Xiang Yang smiled as he watched Fang Youqun tinkering with things over there, while wondering whether he should organize some people to go underwater again.
After thinking about it, Xiang Yang decided to go underwater alone to explore the way. In this way, even if he encountered danger, Xiang Yang would be able to avoid it in time.
"Chen Qingsheng." Xiang Yang shouted.
"Captain." Chen Qingsheng replied immediately.
"I'll go down to the bottom of the water to take a look later. I'll leave the things on the shore to you. Before I come up, no one is allowed to go into the water, especially that kid Fang Youqun. You must keep a close eye on him." Xiang Yang said.
"What? Captain, you want to go into the water?" Chen Qingsheng asked in surprise.
"What? Are you still unsure about me?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile.
Chen Qingsheng quickly shook his head, "Captain, of course your diving skills are fine, but the water here is over 900 meters deep, and there were a lot of viperfish and tiger sharks there before, it's really too dangerous down there."
"Let's not talk about whether it's dangerous or not. I'm just talking about how deep the water is. The water is more than 900 meters deep. Xiang Yang, do you think there's any point in you going down?" Gao Chuang also frowned.
Xiang Yang thought to himself, let alone 900 meters, he could even go down 9,000 meters.
But Xiang Yang could only think about this in his heart and could not say it out loud.
"It's okay. I'm just going to take a look under the water to see if there are any fishery resources worth casting our nets. I won't try to be brave." Xiang Yang said with a smile.
"Okay, as long as you know what's going on." Gao Chuang nodded.
"Captain, I'll go get you the diving equipment." Seeing this, Chen Qingsheng had no choice but to say.
Soon, Xiang Yang put on the diving equipment, moved his lower limb joints, and dived underwater.
Those humpback whales surrounded Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang first greeted Big Head and Two Head, then touched the three unfamiliar humpback whales, and then began to sink to the bottom of the water.
From a few meters to tens of meters underwater, there are a large number of krill living in this sea area, and various kinds of jellyfish swim among the krill schools.
When he was more than a hundred meters underwater, Xiang Yang encountered several Antarctic icefish that were hunting.
Starting from 200 meters below the water, Xiang Yang seemed to have entered a life-forbidden zone. He did not see any fish in the entire sea area.
It was not until more than 500 meters below the water that Xiang Yang finally saw a school of viperfish.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Xiang Yang stopped and stopped diving.
Because Xiang Yang looked through the dark sea and saw a green seabed a few hundred meters below him.
On the green seabed, there is a huge marine creature with a fiery red overall color and white spots all over its head and tentacles.
At this moment, the huge marine creature was lying on the green seabed like a ginseng that had been magnified countless times.
Its head was on the ground, and its tentacles were all gathered together and scattered on the seabed. There seemed to be a lot of seaweed growing on its body, and it looked as if it was dead.
But Xiang Yang was sure through the eyes of the huge marine creature, which had almost no pupils and only whites, that this creature was definitely alive.
"Oh my God, what kind of octopus is this? It must be more than twenty meters long?" Xiang Yang roared in his heart.
Having been on the sea for so long, Xiang Yang has seen a lot of octopuses, including giant squids and giant octopuses.
But this was the first time Xiang Yang had seen a giant squid with a body length of more than 20 meters and a head that looked as big as an oil tanker truck.
As far as Xiang Yang knows, in order to capture food or escape from enemies, octopuses often disguise themselves to look like the outside environment in order to confuse prey or natural enemies.
No matter what species or size, octopuses are all masters at this, and they will adopt different tactics against different prey and natural enemies.
But at this moment, the giant fiery red octopus lying on the seabed stared coldly at the humpback whales in the sky, but had no intention of taking any tactical action at all.
Xiang Yang frowned, "Did they not see themselves and those humpback whales, or did they not regard themselves and those humpback whales as opponents at all?"
Xiang Yang shook his head. The eyes of an octopus are very sharp. It is impossible that the octopus did not see him and those humpback whales.
Then there is only one possibility left, that the octopus did not regard Xiang Yang and those humpback whales as opponents at all.
The opponent looked down on him, but Xiang Yang did not dare to look down on his opponent at all.
The octopus has a beak similar to a bird's beak, which has serrated teeth that can easily grind food into powder. No matter whether it is shrimp, crab or shellfish, as long as it is regarded as a prey target by the octopus, the octopus will stretch out one of its tentacles, flexibly grab the prey, and then put it into the mouth to easily grind it into powder.
Although the diving suit Xiang Yang was wearing was said to be indestructible even by sharks, Xiang Yang did not think it could withstand the bite of an unknown species of octopus that was over 20 meters long.
Moreover, as far as Xiang Yang knows, octopuses also have a special hunting trick called "parachute".
When encountering prey that is not easy to deal with, the octopus can spread out its tentacles covered with suction cups, quickly lock onto the target like a parachute, then pounce and quickly cover the prey, leaving it no chance to escape.
Xiang Yang tightened the bioelectric gun in his hand, but he began to hesitate in his heart.
An octopus of the same size is much more powerful than a squid.
Before this, humans had discovered a giant octopus about six or seven meters long in the Pacific Ocean, which could easily kill sharks larger than themselves.
Just when Xiang Yang was hesitating whether to retreat quickly or slowly, the humpback whales swimming around Xiang Yang finally discovered the giant octopus.
Perhaps because the octopus was indeed terrifyingly huge, the five humpback whales, including the usually reckless Big Head, behaved very cautiously. The little humpback whale consciously hid towards the water surface, while the remaining four adult humpback whales huddled together and slowly sank to the bottom of the water bit by bit.
When Xiang Yang saw this, his heart immediately sank.
If the big guy underneath was a squid, even if it was more than 30 meters long, Xiang Yang would not worry at all that the four humpback whales would suffer. After all, the humpback whale is one of the top overlords of the ocean and a natural enemy of squids and octopuses. Four of them would definitely be able to defeat one.
But the guy below was not a squid, but an octopus, so Xiang Yang was a little worried.
As far as Xiang Yang knows, when an octopus encounters a fierce opponent and cannot judge the outcome, it will use its "color changing" skill to change its color and even body structure, disguising itself to be exactly the same as the surrounding environment, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the opponent.
