-preservation. Within an hour after starting, if the special antagonist drug α3 is not taken in time, all organs of the body will be rapidly depleted, energy and physical energy will be exhausted, and then lead to cardiac arrest, the consequences are tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst.
Every AR agent carries α3 pills with them in case of emergency, and Owen is no exception. He hid the pills in the dark compartment of his tie in case he needed them. However, in the process of falling into the sea, the tie was swept away by the waves, and the superconducting program was started without medicine, which is probably ......
I can't care about it so much, it's important to save Ivy. In an instant, Owen's eyes turned golden brown, and the muscles all over his body were full and distinct, and the green muscles were bulging. His legs slid rapidly alternately in the water, as if he had put on Iron Man's armor, and he was instantly endowed with great power, and he swam quickly towards the sea with Ivy with him.
