The giant beast rushed towards Su Chen.

Finally, Su Chen was able to get a clear image.

It was not like a dragon from myths.

The beast had a lion’s head and there were no scales on its body. As for the bottom half of its body, it was like a snake’s.

It also had four pairs of claws, similar to those of an eagle.

At this moment, Su Chen was already thinking about the Thunder Blade that the system had awarded him this morning.

He waited for the beast to get a little closer before attacking.

However, the giant beast quickly spun around.

The whirlpool appeared to be pushing Su Chen away.

Nonetheless, Su Chen continued to chase after the giant beast.

Shortly after, he saw a glowing hole.

As the giant beast quickly entered the hole, Su Chen followed suit. The hole was actually a tunnel. It’s similar to a karst cave.

Once Su Chen entered the tunnel, it was as if he had arrived in a different world.

No wonder there was such a huge whirlpool on the surface of the lake.

This also explained how all the sunken ships disappeared without a trace.

It was all thanks to this tunnel.

The stalactites on both sides of the tunnel were emitting green and blue lights.

Even at the bottom of a dark lake, the lights were still visible.

With the light from the stalactites, Su Chen was able to find the other end of the tunnel.

The giant beast was heading there.

Su Chen could not afford to waste more time. Otherwise, the leader would die.

He used all his might and tried to catch up.

When Su Chen got close enough to the giant beast, he swung the Thunder Blade.

With a slash, the giant beast’s tail was cut off.

A purple liquid gushed out.

The giant beast twitched and loosen its grip on Da Ming.

It turned to look at Su Chen before escaping to the other end of the tunnel.

Just like that, the giant beast disappeared.

It was as if the giant beast got swallowed by a black hole.

Su Chen swam towards Da Ming and dragged him.

He brought him out of the tunnel and up to the surface.

At the same time, the sound of the system’s notification rang in Su Chen’s ears.

“Ding dong! You have successfully checked in at the black hole under the lake and received “Black Hole Protection Shield” as a reward! The shield has already been activated and it will absorb anything that attacks you!”

So, at the other end of the tunnel was a black hole!

The moment he saw the giant beast disappear, Su Chen already had an inkling that it was not an ordinary hole.

Su Chen could not help but sigh. The seemingly ordinary lake had already turned into such a state.

Meanwhile, the research team’s ship had already sailed out from the danger zone.

They were about to reach the shore.

Simultaneously, the surface of the lake had become calm again.

It was as if nothing had happened.

The contrast was so great that it seriously confused everyone.

They were still in a state of shock and fear.

One of the older experts regained his composure and said, “Is everyone alright? Are any of you hurt? Let’s do a headcount.”

“One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight…”

The expedition members stopped after counting to eight. Two people were missing!

“I thought only the leader fell into the lake?! Why are we missing another person? Who is it?”

One person called out, “It’s the civilian! I knew it was a bad idea to bring him along!”

“I saw him jumping into the lake!”

As they spoke, the ship had docked at shore.

A large group of reporters instantly surrounded them. They pointed their microphones at the expedition team members.

“How was it? Did you find the sunken ship?”

“What did the ship look like? Is it true that there were 300 tons of gold on it?”

“Did you guys encounter any unusual weather?”

The expedition members could not even speak because they were bombarded with so many questions at once.

“Da Ming, as the leader of this expedition, please tell us your thoughts.”

One of the reporters who had already interviewed Da Ming earlier was looking for him.

However, Da Ming was nowhere to be found.

The other reporters also began to notice the strange and solemn atmosphere among the expedition team members.

“Our ship encountered a storm at the center of the lake. Da Ming and the civilian who had volunteered to participate both fell into the water,” said the older expert in a low voice.

Almost instantly, there was an uproar!

“Then why didn’t you save them?!”

One person made a call to the rescue squad.

“Hey, someone fell into Boyang Lake! Please come and rescue them immediately!”

However, everyone knew the dreadful history of Boyang Lake.

This was a disaster.

The older expert spoke again.

“Everyone, please return home. Staying here won’t solve anything. I’ll wait for the rescue team.”

Upon hearing that, the other members packed up their equipment while the reporters put away their microphones.

Their heads were drooping as they prepared to leave.

“Look! There’s someone on the lake!”

A reporter exclaimed.

They saw a figure swimming rapidly towards the shore.

There seemed to be more than one person.

It was Su Chen. He was also dragging Da Ming along.

Finally, they arrived safely.

Su Chen handed Da Ming to the other team members and said calmly, “Perform CPR for him. He’s still alive.”

It seemed like another video was about to go viral on the internet again.

“So what if they didn’t find the ship? Everyone’s safe! This man is amazing! He’s practically a God!”

“Luckily, the leader brought him along. Otherwise, things would have ended badly!”

“Is this a plot from a novel? I can’t believe it!”

“Perhaps this was a ploy to fool us because they didn’t find the sunken ship. How was this man able to bring the leader back from so far away? He shouldn’t have enough strength.”

“Why would they lie? There’s no point in doing that.”

“He’s my ideal man!”

“Sir, may I ask…”

A reporter wanted to interview Su Chen but before he could say anything, Su Chen waved his hand and left.

In the taxi, Su Chen closed his eyes to rest until he arrived at the hotel.

Suddenly, he felt the taxi shake.

“Bang!”

Su Chen looked in the direction of the sound.

Not far away, a factory-like building was emitting thick smoke!

“Driver, go to the place where the smoke is coming from.. Hurry!”
