Chapter 110 Cliff Opportunity
Looking at the cliff ahead, Chu Ge's heart pounded.
He had seen the undersea cliffs before, and although this one wasn't as terrifying as the last one he encountered, he suffered from deep-sea phobia.
Um.
After all, he was a surfer.
On the internet, surfing isn't proper without a touch of OCD, trypophobia, deep-sea phobia, acrophobia, or hydrophobia; otherwise, you'd have no face to act cute in the comment section or chat.
Just as he was about to deactivate his color-changing state, he suddenly caught sight of a tiger shark opposite the cliff.
The tiger shark was robust, probably three meters long.
It also stopped in front of the cliff, indecisive.
"Could it also be attracted by that voice?"
Curiosity filled Chu Ge's heart, wondering if the tiger shark might be a Survivor?
His gaze then shifted in another direction.
A sailfish leisurely swam by, two meters long, looking as majestic as a Thorny Back Dragon.
The sailfish's fin, as tall as its body, made it easy for people to associate with the Thorny Back Dragon, and not just that, its mouth was long and sharp, reminiscent of a swordfish.
This sailfish was at the cliff on Chu Ge's side, fifteen meters away from him.
The sailfish was similarly observing the cliff's edge.
"Hey, big bro, did you hear it too?"
The tiger shark called out, its voice deep and with a hint of a Northeastern Chinese accent.
The sailfish responded, "Um."
His voice was cold and seemed rather proud.
"Why can't the other Survivors hear it, but we can? And the dolphin brother next to you," the tiger shark asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Chu Ge heart leaped, and he had no choice but to reveal himself.
The sailfish glanced at Chu Ge and said carelessly, "Perhaps we share a common trait."
With that, he dove first into the darkness below the cliff.
So resolute?
Chu Ge admired him secretly, choosing not to move and to watch instead.
"Dolphin brother, aren't you going to take a look down there?"
The tiger shark teased.
Chu Ge laughed, "Bro, why don't you go down first?"
Could this be the kind of serendipity that often appeared in novels?
Cliffs indeed bordered on serendipity.
But this was an undersea cliff.
"Life is precious, man, I don't dare," the tiger shark chuckled.
Chu Ge couldn't be bothered to respond any further.
The two of them quietly looked down into the darkness below the cliff.
A long time passed.
The sailfish still had not returned, but the mysterious voice kept echoing, drawing Chu Ge in.
"What could it be?"
Chu Ge felt as itchy as if a cat were scratching his heart but dared not go down.
If he were to die down there, all his hard work would be for nothing.
He wasn't just playing a game; he was surviving!
"Forget it! Better to leave! Out of sight, out of mind!"
Chu Ge clenched his teeth and turned to leave.
The tiger shark glanced at him and muttered lowly, "Coward!"
...
Chu Ge moved as fast as he could, trying hard to escape the interference of the mysterious voice.
But for some reason, that voice lingered in his ears.
"Am I cursed?"
Chu Ge cursed, accelerating again.
After swimming for half an hour, he suddenly stopped.
There appeared another cliff ahead.
He was stunned, his expression suddenly changing.
Shoot.
I really am cursed!
Chu Ge cautiously approached, praying it wasn't the same cliff.
After all, it was normal for many cliffs to appear on the ocean floor after a big earthquake.
Stay updated with empire
Moreover, he hadn't seen the tiger shark.
Coming to the edge of the cliff, he looked down; the mysterious voice echoed between the cliffs, as if a Sea Monster was singing below.
Whoosh—
A burst of bubbles surged up, followed by the sailfish Chu Ge had seen before, charging up.
He had a silver flower the size of a washbasin in his mouth, its petals stacked and looking very much like a lotus.
He swiftly swept past Chu Ge, swimming quickly.
"What is that?"
Chu Ge squinted his eyes, immediately associating it with unconventional survival material.
Just then, a powerful current surged up from below.
Chu Ge looked down and nearly had his soul scared out of him.
He immediately turned tail and fled.
Boom—
A massive Mosasaur burst from the darkness, angrily chasing the Sailfish.
Chu Ge turned around and realized the Mosasaur wasn't chasing him.
He was secretly surprised, wondering if it was the unconventional survival material that attracted the Mosasaur?
He had eaten unconventional survival material before, so could the Mosasaur smell his scent?
Chu Ge finally understood why the Mosasaur kept chasing him.
A thought struck him, and he immediately started to follow.
The Sailfish was carrying such a large piece of unconventional survival material, perhaps he could scoop up the leftovers if he followed!
His speed was very fast, and soon he was right behind the Mosasaur.
The Sailfish's speed was also fast, with peak speeds nearing two hundred kilometers per hour, already close to catching up with Chu Ge who had exchanged for survival skills in Speed.
If this Sailfish had also exchanged for speed in terms of survival abilities, it could easily surpass Chu Ge's speed.
After chasing for a while,
the Sailfish suddenly disappeared.
Chu Ge was stunned, and the Mosasaur stopped.
The Mosasaur was very irritable, roaring in all directions.
Chu Ge, in his color-changing state, didn't dare to relax lest the Mosasaur discover him.
Eventually, the Mosasaur left angrily.
After it was gone, Chu Ge also prepared to leave.
"Wait!"
The voice of the Sailfish came, startling Chu Ge as he looked around.
He couldn't catch a glimpse of the Sailfish.
The Sailfish appeared, showing up a dozen meters away, staring at Chu Ge and said, "Follow me, I need your help, and I will share the benefits with you."
With the silver flower in its mouth, it turned and swam away swiftly.
Chu Ge hesitated for a moment, then hastily followed.
"This guy can change color too! It seems even more advanced than mine; I can't find him, but he can find me,"
Chu Ge thought gloomily, guessing what the Sailfish wanted his help with.
The guy's mouth is like a western sword; he can't swallow the silver flower directly.
Having such a treasure but not being able to eat it must be so frustrating.
...
Two hours later, the Sailfish finally stopped.
They settled down among a patch of coral reef, Chu Ge watching him, waiting for him to speak.
"You help me break it apart. If you dare swallow it whole, I will kill you, then eat your flesh. If you don't live until the end, the unconventional survival material can't be transferred to your Survival Entity,"
the Sailfish said coldly, very serious and natural, not afraid that Chu Ge would mess around.
Chu Ge felt the danger.
The Sailfish's speed was very fast; if he couldn't beat it, he could also escape from in front of the Sailfish.
"If I break it apart, can you still swallow it?" Chu Ge hesitantly asked.
How disgusting.
The Sailfish said, "Hurry up, the Mosasaur will be here soon."
Chu Ge had no choice but to bite the silver flower apart and then spit it out.
What happened next depended on whether the Sailfish kept its promise.
The Sailfish ate two-thirds of the silver flower petals, leaving the rest of the petals and roots for Chu Ge, saying, "These are yours."
After saying that, it turned and left.
"Wait!"
Chu Ge quickly called out.
The Sailfish stopped and looked back at him.
Chu Ge asked curiously, "Are you always this straightforward in your dealings?"
He wasn't dissatisfied; after all, it was the Sailfish who had risked picking the flower, and he just helped to bite it apart.
The Sailfish glanced at him disdainfully without saying a word, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the sea.
"To have such a person in the Survival Arena is really unusual."
Chu Ge shook his head, then started to eat the petals of the silver flower.
Even the root system was consumed by him.
