Chapter 420
After Zhang Lin came back to his senses, he found that in the camera on the other side, the wind seemed to be picking up on the sea again.
He asked Yang Lusi, "Did you see any special people appear at the Archaeological Institute?"
Yang Lusi thought for a moment and shook her head.
"Senior Brother is talking about the Thunder-Listening clan, right? I don't seem to have seen any strangers."
"But the Archaeological Institute is too big, it's possible not to have met them."
Zhang Lin gave a hum; he felt that in this Ancient City of Jingjue team of Yang Lusi's, there might also be people from the Thunder-Listening clan mixed in.
It's just that until now, except for that Chang San, the others are like rats in a hole, not even showing their tails, which makes Zhang Lin feel a bit interesting.
Hearing Zhang Lin's guess, Yang Lusi said indifferently, "If he follows me, he certainly won't get any information; let him follow if he wants."
"It's you, Senior Brother, who needs to be more careful..."
Before Yang Lusi finished speaking, Zhang Lin saw a black shadow flash by in the live stream of the archaeological team.
The shadow was very large, leaping high out of the sea and falling quickly again.
But because it was too dark on the sea, the specific appearance couldn't be seen clearly.
With Zhang Lin's eyesight, he could only vaguely see that the shadow seemed to be humanoid!
He said with some surprise, "What is this thing? It jumps as high as a dolphin!"
Yang Lusi looked at the live stream barrage and found that many night-owl friends who hadn't slept had also seen it.
Everyone was discussing what that shadow was.
【Damn, did you guys see that?】
【Saw it, a shadow leaped out of the sea and fell back in!】
【What is that thing, a dolphin or a shark?】
【Neither looks like it, it looks more like a person!】
【A person?! No way, that's too scary? What kind of person can jump so high on the sea?】
【Maybe... not a person... a mermaid?】
Many people saw this black shadow, and naturally the people on the ship noticed it too.
Since the wind and waves picked up, Zhang Tianshi Zhang had been paying extra attention to the movement on the sea surface.
He knew that with radar detection, generally no ship would approach them blatantly.
But if someone abandoned a ship and swam over, on the cruise ship's radar, people would only be treated as fish and wouldn't be specially marked.
Although there were waves on the sea, Zhang Tianshi Zhang knew not to underestimate others.
The world is full of strange people; there are people who have the ability to move freely in harsh sea environments!
Although that mysterious shadow came and went quickly, everyone didn't see it.
But with Zhang Tianshi Zhang's hearing, he heard the sound of something falling into the water.
Listening to the sound, that thing was not light in weight!
He patted Fatty and Tianzhen, who were about to fall asleep.
The two woke up suddenly and looked around as if in a stress response.
Fatty shouted, "What's wrong, what's wrong, what happened?"
Zhang Tianshi Zhang immediately reassured, "Nothing happened, it seems something appeared around the ship."
Hearing this, Tianzhen stood up, leaned over the railing, and looked out into the sea.
From his perspective, he could see large waves starting to roll on the sea surface.
But the sea surface was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
Around the ship's hull, no suspicious creatures were seen either.
He turned back to Zhang Tianshi Zhang and said, "Zhang Tianshi, did you see wrong? It seems there's nothing there."
Zhang Tianshi Zhang shook his head and asked Fatty, "Just now, that special forces member was patrolling, did he come over and say where we arrived?"
Fatty replied without thinking, "We're almost near a coral reef area. The treasure eye location pointed out by that Mr. Zhang seems to be a large coral reef area. It looks like we should be returning to the location of the shipwreck burial soon."
Zhang Tianshi Zhang nodded; there are many creatures in coral reefs, and this is a deep-sea area, so he always felt uneasy in his heart.
"Just now I heard the sound of a heavy object falling into the water; it seems something leaped out of the water and fell back down."
"Listening to that movement, the volume is not small; you'd better not sleep, perk up."
Hearing this, Fatty became curious. He stood up, leaned over the railing with Tianzhen, and looked down, but still found nothing.
The two leaned against the sea, facing Zhang Tianshi Zhang, and said, "There are many animals on the sea; it might be a whale or a dolphin or something. Zhang Tianshi, no need to be so nervous."
Zhang Tianshi Zhang nodded, but still took out a long dagger from the side.
This thing was sharp and was specially issued to them, the night watchmen, by the special forces team.
Zhang Tianshi Zhang originally wanted to remind Fatty and Tianzhen to hold their knives in their hands.
But when he looked up, he saw an extremely terrifying scene!
A monster with a face full of black scales leaped high; the entire face had no lips, only two rows of sharp teeth!
The upper body looked like a human, but the lower body had a fish tail; the neck was thick and bulging, as if it were breathing!
After that thing leaped out of the sea, two black-scaled arms like withered branches reached out, directly hugged Tianzhen's neck, and pulled him into the sea!
Splash—
The sound of the two falling into the water startled Fatty, who was on the side.
When he turned around and saw Tianzhen was gone, he immediately shouted, "Zhang Tianshi, Tianzhen fell into the water by accident!"
Zhang Tianshi Zhang ran over holding the dagger and pushed Fatty away.
"It wasn't an accident, he was pulled down by a Merman!"
After speaking, his body leaped into the air, he kicked off the railing, and plunged into the seawater!
The sudden change startled Fatty.
He almost followed him down regardless, but then he realized that this was the ocean, and there were big waves on the sea!
With his swimming skills, going down would just mean drowning!
Fatty leaned over to look, and couldn't see the shadow of either Tianzhen or Zhang Tianshi Zhang, and he was so anxious that cold sweat broke out.
He immediately shouted, "Come quickly, enemy attack!"
This shout woke up everyone on the ship.
(Transfer group (3) 717 (2) 911 (9))
Captain Wang brought a few people over in just a few dozen seconds.
After clarifying the situation, Captain Wang immediately said, "Quick, throw the lifeboats and lifebuoys down!"
Whoosh—
Two lifeboats and several lifebuoys were thrown into the sea.
But on the sea surface, not even a shadow of a person could be seen!
At this moment, after Tianzhen was pulled into the sea by the Merman, he gulped down a large mouthful of seawater.
Before he could even take a deep breath, he was dragged hard into the deep sea by the Merman!
He felt his lungs were about to explode, and it wouldn't be long before he choked on water.
Just as he was about to fall into a coma, he suddenly saw a shadow swimming over.
Zhang Tianshi Zhang held the dagger and stabbed straight at the Merman's head!
While dodging, the Merman let go of Tianzhen and fought with Zhang Tianshi Zhang.
In the chaotic environment of the seabed, Tianzhen saw that Zhang Tianshi Zhang's clothes were torn by the Merman's sharp claws, and Zhang Tianshi Zhang seemed to have grown quite a bit taller.
As he was tending toward a coma, Tianzhen seemed to see a strange pattern appearing on Zhang Tianshi Zhang's body!
