Chapter 446: Chapter 429: The Behemoth Disaster!

Translator: 549690339

On the sea outside of Dinosaur Island, players swimming toward the coast suddenly encountered catastrophic events.

The players swimming toward the coast were not just located in the small area near where William entered the water.

In fact, around all directions of Dinosaur Island, players were continuously entering the water and swimming toward the coast from all sides.

However, without exception, they were all attacked by various underwater creatures, with the number of casualties increasing constantly.

William hurried back to the small platform on the cliff, accepting the telescope handed over by his wife, looking into the sea, trying to figure out what the current situation was.

But the first scene that caught his eye wasn’t the growing number of players dropping from the sky and successfully entering the water.

It was—

The players who had been busy building boats on the coast were now scrambling into the sea, using their wooden rafts to charge towards Dinosaur Island.

The first batch of these rafts all started with two people, with an upper limit of no more than five people.

Larger rafts were not yet completed – as they were too large and progress was still far from completion.

As a result, seeing others already rushing into the ocean, they could only regret not having completed their raft earlier.

Shuihua was also very lucky to have boarded a raft.

The players organized by Camille Victoria had been making five rafts from the very beginning, and now all of them had successfully entered the water.

Shuihua got a seat because she felt that she had done less work than others, and in order to deserve this seat, she was now rowing as hard as she could.

Not just Shuihua, but all the players on the rafts were rowing desperately.

Many were shouting commands while paddling hard, like dragon boat racers.

Everyone wanted to be the first to step onto Dinosaur Island.

In this eager mood, they rowed their simple wooden rafts, creating an astonishing wave-breaking momentum. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Of course, among these “wave-breaking” teams, there were occasionally a few rafts that suddenly disintegrated in the water due to their poor construction, and the players on those rafts fell into the water swearing.

But even the players who fell into the sea did not give up. Clinging to the barely floating wood and life jackets, they still wanted to reach the island!

At this time, the advantage of the boat team became apparent. One of Camille Victoria’s “boat teams” also had a raft that split halfway.

But the players wearing life jackets went directly into the water, clinging to their teammates’ rafts, and still able to move forward. They could even act as human engines, vigorously treading water to accelerate the raft.

With everyone working together, one raft after another caught up with the wing-suited and swimming players, charging towards the coast together.

At this moment, the “navy” and the “air force” joined forces!

But their situations were very different –

The shadows underwater were becoming more and more numerous.

Players swimming were constantly attacked by sharks, cursing as they were bitten, ultimately dying and turning into light.

Even those who clung to rafts and swam in the water were no exception.

When the sharks attacked, Camille Victoria and Shuihua tried to protect their teammates by hitting and smashing with their wooden paddles.

But the blunt blows from the wood, even underwater, were almost harmless to the sharks and couldn’t prevent their teammates’ deaths.

When they made their rafts or even just entered the water, no one considered that they would have to deal with sharks, so now they don’t even have a sharpened wooden stick.

Their counterattack was almost negligible.

Fortunately, depending on the sturdy rafts, they had more than enough to protect themselves.

While paddling, they could only watch as the shark fins swiftly cut through the water surface, leaving behind sharp water lines that passed by the players in the water.

The next moment, red light burst from the player’s body, and after a scream or a curse, they quickly disappeared on the water surface.

These were just the attacks they could clearly see with the naked eye.

Some players who were swimming well were suddenly pulled underwater and never resurfaced.

A player who had managed to avoid a shark bite was swimming near the front, cheering and jumping for joy in the water.

A huge shadow emerged from below the water, centered around him, a blood basin-like mouth surfaced on the water, and then fiercely snapped shut!

It quickly submerged again, vanishing without a trace.

“What was that… thing!” A teammate pointed to the spot where the giant mouth had disappeared, exclaiming in shock.

Everyone turned their heads at the same time, but could only see the residual waves on the water’s surface.

“What did you see?” Camille Victoria asked urgently.

“A gigantic bloody mouth.” The viewer’s face still showed an expression of horror.

“Huh?” Camille Victoria didn’t understand.

But soon enough, her doubts were cleared when the owner of the giant mouth revealed itself once again!

And it was right in front of them!

The underwater Canglong lunged wildly, devouring one player and leaping out of the water right over their heads!

Everyone on the raft stood there, dumbfounded, staring up at the massive yet graceful creature as it flew past them at extremely close range.

Then—

“Boom!!”

The sound of the Canglong crashing through the water was like a bomb exploding right next to them!

Gigantic splashes followed, showering everyone!

Everyone got completely drenched in the splash, with Shuihua wiping her face in difficulty.

But they were still fortunate.

The least fortunate were the players on the unfamiliar raft next to them – they happened to be in the exact spot where the Canglong landed.

Just several minutes ago, they were competing with Camille Victoria’s team in a boat race. Now, all that’s left of them were broken pieces of wood floating on the water.

Apparently, the entire raft, along with the four players who were on it, had been wiped out and had gone to visit Yama.

On the raft, Camille Victoria, Shuihua, and their two teammates stared blankly at the spot where the Canglong disappeared. They lost all ability to speak while looking at the turbulent waters.

They couldn’t even muster an exclamation.

Witnessing such a ferocious hunt at such close range, its gruesome appearance, and the terrifying prehistoric beast—it was an indescribable shock to the heart!

Seeing it up close was nothing like watching from afar!

The impact on their minds was beyond words!

But this was far from over!

It seemed that the appearance of the Canglong was a signal.

Not far away, another giant beast with a slender, dragon-like body emerged in the water, scattering a raft and leisurely swimming on the surface.

It was even longer than the Canglong that had just appeared!

It didn’t actively attack, but any raft that dared to approach it was either rammed to pieces or crushed by its tail.

It was an ancient species that appeared after the extinction of dinosaurs – the Dragon King Whale!

Following suit was a monster that appeared in the shallow waters only due to Lincoln’s cheating.

Tentacles emerged from the water, wrapping tightly around a raft and crushing it in the blink of an eye.

Only when the players disappeared did the main body of the creature surface and revealed itself.

It was the ancient ancestor of the giant squid – the Toste Squid!

And there were more and more –

Melville Whale, Megatoothed Shark, Maui Dragon, Deng Fish, Slick-toothed Dragon, Kroe Dragon, Taishark, Belemnite…

One after another, these colossal creatures appeared, effortlessly tearing apart the rafts and leaving everyone dazzled.

They were not of the same era and would not have lived together in shallow waters, some of which were even natural enemies!

However, under Lincoln’s “the bigger, the better, the more, the merrier” aesthetic, they were all placed in the nearshore waters.

And during this time of high player activity, they all showed themselves in broad daylight.

Incidentally, causing a terrible shipwreck.

Within a mere twenty minutes of their appearance, the “Navy” was all but annihilated.

As a result, the time to reach Dinosaur Island was further delayed.

However, from this encounter, although nobody said it out loud, everyone had a vague consensus in their hearts –

Wanting to reach Dinosaur Island, being an individual hero probably wouldn’t cut it.

Even a small, elite team would likely be unsuccessful.

What the players really needed was an organized, large-scale landing operation!
