Chapter 17: The Power of the Artifact
Swimming in the sea for a long time, Gao Ze's body was already as dexterous as a fish, and in the face of the sinking of the broken ship, he tried his best to dodge, but because the whole boat was upside down, he was in the warehouse, so no matter how he dodged, he could only follow the direction of the hull in the end, and he couldn't escape at all.
Gao Ze was a little anxious, looked at the knife in his hand, and wanted to slash at it, but seeing the thickness as fragile as a toy knife, he hesitated again, worried that he would destroy this knife with an extraordinary origin.
In the middle of the struggle, suddenly the entire hull shook slightly, stopping the downward trend, Gao Ze saw the opportunity and immediately found a hole, swam out, and when he swam out, he saw the mermaid with a serious face and his hands in a strange posture.
When Xiaomei saw Gao Ze escape from it, she breathed a sigh of relief, her hands scattered, and the boat sank like a stone into the bottomless trench.
At this time, Gao Ze finally understood that the hull of the ship was not stuck between the trenches just now, but was made to stay for a moment by this girl with great magical powers, so he immediately swam over, and was about to say something, when he suddenly felt a loud noise in the direction of the hull sinking, and then a strange roar came from inside.
Hearing this roar, Gao Ze and Xiaomei's faces changed at the same time, and the two no longer hesitated, and immediately swam towards the sea. Xiaomei swims very fast, although Gao Ze tries his best, he can't compare with her, at this moment, he hates his legs, and he can't become a big tail like Xiaomei.
Xiaomei fled at full speed, as fast as an arrow, and when she saw that Gao Ze couldn't keep up, she immediately turned back, took his hand, and fled with him.
The reaction of the two was already fast, but the underwater monster came faster, and it stretched out two long tentacles and wrapped them directly around the two.
"Big octopus!" Gao Ze saw the white tentacles as thick as a bucket, and his heart was so frightened that his heart jumped out.
Xiaomei saw that it was too late, so she had to put down Gao Ze, and used her big tail to fight back against the entangled tentacles, and every time she hit, the surrounding sea water produced huge fluctuations, and in this strong fluctuation, Gao Ze was like a dead fish, and could only drift with the waves.
"Run!" Xiaomei resisted the two tentacles with all her strength, and gestured at Gao Ze.
Thinking that the other party was the daughter of the sea after all, there must be a killer feature, Gao Ze didn't want to keep the festival anymore, and immediately took advantage of the surging undercurrent to swim to the sea in the distance with all his might.
Due to the dim light under the water, Gao Ze, who was absconding, only felt waves of undercurrents beating him, and it seemed that the entire sea water was stirred, but he couldn't see the specific battle situation over there, and he couldn't help but be a little worried about Xiaomei.
"It's really useless, I hope Xiaomei can be safe and sound!" Gao Ze blamed himself and prayed secretly.
After swimming for a few minutes, Gao Ze suddenly felt the movement in the water, which suddenly disappeared, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
"Defeated?" Gao Ze's heart was hanging, he wanted to escape, and his conscience was uneasy, if it weren't for him, it was estimated that Xiaomei would have been able to get out of the way. Thinking so, he felt that there was really no movement over there, and he decided to go back and check the situation.
As soon as he swam over, Gao Ze was heartbroken to find that Xiaomei had been entangled in a huge tentacle, and at this time, her body was emitting a dazzling blue light, and she was fighting against the contraction of the tentacles with all her might.
Seeing that the powerful mermaid was entangled by this big octopus, Gao Ze retreated again, and it was estimated that he ran over to deliver food. Seeing Xiaomei being gradually dragged to the bottom of the sea by that big tentacle, especially seeing the desperate eyes she accidentally cast, Gao Ze's brain was hot, and he finally rushed forward without hesitation.
As soon as he rushed up, another huge tentacle quickly attacked Gao Ze. Seeing the thick and powerful tentacles, Gao Ze's heart tightened, clenched the knife, and subconsciously slashed it.
The green light flashed, and something surprising Gao Ze happened, the huge tentacles that seemed to be extremely tough were actually cut in two by him like grass mustard.
"Artifact!" After Gao Ze had this idea in his heart, his confidence increased greatly, and he immediately swam in the direction of Xiaomei. He didn't realize that in the palm of his hand, a golden light poured into the knife.
The big octopus lost a hand, and his courage seemed to be frightened, and he no longer dared to attack Gao Ze, but directly pestered Xiaomei and quickly retreated to the dark trench.
Gao Ze chased for a while, and found that he was getting farther and farther away, knowing that Xiaomei was swept down, and it must be a dead end, so he threw the knife in his hand and threw it at Xiaomei.
Gao Ze's abnormal movement, Xiaomei saw it in her eyes, surprised by the sharpness of the knife, and when she saw the knife thrown over, she immediately cast a spell and sucked the knife over.
After the knife was in her hands, Xiaomei didn't have time to think about it, and directly slashed at the tentacles of the big octopus. The green light streaked across her tentacles, and immediately like tofu, it was easily sliced open.
After the body was liberated, the mermaid immediately swam in the direction of Takasawa.
After a while, the big octopus lost two hands in a row, and although there were six other tentacles available, it didn't dare to attack again, but honestly retracted into the trench.
After the mermaid was saved, she glanced at Gao Ze deeply, and that gaze was full of surprise, gratitude, and endless affection.
Gao Ze showed a signature smile, stretched out his fingers, hooked Xiaomei's nose affectionately, made an evacuation gesture, and the two held hands and left the dangerous trench together.
Swimming until he reached the surface of the sea, Gao Ze breathed a sigh of relief, inhaled a breath of salty and humid air, and he couldn't help but yell at the sky.
When Xiaomei saw it, she also shouted with her, but the voice was crisp and pleasant, like a fairy sound, but it was not domineering at all.
"The sea is really full of danger." Gao Ze floated on the water, lazily basking in the sun, he had been swimming with all his strength just now, and now he was really tired.
"Originally, did you get this knife from a ship? That's amazing! Xiaomei exclaimed.
"Yes, this knife looks inconspicuous, and the blade doesn't seem to be opened, I didn't expect it to be so sharp!" Gao Ze said. After speaking, he also had a bottom in his heart, it seems that the inheritance of the guardian god is really powerful, if it weren't for its guidance, he would never have found the broken ship, let alone the knife hidden deep in the sea.
"You...... Is it really human? Xiaomei saw Gao Ze's thoughtful appearance and asked softly.
"yes." After Gao Ze finished speaking, seeing that she didn't believe it, he said again: "Is this important? ”
Xiaomei listened to it, thought about it, Wan'er smiled, and said, "Yes, it's not important!" ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.
After that, the journey became much more fragrant, after living and dying together, although Xiaomei didn't say anything, her favorability and attachment to Gao Ze increased significantly, and she was not so resistant to the salty pig hands that he stretched out from time to time.
With a mermaid as a companion, Gao Ze was a little happy, and the process of returning to Pengcheng was obviously slowed down, anyway, the old man had a big heart, and he didn't die, and he was not in a hurry at this moment, you know, not every man has the opportunity to soak in a mermaid.
Of course, there are imperfections in the journey, Xiaomei likes to caress and kiss in the water, while Gao Ze prefers to be on the island, because, only when he arrives on the island, the mermaid will become a perfect woman, in the water, against the big tail that has no forks, he is simply powerless to complain......
