The long wait will undoubtedly bring great suffering to people, and the monsters that will appear under the water at any time make people nervous to the point of madness. Most people are restlessly waiting for the thick fog in the center of the river to dissipate, feeling in their hearts.
There is both expectation and a bit of fear.
Chen Fan did not go into the water immediately. Instead, he sat on a rock by the river and thought about countermeasures. It was not yet time for the passage to another world to be closed, so there was no need for him to go into the water in advance to face those monsters.
Moreover, when the passage to another world is closed, the underwater monsters will react immediately, and the next attack will be even crazier than before. Chen Fan asked Wu Tian to seize the time to absorb the energy of the fire, which can increase his strength.
Naturally, Wu Tian would not object to Chen Fan's arrangement. Along the way, he seized every moment he could to absorb energy and fire. His level of evolution was much higher than that of other survivors, and he entered a relatively high level.
As for the other survivors, they could only stare at Wu Tian who was frantically absorbing power. It was not that they did not desire energy and fire, and they also understood that this thing had huge benefits for themselves. However, Chen Fan's existence made this gang
The people who were watching eagerly did not dare to covet it in the slightest.
Xiao Zheng was the only person who could get closer to Wu Tian. While everyone was waiting for the opportunity to go into the water by the river, he secretly walked towards Wu Tian and said in a negotiating tone, "After we go into the water, can I ride with you?"
The same raft?”
Wu Tian was stunned and asked, "Don't you have one yourself?" Xiao Zheng said with a sad face, "My raft is too broken, and I didn't have time to reinforce it in such a short time, and..."
Having said this, Xiao Zheng glanced at Chen Fan vaguely, and the thoughts in his heart were self-evident.
Chen Fan has the highest combat power among all the people. Only by following him can you be at ease. If the underwater monsters attack them before the space channel is closed, only Chen Fan has the ability to resist.
From the bottom of his heart, Wu Tian did not intend to reject Xiao Zheng, but after all, Chen Fan had the final say here. After hearing this, Wu Tian hesitated and looked at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan naturally felt Xiao Zheng's longing eyes. Unexpectedly, he did not refuse this time, but nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Chen Fan actually agreed to his request for the first time, Xiao Zheng was inevitably surprised. After the accident, he was ecstatic and hurriedly said to Chen Fan, "Thank you, I will not hold you back. After we leave from here, I will definitely
I will repay you well."
Chen Fan smiled unfathomably, waved his hand to interrupt Xiao Zheng's words, pointed to the place in the center of the river where the thick fog began to recede, and said, "Let's row the boat. We still have about half an hour. If we can't row the raft to the cruise ship within half an hour,
Once you sink, you cannot return to the real world."
Xiao Zheng immediately jumped to the water to push the boat, and Wu Tian took the initiative to help. Zhao Yu walked towards Chen Fan at some point, pointed at Xiao Zheng's back and said, "This doesn't look like you, what are you fighting for?"
idea?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "If the weather is calm, I naturally don't mind taking one more person away, but if the weather is rough, it might be useful to keep him."
The raft was pushed into the water. Wu Tian climbed onto the raft first and then shouted to the two of them to "board the boat." Chen Fan and Zhao Yu looked at each other and quickly stepped onto the raft. The four of them quickly rowed the raft towards the center of the river.
When Chen Fan started to take action, the remaining survivors also entered the water one after another. The rowing trajectories of these people were surprisingly consistent, and they all followed Chen Fan at a short distance.
This naturally makes sense. Once the monsters appear, everyone will become a target. As long as they follow Chen Fan, the pressure they will face will be much less. Everyone understands this truth.
However, Chen Fan just glanced at the survivors following him indifferently, and the slightly raised corners of his mouth were full of ridicule. He naturally knew what these people were thinking, and using him and Zhao Yu as a shield was certainly an idea.
Yes, it's a pity that Chen Fan had his own plans, and these people's wishful thinking is destined to fail.
As people gradually approached the center of the river, there was already an undercurrent surging under the seemingly calm water. The huge monsters in the water did not appear, but ordered the octopus monsters to approach them. These monsters did not surface immediately.
It's just a matter of waiting for the best opportunity.
Chen Fan had already captured the scent of a large number of strange beasts existing underwater, but did not show it. Zhao Yu, on the other hand, looked nervous, nervously grasping the wooden stick in his hand, and looking underwater from time to time.
Zhao Yu, who is also a superpower, can naturally detect abnormalities underwater. Although the aura of these strange beasts is very weak and does not pose any threat to her, when hundreds of octopus monsters gather together at the same time,
, that breath is also extremely terrifying.
Zhao Yu had only evolved for a short time and was not yet fully accustomed to the energy in her body. She was even more unaccustomed to such a bloody battle scene. She instinctively leaned towards Chen Fan and said in an unnatural tone, "These alien beasts are clearly targeting us.
, why are you still launching an attack?”
Chen Fan said calmly, "They are waiting for everyone to row the raft to the center of the river before taking action, but now there is less than twenty minutes left before the otherworld passage is closed, so it is probably soon."
Sure enough, not long after Chen Fan finished speaking, a large number of bubbles immediately appeared under the water. The raft swayed slightly under the influence of the bubbles, while dense blue figures filled the depths of the river, and countless strange beasts gathered together.
Gathered together like a dark blue river, Wu Tian and Xiao Zheng shook their bodies and immediately jumped up and shouted, "They have appeared, they have appeared..."
With the shouts, fear spread in everyone's hearts like a plague. The few survivors immediately turned their eyes to their feet. Then, they saw countless tentacles waving under the water, densely intertwined like water plants.
Together, regardless of each other.
Then, those tentacles approached the raft, and a "bang bang" sound was heard from under the raft, as if someone was knocking on the door below.
"Here comes the monster!"
I don’t know who was the first to shout. This frightened shout also heralded the beginning of the battle. The terrifying octopus tentacles began to spread towards the raft, and the survivors did not sit still and wait for death.
In order to survive, they had no choice but to fight hard.
Wherever there is massacre, there will be resistance. The survivors' performance is no longer as vulnerable as before. The moment the octopus monster's tentacles surfaced, everyone raised their "weapons".
The so-called "weapons" are actually wooden sticks torn from trees. Someone tied a sharper stone to the wooden stick and used it as a weapon to attack monsters. There is no other way except these wooden sticks.
and stones, they could no longer find other tools to use.
Although the lethality of this weapon is not great, it is still better than bare hands. What's more, the monsters did not attack them immediately. Instead, they targeted Chen Fan's raft, so there were no casualties in a short period of time.
