Chapter 599: Eat Her
"Oh my God, what is that monster? It’s terrifying."
"It’s so huge."
"Look, look, it’s been chasing that woman. Will it eat her?" The crowd watched, quietly sweating for Jiang Xue.
Shangguan Wenbin and the others were also very worried about Jiang Xue, silently praying for her. As soon as the Water Monster appeared on the surface, Mu Qiancheng aimed his gun at it and fired as it was about to catch up with Jiang Xue.
With a bang, the moment the gunshot rang out, the Water Monster was startled and sank into the water. The bullet flew over, hitting it in the eye.
The Water Monster, shot in the eye, was in unbearable pain and became violent again. As it lashed out, the lake surface surged with waves.
The people on the shore were shocked once more. Only then did they realize that the surge was caused by the Water Monster. As the water surged, the speedboats bobbed around violently. It became very difficult for Mu Qiancheng to aim accurately again.
Jiang Xue, hit by the waves, was also tossed about. As for the Water Monster, having injured its eye, it no longer dared to stay on the surface and quickly sank to the lake’s bottom.
However, because it was injured, even though it was underwater, everyone roughly knew its location because of the blood that seeped out.
Originally, Mu Qiancheng intended to kill the Water Monster with one shot. Who knew it was so cunning and reacted so swiftly that he failed to hit its head.
Jiang Xue also knew that Mu Qiancheng missed, but she didn’t blame him. Instead, she thought about how to lure the Water Monster out again or how to kill it.
Fortunately, the surge didn’t last long. Perhaps the Water Monster was too heavily injured, or for some other reason, but the lake surface calmed down, and everyone thought the Water Monster was dead, cheering immediately. Only Mu Qiancheng and Jiang Xue knew the Water Monster wasn’t dead.
Moreover, Jiang Xue, through Little Fox, had learned that the Water Monster had returned to its underwater cave. Now, killing it would be even harder.
After thinking it over, Jiang Xue decided to go down herself and kill the Water Monster. Of course, it would be best if she could bring a gun.
Fortunately, this time Mu Qiancheng came prepared with not only a real gun but also an anesthetic gun. Since the Water Monster was underwater, a real gun might not be effective, leaving only the anesthetic gun as an option.
So, once the water surface calmed, Mu Qiancheng had the police operating the speedboat return to shore while he jumped off the boat with the anesthetic gun to meet up with Jiang Xue.
"Xue’er, why don’t you go back first, and I go down to kill it myself?" Mu Qiancheng didn’t want Jiang Xue to take the risk and said to her.
"No, I must go with you. I know where it is." Jiang Xue shook her head to refuse, then said to the police officer who was driving the speedboat and waiting for them, "You go back first, and wait to pick us up after we kill the Water Monster."
After speaking, she and Mu Qiancheng dove into the water together, heading towards the Water Monster’s lair.
"What’s going on? Why are they going underwater again?" The person in charge was puzzled, muttering as he watched Mu Qiancheng and Jiang Xue disappear underwater.
The nearby people, hearing his words, echoed, "Yeah, didn’t the Water Monster get shot? Let’s just wait for its body to float up."
Shangguan Wenbin, upon hearing this, said coolly, "You think the Water Monster is that easy to kill? Didn’t you notice it was only shot in the eye just now?"
Upon hearing this, everyone went silent. They only saw Mu Qiancheng fire the shot and the Water Monster get hit, but they didn’t know exactly where it was shot.
