Nellie kept looking behind her nervously. The distance between them and the monsters was shrinking rapidly.
On the other hand, the three of them were getting closer and closer to the sea above their heads.
During the last part of the journey, both parties increased their speed to the extreme.
Nellie saw the half-man, half-fish frog monsters coming from all directions as if they were going to drown them.
But the next moment, her head left the water, and she saw the sun outside again.
Before this, Nellie never thought that the sun that she saw every day could be so cute.
When the sun fell on her body again, Nellie felt warm like never before.
The three of them had now left the sea. Just when Nellie thought that the danger was over, an exceptionally strong black shadow suddenly jumped out of the water.
An exceptionally strong black shadow suddenly leaped out of the water. It jumped from the back of one of its companions, which also made it much higher than when it jumped directly from the water.
It was so high that it could grab Zhang Heng's ankle.
Originally, Zhang Heng's Shadow Wings could only carry two people. Nellie and Han Lu were girls, and they weren't that heavy. However, they were also carrying a full set of diving equipment on their backs. As soon as they left the water, Zhang Heng felt the pressure of flying.
His speed decreased again, but he was still rising. When another half-man, half-fish frog monster hung on his body, the Shadow Wings could no longer support such a heavy weight.
The three of them began to fall back to the water.
Even at such a critical moment, Zhang Heng still maintained absolute calmness. He visually measured the distance between him and the nearest reef nearby.
Zhang Heng threw Nelly and Han Lu away with all his might. After throwing the two women away, the weight on his Shadow Wings was reduced. Before Zhang Heng could rise again, more black shadows emerged from the water. Before they could reach Zhang Heng, they grabbed their companions that were hanging on his body.
So Nellie and Han Lu saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
At that moment, at least seven or eight monsters were hanging on Zhang Heng's body. At the same time, more monsters jumped out of the sea.
Unfortunately, the Shadow Wings on Zhang Heng's back had also reached its ten-second single-use time. After that, it disappeared.
Zhang Heng's body fell back into the sea, like a drop of water falling into a pot of boiling oil.
The half-man, half-fish frog monsters below were completely enraged when they saw this.
They surrounded Zhang Heng who had fallen into the water and brought him all the way down the huge undersea tunnel.
It was as if he was being sent to hell.
After witnessing this scene, Han Lu wanted to jump back into the sea to look for Zhang Heng, but she was quickly stopped by Nelly.
"Are you crazy? There's no gas in your cylinder."
"He was caught by those things in order to save us." Han Lu said, "Otherwise, with his strength, even if he can't defeat those things, he can definitely escape."
As Han Lu spoke, she turned her gaze to Nelly. "Lend me your gas cylinder."
"I don't have much gas left in my cylinder. You need to calm down. We won't be able to help him even if we go underwater in our current state."
There was one more thing that Nellie did not say. There was not much compressed air left in Zhang Heng's cylinder. Even if he was not torn to shreds by those monsters, he would not be able to survive.
Even if he was not torn to shreds by those monsters, there was almost no chance of survival once he was dragged to the bottom of the sea. The only thing she could do now was to persuade Han Lu not to do anything stupid. Otherwise, Zhang Heng's previous sacrifice would be in vain.
Fortunately, Han Lu was not the kind of girl who would die with Zhang Heng. The reason why she wanted to go into the water was because she saw Zhang Heng being dragged into the water by those monsters.
But after Nelly dissuaded her, she calmed down again. She knew that Nelly was right. In their current state, even if they jumped into the water again, they wouldn't be able to help Zhang Heng. Instead, they would lose their lives.
So far, Zhang Heng had saved Han Lu twice. If it was a life for a life, Han Lu could consider it. However, there was no point in making an unnecessary sacrifice.
Only if she was alive could she find a way to save Zhang Heng. Unlike Nelly, Han Lu had actually thought about the gas cylinder. However, because of the Dreamland of Death, Han Lu had more or less peeked into Zhang Heng's world. So, she still had some hope.
Although Han Lu also knew that this hope was more like a kind of self-consolation, she was still willing to do her best for this faint hope.
Han Lu asked Nelly next to her, "I heard that there are troops stationed on Yonaguni Island. Is that true?"
Nelly was stunned. "Yes, there is a Self-Defense Forces base, but there are not many people in it. Do you want them to help us find Zhang Heng?"
Speaking of this, Nelly seemed to have thought of something. She then took out her camera. "Although I didn't manage to take pictures of those monsters, I did take some pictures of the wall carvings. Maybe we can use these photos to convince the people in the base to believe us."
Han Lu looked at the undersea tunnel at her feet again. At this moment, it looked extremely calm, and she could no longer see the shadow of a monster. It was as if everything that happened before was just an illusion. And the figure that Han Lu was looking forward to never appeared in front of her from the bottom of the sea. Han Lu reluctantly retracted her gaze. "Let's not delay any longer. Let's go now."
…
Han Lu and Nelly used the diving computer's directions to find the boat they came from. The captain was also taking out his mobile phone to Google the magical phenomenon of the seawater suddenly turning red.
However, other than being amazed, the netizens did not say anything.
When he saw Han Lu and Nelly, he said, "It's great that you guys are okay. I was worried about the seawater that suddenly turned red …"
The captain suddenly paused. "Aren't there three of you? Where's the guy with the Tokyo accent? "
"We encountered some … terrible things," Nelly said, "Now, we need to hurry back to the island to get help."
"Roger that." The captain could also see the seriousness of the situation from the two women's faces. He stopped smiling and said seriously while steering the boat, "One more person means more strength. If you need help, please be sure to let me help. I can mobilize the people from the Fishery Association. As long as we work together, we can get through this."
A bitter smile appeared on Nelly's face. "I'm afraid this matter is not something that ordinary people can handle. Anyway, send us back to the island first."
As long as she thought of the things she saw underwater, Nelly did not want to stay at sea for even a moment longer.
After that, she looked at Han Lu again. The latter was sitting at the stern of the boat, and no one knew what she was thinking.
