Chapter 876: White Ball and Win by Lying Down
Chapter 876: Chapter 876: White Ball and Win by Lying DownXu Huo had been transported through the hatch into the aquarium, just like the man in the raincoat before him; he was thrown into the ocean without any protection.
Being submerged in the dark waters was almost like being in the dead of night, but the projection outside was less limited by light and clearly showed Xu Huo soaked in the water.
He seemed to have better luck than the raincoat man, as he didn’t encounter any Piranha Swarm upon entry, but as the host rotated the projection angle, a gigantic semi-transparent shark appeared not far from him.
From its appearance, it indeed bore some resemblance to pre-evolution sharks.
"As everyone knows," the host commented, "animals living in the deep sea often exhibit obvious signs of degeneration, such as colorless bodies. Usually, these characteristics are related to the animals’ living environments, and evolution occurs out of necessity. However, after global evolution began, marine fish also underwent some mutations."
"For example, this semi-transparent man-eating shark. Although they don’t live in deep waters, their bodies manifest this characteristic after mutation, making them the only fish in deep sea fauna to exhibit such changes. But after mutation, the skeletal hardness of the man-eating sharks has multiplied, and they have become more ferocious and aggressive. Sea World has compiled data on marine animal attacks, with man-eating sharks accounting for over fifty-three percent of all incidents."
"These mutated man-eating sharks not only have tough bodies and astonishing speed, but they also tend to appear in groups, making them difficult to capture and hunt... What we see now is a lead shark responsible for patrolling the environment. Judging from the width of the signal it emits, there are at least more than ten man-eating sharks following it!"
"The only flaw of this man-eating shark is the degeneration of their sensory system, so they need to be very close to detect their prey. Ah, it has already spotted Guest 313!"
Sharks primarily rely on the nerves and olfaction on the sides of their bodies rather than vision to remotely locate prey. The degeneration of their sensory system means that their range for
Actually, none of the players currently present had a clear direction for clearing the game, whether equating clearing the game with the final scoring of the show, or via rescuing or being rescued. Both could be methods of clearing, or they might be incomplete methods, which meant Xu Huo’s speculation he told Xiao Xianglin the day before might not be entirely wrong even without successfully clearing the game.
Because everyone was aware that pure friendship couldn’t be gained here; all related methods had to be tried.
"I don’t know either," Xu Huo replied. "If I did, I might have already cleared and left."
Regardless of whether they could gain friendship, one had to at least show the attitude needed to make friends.
Zhuang Mengtian lowered her head and fiddled with her watch, seemingly pondering something.
At that moment, Xu Huo reminded her, "I believe it would be best if you minimized messing with your watch."
Zhuang Mengtian looked up.
"If you’re strong enough, why would you need to attack someone while they’re asleep?"
Zhuang Mengtian’s expression shifted slightly, but she lifted her hand the next second, "I don’t understand what you’re saying."
"Don’t play dumb," You Si chimed in, "we came in the same car, do you think everyone else is a fool?"
Xu Huo hadn’t been sure if Zhuang Mengtian had tampered with anything on the train previously—after all, the whole train had been affected, and she wasn’t capable of that.
However, it was certain that she might have some kind of hypnotic prop or characteristic; its effects were quite strong, having worked on him at least.
