Giant Fish Survival: I Can Hear the Giant Fish's Heart

Zhou Wen encountered the anchor worm on the fourth day, but his progress was actually three times that of the others. It was initially judged that the others would encounter the anchor worm on the twelfth day.

On the sixth day, eight people obtained algae oxygenation tanks from him. Based on their double progress, the eighth day is equivalent to the tenth day. They should encounter anchor worms around tomorrow or the day after.

If these eight people were killed by the anchor worm, it wouldn't be so bad, because they had privately traded algae aeration tanks with Zhou Wen. However, everyone knew that the algae aeration tanks that had been traded since yesterday were already known to everyone.

In other words, the first people to encounter the anchor worms are those who traded the algae life slots. Without knowing the situation, other survivors will inevitably blame them for the deaths.

In that atmosphere of fear and insecurity, even if Zhou Wen explained the reasons, no one would believe him.

Therefore, he needed to make preparations in advance, at least to prevent all those who traded algae oxygenation tanks from dying.

The best solution, of course, is to directly inform everyone in the world chat channel that he has been attacked by anchor worms, and then attach information about anchor worms from the bestiary.

This was to tell everyone that he was the first to be attacked by the anchor worm, making all the survivors realize that there are other, more dangerous creatures in this world besides the harmless spiky krill.

In this way, even if a large number of those who traded the algae oxygenation tanks died, he had taken preventative measures in advance, and he could also take the opportunity to sell a wave of spiked helmets.

"Let's begin once the Leviathan has finished feeding."

We're currently in the Leviathan feeding phase, which isn't very safe. We might actually encounter anchor worms or other aggressive creatures. To avoid taking any risks, we need to finish the Leviathan feeding phase.

After some time, the Leviathan finished feeding, having survived without encountering any danger.

All eight algae aeration tanks for Chen Xin were completed and delivered to her, and their transaction was fully settled.

So Zhou Wen prepared to begin his vaccination plan, but as soon as he opened the system interface, he received a private message from Jiang Haitao.

Brother Wen, you're my savior!

Upon seeing Jiang Haitao's message, Zhou Wen realized what had happened. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he decided to modify the vaccination plan.

【What's wrong? 】

[It's the anchor worm you mentioned before, Brother Wen.]

[It was so big that when seawater entered the space inside my stomach, I didn't notice it at first. Then it suddenly burst out of the water and grabbed my head. I was almost scared to death.]

Fortunately, I always remembered what you said, Brother Wen, and I kept wearing the spiked helmet, even while sleeping.

The spiked helmet blocked the anchor worm's attack, giving me time to recover from my panic and finally kill the anchor worm as Wen Ge instructed.

"Brother Wen, you have no idea, I was shaking all over, I was terrified. If I hadn't remembered you saying that anchor worms could be killed, I probably wouldn't have dared to do it."

[It's good that you're alright. However, from now on, the feeding phase of the Leviathan form will be unsafe, so you need to be extra careful.]

Will there be many more of these anchor worms in the future?

I was attacked by two anchor worms yesterday and almost died. It's probably going to get more and more dangerous from now on.

Two...two?

Upon learning that Zhou Wen had been attacked by two anchor worms the day before, Jiang Haitao imagined himself in that situation. He felt his heart tremble and his whole body go numb; for him, that situation would be a certain death.

"Um... Brother Wen, do you have anything else that can defend against anchor worm attacks?"

Yes, but you probably can't afford it.

Zhou Wen wasn't unwilling to help Jiang Haitao, but the only way to withstand multiple anchor worms was to wear a full set of spiked armor. However, no matter how kind he was, he couldn't just give Jiang Haitao a full set of spiked armor for free.

[Brother Wen, what do we need to buy? I'm seeing if there's any way to scrape together the money.]

At least two drawings.

Zhou Wen's price is already very reasonable. A set of spiked armor has seven pieces in total, and it's also a life-saving piece of protective gear, with extremely strong restraint against anchor worms.

The price of four blueprints is reasonable, and even if it's a bit greedy, one blueprint for a spiked armor would definitely attract some wealthy survivors willing to trade.

Upon seeing the price of the two blueprints, Jiang Haitao fell silent. Where would he get two blueprints? His current living situation was only slightly better than those survivors who didn't know where their next meal would come from.

After all, with the algae oxygenation tank given by Zhou Wen, he could get two supply boxes a day. Even if he was unlucky and got two iron ore, he could still exchange them for a loaf of bread.

"Here's the deal: you do me a favor, and I'll calculate your payment, which I'll then convert into armor for you."

Seriously! I'll agree to do any favor, no matter what it is.

Jiang Haitao was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation, regardless of what Zhou Wen wanted him to do. In fact, after so many interactions, he knew Zhou Wen's personality and knew he would never ask him to do anything too dangerous.

Okay, just say in the world chat that you encountered an anchor worm, and then attach a picture and description of the anchor worm.

After learning that Jiang Haitao had encountered the anchor worm, Zhou Wen decided to have him inform everyone about the anchor worm on his behalf.

Zhou Wen is currently quite famous among all the survivors; it's safe to say that no one can compare to him. However, being too famous isn't always a good thing.

Through watching the news on the world communication channel these past few days, Zhou Wen knew that there were quite a few smart people.

You can be lucky, but you can't always be lucky and always be ahead of others. If this goes on for a long time, people will definitely suspect that Zhou Wen has something going on. And based on those survival novels, they will make bold guesses and think that Zhou Wen is cheating.

Of course, it's not as serious as Zhou Wen thinks right now. His current lead is quite reasonable. Just like that person said, if you're lucky enough to get a good blueprint, you can instantly acquire a large amount of resources and widen the gap with most people.

However, Zhou Wen never thought he was particularly great or smarter than others. Rather than standing in the spotlight, he preferred to stay behind the scenes and be a nobody.

Since Jiang Haitao has also encountered the anchor worm, let him share the attention of the group. We can also take this opportunity to test whether Jiang Haitao is trustworthy.

Following Zhou Wen's instructions, Jiang Haitao sent the news about the anchor worm to the world communication channel.

At this time, the world's communication channels were still debating whether the price of two algae aeration tanks based on a single blueprint was reasonable.

Zhou Wen glanced at it and realized that Chen Xin was selling algae aeration tanks. To be competitive, she was selling the algae aeration tanks for the price of one blueprint and two algae aeration tanks.

This pricing may seem to be only 100 units cheaper than the total price of Zhou Wen's two algae aeration tanks, but it is actually much better.

The restriction on trading two algae aeration tanks from Zhou Wen is too difficult. You're competing with nearly 100 million people for those 20 algae aeration tanks. Even if you have the blueprints, you still have to grab one first and then trade the blueprints to get two algae aeration tanks.

Chen Xin's pricing is not only competitive but also reasonable, at least more reasonable than Zhou Wen's.

However, Zhou Wen's goal in selling the algae oxygen tank was not so that other survivors could quickly obtain two algae oxygen tanks and then get three supply boxes every day. The two had different purposes.

However, after Jiang Haitao sent out the message, this kind of news, which was related to his own life, naturally attracted everyone's attention immediately.

Three meters long? It can easily bite open a human skull... isn't that too exaggerated? It must be fake.

【Do you think this is Earth? In this world, isn't it normal for such large, dangerous creatures to exist?】

Brother, how did you survive? Can you tell us?
