Chapter 87: Chapter 39: This Crossbow Shoots to the Left

Revenge on the Titan triggerfish, in Chen Wen’s view, only requires attention to two points.

First, approach quietly.

Chen Wen discovered earlier that this fish has a strong sense of perception!

Moreover, after detecting an enemy, they can keep an eye on every movement of the enemy.

It’s hard to kill them head-on.

Therefore, Chen Wen decided to launch a sneak attack.

Glancing at the list of aspects, Chen Wen quickly found a way to overcome this difficulty.

[Dark Crawling] and [Ambush].

[Dark Crawling] is perfect for use under the sea.

As long as you dive in from afar and stay within the coral reefs.

This aspect can be continuously triggered.

And [Ambush] further increases the probability of not being discovered.

With these two aspects, as long as you crawl over in advance, you can definitely launch a sneak attack very close to the Titan triggerfish.

Having solved the approach problem, a new issue emerged.

And that is holding one’s breath.

Although Chen Wen has [Gill (Sea Urchin)] which allows breathing underwater.

Others are not aware of this!

In the previous two dives with Bai Yachuan, both of them lasted about two to three minutes underwater before quickly surfacing.

If I suddenly hold my breath underwater for five or six minutes, won’t people notice the difference?

Chen Wen thought about it and decided to find a chance to forewarn everyone.

Just say that I have always been worried about Bai Yachuan, which is why I didn’t dive for long.

This reason is barely plausible.

The last problem is how to effectively harm the Titan triggerfish.

This encounter made Chen Wen clearly realize how formidable the scales of the Titan triggerfish are.

Using a spear to pierce the floating triggerfish, hoping to harm it is impossible.

You need to pin it against a hard object with a long spear and continuously apply force.

Only then is it possible to pierce it to death.

Otherwise, even with [Zero Frame Start], it’s difficult to inflict effective harm.

Moreover, there’s no similar aspect available now.

While Chen Wen was racking his brain on how to inflict effective damage.

In the camp, the place where weapons are stored caught Chen Wen’s attention.

Crossbow!

The production team provided a batch of weapons to the men’s group during the hunt for the Black Panther.

Although in the end, the Black Panther was taken down by Chen Wen.

The weapons remained.

Among them was a crossbow.

Could the crossbow penetrate armor?

Chen Wen thought and walked straight over.

Seeing Chen Wen’s actions, Yan Bian, who had been exploring these days, also walked over.

”What? Looking for weapons?”

Yan Bian asked.

Chen Wen nodded, picked up the crossbow, and said, ”Mr. Yan, is this crossbow easy to use?”

”It’s quite easy, just that none of us can shoot accurately.”

Yan Bian looked at the crossbow, also somewhat nostalgic.

Not because of its former owner, but feeling grateful that this crossbow allowed them to meet Chen Wen.

Chen Wen fiddled with the crossbow for a while.

Soon, he found that it wasn’t difficult to use.

After discussing with Yan Bian, he got hold of some crossbow arrows.

Chen Wen planned to test whether the crossbow arrows could be shot accurately.

This idea received unanimous support from everyone.

Others stopped resting and gathered around Chen Wen to watch him shoot the crossbow arrows.

However, since shooting is involved, a target is needed.

After a discussion, Chen Wen decided to use the pig as a target.

After all, sheep are relatively easy to raise; you can leave them among the bushes around the camp, and they will find food on their own, as long as they are tied with a rope and don’t get lost.

By contrast, pigs are a bit harder to raise.

Moreover, this is an uncastrated pig that loses weight the longer you raise it.

Also, after finishing the chicken, Lu Heng, after only a couple of meals of seafood, started to show tendencies of diarrhea again.

Thus, when Chen Wen aimed his crossbow arrow at the pig, everyone watched the scene with anticipation.

The crowd was quite large, adding a bit of pressure on Chen Wen.

He tried his best to calm himself, locking onto the pig through the aiming groove.

Pulled the trigger.

Thunk!

The pig was startled.

A short crossbow arrow was deeply embedded in the tree behind it.

The pig grunted.

Chen Wen felt a bit embarrassed.

”Was I standing too far back?”

Yan Bian smoothed things over, suggesting Chen Wen take a few steps forward: ”You’re new to the crossbow, go from easy to difficult, step forward and try again.”

”Alright.”

Chen Wen complied.

He walked a few steps forward, now about twenty meters away from the pig.

This time, Chen Wen knelt on one knee, holding the crossbow steadily.

Shoot!

Whoosh! Thunk!

Seeing the result, Chen Wen seriously stated, ”This crossbow’s trajectory veers to the left! I have every reason to suspect that this is He Chengguang’s crossbow!”

...

In a burst of laughter from the men’s group, they reached a conclusion.

Chen Wen’s attribute is the antonym of ”land immortal”—”sea and sky devil”.

”Damn it, there’s something wrong with this crossbow!”

Chen Wen cursed, throwing down the crossbow, refusing to continue!

Having finally caught Chen Wen’s weak spot, the others laughed recklessly.

Yan Bian also couldn’t help but say, ”Chen Wen, we’re good at close combat, why insist on being an archer?”

Lu Heng, smiling, picked up the crossbow arrow from the ground, mimicked Chen Wen’s actions, drew the string, loaded the arrow, stood where Chen Wen had the second time, and aimed at the pig’s butt.

Whoosh!

The pig let out a piercing cry.

Lu Heng, pretending to be serious, said, ”Report, sir! This crossbow’s trajectory is fine!”

The crowd laughed even harder.

Chen Wen, not convinced, grabbed the crossbow, drawing the string and loading the arrow.

The others restrained their laughter, continuing to watch Chen Wen’s actions.

This time, Chen Wen stood ten meters away.

Aiming at the struggling pig.

Whoosh!

Hit!

This shot was more accurate, hitting the pig’s front chest directly.

The pig struggled for only a few seconds, its cries started to fade, finally tumbling to the ground, convulsing.

The whole process took less than ten seconds.

This surprised everyone.

”It must have hit the heart, dying so quickly? Du Feng, go bleed it.”

Lv Guocheng said.

On the other side, Du Feng quickly went over to start butchering the pig.

Chen Wen casually put away the crossbow arrow and proudly said, ”Just teasing you guys earlier, I’m actually proficient both on land and sea!”

”Impressive, just a bit too close though.”

Yan Bian said, ”Usually, at a distance of twenty meters, livestock would be alert, and wild animals would sense from even further; you still need to keep practicing!”

Chen Wen nodded slightly.

He knew his level best.

That crossbow shot was actually aimed at the pig’s head, intending to land a headshot.

But it ended up hitting the front chest.

At this level, going underwater, probably five out of ten shots would hit, and that would be purely based on luck.

This won’t do, need to keep practicing!

Chen Wen thought for a moment, then piled up the bamboo cut from previous work as a target and began practicing.

The others not engaged in tasks saw Chen Wen being so serious and stopped making fun.

Instead, they offered suggestions based on his performance.

With everyone’s help, Chen Wen’s hit rate swiftly improved.

The proficiency with the crossbow also advanced by leaps and bounds.

...

While some practiced in the camp, outside the camp.

Zhuo Hongnian and Wang Zhi were leisurely strolling around the island with Yan Bian.

”How’s the spice hunting going?”

Yan Bian asked Zhuo Hongnian, who had been tasked by Du Feng these days to search for spices on the island.

Zhuo Hongnian shook his head, ”It’s not that easy, there are many plants on the island I don’t recognize, and whether they can be used as spices is uncertain.”

”Alright then, I’ll check around the island now, how about the two of you?”

Wang Zhi responded, ”I should have it under control. After the last attempt, I’ve been gathering experience these past two days, so this time it should work!”

”Okay, Little Fat, how’s the brewing going?”

”Okay, take your time to experiment.”

Just then, Zhuo Hongnian suddenly said, ”Mr. Yan, why don’t you come with us?”

”Tree Brother, would you come with us? We’ve found something really strange.”

”Okay, let’s go together and have a look,”
