Chapter 64 One Wave Subsides, Another Rises

"Is that so?" Fang Senyan sneered, "If I say it's possible, then it definitely is!"

While this juvenile ichthyosaur was being electrocuted into a frenzy of spasms and convulsions in the seawater, the submarine seized the opportunity to start its engines and escape at full speed. Two columns of churning white water spewed out from the submarine's rear discharge ports, propelling it forward at high speed. The first mate, watching the speed on the instrument panel steadily increase, sighed with a bitter expression:

"The underwater speed is only about fifteen knots at most, it won't go any higher. That beast can accelerate to over twenty knots in a short time!"

Fang Senyan said coldly:

"Shut up and keep your eyes open."

Then, to the first mate's astonishment, the speed on the instrument panel quickly exceeded the fifteen-knot mark and was rapidly climbing to even higher numbers! Fang Senyan suddenly asked:

"What's the submarine's maximum speed on the surface?"

The first mate swallowed hard:

"Twenty knots..."

Fang Senyan immediately said:

"Prepare to surface, we can't worry about so much now. If we can reach twenty-five knots on the surface, then shaking that guy off won't be a problem. It wants to compete with us in endurance? That's a big mistake!"

Fang Senyan's sudden entry and ruthless killing to establish his authority, forcing these crew members into submission, undoubtedly only resulted in superficial compliance. Even if he wanted to do something, it would inevitably be met with lip service and defiance.

But seeing his orders being issued one after another, actually leading everyone out of danger, or at least seeing a glimmer of hope, he had basically established his own prestige. When he now gave the order to prepare to surface, the people in the control room immediately rushed over, actively operating the machinery to surface, after all, everyone was now in the same boat.

Of course, the people Fang Senyan used to establish his authority were their colleagues and friends. To say that they would immediately prostrate themselves and worship him as a boss was completely wishful thinking. However, everyone was in the same boat now, and even if someone had dissenting opinions, those opinions could only be kept to themselves, at most harboring the thought of "a good man doesn't suffer immediate losses" and settling the score later. But were Fang Senyan and the others afraid of settling the score later?

Logically speaking, surfacing while simultaneously discharging water was a major violation of regulations and extremely damaging to the ship, similar to starting a car in third gear. However, they couldn't possibly stop to discharge water at this time, could they? Ignoring the mechanical damage, they had to surface first.

During the ascent, the submarine was not disturbed in any way. However, after everyone reached the deck, they could see that the submarine's hull had many deep dents, which were shocking to see. If this submarine had not been converted from military use to civilian use, it would have probably already cracked and sunk.

After surfacing, the submarine accelerated again to 25 knots. For the ichthyosaur's massive size, its burst speed might exceed this number in the short term, but if it continued, it would inevitably be difficult to sustain. A creature's physical reserves could not last as long as a machine's.

It was dusk, and under Fang Senyan's command, the submarine continued to sail rapidly on the sea. The water surface under the setting sun was painted with a layer of shimmering golden light, and flying fish occasionally leaped out of the water.

These flying fish are rare creatures in the real world, only found in places with very little pollution. They can glide smoothly through the air for nearly one or two hundred meters with their wide fins. Of course, the ones that fly the farthest have the priority of mating with the females. The upper jaw of the flying fish is quite sharp, but fortunately, the flying speed is not fast, so even in the real world, there are very few reports of people being injured by them.

Fang Senyan saw a flying fish, waved his hand, and caught it. He very skillfully gutted it and sliced it into paper-thin sashimi, which he chewed on. He had eaten it once in the real world, and the taste was excellent. Now, tasting this original, high-quality delicacy again, he felt that the delicate fish meat seemed to melt on the tip of his tongue, with the faint salty taste of the sea. It was truly a pure natural seasoning, giving people a feeling of relaxation and happiness.

At this time, the ichthyosaur behind them probably couldn't catch up. A group of people who had escaped death came up on deck to breathe the fresh air. Seeing Fang Senyan eating with relish, they followed suit and soon encountered another group of flying fish.

The first mate caught one and gutted it, only to find a large mass of fish eggs in its belly. The meat on its body had naturally decreased, and he didn't feel anything unusual. But witnessing this scene, Fang Senyan suddenly felt that something was wrong. He thought back and forth, and suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Be careful! A very powerful monster is approaching!"

The black guys, hearing Fang Senyan's shout, immediately became nervous:

"Where?"

Fang Senyan said with a solemn expression:

"Only male flying fish like to fly when they are courting. Why are the females also flying? The only explanation is that they feel a great threat approaching, so they are hurriedly running away!"

After speaking, Fang Senyan immediately shouted to the people on the deck:

"Turn immediately and sail at full speed in the direction the flying fish were gliding!"

Just then, everyone felt the submarine start to shake slightly again. The stench in the seawater seemed to be even stronger, and in the sea breeze, it seemed to bring the deep, thick, and turbid breathing of a giant beast from afar.

Suddenly! On the sea surface five or six hundred meters away, a thin, turbid white water column shot up, staying together without dispersing, straight up to a very high place, and then scattered into large patches of mist like anger.

Immediately afterward, the seawater surged violently again, and the spine of a terrifying giant beast appeared on the surface. The scales on its skin showed changing shades of light purple and light blue.

Like a crocodile, it hid most of its body in the water, but a pair of huge eyes stared over with a cold and greedy meaning.

Those were the eyes of a predator!

From the part that had already been exposed on the surface of the sea, it could be seen that this guy was only bigger than the ichthyosaur they had encountered earlier!

The first mate was already shivering all over:

"God, this, this is a shark-dragon. We usually don't encounter these monsters on this route. They usually go to the deep sea to hunt. Why are we encountering these giant monsters one after another today?"

Fang Senyan said in a deep voice:

"Accelerate and shake it off!"

The first mate said with a weeping face:

"I'm afraid it's difficult, sir, because the shark-dragon is much stronger than the ichthyosaur. Its instantaneous sprint speed can reach eighty knots, and it can maintain that for nearly half an hour! Only warships are not afraid of its attacks!"

"Then, there is only one way." This voice was Zi's. Her expression was a bit haggard, but the imposing manner on her body was even sharper! Like a knife that had just killed someone, its sharpness was fully revealed!

"If we really can't avoid it, then kill it!"

Fang Senyan said lightly:

"Yes, this guy should only be able to be dealt with by Awakeners. The difference between Awakeners and Colonists doesn't seem to be that big now. Colonists are like supermen who have great power but don't know how to use it, while Awakeners have gradually begun to understand and maximize this power. And Zi, you should already be at the top of the Colonist level, so I believe the four of us can handle this guy... But, we haven't even set foot on the land of Dinosaur Island yet! If we use your last trump card now, what will we do if we encounter unexpected situations in the future?"

Zi said coldly:

"Then what do you say we should do? Even this shark-dragon can be delayed with speed, but if we sail like this on the sea, it won't be long before we all die under the crazy attacks of pterosaurs!"

Fang Senyan took a deep breath, but suddenly turned to the first mate next to him:

"Slow down, stop the boat!"

The first mate opened his mouth in surprise, but the black guys' gun barrels immediately aimed over, and he could only raise his hands with a bitter face and slip into the cabin. Before the submarine had even stopped, Fang Senyan had already stepped down into the seawater step by step along the舷梯 with a solemn expression, and the shark-dragon was charging over at a speed that seemed slow but was actually very fast!

At this moment, Fang Senyan pulled out Ambition and immersed it in the water.

Suddenly, there was an indescribable霸气 in the天地海洋! The seawater in front of Fang Senyan suddenly wriggled strangely. At least several hundred square meters of seawater wriggled like a gel, and then formed a huge octopus shape, which was extremely lifelike. The illusion of the octopus stretched its limbs freely in the seawater, and its thick tentacles swayed with the waves.

When Zi saw the illusion formed by the seawater, she didn't know why, but a substantial fear suddenly arose in her heart, instantly damaging her mind!

"Could this be the pressure of a ninth-order creature in the legend?" Zi murmured.

At this time, the shark-dragon also rapidly slowed down its swimming speed. It also felt the tremendous pressure from the illusion of Paul the Octopus, although it had never seen such a powerful guy. The two sides were deadlocked for several minutes, and the shark-dragon still turned and left. It not only used its fins to swim, but also skillfully used the muscles of its body cavity to constantly squeeze seawater backward, swimming away at an astonishing speed.

Fang Senyan then calmly climbed back onto the submarine. Zi was about to question him why he didn't take out this great weapon earlier, but then she noticed that Fang Senyan's forehead was covered with bright droplets, she didn't know if it was sweat or water, but Fang Senyan also looked very tired. He already knew what Zi was going to say, and said with a wry smile:

"This is the aura left by Paul the Sea Monster. It was of course invincible in the Caribbean Sea world, but if I take it out in this world, there will often be two extremes. The first is to scare them away, but in this world, it is more likely to arouse the ferocity of these guys and make them attack relentlessly!"

After writing this chapter, I feel much better. There will be three updates tomorrow, and I will try to resume normal time.

I sincerely apologize to everyone for the inconvenience caused by the writer's block these days.
