Chapter 129 Diving
When ordinary people only saw the black outline of the big ship on the sea, Zuo Zhicheng had clearly seen the specific appearance of the hull through the long-sightedness and night vision of the left eyeball.
It was a big ship made of completely steel. Not only that, the entire hull had no such thing as a mast. Instead, thick smoke was constantly coming out of a large chimney.
Zuo Zhicheng's heart sank again when he saw this. The ships driven by the ghouls turned out to be a steam boat. I don't know whether they drove the ship from the West Road or built it on the east coast. No wonder the army of Daqi never noticed them. This kind of steam boat is constantly stopping day and night, with stronger power than manpower, and can travel against the wind and faster than ordinary ships.
Zuo Zhicheng frowned. It seemed that it was impossible to rely on the passenger ship under his feet to get rid of the ghouls. But if he wanted to fight against the other party on the ship.
He changed the usage mode of his right eye and saw dozens of purple Mars rising from the distant sea in the infrared sight, and several orange flames mixed in it, indicating the opponent's strength.
It seems that Zuo Zhicheng interrogated Victor before, but the other party did not lie. The strength of this group of ghouls is so powerful that it can sweep the entire Xinlu. Even Zuo Zhicheng may not be their opponent.
And now it is still above the sea, and there is no place to escape, and there is no strategic buffer.
‘It is impossible to fight head-on with them…’ Zuo Zhicheng thought of this and looked at Lin Hongsheng and others behind him: ‘I can only find a way to hide first.’
Thinking of this, he turned around and walked towards Lin Hongsheng and others.
They were still excited and happy to see a boat coming from afar.
"That's great. It should be another cargo ship. We can ask them to help us."
"No one on our side can drive a boat, so you can ask them to come up."
But just as they were still immersed in the excitement of the aftermath of the disaster, Zuo Zhicheng had already rushed up and punched them all out.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other people wanted to leave, but now they were so scared that they were so dizzy that they could slip away from Zuo Zhicheng? After a while, everyone on the deck had been knocked to the ground and fainted.
Zuo Zhicheng estimated that with his heavy skills, each of these people would faint for more than ten hours, and some people might even have sequelae, but he can't control it so carefully now.
After knocking down Lin Hongsheng and others, Zuo Zhicheng ran to his room, removed the layout in the room, and pulled Jiang Qing out of the bed.
"How is it?" Jiang Qing saw that Zuo Zhicheng was covered in blood and said worriedly: "Are you injured?"
"I'm fine." Zuo Zhicheng said as he took off his clothes and washed away the blood from his feet: "I killed everyone on the boat, but they still have accomplices. You can go out with me to hide now."
"Hide? But where to hide?"
While speaking, Zuo Zhicheng had already changed into a set of spare clothes and burned all his blood-stained cloak and coat. Then he took out two special sets of clothes from the closet.
"Put it on." Zuo Zhicheng said coldly.
Seeing the clothes made of animal skins, Jiang Qing asked, "What is this?"
"The diving suit I prepared is made of goatskin, which can be waterproof and insulated. You can wear the spare one." As he said that, Zuo Zhicheng had already worn the diving suit on his body: "But both of my parts are made according to my own size, so try to wear them."
"Dive? But why do we need to dive?" Jiang Qing also started wearing diving suits when she heard this, but she was still a little confused.
"I killed their vanguard. After they occupied the passenger ship, they would definitely check the entire ship. There is no place to hide on this ship, so we have to go into the water and dive into the other party's ship."
The more this kind of crisis, Zuo Zhicheng seemed to be calmer and said calmly: "Although it is already summer, the maximum temperature of the sea water here is only 15 to 20 degrees at night. Wearing a diving suit is to allow you to maintain your body temperature. If you have a fever or a cold at this time, it is too dangerous."
"And you have to be careful of situations where you can't dive in." Zuo Zhicheng explained while preparing a hook claw: "Once we are left on the sea and have no diving suits, we will die for up to twelve hours."
As he said that, after he was ready, he looked up at Jiang Qing: "Are you okay?"
"Okay." Jiang Qing followed Zuo Zhicheng nervously, but looking at the other party's calm and composed look, she felt relieved for some reason.
As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived on the deck. Zuo Zhicheng suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, you can swim, right?"
Jiang Qing grew up in Xinlu Port and naturally knew how to swim. When Zuo Zhicheng saw her nodded, he hugged her and jumped towards the sea.
With a plop, the two jumped into the water together. Jiang Qing put his hand on Zuo Zhicheng's shoulder, and the latter swung his hook claws and hooked the edge of the ship.
Just a few minutes after they went into the water, the sound of the vast and distant horn sounded again, but this time it stopped in Zuo Zhicheng's ears, it was already a short distance away.
‘It came so fast.’ While Zuo Zhicheng was thinking this, the sound of the horn in his ears became more and more urgent and closer.
‘Yes, are they connected with each other through the sound of the horn?’ When Zuo Zhicheng made such a judgment in his heart, the hull suddenly shook, and it was the other party’s large steel ship that had gently hit the passenger ship.
However, Zuo Zhicheng specially chose the back of the passenger ship, and the other party could not find them.
After waiting for a while, I heard the crowds of people on the deck, all kinds of laughter, noise, and curses constantly coming. The Western languages spoken by Victor and others, the native dialect of the New World, and the official dialect spoken by the people of Daqi.
'It seems that the ingredients of these ghouls are very complicated.' While thinking about this, Zuo Zhicheng had already taken off his hook claws, pulled Jiang Qing, and swam towards the other party's steel boat bit by bit.
Just as they were swimming, there was a burst of shouting and cursing sound from the boat. Zuo Zhicheng guessed that it was the death of Peter, Victor and others. However, the other party spoke Western languages and he did not understand the specific meaning.
But this could not stop him from continuing to swim towards the other party's steel boat.
It took more than twenty minutes before Zuo Zhicheng and Jiang Qing swam along the edges of the two ships to the north of the steel ship little by little.
