Chapter 230: Step Into an Unknown Island
After entering the water, Mcgee gradually adapted to the underwater vision, and the surroundings also became bright.
As he swam forward, he turned his head to look at the Giant Diving Crocodile, which was following behind him.
Mcgee was relieved. He and the Giant Diving Crocodile could be said to have only been looking for Bug’s bad friend before.
The goal was to maximize the benefits. It was not easy to become comrades.
Unknowingly, Mcgee had been swimming for nearly ten minutes. Some bubbles were coming out of the corner of his mouth, and he could not breathe.
Indeed, a different world could be seen underwater. There was no continuous smoke on the surface of the sea.
Moreover, the direction of the growth of the aquatic plants was continuously spreading toward the island.
The closer they were to the island, the denser the aquatic plants were.
It was just that they felt that they could not breathe…
“Hold on.” The Giant Diving Crocodile came to Mcgee’s side and gently supported him on its body.
“We just need to hold on in this direction to enter the island.” The Giant Diving Crocodile saw that Mcgee was about to die, so it decided to bring him to the surface.
Mcgee spat out a large mouthful of bubbles, but he still left himself with his last breath.
He communicated with the Giant Diving Crocodile through his mind. “No, as long as I float to the surface, it will be another world.”
“But…”
“No buts. Carry me forward.” Mcgee no longer expressed his stance.
He was using all his strength to maintain his consciousness. As long as he inhaled a mouthful of water, he would be buried deep in the ocean forever.
…
Cough, cough, cough.
Mcgee vomited a few mouthfuls of water, and then he woke up.
The Giant Diving Crocodile beside him finally relaxed.
After Mcgee woke up, he began to look around.
“This is?”
“This is the island,” said the Giant Diving Crocodile. Mcgee had just told him to swim forward.
Mcgee had lost consciousness, but he still held the Giant Diving Crocodile’s body tightly.
After five minutes, the Giant Diving Crocodile was already in despair. Even if Mcgee scolded it, it would still float to the surface.
But it stepped on the ground.
A ray of hope suddenly appeared. The Giant Diving Crocodile continued to carry Mcgee forward. It actually successfully landed on…
This island that no one had ever reached before!
It was the place that Qi Wei named the ‘Smoker Forest’.
After coughing a few mouthfuls of water, Mcgee took out his s.p.a.ce bag and poured himself a few mouthfuls of freshwater before recovering.
Then, he threw the water level to the Giant Diving Crocodile.
It also needed to wash off the salt on its body, otherwise, it would speed up the loss of water.
…
The plants on the island were all pale green, looking like they lacked light.
It was impossible to see what the outside world looked like. Even the sun in the sky was flickering.
“Can you sense the auras of other familiars?” Mcgee stood up straight and took out the Imperial Dragon Armor from his s.p.a.ce bag to put on.
“I can’t sense it, but I can smell some fishy smell.” The Giant Diving Crocodile did not have the ability to sense spiritual power like a guardian or a Spirit Fox.
However, its sense of smell was pretty good. The fishy smell meant that there was information about the death of a familiar.
No matter what, it was not a good sign.
The Giant Diving Crocodile was one of the few familiars that would not take the initiative to block in front of Mcgee when he was about to set off.
Instead, it followed behind Mcgee.
Originally, Mcgee thought that the familiars that would appear in the Smoker Forest would all be terrifying familiars. However, from what he had encountered just now, they were just some ordinary familiars.
Just like the ordinary forest, there were rabbit-type familiars and insect-type familiars at the bottom of the biological chain everywhere. Even carnivorous familiars were rare.
There were only a few level-12 Hunting Rabbits in the area. When they saw Mcgee and the Giant Diving Crocodile’s huge bodies, they immediately lost interest.
“Strange.”
In the world Mcgee originally lived in, there was also an isolated ecosystem called the Kangaroo Kingdom.
Its island had a large number of species that would be eliminated in other ecosystems. It was somewhat similar to the Smoker Forest.
Of course, a low-level beast did not mean that it was not dangerous.
Just as Mcgee was about to rest under a tree, a Striped Snake descended from the sky and aimed at his neck, wanting to bite down.
However, it was grabbed by the Giant Diving Crocodile and casually thrown into its mouth.
“Pah, it tastes terrible.” After chewing twice, the Giant Diving Crocodile spat out the Striped Snake.
The Snake was still alive. It twisted its broken body and ran away quickly, which made Mcgee feel disgusted.
“No matter which world it is, nature is worth fearing.”
In the forest, the compa.s.s was working again.
They kept heading south until they finally came to the end of the forest.
It was a stretch of endless cliffs.
“Have we been climbing the mountain just now?” Mcgee was very confused. Such a height was not rare in a hill city.
Instead, it was clearly an island. How could there be a bottomless abyss?
Then they climbed all the way up, but they were not so tired that they gasped for breath. It was incomprehensible.
“How should we get there?” Mcgee could not fly, and the Giant Diving Crocodile obviously did not have this ability.
From one side of the forest to the other side, the distance was at least three hundred meters. It was impossible to rely on strong jumping ability.
“We should still bring the Snow Spirit Fox with us.”
The Snow Spirit Fox could swim and move freely in the air. Other than the Snow Spirit Fox, there was no other subst.i.tute.
Just as Mcgee was in trouble, on the cliff, a Giant Eagle was wrestling with two relatively smaller birds.
In the valley, the other birds were also alarmed and began to fly.
“What a magnificent sight.”
Even in the familiar world, Mcgee was still shocked when he saw the scene of thousands of birds flying in the valley.
[Damask Bird]
[Level: 13]
[Attribute: Water]
[Description: A special familiar that has beautiful feathers and is good at both flying and swimming.]
The two birds that seemed to be at a disadvantage were actually unheard of water-type bird-type familiars.
In Mcgee’s knowledge, birds and water had always been at a point where they could not blend together. Only the legendary ‘duck-type’ familiars were water-related. Unfortunately, most of them did not have the ability to fly.
And the one fighting them was…
[Sky Condor]
[Level: 18]
[Attributes: Wind, water]
The difference in level was too big. Two against one would not be able to gain any advantage at all. It was only a matter of time before they were killed by the Sky Condor.
“Let’s think of a way to go around to the opposite mountain.” The Giant Diving Crocodile could not help but remind Mcgee when it saw that he was fully focused on observing the three birds fighting.
“Perhaps… we can use them.”
Mcgee could read the sad and angry emotions of the Damask Birds, while the Sky Condor was in a joking state.
He could roughly guess the reason. The Sky Condor had eaten the Damask Birds’ young as food, and now their parents were seeking revenge.
The Sky Condor did not care about its opponent at all. Instead, it kept dodging left and right, as if it was enjoying itself.
It seemed to be tired of playing and was about to gather the wind blades to cut the two annoying birds in front of it into minced meat.
“Hey!” Mcgee shouted into the canyon. “If I help you beat this annoying guy, can you fly us over the canyon?”
The birds were about the same size as Mcgee, and their claws looked very powerful. It should not be a problem to fly Mcgee over the cliff.
