Chapter 281: 281: Unaware of Life and Death
Shen Mo immediately ducked down, an axe flying out from behind him and smashing into the grotesque head of the Fish Monster with a thud!
The Fish Monster let out a squawk, seemingly in pain, retreating back into the water with a boom!
“Quick, get up!” Yan Qingwen shouted, extending his hand towards Shen Mo in the water!
As Shen Mo just pulled himself out of the water, the Fish Monster leapt again from behind him—-
A huge shadow fell over Shen Mo and Yan Qingwen. Both of them dodged to the side, one tumbling over the staircase handrail, the other retreating into the loft. The Fish Monster, mouth wide open, landed down, instantly smashing the wooden staircase steps, biting away a huge chunk!
Both men were swallowed by the water!
The water level kept rising!
In an instant, the second floor was flooded by rainwater!
Everyone scampered back into the loft, only hearing the house being bombarded, unable to see what was happening underwater! Everyone’s heart clenched in fear!
The beam of the flashlight swept back and forth. Apart from the muddled surface of the water, they could see nothing!
Teacher Cheng was anxious, staring at the water surface and fretting, “What to do what to do ”
Su Man stood at the edge of the loft by the water, holding her whip tightly, she shouted, “Elder Yan! Elder Yan, where are you?!!”
“I’ll go down and take a look!” Tan Xiao jumped into the water!
Bai Youwei shouted, “Don’t go!!!”
Before she could finish her sentence, Tan Xiao started to tremor! His body convulsed as if dancing, while the water surface flickered with blue light! Even Bai Youwei’s hands resting on the floor felt a numb sensation!
It was electricity!
She instinctively looked at her fluffy bunny, then with disbelief, looked back at the water surface!
It wasn’t the bunny!
“Come back! The fish can produce electricity!” Bai Youwei shouted!
As she finished the sentence, fear was etched onto everyone’s faces.
If the Water Monster could create electric shocks, what would happen to Shen Mo and Yan Qingwen underwater?!
Tears welled up in the usually strong Su Man’s eyes. “Damn it!” she cursed through her teeth, ignoring the danger of electrocution, repeatedly striking the whip on the water surface!
“Come out! You monster! Come out!!!”
“Have you lost your mind?!!!” Li Li rushed over, holding her and dragging her back to the depths of the loft.
Lun Ang, supporting his unhealed leg, stood up and shouted, “Goddamn! I’m going to fight it!”
——BOOM!!!
Half of the loft floor was blown up!
The huge Fish Monster had gnawed through the loft floor, causing Bai Youwei, Li Li, and Su Man to plunge into the water!
Su Man, quick to act, managed to whip out, the whip hanging from an iron wall lamp. She grabbed Li Li, and their bodies stopped momentarily in the water!
The whip loosened again!
They uncontrollably slid into the water!
Just before they fully submerged, Lun Ang grabbed the whip, pulling them up with all his strength!
However, the Fish Monster underwater twisted and gnawed on another big section of the floor!
The loft floor, unlike the second floor which was bricked, consisted of a thin layer of wooden boards laid over a steel frame, simply unable to withstand the Fish Monster’s gnawing and battering!
Zhu Shu at the side fell into the water hole!
Lun Ang hurriedly reached out an arm to catch her!
Teacher Cheng and Pan Xiaoxin also tried to help. But as soon as they neared, the floor beneath their feet began to crack. They had no choice but to crawl on the ground, each of them grabbing onto Lun Ang’s one leg, preventing him from being dragged into the water—-
Even so, Lun Ang’s body kept sliding closer to the water. He couldn’t hold up against the weight of three people, his leg injury was not healed yet, and the pain he was experiencing made his face twisted.
Zhu Shu bit her lip and suddenly let go of Lun Ang’s hand.
“Zhu Shu!” Lun Ang was shocked and reached out to grab her but only managed to pull up a handful of wetness.
Su Man and Li Li, one after the other, climbed back onto the loft, panting heavily, sitting with Teacher Cheng and Pan Xiaoxin in the corner of the loft.
Everyone looked blankly at everything in front of them.
Only half of the loft floor was left. The water surged in waves, gloomy and boundless.
Their companions were nowhere to be seen, their fate unknown.
