Chapter 688
Not long after Christina stepped on the raft, the 5 feet Scepter in her backpack suddenly shook violently, seeming to sense something.
She watched helplessly as it flew into the river with a whoosh.
The Golden Scepter stood out in the clear river. Jumping into the river instinctively, she stretched out her hands to grab it.
Fortunately, it was long enough. she grabbed its end, but it was powerful seeming to be alive, like a flying fish in the water, dragging her forward.
“Ah…”
“The Scepter ran away again.” Choked by the water several times, she screamed in shock, “Ah…”
Patrick and Raphael were shocked. When they came back to their senses, they only saw Christina being dragged forward by something in the water at an extremely fast speed.
It was so fast that on the raft they could only hear her screams and see her long black hair floating in the rive. Gradually, she disappeared.
“Let go immediately.”
Patrick remembered that the first time the power of the Scepter was enough to take Christina up into the sky. which was not something ordinary people could resist.
At this moment, she was like being tied behind an airship and being dragged to fly at high speed in the river. She choked on several mouthfuls of the water and was dizzy from the force. It was her instinct to hold the Scepter tightly with both hands.
“Christina, let go of the Scepter!”
When Patrick’s anxious voice came vaguely, she suddenly understood.
Just as she let go of it, her palms were immediately bleeding. It was not hard to imagine how fast it was. Enduring the pain in her palms, she watched the precious Golden Scepter rush away along the river.
Behind, the raft Immediately sped towards her. Raphael looked angry. “Get the Scepter back for me!”
He cared more about the loss of the Scepter.
The two Scepters he had finally gathered were lost at a stroke!
Christina didn’t care about his word. She swam against the urgent current in their direction, looking a little tired.
It was Raphael’s raft facing her. Raphael was completely provoked, devoid of his noble temperament. He said furlously, “Where’s the Scepter?”
Just as she was about to retort, Gary noticed a dark shadow in the water and shouted hurriedly, “Christina, there’s something in the water. Climb on the raft, Immediately!”
Everyone instantly thought of the big fish they had met in the swamp, which was a scary carp that weighed more than 100 pounds with two rows of sharp teeth.
She subconsciously turned around and looked back with a pale face. Indeed, a dark shadow swam towards her. It was probably the blood smell of the wound on her palm that caused it to come.
“Come on!”
Gary immediately handed her a long stick. She was ten meters away from the nearest raft, but the thing behind her swam closer and closer.
Patrick’s raft was further away from her. He anxiously plcked up a gun and fired several shots at the creature in the river.
It was indeed that giant fish, sharp teeth like a piranha and flathead with two long tentacles, whose black body was smooth without scales, like a loach.
It died, and the river was immediately filled with dark red blood with a stinky smell.
Everyone was relieved then.
Christina continued to swim upstream. She exerted all her strength and grabbed the stick handed over by Gary. They dragged the stick on the raft, and she swam hard herself.
When she put her hands on the raft where Gary was, she suddenly realized, “It might be overweight plus me. I’ll go to Patrick’s raft.”
Gary really forgot about it since it was an urgent situation just now. The raft was tied up temporarily. After calculating everyone’s weight, they assigned personnel. Especially the big man Samba sitting on their raft, it couldn’t carry anyone.
Patrick quickly rowed towards them, and it would only take three minutes to reach Christina.
But in just three minutes, things suddenly changed. Perhaps the smell of blood from the dead fish was too strong, which attracted more fish to swim this way.
In an instant, shadows of all sizes swam towards them in the river.
Christina was still immersed in the river and looked ahead in horror. Before she could make a choice, Samba
jumped into the river. Without the weight of him, the water level of the raft immediately rose.
Gary, Patrick, and the others didn’t expect that Samba would suddenly choose to jump into the water. Before they came to senses, Samba used his strength to lift Christina easily on the raft.
Samba, on the other hand, grabbed the big fish that was rushing over with his bare hands and punched it in the head. However, this kind of fish was too smooth to catch. Cut several deep wounds by the sharp thorns of the fish, his rough arms and palms were bleeding.
Christina immediately shouted, “Samba, go upstream and they’ll use guns…”
Patrick had already raised his gun to kill these ferocious big fish. Due to the fact that the big man Samba blocked his sight, Gary, Crabbie, and even Charles grabbed their weapons and shot at the water continuously.
Samba immediately realized that he was in the way of others and immediately went upstream.
The big fish seemed to know the danger, with more and more dead fish floating on the river.
Perhaps everything had a spirit, and this group of ferocious big fish did not dare to rush towards them easily.
“Samba, come up.”
During a break, Christina waved and shouted at him.
Not wanting to hinder them from shooting at the fish with guns, he swam alone to the left bank of the swamp a little far away, where the river was shallow just over his shoulder. He stood upright and pulled a few sturdy plants with his hands.
Samba shook his head at Christina, knowing that he was heavy and might cause the raft to turn over if he climbed onto it.
Christina wanted to persuade him to come up because it was dangerous to be in the water all the time.
However, at this moment, everyone noticed a strange phenomenon. The group of big fish swam away almost at the same time as if they were running for their lives.
