Chapter 230: Stuck


    "Shit shit shit shit shit!" Timothy uttered as fast as he could, panic had fairly enveloped the boy''s mind!


    He tried to find a solution but it seemed rather difficult right now, but there was one thing that he wanted to know. And Dana would be of great aid towards that matter.


    So he got close enough to her, and thundered through a question. "Can you sense how many humans are up there?"


    "I might, but trying it out might fuck me up!" Thetter answered, feeling quite under pressure already.


    Thisdy was a living... although fleshless, motion detector. Her senses were extremely high, which gave this good woman the ability, to pick out where specific nearby fish or humans were, without having to look at them.


    These senses worked all the time, and now she was doing everything in her power to suppress these senses; so the sheer amount of motion around here, does not push her towards insanity.


    Yet this boy was asking for such specifics, which inevitably threw all of her attempts of self-suppression to the trash. But it was understandable and she wanted to cooperate.


    Before the boy could have pushed her towards sensing the humans above, she simply yelled. "Okay I''ll try it out, but what''s your n?"


    Right after, he was bashed against thedy again! Although it didn''t seem like she hated that fact; in another perspective, it meant that the was being pulled out of the water.


    The weight against their bodies felt heavier now as well.


    But he still had enough space to yell out an answer, "I need to know how hard it will be to escape the ship! We will be pulled up there any moment now!"


    She could sense reason in these words, so the great-skeleton slowly began releasing her senses for the sake of testing the waters, regarding how many of these pping bodies she couldprehend.


    While at the same time, the hero thought of another solution. His jaws were powerful already, maybe they could be strong enough to cut a hole through this?


    So while thedy was putting in work to observe everything, he flipped to the side a couple of times.


    And throughout this process, Timmy used his upgraded bodily strength, to p other fish away for the sake of attaining a bit more space.


    It only worked for a second, but at least he could kiss the now instead of Dana''s head.


    And after a bit of nosing around, he figured out that the was rather easy to cut through, but it brought along other problems. This fishing tool was designed in such a way, that even a thin-bodied needlefish wouldn''t be able to slip through it.


    And the trouble didn''t exactly stop there. He had managed to take a bite through the, but its stic had managed to tangle itself on his two and only jaws.


    It was a hassle to spit it away, which ended up taking a lot of his time. So at this pace it would take an ufortable amount of effort, to break thedy free.


    That was when he saw a reflection that spread just a few feet underneath him. It helped make it apparent that they had left the sea-waters, and were just a few steps away from being dragged in the small ship.


    At that moment, a strong shout was unleashed by thedy that was restricted on his side! It likely had to do with her senses, she might have overworked herself.


    But thankfully Dana could yell out once more, "There are a lot of humans in this ship, we might die for real this time!"


    After thundering through that sentence of which she had forced out of her body, thedy gave hints of surrendering.


    But this defeat wasn''t exactly chosen upon will. She had swiftly lost consciousness, although it was difficult to understand how that was possible for a skeleton.


    Just when Timothy thought that the situation could not get worse, the system began putting in a few words of her own.


    [In a moment, you will see a timer on the corner of your vision]


    [Since you are stronger nowpared to thest time you almost suffocated, the timer has a few seconds more]


    [After that timer runs out, you will start losing health points]


    Unwilling to be sassy but anxiety encouraging him to do so, the hero thought out. "Oh great, that''s helpful!"


    And of course as it was described a moment earlier, a timer popped out. And it carried a red colour every time it''s numbers changed: but initially started out with a ck tone.


    [2:30]


    [2:29]


    [2:28]


    Before he could figure out a solution to this madness, he felt a loud rumble!


    And afterwards the that had constricted them, was being violently pulled away from these masses of fish!


    It felt nice to have the option of movement again, but yet another problem tagged along with the blessing of freedom.


    Dana was too tangled up in the so she ended up being dragged along with it ~ while her good friend could not do anything whatsoever, to prevent this sour fate.


    [2:03]


    [2:02]


    [2:01]


    He just couldn''tprehend how the situation led to this route, it felt random at best. But a bit of thinking helped him to realise, andprehend that this environment was far too dangerous,pared to anything they were used too!


    Timmy could see a human being approaching afterwards. Thankfully it didn''t carry any weapons, this human did not prove troublesome in any matter. Instead it was just analysing the hundreds of fish that had been brought on deck.


    After a few seconds, the fisherman shouted in their ownnguage. "I see a few sharks in here!"


    "Try not to push them in the hole!" Another one shouted out, while a few other of these humans began pushing random fish in a drop, just nearby.


    They were using a paddle of some sort to do the job. Seemed cheap at best but it didn''t fail to contribute.


    The most troubling matter out of this, was that right now these hairless apes were just a few feet away from the hero!


    They would eventually reach him and push the sea-pancake down the hole as well. That would make escape a lot more difficult!
