Chapter 268 Flashlight (Happy New Year)
It is not the peak season for diving with Naguo Island.
This can also be seen from the business of the diving shop in recent times. Zhang Heng and Han Lu are the second batch of tourists coming to dive in the past week, and as far as Nelly knows, the first batch of people will take a plane back at noon today.
So if nothing unexpected happens, the three of them are the only divers in this sea area. It is precisely because of this Nelly that the figure just now belongs to Han Lu, because there is no fourth person in this sea area.
In other words, Han Lu is probably less than two or three meters away from them, so Neri rekindled hope, and she even subconsciously ignored the problem of the black shadow moving very quickly.
In fact, that was not the movement speed that humans could achieve underwater, but at this moment, Neri's heart was filled with joy in finding Han Lu. Even if she noticed the unreasonable movement speed, she would probably use ocean currents to explain it. It is precisely because of this that Han Lu may need their help more.
So Neri then gestured to Zhang Heng to follow her, but then she saw Zhang Heng reaching out and making a stop at her. Then Zhang Heng clenched his fists and crossed his chest, and then pointed his fists in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.
This means danger in diving gestures.
Since Neri saw the black shadow, Zhang Heng would certainly not miss it. Unlike Nelly's shocking glance, Zhang Heng's eyes captured the movement of the black shadow. Although it was only less than a second, Zhang Heng had already recognized what that thing was.
Yes, that black shadow is the half-human and half-mermaid monsters he encountered in that mysterious and hazy seaside town in the trial of the shadow set.
Zhang Heng didn't expect that he could see these monsters again in the real world.
Moreover, unlike Zhang Heng's situation in the town at that time when he was invincible, they actually changed the clumsy movement method on the land before and became like fish in water.
After the copy of Hei Sail, Zhang Heng's water quality has been well trained. At least he can kill most people who do not rely on the sea to make a living. However, he still cannot compare to this kind of thing that changes at the genetic level. They are the product of the combination of humans and monsters, breaking the reproductive isolation between species.
It already has many biological characteristics of marine life. The things that Nelly saw before were like the flippers worn by divers were their real feet. Compared with divers, they did not need oxygen cylinders to move underwater. They could breathe directly on their own gills, and their movement speed underwater was at least twice as fast as on land.
On the contrary, Zhang Heng's skills are not as flexible as on land. Every move will feel the resistance from the sea water. At the same time, he also needs diving equipment to stop underwater, so it is not so easy for him to gain the upper hand here.
If it were just one, Zhang Heng could barely deal with it, but if they were as many as in the seaside town before, it would be a big trouble.
This is also why Zhang Heng is so vigilant now.
However, after seeing Zhang Heng's gesture, Nelly mistakenly thought that the other party was just nervous because of the sudden red tide and was determined to rise. Nelly could understand Zhang Heng's current mood. This was originally her choice. However, before seeing "Han Lu", now that she knew that "Han Lu" was by her side, and then asked Nelly to give up looking and directly lead Zhang Heng to rise, it would be difficult for her to get through this hurdle in her heart, especially when the gas volume in the gas cylinder was still sufficient.
Therefore, while trying to calm Zhang Heng down, Nelly wanted to tell the latter that Han Lu was nearby through gestures.
But Zhang Heng still put on a dangerous posture to her, and Neri was a little impatient. I wonder if it was because of the red sea water around her that made her more irritable than usual. Especially when she saw the flash of the flashlight coming from a distance, Neri immediately excitedly turned on her flashlight and shone it to the opposite side. After that, she planned to swim there.
But as soon as he turned around, he was pulled by Zhang Heng, and the suppressed anger in Nelly immediately rushed up.
She didn't know what the relationship between Zhang Heng and Han Lu was, but since the two of them went to the island of Henna, they must be definitely not as simple as ordinary friends. As a result, when Han Lu was in danger, Zhang Heng not only did not want to rescue her companions, but instead stopped her again and again.
Neri put herself at Han Lu's angle, and now she would definitely feel extremely chilled, so she broke free from Zhang Heng's arm in anger and swam towards the place where the flashlight came.
At this moment, her heart was completely filled with anger, and she even forgot to let Zhang Heng follow her behind her. In fact, there was no other thought in her head now, and only the idea of moving forward was left, as if she was completely possessed.
Nelly's diving skills are still very good. In addition, she is always alert to Zhang Heng's surroundings. Nelly just wanted to find Han Lu, so the two of them quickly separated in the red sea water.
Zhang Heng was a little helpless. He noticed Nelly's emotional abnormality, but he didn't do much underwater, so he couldn't knock Nelly out directly. As for Zhang Heng himself, he didn't know whether it was because he had not much of his feelings left or because of other reasons, but he seemed to be immune to the surrounding red sea water.
Moreover, after losing Han Lu and Nelly one after another, Zhang Heng became more and more calm.
Because he knew that those half-man and half-mermaid monsters were coming to him, just like in the strange dream and the trial of the shadow set, the other party's target will always be him.
However, Zhang Heng did not give up looking for the whereabouts of the two women, because he was on vacation in Japan, most of his props were not brought with him, and even if he brought them, it would be difficult to use underwater. After all, there was no Lego here for him to assemble, and the arrow of Paris could not be shot underwater.
However, Zhang Heng was glad that he also brought [filter] and [Betty's Shell]. These two props were in the pocket of his diving suit's thighs and were sealed with Velcro.
Zhang Heng opened his pocket and took out the [filter] from it first, which is also the equipment he needs most now.
The field of view within a range of 300 meters is not affected by factors including light, natural environment, etc.
This attribute doesn't seem very good and has no lethality, but anyone who has played real-time strategy games basically knows the importance of vision, especially in an environment where you can't see anything clearly.
Zhang Heng took a deep breath, took off the mirror, stuffed the [filter lens] into it, and then brought it back to the mirror, raised his head slightly, pressed the upper part of the mirror with his fingers, and then started exhaling with his nose. Soon the bubbles gathered on the upper part of the mirror, squeezed the sea water out from under the mirror. After repeating twice, the sea water in the mirror was drained.
