Chapter 37: The Monster in the River!
The woman’s terrified look was immediately imprinted in everyone’s eyes.
There was a monster under the water!
A thought appeared in everyone’s mind at the same time.
Then, everyone began to scramble to swim towards the deck.
After all, although these people were all highly skilled mercenaries, their physiques were still human after all. When they were underwater, their abilities would be reduced by 70-80%.
“Ah… Ah…”
Just as everyone was starting to panic, another scream sounded.
The person, who was screaming, was swimming with all her might as she said with a sobbing tone, “There was a very big and slippery thing that rubbed against my leg.”
It was huge and slippery…
Either of these two description would make people panic.
But this underwater monster had both. Didn’t that mean…
Therefore, everyone waved their arms faster and tried to get to the deck.
“Hurry…”
“Don’t push me…”
In order to get on the ship first, the people behind started to push the people in front of them.
The calm surface of the water quickly became agitated.
Looking at the frightened expressions on everyone’s faces, Welsh knew that there must be something hidden under the water.
Seeing that everyone was afraid, Welsh knew that he had to step forward. Otherwise, this trip to Borneo would be fruitless.
He quickly walked to the cabin and took out a sharp harpoon.
He held the harpoon in his hand and stared at the muddy surface of the water. His entire body tensed up, like a bow ready to be fired.
Finally, when Welsh gathered all the energy in his body to the maximum, he saw a black shadow.
He narrowed his eyes and adjusted the position of the harpoon in his hand. Under everyone’s panicked gazes, he jumped off the boat.
Whether it was his posture or the harpoon in his hand, he looked like an ancient whaler.
After Welsh adjusted his position and jumped off the boat, he immediately felt a strong resistance on his hand, coming from the harpoon.
Welsh did not give up. Instead, he once again pressed down with the weight of his entire body.
“Pfft…”
As the harpoon in his hand stabbed into its body, Welsh knew that his attack was effective and had finally pierced through his opponent’s body.
After the stab, Welsh also fell into the river.
After gulping down a few mouthfuls of water, Welsh quickly floated to the surface of the water.
Just as he wiped the river water on his face, he saw a harpoon standing upright on the surface of the water, charging straight at him.
The monster’s vitality was very tenacious. Even though Welsh had pierced through its body with a harpoon, it did not die immediately.
Knowing that the monster was coming for him, Welsh naturally didn’t dare to be careless. He took a deep breath and dived down again.
Just as the big monster was about to arrive, he dodged the attack. Moreover, using his memory, Welsh reached out his hand and grabbed the harpoon again.
Welsh exerted force with his hand and directly stood on the other party’s back. But he was almost thrown off because of the huge force from the harpoon and the slippery body of the monster.
Welsh stood on the top of the monster’s head and could only barely support his body.
Seeing that the monster under him didn’t seem to be very smart, Welsh thought for a moment and started to chant.
He casually cast a ‘mental attack’ on the monster’s head.
The low-level spell ‘mental attack’ was more effective on those with lower mental strength (intelligence).
As expected, after Welsh cast the ‘mental attack’, the monster immediately stopped all its movements and was stunned.
It was stunned, but Welsh was not. He pulled out the harpoon in his hand and stabbed it again.
This time, in order to prevent any accidents, Welsh deliberately stabbed its brain.
Sure enough, the monster stopped moving and died after a few stabs.
After taking care of this monster, Welsh immediately looked at the ship and motioned for everyone to pull him back. After a fight, his body began to lose some strength.
However, the people on the ship did not seem to see his signal and just watched everything in a daze.
In fact, they were already stunned when they saw Welsh jumping off the boat.
When they saw Welsh jumping off the boat, with half of his body floating on the water and the other half moving quickly underwater, they were already stunned.
Welsh, who was holding a long wooden stick in his hand as if he was motorboating, looked dashing.
Everyone had their mouths wide open in amazement. In the end, Welsh could only climb onto the ship by himself.
After getting on the ship, Welsh looked at the monster floating on the surface of the water and nodded in satisfaction.
The monster they met this time was a big black fish.
This big fish looked about 3.5 meters long and weighed about 400 to 500 pounds. Most importantly, it had a big mouth!
The size of its big mouth was about one meter wide, and it could swallow three to four adults at the same time.
One had to know that in the professional fishing competition, a 70 to 80-kilogram big fish could make a strong female angler who weighed more than 100 kilograms suffer a great loss.
But the weight of this fish was estimated to be more than 80 pounds. According to the calculation, the bigger it was, the stronger it would be. This monster’s strength was probably more than ten times that of a normal human.
However, such a huge monster in the river was actually brought up by a slim man.
Not only was it brought up, but it was also brought up with a harpoon.
Harpoon fishing required one to use one’s body to withstand the fish’s entire body’s strength struggle and counterattack. It was impossible for a person who was not strong, courageous, or an agile martial arts master to achieve that.
However, he didn’t use any combat techniques just now…
In other words, this man was just that powerful. The strength contained in his body was extremely shocking.
This was an incomparably robust man…
For a moment, all the women present started to look at Welsh with burning gazes.
Welsh suddenly felt a wave of uneasiness from the stares.
He looked down and saw that his clothes had been soaked in water and had become translucent. Everyone was staring at his powerful lower body.
Just when he didn’t know what to do, Liz suddenly appeared.
She walked up with a red face and a white towel in her hand. When she was one or two meters away from Welsh, she threw it to him with her back to him.
“Quickly cover yourself with the towel and go back. Don’t catch a cold.”
Then, after Welsh used the towel to cover himself, she reached out and pulled Welsh toward the cabin.
