“Have you found his corpse?” Reya asked.
“Miss, no. He’s probably eaten whole. It’s impossible to find him,” the bodyguard beside Reya replied.
He was also a witness for the accident a day ago. He saw the entire tragedy.
The killer whale was way too big. It only had to open its mouth slightly to swallow a person.
Chen Zhao was bitten firmly by the killer whale and dragged for a few hundred meters, leaving a path of blood behind.
Even if he was not swallowed, he would not have survived.
Reya did not have much hope either. After receiving her bodyguard’s reply, she shook her head. “Search for six more hours. If you still find nothing, ask all the ships to come back.”
Reya sighed. “How’s Rena?”
“She doesn’t even dare to touch water now. She’s probably… shocked.”
After all, she had seen a living human being eaten by a killer whale right before her eyes.
To the somewhat immature Rena, it was a horrifying sight.
Because of this, Reya really hoped that it was just a fake show arranged by Chen Zhao.
She already regretted her plan.
She originally wanted Chen Zhao to fake a show, so that Rena could forget about what had happened two days ago.
Nobody expected Chen Zhao to jump into a killer whale.
Although killer whales would not usually assault humans, it could happen.
The killer whale was truly enormous, a real giant in the sea.
Therefore, Rena was now hydrophobic. She did not even dare to go near a swimming pool, not to mention the sea.
…
“Human, give me your spatial ring. Let me expand it.”
Chen Zhao passed the spatial ring to Samuel. The ring just floated before him.
Just then, Samuel’s single horn fired a beam of black light. A black lightning bolt appeared and zapped around, as if it was going to tear space apart, before disappearing.
Chen Zhao could not understand Samuel’s spell, but it surely looked advanced.
Many magical inscriptions appeared, interconnected, around the ring. It looked like those special effects in movies.
Nonetheless, there was no screen at the moment. Everything was happening right before Chen Zhao.
After a while, all the magical inscriptions landed on the ring and many imprints emerged.
“Done,” Samuel said, as if he had just done something insignificant.
The spatial ring landed on Chen Zhao’s hand. He put the ring on, which felt somewhat different.
But he could not tell how it was different.
“Amon’s still in your territory. Can you get him here?”
“Let him lie there. When the time’s up, his true form and projection will both return to where they should be.”
“Oh, I need a Hell beast’s skeleton. I think you have a lot.”
“Why do you need a skeleton?”
“Decoration.”
24 hours passed very quickly. Chen Zhao returned to the human world again.
He was still in the sea, with Samuel’s projection atop his head.
Chen Zhao could feel that Amon was back as well, but they were not in the same place.
“Amon, where are you? Come and fetch me now.”
“It’s so far… I don’t want to go there.”
“Quickly!” Chen Zhao was frustrated by his conversation with the lazy Amon. Chen Zhao was presumably very far away from the shore and could not possibly swim back.
Suddenly, a yacht appeared in the distance. A plan suddenly flashed across Chen Zhao’s mind and he shouted, “Help… Help…”
…
“Miss, someone’s calling for help in the sea.”
Stunned, Reya asked, “Here? A drowning person?”
“I don’t know. It’s too far away.”
“Drive the yacht there,” Reya said.
As the yacht went closer, Reya finally saw the person in the sea.
It was actually Chen Zhao. How was he still alive?
It was impossible.
“It’s you?”
“Huh? Miss Reya, what a coincidence.”
Reya stared at the floating Chen Zhao. He did not look like he had just spent an entire day in the sea at all.
“Err, can you pull me onto your yacht?”
Reya squinted and looked at Chen Zhao. “Tell me how you escaped from the killer whale first.”
Reya could smell something fishy. Even if Chen Zhao had really survived the killer whale’s attack, he should be gravely injured and would not possibly have survived for 24 hours in the sea.
Also, had he been carrying the little cat on his head all this while?
“Let me up first, and I’ll tell you.”
“Tell me first, and I’ll let you up.”
Chen Zhao sighed. The woman was really troublesome. “Forget it, I don’t need you to save me anymore. Just leave.”
Reya trembled in anger. This bastard’s so irritating!
I’m saving his life, and this is how he treats me?
As if I’m begging to save him?
“Drive the yacht away,” Reya said.
“Miss, are we really going to leave him here?”
“He won’t die,” Reya said.
“Shit, that woman really sailed the yacht away… Amon, why ain’t you here yet?”
“Sigh… It would be great if I died in that forest in Hell. I’m so tired. Why couldn’t I just die?”
“When I get back to the shore, I’ll send you to God right away!” Chen Zhao shouted in annoyance.
…
“Miss, the sonar just detected a very large thing.”
“What?”
“No idea, but it’s very fast.”
“Submarine?”
“From its movement and the ripples, it should be a whale.”
“Killer whale?” Reya took her binoculars. In the distance, a three-meters-long black fin appeared on the surface.
It was the killer whale yesterday!
Reya’s expression changed. “Quick, go back.”
“Miss, the killer whale’s too big, about the same size as our yacht. If it attacks us, we’ll be in danger.”
“Go back,” Reya insisted.
Suddenly, however, Reya saw Chen Zhao stand up on the sea. He held onto the killer whale’s fin and made a hand signal at Reya.
Reya finally got it. Chen Zhao and the killer whale were on the same team.
“Follow the killer whale… and that person.”
“Miss, the killer whale’s way too fast.”
Reya watched as Chen Zhao moved further and further away, eventually disappearing out of her sight. She could not help but grit her teeth firmly.
It turned out that she and her sister had been deceived. It was Chen Zhao’s plan all along.
It had caused Rena to cry for an entire night and even develop psychological trauma.
“Return to the dock.” Reya would like to chase Chen Zhao, but the yacht did not have much power.
There was no way she was going to catch up with Chen Zhao and Amon. However, Chen Zhao was not going to the dock, but rather to Angel Beach.
