Chapter 440: Raising a Pet

Qiu Xuan tried to stabilize the inevitable violent shaking sensation and crouched down on the roof of the car that was about to be submerged, she firmly fixed one hand to a point of force, and tried to reach for something in the turbulent water with the other.

Executioner AB was still looking for other ways to get out of the water while summoning the guild to send someone over, they didn't see the dangerous move of Qiu Xuan half of his body had already probed into the water, but Ed, who was squatting on the side with weak legs, saw it clearly.

His face turned pale and he could not say a word, only to see another violent wave tumbling towards their already crumbling body, and in a tooth-aching creak, the body suddenly broke a few points from the middle.

"Help!"

Ed's center of gravity was unstable, and the whole person slid into the waves, and the next second, one hand slammed into his arm, and he threw it up again with one force. Ed Shang was in a state of panic, he intuitively felt that one of Mr. A or Mr. B had saved him, and hurriedly wiped his face to thank him, but the next second he was surprised to see that the hand holding his arm was actually a "newcomer" who belonged to another colleague.

Qiu Xuan didn't pay attention to the other party's eyes, let go of her hand, and raised her chin to point in the direction of the nearest towering building stationed in the water.

"Do you see that place, this broken car is about to sink, even if there is a new person to protect us, we will be extremely passive in the water in this situation, so now we have to go over there."

"that ......," Ed wiped the drops of water from his face incredulously, "so far!" And now there are shipwrecks and big waves everywhere, what do we use to get there?! ”

Qiu Xuan: "Walk over with your feet." ”

She said as she stood up first, jumping directly across her legs onto the kayak before her.

"I can't jump!"

Ed tried to call out to her from behind, "And it's really too dangerous!" Shouldn't we be with our predecessors? ”

Qiu Xuan turned her head faintly: "Didn't you notice that there was no one around you anymore?" ”

Ed's eyes widened suddenly, and sure enough, Ed was the only one left on the roof that was already crumbling and about to sink, and the figures of A and B had long since disappeared from view.

"They...... Where did it go? ”

"I don't know," Qiu Xuan turned around and continued to look for the next place to put her feet. "Now that the binding has been canceled, there are two scenarios. One is that they don't want to get into trouble and leave after unbinding themselves, and the other is that they have been swept to the bottom of the water and died. ”

Ed cried with a sad face, "So what are we going to do?" ”

Qiu Xuan shook her head, stared at the several executioners in front of her who were swept high by the huge waves and thrown high and slammed down, pursed her lips, and suddenly jumped straight into the waves from the kayak.

Ed: "Come on!" ”

Qiu Xuan swam forward for a distance, and the current of water around her that seemed to be manipulated by some force would not say that she deliberately avoided her position, but her situation was still much better than the situation where the people around her needed to worry about being swept to the bottom of the water from time to time.

It can be said that the "Rookie Friendly Pass" still plays a role to a certain extent, just like all the people in the position of the water city, she and Ed seem to have been given some lucky increase on their bodies, and as long as they are careful along the way, there is a high probability that there will be no major problems.

"Did you find something?"

She plunged into a swoop, swam to a stalled kayak, and suddenly poked her head out of the water.

The executioner in charge of Shuicheng above the kayak was taken aback by this, and after reacting, the strong man in charge who left in a hurry before looked solemn and said, "This matter is our fault, you don't have to worry about it, leave the Shuicheng area by yourself." ”

"I want to leave too," Qiu Xuan furrowed her eyebrows, and pressed her wrist on the edge of the kayak to get into the boat. "But you've also seen the current situation, and under normal circumstances, you can't go without relying on special tools, what can you do?"

The person in charge glanced at each other a few times, and the strong man who seemed to be familiar with Qiu Xuan before was silent for a while, and suddenly thought of something, and raised his hand to stop his companion's movements.

"I don't care who you are," he said as he looked at Qiu Xuan. "But your current status is 'newcomer', you are still in the twenty-four-hour protection period, and now you are the most suitable person, you have to do us this favor."

"She's a newcomer?" Another staff member looked at him suspiciously, "But what can a newcomer do even if he has a pass on him?" ”

"Tell me what's going on down there."

Qiu Xuan didn't care about the other party's suspicious tone, just looked at the strong man who spoke before. "Besides, even if you're a newcomer, you can't work for nothing, right? What can you pay me? ”

The strong man was categorical, "You help us solve this matter, and I will give you 1,000 passes." ”

Qiu Xuan: "Goodbye." ”

"Wait!" The strong man hurriedly changed his words, "We can sit down and talk slowly after the reward, but this matter is the first priority now, please be sure to dive with our people." ”

Qiu Xuan thought for a while, "The 1,000 pass coins will be used as a deposit first, and then we will talk about it when we come up." ”

"Yes." Afraid that she would not agree, the strong man immediately responded, and gave Qiu Xuan's personal account 1,000 coins on the spot. The latter checked and confirmed that it was completed, and stretched out his hand seemingly very friendly, and the strong man also shook her with a smile.

Seeing that the group got on the submarine and began to dive, the strong man stood on the kayak as if relieved. However, then, his face changed drastically, and he suddenly rolled up his sleeves like crazy and repeatedly checked the skin of his forearm, only to see a thick black totem engraved on it.

……

"So, you call this thing a 'pet'?"

At the bottom of the water city, I don't know how deep it is, a small diving equipment is slowly moving forward in it. It is no more than three meters long, with a dull surface, and can almost blend in with the unknown aquatic plants around it underwater.

"After all, no one knew it could grow like this until it was called a 'pet'!"

A person in charge of the water city sat in the driver's seat, carefully inspecting the environment ahead, and then slowly drove past a dark black group of mutated plants.

That's right, the executioner of Watertown quickly investigated the cause after that, and the culprit of the underwater turmoil was a "pet" smuggled over and kept underwater. The owner of the pet brought it back to the ground in one of the usual planes, and according to the man, the scientific name of the thing was "Water Baby".

It is probably similar to another kind of colorful bead toy, which leads to the fact that after this "water baby" enters adulthood, the situation is out of control.

"Well, it probably looked like this before, it's cute, right?"

The person in charge handed Qiu Xuan a display screen, on which a spherical shape with a round head and a round brain was holding a small claw and dangling, which looked a bit like a slime, and it was indeed not an exaggeration to describe it as cute.

Qiu Xuan rowed to the next dynamic picture, and then fell silent.

It was recorded by the staff who had just risked their lives to investigate the situation, and a single face took up the entire screen, which may not be called a face, because there were potholes everywhere, like the prototype of a stitching monster that had been corroded by sulfuric acid and then put together with broken stitches.

The thing had a mouthful of yellow teeth, and with every stream of water that spat out of its mouth, a body of water spiraled out of control, as if it had been stirred violently by an invisible, giant stirring rod stretched into a pot.

There is also a middle-aged man next to him, who is simply normal and pitifully small compared to a certain suture monster in this shot, and people can't notice his existence. What really caught the attention was his words and actions, with the man half-kneeling on a stranded boat, crying and shouting "baby".

“…… This is the master? ”

"Yes." The person in charge also pressed his temple with a headache, "We have now controlled the man, but no matter how you ask, he bites and says that his pet is innocent, and he doesn't know how things came to be like this." ”

Qiu Xuan scratched his head, the reason for the silence just now was not that his pupils were too shaky, but that the person who cried a handful of snot and tears at a disfigured goblin himself knew, it was a member of Linyuan.

Qiu Xuan remembered him, and he was almost present in the few times he was in Linyuan before. It was a middle-aged man who was inconspicuous and unremarkable in the crowd, and he didn't have a very close relationship with the other members on weekdays, often going alone or locked up in his room alone.

But he has a better relationship with Cangwu, and occasionally the two of them will have a meal together or something.

Qiu Xuan secretly took out the communicator and looked at it a few times, but Cangwu did not respond to her, but Jiang Beihe left a message: "Hehe, do you still know to come back?" ”

She withdrew her gaze and silently glanced at the detector screen.

"Even if we manage to get close to that ...... 'water baby', how do we solve it? Do you have a large weapon on you? ”

"It didn't work." The person in charge didn't look back and said, "Our people have tried it before, even if the laser cannon hits that monster, it will automatically call up the water source and repair the wounds on the body within a few minutes." So we went to find the executioner who was originally from that world, and the other party said that as long as this kind of thing is free from the water immersion, it will return to its original state in a few days. ”

Qiu Xuan looked at him silently, "...... How to get out? Your place is full of water. ”

"So it's up to you." The person in charge finally turned around and looked at her with an inexplicably complicated and somewhat pitying look, "You have the rules for the protection of newcomers, so whether it is us or other creatures, we will definitely be affected by the rules and will unconsciously avoid you, unless you take the initiative." This monster should be the same, and you can use this rule to slowly push it out of the range of Watertown. ”

"That's a good idea." Qiu Xuanpi didn't smile, "You should know better how big Fan Zhuo Water City is, right?" Little by little, I didn't know how much time I had to spend under the water, and after twenty-four hours, I drowned in the water. ”

The person in charge looked innocent and said, "But this is the best way so far." ”

Qiu Xuan was noncommittal, she pointed her fingertips on the screen in front of her, and looked at the scene in front of her silently for a while, and suddenly said, "What is the fastest speed that you can achieve with this thing?" ”

"This is the most advanced stealth combat submarine," the person in charge looked at her with some inexplicability. "In terms of speed, it won't be a problem to cross the diameter range of the water city in two hours."

"Okay, then you'll attack it, and then drive as fast as you can towards the nearest bordering land."

"What are you kidding?" The person in charge immediately shouted, "As long as this monster is in the water, it can be said that the entire water city is its weapon!" Can we outrun the water itself? ”

"Isn't it going to resist me?"

The person in charge shook his head, "But it is not an executioner after all, even if you have rookie protection time, it can't be a complete gold medal for avoiding death." ”

"It's over," Qiu Xuan unbuckled and stood up from her seat. "Let's do it quickly, don't forget that there are so many people on the water, and the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for us."

The person in charge was still hesitating, Qiu Xuan squinted his eyes and looked at the detector screen in front of him for a while, suddenly raised his hand, and pressed a button on the operation panel with lightning speed.

"Don't ......!"

“……”

The two looked silently at the transparent window made on the side of the submarine, and two small brushes poked their heads out to wipe the glass diligently, Qiu Xuan sighed for this familiar scene, and then in the next second before the person in charge could react, he pressed his hand and broke down another lever on the operation board.

"You!"

Several underwater pursuit bombs broke through the deep water and rushed towards the behemoth in front of them, and the person in charge opened his mouth wide and just wanted to curse, but the next second he was pressed on his shoulders and sat down, and his hands were forced to put on the operation board.

"It's catching up." Qiu Xuan stood next to Liang Liang and reminded him.

So the person in charge glared at her fiercely, there was no way, and he could only change the slow speed of the old sightseeing scooter before, and increase the speed of the submarine to the maximum and shuttle underwater.

Qiu Xuan's eyes were firmly fixed on the rearview mirror of the submarine, only to see that behind their butts, a huge black shadow seemed to be angry and turned its head to stare in this direction. Although I can't see the specific appearance of the black mass very clearly, with the amazing appearance I saw in the recorder before, I can probably automatically complete what kind of image it is.

"Are there any oxygen cylinders?"

She fumbled with her fingers on the bulkhead, and then was scolded viciously by the person in charge.

"Of course not! All of us were trained to hold our breath underwater for more than an hour! ”

Qiu Xuan sighed, and had no choice but to say, "Then you remember to open the door for me later." ”

As he spoke, he threw the rope around his waist into the inner compartment and secured it, took a deep breath, and squeezed out of the drain.

As soon as her body came into contact with the water source, she was almost instantly overturned by the water elemental that was raging and frantically flowing underwater. After barely adapting to it for a while, she finally reached the tail fin with the outer wall of the fast-moving submarine, and she finally faced the "baby who has not yet passed adulthood".
