Mo Qiong used a bread crumb to shoot at the sea monster.
It was just a casual move. Logically speaking, the bread crumb should have disappeared because there was no such creature on Earth.
However, the bread crumb did not disappear. Instead, it turned and floated somewhere.
Mo Qiong was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair.
"There really is such a creature on Earth!"
Mo Qiong felt his scalp go numb. Such a creature was only mentioned in myths and legends. Who in modern times would believe that it really existed?
However, his ability would not lie to him. He was very sure that what he had locked onto was not a photo, but an actual super huge sea monster in his mind.
Its appearance and physique were all based on the photo provided by Zhang He.
As long as there was no such creature in the world, the bread crumb he threw should have disappeared.
However, his ability clearly told him that there was such a creature, and it was in the sea.
"Do you really believe me?" Zhang He was surprised.
Mo Qiong's expression changed and finally calmed down. He smiled and said, "I just think that the world is big and there are all kinds of strange things. It is arrogant of humans to think that things that they have never seen before don't exist."
"I didn't believe it at first, but after looking at this picture, I feel that maybe the Leviathan and the Kunpeng described by the ancients are not imaginary. Maybe there is a prototype."
"Maybe it is a huge sea creature from ancient times that has survived until now. This is not impossible. After all, the sea is too big."
Hearing Mo Qiong's words, Zhang He was very excited.
He nodded as if he had found a soulmate. "Yes!"
"Look at the photo. Doesn't it look like a huge, undiscovered Pliosaurus or Mosasaurus?"
"Maybe there is a dinosaur that has survived until now."
Zhang He said so, but his friends were all laughing.
"Even a dinosaur is not that big. One thousand meters. Humans can't even build an aircraft carrier that is one thousand meters long, brother."
Zhang He was silent. He did not know how to prove it. In fact, he had only heard rumors, so he wanted to look for it, hoping that he could see it himself.
However, he did not know where it was, only the approximate range. If it was so easy to see it, many merchant ships would have seen it.
Mo Qiong said, "Zhang He, have you ever thought that even if you believe that Lippi is not lying, why did he admit that it was a rumor?"
Zhang He was stunned for a moment before he said, "It must have been forced by someone. The existence of such a large sea creature will definitely cause panic or cause countless people to go out to sea to search for it. Perhaps some countries have already discovered it, but have been trying to hide it. So when Lippi accidentally saw it, they asked him to sign a confidentiality agreement and came forward to clarify that it was a rumor. "
Mo Qiong nodded and said, "That's right. Since that's the case, what's the point of you finding him? You will also be like Lippi, unable to admit that you have found the so-called deep-sea behemoth, and you will not get any fame or fortune from it. "
Zhang He shook his head and said, "I know, but this is not a matter of fame and fortune. This is to prove myself!"
"Even if it can't be made public, at least I saw it with my own eyes. That's enough. Exploring the mysteries and grandeur of the sea is the pursuit of a navigator with dreams. "
"Regardless of whether it exists or not, I firmly believe that it exists, and I will put in the effort to find it. The day I find it will be the day I prove myself."
Mo Qiong smiled. It was indeed as his friend had said. This guy was really chuunibyou. Perhaps he had been addicted to adventure stories and hot-blooded manga ever since he was young.
People needed to set a goal for themselves and work hard for it. Then, life would have meaning.
However, people were different. Some people would be like Zhang He, willing to pursue a goal that did not exist in the eyes of others.
Some people, on the other hand, pursued reality and focused on reality. Zhang He's friend was like that.
"What is my goal?" Looking at Zhang He's shining eyes, Mo Qiong could not help but ask himself.
His goal was simple. Make money, make a lot of money. He could buy whatever he wanted, use whatever he wanted, and play whatever he wanted.
His family did not lack money, and he could enjoy life.
Deep-Sea behemoth? It was indeed very cool. It was an ancient species that was likely to have gone extinct long ago. It was rare and precious.
He could find it now, just throw something at it, and follow the direction.
But so what? Could it be eaten? Could it be exchanged for money? Not only would it not benefit him if he found it, but it would also cause him to be approached and asked to clarify the so-called rumors, just like Lippi.
Perhaps they were afraid that this precious species would be hunted and killed by some unscrupulous country, or perhaps they were afraid that curious people would go out to sea to search for it and be hunted down by the behemoth.
But no matter what the reason was, judging from Lippi's reaction, some country must have found it and chose to hide it.
Zhang He wanted to find it, just to satisfy his inner desire and realize his self-worth.
But why would Mo Qiong look for it? To realize his self-worth, he had to satisfy his desire for life first. He was not a rich second generation, so he had to make money first.
It was the same before he had the ability, and it was the same after he had the ability.
He did not need to have much fame and fortune, and he did not need to have so much money that he could affect the economy of a country. Because too much money was just a number, and too much money also came with social responsibility.
It was fine as long as he had enough money. After spending it, he could still have more. This kind of life was easier and happier than those so-called richest people.
However, now that he had the ability, this goal seemed to be within his reach.
Without the pressure, could this really be considered a pursuit?
Mo Qiong did not know. Maybe after he had money, he would have other ideas. But after all, he did not have money yet.
Looking at the storm outside, blowing the yacht all the way, Mo Qiong had a plan in his mind.
…
The sea was unpredictable, and the storm blew them all the way off course.
In the morning of the second day, everyone woke up from their rooms and found that it was already calm outside.
The storm was already far away, but Zhang He's yacht had turned off the engine and was blown to an unknown sea.
He held the sea map for a while, and Mo Qiong appeared behind him and asked, "Where are we?"
Zhang He looked for a while and said, "We've already reached the Phillipine Sea and deviated from the route … Oh my god, why are we so far away?"
His yacht had actually entered the exclusive economic zone of the Phillipine Sea.
Mo Qiong looked and smiled. "It's okay, you're not a military yacht. We have the right to sail."
"That's true, but we're even further away from home," Zhang He said.
Mo Qiong said, "What's the hurry? I'm not in a hurry to go back anyway. We can't find the sea monster this time, but we can't lose our spirits. Since we're here, why don't we find a place to dive and have fun? "
His suggestion immediately received the support of Zhang He's friends.
After all, the so-called "finding sea monsters" was equivalent to "going out to sea to have fun" in their hearts. It was indeed too disappointing to go back so early because of a collision.
There was no choice. Since they had collided with Mo Qiong's yacht, they had to send him back.
However, since Mo Qiong took the initiative to have fun and was not in a hurry to go back, everyone was naturally very happy.
Zhang He did not mind. He saw clearly last night that his friends did not believe him.
The so-called "finding sea monsters" this time was simply a joke. If he wanted to do it seriously, he would have to work hard himself. This time, it was just for fun.
"Zhang He, you're very ambitious, but real pursuits can't be achieved in a day. There's still plenty of time in the future," Mo Qiong said with a smile.
Zhang He also smiled. "I know. Anyway, after colliding with your yacht, I'm planning to go back. I won't look for it first. Since you're not in a hurry, I don't mind either. Everyone can have fun if they want. I won't force you. "
"That's right! We're going out to sea for fun. The thing you're looking for doesn't have a specific location, so we won't discourage you. Things like dreams, just leave it to fate, "his friends said.
Zhang He smiled and said, "Leave it to fate! It's fate that we were blown here by the wind and waves. Everyone, do whatever you want. "
"Little Mo, you can do whatever you want. There's food and drink, just take whatever you want."
As he said that, he let everyone discuss while he went to check if the hull was damaged.
Mo Qiong nodded, poured himself a glass of water, and went up to the deck.
He leaned on the railing and enjoyed the warm sea breeze. He spat out some water, and saw the water turn and float towards the east.
He casually patted it down and basically confirmed that the yacht's current direction was in the opposite direction of the sea monster.
The yacht was drifting towards the southwest, while the sea monster was in the northeast.
The Philubin Sea was the largest and deepest sea in the world. Most of it was international waters, and a small part of it was the territorial waters or exclusive economic zones of the surrounding countries.
The big pearl that Mo Qiong was looking for was in the exclusive economic zone of the Philubin Sea, close to the territorial waters. In theory, foreign ships needed the permission of the coastal countries to harvest it.
Last night, after experiencing a huge storm, the yacht turned off its engine and drifted with the waves.
Mo Qiong saw that the yacht was drifting towards the south, so he added more force.
He found a place in the lower cabin to blow air. His speed was not fast, but it was not slow either.
He let the air in the cabin push against the hull and accelerate it to this place. The storm was already blowing the yacht towards the south, so he only brought the yacht to the west.
Although it was easy for the air to escape, he had to get up and adjust the direction midway. Occasionally, he would blow air, and with the help of the wind and waves, he brought the yacht to the vicinity of the big pearl.
It didn't matter if they didn't have the permission to harvest it. In the vast sea, there would be no supervision. As long as they didn't harvest in large quantities or show off their precious harvests.
Other than themselves, no one would know or pursue the matter.
