Twilight Star

At a depth of hundreds of meters, the water has a palpitating dark red color, and it is impossible to see sunlight at such depths. So the environment here is basically the same as night.

Yun Haoyu hid quietly under a huge reef, the water temperature here was already very low, and the insulation in the double wetsuit had been working, but he still felt a biting chill. This feeling does not come from the body, but from the heart!

The dark seabed is full of dangers, and there are no less than ten species of famous creatures within a radius of fifty meters just from the center of the hiding place. Two meters away on his left hand, a snake-scaled starfish half-buried its body in the sand; To the right, several deer vines are feasting on an unlucky sturgeon.

Overhead, the dark red epiphany jellyfish stretched its thick tentacles, which were said to easily tear through the high-strength alloy walls of the diving module.

If he turned his head slightly, he could see a mountain-sized sawtooth worm napping forty meters away, and a thigh-thick rot worm lying next to it. There are also unnamed things, each of which could easily kill him!

During the hours he was lurking, he even spotted a Moro shark! I don't know how it has the leisure to come to the relatively shallow sea area at a depth of 300 meters, it is said that this kind of deep-sea overlord, the top ten murderous creatures on the Twilight Star have never been active in the sea area below 1,000 meters!

He's been patiently here for six hours now! His target is a creature called the red-eyed echinone. The creature is the size of a fist, shaped somewhat like a sea cucumber, and has a blood-red tentacle that resembles an eye in the center of its body, hence its name.

Its preciousness lies in its body fluids, which are an important raw material for human beings to prepare anti-aging agents. As long as he can catch one, he can live comfortably for a year.

Of course, this creature is not so easy to obtain, because the area where it operates is guarded by many deep-sea beasts, and if you want to succeed without alarming them, the difficulty is not enough to describe with "tooth extraction"!

Carefully moving his hands and feet, he checked the equipment he had brought with him again: a high-pressure oxygen cylinder, two bottles of compressed nutrition, a powerful anesthetic gun, a sailor knife, an eco-box the size of a school bag, and a first-aid kit. That's all I have.

A companion once suggested that he bring a ray gun, but he refused—in a place like this, if you were targeted by something terrible, you wouldn't be able to save yourself with a particle cannon!

The target finally appeared, and the two sea urchin worms slowly crawled out of the seaweed and began to feed. Less than fifteen meters away from him, but he remained motionless. He is no longer a novice, and he understands that the closer he is to success, the more he must calm down, if he is too excited and shows his traces, he will be torn to pieces by those murderous creatures!

He had seen a companion because of carelessness, alarming a group of deer crystal vines, and being entangled by that group of guys, the sharp tentacles cut through the diving suit like tearing paper, sucking him alive into a dried corpse! And he was watching not far away, but he couldn't do anything!

The prey came, he was still lying on his stomach calmly, the tranquilizer gun was already in his hand, the effective range of this thing could reach forty meters, and the reason why he endured it until now was just to ensure that he could get a good shot. This thing itself is not difficult to deal with, but it is particularly alert, and it will run away at the slightest disturbance.

Slowly, one sea urchin worm has swam to the side, and the other is only a meter away. He finally adjusted the angle, aimed at the front end and pressed the activation button, and a tungsten needle less than ten millimeters silently broke through the seawater, and in a split second, it pierced its body. This was followed by a second shot, aimed at the one in the back. Soon! The two echinchins stopped moving.

Take out the eco-box and put the loot in, and the whole process takes less than ten seconds. When everything was done, he breathed a sigh of relief and found that he had broken out in a cold sweat. The rot worm not far away moved, changed its posture and continued to nap, and the other murderous creatures went their own way, and did not find this outsider!

On the sea, Frude was walking around the deck with a bottle of wine, taking a sip from time to time, he had been doing this for many years, and he loved to drink without other hobbies. It is said that he even sleeps with a wine bottle in his hand!

"Captain!" The first mate came to him from behind, "It's time to call it a day in one hour." ”

"Well, I see." After a vague reply and another mouthful, Frude said, "Old man, how many of the forty people who went down this time can come back?" ”

"How much? Hardly! Haven't you always guessed accurately? Let's take a gamble! I guess thirty-four. ”

"Cheng, if I win, you'll have to take out the income from this time and invite me to drink! Thirty-five! ”

"I knew it! Well, if I win, you'll have to treat me to the 'Glamorous Night' bar for a good time! ”

"It's decided!"

The captain poured the rest of the wine from the bottle into his stomach in one gulp, burped contentedly, and said, "You know what? The market of sea urchin worms is bullish again, and the price on the black market has reached 50,000! There are also ghost-faced deer rays, blue-blooded starfish, lava sharks...... It's all good stuff! ”

"So what? Can we get those things with our broken boat? "The first mate interrupted his yy!

"Hey! I'm just talking! Who doesn't know that good things are exchanged for their lives? The captain sighed, he knew that the first mate was right, everyone who did this business was begging for a living under the nose of death! It's troublesome enough to catch red-eyed sea urchin worms, and every time you go out to sea, there are always a few of your divers who will stay in this damn place and never come back.

The ghost-faced deer is a kind of murderous creature that grows under the sea at 500 meters and is associated with the Yama squid! Blue-blooded starfish, on the other hand, are only found in seas below two thousand meters; As for the lava shark, needless to say, it is a well-known existence on the Twilight Cloud, and ordinary caliber light cannons can't help it, and high-level abilities must be dispatched to deal with it! This is not what they can hope for now! ——

Underwater, Yun Haoyu changed positions and continued to lurk. There are already six loot in the eco box. There is still a moment before the end of the work, and no matter what, today's harvest is very satisfying, and the previous results will not exceed four at a time. There were fourteen tungsten needles in the tranquilizer gun, and he wanted to try his luck again.

"Am I being too greedy?" He sometimes asks himself the same question, but this is also human nature, no one will be disgusted with money, and it is really hard to say whether there will be such good luck next time!

How many times have you been out to sea? Seventeen or eighteen? Although there is no danger every time, he has not had a good night's sleep since he decided to come here to fight for his life!

Countless times I have dreamed of all kinds of murderous creatures taking their lives in different ways, swallowing alive is the most decent way to die, **, broken corpses, Ling Chi, or being suffocated by entanglement, slowly dissolved by strong acid, or being sucked into a dried corpse...... All kinds of horrific deaths beyond the limits of people's imagination! Waking up from a nightmare is already commonplace!

Is it worth the hard work? He thought about it too, but every time he tried to convince himself that he would just do it again and give it up! Do it again, just once...... But every time he returned, he would repeat it every week.

Perhaps, in the eyes of outsiders, this child must be crazy! No matter how much money there is, does it make sense if your life is gone?

Yes, first to live, and then to talk about something else! He also did not deny it, and more than once tried to convince himself with this not to risk any more! However, I can't let go of the attachment in my heart!

Because, life is not just about living.

In front of the word "alive", prefixes such as dignity, decency, and happiness should also be added!

Live with dignity! Live decently! Happy living!

It's almost everyone's dream, but for thousands of years, very few people have been able to meet this standard!

Live with dignity! It's easy to say, but how hard is it to do?

He is just a teenager from the lowest background, with nothing but youth, but blood, and courage!

Of course, he still has a dream, which is to live with dignity!

Humble existence, humble dreams!

For the sake of that almost impossible dream, he chose this path. Regret it? Maybe! But every time I come back from the ghost-like seabed, I silently lick my wounds in my own nest and adjust my mentality. A week later, he will continue to board the fishing boat without hesitation. Take food from the mouths of those nightmarish beasts and fight for the persistence in your heart!

With a slight lift of his hand, another tungsten needle was launched, this time the target was farther away from him, nearly six meters away! It was a little difficult to get it in his pocket, so he moved his body inch by inch and leaned over cautiously.

Fate is sneering, and the breath of death is always lingering around!

Closer, closer! It's about to be caught!

A deer crystal vine wandered over leisurely, less than a meter away from him! You can clearly see the tentacles full of miserable white small bone spurs, because of the fact that they have just finished eating, the blue-black thick vine body has turned dark purple, and there are some dark red tendons hanging on it, which keep squirming with the swaying of the vine body! A hideous and terrifying aura came to my face!

He remained unmoved, waiting quietly, his body trembling slightly.

Lu Jingteng finally floated seven or eight meters away, and the gaze of the god of death moved away from him slightly.

Reach out, grab your prey, and stuff it into an eco-box!

However, I don't know if he moved too much, or if the deer crystal vine was too sensitive, the other party turned back in a circle! And swim straight to his location!

What to do?

Run? That will only die faster! If you don't run, you won't be able to deal with this guy with the weapons at hand!

He gritted his teeth and remained motionless, praying in his heart that the other party would not find him.

The hideous tentacles slowly reached out, like an invitation from death......

Lady Luck looked at him worriedly! ——

"It's almost time, get ready to launch!" Frude commanded his men. He's talking about a missile that, when launched into the sea, emits a sound wave of a specific frequency that drives away the deadly things under the sea so that the divers can come back.

It's just that the effect of this thing is not as good as expected, and the price is not cheap! So he was only willing to use it twice at the start and end of the day! It's good to give these lads a chance to live!

On the sea, the sun of the twilight star is about to set below the horizon. Unlike Earth, the home of human beings, the sun on this planet is blue and dazzlingly blue! At this moment, on the celestial dome directly above the sun, a dazzling cluster of light appeared. Slash diagonally across the sky and fly this way!

Frude opened another bottle of wine and poured it with his neck tilted, catching a glimpse of the light out of the corner of his eye.

"What's that? Meteorite? It doesn't seem like it!" He muttered, intending to take a look through a telescope. Before he could move his steps, the speed of the light was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, it was in front of him, and he plunged into the sea thirty meters from the ship!

The strange thing is that the sea is calm as usual, and there are no waves! As if nothing had happened!

"What's going on? Is it a hallucination? "The drunkard captain stared at the sea in a daze! What he didn't know was that at this time, the sea had become a mess!

Yun Haoyu was already desperate, and the deer crystal vine slowly entangled him and began to tear his diving suit. I didn't want it to stop suddenly and swam to the side as fast as it could!

Not only it, but as if it had seen a ghost, all kinds of murderous creatures fled into the distance like crazy, including the famous Moro shark.

What is it that scares them too? He was hesitating what to do next, when he felt a darkness in front of him, and an irrepressible sleepiness came up! He was so frightened that he could imagine the consequences of sleeping in such a place, and he could imagine it on his heels! Unfortunately, the course of events did not depend on his will, and soon he lost consciousness!

Unbeknownst to him, a chaotic-colored ball of light hovered above his head. Under the irresistible pressure, the surrounding hundreds of meters of seabed has become a dead field!

One by one, the young divers surfaced and brought back more or less harvests. It seems that they are all in good shape, and they can come back safely from that kind of place, and everyone has a feeling of being reincarnated!

The first officer commanded his subordinates to count the spoils, and Frude carried the wine bottle and squinted his eyes to count the heads: "Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen...... Twenty-nine, thirty ...... "There are already thirty-two, maybe the few guys left are moving a little slower, or maybe they have already gone to see God."

This situation is commonplace, and if you want to eat this bowl of rice, you naturally have to be conscious!

After waiting for a while, two more came up, thirty-four!

"Captain, it looks like you're going to bleed this time!" The first mate said proudly.

"How can I lose?" Frude pursed his lips and looked at the time, "Wait a little longer, I don't think my instincts are wrong!" ”

The blue sun had already set, and the three moons of Twilight began to appear in the night sky, two of the larger ones were blue, and the smaller one was purple-red, which looked a little strange.

"It's time for us to go home, Captain." The first mate reminded.

"Hey! All right. Frude replied with some gloom. Could it really be that my intuition is wrong? TMD, how many years of British name, but today it is confessed ......"

Just as he was about to admit defeat, a crew member suddenly shouted: "Captain, there is another one!" ”

"What?" The drunkard captain and the first mate asked in unison!

Twenty meters from starboard, a figure slowly surfaced.

"Wowhaha...... It's that kid! Frude threw down the bottle and rushed over to pick him up.

"TND, let this damn drunkard succeed again!" Now it's the first mate's turn to be depressed.

Yun Haoyu's state didn't look bad, at least he could still stand, except that his face was a little paler. He smiled reluctantly at the onlookers, handed the eco-box to the captain, and said, "Something happened, so I came back late, which made everyone worried!" ”

"Brother Hao, how is today's harvest? Your luck is always good, and I'm sure this time is no exception......" Captain Drunkard laughed as he opened the eco-box, but when the box was fully opened, everyone present gasped.

There are twenty sea urchin worms neatly placed in the box, as well as two jade butterfly cloud shells, which can be sold for a lot of money, and can only be found in the lair of the deer crystal vine! How did this kid get it?

In the end, the first mate broke the silence and said with a smile: "Brother Hao, it seems that your luck today is really good." Wait, would you like to have a drink? ”

"As it should be!" Yun Haoyu's answer was very happy, and he now had reason to be happy. According to the previous agreement, he can get a reward of 20,000 credits for catching a sea urchin worm, and twenty is 400,000, which is already a huge amount of money for him! As for the Jade Butterfly Cloud Shell, the drunkard captain gave a price of 100,000 pieces, and his income this time was worth seven or eight times before!

The fishing boats have returned, and the lights of the harbor in the distance are bright! Yun Haoyu took a shower, changed his clothes, and stood on the deck in a trance! This time I finally came back alive, and the starry sky above my head had never been more beautiful than it was now. The night breeze blew slowly, with a familiar salty smell.

"It's good to be alive!"
