Cave Refuge

Chapter 699: The Letter



The initial plan was already conceived; the next step was to look for an opportunity to carry it out.

Since he had the experience from before, Dong Tianyu knew that bombs dropped from above wouldn't be obstructed, but this method of dropping explosives could at most land them on the deck, and it was almost impossible to blow the warship to pieces directly.

At this moment, the warship floating on the water before Dong Tianyu had already exceeded the size of a ten-thousand-ton giant wheel, with its height alone surpassing twenty stories.

Dong Tianyu checked the explosives in his storage space; maybe, if he used them all at once, he could actually shatter it.

However, given the scenario just now, the opponent wasn't merely a simple warship. If it was a small-scale tossing of explosives, it might have been successful, but if he tried to detonate all the explosives in the storage space at once, the success rate would definitely be minuscule.

Don't forget that the opponent just demonstrated the ability to transform into liquid metal. If Dong Tianyu's act of deploying a large quantity of explosives was discovered, whether the opponent would immediately transform its shape and dive into the seabed or rely on its liquid metal ability to reduce the damage from the explosion, it could possibly survive the blast.

Just as Dong Tianyu was hesitating whether he should, like the last time he faced the Sky-Piercing Giant Tree, go back to the Book Collection Pavilion to spend Survival Points to learn countermeasures, an accident occurred once again.

Dong Tianyu, who had been using the Invisibility Technique for Sword Flight in the sky, suddenly got a dangerous alert from his sixth sense. Sensing danger signals from all directions, Dong Tianyu decisively controlled the Flying Sword under his feet to ascend quickly.

As the Flying Sword underfoot kept rising, Dong Tianyu also began to shift his attention downward.

Dong Tianyu was right above that warship at the time, and he thought that the sudden source of danger detected by his sixth sense originated from the warship below him. He was speculating whether his current position had been detected by the warship below, hence preparing to launch anti-air missiles to attack him.

But when Dong Tianyu used his Divine Sense to probe the weapons on deck, he found that there was no indication that any of the weapons were activating.

Before a new thought could form in his mind, the previously calm surface of the sea was suddenly covered by a huge shadow; before Dong Tianyu could react, the upper and lower jaws, resembling mountains, suddenly pierced out of the water and then clamped together.

At that moment, the distance between Dong Tianyu and the apex of the now-closed gigantic maw below him was less than ten meters; his skin could already feel the Gang Wind caused by the mouth bursting out of the water.

When both halves of the mouth, resembling mountains, snapped shut and sank, a short pit appeared on the sea surface for a moment.

Dong Tianyu too was given a scare by the sudden appearance of that giant mouth; had it not been for the frantic warnings from his Divine Sense and his unhesitant swift Sword Flight to higher altitudes, he would have definitely been swallowed by that gigantic maw.

Dong Tianyu, who had just been relieved to have escaped a catastrophe, suddenly thought of his current distance, which seemed to be right above the warship from before.

Even with his frantic altitude increase in flying, he was nearly swallowed by that gigantic maw. Now, considering he almost got eaten, the warship, which Dong Tianyu had originally targeted and that was staying on the water's surface, must be experiencing something.

As Dong Tianyu turned his gaze back to the water's surface below, watching the sea gradually return to calm after the disappearance of the giant mouth, he did not show a surprised expression.

You have to know that although the sudden increase in flight altitude that Dong Tianyu made just now took less than half a minute, the height he gained was unquestionably not low. Moreover, his position before the rise in altitude was already high to prevent detection by the warship below.

But even so, he was nearly swallowed by that gigantic mouth earlier. From the sheer height of the giant mouth's bite, it was clear how massive the Abyss Giant Mouth was; thus, directly swallowing the large warship that had been stationary on the sea's surface in one gulp wouldn't be a strange thing at all.

The sudden incident directly thwarted the plan that Dong Tianyu had yet to finalize.

After being startled for a moment and then coming to his senses, Dong Tianyu immediately took out and opened the map on his communicator to check his current location.

Seeing the electronic Sea Chart on the communicator indicating his current location in the maritime zone, Dong Tianyu, of course, didn't hesitate to mark his position and add a note that a sea monster had appeared in this sea area.

However, when Dong Tianyu saw the option to upload videos or photos displayed, he realized he had been too frightened to care about escaping earlier. Not to mention photos and videos, even that gigantic mouth which was as big as a mountain peak, after sinking beneath the water, Dong Tianyu had forgotten to imprint it with a trace of his Divine Sense.

Marking that big fellow with a Divine Sense trace was not because Dong Tianyu wanted to make a move on it, but in case he encountered it again in the future, he could detect it in advance and prevent himself from being unexpectedly ambushed.

Under normal circumstances, the so-called "two tigers can't share one mountain," can be simply explained as: since tigers eat meat and consume a lot, in most situations, the animals on a mountain can only afford to nourish the existence of one tiger.

After all, the animals living on the mountain need to reproduce, so most of the time, to ensure their survival, tigers will define their hunting range; the scarcer the food, the larger the range the tiger will define for hunting.
