I became more confident when I figured out what he wanted to do. The ability to find a creature in the sea is definitely stronger than us, so you might be able to meet the weird nests of mother and son and the grave of the Youwang Tomb. And as long as his gun leaves my forehead, it will not be so easy to lean on it.

After I was idle, I took a leave and went back with excuses. A sailor asked me privately if I was looking for an opportunity to kill these people? I said, "There is no need for this. I still need to rely on him to help do something, but everyone is alert. Everyone will act on the camera for the subsequent things."

I spent the night without any danger. The next day during dinner, the captain talked to us about the giant octopus. I heard it with relish. Then he asked me, "You probably met the Rage Leopard in that sea? Haven't you told me yet?"

I said, "Our positioning system and the chart have been drifting away with the sea water for a long time, so I don't know where the sea area is. But there is one phenomenon that I find incredible. It is that the Rage Leopard turned around and drove back when the engine was completely shut down when it was about to drift out of the storm area. Do you know why this is the case?"

Zhou Shuangping's expression changed as soon as he heard it, and immediately stood up and said, "Why didn't you talk about this earlier? This situation only shows that your ship was dragged back by some force, because the change of the ocean currents could not cause the hull to turn."

"You mean that there may be elephant-nosed octopus on the underside of the hull of the Rage Leopard? But if there is such a monster, why can we get on board safely? Could it be kind to us?"

The captain said: "Maybe there is not an elephant octopus under the ship but a tiger octopus. Although this female octopus is very powerful, it does not devour humans."

After saying that, he immediately ordered the newly promoted first mate to recalibrate the course, and then chased the Rage Leopard in the direction of the Rage Leopard. Although he was walking back to the back for a while, the time was not long. After a period of full speed, we could vaguely see the Rage Leopard floating on the sea in five hours. The captain immediately ordered all crew members to prepare for catching the "big fish". At this time, it was almost evening, but it was already pitch black in this dark cloudy sea area. Zhou Shuangming ordered the searchlight on the bow of the ship to continue moving forward.

Fortunately, the wind was stable at this moment, which was good for the upcoming "fight". All the crew members stood in their "posts" and made all preparations. What surprised me was that they did not hold guns in their hands, so they asked the captain: "You don't even need a gun, are you too big?"

The captain focused on monitoring the movements of the Rage Leopard with a telescope and said, "If the octopus is killed, it will be worthless, so it will definitely not be able to use a gun."

I said, "How big is this monster? Where did you put it if you caught it?"

The captain said: "Of course my ship won't work, but there are large ships that meet in the outer waters. When I catch this monster, I will contact them as soon as possible. This creature can survive without the sea water for a period of time, otherwise it would be impossible to get on the boat and eat people."

The Rage Leopard was traveling at a constant speed in the sea water. There seemed to be no abnormality on the surface. Until now, I didn't believe that there would be a huge monster under the hull of the Rage Leopard, but the sailors on the boat had already started to fish nets. The captain said: "This is a characteristic fishing net, with high-tech wire material added. Ordinary fishing nets cannot withstand the power of tiger octopus or elephant octopus. The mechanical rocker that drags the fishing net at the tail of the hull is also ready. Only this kind of thing that can generate thousands of kilograms of drag force can resist the power of the giant octopus underwater. Once the octopus is exposed to the water, it will be injected with special anesthetic agent. This is the step to catch the octopus."

"You can't underestimate the enemy. Are you sure you can catch such a monster?"

The captain said confidently: "According to the information, the overall length of the largest tiger octopus is about twenty meters and weighs about three hundred kilograms. The elephant octopus is short in size and not as long as the tiger octopus, but its weight is two to three times that of the former, and the dragging force of thousands of kilograms is more than enough." Suddenly he put down the telescope and said, "The Rage Leopard is no longer moving."

The sea water is not still, so the hull cannot suddenly stop in drifting state. The crew suddenly became nervous and all gathered on the deck to observe the situation. The Endeavor also began to slow down. After a while, the still angrily leopard was backwards towards us. At this time, it was far faster than the speed of forward. Zhou Shuangping's face changed drastically: "This bastard." Then he shouted to the cockpit with his throat as if he was burning, "Redirect the bow immediately to adjust the course."

I just felt that the hull was shocked, and the speed immediately dropped sharply. Then the hull began to tilt and turned around. I said wonderingly: "Who are we chasing whom? Why should we leave after finally finding it?"

The captain said: "This ship is obviously controlled by the octopus. I can't go up and collide. Once a ship crash occurs, the most unlucky one is us, and this has no effect on it."

"Let's just hide, why run away?"

"Will you hide, it won't adjust the direction? Driving a boat on the sea is not about driving on land and trying to adjust the direction. Just move your hand gently. The steering of the sea boat requires enough distance. Damn, even if the preparation is sufficient, it won't work without going through actual combat tests. This bastard is really hard to deal with." The fishing boat turned and took back the fishing net that had just been sprinkled. Then the roles of the two ships immediately reversed. The Fury Leopard became the chaser, and we became "fugitives".

Seeing this situation, I held back my smile and said, "We're leaving like this? Is this simply inexplicable?"

The captain said: "The temporary retreat is just for a better offense. I am trying to buy time for the next move. This is completely different from running away."

After saying that, he made a gesture to the sailor. The four of them turned around and went to the lower floor. After a while, they lifted a blue plastic bucket. It was full of weight. Several people looked cautious and looked like they were carrying an atomic bomb. The captain sighed and said, "I really don't want to use this thing, I'm forced by this bastard."

I couldn't help but say curiously: "What is it in it?"

The captain took out a mask from his body and handed it to me and said, "You will know then." Then the sailors each sent a mask, and then the ship speed began to slow down, and we went to the stern again.

As the Rage Leopard got closer and closer, the captain took the lead in putting on a mask and said, "Brothers, I have covered my mouth and nose tightly and implement Plan B." A tall sailor brought a three-layer mask and walked forward with a sad face, unscrewing the plastic bucket to the lid. Suddenly, a very odor-like smell immediately enveloped us.

I finally knew why I had to wear a mask. This thing smelled so bad that I had never felt. Although it was hard to say what kind of smell it was, it was a hundred times more smelly than the most unpleasant gas I had ever been in contact with in more than 20 years. I couldn't help complaining, "What do you have to eat to get such a smelly shit?"

The captain also had a look that could be pumped at any time and said, "This is not feces, it is the internal organs of dead fish and turtles. If they are piled together, they will naturally rot and ferment, and then stored in the warm engine compartment for at least ten days, it will be this thing."

"Are you planning to use chemical weapons to deal with octopus?"

"You think it smells smelly, this is the octopus' favorite smell. If you want to seduce it from the ship, you have to use this thing." As he spoke, the sailor used a long-handled wooden spoon to remove a spoonful of carrion organs from the barrel. The top layer of mucus was even bubbled, and he quickly poured it into the sea.

This move really worked. A huge string of bubbles suddenly rose on the dark sea near the "feeding" of the Rage Leopard. The captain stretched his eyebrows and smiled, "Animals are animals. I want to fight with me, but they are still tender."

After that, every seventy or eighty meters away, the sailors scoop a scoop of "feast" and poured it into the sea water. At first, they could only see bubbles. Then the Fury Leopard stopped moving forward again. We didn't know what happened again. We held our breath and observed the situation on the sea surface. Suddenly, two huge tentacles as thick as human arms rose out of the sea water. The color on the tentacles was indeed yellow and black, very similar to the tiger's mane, but the length was far beyond my imagination, and it was dozens of meters higher than the deck of the Endeavour.
