Chapter 362 Are You Human?Is this human?
Qin Zhibo, who was floating on his back, could only keep from sinking if he looked directly at the sky.

In the process of floating, the stacked clouds gradually opened up, and the stars began to reveal their appearance.

In the vast expanse of sky, Qin Zhibo's gaze involuntarily fell on an easily found star.

Three stars following Orion's belt, the first bright star encountered in the opposite direction to Sirius.
That is Aldebaran.

His body was floating in the Pacific Ocean, but his head was looking up at Aldebaran in the endless deep sky. Qin Zhibo's mentality gained unprecedented peace.

When he was staring at the pitch-black sea just now, Qin Zhibo's willpower dropped significantly, to about 20 or so.

And now looking at the shining Aldebaran in the sky, this part of the willpower that has dropped is rapidly recovering.

Qin Zhibo found that there were also vast existences, one bored him, and the other gave him peace.

But Qin Zhibo knew that the so-called tranquility was only relative to the environment he was in at this moment.

This wonderful situation seems to be in the gap between ice and fire, and a delicate balance has been achieved.

If you take a step forward, you will be hurt by extreme cold and frost.

Take a step back, and you will be burned by the blazing flames.

It is also through this "harmony of yin and yang" that Qin Zhibo's body can be like a flat boat, waiting calmly on the vast sea.

[Congratulations on completing the achievement task: stepping on the Pacific Ocean, looking up at Aldebaran]

[Rewards for obtaining 1000 general skill proficiency]

The sudden reminder from the system brought some unexpected surprises to Qin Zhibo.

This achievement task did not trigger a prompt, it was completed directly.

It seems that this "accident" falling into the sea is really worth the fare.

However, just when Qin Zhibo thought that this delicate balance could be maintained forever, a change that was enough to break the balance appeared.

Some discordant sounds suddenly appeared in the sound of gurgling water in my ears.

This sound is the sound of jumping out of the water, with a strong sense of ups and downs, breaking the silence of the surrounding sea.

It jumped up first, then fell down with a crash.

Although the voice sounded quite far away, Qin Zhibo's ears could tell that the existence that could make such a voice was not insignificant.

It is absolutely impossible to be small fish animals such as flying fish or skipjack tuna.

It should be a large fish, but it is not a shark, because sharks generally do not jump out of the sea.

Possibly a dolphin.
If it is a dolphin, then it is more lucky.

Dolphins are generally friendly creatures and will not easily attack humans, so even if they are discovered by dolphins, they can still float on the sea with ease.

The sound of churning water was getting closer, just when Qin Zhibo thought it was just a gentle dolphin, some new sounds were mixed in the sound of the water.

This kind of voice was something Qin Zhibo had never heard before, and it was difficult to describe it in words.

If it had to be described, it seemed to be a sharp roar from the throat.

Having played Plants vs. Zombies, Qin Zhibo knows that although dolphins' calls are also sharp, they are high-frequency, short, multi-segmented calls, and the timbre is somewhat similar to the screams of children.

But this sound is made in one go, more like a roaring zombie?

Qin Zhibo had a bad feeling in his heart, and immediately looked for something good in the inventory to deal with this situation.

Lord of the Rings!

Qin Zhibo immediately visualized the Lord of the Rings, and put the ring on his finger as lightly and quickly as possible.

On the surface of the sea, Qin Zhibo's body immediately became invisible.

But even in the invisible state, Qin Zhibo didn't dare to move easily.

Because Qin Zhibo knows that creatures in the ocean generally do not rely on eyes to observe, and most fish sense changes in water flow and vibration frequency through the lateral lines on both sides of their bodies.

In other words, as long as Qin Zhibo is still floating on the water, ordinary sea creatures can feel something floating on the sea.

Therefore, Qin Zhibo could only completely freeze his body, pretending to be an invisible reef, to avoid the attack of unknown creatures in the Pacific Ocean.

But this is only Plan A, after all, Qin Zhibo can't get rid of his own smell.

So once he couldn't be fooled, Qin Zhibo planned to take out the dusty holy sword of physics from the inventory to fight against him.

Of course, the time to concretize the crowbar cannot be now, otherwise the weight of the crowbar will sink with my body.

The roar and the sound of water were getting closer and closer, and Qin Zhibo, who was completely lying flat, was motionless like a dried starfish.

But Qin Zhibo is ready to draw out the holy sword of physics at any time to fight against this unknown marine creature.

20 meters.
15 meters.
Ten meters, nine meters.
Its speed didn't slow down because of the visual invisibility, and the increasingly clear voice made Qin Zhibo understand that it was coming for him.

It seems that there is no way to hide, so I can only do it.
Qin Zhibo's right hand was in a gripping posture, ready to wait for the moment when the thing approached him, then he concretized a crowbar in his hand, and swung the stick down with the greatest force with all his strength.

However, at this moment, a louder sound appeared on the sea.

Snapped!
The sound was extremely short and sounded like a gunshot.

Qin Zhibo's heart trembled, and when his brain reacted, he realized that his body was not injured.

And the unknown creature that was approaching him stopped quickly after the gunshot, and quietly dived into the deep sea area.

Qin Zhibo quickly released the state of floating on his back, put his body on the sea surface, and observed the situation on the sea surface.

On the dark sea, a lighted speedboat is like a bright star in the night sky, which is extremely eye-catching.

There is someone!
"Hey! Hey!"

"There is someone here!"

Qin Zhibo yelled, trying to attract the speedboat's attention.

And the people on the speedboat seemed to have noticed the movement here, and shone their searchlights into the sea area where Qin Zhibo was.

Qin Zhibo quickly took off the magic ring on his hand, released the invisible state, and waved to the speedboat in the distance.

"Here I am! Here!"

The people on the speedboat hesitated for more than [-] seconds, and finally adjusted the bow, heading towards Qin Zhibo's direction.

When the speedboat reached the sea ten meters away from Qin Zhibo, the engine stopped again.

The people on the boat shone the searchlight directly on Qin Zhibo's face, and Qin Zhibo had to raise his hands to cover his eyes from the strong light.

At this time, the people on board spoke.

"Hey!"

"are you human?"

Is this human?

Qin Zhibo was a little angry, but now the choice of whether to save or not is in other people's hands, so Qin Zhibo could only answer: "Of course I'm human!"

"A real human being!"

After hearing the answer, the people on board did not immediately rescue them.

Through his fingers, Qin Zhibo saw two dark figures standing beside the searchlight at the bow, as if they were discussing something.

Ten seconds later, the two finally made up their minds and rescued Qin Zhibo to the boat.
