Chapter 116



The boat Chang Shisi was talking about was a fishing boat, not very big. This kind of boat can only accommodate 6 to 9 people at a time. Considering the number of people in the Dawn Team plus the two tied-up kids next to them, it would take at least two trips to get them all over.

The boat is equipped with a small generator, a marine diesel engine. The boat can generate electricity with diesel, or it can propel itself.

However, Chang Shisi himself was so poor that he had to rely on robbing passers-by for supplies, so he certainly would not choose to use something as luxurious as diesel to power a ship.

So when he came over from the other side of the river today, he and the skinny monkey slowly rowed the boat over manually. Of course, it took much longer to do this than to drive the boat over with an engine.

But for the members of the Dawn Team, this problem did not exist. Compared with saving a little diesel, they hoped to better protect the personal safety of everyone in the team.

The water in this river is turbid, and even if the people on the boat lean over close to the water, they can't see clearly what's underneath. There aren't many people in their team who are good at swimming, and if someone falls in, any danger in the water will be magnified many times for them.

So even though according to Chang Shisi's description, he had rowed on this river several times and had never seen any mutant animals in the water, their boat was very safe on the river and there was no need to worry about attacks by mutant animals. They still decided to use the engine. The sooner they reached the other side of the river, the sooner they could feel at ease.

Chang Shisi was tied up and stood there waiting. After a while, he saw one of them come over with a barrel of diesel and put it on the boat.

Chang Shisi was previously forced by Lin Yang to lead the way, so he didn't know what the members of the Dawn Team had brought over. When he saw the barrel of diesel, he didn't think too much about it.

But he was a little confused. It seemed that everyone in the team had gotten off the car, and there was no one guarding it. So where did they park their cars?

Chang Shisi was still a junior high school student before the end of the world. As an ordinary boy of his age, he didn't know much about cars. But even so, he could see that the three cars they drove were not ordinary. They were completely different from the ones you can see everywhere on the street. When others saw the team that could afford such cars in the end of the world, they either regarded them as fat sheep that could be blackmailed like Chang Shisi did this time, or they were worried that they were too powerful, feared them, and avoided them.

Of course, Chang Shisi could only keep these doubts in his heart. As a prisoner, he naturally dared not ask anything or say anything.

I could only stand alone in the corner, watching their busy figures, thinking that if I could really escape today, I would definitely add all the people I met today to my blacklist, and let the skinny little monkey remember in the future that no matter what, I should stay as far away from such troublesome and difficult people as possible.

They divided the people into two groups according to their strength.

Jiang Jingchao and Xue Chen first took a fishing boat and led a group of people over.

Ruan Ning and Gu also accepted their responsibility and sent someone to pick them up by boat after they passed by.

Chang Shisi was assigned to the latter team, while Little Skinny Monkey was in the former team.

Thinking that this little brat was a troublesome fellow, very cunning, and also a speed psychic, he was afraid that he would immediately run away after he was untied. So Lin Yang let Xu Chi continue to tie him up, and let him and his friend go after they were on the other side of the river.

Twenty minutes later, the fishing boat had made a round trip and had now reached the shore.

The journey was smooth and we didn't encounter any danger. We reached the other side smoothly.

"...I told you guys not to believe me. There are very few mutant animals on the route I chose." Chang Shisi muttered in a low voice, and said with deep sorrow, "There's nothing better than wasting diesel. You can exchange it for food to last at least a week."

Ruan Ning was sitting next to Chang Shisi, so even though he didn't speak loudly, he heard everything. He couldn't help but laugh at his resentful tone.

When Chang Shisi heard a clear laugh coming from beside him, he knew that what he had just said must have been heard by someone. Feeling annoyed, he turned his head and glared at the man, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

Ruan Ning also knew that this was a bit impolite, so she suppressed her smile and said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to do that. I just couldn't help myself."

Before Chang Shisi could say anything else, he saw the man sitting on the other side of the girl and glanced at him lightly. Chang Shisi felt as if all the blood in his body had frozen and he dared not move at all.

In order to cover up his gaffe, he quickly turned his head and stopped looking there.

Suddenly the boat shook and they felt something hit their boat.

Ruan Ning staggered, grabbed the handrail beside him, steadied himself, and asked the person next to him, "Is this what you mean by safe?"

Chang Shisi was slapped in the face so quickly that his cheeks turned red. His lips moved, but in the end he said nothing.

This boat was used for fishing on the river in the past, so the hull is still very sturdy.

Their boat had already sailed almost halfway and reached the middle of the river.

This is where the water is the deepest. Even though Ruan Ning is a good swimmer, he couldn't imagine what it would be like if he fell in. No wonder their team didn't plan to go to the imperial capital by water from the beginning. It was too inconvenient to be on a boat, and they would be limited in dealing with mutant animals. It felt safer to be on the ground.

"Everyone hold on tight, don't fall into the water."

Gu Yicheng's supernatural power is actually quite useful for dealing with underwater mutants. He tightened his jaw, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a ball of lightning quickly gathered in the palm of his hand. He compressed the lightning power into a lightning ball, and then, when he saw the right moment and felt that the mutants were near them, he threw the lightning ball under the boat.

Soon, with the boat as the center, the surrounding ten meters were flashing with crackling lightning. Gu Yicheng had dealt with some mutant animals in the water when he was in the imperial capital in his previous life, so he had good control over the position and power of the lightning ball.

The situation underwater is unclear, but from the increasingly violent shaking of the boat, it can be seen that the mutant animal below is probably in a very bad condition, otherwise it would not be so frantic.

However, the people on the boat had no other options for the mutant animal that did not show its head under the boat. The water was still full of electricity, and they could not go into the water to deal with it. They could only hold on to the handrails on the side, hoping that the mutant animal below would calm down quickly and not capsize the boat.

Fortunately, after a while, their shaking boat slowly stabilized, and then a charred fish corpse floated up from under the water.

Lin Yang poked the corpse on the water with the oar, "What is this?"

It had a round body and was about the size of a basketball. He had never seen such a strange creature in his life.

They had always been walking on land before, and had only come into contact with very few mutant animals in the water. Moreover, after the mutant animals in the water evolved, their appearance changed more than that of the mutant animals on land, so it was difficult to tell what species these creatures that were still alive in the water were before.

Chang Shisi started to name a kind of fish. He grew up by the river, so he was quite familiar with these aquatic creatures.

Chang Shisi couldn't help but feel frightened by the move that Gu Yicheng had just revealed.

The creatures in the river are more difficult to deal with than one another, especially in the water. Humans have no advantage in the water. Generally, if we want to deal with them, we can only use various means on land to attract these mutant animals to the riverside.

But this person can electrocute the mutants in the water with just one power. Even if water can conduct electricity, this method is not something that ordinary psychics can do. It requires a lot of electricity in an instant. Otherwise, if it is really that easy, in the future, to kill mutants in the water, wouldn't it be enough to just let the lightning psychic discharge some electricity into the water before going down to the river? There is no need to worry about whether there is any danger.

Although there was a small accident along the way, they still reached the other side smoothly.

"Brother Gu, are you okay? We just saw your boat moving on the shore. Did you encounter any mutant animals?" Jiang Jingchao asked worriedly.

Gu Yicheng nodded, "Yes, one came, but we dealt with it."

The scene just now not only made the people on the boat feel terrified, but even the people on the shore were almost scared to death, and almost thought their boat was going to collapse. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

When they reached the other side of the river, the Dawn Team kept their promise and released the two men. Chang Shisi finally regained his freedom.

He stretched his back and stretched his muscles. During the hour he was tied up, the more he moved, the tighter the vines contracted. He felt that if he was tied up any longer, his body would soon become stiff.

"Little brat, don't do things like today again. You won't be so lucky every time. Use your special ability to find a base to stay and live a better life than now." Lin Yang saw that he was young and smart, so after seeing him go astray, he said a few more words. If it was those adult robbers, he would not have such a good intention. He would strip them naked and throw them in the middle of the road or tie them to a tree to scare them, and these people would naturally behave themselves.

Chang Shisi curled his lips, not agreeing with their idea, "Going to the base is just to be cannon fodder. I'm not that stupid..." He spoke in a low voice, almost inaudible.

Although they had released him as agreed, Chang Shisi was still afraid that these people would do something to him, after all, he was totally unable to defeat them. So after being untied, he did not dare to waste any more time, and quickly activated his supernatural powers to take the little skinny monkey away from this place of trouble.

Lin Yang looked at the young man who had disappeared with his men in the blink of an eye, and shook his head, "I knew this guy could run faster than anyone else."
