Lu Ye turned his head suddenly and saw Shen Shu's face was pale and bloodless. She stretched out a trembling finger and pointed at the sea not far behind the stern of their boat.
Looking in the direction she pointed—
A hideous, gray-black triangular fish fin broke through the calm water surface and rushed straight towards their boat!
"Fuck! System!" Lu Ye's mind buzzed, and he instantly matched the "empty" box with the "Shark X1" in the system email!
This damn "surprise" is such a deadly "shock"!
A live airdrop of a top predator during a delivery?!
"Shark...Shark! It's coming! So fast!" Shen Shu's voice was filled with tears, her teeth were chattering, and her whole body was frozen in place.
Her mind was blank, with only the approaching terrifying shadow remaining.
"Don't panic! Get behind me!" In a flash, Lu Ye pulled the frightened Shen Shu behind him, and at the same time picked up the ordinary cardboard box next to him that he had just determined to be an empty box - the packaging box of "Shark Express" - and smashed it hard in the direction of the shark's attack!
With a "plop", the light cardboard box fell on the water, without causing any hindrance to the huge monster, and even failed to slow down its speed at all.
Damn! It was all in vain!
Lu Ye cursed inwardly, but this brief action bought him some time.
The kayak shook violently in the waves created by the shark, as if it would be overturned in the next second.
The two of them leaned close together and could clearly feel each other's rapid heartbeats.
In the small space, the smell of death has never been so strong.
"Lu Ye...will it...will it bite through the boat? We will die if we fall in!" Shen Shu's voice was filled with despair as she clutched Lu Ye's arm tightly.
Lu Ye took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He glanced at the shark, which was so close that he could even see the sharp teeth in its bloody mouth. A hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his left arm and aimed the grappling hook launcher on his wrist, which he had just obtained and still had a cold metallic luster, forward!
"This thing... the system introduction seems to be used for whaling? Damn it, never mind! Let's give it a try!" Lu Ye gritted his teeth and quickly took out the sharp and heavy alloy claw dart from the pile of supplies next to him with his right hand.
With a "click", it was precisely buckled into the front end latch of the launcher. At the same time, the steel cable connecting the claw dart and the launcher was checked to ensure that it was firmly fixed.
Alloy claws and steel cables should be able to kill a shark!
He was unsure, but this was his only hope now!
The shark was right in front of them, its huge shadow covering the boat, and the strong stench of the ocean mixed with the threat of death was overwhelming!
Now is the time!
Lu Ye's pupils suddenly contracted, and his arm muscles tensed instantly. Almost instinctively, he pulled the trigger of the launcher without hesitation, facing the shark's open bloody mouth and ferocious head!
"call out--!"
A sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard!
The silver alloy claw dart dragged the tough steel cable, like an arrow shot from a bow, tearing through the air, and with an indomitable momentum, it shot towards the huge iron-tooth shark with incredible precision!
“Puff!”
A dull sound that makes your teeth ache!
The alloy claw dart penetrated deeply into the iron-tooth shark's skull near its eyes with unstoppable force!
“Ahhhh!!!”
The iron-toothed shark that was hit by the dart let out a shrill roar, and its huge body twisted and struggled wildly in the sea!
The huge tail fin slapped the sea surface wildly.
"Boom! Boom!" There was a loud noise, and huge waves two or three meters high were raised, which hit the small kayak like a leaf in the wind, and it almost capsized!
Lu Ye held on to the side of the boat tightly, and with his other hand he held tightly to Chen Shu, who was about to be thrown out. He let the cold sea water splash on his body, but his eyes were fixed on the dying behemoth without blinking.
The steel cable was stretched straight, connecting the transmitter to his shaking arm.
The struggle lasted for more than ten seconds, perhaps longer.
The iron-toothed shark's movements became slower and slower, and weaker and weaker. Finally, its huge body suddenly stiffened, and it slowly turned over, revealing its grayish-white belly, and it became completely motionless.
Only the dark red blood spread rapidly in the sea water around it, which was shocking.
Dead?
Really...killed?!
Lu Ye was breathing heavily, his heart was still beating wildly, and his arms were numb from the previous impact and the continued tension.
At this moment, the cold system prompt sound suddenly rang in the minds of the two people.
[Ding! Congratulations to player Lu Ye for successfully killing the "Irontooth Shark"! Achieved the "Novice Shark Hunter" achievement!]
[System Reward: Upgrade Gift Pack x 1! It has been automatically deposited into your system backpack, please check it carefully!]
Almost at the same time, the prompt sound of the [Regional Channel] also sounded, but Lu Ye didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being.
Upgrade gift pack?!
Lu Ye's spirits lifted, and he almost immediately opened the system backpack with his mind.
A gift package icon emitting a faint glow lay there quietly.
[Upgrade Gift Pack: Iron Block x15, Rubber x10, Wood Plank x50.]
Oh shit!
Iron! Rubber! Wood! Ten pieces of each!
This is truly a timely help!
With these materials, let alone repairing any possible damage, you can directly perform a basic upgrade on this medium-sized kayak to improve its durability and stability!
The huge surprise dispelled his fear, and a smile of surviving a disaster appeared on Lu Ye's face.
He turned his head and looked at Shen Shu who was still in shock.
"Chen Shu, we got it! System rewards, iron blocks and rubber planks. We can upgrade the ship now, and it's safe."
Her tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and Shen Shu felt a black screen in front of her eyes, her legs softened, she screamed, and fell forward uncontrollably.
Lu Ye subconsciously reached out and held her soft body steadily in his arms.
"Woo... I'm so scared... I'm really scared..." Shen Shu buried her face in Lu Ye's chest, her voice filled with tears came out muffled, her body still trembling slightly.
"Lu Ye, thank you. Fortunately, I met you first, otherwise I would have died..."
A warm, fragrant and soft beauty suddenly appeared in my arms.
The sweet fragrance of the girl's body penetrated into his nostrils. Feeling her unreserved dependence, Lu Ye's body stiffened slightly, and then a strange feeling surged in his heart.
Uh...this...is this benefit coming too suddenly?
He patted Shen Shu's back gently, trying to comfort her, but his heart couldn't help but wander.
Well, to be honest, Doctor Shen’s figure is really great...
At this delicate moment where beauty and thrills intertwined, the [Regional Channel] had completely exploded, with information flooding the screen like a waterfall!
[Holy shit!!! What's going on?! Who did the system just say killed the Irontooth Shark?! Lu Ye?! Who is this?!]
