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

However, no matter what, Zhou Wen still had to bring the Boiling Blood Coral back, but how to bring it back was a problem for him.

The most important part of Boiling Blood Coral is its coral polyps. Since coral polyps are living organisms, they cannot stay out of the water for long periods of time. If they are directly placed in the supply box, they may die over time.

Zhou Wenjing pondered for a while and came up with a not-so-good solution.

He first asked Jiang Haitao for 10 stones and 10 sand, opened the blueprint interface, clicked on the [Small Aquarium Blueprint], and then added the 10 pieces of glass he had obtained earlier to directly create the small aquarium.

The small aquarium is the same size as the seaweed growing box, measuring 1x1x1 meters in length, width, and height. The overall frame is made of stone, and each of the four sides is inlaid with a piece of transparent glass, through which you can clearly see the scene inside the aquarium. The bottom of the aquarium is also covered with a layer of sand.

After creating the small aquarium, Zhou Wen filled it with clear seawater, then opened the system interface and sent it to Jiang Haitao via private message.

[Brother Wen, what are you going to do with this small aquarium?]

Jiang Haitao was really confused by Zhou Wen today. One minute he was asking him for a wooden shield, the next he was asking him for food, then he kept sending him empty supply boxes, and now it was a small aquarium. He found that Zhou Wen was acting a bit strangely today.

[I'll leave it with you for now. I'll send you another coral later. Once you get it, don't delay; put it directly into your small aquarium.]

After giving his instructions, Zhou Wen pulled up the Boiling Blood Coral and sent it directly to Jiang Haitao through the system interface.

"Brother Wen, I've already put the corals into the small aquarium."

[Um... Brother Wen, is something wrong on your end?]

Something did happen, but now is not the time to talk. I'll tell you when I get back.

Okay, Brother Wen.

Zhou Wen had no intention of hiding the treasure cave from Jiang Haitao. Since he had chosen to trust him, he would naturally treat him as one of his own. Perhaps Jiang Haitao would also encounter the treasure cave in the future. He would tell him when they got back so that Jiang Haitao could be prepared in advance.

The Boiling Blood Coral has been successfully collected. As for whether transmitting it to Jiang Haitao through the system will harm the coral polyps, Zhou Wen is unsure, because he has no other way to take the Boiling Blood Coral out without using this method.

Alright, now that we've obtained the treasure of this space, Zhou Wen continues forward.

Behind this space, there was another cave. Zhou Wen, filled with anticipation, began to crawl forward, but this cave was different from the previous ones.

In the previous caves, there was usually only one fork in the road. In this cave, Zhou Wen had only climbed ten meters when he saw five forks in the road. Later in the cave, there were more and more forks in the road, making it a maze of paths.

Moreover, the water inside the cave had become muddy and slippery, as if one were crawling in a mud pit.

"Where is the next treasure space? Why are there so many forks in the road!" Zhou Wen complained in a low voice. He was now covered in mud and water, looking like a mud man.

Zhou Wen crawled back and forth in this chaotic cave for a long time before finally realizing that he was lost.

"Right-hand rule, right-hand rule... Screw your right-hand rule!" Zhou Wen looked at the forks in the road and his head was spinning.

"Damn it! Which way is right?" All the roads in front, behind, left, and right were similar forks, and the headlamp's light was already dim, so now he couldn't even figure out which way he came from.

Looking at the similar caves, Zhou Wen gritted his teeth and randomly selected one. He then used his fishbone knife to make a mark on the cave, leaving a trace so that if he came back later, he could avoid this path and choose another one.

Next, Zhou Wen began to crawl through the muddy cave. After crawling for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly felt a breeze blowing from ahead.

"There's wind! The exit is just ahead." Zhou Wen was overjoyed and immediately sped up. After crawling for more than ten meters, he finally crawled out of the cave.

"I'm out! I'm out! Hahaha!"

Zhou Wen screamed and shouted like a madman. Helpless, he tried to find a way out of the cave. As time went on, the oppressive feeling of the dark and cramped space made Zhou Wen really desperate. The pitch-black cave seemed to have no end.

"It's over, I can finally rest properly... Wait, what's this... There are stars in the sky?" Zhou Wen looked up at the starry sky and was completely stunned.

"Where am I? Am I still inside the Leviathan's mouth?" Zhou Wen asked, bewildered.

Suddenly a sea breeze blew in, and the salty, damp space made Zhou Wen realize that he had crawled out from another entrance.

However, Zhou Wen did not immediately climb back up, because this was the first time he had truly come into contact with the outside world.

The sea breeze blows, the waves surge, and the tides crash against the rock in layers. Zhou Wen looks out and sees the endless sea stretching to the horizon, with no end in sight.

Although it was night, the sea was not dark. The reason was quite simple: there were ten moons in the sky.

Of the ten moons, nine are light blue, and they are all the same size, arranged irregularly in the night sky.

Only one moon was deep blue, and this deep blue moon was enormous, almost obscuring most of the sky, making it appear as if it were right next to you.

"Why has my little rascal run off outside? Come back here!"

The voice of the illusory Leviathan suddenly appeared in Zhou Wen's mind, startling him. The voice sounded somewhat urgent, clearly indicating that Zhou Wen was too vulnerable and the outside world was too dangerous for the illusory Leviathan.

Zhou Wen was very obedient and didn't stay outside for long. He immediately returned to the cave and started climbing back. But after climbing for a while, he encountered two forks in the road and got lost. He really couldn't find the way back.

"What's wrong, sir? There's still something on the right that you haven't taken." The voice of the phasing Leviathan rang out again.

Zhou Wen's confused expression immediately turned into surprise. The mind-reading of the illusory Leviathan became more frequent, and he could act according to the mind-reading of the illusory Leviathan. So he crawled to the right as instructed by the mind-reading.

After that, whenever Zhou Wen encountered a fork in the road and stopped, the illusory Leviathan would emit a questioning voice, and he would crawl according to the prompts in the voice.

After navigating four or five forks in the path, Zhou Wen finally entered another space, but this space was filled with mud. The mud was long and folded into a pile, and Zhou Wen suddenly had a bad feeling.

"This looks so much like earthworm droppings!" Zhou Wen picked up a clump of mud and prepared to examine it closely.

[Ding! Obtained 1 Rock Worm Feces.]

"Ouch! Shit!" Zhou Wen threw the mud in his hand away. He no longer needed to observe it; the notification in his mind had already informed him.

Although Zhou Wen acted disgustingly, the mud actually didn't have any strange smell. If you ignored the fact that it was feces, it was essentially just mud.

After slightly adjusting his unease, Zhou Wen began searching the space. According to the inner voice of the transformed Leviathan, this was where the last treasure was located.
