Chapter 396: Push her down and feed the octopus!
After a short rest, the salvage ship began a new round of preparations for launching under the first ray of sunshine in the morning.
Because Steve wanted to go to sea in person, the posture this time was even more grand, and it could even be said that everyone came out in full force. Not only were there a large number of bodyguards accompanying them, but even David and the lover who served Steve were no exception.
Based on the previous experience, the two deep submersibles arrived at the entrance of the pyramid without encountering many obstacles.
Su Mo naturally acted as the pioneer, followed by Steve, who was surrounded by a group of bodyguards, and finally the other adventurers.
The huge crowd filled the corridor of the pyramid. It took nearly an hour for everyone to leave the water and arrive at the door leading to the guard of the big octopus.
After this ordeal, Steve was already pale and needed to rely on a breathing mask to breathe. His half-dead look made everyone sweat for him.
But his physical strength was better than everyone thought, and he recovered a lot after just resting for a while.
So the group continued to set off, and soon arrived at the cliff.
Su Mo, who was walking at the front, immediately waved his hand to stop everyone's progress, separated from the crowd and came to Steve.
The rich man was slumped in a wheelchair with his breathing mask on. He opened his eyes only after seeing Su Mo coming over, and asked very weakly: "Are you there yet?"
Su Mo nodded: "The octopus's territory is ahead. If you say you have a way to solve it, let's do it."
Steve didn't speak, just winked at a bodyguard beside him.
The bodyguard immediately took out a flare gun from his backpack, walked to the edge of the cliff and pulled the trigger.
With the sound of a gunshot, a dazzling red light was nailed into the stone crevice in front, immediately illuminating the surrounding situation clearly.
Only then did everyone see the bloody scene beside the pool below, and they all felt a little uncomfortable in their stomachs. Steve's lover couldn't help but bend over and vomited.
At this time, Steve's bodyguards also began to take action. They took out their rifles from their bags and loaded bullets, seemingly intending to use thermal weapons to kill the octopus.
Seeing this, Su Mo said: "If this is your approach, I think you may have made a mistake."
Steve frowned: "Why?"
Su Mo chuckled, pointed at the pool and said, "I don't know what kind of octopus it is. It usually stays in the water and doesn't come out. It only suddenly activates when someone passes through the pool to go to the small door below. attack."
David didn't believe this nonsense at all, so he immediately took out some dry food he had brought with him and threw it under the cliff, but it was indeed quiet in the pool, with no movement at all.
"Maybe it's too small?"
David was a little embarrassed and immediately ordered his bodyguard to move a heavy object and throw it down, but the octopus still had no intention of coming out.
"this......."
David still didn't believe that there was an octopus that could only eat people, so he asked Steve for instructions: "Boss, do you want me to go back and get the raw meat on the boat to try?"
Steve shook his head: "No need."
With that said, he called Cersei and asked: "Madam, are there any records of this kind of creature in historical documents?"
Cersei shook her head first, then took out a document and said, "But I got a mysterious stone tablet at the entrance yesterday. After several hours of research, I have roughly understood its meaning."
"Tell me something." Steve said weakly.
So Cersei told the message she had deciphered.
It turns out that the owner of this pyramid is very mysterious. It is said that he can control the wind and rain and the weather. Before he died, he summoned an octopus from hell, which would destroy all creatures that tried to enter the tomb!
Before she finished speaking, David beside her couldn't help laughing: "This is probably a trick used by ancient rulers. They said they were the incarnation of gods, and they said it so mysteriously. It was not just to enslave the people. , you are still an expert, I am afraid you are a magician!"
Cersei said with some displeasure: "I just said what is on the slate. As for whether I am an expert, it is not your turn to question it."
David sneered: "Then how do you explain this octopus that only eats people?"
Cersei said with a straight face: "I heard that some kings in ancient times would raise some ferocious beasts and only feed them humans since they were young. If things go on like this, they will only eat humans. I think this may be the case with this octopus."
"Nonsense!" David cursed: "No octopus can live for thousands of years!"
At this time, Su Mo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted: "That's not necessarily true. Can't Glenling sharks live for such a long time?"
"you!"
David, who was slapped in the face, gritted his teeth and glared at Su Mo, but he didn't dare to argue with him. He just walked up to Steve and said, "Boss, let me get something to try."
But Steve just stared at him without saying a word. His eyes made David feel so scared that he couldn't help but ask: "Boss, what's wrong?"
Only then did Steve pat his head and asked softly: "David, how many years have you been following me?"
"It's been seven years."
"Then how do I usually treat you?"
"Like a reborn parent, I will never be able to repay your kindness to me in this lifetime."
David even squeezed out a few tears as he spoke.
Steve smiled and nodded: "Yeah, I'm really nice to you. Not only did I give you status, but even if you were fooling around with my lover, I could pretend not to know."
As soon as these words came out, David was taken aback and quickly retreated, but he was surrounded by bodyguards and there was no way he could retreat.
And Steve's lover felt like he was hit hard at this time, murmuring: "So you already knew."
Steve didn't even look at her: "Humph, how can you hide anything from me?"
The woman laughed miserably: "So what if you know, I might as well have spent two nights with David in a few years with you. Compared with David, you are simply..."
Before she could finish her words, David started scolding her: "Bitch, don't talk nonsense!"
As he spoke, he flattered Steve and said, "Boss, she was the one who seduced me. Please let me go!"
The woman didn't expect him to say that, so she immediately slapped him in the face, making her whole body tremble.
But David didn't care at all, he just looked at Steve flatteringly, hoping that he would spare him.
But Steve said at this time: "You just said that you will never be able to repay my kindness in this life. Now I will give you a chance to repay it."
David naively thought that his boss was giving him a chance, so he agreed without hesitation: "Okay, just say it!"
Steve coughed and pointed at his mistress: "Push her down and feed the octopus!"
