Chapter 149: Temporary Escape

Updated: 2012-09-27

The strange fish bites, and the whole person lies on the riverbed Zero, and immediately uses his hands and feet to move three meters sideways like a sea spider, so that the sea dragon fish bites in the air, and only a piece of silt is dug out.

The strange fish shook its head and spat out the mud from its mouth. Zero bit the glow stick in his mouth, using the saber as the main support point, and at the same time, using the second-order liliang strengthened ability, let the five fingers of the other hand pierce into the riverbed like steel nails to play a supporting role.

When the Arowana turned his head towards him, Zero alternated his hands and propped his feet on the riverbed to help, and the whole person quickly crawled away in the opposite direction of the Arowana. The water is turbulent, and although Zero has minimized friction surfaces, it is not easy to climb up like this.

What gave him a headache was that the Arowana didn't seem ready to let him go, the guy who accidentally invaded their domain. So the Arowana, which was acting as a protector, turned around and plunged into the ground with its five pairs of long legs, and chased after Zero.

Fortunately, the Arowana's body is too large, which means that it has to withstand more water pressure than Zero, which makes Arowana much less fast than Zero. But it has a huge span of pace, which somewhat equalizes the speed disadvantage, and is only slightly slower than zero.

From time to time, the monster fish attacks Zero with its large mouth, or its asymmetrical chelicerae. Although Zero didn't look back, through the change of the current behind him, he was always able to presciently avoid the attack of the sea dragonfish. It's just that the repeated attacks have been fruitless, but this sea dragon fish is quite annoyed.

In this way, he escaped and chased, and Zero took the strange fish to the side of the mountain wall of the big crack. Here, the flow of water becomes quite chaotic, and Zero can clearly feel several undercurrents passing by him. There are many reasons for undercurrents, but in rivers, it is mostly caused by gaps in the riverbed or river wall, and because the injection of air affects the direction of the water flow.

Now when I reach the mountain wall, I feel the existence of an undercurrent, which means that there are probably many pores in the mountain wall of this big fissure, which is a good place to temporarily avoid the sea dragonfish. Thinking so, Zero moved closer to the mountain wall more actively.

At this time, the Arowana also came up, because of its proximity to the mountain wall, the pressure surface of the Arowana was far less than in the center of the water, which made the speed of the strange fish increase suddenly. Several times the zero danger was bitten by it, but the helpless person was in the water, and the M500 revolver or Colt on Zero's body was useless, but the saber in his hand was more practical.

It's just that the saber plays the role of fixing the body, and it is impossible to use it, and I don't want to use it against the sea dragonfish. What's more, Zero doesn't believe that a small saber can pose any threat to the sea dragonfish.

The water behind him was surging, but it was the sea dragon fish that opened its mouth to bite again. This time the monster fish came with ferocity, and most of Zero's legs were within its attack range. Zero had to shrink his legs suddenly, and the whole person almost arched into a ball, so that the big mouth of the sea dragon fish grazed the soles of his feet.

The monster fish's mouth closed, and Zero took the opportunity to struggle with his legs and stomp heavily on the head of the sea dragonfish.

The second-order liliang erupted, and the sea dragon fish, which was as big as a buffalo, also stepped on Zero's leg and raised its body slightly. Zero, on the other hand, scurried forward like a swordfish. Unexpectedly, an undercurrent hit the horizontal, and the collision caused Zero to lose his balance. Fortunately, he immediately plunged his saber into the riverbed, so that the rapids behind him did not rush farther away.

By the glow of the glow sticks, Zero saw an irregular hole in the mountain wall. Air was poured through the hole, creating the same strong undercurrent. Zero Daxi immediately swam into the cave entrance. The water flow in the cave is relatively smooth, but there are undercurrents surging from time to time, but if you are careful, you will not be washed out of the hole. After all, compared to the rapids outside the cave, this undercurrent can still be offset by zero liliang.

Unexpectedly, the good times didn't last long, and the sea arowana actually followed in, and there was a great feeling of dying.

Zero sighed unlucky, after being soaked in water for so long, the penetrating wound caused by the Parkland killer had begun to worsen. Zero began to feel numb on the right side of his body, and if he couldn't get out of the water and treat the wound in a short period of time, even if Zero was killed, he would have a hidden wound that would not heal in the future.

And the less and less air in the lobes of the lungs is also a troublesome problem, from the time he entered the water to the present, he has hardly changed his breath, and if he can't find an outlet again, he is afraid that he will drown alive.

Behind him, the water was loud, and the sea arowana was chasing him.

Leaving the underground water basin with dense rapids, the current in this space did not cause much disturbance to the Arowana. The strange fish waved its long pointed feet and strode like flying, little by little, approaching zero. At zero speed, there is no way to shake off this strange fish. He gritted his teeth, and suddenly retreated, and shrank into the belly of the strange fish.

The Arowana didn't expect Zero to do this, and in its not too short life, it hadn't encountered a single deadly prey that had also burrowed under it. The mutant creature with little intelligence itself had no idea, and Zero, who had shrunk under it, stabbed his saber into one of its pointy joints.

The saber struck out laterally, instantly severing the pitiful few muscle fibers and nerves in the joint.

Under the pain, the monster violently thrusted its feet and limbs, stirring up the floating soil in the cave, and the already unclear water space became even more turbid.

Zero took the opportunity to swim away, and after pulling a distance of about five meters, the strange fish chased after him again. But this time, the Arowana was injured in one foot, unable to move as quickly as before, and was gradually distanced by Zero.

The further upstream the hole goes, the space shrinks, until the stone walls on both sides of the zuihou shrink to allow only one person to pass through. The Arowana chased after him, but crashed into it when Zero swam out of the gap.

There was an immediate tremor in the water, and many stone chips were knocked off by the strange fish, but the mutant beast let half of its head get stuck in the exit.

Zero looked back, and the strange fish was shaking its head desperately. It was only after a while that it broke free. The two tentacles on its head kept pointing in the direction of zero, but the sea dragon fish, which knew that it could not pass, could only turn around and leave after letting out a dull cry.

Relieved, Zero continued upstream, and after swimming less than three meters, he broke through the water, but he breathed air, although it was not fresh and had a musty smell.

Zero lifted the glow stick and looked around, revealing that he was in a puddle. There is a sloping ground in front of it, and the deeper part is hidden in the darkness, but it is obvious that this cave is not small.

He hurriedly swam over, crawled out of the water with his hands and feet, and lay down on the damp ground at the water's edge, gasping for breath.
