Chapter 209 Finally met the big guy
Because as far as he could see, under the bright moonlight, it was not a human hand at all, but like the claws of some kind of animal. But it was too far away, and Li Xiang couldn't see clearly its underwater body. He didn't know what kind of sea monster it was.
An ordinary person would most likely mistakenly think that someone is drowning, rush to the rescue, and then be eaten.
Li Xiang dodged his figure and stepped into the water. He was very curious about what the hell it was. His IQ was quite high. The acting is quite realistic.
He was not afraid at all. As a seventh-level transcendent, with a top speed of Mach 5, even if he couldn't defeat him, he could easily escape. Although his combat power in the water is greatly reduced.
Li Xiang was extremely fast and arrived at the black figure in the blink of an eye. He circled around the black figure constantly.
It's not that he's afraid of monsters attacking him, but that once he slows down, he'll fall into the water. The reason why he can walk on the water and cross some straits is purely because he is fast enough.
System: "The 16th-level mutated creature Phantom Mirage Crocodile has been detected."
"It's actually a saltwater crocodile? This size is rare." As he got closer, Li Xiang discovered that it turned out to be a saltwater crocodile, with a body length of seven or eight meters and an estimated weight of more than 1,000 kilograms. Even among saltwater crocodiles, He is also a big guy.
The saltwater crocodile was originally proud of Li Xiang's trick, but it never expected that Li Xiang was so fast that it was confused.
With prey in sight, it will naturally no longer pretend to be a human being drowning, but will be ready to pounce at any time and roll in death.
Unfortunately, it couldn't lock Li Xiang's position, so it dived and lay dormant.
Li Xiang originally wanted to hit it with a black iron mountain stick, but the crocodile was very smart and hid in the sea. The resistance of the sea water was too great, so the stick probably wouldn't be effective.
Sword energy may not be powerful enough. Ordinary rifles, when fired underwater, have an effective range of no more than one meter.
"It seems that I can only use my body as bait." Li Xiang stopped running. The black mountain black armor on his body was quite heavy, so he fell into the water and sank downwards.
The saltwater crocodile saw the opportunity and immediately shot towards Li Xiangyou like an arrow. Its small eyes flashed with excited green light, preparing to perform its special skill - death roll. No matter how powerful this human being is, when he gets into the water, It also has to be dealt with.
The seven to eight meter long giant crocodile pounced, opened its bloody mouth, and bit it...
Well, the crocodile was dumbfounded.
I saw that the human grabbed its upper and lower jaws with two hands, and despite its four to five thousand kilograms of bite force, it was stunned that it could not bite down.
What it didn't know was that it had kicked the alloy steel block this time.
This saltwater crocodile has used this deception method to eat many humans. No matter how powerful the humans are, even if they come in a small boat, they will be overturned by it, and then the bite force is as high as four to five thousand kilograms, and then they will be knocked over by it. Combined with the death roll, basically no one can escape.
However, this time, what it encountered was an extraordinary being, or a pervert among extraordinary beings. It had a strength of one hundred thousand kilograms, so how could it bite it?
He wanted to roll over to death, but was pulled hard by Li Xiang, causing his upper and lower jaws to separate.
Blood dyes the sea water red.
System: "Congratulations to the host, for killing the 16th-level mutant creature Phantom Mirage Demonic Crocodile, you will be rewarded with 1,600 achievement points, three 8th-level mutant elixir Golden Leaf Crocodile Mouth Flower, and a set of 14th-level extraordinary item Purple Mirage Armor."< br>
Li Xiang swam hard, surfaced, and then pushed hard, taking the crocodile weighing more than 1,000 kilograms into the sky. He came to the beach, took out the White Fang dagger, and skinned the crocodile.
It would be such a waste to throw away such good crocodile skin. As for the crocodile meat, this crocodile is too big, so the meat is probably not tasty and not easy to cook.
After dealing with the crocodile, he flipped his hands and took out the set of purple mirage armor. It was completely purple with beautiful scales on it. It felt a bit girly and suitable for girls to wear.
This set of extraordinary armor is of a higher grade than his Black Mountain Black Armor. In addition to the basic armor protection function, it also has two extraordinary attributes, "water avoidance" and "mirage".
"Avoiding water" means being able to breathe underwater. Li Xiang thought that this armor should be able to filter seawater and only allow oxygen to penetrate.
Many modern technological materials, such as some membranes, can also do this.
From a molecular weight point of view, water molecules are lighter than oxygen molecules, but their structure (volume) is larger than oxygen molecules. Water molecules are "V" shaped, while oxygen molecules are linear, so many filters can filter Water molecules fall out and air molecules "leak" out.
There is oxygen in seawater, which comes from many sources, such as dissolved in the air, such as seaweed or some algae, and produced through photosynthesis. In addition, there is research that oxygen can also be produced through polymetallic nodules in deep-sea environments. These nodule materials can electrolyze seawater and produce oxygen under special conditions.
It’s a function that can be achieved by technological items. It’s not surprising that extraordinary armor possesses this attribute.
As for the "Mirage" attribute, it can create an illusion to confuse the enemy.
"This armor is very good. I can go deep sea diving in the future."
Li Xiang has always felt that there should be more potential mutant beasts under the sea, more powerful, and there may be some potential saints, because the behemoths on the seabed are much larger than those on land, but with his current ability, he cannot go into the water.
Even if he went, his combat effectiveness was not strong, so he never went into the water.
But with this armor, diving into the deep sea is no longer a problem.
Just as he said, he immediately changed his clothes, put away the handsome and cool Black Mountain Black Armor, and replaced it with this set of rather girly Purple Mirage Armor.
This set of purple mirage armor is actually quite slim. It sticks closely to the surface of the body, can outline curves, and is relatively thin.
Unlike the Black Mountain Black Armor, although it is close-fitting, it is not slim-fitting and has some cool decorations on its appearance, making it look thick and domineering.
He jumped and fell into the sea like a stone, sinking slowly to the bottom of the sea. It must be said that the underwater world is magnificent and wonderful, with many corals, stones, sand, sea fish, seaweed...
"This must be a sea urchin, right?" Li Xiang found large tracts of sea urchins around him, so he was very happy to pick them up and store them in the system warehouse. It's like no money.
Sea urchin is naturally delicious. It can be eaten raw, or used to make steamed sea urchin eggs, sea urchin fried rice, grilled and cooked into porridge. Then I also found some crabs, green lobsters, etc., picked them up and threw them into the system warehouse.
Especially the little green dragons, I picked up a few particularly big ones, thirty to forty centimeters long, weighing at least two to three pounds each. There is no need to buy new year’s goods.
Although it will die if you put it in the system warehouse, the system warehouse has the characteristic of "preserving freshness". Whatever you put in it will be the same when you take it out. In other words, when cooking, it is equivalent to freshly killed food, so you don't have to worry about it becoming stale.
"This kind of fish is not bad. It looks delicious. Take it back and give it to the kittens to try." Li Xiang reached out to catch it. I went to catch it, but I didn't catch it.
The fish was so slippery and so nimble that it could escape with a flick of its tail.
Then, Li Xiang learned his lesson. When he saw a fish again, he quietly approached it, and then shot the ice sword energy, instantly piercing it. The fish turned upside down and was caught by him and successfully put into the warehouse.
He found snapper, red-spotted grouper, and squid in the coral reefs, especially snapper and red-spotted grouper. They are relatively rare, have delicious taste and high nutritional value, and are often frequented by high-end restaurants.
There are also some unknown fish and shrimps, some of which are colorful and I dare not catch them for fear of being poisonous.
Fish are like mushrooms, the more showy they are, the more attention they deserve.
He felt that if he wanted to catch the sea, he should buy some relevant books to avoid catching poisonous fish. Jiang Cai'er is probably good at this, but Jiang Cai'er doesn't have time, and she's not good at water fighting either.
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
Li Xiang is not good at water fighting either. In sea water, the attack range of his ice sword energy is very limited. If it exceeds one meter, it will be ineffective.
Then the black iron mountain stick was taken out, and it was even worse, the resistance was too great. Looks like I need to buy a professional harpoon gun.
He wanted to use the magic of walking, but he suddenly found that it was not easy to use the magic under water. It might be limited to land. Or, after he became a saint, he could fly and could also activate it in the sky, because after the magic of walking, There is also a higher form, and after becoming a saint, it will naturally transform into the method of flying.
Fortunately, Li Xiang was very strong and his swimming speed was not low. He could swim more than ten meters in one second. However, as he swam, he found that the deeper he got into the sea, the harder it was to swim and the speed also decreased. reduce.
Unknowingly, he estimated that he was at least three to four hundred meters below the surface of the sea. The pressure of the surrounding seawater was very high. Although he could still breathe freely, he was unable to swim. He could only swim five or six meters per second, which was naturally faster than ordinary divers. Much more, but for Li Xiang who was used to speeds of several Mach, it was extremely unaccustomed.
If you get to a deeper sea, such as a few thousand meters deep, you probably won't be able to swim at all.
A big fish with a body length of two to three meters appeared, ignoring Li Xiang's presence, and swam past him seven or eight meters away.
System: "Sixth-level mutant bluefin tuna detected."
Li Xiang immediately became confused and "repeated his old tricks" and slowly approached, planning to get within one meter and give it a hard blow. This fish is very expensive. It is so big. It is estimated that it is 300 to 400 kilograms, at least. Worth tens of millions.
Because there were news reports that in 2019, at a tuna auction in Japan's Toyosu market, a bluefin tuna weighing 278 kilograms was sold for a sky-high price of 207 million yen, equivalent to more than 9 million yuan.
In the eyes of many experts, bluefin tuna is the "Hermes" of tuna, the top and top food.
The fish in front of Li Xiang was bigger than the one at the auction.
If he catches it, of course Li Xiang will not sell it, but plans to take it back and eat it. Tuna sashimi is an unparalleled delicacy.
As a result, as soon as it got within three meters, the tuna swung its body and ran away like an arrow.
Tuna is one of the fastest fish in the world, with an average swimming speed of about 80 kilometers per hour. Bluefin tuna is born for speed and has strong horsepower. Li Xiang struggled to catch up, but okay, he gave up. Under water, he really couldn't swim these bottom fish.
Moreover, the fish does not run in a straight line, but moves left and right, up and down, turning as desired. As a human with four limbs, he just turns around, floats up, dives, turns left, and turns right. Compared with the fish, it is not the same dimension. .
"Are there any exercises suitable for underwater use?"
Li Xiang returned to the shore and lay down on the beach to rest. He called up the system panel and searched for the appropriate secret technique.
There are naturally some exercises and secret techniques, but except for one "Wave Riding Technique", which has a relatively low threshold, the rest are either expensive or have limited training conditions. For example, some require water attribute talents.
Li Xiang thought that his ice sword energy should have something to do with water energy, so he exchanged it for the wave-riding technique, which cost 10,000 achievement points, and then exchanged it for a water escape technique, which cost 80,000 achievement points.
The balance of the achievement point account is only about 210,000.
The Wave-Treading Technique was really simple. Li Xiang learned it as soon as he got started, and he mastered it in less than an hour.
The Wave Treading Technique is different from the Divine Walking Technique.
Although the Divine Walking Technique can also move forward on the waves, it relies on speed, which means it must "move". The speed cannot be slowed down, otherwise you will fall into the water.
As for the Wave-Treading Technique, he can stand still and directly control the waves to "surge" him forward. You can even sit or lie on the waves. Of course, this speed is relatively slow, and it is a skill that allows you to "play in the water leisurely".
Li Xiang gave it a try. In the deep sea, the "Wave Riding Technique" can also control the undercurrent, which is far easier and more comfortable than swimming by himself. However, the speed is still not fast enough, and the turning is not as smooth as the fish. I guess he still can't catch it. Serve the tuna.
He returned to the shore and practiced the "Water Escape Technique". Well, maybe his physical attributes didn't match and he couldn't learn it.
It's not that I'm stupid and can't understand, it's that I can't practice it at all.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, Li Xiang stopped fussing. He changed into the Black Mountain Black Armor, and with a flash of his body, he rushed towards the Strait of Malacca with a slight sonic boom.
