Chapter 389 Using Oneself as Bait



After remaining silent for a while, he went out of his house again and headed straight for the beach.

The wind at sea was still strong, and wave after wave of huge waves crashed against the rocks on the shore, while the yachts moored behind the beach remained quietly standing on the sand, motionless.

"Damn it, I have to make a move as soon as possible, otherwise the longer I delay, the bigger the problem will become!" Lu Yuan stood on the shore looking at the dark ocean, making a firm decision in his heart.

So he quickly climbed onto the cruise ship and found a kayak in the cargo hold. He planned to use himself as bait to lure the giant beast.

He knew that doing so was extremely dangerous, but he really had no other choice. As long as this giant beast was not eliminated, their journey would not be peaceful.

Now he only hoped that there was only one such giant beast in the entire ocean. If there were a few more, he didn't know what he would do.

So Lu Yuan pushed the kayak all the way to the shore. He took a deep breath, tightened his clothes and life jacket, and then waved the rubber kayak, slowly paddling into the sea.

However, because the waves kept crashing against the shore, his initial progress was extremely slow. Coupled with the strong winds, the kayak would essentially roll backward with every stroke of Lu Yuan's paddle. He gritted his teeth and paddled desperately, finally beginning to move slowly forward. He dared not stop, because if he did, he would be immediately blown back to shore.

After much effort, Lu Yuan felt his arms were a little sore. Finally, he was more than a hundred meters away from the beach. The sea breeze here was no longer blowing towards the beach, but had become more strange, with wind blowing from almost all directions.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath and looked at the sea. There was no movement, so he quickly waved his kayak and continued paddling forward.

He finally rowed to a point about 300 meters away, where he could barely see the beach anymore. He dared not row any further. In the dim light of the night, if he lost his way, he might not be able to return. Although he had a dimensional space, the threats in the sea were not to be underestimated. Lu Yuan was determined to kill the giant beast, but he also did not want to die.

Having found a relatively calm and peaceful spot on the sea, Lu Yuan let the surrounding seawater and wind keep trying to capsize his small boat.

In order to let the giant beast smell his scent, Lu Yuan had to put his hand in the water and stir it constantly.

He had previously seen some footage of piranhas on an animal documentary channel.

Piranhas are social creatures, unlike ordinary fish. Ordinary fish will scatter and flee when frightened, but piranhas are the opposite. They are not interested in slow-moving fish and creatures, but prefer to hunt down creatures that have accidentally fallen into the water.

Once the creature falls into the water, it will keep splashing on the surface, which will arouse its aggressive desire. Then, these piranhas will follow the ripples and the direction of the sound to locate the prey, and then they will all rush at it. If there is blood on the creature, it will excite them even more.

Lu Yuan had also tested the bull before and felt that the giant beast's behavior was similar to that of a piranha, so he deliberately slapped the water's surface to attract the giant beast's interest and lure it over.

Lu Yuan kept reaching his hands into the water from the left, right, front, and back, splashing the surface. After a long time, the water remained still, but the dim sky and the murky sea made his heart clench. He gripped his dimensional crystal tightly in his hand.

He planned to bring the giant beast into his dimensional space as soon as he found it, and if that failed, he would immediately hide in his dimensional space.

Time passed second by second. In this silent sea, Lu Yuan could even hear his own heavy breathing and heartbeat. After waiting for more than an hour, there was still only the sound of wind and waves on the surface of the sea. The seabed was as still as water, without any movement.

"Are they being so cautious? Do I really have to jump into the water and take a bath to lure it over?"

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, actually he really didn't want to jump into the water, because the cold seawater was hard for him to handle. Although he had eaten a lot of golden fruits and his physique was far superior to that of ordinary people, jumping into the water in such cold weather was undoubtedly a very foolish thing to do.

The reason they dared to come here and attract the giant beast was simply to deal with it and speed up their journey.

Another half hour passed, and Lu Yuan finally couldn't stand it anymore. He looked around and saw that there was still no movement on the sea, so he decided to jump into the sea to search for it himself.

However, for safety reasons, he did not plan to dive too deep, and he also tied a rope to his waist to prevent the kayak from being blown away when he was swimming on the surface.

After checking the rope around his waist again, Lu Yuan took off his clothes, leaving him only in a close-fitting outfit; the rest of his clothes were packed into a waterproof bag.

The wind blew around him, and Lu Yuan shivered from the cold.

After checking his surroundings again, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and then leaped into the water.

The seawater was icy cold. The moment Lu Yuan jumped into the water, he immediately regretted it. He felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if needles were pricking him. The seawater corroded his skin, making him feel extremely uncomfortable all over. But since he had already done it, there was no turning back.
