The two of them surfaced quickly, but compared to the Water Monster, they were no match at all.
At this perilous mont, they noticed that the Water Monster had actually slowed down!
They exchanged a glance.
Realizing that the situation wasn’t as simple as they thought.
The creature before them was more intelligent than they had imagined.
Leaping out of the water made it aware of the danger.
Seeing the dire situation, Lin Yi dove again, forcibly changing his direction.
Holding the dagger, he swam towards the Water Monster.
Seeing Lin Yi return, the Water Monster started swimming again.
The imnse resistance slowed Lin Yi’s actions, but he was still faster than an ordinary person.
The Water Monster moved incredibly fast, reaching Lin Yi in the blink of an eye, not even giving him a chance to react.
The sharp fin, like a knife, cut Lin Yi’s diving suit.
Lin Yi seized the mont and stabbed it in the body!
Scarlet blood dyed the lake water red.
Making visibility further reduced.
And the Water Monster’s fury increased.
Lin Yi didn’t linger in battle, he took what he could and left.
His condition wasn’t suitable for continued underwater combat.
The diving suit was cut open, letting lake water in.
At this ti, Tao Cheng rushed up, creating an opportunity for Lin Yi to take off his diving suit.
Tao Cheng didn’t confront the Water Monster directly, he entangled with it underwater.
Even though Tao Cheng was strong, he seed insignificant in front of the Water Monster.
anwhile, Lin Yi, having removed his diving suit, turned back.
The sharp dagger, like a sharp sword, stabbed into the Water Monster’s eye!
Roar!
A furious roar sounded below the water surface.
Lin Yi grabbed Tao Cheng’s diving suit, signaling him to surface.
Having reached this point, they couldn’t continue to fight anymore.
The two surfaced together, the Water Monster struggling all the while.
But after a few seconds, it locked its gaze on them again.
Even when almost reaching the lake surface, it didn’t slow down.
Seeing the danger, Lin Yi shoved Tao Cheng aside.
And right at that mont, the Water Monster crashed into him!
Crash!
Lin Yi clung tightly to the Water Monster, and both of them leaped out of the water together.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out!
A hot bullet fired from a gun hit the Water Monster!
In an instant, flesh and blood splattered!
Bang bang!
Two more tranquilizer darts hit it.
The Water Monster instantly ceased its attack.
Its body quickly sank back below the water.
"You go up first. I’ll catch it!"
Hastily, Tao Cheng dove back into the water.
Lin Yi floated on the surface, slowly swimming towards the shore.
In his current state, underwater combat wasn’t suitable.
Luo Qi hurried over, pulling Lin Yi to the shore.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"I’m catching my breath."
Lying on the ground, gasping heavily.
His chest was a blotch of red.
"Boss, you’re injured."
"It’s just a scratch, I’m fine."
Luo Qi returned to the car, brought out a first aid kit, and cut open Lin Yi’s clothes.
His chest had a large bruise and a cut.
But the wound wasn’t deep, it’s just the lake water wasn’t clean, it needed imdiate treatnt to avoid infection.
Shortly, the lake surface rippled again.
Tao Cheng surfaced, dragging the Water Monster in his hand.
"Quick, help , this thing is too heavy."
Task completed, the others gathered around.
Sui Qiang and Zhao Yunhu jumped into the water imdiately, helping Tao Cheng pull the Water Monster up from the lake bottom.
After dragging it to the shore, everyone fell silent.
They were even startled by the Water Monster’s appearance.
Roughly humanoid in shape.
But its hands had turned into fins.
Though it had legs similar to humans, they weren’t long.
The most frightening was the Water Monster’s face.
It had eyes, nostrils, and a mouth full of sharp teeth.
Even with a bullet from a sniper rifle creating a blood hole, it still looked terrifying.
"Could this thing be the legendary rmaid?" Zhao Yunhu said.
"Science has disproven that, the so-called rmaid is just a dugong," Shao Jianfeng said.
"I’ve seen dugongs, they’re much cuter than this thing."
"We’ll have to take it back for research now," Lin Yi said:
"Hu Zi, pack it up in the car first."
"Got it."
The Water Monster, over two ters long, was quite heavy, at least a ton.
A few people worked together to lift it into the car.
"I’ll arrange the next tasks," Lin Yi said:
"Sui Qiang, Yu Siying, Luo Qi, Hu Zi, the four of you stay here, split into pairs. There’s nothing you need to do except monitor the surroundings, report imdiately if any outsiders approach."
"But the Kaijie Group’s goal might not be this Water Monster, there might be sothing else underwater. If we don’t take this chance to search, we’ll miss the opportunity," Yu Siying said.
"The GP4 people had an accident, the Kaijie Group will send people over soon, it’s not right to act now," Lin Yi said:
"If we move, it’ll be easy for others to benefit from our efforts."
Everyone nodded, understanding Lin Yi’s point.
"So just keep watch. If soone continues operating here, that indicates sothing else exists at the lake bottom, it won’t be too late to co back then."
"Understood."
"Hold the fort for a few days, when you return, I’ll send the second team over, we’ve been out here long enough and it’s ti to rest."
"Thank you, Team Leader Qiu."
"Alright, let’s get busy, hurry and send this damn thing back."
Ring ring ring—
At this mont, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Xiao Bing.
"Lin Bro, it seems the Kaijie Group is sending more people to your location, they might be planning sothing."
"Got it, continue observing."
Xiao Bing’s report was within Lin Yi’s expectations.
The death of their people in the hospital would naturally raise their awareness, sending people was only logical.
There might even be a delay in Xiao Bing’s information.
They might have arrived already.
"Alright, let’s go, ti’s ticking."
"Okay."
In the car, they all headed towards the embassy.
Transporting such a thing needed official intervention; otherwise, it wouldn’t even pass security checks.
When transporting the Water Monster, it was sealed in a specially-made box.
These kinds of things were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people and weren’t suitable for the public’s eye.
They didn’t rush out, instead, at night they went to a bar to rest for a night.
"What do you think about that Water Monster?" Tao Cheng asked:
"Any secrets to uncover?"
Lin Yi shrugged, "I wasn’t feeling optimistic initially, but if the Kaijie Group’s target is it, then it might be interesting."
