"What does the Town Suppressing King mean? I always feel like something's off."
"Fatty, are you sure you're not mistaken? Could this person be an imposter?"
"Impossible, he is the Town Suppressing King!"
The chubby kid insisted, but like before, even though he repeated that Qian Er was the Town Suppressing King, it always felt like half of his words were missing.
A normal person's statement should be: "Impossible, he is the Town Suppressing King, I saw him on XX, he looks exactly the same."
Qiang Wu and the others didn't think there was anything wrong with the chubby kid's words and continued their conversation.
"Looking at it this way, this island might really have something."
"Let's hurry up and search, and leave as soon as we're done. Something's not right!"
As the captain, Qiang Wu had a lot of say here. When he said this, the others nodded.
They stood up, and Qiang Wu patted the two-legged elephant: "Good buddy, we're counting on you!"
Then they embarked on the route that Qian Er had already seen countless times.
Soon, they reached the entrance of a cave.
"Woo--"
The two-legged elephant roared towards the sky.
"There are good things inside!"
An excited expression appeared on the captain's face.
The faces of several team members also lit up.
"Fatty, quickly summon your lantern frog!"
Even the words were exactly the same as what he had seen in the future, without the slightest change!
His appearance just now seemed to have only had a slight impact on them at the moment, and soon they returned to their original timeline.
As expected, a chilling roar soon came from the cave.
"Sea, jump into the sea, they might not be able to swim!"
Qiang Wu shouted and plunged into the sea. While he was frantically paddling in the sea, the few people behind him had already been torn into pieces by tiger crocodiles.
This time, Qian Er didn't go out to rescue them. He frowned, watching everything that happened.
Next, a space backpack crashed towards him.
Qiang Wu opened the backpack with some despair, but nothing happened this time.
At this time, a tiger crocodile had already opened its bloody mouth behind his head.
It's coming! Qian Er focused all his attention on the scene, afraid of missing any details.
He saw that Qiang Wu seemed to have a sudden inspiration, and threw the backpack behind him, desperately swimming forward.
The backpack also hit the tiger crocodile's mouth accurately.
This tiger crocodile chewed a few times, found that the taste was wrong, and tried its best to spit the thing back into the sea from its mouth.
The other tiger crocodiles were still chasing Qiang Wu desperately. Qiang Wu didn't dare to look back and swam forward with all his might. He probably had never swam so fast in his life.
Fortunately, the tiger crocodile itself was a bit clumsy. After all, nothing is perfect in the world. The amazing lethality was exchanged for a lack of speed in the water, which is why they are not particularly powerful.
Qiang Wu actually shook off these tiger crocodiles, which means that even if Qian Er hadn't appeared, he would have survived at this moment.
But in the end, he didn't successfully return home. He didn't know what he encountered later. According to the information given by Ao Tianshun, he died with his team members during this operation.
Qiang Wu was obviously frightened. He didn't know if there were any tiger crocodiles behind him, and he was still paddling frantically, not daring to look back to confirm.
However, after all, his physical strength was limited. Swimming so frantically, he soon couldn't hold on, and his speed visibly slowed down.
Until the end, he really couldn't paddle anymore and choked on a large mouthful of seawater.
"Cough cough cough... cough..."
"I can't do it anymore, damn it, let me die, I really can't do it..."
Qiang Wu gasped for breath, stunned for a few seconds, and looked back in disbelief. Where were the tiger crocodiles? All that was left in front of him was the blue sea.
"Hahahahaha, Heaven hasn't abandoned me!"
Qiang Wu laughed loudly. After jumping between life and death, his emotions were particularly excited. This feeling of surviving a desperate situation was so wonderful.
But soon, he discovered a new problem. He didn't know which ghostly place he had been washed away to by the sea.
When they arrived at that island before, they had a small boat, but now, he didn't even know how to find it back.
Without a boat, their team still had an emergency pet beast.
Although that duck was not a rare pet beast, it was a little stupid, a little slow, and couldn't distinguish directions, but at least it wouldn't drown!
Now, the owner of that pet beast was probably gone.
And now, he not only didn't have a boat, but he also didn't know where he was.
To make matters worse, because he had exhausted his physical strength, his body began to slowly sink...
He paddled desperately, but his strength was getting weaker and weaker, making it difficult for him to avoid falling down.
No way.
No, I don't want to die here. I, Qiang Wu, have the old and the young to take care of. My son is still waiting for me to bring him back the spoils...
At this moment, he saw a silly duck appearing in front of him somehow.
Isn't this the silly duck in the team?
"Quack--"
Without thinking, Qiang Wu grabbed the duck without saying a word, but because he was holding it at the wrong angle, he almost pulled the duck floating on the surface of the water down with him.
The silly duck struggled frantically, but Qiang Wu held on to it tightly, which made Qian Er feel a headache. If he grabbed it like this, they could go to the seabed together to see the scattered moonlight.
"Ten Thousand Transformations Demon, pull him up."
He said through the pet beast contract.
The silly duck suddenly slapped hard, and the huge force splashed high waves around it, and Qiang Wu was directly shaken up by the huge force.
Silly duck, is it so strong...
Qiang Wu looked at the silly duck catching his falling self in disbelief, and swallowed.
"Is that you, Da Huang?"
The silly duck in their team was called Da Huang because of its fur color.
"Quack--"
"Where is your master? Is he still alive? Where is he now, and what about the others?"
The silly duck turned its head, its clear big eyes looking at Qiang Wu.
"Quack--"
"...Forget it, you swim, I won't ask."
Qiang Wu looked at the silly big duck and didn't say anything.
"Take him to the place where they landed."
Qian Er issued the order again through the pet beast contract.
"I want to see what will happen when he returns to L City safely."
Just now, he tried not to save Qiang Wu, but he didn't expect that he would still survive. It seemed that no matter how he changed it, the only thing that changed was that short period of time.
His sudden appearance did not change the ending of the few people entering the cave and being chased by tiger crocodiles, and his no longer taking action did not change the ending of Qiang Wu escaping this disaster.
But if he hadn't taken action just now, I'm afraid Qiang Wu would have really drowned.
