Coming to an uninhabited corner, Gao Yi looked at Ah Shen with a nervous look on his face.
"Mr. Gao, I feel...a little tired."
Ah Shen leaned against the wall, with a weak voice: "It's like... it's like I haven't rested for a long time."
"My eyelids... are so heavy... I really want to close them for a while."
"No, you can't close it, you must hold it back!"
Gao Yi wanted to step forward, but suddenly stopped in place.
Now that Ah Shen has contracted this disease due to contact with crabs, what about himself? If he comes into direct contact with them without any precautions, will he also be in danger of being infected?
For a moment, he was in a dilemma.
To say that I don't mind is a complete lie.
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Knowing that it will lead to his own death, Gao Yi will not expect any miracles to happen during contact. Now he can only think about how to pull the other person back from the abyss of death.
.
Gao Yi kept scanning the inventory projection in front of him, and finally found a solution.
"[Deep Sea Agent]."
This was a strange painting that I redeemed for Ah Shen on May Day, but because Donghai City had almost no access to water, they both rarely used this thing, but they didn't expect it to come in handy at this time today.
Gao Yi clicked on the details of the different paintings.
Sure enough, among the many additions, he found the entry he really wanted.
When entering an extremely humid environment, the incomplete deep diver form is unlocked. Ah Shen returns to his original appearance and gains: Death Resistance +1, Longevity +3, Water Talent +3, Building Cells +1, Scuba Hunting +
3.
That’s right!
That’s it!
Looking at the thing called [Death Resistance], Gao Yi was slightly excited.
Each creature has a different tolerance for death, and deep divers are the most special type among them. Without external interference, their lifespan is almost endless, which also illustrates the strong vitality of this group.
As a special individual, Ah Shen adapted to the dry land with the help of props, but there are pros and cons. What Gao Yi wants to do now is to restore the rights granted by the gods to their species to enjoy the ocean and the times.
"A Shen! Wake up!"
Gao Yi pushed the shared bicycle over and motioned for Ah Shen to get in: "I'll take you to the beach. You've been on land for too long, and you've almost lost the advantage of your tribe."
"Clan...group?"
Ah Shen struggled to get into the pocket of the car. Gao Yi was already pedaling his bicycle towards the nearby water area. Fortunately, it was still early and there was not much traffic on the road. In less than a quarter of an hour after going at full speed, the two of them were already there.
We came to a beach full of rocks.
The environment here is no better than a beach, there are no fine sand grains, only large rocks stand in sequence, and the tide continues to flow through it, day after day.
Finding a puddle up to his waist, Gao Yi hurriedly put Ah Shen into it. A wave hit him from the distance, and his entire body was immediately submerged in the sea water.
【Deep Sea Agent】
——Switching successful!
Gao Yi looked at his feet without blinking, waiting for Ah Shen to break the curse of death and wake up from the sea again.
A minute passed.
The originally calm water surface rippled again.
Wow!
A high ridge with scales suddenly appeared, and then the trembling gills on the fish's cheeks emerged from it. Ah Shen, who had returned to his original appearance as a deep diver, was now wearing an agent-style shirt, standing quietly in the water
.
A lantern hangs from its left waist, and its dim light seems to penetrate the shadow of the sea water beneath its feet.
On the right waist is a special pistol, and there is a fighting dagger hidden in the lower trouser leg. At first glance, it looks like the descendant of man and the devil has awakened from his fate and is making the final decision between reason and nature.
"A Shen?"
Gao Yi looked at this guy who was no less than two meters tall and asked tentatively: "How do you feel?"
Having reached this point, he actually already had a premonition in his mind.
"I feel good."
Ah Shen replied in a low voice, but his accent had unconsciously become much more obscure: "Mr. Gao, now I can vaguely feel the existence of that weird energy."
"It seems to consume life."
"Washing away life?"
Hearing Ah Shen's feelings, Gao Yi was stunned, and then his expression changed slightly: "You said, it is actually a kind of energy, not microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria?"
"right."
Ah Shen closed his eyes and felt with all his heart: "It is like the opposite of life, the two are in constant contact and loss."
"Isn't that death?!" Gao Yi murmured.
Ah Shen nodded: "Yes, calling it 'death' is indeed very appropriate."
"It turns out that this is the truth about the disease in the sea!"
Gao Yi listed the previously unknown points one by one: "This energy is transmitted following contact, and first affects the operation of the food chain. Seabirds that feed on fish and crabs will die suddenly because they consume too much
Death, the total amount of life finally cannot be offset..."
"As for those who may ingest dead fish, because the size of a single fish is too small, or the death energy has just been exhausted, eating one meal is completely acceptable for a person at this level of life, and at most it will only cause an inexplicable serious illness.
A..."
"But that big ray is different. The lifeguard completely shouldered the excess death energy in its body because of contact with one person, which led to its death!"
It's like all living things have their own health bar. Death energy is like damage that acts directly on the health bar. Once the health bar reaches zero, it means that there is no more life.
"Do you still have this energy in you?"
Thinking of this, Gao Yi immediately looked at Ah Shen, who felt it for a while before saying: "There's not much left."
It saw Gao Yi's suddenly stretched out hand, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but was stopped by the other party: "Don't move, pass some of this energy to me, I also want to feel it for myself."
Ah Shen could only let Gao Yi shoulder his shoulder for a while.
A minute passed, Gao Yi withdrew his hand, and was just about to try to feel this energy called death. The next second, he noticed a thin black energy overflowing from the palms of his fingers, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
No trace.
"Um?"
"What's going on?"
The two looked at each other.
Why did this energy completely leak out of Gao Yi's body like water from a bamboo basket?
I thought about it for a long time.
Gao Yi finally remembered something and found it from the inventory.
At this time, there is still an undissipated halo on the pure white rose.
"It's really you."
Looking at this flawless white flower, Gao Yi murmured: "Does such an unreasonable death have no effect on you?"
"It's just that I never imagined that you would actually admit me... when did you start?"
