Chapter 191: Hunting the mutant octopus
Jiang Sheng's refusal was ruthlessly ignored by the two of them, and the rubber boat floated on the slightly microwave sea, rocking gently.
It has been a long time since the last incident, and the base has strengthened its precautions, and so far no trace of the so-called mutated animals has been found.
Jiang Sheng didn't want to take these two great gods with him, after all, once they got together, sparks would fly, and the atmosphere was weird and unpresentable.
The rubber boat drifts with the current, and the oars lap against the water, bringing up a few drops of transparent water from time to time.
The salty smell of the sea water can't help but flutter in the face, and if you put your hand in the water, you can even touch a few fish that are leisurely lounging.
Jiang Sheng took out a few grains of fish food from the store from the space, and usually fed them to the fish in the fish pond, but this time it can be regarded as a fun.
The fish food floated on the surface of the sea, and disappeared before it could react, and the water around the rubber boat splashed bigger and bigger, but there was no trace of the mutant animals.
His gaze shifted from the sea to Su Shen, but the other party shook his head a little helplessly.
He had already spread his mental power to investigate, but he still couldn't feel anything, at most he could detect the fish around the rubber boat.
Cheng Xiao squatted at the stern of the boat and looked at the sea level in the distance, the metal necklace around his neck made him feel more wanton and free, wearing a pair of harem pants specially matched by Jiang Sheng for him, and his appearance could be said to have soared to the sky.
He didn't feel anything wrong, but Jiang Sheng didn't want to return in vain, so the three of them started eating breakfast directly on the sea.
Cheng Xiao was not half interested in human food, and he took out a few high-level crystal nuclei from his pocket, chewing them crunchy like eating jelly beans.
Jiang Sheng and Su Shen were holding a cup of soy milk and drinking it in small sips, holding a meat bun in their hands, as if it had just been baked, and it was still steaming.
The rubber boat floated farther away from the island, and Jiang Sheng didn't bother to care about it, after all, the wind was not too strong today, and at the current speed of the rubber boat, it would take a long time to disappear around the base.
She swallowed the bun in her mouth, threw the plastic bag into the space, pulled out a camera and started taking pictures.
The warm glow of the morning glow shone freely on the surface of the sea, and the white clouds in the distance were also stained with brilliant colors.
The post-apocalyptic sky became even bluer, forming a line with the sea in the distance, dotted with a few fluffy white clouds.
The sound of clicking pictures was endless, and Jiang Sheng's hair tied into a high ponytail was gently raised by the sea breeze, scratching Su Shen's face.
"There's movement!"
Su Shen noticed that a huge thing was swimming towards the rubber boat at a high speed, and the breath was getting stronger and stronger, but in a few seconds, he came to the rubber boat in an instant.
Cheng Xiao took off the long sleeves of his upper body casually, threw them into Jiang Sheng's arms, and jumped into the sea quickly.
As a zombie, he didn't need to breathe, and through the faint blue water, he saw a huge octopus.
The sea slightly restricted his movements, but he didn't care, and quickly swam towards the octopus, its fangs and sharp claws instantly appearing, and quickly attacking the octopus with his form.
The octopus naturally does not rest on its laurels, its tentacles instantly swell, and dense and sharp barbs arch on it, which can easily scrape off a layer of flesh on a human body.
The octopus is constantly looking for Cheng Xiao's figure, but the bottom of the sea is its world, Cheng Xiao's movements are always not as sharp as those on the shore, and he was really attacked by it a few times, and he was almost pierced by a tentacle.
Jiang Sheng couldn't see the situation at the bottom of the sea, but she also knew that she couldn't act rashly, in case she accidentally injured Cheng Xiao by activating the ability casually, it would be the real gain outweighed the loss.
The sea gradually became choppy, and the rubber boat was weakly swayed by the waves, and if Jiang Sheng hadn't grabbed the handle, he would have been shaken down a long time ago.
thought that this mutant animal was not a difficult thing, but Cheng Xiao never came out of the sea, which really made her heart tighten.
What if Cheng Xiao is really defeated by this mutant animal who doesn't know the whole picture?
Jiang Sheng was anxious in his heart, and kept calling towards the sea, asking Cheng Xiao to come out quickly.
But the sea was still turbulent, and the surrounding fish had long since dispersed, and the sea was desolate, and there was no trace of life.
The uneasiness in Jiang Sheng's heart became bigger and bigger, she hurriedly pulled Su Shen's sleeve and asked him to use his mental power to protect Cheng Xiao, while she submerged her palm in the seawater, and a few traces of thunder and lightning leaked from her fingertips, she planned to kill this mutant animal directly with one blow.
"No, Cheng Xiao is up."
Su Shen took her hand out of the seawater, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped her cool fingertips, and used the temperature of her palm to warm her hands.
Sure enough, the churning sea gradually calmed down, and a few ripples swam towards the rubber boat, Cheng Xiao grabbed the rope and jumped up easily.
His recovery ability and defense were good, and he couldn't find a single wound on his body, so Jiang Sheng relieved himself and took out a bath towel from the space and handed it to Cheng Xiao.
"Why did it take so long?"
Jiang Sheng looked at his wet hair, and somewhat helplessly took out a dry hair hat and helped Cheng Xiao put it on his head.
"It's not easy for me to move in the sea, but the big octopus is fast and has a lot of tentacles, so the fight is a little more intense.
This is its crystal nucleus, it looks like it is very energetic, you put it away. ”
Cheng Xiao casually handed the crystal nucleus to Jiang Sheng, and Su Shen used his spiritual power as an oar, and slowly rowed towards the base with the rubber boat.
Jiang Sheng looked at the crystal nucleus, but he didn't accept it: "You killed it, the crystal nucleus is still for you, I don't lack it." ”
As a high-level zombie, Cheng Xiao also needs a lot of crystal nuclei to replenish energy on weekdays, so it is better for Cheng Xiao to hold this energetic crystal nucleus by himself.
Cheng Xiao shook his head: "No." ”
The two were sisters and brothers, and Jiang Sheng saw that he refused again and directly included the crystal nucleus in the space.
Don't be a fool if you have benefits.
This mutant octopus is mainly because it is too fast, and it fled directly after committing the crime, and it was impossible to catch its breath in time.
Thinking about it, it was hiding in other sea areas with its own speed, after all, Su Shen's spiritual power detection also had a range, which made it escape.
However, the sea is ever-changing, and the creatures are also diverse, and no one knows how many mutated animals are hidden in it, which makes Jiang Sheng feel very uneasy.
Although the food at the base is still mainly farmed, many people go out to hunt zombies every day.
After all, the Nucleus is a good thing, it can absorb the energy inside to increase abilities, and it can also be used as currency for material exchange.
So although food is hard to find, it's not like no one goes out.
The island where the new base is located is also some distance from the shore, and the pontoon bridge can only be walked on two legs, and if there are indeed mutant animals setting up an ambush there, the base will inevitably suffer a heavy damage.
