Seeing Lu Zhe so nervous, the girls knew something big had happened, so they didn't ask much. They just controlled the sail and rowed the raft, trying to get it to leave this troubled place as soon as possible!
But the bamboo raft had only gone twenty meters away when Lu Zhe suddenly said, "Stop!"
"Why?"
"Take the oars up, don't row anymore, and don't talk!"
Jiang Yao and Guo Er both took the oars up and looked at Lu Zhe in confusion.
"Shhh..." Lu Zhe gestured for them to be quiet, then pointed to the canopy on the raft and mouthed, "Go in..."
Guo Er went in first, then Qian Qian. When Jiang Yao was about to go in, a huge black shadow swam under the raft, giving her a fright. She quickly crouched down in front of Lu Zhe.
"A whale?" Jiang Yao whispered.
"No, it should be some kind of soft-bodied organism..."
"Soft-bodied?"
"Yeah, I don't know if it's an octopus, squid, cuttlefish, calamari or octopus, too big to see the whole picture, I just saw a leg, couldn't make out the full appearance."
"Ah, what should we do then?"
"Stay down and don't move. Maybe it'll go away soon. These guys seem very sensitive and also quite smart, but they have one weakness...they're timid and easily frightened!"
"Also one of the 'ten thousand whys'?"
"No, this is the Underwater Commando Unit!"
Lu Zhe carefully rummaged for supplies!
The only nitrates left, mixed with sulfur and charcoal, could make a small bomb with a bamboo tube.
Lu Zhe quickly poured the gunpowder into the bamboo tube, leaving oil paper and gunpowder as a fuse.
This bamboo tube and fuse were prepared in advance, even the sulfur and charcoal were pre-mixed, just in case of danger, so he could quickly make a simple detonator!
It only took Lu Zhe three minutes to make a detonator!
"What can this thing blow up?"
"It looks a bit rushed, but don't underestimate the power of this detonator. Tying it to a mouse would most likely blow it up directly! Of course, tying it to a small turtle may not work, but it would definitely give it a shock."
Jiang Yao's eyes widened.
As they spoke, the black shadow swam back and seemed to linger under the raft.
Lu Zhe became nervous. Has it noticed us?
He lay on the raft with one hand holding the "detonator" and the other holding the match, ready to blow up this big fish at any time.
Soon, a tentacle emerged from the water and slowly crawled onto the raft. Jiang Yao quickly retracted her feet, almost getting caught by the giant tentacle.
Then the tentacle stretched out and retracted, grabbing the chair that was on the raft, the one Lu Zhe had taken from the airplane's first class cabin.
It quickly wrapped around the chair and pulled it into the water, causing a stream of bubbles.
Is it over?
But soon after, the tentacle crawled up again. This time it dragged down a pair of backpacks filled with bottles of fresh water.
Lu Zhe was a little annoyed!
It's not over yet!
We came here to search for supplies from the plane, but it came to my raft to collect supplies!
The third time, it grabbed the parcel containing food. Lu Zhe lit the "detonator" out of irritation and stuffed it into the backpack as it fell into the water.
Then he felt he had been a little impulsive.
If it got dragged into the water now, the fuse might not have burned into the interior, and the seawater would most likely extinguish it, rendering it useless.
But what else could he do?
How much use could it be?
There wasn't much left on the raft. What would it do next if it didn't get anything?
Would it drag the whole raft into the water?
Lu Zhe took out his gun. If it quit while ahead this time, fine. But if it wanted to pull the raft into the water, he would fire a few shots to smash this tentacle and then jump into the water to fight it out.
This time, two tentacles grabbed the gunwales while a third tentacle climbed up again and grabbed the mast!
Under the tremendous pulling force, the raft tilted violently to one side, about to sink at any moment.
In a flash, just as Lu Zhe was about to open fire, there was a flash of light underwater, followed by a muffled "bang", as if a whale had let out a fart.
The makeshift "detonator" had actually exploded underwater!
Although the power was somewhat shabby, probably not even killing a small clown fish, it had an unexpected effect.
In an instant, the water below was like a ruptured oil well, gurgling large amounts of black liquid that dyed this large area of the sea as black as ink.
Then, the three tentacles retracted into the sea with lightning speed!
Lu Zhe was annoyed. Damn you, you took all my stuff away, how could you leave without giving something back!
He rushed up and grabbed the axe, chopping down on the end of a tentacle just as it was about to retract into the sea.
Lu Zhe's blow was astonishingly powerful, chopping off a tentacle as thick as a calf and half a meter long, leaving it writhing on the raft!
It immediately reminded him of the writhing Luo Cheng in a certain advertisement.
But unlike Luo Cheng, the giant octopus didn't seem to care about this bit of flesh.
It quickly hid in the shadows and disappeared completely.
The pitch-black sea surface of over 200 meters, with seven or eight bodies bobbing in the waves, looked deep and eerie!
But the danger seemed to have passed.
Lu Zhe sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It should be gone..."
The girls cautiously poked their heads out, but when they saw the tentacle writhing alone on the raft, they shrank back in fright!
"Lu Zhe, isn't it still here?"
"This? It's just its tentacle, I chopped it off."
Qianqian looked closely and noticed that this was an "individual" detached from the unknown octopus.
Looking at Lu Zhe's slightly smug appearance.
"So you mean you drove it away?"
Lu Zhe shamelessly nodded. "To be frank, yes! But we've also lost a lot of fresh water and food! This guy has issues, leaving the sharks alone and coming after us!"
Tang Xiaoguo asked, "What is this thing?" Jiang Yao guessed, "Giant Pacific octopus?"
Lin Qianqian shook her head: "I've seen science programs. Giant Pacific octopuses shouldn't appear in the tropics, but giant king octopuses occasionally show up in the tropics."
Lu Zhe gently touched the tentacle, and a message came to his mind: "New protein source found: Giant King Octopus."
Lu Zhe nodded. "Qianqian is right, this is the second largest member of the octopoda order, the giant king octopus! But this one seems bigger than any recorded individuals!"
"Let's not study this for now. The plane has become its home. We're running low on fresh water, let's get back and figure things out!"
But when he hoisted the sail again, he found that the mast had been bent and the sail torn into two pieces!
"Damn it!" Lu Zhe was a little annoyed. "First we have to go to the bamboo hut at sea to fix the raft!"
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
