Chapter 78: Chapter 78 A Family of Three



```

Underwater, two moray eels functioned like engines, dragging Suming through the water at an extremely high speed. Suming didn't have to exert any effort at all. As long as he stretched both arms straight forward, he would shoot forward, with the underwater scenery zipping past him as if flying.

"I've become a superman underwater!"

If instead of water, it had been air surrounding Suming, at that moment, he would have looked just like Superman flying with his arms extended!

While Suming was having the time of his life underwater, the people on the surface were almost scared to death!

Because Suming had nearly 'had an accident' when he entered the water yesterday, Wang Jian She had specially allocated a batch of 'top-grade' communicators, which could not only locate divers within a short distance but also allow for simple communication with them.

"What's going on! Su, what's happened?"

"Su, if you receive this, please respond, please respond! Are you in danger?"

The urgent shouts of Mr. Song and Professor Chu came through the earphones.

At that moment, to Mr. Song and the others, it seemed that shortly after Suming had entered the water, he suddenly accelerated and started moving at a startling speed below the surface. They were shocked and thought Suming had encountered some danger, so they hastily checked the situation through the communicator.

Unable to speak in the water, Suming could only press the green button on his waist three times in succession to indicate that he was safe.

"This kid, could he be swimming?" Professor Chu was somewhat puzzled, looking around at several students with a bemused look, muttering to himself.

"Wow, he swims so fast, just like Phelps!" A female student clasped her chest with a look of adoration on her face, clearly a die-hard fan of Phelps, the swimming champion known as the North American Flying Fish.

An older male student's mouth twitched with a hint of contempt, shaking his head in silence.

As fast as Phelps, what a joke!

From the speed of 'Su,' Phelps might just barely keep up with him in a short sprint. But once the distance exceeded a hundred meters, no, there wasn't even a need for a hundred meters, probably just fifty meters, Phelps would likely not even see his shadow!

The real experts are hidden amongst the common people!

With the help of the moray eels, Suming swam incredibly fast, and soon he left the control center's detection range and entered a tributary of the reservoir.

At the end of the tributary was a small pond. Of course, 'small' is relative to the reservoir; in terms of area alone, this pond was probably not much smaller than Shuijun Lake.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The pond had been abandoned for many years and was rarely visited. To prevent fish from the reservoir from escaping into the pond, thick fishing nets were placed at the junction where the waters of the two sides met at the end of the tributary.

But at that moment, Suming saw a large hole in the net, obviously burst open by some creature. The hole was nearly two feet in diameter, and even with Suming's waistline, he could easily squeeze through, not to mention allowing dolphins to pass.

"Is the river dolphin in the pond?" Suming asked the moray eels, not so sure.

As aquatic creatures, the moray eels' brains weren't much more useful than a big head, and their ability to express themselves was just as vague; Suming could only guess as he went along.

"Cut the chatter and lead the way!" Suming decided not to bother guessing further; they must have brought him here with a purpose, so he simply let the moray eels drag him through the large hole in the fishing net.

The moray eels entered the lake and headed straight for the opposite bank with a clear destination in mind. It didn't take long to cross the pond, and the water around them became shallower and shallower.

Suming simply stood up, stepped on the muddy bottom, and climbed up the bank, dripping wet.

Suming took off his diving helmet, gave his arms a shake, and whoosh, one moray eel slid down his arm to his chest, coiling around his torso, while the other wrapped around his waist like a belt.

In front of him was a large expanse of reed marsh that had begun to yellow a bit, standing about as tall as a person. When the wind blew, the reeds made a soft whooshing sound. Thankfully, it was daytime; it would have been quite scary if it was nighttime.

A large swath of reeds had been knocked down in the marsh, creating a 'path.' Wet mud still clung to the flattened reeds, as if something had crawled over them, leading deep into the marsh.

"You guys better not be setting me up!"

Looking at the reed marsh pathway, Suming's heart skipped a beat.

After all, the Yangchuan area was known to have specimens of the Chinese alligator! If it wasn't a river dolphin but a ferocious beast like a Chinese alligator in the reeds, that would be just too ridiculous!

```

My spiritual power may barely suffice to deal with Yangtze Crocodiles, but that would be if they confronted me head-on.

The problem is that the dense reeds all around could provide cover for a sneaky attack if a Yangtze Crocodile were to launch a surprise strike from hiding, which would be really bad!

Suming worried, but the two crocodile fish seemed to say, "Don't worry, everything's gonna be alright," stretching their necks like they were swollen body parts, adamantly pointing in the direction of the path through the reeds.

"I'll trust you this time, but if there's any trouble, when we get back, I'll stew the both of you tentacle freaks together!"

Suming threatened the crocodile fish viciously, then cautiously grabbed a large stone from the ground and edged his way into the reeds.

Following the path that had been trampled down, after about seven or eight meters and a slight bend, a very low bleating noise came from the bushes ahead, sounding like a young goat crying out.

Relieved by the sound, Suming quickly ran forward, parting the reeds in front of him in one swift motion!

In the small clearing ahead lay three creatures that looked like dolphins, but with round heads—one large and two small.

Jiang dolphins! And there were three of them!

The largest dolphin was over one and a half meters long, and it had a large wound on its bare forehead where the bone was visible, oozing a mix of pale red blood and light yellow pus, giving off a terrible stench with several flies buzzing around it.

Its body was covered with cuts of all sizes, apparently inflicted while breaking through fishing nets.

The large jiang dolphin lay motionless; it was unclear whether it was dead or alive.

The bleating noises came from the two smaller dolphins, each only half a meter in size, huddled on either side of the larger one's body.

On the ground were a few fish the size of a palm. One young dolphin struggled to move its tiny fins, pushing the fish towards the larger dolphin's mouth as if trying to feed it;

The other youngster persistently nudged the large dolphin with its head, but the large dolphin remained still, causing the two little ones to cry out in distress.

Suming's arrival startled the two young dolphins, who stopped their movements and looked at him with fear.

Perhaps sensing a threat, the large dolphin, whose condition was uncertain, also weakly opened its eyes.

After seeing Suming, it struggled to move its injured fin as though it wanted to shield the little ones behind it, but sadly, weakened by severe injuries, its fin drooped down again before it could fully open.

Thus, the large dolphin could only look at Suming with cloudy eyes, filled with a pleading expression.

A single tear slid down from the corner of the large dolphin's eye.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

Suming quickly released three waves of kind spiritual power, enveloping the dolphin mother and her two offspring.

Unexpectedly, the spiritual power, which always worked wonders on animals, failed on the jiang dolphins!

Seeing Suming approach, the young dolphins didn't become friendlier but instead shrank back in fear, burying their heads behind the larger dolphin, trembling.

Suming was taken aback but then understood the reason!

The dolphin family wasn't afraid of him but was frightened by the two crocodile fish clinging to his body!

"Wait outside!" Suming grabbed a crocodile fish in each hand and tossed them forcefully out of the reeds, where they traced an arc in mid-air and plopped into the pond outside.

Sure enough, after throwing the crocodile fish aside, the hostile demeanor of the dolphins disappeared immediately.

The two little dolphins even dared to come closer to Suming, energetically raising half their bodies and struggling to bring their fin-like hands together in front of their chests for reasons unknown.

The two chubby little creatures finally managed to bring their fins together at their chests and, like worshipers praying to Buddha, put their hands together and incessantly bowed to Suming.

"Don't worry, I'll save your mom!" Suming nodded and channeled all his spiritual power into the jiang dolphin mother's body.
