Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Seaweed Forest
Under the night sky, the white shark's eyes glowed with scarlet light, quietly staring at Qin Fei floating in the air.
Being stared at by this monster all the time, Qin Fei couldn't help but feel a little panicked in his heart.
He pulled out his Tektronix rifle and fired several shots at the stone platform below.
Relying on its physical tentacles, the mutated white shark moved nimbly on the stone platform, dodging half of the bullets fired from the Tektronix rifle.
And the Tektronix rifle in Qin Fei's hand emptied all the energy at this time....
Every 2% of the energy in the Tektronix rifle is equivalent to one bullet. And using up 100% of the energy is equivalent to firing more than fifty Tektronix bullets.
And this mutant white shark doesn't seem to have suffered much damage.
If you continue to fight like this, it will be too much of a drain on yourself....
After a short period of thought, Qin Fei took out a cryogenic compartment from his backpack. The pet stored here is the Thost giant squid that he tamed in the Ark world.
With the combat power of the Thost giant squid, this mutant white shark is naturally no match for it.
However, even if he can win, the Tost giant squid released by Qin Fei will definitely be infected by the Kara virus....
Do you want to throw the squid out or not?
Qin Fei was a little hesitant.
As he pondered, the mutant white shark on the platform suddenly let out a very strange-sounding 'hiss' sound from his mouth.
The tentacles on the mutant shark's body began to writhe, and with these tentacles, it crawled on the stone platform for two seconds before jumping into the water in an instant.
This white shark actually escaped....
Qin Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it is not known the specific reason why the white shark escaped, at least the trouble has been solved now.
After turning on the night vision mode of the Tektronix helmet, Qin Fei looked into the nearby water for a long time, and then flew back to the stone platform with a vigilant face.
Moments later, the escaped mutant white shark returned.
It emerged from the water, and with its scarlet eyes, it glanced at Qin Fei meaningfully.
After leaving Qin Fei with a 'you slowly experience it yourself' look, the white shark re-burrowed back into the water and disappeared completely.
This look....
For a moment, Qin Fei actually felt some horror in his heart.
The eyes of this mutant white shark seemed to be full of hatred. It doesn't look like an ordinary fish at all, but like a person.
There's a good chance that the monster will come back....
Qin Fei, who was restless, used a fishing line to surround the stone platform on all sides.
Finally, he tied the end of the line to his wrist.
In this way, a rope trap is laid out.
After Qin Fei fell asleep, as long as the monster got closer to the platform, it would inevitably touch the fishing line. Then Qin Fei would be woken up by the movement from the fishing line as soon as possible.
But that's still not very safe.
In order to prevent myself from sleeping too hard, I can't react. Qin Fei put on a complete set of Tek armor on his body, and with a Tektronix rifle in his arms, he lay on the stone platform in full armor.
Tektronix armor does not consume energy if it is only worn on the body and is not in a running state.
With a nervous mood, Qin Fei gradually fell asleep.
[Countdown to disintegration: 58 days]
It's dawn.
'Dididi...'
Qin Fei was woken up by the noisy signal sound around him.... The source of the sound was the diamond-shaped crystal on his wrist.
Qin Fei raised his wrist and opened the storage space in the diamond-shaped crystal.
[The tablet has received an unknown signal from a distance!] 】
After seeing this message, Qin Fei was stunned.
He took the tablet out of his backpack and pressed the power button.
[Unknown signal detected!] The source of the signal is located in the water area 385 meters to the southeast]
The functionality of this tablet is very close to that of the game. The specific direction and distance of the signal are marked in detail on the tablet.
Qin Fei speculated that this signal was most likely sent by the crew of the Healer.
To get more information about the planet and the Kara virus. Qin Fei had to set off to the location of the signal source and find the crew member.
The waters in which the white sharks are active are located in the northwest direction.
And Qin Fei's location towards the signal source was in the southeast, so he didn't need to pass through the territory of the white shark.
To the southeast, it is much safer, and the waters in this area are filled with a strange shape of seaweed.
These seaweeds are often tens of meters tall and grow very stout.
At a glance, the entire southeast water area is densely packed with this seaweed. Qin Fei was in it, as if he had entered an undersea forest.
If Qin Fei is not mistaken, the seaweed here should be edible.
He took out the dagger and cut off a small piece of seaweed with a knife.
For the sake of caution, Qin Fei did not eat it directly, but first used a scanner to inspect the surface of these seaweeds.
[Seaweed: A kelp-type species that grows in shallow sandy waters, is light-loving, iron-rich, and edible. 】
[Seaweed Block: Silicon-based plant material]
Sure enough, you can eat it!
Qin Fei was overjoyed.
He put the cut seaweed cube in his mouth.
This taste.... Some of them look like they're grazing, and they're salty.
After swallowing, there will be a desire to drink water.
Qin Fei speculated that this seaweed may contain a lot of salt. That's why people feel so thirsty after eating these seaweeds.
Since these seaweeds are just some high-fiber plants, the calories they can provide are not high.
In addition, eating these seaweeds requires a lot of water, so Qin Fei gave up his plan to use this seaweed as his main food source.
After all, freshwater is often a more precious resource than food to survive in the ocean.
Among these seaweeds, you can occasionally see a few fish with sharp tusks.
Qin Fei recognized it at a glance, these fish should be stalkers living in the seaweed area.
He travels to this planet shortly after the protagonist leaves. And at this point in time, the kara virus has already completely infected the entire ocean.
It was precisely for this reason that Qin Fei found countless terrifying and disgusting yellow-green spots on almost every stalker's body.
This is a symptom of Caravirus infection when it reaches an advanced stage.
For Qin Fei, the stalker in the seaweed forest was not very threatening.
Qin Fei's entire body was wearing Tek armor. In addition, his physique and strength far exceed the level of normal humans.
Therefore, these stalkers, who were several times smaller than the white shark, were naturally far from Qin Fei's opponents.
After stabbing several rushing stalkers with a metal spear, Qin Fei quickly arrived at the location of the signal source.
Qin Fei found an escape pod here.
The location of this escape pod is still within the confines of the seaweed forest.
Due to the damage to the airbags on both sides of the escape pod, the escape pod had already sunk to the seabed beneath the seabed.
There was a huge opening on the surface of the escape pod, from which Qin Fei burrowed into the capsule.
The equipment in this is either rusted or directly damaged, and it looks like it should be completely scrapped and unusable.
However, Qin Fei found a white glass block half the size of a palm on the ground of the escape pod.
[PAD Information Recording Module: The module records the relevant information of the crew of the Healer in distress, which can be put into a laptop computer for reading. 】
Qin Fei took out the tablet in his backpack and inserted the information module he had just found into it.
In this module, a very short text is also recorded.
September 5, 2211
'Our ship was overturned by a shark tens of meters in size, whose teeth could easily bite through titanium....
After the ship was attacked, we were forced to take an escape pod .... And I landed in this kelp forest. ’
September 10, 2211
'Although eating animal carcasses directly makes me feel disgusted.... But it has to be said that the food in this seaweed forest is very abundant. ’
September 15, 2211
'There is a strange predator with sharp fangs that lives here.
They're causing me a lot of trouble, but I'm still able to handle it.... These guys are just like me, covered in those damn spots....'
September 22, 2211
'My condition worsened and those disgusting spots on my body began to grow some strange synapses....'
September 30, 2211
'I seem to hear a voice calling out to me in the depths.... Yes, I can hear it calling....'
