Chapter 1 Entering the Harbor

At this moment, the ship was about to enter a crescent-shaped bay-based harbor.

"Oh, shit! This..."

Lin Zinuo and the others were so shocked that their mouths were wide open in an "O" shape. Everyone was stunned by the scene before them.

"We're entering a seaside military base."

Su Mo was also shocked. The scale of this base was not comparable to the previous small base. Directly in front of them, at the harbor entrance, was a super-large steel structure building, somewhat similar to a dock.

Of course, the specifics were unclear, but the scale of this base made it clear that it was extraordinarily large.

"No way? Another military base."

Zhou Qian and the others swallowed hard. Generally speaking, this kind of military base was very dangerous. Especially listening to the fierce cannon fire in the distance, they knew how intense the attack on this base was.

"That's the reality."

Su Mo said in a deep voice, his head also aching. He was now in a bit of a bind. However, Su Mo still underestimated this group of girls. Now they were hungry, thirsty, and fearless.

Lin Zinuo gritted her teeth and said, "No matter what kind of base it is, let's go up first! We're about to starve and die of thirst."

"That's right! Let's take a chance."

Zhou Qian and the others responded one after another.

At this time, Su Mo spoke to dissuade them, "Don't. The exploration level of this base must be very high, and the danger is extremely high. There must be defensive weapons. If we're discovered, it'll be terrible."

"Okay, I'll stop the ship now."

Lin Zinuo quickly shut down the ship's power system and stopped the ship.

After the ship was stopped, Lin Zinuo said, "Then how do we get to that base?"

"We can only swim there."

"No way, Su Mo, don't joke with us. Swim that far? It's at least five kilometers!"

"Yes."

"Forget it, let's just charge with the ship. In our current state, we can only last for five minutes in the sea at most, and we don't even know if there are any monsters in the sea."

Lin Zinuo and the others gave up.

"No, let me try. I'll go up and explore alone, figure out the situation, and see if I can find some food to bring back."

It wasn't that Su Mo was trying to be a hero, but charging in was definitely unwise, and it would be easy for something to happen with so many people. Plus, their current state was really not optimistic, and they might all be wiped out inside. So it was better for him to go up alone and take a gamble.

After all, their current goal wasn't to capture this base, they just wanted to get some supplies.

"Su Mo, we know you've been working hard and don't want us to take risks with you. But in the current situation, even a swimming champion might not succeed, let alone you in your current state."

Lin Zinuo also tried to persuade him, a little touched.

"That's right, Su Mo, everyone has seen your performance all the way here, and we're very moved. Let's just charge in with the ship together. We're not afraid of death."

Zhou Qian also chimed in.

"Yes, Sister Zinuo and Sister Zhou are right, we might as well die together."

Qin Wang also stood up to speak.

Faced with everyone's concern, Su Mo was also a little moved, but he had made up his mind, he wanted to take a gamble. Whether in the past or now, he had never been afraid of difficulties. If there was anything in this world that scared him, it was being alone.

Su Mo looked around at everyone, and finally said firmly.

"Trust me, let me try."

Seeing that Su Mo was so determined, Lin Zinuo patted him on the shoulder, with an expression that said she was relying on him for everything.

"Okay! Then we'll leave it all to you. Su Mo, drink the rest of the water, succeed or die trying."

Su Mo didn't refuse. He needed to replenish some water and restore his strength.

So he drank the remaining half bottle of water in one gulp.

At this moment, Lin Zinuo handed Su Mo a bag of biscuits and instructed him with great concern.

"Eat some more biscuits to replenish your strength. Everything depends on you. You have to do your best."

"Thank you!"

Su Mo instinctively took the biscuits and started to open them. Halfway through opening them, he froze and looked up at Lin Zinuo in disbelief.

Zhou Qian and the others also looked at Lin Zinuo in astonishment.

Lin Zinuo's expression was a little awkward, and she said with a smile, "Don't look at me, this is really the last bag. And that's not the point, the point is that Su Mo, you should eat quickly."

Su Mo didn't say much, and finished the bag of biscuits in a few bites.

"Okay, I'm leaving."

"Yeah, Su Mo, you must come back alive! You can't just abandon us like this!"

Zhou Qian and the others looked at Su Mo with anticipation.

"..."

Su Mo didn't say much, took off his shirt, picked up a military knife and bit it in his mouth, and jumped into the sea.

Under the gaze of everyone, he disappeared into the distance.

......

----------------

Not long after, a stubborn figure on the sea was swimming forward desperately. Although the icy cold sea water and the extremely tired spirit were constantly tormenting every inch of Su Mo's skin and spirit, he didn't care at all, and kept moving forward bravely, his tenacious spirit never extinguished.

Along the way, he could see some scattered ships drifting in the harbor bay. These ships looked very old and should have experienced a lot of wind and rain.

During the swimming process, Su Mo was highly nervous. Although it seemed that everything was calm now.

But no one could guarantee whether some terrifying monster would pop out in the next second.

He wouldn't naively think that it was safe just because there were no monster attacks. The fierce fighting sounds nearby were the best proof.

And from the sound, he could judge how fierce the battle was.

But this wasn't necessarily a bad thing, because of the strong attack of those players. It was estimated that the monsters in the base would focus their attention there, and maybe he would really have a chance to take advantage of it.

Whether it was good luck or something else, Su Mo successfully swam to the giant dock. The top of the entire dock protruded extremely high, as much as hundreds of meters, and the whole body was made of heavy steel structure, which was extremely magnificent and spectacular.

However, the entire dock was closed, and a giant steel gate cut off the exit, isolating the sea water.

Su Mo looked carefully left and right, trying to find an entrance to enter.

Inadvertently looking up, he was immediately startled. He saw a ten-meter-sized fleshy tumor-shaped egg lying on the top of the dock. The entire tumor was constantly shaking. Through the turbid epidermis, he could vaguely see a huge monster shaking inside. Countless hideous and disgusting blood-red tentacles stretched out from the egg and plunged into the sea.

Su Mo's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly sank to the bottom of the water. If he was sensed by the other party, he would definitely lose his life.

He held his breath and swam a little to the side, looked up from the bottom of the water, and after confirming that the monster had no abnormal reaction, he re-emerged.

It was really a living ghost, Su Mo took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and began to look for the dock entrance or other access points.
