Wilderness Redemption Tour
Chapter 217 Water Monster
As soon as Jules said this, the people under the tree were in an uproar.
"What? Are the rumors in the village true? Maybe you saw it wrong?" Thomas's words were clearly filled with doubt.
"Is it important to discuss whether the rumor is true or not?" Dutch was also skeptical, but it was better to believe it than not. While others were still standing there asking Jules for confirmation, he took the lead and moved towards the boat with difficulty: "Saving my life is the most important thing. I don't want to stay in the water for even a minute now."
The remaining three people also started to move after hearing this. Arthur kept shaking his head to observe the movements around him, and at the same time asked Jules who was lying on the tree for help: "Jules, you keep an eye on the monster up there."
"It's too foggy. I can't see very far." Jules wanted to agree, but he couldn't see very far in this weather. "I can only barely see the light of the lantern now. You're on your own."
Arthur then realized that it was a foggy day. He couldn't see what Jules looked like when he was very close to the tree just now, so it was even more impossible for Jules to serve as their eyes at this time.
Apart from cursing "Damn weather", Arthur could only pray that the noise just now did not disturb the big guy.
Lin Yan, who was walking at the end, had a calm expression on his face, which formed a sharp contrast with the others. In his eyes, the color of Arthur and Dutch's bodies did not change at all, which was the best proof that they would not be attacked.
Dutch was the first to board the boat, followed by Thomas and Arthur. Lin Yan finally managed to board the boat with the help of Arthur.
"Huh!" Dutch, who was sitting in the middle of the cabin, breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, the monster didn't show up at this time. If we really had to fight in the water, I'm afraid even ten more people wouldn't be its match."
"But ten more people will feed it, and it won't eat us anymore." Arthur's joke made everyone's tense spirits relax a little. After laughing, Thomas picked up the pole and paddled the boat to the tree where Jules was.
After taking Jules aboard, Jules finally found time to ask, "Who are these strangers, Thomas?"
Only then did Lin Yan see Jules's appearance clearly.
Like Thomas, Jules is also a black man, but he looks young, probably only in his twenties.
Thomas just wanted to leave this place, so he responded casually: "I met a few new friends recently. I'll explain to you when I get back."
"Jules, did you really see the giant alligator that was rumored?" Dutch asked curiously.
Recalling what happened just now, Jules' body couldn't help but tremble twice, and he nodded vigorously: "It's true, that crocodile is twice as big as the largest alligator I have ever seen, and twice as ferocious. When I saw it just now, I was lying on the side of the boat to check the shrimp cage. It swam over and just hit it lightly, and the boat was almost overturned by it. After it knocked me into the water, I swam forward desperately until I climbed up the tree to escape. After I climbed the tree, I had time to look back. Believe me, it was really as I said..."
Before Jules finished speaking, the boat under everyone's feet shook violently, and Jules shouted reflexively: "It's coming! It's coming again!"
"Haha..." Thomas laughed out loud at his old friend's reaction. After stopping laughing, he comforted him, "Relax, I just hit a tree stump under the water. There are three more people on the boat now. The draft of this boat must be much deeper than usual."
"So can this ship still move now?" Dutch asked him.
"Of course." Thomas put down the pole and patted Jules on the back. "It just depends on Jules to pull the boat out of this place."
"That's the worst idea I've ever heard," Jules muttered. "I almost died just now. Can't someone else go?"
Thomas spread his hands and said, "Do you still want to count on an old man like me who is about to be buried? Well, let's go. These three strangers are all carrying guns. Even if the crocodile really comes, we can scare it away."
Although Jules was still afraid of the dangers that might appear in the waters at any time, the three gun-carrying strangers mentioned by Thomas gave him some courage. He took a deep breath, jumped into the water resolutely, grabbed the rope at the bow and put it on his shoulder, and became a tracker.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yan's mind unconsciously rang with that popular song from several years ago: Sister, you sit on the bow...
Jules and Thomas, one pulling in front and the other pushing the boat with a pole, took a lot of effort to get the boat off the stump.
"Okay, you can come back now," Thomas shouted to Jules, leaning on the pole.
Upon hearing this, Jules turned around and walked towards the boat, but before he took a step, the people on the boat saw his body suddenly sink into the water as if pulled hard by something in the water.
"Damn, it turns out what he said was true..." Dutch's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Jules!" Thomas panicked when he saw this scene. He was the one who asked the young man to pull the boat. If something really happened to the other party, he would have to pay for it.
"No, I have to save him!" Thinking of this, he put down the pole and prepared to jump into the water to save people.
"No, no, you are still responsible for controlling this ship," Dutch reached out and grabbed him, then his eyes swept from Arthur and Lin Yan in turn, finally stopping at Arthur: "Arthur will go to save him."
"Me?" When Arthur heard Dutch asking him to go, his voice became much higher. Lin Yan could hear Arthur's dissatisfaction just from this one word.
"Forget it, I'll go." He volunteered, "Your ability to act and react is definitely not as good as a young man like me."
Without waiting for Dutch and Arthur to reply, Lin Yan jumped into the water without hesitation.
[Ding! Trigger hidden mission: Find Jules within two minutes and bring him back to the ship.]
Lin Yan's action not only won him a wave of favor from Dutch and Arthur, but also triggered a hidden mission. However, the time for this mission was tight, so he didn't bother to look at the mission reward. After getting into the water, he used his hands and feet to walk towards the place where Jules disappeared.
On the boat, Dutch gave Arthur a reproachful look, and then encouraged Lin Yan from behind: "Don't worry, kid, Arthur and I will cover you on the boat."
Arthur expressed his concern with practical actions and he had already pulled out his gun.
