Chapter 638 Sea Beast
"what happened?"

Seeing Cheng Yiyi's face change drastically, everyone was a little surprised.

"Before the apocalypse, I served in the Women's Marines on the coast..."

Cheng Yiyi explained with a complicated expression.

"The reason why I appeared in the Changhe base is because we encountered a lot of terrifying mutated marine creatures. We called those ghostly creatures sea beasts. We were almost wiped out by the sea beasts, and only a few people escaped..."

"According to the current ratings, those sea beasts are likely to be at the third or even fourth level! And that was at the beginning of the apocalypse... I dare not imagine how strong those sea beasts are now..."

"So, the fresh water in the crack turned into sea water. I have reason to suspect that the crack is connected to the ocean. If this is true, those terrifying sea beasts may appear in the crack and pose a threat to humans inland!"

Hearing Cheng Yiyi say this, everyone was shocked.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, most zombies on land were at level one, with a few at level two, while sea beasts had already reached level three or even level four. At this rate of evolution, how strong would those marine creatures be?
If these sea beasts come inland, what will happen to the human survivors? And there is a crack near the Changhe Base, so wouldn't it threaten the safety of the Changhe Base?

But soon, someone thought of an important issue.

"Captain Cheng just said that those are sea beasts. If that's the case, then we should try not to go near the cracks, then we'll be safe!"

"But we need to get water! Given the current high temperature, the water in our base is definitely not enough, and we need to store a lot of water. Unless we can find another place to get water, we may have to go to the cracks..."

"That's indeed a problem..."

"We need to study it carefully..."

"..."

Hearing everyone's discussion, Cheng Yiyi shook her head.

"You may have some misunderstandings. I never said that those sea beasts can only live in water."

"..."

Everyone was stunned.

Gu Yun asked quickly:

"Those things can still be brought ashore?"

"Yes, they usually live in the sea, but if there is food on land, they will also go ashore. From my previous experience, they have no problem staying on the shore for two or three days in a dehydrated state! Although staying on the shore for a long time will cause their combat effectiveness to decrease, they are still not something we humans can contend with..."

"..."

Everyone was a little silent.

If they can get ashore and still have strong combat power, it will not be a good thing for the entire Changhe base. After all, the mutant creatures in the sea are too strong!
"Let's suspend the water extraction work for a few days, and then send someone to carefully observe the cracks..."

Gu Yun thought about it and finally decided not to go to the crack to get water. Everyone's safety is the first priority.

Take advantage of these few days to observe the cracks carefully, and see if it is possible to automate the water extraction process to keep humans away from the cracks. This crystal energy instrument should not be the food for those mutant creatures, right?

"Well, that's good too..."

Everyone thought it was okay.

Cheng Yiyi came to Wang Tao and said:

"Wang Tao, can you help me investigate the cracks? Those sea beasts have left a deep shadow on me..."

Although the next water collection work was suspended, her Sixth Legion could not withdraw directly. She wanted to investigate whether there were any sea beasts in the crack. However, the scene of the sea beast destroying their base was still vivid in her mind. She was a little unconfident in her own strength, so she wanted to ask Wang Tao to escort her.

"Row."

Wang Tao nodded.

After listening to Cheng Yiyi's words, he became very interested in this crack, sea beasts and so on. Even if Cheng Yiyi didn't say anything, he might come to investigate. Not to mention that this also concerns the safety of Changhe Base, so he agreed directly.

"call--"

Seeing that Wang Tao agreed, Cheng Yiyi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

With Wang Tao around, she instantly felt more secure.

"I have to think carefully about how to investigate. Although my previous troops were almost wiped out by sea beasts, we also summed up a lot of experience..."

When Cheng Yiyi was about to tell Wang Tao some information about sea beasts, the Jingneng phone in the office suddenly rang.

Gu Yun picked it up immediately, and then suddenly his eyes widened.

Wang Tao and Cheng Yiyi looked at each other and could see that each other's expressions were not very good. They both had good hearing and heard clearly what Gu Yun said on the phone.

"……okay, I get it."

After Gu Yun hung up the phone, he looked at everyone with a very ugly expression.

"No need to investigate. The group of people and soldiers who went there to fetch water this morning were almost wiped out, with only a few people running over. The survivors said that a huge monster appeared in the crack, ate up all the people on the shore in one bite, and then dived into the water again. The few people who discovered all this walked slowly and far away, so they escaped..."

"Grass!"

Hearing this, everyone else cursed inwardly.

There is no doubt that this should be the sea monster that Cheng Yiyi just mentioned.

They had just been talking about the problem of sea monsters and were still praying that there would be no sea monsters, but in the blink of an eye, a sea monster appeared and swallowed up everyone on the shore!
It’s true that whatever you worry about will come true!

"I gonna go see."

Wang Tao turned around immediately.

"I am coming too!"

Cheng Yiyi followed immediately.

"Okay, thank you for your help. I'll issue a notice asking people not to go near the crack!"

……

Wei Zhenguo and others were still in the process of being promoted to the sixth level, so Wang Tao naturally couldn't take them with him. After asking Jiang Shixue to take care of them at home, Wang Tao took Cheng Yiyi and Lightning, rode on the Golden Eagle, and immediately left the Changhe Base.

After a moment, the black crack came into view.

They saw the location of the temporary water base at a glance. At this time, it had become a ruin, but there were no signs of fighting.

Obviously, the water collectors and soldiers were unable to put up any resistance and were swallowed up. There were also some small grooves on the ground, and Wang Tao thought that they were probably caused by the teeth of sea beasts...

After imagining the process of this group of people being attacked, Wang Tao was a little afraid to let the golden eagle fall there. After all, the unknown is the most terrifying. Without knowing how strong this sea beast is, it is better to be cautious.

So Wang Tao let the golden eagle hover over the crack, and they looked carefully at the water below to see if they could find any clues.

However, the crack was too deep, the water inside turned black and nothing could be seen.

After finding nothing near the temporary water base, Wang Tao let the golden eagle continue to fly along the crack to see if he could find anything else.

Just as the golden eagle turned around, there was a "splash" and a huge black fish head suddenly emerged from the calm water!

The fish head is bigger than the golden eagle! Its mouth is wide open, filled with densely packed teeth, and its eyes, like light bulbs, glow with an eerie green light.

chirp——

After all, the golden eagle was a fifth-level lord, so it reacted very quickly. When there was a slight movement on the water, it had already started flying into the sky.

As the big fish jumped out of the water with its mouth wide open, the golden eagle just managed to dodge its attack. Bang!
The big fish bit into nothing and made a muffled sound in its mouth.

zizi——

At the same time, two red rays of light shot out from Wang Tao's eyes and hit the big fish directly on the head.

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【-twenty four】

【…】

Its eyes suddenly became more ferocious, but as its old strength had been exhausted and no new strength had yet to be generated, it had no way to gain leverage in the air and could only watch the golden eagle fly higher and higher.

wow-

The big fish fell into the water, splashing countless water.

It immediately dived into the water and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Scared me!"

Cheng Yiyi could clearly feel her heartbeat. At that moment, she felt the breath of death. If it weren't for the golden eagle and Wang Tao, she might have been fed to the fish if she was alone!

"Is this a sea beast..."

Looking at the deep water surface, Wang Tao thought of the attributes he had just seen.

[Health Volume: 1000000/1000000]

[Blue amount: 0/0]

[Level: Level 6 Disaster]

[Impurities in the body: 68%]

【Disaster Awakening: Toxic Vapor】

[Highly toxic vapor: It emits a large amount of highly toxic vapor, causing continuous damage to the life within the vapor.]

This sea beast is a sixth-order catastrophic creature.

This disaster awakening is related to water, and is somewhat similar to other disaster awakenings, and will also cause people to lose blood continuously.

However, after just a brief contact, Wang Tao discovered that the range of this water vapor was not large, far less than the disaster awakening range of those disaster zombies on land.

It was only after it appeared that Wang Tao realized that he was losing blood. The distance was actually very close.

Of course, it could also be because it was out of the water? Maybe its disaster awakening range was larger in the water?

And its most powerful feature is not the disaster awakening, but its blood recovery speed.

Wang Tao just used [Burning Eye] to kill 3000 HP of the big fish sea monster. As a result, after it fell into the water, its HP recovery increased by per second, and its HP was restored to full in a few seconds!

This blood recovery energy is a bit too strong. Wang Tao's previous enemies with strong blood recovery ability were basically killed by time. It was very troublesome to kill them.

But Wang Tao also saw clearly that the blood recovery ability of this big fish only takes effect after entering the water. When he attacked it in mid-air just now, it did not recover blood. It only recovered blood quickly after falling into the water.

Therefore, if we can trick this sea beast out of the water, killing it should not be a problem. But it won't work in the water. Not to mention its ability to recover health, if it dives into the water, Wang Tao won't be able to find it.

But now there is an important question -

"The catastrophic awakening of this sea beast is 'highly toxic water vapor'. Will it pollute the water and make it poisonous?"

The Changhe Base still needs this water. If the water is poisonous, it will be very troublesome.

So Wang Tao let the golden eagle fly directly onto the water surface. He and Cheng Yiyi were on high alert, guarding against possible sneak attacks.

However, until Wang Tao successfully scooped a bucket of water, the big fish did not appear.

Let the golden eagle fly high again, Wang Tao looked at the water and judged that it was not poisonous. He licked it himself and did not bleed.

"It seems that the disaster awakening of this sea beast is similar to the awakening of other disaster creatures. Although it can cause continuous damage to life within the range, the damage is not permanent. It will be safe once you leave the disaster awakening range. Therefore, this big fish sea beast makes the water poisonous temporarily. After it leaves, the water will return to normal..."

After confirming this, Wang Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the water source is not polluted, there is still fun to be had.

Wang Tao told Cheng Yiyi about the situation of the sea beast just now.

"Continuously and quickly recovering vitality in the water... This seems to be a characteristic of sea beasts? Anyway, when we fought sea beasts before, we were on the shore and they were in the water. We felt that we could not kill them no matter what. I guess they should be recovering vitality... Maybe this is the innate ability of sea beasts!"

"A natural ability? If we want to kill it, we have to lure it to the shore!"

Unless Wang Tao could kill the sea beast instantly, it would obviously have a great advantage in the water - not only could it recover quickly, but it could also run away if it couldn't defeat it! It was impossible for Wang Tao to chase it in the water...

"In fact, it's not difficult to lure them ashore. We successfully lured them ashore with some food before! Anyway, the sea beasts we encountered before were not very smart. But..." Cheng Yiyi explained immediately, but at the end, she looked a little embarrassed. "We never fought them and were almost wiped out... These sea beasts are also very strong on land!"

"As long as you can bring it up!"

This is good news for Wang Tao.

"Let's go back and make bait to lure out the sea beasts. We will classify this place as an extremely dangerous area."

There was no way to deal with this sea beast for the time being, and since there was one sea beast, there must be more than one in the crack. So Wang Tao directly listed the crack as an extremely dangerous area and prohibited other survivors from approaching.

After the two returned to the base, they immediately summoned the top leaders of the base and told them about the rift sea beast.

"Oh shit……"

Gu Yun's face looked very ugly. What he feared was really coming true.

Now is a time when there is a shortage of water, and now there are sea beasts. They have no choice but to face these monsters head-on.

Fortunately, Cheng Yiyi has some experience in fighting sea beasts.

As long as he can lure the sea beast ashore, Wang Tao can kill it.

So a meat factory in the base was immediately put into operation and began to produce bait to lure sea beasts.

Cheng Yiyi took the opportunity to immediately fuse the crystal core that Wang Tao had given her, preparing to advance to level 6. In a battle with a sea beast of this level, she, who was only level 5, could basically not help much, so she had to quickly advance to level 6.

Wang Tao went home. There was no need to go to the crack before the bait was ready.

As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, Wang Tao felt a few familiar and powerful auras in the house.

Everyone in the house also heard the movement of the golden eagle and ran out immediately.

"Wang Tao! I have successfully advanced to level six!"

"Me too, hahaha!"

Xiang Hongbin, Wei Zhenguo and others were so excited that they could not express it in words.

A few ladies were a little calmer, but not too much.

Now they have finally caught up with Wang Tao and will not hold him back anymore.
