Chapter 57: Salvage Operation (Part II)

Not to be outdone, Wren pushed his gear into the water, and he immediately slid down the side of the dinghy into the icy waters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

With the help of the spirits, Wren just felt that the temperature of the water was just right, so he dived to his gear and dragged his net bag and began to sink.

During the sinking, Wren took the opportunity to observe his surroundings.

In fact, due to the lack of light around, the visibility is not high, but the light column can be seen at a glance.

The behemoth within the pillar of light made Wren forget to breathe, the ocean is truly a magical place, there are even giants ten times larger than the dragon.

If it hadn't rolled its tentacles from time to time, Wren would have mistaken it for an undersea mountain.

The octopus kraken is gray-brown in color, and due to its age, it has adhered to many coral reef rocks, like a natural armor to protect the body of the sea monster.

Even without the protection of coral reef rocks, Wren thought that he would have no way to hurt such a big guy, and even if he was allowed to hit him with the iron cannon of the Dragon Eagle, he would definitely not be an opponent.

Wren struggled to recover from the shock and began to plan how to search the behemoth's side.

The sailors on the left and right sides of the front and back all reached the right depth one after another, and they let go of their hands and divided into two teams according to the plan, one pair led by Wren and the other pair led by Bambo.

Wren took three sailors and Bambo took four, and after gesturing to each other for their route, they began to row towards the pillar of light.

Since Wren did not live at sea all year round, his swimming skills were mediocre, far less fast than other sailors.

Finally swam into the pillar of light, Wren felt his body warm, and the temperature of the sea inside was actually a few degrees different from the outside.

Looking at the seabed situation in the luminous area, there are actually more than a dozen self-luminous highlightstones, and the largest one is occupied by an octopus sea monster, and at the same time, his tentacles are also wrapped around a few smaller ones.

The smallest of these hedrons is the size of the Dragon Eagle, and this pillar of light area is formed by their union.

There are many sea fish roaming around the high-glosser, but there are not many aquatic plants growing there, and dense aquatic plants will only grow after a certain distance from the high-glosser.

Wren used a gesture to tell the sailors who followed him to disperse and hide in the water and grass to find the location of the wreck.

Soon Wren found that there were no signs of a shipwreck as far as the eye could see, perhaps the shipwreck was buried in a thick layer of sea mud, or perhaps it was obscured by an octopus sea monster.

Wren noticed a sailor waving at him, Wren looked at him, and the sailor stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction for Wren to see.

Wren followed the other man's finger and looked behind the octopus sea monster, where a section of the shipwreck's mast was being exposed, and the shipwreck was finally found.

That location is still quite close to the octopus sea monster, and if there is a big movement, it will definitely alarm the octopus sea monster, and then the octopus sea monster can make their salvage team fall into a place of no return.

Wren motioned for everyone to come closer and take a closer look, but the distance here was not enough to see more details.

After swimming another two hundred meters, I finally saw the situation behind the sea monster.

There was indeed a shipwreck there, and the wreck was cut in two, one deeply buried in the mud and preserved, and the other exposed to the mud and turned into a bed of slow-growing coral reefs.

Now that I am very close to one of the tentacles of the sea monster, I can only understand how terrifying this sea monster is by looking at the tentacles of the sea monster up close.

Wren tried to ignore the huge tentacles with dense suction cups, he knew that now he and the sailors around him were no different from those sea fish swimming around in the eyes of the octopus sea monster, and as long as they didn't make excessive moves, the sea monster should not take the initiative to attack them.

With psychological comfort, Wren was about to pass past the sea monster's tentacles, but was grabbed by the sailor behind him and dragged back into the seaweed behind him.

Only then did Wren notice that a shark was swimming slowly overhead, and the shark did not notice them, leisurely swimming past the seaweed hidden by other sailors.

Seeing the shark swim away, Wren learned to be obedient this time, he did not swim out immediately, but carefully observed the surrounding environment before leaving.

There were no other sharks left, and Wren cautiously walked slowly on the bottom of the sea, seeing many strange small colorful fish swimming around him.

He didn't bother them, and with the lesson that the shark swam in and didn't know about it, Wren now watched every step he took, and only moved on to the next step after seeing that there was no danger.

It's slow, but it's always good to be cautious.

In just four or five hundred meters, it took Wren and a few sailors more than half an hour to complete.

This place has come to the bottom of the octopus sea monster, and the sea monster as tall as a mountain is still sleeping comfortably holding its own glittering large spar.

Wren didn't even dare to breathe out a lot of breath now, lest his bubbles disturb the sleeping sea monster.

But no matter how much you control it, there are still a lot of bubbles bubbling up, and some naughty little fish are running up around the bubbles.

Suddenly, the three black shadows in front of him made Wren vigilantly hide behind a piece of scorched rock next to him, and when he looked at it again, he recognized that the three black shadows were actually three sharks.

The three sharks roamed back and forth, blocking the path to the shipwreck, and if they wanted to get around, it would take at least an hour or two to get around.

Wren noticed that Bamber's men had arrived in the other direction, only a hundred meters apart, and they all had to swim under the giant feet of the octopus sea monster.

But there were three sharks blocking that area, and neither side could easily pass through that side.

However, Bambo didn't seem to be worried, he let the few people around him scatter, and soon caught a few thigh-thick sea fish.

Draw the sailor's scimitar from your waist, cut the body of the fish, causing them to bleed, and then let them go.

Before the sharks could smell blood, Bambo and his men had already taken a long hid in the seaweed.

The smell of blood on a few of the fish drew the three sharks away, and they scrambled to catch up, and while they were leaving, Wren and Bamber swam over.

One team was responsible for a section of the shipwreck, Wren was responsible for the part that was buried deep in the mud, and Bamber was responsible for searching for the part that had become a coral reef.

The shipwreck is very old, but some of the artifacts inside are still quite intact, and the original size of the whole ship should be no less than that of the ghost ship.

The sailors began to disperse to search for rooms that had not yet been submerged in the mud, searching for the wreckage but finding nothing.

Wren and a few sailors double-checked to see if they couldn't find the wooden box they were looking for, and then withdrew from the wreckage.

Bamber's team had already finished searching, and when he saw Wren come out, he shook his head at Wren.

"No, is the owner of the ghost ship lying to us?" Wren thought in his heart, but he still looked around unwillingly, if someone had come to salvage it before, it might be that the wooden box was no longer in the wreckage of the ship.

Wren thought of a rather terrifying possibility, the wooden box was taken out of the wreckage and found by the octopus sea monster, and the wooden box was left in the sea during the struggle.

If so, then the task is even more impossible, and who knows whether the wooden box was washed away by the sea or buried deep in the sea mud.

At this time, the sailor behind him warned Wren that he was in danger, and Wren saw that the three sharks that had been chasing the sea fish had returned, and they blocked the passage again.

While observing the shark hidden behind the wreckage, Wren accidentally glanced at the octopus sea monster, but was surprised to find that the box he wanted to salvage was on the huge glowing hedron under the sea monster's seat.

Since the box doesn't emit light, it's easy to see it's there.

The box was so close that it was a bit of a hassle to get it. Mainly those three sharks,

The wreckage is blocked by a tall sepost, and it is not easy to catch a few big fish to attract sharks.

And no one thought that these three sharks would go and return, and now even if they don't care about the wooden box, if they want to leave there, they have to find a way to deal with the trouble of the three sharks.

Suddenly, a shark seemed to notice the movement of the shipwreck and swam swaggering.

The shark was heading for Bamber's men, and one of Bambo's sailors suddenly swam out of hiding and swam desperately to the surface.

Wren noticed a reddish tinge behind the sailor, probably because he had injured himself while exploring.

Everyone tried to save the sailor, but there was nothing they could do, because the shark had swam behind the sailor at great speed and bit it.

The waters around the shark turned scarlet, and the strong smell of blood attracted the other two sharks to come and share the food.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone began to return to the same path blocked by the sharks, while Wren bypassed the mass of scarlet alone and swam directly to the wooden box on the glowing hedron.

Wren swam close to the wooden box and saw that the wooden box was actually very new, and he couldn't tell that it had been soaked in this sea bed for a long time.

Picking up the wooden box carefully, Wren felt the urge to flee immediately, but he still took a cautious look at the octopus sea monster.

Standing under this behemoth like an ant, he should not have noticed his existence.

Wren turned his head again to look at the corpse of the sailor who had been eaten by the sharks, and the three sharks were still fighting and tearing around, with no intention of leaving.

Holding back the grief in his heart, Wren walked away from the giant glowing hedrons.

Swimming past the place where the three sharks had swam back and forth before, Wren secretly sighed in his heart, only to find that the sailors waved nervously from him.

Wren knew what danger was behind him, so he stopped swimming and turned his head to look back, and found that the huge octopus sea monster had actually moved.

Its countless huge tentacles began to wave around, and the three sharks that were still grabbing the sailor's corpse were swept away, and one was stunned in an instant.

The remaining two hurriedly discarded the food and began to dodge the sea monster's tentacles far away, not wanting to be swept up by the tentacles halfway, and quickly dragged them to their mouths and threw them in.

Wren no longer looked at the awakened octopus sea monster, and hurriedly continued to swim on his own, taking advantage of the fact that the octopus sea monster did not find them, and wanted to leave here quickly.

But the more afraid he was, the more he came, the huge octopus giant hand easily rolled up on Wren, and Wren did not forget to throw away the wooden box the moment he was dragged away.

Before he could react otherwise, Wren saw a large, jagged hole sucking in seawater.

The powerful suction force caused Wren to be sucked into the big hole in an instant, and when he passed over the thick sawtooth, Wren instinctively grabbed a fang.

After a painful burst of currents, the hole began to move.

Wren saw that this was a big mouth preparing to chew, so he hurriedly pulled his body to the fangs, and used all his strength to quickly swim out of the big hole with his feet on the fangs.

When the big hole was closed, the pressure of the water generated pushed Wren again, making him swim out twenty or thirty meters at once.

Breaking away from the behemoth's mouth, Wren didn't have time to consider his own safety, so he first searched for the whereabouts of the wooden box.
