The players on the Nautilus were obviously hesitant. This vortex doesn't seem to be very fast, and they might rush over with just one effort. However, if one is not easy to do, it may be a bit dangerous. It is naturally much safer to go around from the side, and it will inevitably delay some speed.

Safety or leading, this is a question.

The vortex is getting closer and closer, and the Nautilus needs to make a choice immediately. Soon, the people behind will know what their choice is, and they choose to rush over!

I have to say that this choice is very risky, because no one knows what is inside the vortex. It is either a reef or a monster. Of course, it may be just a small wave of undercurrents. In any case, it takes a lot of courage to rush over the vortex directly. It is conceivable how persistent the players on the Nautilus are to the leading advantage.

Facing the vortex in front, the Nautilus rushed over without hesitation! It can be seen that the players on the dragon boat have tried their best now. Using mana to drive the dragon boat can naturally accelerate in an instant, but the consumption of mana will double. And if the rhythm of the players cannot be consistent, it may have a counter-effect. However, it can be seen that the people on the Nautilus are quite prepared and may have been trained for a long time. The instant acceleration makes the Nautilus rush directly towards the vortex like a sharp arrow off the string!

Of course, it is not the center of the vortex. The center of the vortex has a great suction force. If you rush over there, you may be wasted much more time than bypassing. The Nautilus chose to rush over from the side to minimize the impact of the vortex!

The Nautilus rushed forward, but the few dragon boats behind him hesitated. Can you follow him? Can your dragon boat rush through the vortex? Can your people exert force instantly like the Nautilus?

In the end, several dragon boats adjusted their direction slightly and prepared to bypass the vortex. After all, safety is the first. Anyway, the Nautilus is the first, but it only keeps the first. But if there is a problem with it, it is not a problem whether it can surpass the Nautilus...

The Nautilus rushed towards the vortex without hesitation. The body of the slender dragon boat was immediately affected by the vortex and began to shake. It seems that if a person is not well controlled, it is very likely to be swept into the vortex. If this slender dragon boat is swept into the vortex, the biggest possibility is to plunge head-in... Not to mention rushing over, whether it can continue the competition will be a question.

However, players who control the Nautilus are obviously very experienced. The operation is also very sharp. They keep the direction of the Nautilus roughly unchanged while swinging, and rubbing past the edge of the vortex. Although the speed has slowed down due to the vortex, their leading momentum has not changed!

The Nautilus successfully passed through the vortex! Although it was far away from the center of the vortex, it could be considered as passing through the vortex. The occurrence of this incident proves that although the vortex is an obstacle to blocking the player, it may not necessarily have to sacrifice speed to go around!

The dragon boats behind saw the Nautilus and seemed to have passed through the vortex without much effort, and seemed to regret their orbiting actions. In their minds, the reason why the Nautilus is faster than its dragon boat is because the Nautilus is better in shape. If it were the same, it would not be left too much!

Now because they are all circling and the Nautilus is heading straight, the distance between the two sides has once again been widened. Looking at the Nautilus being getting farther and farther away, the players on the dragon boats behind are very anxious.

Lin Musen and the others also went around honestly. In fact, when they arrived in front of the vortex, the Nautilus had already passed through the vortex. They could learn the Nautilus and pass through the center of the vortex. However, Lin Musen stopped others and did not allow them to pass through the vortex directly.

"We must be low-key, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger! We can't make a name for ourselves so early, otherwise we will become other people's targets. And now, the most obvious target is to let the Nautilus do it!" Lin Musen said this, with a chilling smile on his face...

In short, this vortex has passed. At least the first five dragon boats passed through this vortex in their own way. The ranking of these five dragon boats has not changed much... but the leading trend of the Nautilus has been slightly larger. As for how the dragon boats behind came... who cares about it?

Not long after, there were shouting and scolding from players who were swept into the vortex...

Of course, the players behind will not have any impact on the players ahead, unless they are about to catch up with the ones ahead. However, according to the current situation, the seven or eight dragon boats in front are not the ones behind the players who are behind. Unless they encounter some accident... It is normal for an accident to occur in this game.

Now the dragon boat in front is still moving forward desperately. The leader wants to open the gap, while the back wants to catch up. However, it is quite difficult for the two. After all, the performance of the dragon boat is similar. Instead of hoping that their team members will explode, it is better to expect the other party to make mistakes.

Lin Musen and others now occupy the fifth place and seem very calm. The top five can participate in the finals. To be the first, they only get more money or something. When they reveal their strength at this time, they are easy to be targeted and the gain is not worth the effort. However, they will not underestimate others too much. If they are squeezed out of the top five in the end, they will not even cry.

The best situation is that the several dragon boats in front of them have withdrawn from the competition due to accidental withdrawal or are surpassed by the people behind them... Although this possibility is very small, it is not without it at all. After all, the competition has just begun... The obstacles have only encountered a whirlpool, and there are many other obstacles that have not appeared. What's more, there are those floating on the water that have never appeared. The results of the competition are still confusing now!

Sure enough, not long after, the second obstacle appeared again.

On the water surface of the Yangtze River, there were comfortable wood-like things. These woods were horizontally on the water surface, each of which was as thick as a dragon boat. The wood was very rough, and the mottled bark seemed to prove that these woods were all trees falling from both sides of the river. But strangely, the water flow of the Yangtze River was quite turbulent, but these woods were horizontally in the water and would hardly move with the flow!

This strange scene naturally attracted the attention of the dragon boat operators in front of them. It was strange that the wood placed horizontally in the Yangtze River appeared in the Yangtze River. It was even more strange that it was not washed away by the water. If the water flow was smooth, it could be said that it was blocked by the reefs and even water plants below. But now the water flow is so turbulent, why do they move? Even if something entangles the wood, they shouldn't be placed horizontally! Could it be that there is a rope tied down below to fix them firmly?

Of course, there will be another explanation for this situation...

"Crocodile!" Someone was already screaming on the boat in front.

Yes, there is another possibility, that these things are not wood at all! What lies across the river are other things!

The one that is most similar to wood is naturally the crocodile. Although Lin Musen has heard that crocodiles seem to only like to live in rivers with gentle water flow, this is a fairy tale game! There are even hippos in the Yangtze River, so what's strange about having crocodiles? What's more, the Yangtze River crocodile is a specialty of the Yangtze River!

Of course, these crocodiles are naturally not rare animals like Yangtze crocodile, but ferocious monsters!

The Nautilus in the front was already quite close to those suspected of wood, and the crocodiles naturally couldn't help but move. A crocodile suddenly grew its mouth, turned around, and rushed towards the Nautilus!

The crocodile is fierce, and the identification technique also shows that this thing is an elite boss. If it is normal, no player on a dragon boat will take an elite boss seriously. However, this is during the dragon boat racing process. All players cannot use any skill spells!

If you bite the dragon boat by this big mouth, it will definitely greatly reduce the durability of the dragon boat! Not to mention the impact on speed and flexibility, it is not impossible for the dragon boat to leak and sink directly if you bite a few more times!

Fortunately, maybe it was because of the turbulent water flow, or maybe it was because the crocodiles were too large, but in short, the crocodiles were not very agile in their movement speed. The crocodile rushed towards the Nautilus directly, but it seemed that it would take a while before they could get in touch with the Nautilus!

Such a long time is enough for the Nautilus to change direction and avoid the crocodile.

That being said, but now there are not one or two crocodiles across the river, but dozens of them! These crocodiles are arranged unevenly on the river surface, and there are no dragon boats that can pass through them directly without being affected by crocodiles!

"It's too cruel! Even if there are obstacles, these crocodiles obviously want to wipe out the dragon boat!" The romantic and dashing breathed in the air. The performance of the others was similar. Players who could not fight could not avoid panic when facing so many high-intensity monsters... They knew the strength of these little bosses very well and could not destroy the other party. How could they pass through so many crocodiles?

Lin Musen was quite calm. Speaking of which, his method of dealing with bosses was somewhat different from other players. He was not mainly fighting head-on attacks, but mostly fighting. How to avoid the entanglement of those monsters is the most experienced. Although he is not controlling the Qingyun Iron-winged Roc now, but the Dragon Boat Amber Stone, there are some commonalities. It is not too difficult for him to pass the blocking of these crocodiles.

But he didn't know if there would be any changes. Therefore, the dragon boats in front were the best experimental subjects!

The Nautilus was a little panicked when facing the sudden attack of the crocodile. But soon, they found that the crocodile was moving quite slowly. This gave them plenty of time to adjust their direction and avoid the crocodile's attack. Unfortunately, although the crocodile was moving slowly, its thinking did not slow down. Seeing the Nautilus shifting direction, the crocodile's direction also changed!

After all, the Nautilus is a dragon boat. It is not a player who steps on a flying sword. If he changes direction, he changes direction and turns direction. The effect of the water flow is quite large, otherwise a vortex would not have trapped countless people. Although the Nautilus changes direction urgently, it is still under the threat of a crocodile. If you are not careful, you may be bitten by a crocodile!

Such a big crocodile, even if the dragon boat is not bad, it will probably leak? The materials used by the Nautilus to make dragon boats are obviously wood, but they cannot withstand the biting of those crocodiles! The biting power of the crocodile is among the best in the animal world...

The Nautilus could only keep changing directions, trying to make the crocodile unable to catch up with their pace of changing directions. In fact, this is true. After the crocodile turned back and forth twice, it was getting farther and farther away from the Nautilus. However, the crocodile was doing good. Since it could not catch up with the Nautilus, it placed its target on several dragon boats behind...

"These crocodiles are so smart? I'm really a little trouble now." Lin Musen was a little surprised to see the crocodile's performance. If all the crocodiles were so smart, it would not be an easy thing to cross the defense lines arranged by so many crocodiles...

"It's unreasonable. The competition has just begun, and the difficulty is so high. Do you want players to pass the competition? According to me, it would be nice to have one-third of these crocodiles pass!" Liu Xu Piaopiao was also a little confused. If we look at this density, players' dragon boats will inevitably enter the attack range of crocodiles. And how many of these dragon boats can withstand the attack of crocodiles or avoid those crocodiles?

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. There should be something else..." Lin Musen pondered while watching the Nautilus avoiding the crocodile.

Suddenly, the crocodiles that were crossing the water surface suddenly started to move at the same time. Of course, these crocodiles were moving very slowly, and they were just making the water surface mess. For the time being, the players' dragon boats could not receive any threats.

However, this is not the point. The point is that when the crocodiles move away and leave their positions, spots of various colors appear where they have stayed!

The spots have different colors and shapes. The spots just float on the water surface. They slowly rise and fall with the fluctuations of the water surface, but they do not move to other places at all.

"Are those... various states?" Lin Musen narrowed his eyes. The event announcement said that during the dragon boat racing, various increase and decrease states will appear on the water surface. These states can help players pass through some difficult places, expand their advantages and reduce their distance with other players. Of course, there are also some negative states, but after winning, it may not be a bad thing. It depends on how the players react and choose.

The spots on the water surface have no name, but some problems can be seen from the image. There is a blue arrow that points directly in front of it, which is mostly accelerated; there is also a red weight that looks extremely steady, mostly increasing the weight of the dragon boat. The others have a circle, a ball, and even the spots look like fish...

I don't know what the specific effect of these spots is, but now it seems that there is less blue and more red. From the perspective of shape, most of the blue ones are gain effects, acceleration, increase flexibility, and strengthen defense... But these also depend on how to use them, and it is not safe to use them. For example, if the acceleration effect is flat in the front, it will naturally be very powerful when used. But like now, there are crocodiles in front, and you accelerate and rush into the pile of crocodiles...

All states have their own uses, not simply beneficial or harmful. How to use them depends on the player.

But probably because of the first time these states appeared, most of them were beneficial, and most of them increased flexibility. With the flexibility improved, the speed of those crocodiles was slow, so naturally there was no way to use the player's dragon boat. As long as it was not too trashed, after eating, it could easily avoid the attack of the crocodile... Of course, if you can't dodge, then no one could do it. Little friend, just eat rice dumplings honestly...

The Nautilus in front was closest to the crocodile, and he saw those states first. Obviously, the person who controlled the dragon boat on the Nautilus was also a smart person, and immediately understood what these things were. So the Nautilus immediately turned the direction again and rushed directly to a circle of blue light spots. After the dragon boat touched the light spots, the entire dragon boat was suddenly shrouded in blue light, and a circle rotated back and forth on the dragon boat!

Then, the flexibility of the Nautilus immediately reached another level!

Because the Nautilus is the closest to those crocodiles, most of the crocodiles are now targeting the Nautilus. However, after gaining the state of increasing flexibility, the Nautilus only moved slightly a little larger at the beginning, causing a little danger. Soon, the operator got used to the current flexibility and then easily shuttled between the crocodiles!

The crocodiles could not even get close to the Nautilus, let alone chased after him and took a bite. The Nautilus did not spend too much time rushing through the crocodile's territory, and then rushed straight ahead!

"The player on that dragon boat...the IQ is quite high!" Lin Musen touched his chin and looked at the Nautilus going away. He was able to react at such a fast speed and made the best choice. He passed the crocodile territory as quickly as possible, strengthening its advantages again. However, in fact, it also created a considerable opportunity for the dragon boat behind it!

The crocodiles behind were all gathered in the middle of this waterway because they were chasing the Nautilus. Other dragon boats could easily pass through both sides by bypassing the blockade of the crocodiles in front! And there was an acceleration on the current water surface!

After eating the acceleration, move forward straight, which can completely make up for the gap caused by the Nautilus! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
