As she bent down to pick up the little turtle and take it into the sea, it dodged her and splashed directly into the water.
Seeing this, Jiang An smiled and followed closely behind, jumping in.
"Come on, little turtle, stay right behind me, don't stray too far!" I said to it in my mind.
After she finished speaking, she swam directly to the seabed. Today was also unusually different from the seabed; the usual schools of small fish and shrimp were nowhere to be seen, and it was unusually quiet.
Upon seeing this, Jiang An became extremely cautious, gripping the knife tightly in his hand.
At first, she would occasionally glance at the little turtle behind her, but as time went on, she became more and more at ease.
Suddenly, "bang!" Jiang An was attacked, but the little turtle behind her reacted quickly and bit her.
She swiftly dodged, then swiftly slashed with her knife, cutting off a giant octopus tentacle in one stroke. She then realized it was just that—an octopus tentacle. Soon, the tentacle lunged at her.
Jiang An rushed forward instantly, and the little turtle also revealed its sharp teeth, tearing at the head of the giant octopus and spitting out a water arrow.
In a short while, the giant octopus was dealt with by a man and an animal.
[Ding! Octopus detected. Decompose it?]
"yes."
[Ding! Decomposition successful! Total harvest: 3 kg of octopus meat (Excellent grade)!]
The rewards from hunting large animals are getting smaller and smaller; now there aren't even octopus skins left!
After breaking it down, she put the octopus meat and a stone box directly into her backpack.
We encountered animals before even reaching the seabed, and they attacked us proactively, making it much more violent than usual.
Fortunately, she was able to handle the giant octopus; it was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Jiang An kept this lesson firmly in mind and would be 120% vigilant in the next exploration.
Of course, she didn't forget to praise the little turtle, after all, it had just put in a lot of effort.
After being praised by Jiang An, the little turtle became even happier.
Through this battle, she also understood how powerful the Cold Water Spirit Turtle was. It was very strong, especially since it could spew out a water arrow that emitted a chilling aura.
Jiang An and the little turtle continued their exploration of the seabed, cautiously observing their surroundings to prevent a repeat of what had just happened. They wanted to detect such creatures in advance rather than be ambushed by them.
They swam past coral reefs and encountered a sea snake in a trench.
This sea snake is the fourth large animal they have encountered so far.
After dealing with it, Jiang An decided to stop there and not go any further, because she had already gained enough for the day, with four treasure chests containing two iron and two stones. Although it was dangerous, the rewards were equally great; she rarely encountered so many large animals that dropped treasure chests.
Suddenly, the little turtle broke away from the group and swam towards the trench in front of them.
Upon seeing this, Jiang An hurriedly shouted in his mind, "Little turtle, come back quickly, come back!"
It had been exceptionally obedient the whole way, never doing anything Jiang An forbade. I don't know what happened this time, it actually acted on its own.
Jiang An felt very strange and quickly chased after him, wanting to find out what had happened.
"Delicious, delicious!" came the little turtle's voice in her ear.
Immediately afterward, the little turtle swam straight into the trench. Jiang An's heart tightened, worried that the little turtle might encounter danger.
Just then, the little turtle poked its head out of the trench, with something in its mouth, and excitedly swam towards Jiang An.
Jiang An looked closely and saw that it was a transparent, square-shaped object.
