Chapter Ninety-Five: Orcas

It was an abyss nearly 100 meters wide, and the three of them floated over it on a raft.

In the abyssal crack, a huge gray shark swung its tail and swam leisurely from a distance.

Depending on the location, it must have come from the ocean following a giant crack caused by a super earthquake.

It rises as it swims, and after a while the triangular dorsal fin emerges from the water and comes to the side of the raft.

Zhou Chen's scalp was numb, and he shouted: "Don't move at all!" ”

"Identification!"

【Deep Sea Shark (Virus Variant)】

Grade:???

……

"Sure enough!"

Zhou Chen's heart sank.

He was not surprised by the result.

The gray shark is terrifyingly large, with a three-story triangular dorsal fin that rises above the water, swimming past the raft like a submarine passing by, making humans realize their insignificance.

The deep-sea shark swims very slowly, so slow that Zhou Chen's three of them will suffocate!

The three of them watched as the deep-sea shark moved from far to near, and then its dorsal fin almost brushed the edge of the raft.

It swam for seven or eight seconds in its huge size, and in the process, Zhou Chen and the three of them looked down and could only see a piece of oily and slippery gray skin moving forward.

Seven or eight seconds later, the deep-sea shark passed the raft from head to tail and gradually faded away.

The three of them were relieved, Zhang Yufei sat on the raft and gasped for breath, Lin Wanyi kept patting her chest with both hands, feeling a kind of happiness for the rest of her life.

Fortunately, the level of the deep-sea shark is too high, and it is not interested in black iron-level humans, otherwise, it may be eaten by sea creatures today.

Zhou Chen said solemnly: "Everyone be careful, the tropical rainforest is completely submerged by the ocean and becomes a sea, if it falls into the water, the three of them may not be able to beat a black iron-level mutant sea creature." ”

Zhang Yufei cried with a sad face: "Fighting monsters in the water? Wipe! I can't swim! ”

"What are you afraid of?" Zhou Chen pursed his lips: "You transform into a metal war ant, the body length is close to ten meters, and the sea water can only be flooded by half at most." ”

Zhang Yufei was stunned, and then smiled: "What you said makes sense!" ”

"It's the two of us who should be worried." Zhou Chen looked at Lin Wanyi: "Don't panic after falling into the water, take a deep breath on the surface of the water and keep quiet, let your body sink to the bottom, and then move at high speed under the water." ”

As he spoke, Zhou Chen pointed to the bare trees in front of him: "You see, although the sea water floods the tropical rainforest, these big trees are very tall, most of them are above the water, and we can run to the trees before the oxygen in our bodies is exhausted with our black iron-level strength. ”

Lin Wanyi hesitated: "What if you fight?" Will the monsters in the water watch us escape? ”

Zhou Chen was helpless: "When the time comes, I can only improvise." ”

With that, the raft fell silent.

Three people take turns paddling for half an hour each.

The black iron level physique has extremely strong endurance, and this time can ensure that the physical fitness of the three people is always at the peak.

Because the sea water poured into the tropical rainforest, turning the land into a sea, and the water level became higher and higher, most of the land life died, and those who did not die fled.

Therefore, the frequency of monster attacks encountered by the three along the way decreased.

It's getting dark.

The trio did not find high ground, nor did they find buildings.

Under the dim sky, the sea is vast, dotted with dead trees of all sizes, without a trace of movement or life, just like an abandoned world.

Lin Wanyi tied the raft to a big tree, and the three of them climbed the tree to get together for the night.

Day 2, Day 3, Day 4......

Time passed.

Using the direction of the sun, the compass and compass, as well as the approximate route in his impression, Zhou Chen speculated on the sea route to Beichuan City.

In the process, due to various reasons, the route is often corrected by a small amount, which delays a lot of time.

A week later

early morning

One by one, the three of them jumped from the branches to the raft, shared an active snake meatball, and paddled off.

"I'm so thirsty." Zhang Yufei smiled bitterly while paddling weakly: "I feel like I can't bear it, and now I want to drink it when I see the seawater." ”

Zhou Chen's mouth was dry: "Bear with it, you can still persevere." ”

The three of them carried a lot of high-energy food with them, and drifted on the sea for a week, during which they fought with some sea creatures, and the stock of high-energy food plummeted, and nearly half of it was consumed, and even two of the wind mushroom eggs were eaten.

Although the consumption is great, there is no shortage of food so far.

The problem they face –

Lack of water!

These high-energy foods contain a lot of energy, but they have limited water.

Seawater can't be drunk directly, and the more you drink it, the more thirsty you will become, this is common sense, as far as the three of them know, there are two ways to drink fresh water while drifting at sea.

First: distillation

Heating seawater, turning seawater into steam, and then letting the steam condense down, because the salts dissolved in the seawater do not come out with the steam, so the condensation is almost pure distilled water.

Distillation yields not only fresh water, but also sea salt.

Second: reverse osmosis

The method of turning seawater into fresh water by reverse osmosis is also called 'membrane technology'.

The trio don't know 'membrane technology' and can only choose the distillation method.

But there is no land, so distillation is used on the trees, and the fresh water obtained is pitiful.

The three of them are black iron-level lifeforms, and their strong physique means that the consumption is also very large.

The fresh water obtained by distillation cannot satisfy even an ordinary person, let alone satisfy them.

To put it simply, it's better than nothing.

Because of the hot weather, sweating a lot, and not drinking water for a long time, the three of them had a dry mouth, and a layer of dry skin on the upper and lower lips was slightly chapped and bleeding.

"At this rate, it will take us at least half a month to arrive in Beichuan City." Lin Wanyi's face was full of worry: "Normal people don't eat and only drink water, it will cause 'water poisoning' in seven days, the electrolyte imbalance in the body, you can go to the emergency department to get a critical illness notice, if you only eat and don't drink water, you will face a death threat in about seven days, food and water complement each other, one is indispensable, with the strength of the three of us not drinking water for a long time, I think it can last another week at most." ”

Zhou Chen nodded in agreement.

The three of them had been adrift at sea for seven days, and if it weren't for the fact that the three of them were black iron level beings, the wind mushroom eggs and active snake meatballs contained a little water in them, and they were already on the verge of death.

One more week is the limit.

That's when it happened

"Whew!"

In the distance, a three- or four-story tall trumpet-shaped column of water erupted from the water.

Zhang Yufei pointed to the water column and said excitedly: "Whale! There are whales! ”

These days, the land is sinking, and the water level is rising, reaching a depth of ten meters, that is, enough to submerge three floors, and from time to time you can see marine life.

It is a black and white whale about 10 meters long, cruising and foraging.

After discovering Zhou Chen and the others, it erupted with a ferocious aura, like a vicious dog being imprisoned out of the cage, rushing over with a fierce momentum.

"Boom la la ......"

Whales swim quickly underwater, jumping out of the water from time to time, crossing an arc in the air and falling to make a splash of one floor.

"Identification!"

【Orca (Virus Variant)】

Grade: Black Iron

……

Zhou Chen looked up to the sky and smiled: "There is no endless road to heaven!" ”

At this point the raft floated next to a dead tree, and he jumped directly onto the tree.

Overclock, boot!

Bang!!

The air vibrates like a sonic boom!

Zhou Chen turned into a burst of red light and shot out!

In this environment, a red light shuttled from tree to tree at high speed in a brutal manner, knocking dead branches to pieces everywhere it went, and the 'click' sound was constant.

When approaching the orca, Zhou Chen stomped on both feet!

Hold a bone sword in your hand and slash a whale across the sea!
