Chapter 1483: Chapter 1483-a good swimmer drowned in water
When Zhou Jing looked up, she just happened to meet the irascible Bob’s eyes. She couldn’t help but panic. The giant sea turtle waved its short limbs and swam directly above her, its black eyes staring at her with interest. In the water a little further away, Abby was also waving her hands, trying to attract the irascible Bob’s attention. She had tried her best, and she had also succeeded in drawing him away, but he had turned around and swam back. It was hard to fathom the thoughts of wild animals. In the sea, she could only rely on her movements instead of her voice, and she couldn’t get too close to it, which made it even more difficult. Zhou Jing looked down and saw a bite on the back of the fish tail. The sea eel sneakily swam next to her tail, waiting for an opportunity to strike. The bite just now was just a test, and the taste was very strange. The sea eel was still observing the extraordinarily large creature. Whether she was alive or dead, it didn’t mind biting a few pieces of meat from her. In fact, Zhou Jing still had enough time at this time. As long as she could keep calm and choose the right direction to escape, there was a great chance of retreating. However, few people could remain calm in this situation. Even a senior free-diver with a heavy fishtail on his legs might not be able to remain as calm as usual. Zhou Jing also panicked, and her mind was in a mess. She regretted that she shouldn’t have insisted on going into the water during her period. She regretted that she shouldn’t have regarded work as more important than her life. She regretted that she didn’t find this sea eel in time. She regretted … She regretted a lot of things, but the most regretful thing was that she should not have been overconfident. In the past, there had been no problems during her period, but it did not mean that there would be no problems every time. This was a problem of probability. It was like playing Russia roulette with a revolver loaded with one bullet. No one would be lucky forever. Those who were good at swimming would drown in the water. The sea was not like the land, and any negligence or accident could lead to a disaster. At this moment, many people and many things flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern. Her brain sensed danger and secreted a large amount of hormones to deal with the enemy. The hormones increased her reaction speed and allowed her muscles to exert more strength. These were very useful on land, but the brain did not know that she was in the water. The hormones made her stronger and faster, but at the same time, it also made her consume more oxygen. Her lungs felt like they were being roasted by fire, while the other parts of her body were as cold as ice. No, no, no! It was not the time to give up yet! She couldn’t make a calm judgment and chose a direction based on her intuition. She shook her fishtail with all her strength and fled in that direction. Her movements were too violent, and the water caused by her huge fishtail hit the bottom of the tank, stirring up a large amount of sand and mud, making the sea water muddy. The sea eel was enraged by her actions. It shot out like lightning and bit at her. She twisted her waist with all her might and dodged the bite at the critical moment, causing the sea eel to bite nothing. Just as she felt a little happy, she suddenly felt the fish tail sink. When she looked back, she saw the irascible Bob biting the end of her fishtail. There was no malice in his black eyes, as if he was joking with her, but she really couldn’t take such a joke. She had just avoided the sea eel, but she had sent the tail to the turtle’s mouth. The irascible Bob couldn’t refuse the thing that had come to his door. Even though he didn’t know what it was, he stuck his head out and took a bite. The irascible Bob was the size of a small grinding stone and weighed at least 100 kilograms. It was like a big rock falling on her fishtail. No matter how much strength she had, she couldn’t shake her fishtail off. Abby knew that Zhou Jing was in trouble, but her own situation was not good either. She had consumed a lot of physical strength and oxygen in the process of pressing her ears and luring the turtle away. The wise choice was to float up to breathe first, and then dive down to help clear the turtle. Even if it combined the strength of the two of them, they might not be able to get rid of the turtle. As long as it did not let go, they had almost no way to do anything, not to mention that there was a ferocious sea eel next to them. However, at least half a minute had pa.s.sed since she floated up to take a breath and then swam down to Zhou Jing’s side. Zhou Jing might not be able to hold on for another half a minute. Saving people had to be done within one’s means. If she rashly went to save people now, she was likely to lose her life as well. She hesitated for a second or two, and her son’s and Zhou Jing’s faces flashed in her mind. If they were in different positions, would Zhou Jing save her? This was an unsolvable problem. No one would know the answer until the end. In the end, she gritted her teeth and decided to dive down to save Zhou Jing. She knew that she was being stupid. They were just colleagues, not friends, but she hoped that if she was in danger in the future, Zhou Jing would also risk her life to save her. Head down and feet up, she swam to Zhou Jing at the fastest speed and accurately grabbed Zhou Jing’s hand. Then, she turned around and pulled Zhou Jing up. Zhou Jing’s mind was now in chaos. Her vision was blurred, her eyes were extremely protruding, and her lungs were about to explode. It was as if there was a demon whispering in her heart, telling her that as long as she opened her mouth, she would not have to suffer this torture. Her hand was grabbed by Abby, and the unconscious Zhou Jing was like a drowning person who had grabbed a life-saving straw, using all her strength to hold it tightly. Not only did Abby fail to pull Zhou Jing up, but she was also pulled down by Zhou Jing’s struggling movements. An ominous thought filled Abby’s mind, but Zhou Jing’s grip was so strong that her nails were deeply embedded in her skin. At this time, it was impossible to break free from Zhou Jing’s hand. Baby, I’m sorry … Mommy loves you …” Abby said goodbye to her son in despair. She regretted it. She should have been more cruel and wise. She shouldn’t have tried to be a hero, but it was too late. She didn’t know if it was an illusion caused by the lack of oxygen, but she seemed to see a strange light and shadow swimming at a high speed not far away. The light and shadow were some kind of transparent thing shuttling through the sea, as if a part of the sea was empty, but it was not filled with air, but something similar to gla.s.s. Due to the different light penetration rate, light was refracted at the edge, so it could be vaguely seen. What was even more surprising was that the ball of light seemed to be human-shaped, but the lower half was like a fish’s body. It moved as fast as lightning towards the water pipe above the tank, and the seawater was stirred up by the ball of light. It was impossible for a human to swim at such a speed in the sea, unless they were holding a torpedo. A series of bubbles came out of Zhou Jing’s mouth and nose. The lack of oxygen had made her brain unable to fully control her body. Abby’s eyes widened and she tried to maintain her remaining consciousness. She could already feel that the power from Zhou Jing’s hand had weakened. Perhaps she could get rid of Zhou Jing’s hand and do this, which might make her feel guilty for the rest of her life. But now, she only wanted to live and see her son. Suddenly, something swooped down at high speed from above, pa.s.sing through the water that was only a meter away from Abby. Are they divers? The divers had discovered the two of them in danger and had come to save them? No, that’s impossible. The divers had already moved to other positions to clean the tank walls. This was routine work, and they weren’t wearing any communication earpieces, so it was impossible for them to know. Abby saw another mermaid, with skin as white as snow and long hair as green as seaweed, as beautiful as an Angel, and a strong and flexible long fishtail. What was going on? Who was this? Abby could not believe her eyes, because she knew that there was no third mermaid cosplayer in the ocean Hall, and there were only two sets of mermaid clothes prepared. However, her slow brain could no longer think much. She saw that the new mermaid did not slow down at all. It turned 180 degrees in the water, and its wide tail whipped the irascible Bob heavily. The power was so great that the giant sea turtle lost consciousness and hit the bottom of the sea like a cannonball. With a m.u.f.fled thump, the turtle sh.e.l.l first hit the reef, and even the reef was smashed into pieces. It then hit into the sea sand, splas.h.i.+ng up a large amount of sand and stone chips, and the sea was in chaos. Immediately after, a powerful palm held Abby’s other hand and quickly brought her and Zhou Jing up.
