Chapter 8: embrace
Xiao Yu has never been a cowardly person, since he decided to live and die with Cang Hai, he will not hesitate or shrink back.
Isn't Cang Hai looking for opportunities?
Then this opportunity, let him create it.
Tail swaying, Xiao Yu as much as possible to reduce the water flow caused by himself, quietly approaching the black beard octopus.
He has seen the body of the black-barbed octopus, which is a huge monster covered with bright silver scales, a bit like an enlarged version of a pangolin with silver scales in a ball shape.
Ugly is ugly, but conspicuous is better.
Got you.
Probably because of the fear of Cang Hai's combat power, the body of the black-striped octopus has long been hiding far away, a hundred meters away from the giant cocoon.
Xiao Yu is also along the direction of the extension of the tentacles to find this wretched guy.
But here comes the problem, even if he finds the body of the black-striped octopus, how can he convey the location of the black-striped octopus to Cang Hai?
Xiao Yu was at a loss, but fortunately he didn't need to solve this problem, almost the moment he stopped swimming, the giant cocoon shattered.
Cang Hai waved the long sword in his hand, where the sword light passed, countless tentacles and broken limbs were cut off one after another, and were swept away by the current.
The first time Xiao Yu appeared, Cang Hai felt him.
The reason why he did it now is precisely because Xiao Yu stopped swimming, which allowed him to determine the true location of the black-bearded octopus.
Xiao Yu saw that his heart was surging and his blood was boiling.
The long sword did not hesitate even in the water, the blade broke through the water, and the blade pointed directly at the body of the black-bearded octopus.
The black-bearded octopus was obviously panicked, and manipulated countless tentacles to block Cang Hai's attack. The water currents from all directions collided with each other, and for a while, the entire sea area was filled with ferocious tentacles with teeth and claws, and the turmoil was unbearable.
Under this indiscriminate attack, Xiao Yu was not spared.
A thick tentacle swept across, and he subconsciously blocked it. Just when he thought that his arm injury was inevitable, Cang Hai actually turned back halfway, and cut off the tentacle that attacked him with a sword.
There was no sound in the water, Xiao Yu could only stare round his eyes, which were full of disapproval.
He knew that Cang Hai was kind enough to save him, but the real body of the black-striped octopus was right in front of him, and hunting the black-striped octopus was the purpose of their trip.
For this reason, it's okay for him to be injured a little bit, but what if Cang Hai was delayed and the black-bearded octopus ran away?
Of course, the cunning black-bearded octopus would not let go of this opportunity. It had already prepared to cut off its beards to survive, leaving some tentacles to continue to interfere with them, but the main body took the opportunity to escape to the deep sea.
Xiao Yu was dying of anxiety, and the prey in his mouth ran away!
It's nothing, he just feels sorry for Cang Hai, it's a pity that he wasted so much energy and held his breath for so long, but the result fell short.
But Cang Hai calmly put away his long sword, grabbed Xiao Yu's waist with one hand, and clenched his other hand into a fist, a gun appeared in his hand instantly.
There is actually a gun in Cang Hai's space ring!
Xiao Yu is horrified, but also curious.
The country where he lived in his previous life strictly prohibited guns. Most of his understanding of guns comes from film and television dramas, let alone watching them at such a close distance.
This gun was more special than any gun he had ever seen. It had a wide caliber and an unknown metal inlaid on the edge.
The body of the gun is transparent, and you can clearly see the crystal blue fluid inside. The spiral tube runs through the entire pistol. This structure is exactly like the condenser tube commonly used in laboratories, so Xiao Yu guessed that the role of the spiral tube and the crystal blue fluid is probably It is also used to cool down.
At the same time, Cang Hai raised his hand and pulled the trigger in the opposite direction from where the black-barbed octopus was fleeing.
Xiao Yu saw a wave of bright white energy gathering at the muzzle, and it didn't take a moment for it to grow into a huge energy ball with a diameter about the length of his arm.
As Cang Hai relaxed his fingers, the energy ball was pushed out from the barrel of the gun, and the surging recoil propelled Cang Hai and Xiao Yu to rush straight in the direction of the black bearded octopus.
The cold sea slapped mercilessly on the top of his head, and the impact of the sea made him dizzy.
The speed that the energy ball brought them was very fast, but the price of the speed was that his head hurt, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Cang Hai seemed to be aware of Xiao Yu's pain, and pressed his head into his arms with one hand, bearing most of the impact for him.
Clinging to the man's fiery chest, Xiao Yu's ears felt hot, and he didn't know where to look.
There are brightly colored **** on the left and right sides, so he can only look up and stare at Cang Hai's firm chin.
He had forgotten how long he hadn't experienced the feeling of being protected.
When he was only ten years old, he was picked up by the coach, and he performed anti-strike training day after day to polish his muscles and bones. At that time, he didn't understand why he had to be beaten. When he cried to the coach, the coach only said three words: "For your own good."
For your own good, so I can beat you black and blue; for your good, so I have to train intensively every day; for your good, so I took him around to find an underground boxing field, which is called actual combat training.
He lived up to expectations and became the youngest world boxing champion. On the same day, he broke up with his coach.
He returned all the honors in full, and he left all the bonuses to the coach without taking any money. He wanted to bid farewell to the past, but he found that he knew nothing but boxing, and he became a professional boxer as his coach hoped, either for honor, or for prize money. In the battle of meat.
The audience only cared about whether his heavy punches could knock out his opponents, and only cheered for the winner in the boxing ring. No one cared whether he was in pain or tired.
The warm palm on top of the head makes people feel nostalgic.
For a moment, he actually wanted to thank this unreasonable and crisis-ridden time travel, which allowed him to get acquainted with Cang Hai and get a moment of care.
The battlefield changes rapidly.
Xiao Yu nestled in Cang Hai's arms, gloating at the black-bearded octopus not far away, the distance between them was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, but he also found that Cang Hai's face was not very good-looking.
Having been stalemate underwater for so long, the oxygen in Cang Hai's lungs might be running low.
If it doesn't work, he can also try underwater artificial respiration. Although he doesn't know how the mermaid can survive underwater, since he can live underwater for a long time, it shows that he has the ability to separate oxygen from seawater .
That being the case, if he blows into Cang Hai's mouth, it should also be able to play the role of artificial respiration.
Unfortunately, Cang Hai did not give Xiao Yu a chance to rescue.
When he realized that he was on the verge of the limit, Cang Hai decided to make a quick decision and finish his work in one battle.
The long sword had already appeared in his hands at some point, and he accurately blocked the chasing tentacles with the hilt. Using the power of the tentacles, their speed increased again, and finally caught up with the fleeing black-bearded octopus.
Cang Hai's sword was like lightning, and a sword pierced the brain of the main body.
Regardless of the unstoppable tentacles, the body of the black-barbed octopus actually doesn't have much combat power, and the seemingly dangerous shell can only serve as a deterrent.
After killing the black-bearded octopus, Cang Hai let go of Xiao Yu at ease, and quickly floated to the surface to take a breath.
Xiao Yu was not idle either, he turned around the dead black-bearded octopus, weighed it, and estimated how much it would be appropriate to carry it.
It is impossible to move such a large prey ashore at once.
But Xiao Yu forgot, Cang Hai has a space ring.
Cang Hai touched the space ring to the body of the black-bearded octopus, and the huge creature in front of him disappeared instantly.
Xiao Yu saw his eyes shining.
Previously, Cang Hai stored only small items, which were far less massive than the black-bearded octopus.
Think about it, how shocking it would be when a football field disappears in front of your eyes.
I don't know if the space ring is a rare item, otherwise he would like to make one to play with.
Storage space is also mentioned in the original book, but the storage space in the original book is called space ore.
Not to mention the heavy ore, the internal space is only enough to store a mecha, so few people are extravagant enough to use space ore to store sundries.
Even Gu Xijiao, the lucky male lead, only has a space ring made of top-quality mica ore, which can barely store two medium-sized mechs.
It is conceivable that Cang Hai's space ring must be very precious.
To possess such a precious space ring, Cang Hai's identity must not be simple.
But having said that, the background environment of "The First Interstellar Military Academy" is the Federation, and there may be a higher civilization above the Federation, and Cang Hai may be a person of a higher civilization.
The two went ashore soaking wet.
Xiao Yu picked up his and Cang Hai's clothes, blamed the black bearded octopus, their clothes were all wet.
"Are you injured?" Cang Hai asked expressionlessly;
Xiao Yu: "No."
"Lie." Cang Hai's face darkened, "I smell blood, check it yourself, and use the healing device to heal the wound." He said, holding the healing device in his hand.
Xiao Yu looked around carefully, and finally found a shallow scratch on the side of his waist. The problem was when he was injured, he had no memory at all.
Knowing that Xiao Yu's injury was on his waist, Cang Hai also heaved a sigh of relief: "It's fine if it's not a vital point, I can't see it, you heal the injury yourself."
Healing instrument started, Xiao Yu obediently opened the button, to heal himself.
Cang Hai sat cross-legged beside her, with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Didn't I tell you to wait for me on the shore? If you are obedient, you won't always get hurt."
His chest hurts with anger.
Xiao Yu naturally wanted to argue with reason: "You have been away for so long, I am afraid that something will happen to you, so I went into the water to look for you. How can I be disobedient? If you said earlier that you can hold your breath for so long, you see I can't go down save you!"
"I need your help?" Cang Hai acted like a little mermaid, completely unaware of how dangerous the desolate star is today, "Even if I really die in the sea, you are not allowed to go down. No matter what time it is, staying alive is the most important thing." Yes. Even if you don’t cherish your own life, do you expect others to cherish it?”
Xiao Yu: "..."
He silently turned off the healing device: "Give it back to you."
The furrow between Cang Hai's eyebrows was even deeper: "I'm trying to reason with you, don't lose your temper."
"My injury is healed. The wound was very shallow. You made all the fuss."
Having said that, Xiao Yu is no longer angry.
Of course, anyone who kindly saves people is accused, and everyone will be angry.
He was also very angry at the beginning, but gradually, he heard a bit of concern from Cang Hai's complaints.
That is concern, although the way Cang Hai expresses concern is so awkward and tough.
"I'm so cold." Xiao Yu decided to be soft, "Even if you have to settle the score, can you let me put on clothes first."
As for who is right and who is wrong, he doesn't think he is wrong anyway.
Cang Hai pondered for a moment: "Here."
Xiao Yu looked at the towel in Cang Hai's hand, the corners of his mouth became more and more curved, almost reaching the back molars.
