Lu Zhe put all 9 of his accumulated potential points into physique!
He rowed alone on one side, while the other four girls rowed on the other side!
The raft was actually able to move forward steadily!
"Everyone persist a little longer. When we get to Volcano Island, there will be enough coconuts..." said Lu Zhe.
The few girls looked at each other and all stated: "We can still hold on!"
They rowed for another half an hour!
"I...I really have no strength left..."
"Me too..."
Lu Zhe looked up at Volcano Island, it was getting closer and closer, with only 200 meters left!
"Everyone cannot stop, put in more effort, keep rowing, there are just over 200 meters left. When we reach our destination, I'll open coconuts for everyone!"
"Okay...persevering..."
"Keep at it..."
"To survive, for the coconuts, I must not drag everyone down..."
But just then, due to an unexpected wave, bottles of shiny water fell into the ocean.
However, the negative impact brought this time was far from just losing face!
The ominous substances dispersed in the sea attracted the attention of Galeocerdo cuvier!
Originally, the sharks had no interest in the raft with two "sea snakes" hanging from it, they were just swimming around under the raft!
Curious, they bit open a bottle, and human scents drifted out from it.
This instantly drove them into a frenzy again, and they regained curiosity about the raft!
Among all species of sharks, this species has the strongest attack impulse.
Extremely fierce and greedy, they can eat almost any animal in the ocean, and are also full of intense hostility and impulse to attack things that do not belong in the ocean!
Garbage waste, including humans, even their own kind, are their food.
Lu Zhe knew that at this time there was no other way but to leave the waters quickly.
He urged: "Row quickly, hurry and leave this sea area!"
Victory was near, the opposite shore was right before their eyes.
Everyone used their last bit of strength to row desperately!
However, they still suffered a shark attack!
Because of the "sea snakes" hanging behind, the sharks attacked from both sides!
And because this raft was hastily repaired just yesterday, many parts were not very sturdy. Many pieces of wood had fallen off!
At this rate, they would sink before even reaching shore!
By that time, none of them would survive!
Seeing more and more sharks coming to attack, Lu Zhe knew they could not go head to head. His eyes searched all around.
Suddenly, Lu Zhe discovered a tiny island barely exposed above the sea surface not far away!
It was just a small mound protruding above the water. The exposed area was only fifteen to sixteen square meters!
Although it was not big, it was enough for them to temporarily take shelter from the shark attacks!
"Don't stop, row towards that side!"
"There are too many sharks..."
"Ah, it wants to bite me..."
"The raft... the raft is sinking!"
Lu Zhe looked back and couldn't help being shocked in silence. There were seven to eight sharks attacking the raft now!
Half of the raft's wood had been ripped off. The girls' legs were already submerged in water!
In this situation, even if it were Mr. De or Mr. Bei here instead, they would be screwed, not to mention these girls!
In an emergency, with no other choice,
Lu Zhe waved the oar and knocked the fire can down into the water!
"Hiss..."
The burning charcoal in the fire can instantly created a burst of mist upon contact with sea water. The charcoal ashes scattered in the water, scaring the sharks into scattering!
"Take this chance!"
Lu Zhe powerfully rowed the oar. The girls hurriedly followed suit. A minute later when the sharks regained themselves and wanted to attack again, they had already successfully landed on the tiny island!
The girls sat huddled together in the middle of the tiny island, their faces drained of color from fear, crying uncontrollably!
But thankfully, no one was injured!
Lu Zhe pulled up the remaining raft parts onto shore. Luckily, although much wood had been torn from the raft, the bottles, wrapped in plastic bags, still had over twenty left!
The backpack containing important supplies had also not been lost!
And the clothes, attached to poles for a sun shelter, did not fall apart either!
Lu Zhe hauled these clothes onto shore as well!
He then propped up a sun shelter!
The girls were crying so much that they couldn't speak, so let them cry for a while!
Lu Zhe washed his face with sea water, forcing himself to calm down. He started analyzing their current situation and devising countermeasures!
