Natural disasters are coming: the space is busy with stockpiling and farming

Chapter 191 Hunting Mutated Octopus

Jiang Sheng's refusal was ruthlessly ignored by the two of them. The rubber boat floated on the slightly microwaved sea, swaying gently.

It has been a long time since the last incident, and the base has strengthened its precautions. So far, no trace of the so-called mutated animals has been found.

Jiang Sheng didn't want to bring these two great masters with him. After all, once they got together, sparks would fly and the atmosphere would be weird and awkward.

The rubber boat drifted with the current, its paddle gently lapping the water, bringing up a few drops of transparent sea water from time to time.

The strong salty smell of the sea water can't help but rush towards the surface. If you put your hands in the water, you can even touch a few fish that are leisurely strolling around.

Jiang Sheng took out a few grains of fish food bought from the store from the space. He usually feeds it to the fish in the fish pond, but this time he can use it for fun.

The fish food floated on the sea and disappeared before anyone could react. The water splash around the rubber boat became bigger and bigger, but no trace of the mutated animals could be found.

His eyes moved from the sea to Su Chen, but the other party shook his head helplessly.

He had already used up his mental energy to investigate, but he still couldn't feel anything. At most, he could detect the fish around the rubber boat.

Cheng Xiao squatted on the stern of the boat and looked at the sea level in the distance. The metal necklace around his neck gave him a more carefree and free feeling. He was wearing a pair of harem pants specially designed for him by Jiang Sheng, and his appearance was soaring to the sky.

He didn't feel anything was wrong, but Jiang Sheng didn't want to return without success, so the three of them started having breakfast directly on the sea.

Cheng Xiao was not interested in human food at all. He took out a few high-level crystal nuclei from his pocket and chewed them like jelly beans.

Jiang Sheng and Su Chen each held a cup of soy milk and sipped it, holding a meat bun in their hands, which looked like it was freshly baked and still steaming.

The rubber boat floated farther away from the island, and Jiang Sheng didn't bother to care about it. After all, the wind was not strong today. According to the current speed of the rubber boat, it would take a long time to disappear around the base.

She swallowed the bun in her mouth, threw the plastic bag into the space, took out a camera and started taking pictures.

The warm brilliance of the morning glow spreads wantonly on the sea, and the white clouds in the distance are also smudged with brilliant colors.

The sky after the end of the world has become even bluer, forming a line with the sea in the distance, with a few soft white clouds dotted in it.

The sound of snapping photos could be heard endlessly. Jiang Sheng's hair, tied into a high ponytail, was gently blown up by the sea breeze, scratching Su Chen's face.

"There's movement!"

Su Chen noticed a huge thing swimming towards the rubber boat at high speed. Its aura was getting stronger and stronger, and within a few seconds it was around the rubber boat.

Cheng Xiao casually took off his long sleeves, threw them into Jiang Sheng's arms, and quickly jumped into the sea.

As a zombie, he didn't need to breathe. Through the slightly blue water, he saw a huge octopus.

The seawater restricted his movement slightly, but he didn't care. He swam towards the octopus quickly. His fangs and sharp claws appeared instantly, and he quickly attacked the octopus as he moved towards it.

Of course, the octopus will not be easily captured. Its tentacles suddenly swell, with dense and sharp barbs protruding from them. They can easily scrape off a layer of flesh on a human body.

The octopus kept looking for Cheng Xiao, but the bottom of the sea was its world, and Cheng Xiao's movements were always not as sharp as those on the shore. He was actually attacked several times by the octopus, and almost had a big hole pierced by its tentacles.

Jiang Sheng couldn't see what was going on at the bottom of the sea, but she also knew that she couldn't act rashly. If she accidentally activated her power and accidentally hurt Cheng Xiao, it would be a real loss outweighing the gain.

The sea surface gradually became rough, and the rubber boat was shaken in all directions by the waves. If Jiang Sheng hadn't held on tightly to the handle, he might have been shaken off long ago.

She thought that this mutated animal was not a difficult thing to deal with, but it turned out that Cheng Xiao never came out of the sea, which really made her feel worried.

What if Cheng Xiao really loses to this mutated animal that doesn’t know the whole story?

Jiang Sheng was anxious and kept calling to the sea surface, asking Cheng Xiao to come out quickly.

But the sea water is still turbulent, and the surrounding fish have long since dispersed. The sea surface is desolate, and there is no trace of life.

Jiang Sheng's heart became more and more uneasy. She hurriedly pulled Su Chen's sleeves and asked him to use his mental power to protect Cheng Xiao. She immersed her palms in the sea water, and a few traces of thunder and lightning leaked from her fingertips. She planned to directly

Kill this mutated animal with one blow.

"No, Cheng Xiao is here."

Su Chen took her hand out of the sea water, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped her cold fingertips, using the warmth of his palm to warm her hands.

Sure enough, the churning water gradually calmed down, and a few ripples swam towards the rubber boat. Cheng Xiao grabbed the rope and jumped up easily.

His recovery ability and defense were both good, and there was not a single wound on his body. Jiang Sheng felt relieved and took out a bath towel from the space and handed it to Cheng Xiao.

"Why did it take so long?"

Jiang Sheng looked at his wet hair and reluctantly took out a dry hair cap and helped Cheng Xiao put it on his head.

"It was difficult for me to move in the sea, but the big octopus was fast and had many tentacles, so the fight was more intense.

This is its crystal core, it looks very energetic, please put it away."

Cheng Xiao casually handed the crystal core to Jiang Sheng, while Su Chen used his spiritual power as an oar and rowed slowly toward the base with the rubber boat.

Jiang Sheng looked at the crystal core, but did not accept it: "You killed me, so I'll give you the crystal core. I don't need it."

As a high-level zombie, Cheng Xiao needs a lot of crystal cores to replenish energy, so it is better for Cheng Xiao to hold this energy-rich crystal core by himself.

Cheng Xiao shook his head: "No need."

The two of them were siblings. When Jiang Sheng saw that he refused again, he directly put the crystal core into the space.

It's good not to be a fool.

This mutated octopus was mainly because it was too fast. It ran away immediately after committing the crime and was unable to catch its breath in time.

Thinking back on it, it relied on its own speed to hide in other sea areas. After all, Su Chen's mental power detection also had a range, so it was able to escape.

However, the sea is ever-changing and the creatures are also diverse. No one knows how many more mutated animals are hidden in it, which makes Jiang Sheng feel very uneasy.

Although the base's food now mainly relies on agricultural cultivation, many people go out to hunt zombies every day.

After all, the crystal core is a good thing. It can absorb the energy inside and use it to improve abilities, and it can also be used as currency for material exchange.

Therefore, although food is hard to find, it is not that no one goes out.

The island where the Xinsheng Base is located is also some distance from the shore. The pontoon can only be walked across by legs. If a mutated animal really sets an ambush there, the base will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.
