Chapter 526 Strange and Delicious Odors
Han Shuo took the lead and waded through the seawater to the beach.
When he looked back, Fatty and Xiao Zhao ran up right behind him.
As soon as they got ashore, the two of them lay sprawled out on the beach, panting heavily.
As for the betting issue from the match, they had completely forgotten about who would get out first.
...
"Huff~ huff~ huff, I'm exhausted, I'm exhausted. Damn it, this 10-kilometer swim is equivalent to my annual activity level."
The fat man was breathing heavily as he complained.
He felt that being chased by a swarm of sharks this time was truly thrilling.
Han Shuo also felt exhausted. He slumped to the ground and began to catch his breath.
At this moment, seeing that the three were out of danger, the silver-haired man controlled the hang glider to descend from the sky.
He looked up and shouted, "Alright, Ninth Sister, no need to kill anymore!"
"good!"
The blond man was clearly not done yet; he raised his hand and fired another magazine of bullets before finally stopping.
...
Soon, all five people gathered on the beach.
Han Shuo looked at the seawater in front of him, which was dyed red, and felt a strange mix of emotions.
The shark fin lingered nearby for a few more moments, and seeing its prey had completely escaped, it finally began to leave, slowly disappearing into the distance.
At that moment, the blond man plunged headfirst into the seawater.
Just as the other four were looking on in confusion, she emerged from the sea carrying a shark carcass.
...
"boom!"
The blond man casually tossed the shark carcass onto the beach.
"Here you go, you must be tired after swimming all day. This big fish has lots of meat, eat up!"
Han Shuo and the other two stared at each other, wide-eyed...
It turns out that the blonde girl went to get them food. This little girl often has a sharp tongue, but she's actually a very kind person.
But is shark meat edible? To be honest, Han Shuo and the other two really didn't know.
"How about you try some?"
Xiao Zhao licked his lips; he was indeed hungry.
Without further ado, everyone began preparing to grill the shark.
Fatty, Xiao Zhao, and Jinfa were all busy and having a great time, chopping wood, cutting meat, and starting a fire...
Han Shuo and the silver-haired man stepped aside to discuss their situation.
...
"Brother Han, we have now arrived in the country where the old man is. The efficiency is not bad. The journey took 5 days. Hmm... if we also allow for the return trip, we have 20 days left."
After listening to what the silver-haired man said, Han Shuo nodded.
"Hmm, I remember this country isn't very big. Twenty days is enough for us to get close enough to assassinate that old man."
At this time, the country where everyone was located was one of the four ancient civilizations of the world.
Han Shuo had done a lot of research before coming here.
He knew that this country was very special; it could be said that 94% of its land was made up of desert.
Moreover, the entire region has an arid climate with little rainfall, and the temperature difference between day and night is quite large...
...
"Yes, 20 days is indeed a long time..."
The silver-haired man frowned and continued, "But Brother Han, we need to speed up our pace from now on."
"Because as far as I know, the old man is currently in the middle of a desert."
“There might be a sizable oasis there. If you want to get close to it, you… will probably have to expend a lot of effort.”
Han Shuo also agreed and replied.
"Yes, don't worry, Silver Hair. We were prepared for this when we came. If we can successfully kill the old man and help you obtain that radar equipment, then it will all be worth it."
"Great! I firmly believe we can succeed!"
The two exchanged a smile, spread out a map, and began to study the next route together.
...
Half an hour later, the shark meat was cooked.
Han Shuo walked over and took the slice of meat that the fat man handed him. The meat slice, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, was steaming hot, and the delicious aroma of the meat wafted towards him.
He didn't mind the heat and took a big bite.
It was his first time eating shark meat, and he felt a strong sense of novelty.
However, after taking just one bite, he froze on the spot, stopped chewing, and stared wide-eyed, unable to swallow.
He turned to look at Fatty and Xiao Zhao, whose expressions were similar to his.
...
The next second, all three of them simultaneously made a vomiting motion.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! This is awful!"
"Yeah, it smells delicious, but it tastes so strange!"
"A... stench of urine..."
Obviously, shark meat that hasn't undergone special processing and cooking is difficult for the average person to eat.
The three were unaware that shark meat contains a large amount of urea.
But what they didn't know was that the blonde knew.
At this moment, she was looking at the expressions of Han Shuo and the others, and bursting into laughter on the spot.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
...
The fat man immediately realized what was happening, even though he had been thanking the blond man profusely at first.
It turns out this little girl was so wicked; she brought the shark carcass over just to see them make a fool of themselves.
"snort!"
The fat man snorted unhappily and was about to go up to confront the blond man when he saw the blond man wave his hand and laugh as he tossed a few triangular pieces of meat over from behind.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore."
"Eat this. This is a shark fin. I just cut it off when I went into the sea. It should be delicious to you humans."
"real?"
The fat man pouted and asked uncertainly, fearing that the blond man might play another trick on them.
Despite his worries, he couldn't resist taking a bite because of his craving.
After taking a bite, a happy smile appeared on his face.
"Haha, it's really edible! It smells so good and tastes so delicious!"
As soon as the voice fell, Han Shuo and Xiao Zhao quickly gathered around.
Afterwards, the three of them enjoyed a hearty meal, and even after finishing, they still had a look of unsatisfaction on their faces.
Indeed, as the blonde said, shark fin is truly a rare delicacy!
...
After eating and drinking their fill, the group began searching for water in the forest ahead.
In countries with such desert territories, water is the most precious thing, and once you leave this forest, finding it again is not an easy task.
After the preliminary preparations were completed, the five hang gliders once again took off from the sky, this time heading straight for the oasis where the old man was.
However, that evening, the silver-haired man instructed everyone to stop in a city in the desert.
He said that this location was extremely close to the target location.
The old man's technological capabilities are not to be underestimated; there must be reconnaissance equipment deployed around the oasis.
Further on, in a desolate desert, flying in the air was all too obvious.
In order to avoid revealing their whereabouts, they will stay in place for the night and then proceed on foot the next day without using the glider!
The journey through the desert that follows will be the most arduous and difficult.
