The bottom layer, except for the uppermost edge, has been submerged by sea water, but except for the hole knocked open by the mutated giant octopus, other places have remained intact.

Many of the sealed cabins of the Argo are still intact, so the sinking speed of the cruise ship is insignificant. At this speed, it is estimated that it will take seven or eight hours to completely sink to the bottom of the sea.

Even if several surrounding cabins are blocked in time, there will be no problem at all if the Argo continues to float at sea for a few days.

The seawater under the stairs was surging, and tentacles flashed past, constantly stirring the seawater, as if waiting for Locke to fall into the trap.

"Why should I enter the field you are good at." Locke chuckled. Although he had many means to make himself as flexible in the sea as on land, it was not necessary. This distance was enough for him to cast spells.

The reason why there was no discovery of the magic of crisis warning was that, besides, this big octopus was not a threat to Locke at all.

"You said you had a bad choice of ship. If you had to choose the Argonaut, even if it weren't for my fault, you would eventually be killed by the protagonist of the movie who detonates the cruise ship with a torpedo."

Locke looked at the slowly rising sea surface with an expressionless face, and stretched out his hand directly in the direction of the head of the big octopus he sensed:

"Heart-piercing!"

"Roar!!!"

The next moment, countless tentacles suddenly stretched out from the sea water, slapping randomly as if they were strongly stimulated. However, as the invisible sharp blades released from Locke's side, they were all cut off and fell back into the sea water with a plop.

"Isn't this person dead? His vitality is quite strong."

Feeling that the opponent's life breath was still strong, Locke did not expect that this big octopus could withstand the heart-piercing pain. At the same time, he was surprised and decided to use stronger magic to kill this guy without hesitation.

Since there is a way to directly destroy the enemy, if you don't kill the enemy instantly and play a war of attrition, you either have an ulterior motive or you have been outwitted.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Locke used his mental power to lock the head of the mutated giant octopus in the gap at the bottom of the ship, and directly used the most deadly single-target attack magic.

The magic penetrated directly into the head of the mutated giant octopus, and the strong roar stopped abruptly at this moment. Under the power of Avada's Kedavra, its soul was shattered and it completely lost its life.

After killing the mutated big octopus with one move, Locke frowned slightly, because just now, he noticed that there was still magic power in the mutated big octopus, which meant that it was actually a magical creature, not a simple mutation. Creature, no wonder the first shot of Playful Heartbiting didn't kill it directly.

The magic power in this mutated giant octopus was extremely weak, but Locke still couldn't help but want to explore its origins.

'According to the setting of the Deep Cold movie, it comes from the deep sea, and its size is not big, maybe only as big as a golf ball.

But as it continues to rise, the surrounding pressure decreases, and its size becomes larger. However, this setting itself is unreasonable. If you really live in the deep sea and come near the sea level, you will be affected by the pressure. Drastic changes are dead.

But considering the magic power in his body, maybe this mutated giant octopus can survive just because it is still a magical creature? ’

But there were too few clues. Locke looked at the corpse of the mutated giant octopus and took it into his own dimension first, intending to study it later. There were only a few scattered broken tentacles left and he didn't bother to clean them up, so he contacted Lorraine directly.

"How's the situation over there?"

"When I arrived, Carlot Youying had been swallowed by a weird tentacle that suddenly appeared."

Lorraine said in a deep voice: "Not long ago, there was a tentacle that attacked me, but it suddenly retracted and didn't appear for a while."

Locke said directly: "That tentacle is the monster that hit the cruise ship just now. Now the monster has been killed by me, but there are probably less than a thousand people alive on the ship. This matter is not a small matter, so we should just give up on the kidnapping." , don’t become the one who takes the blame.”

"I understand, and I will arrange for my people to evacuate during the chaos."

Lorraine also knew that monster attacks would probably not be reported publicly. If the kidnapping was carried out according to the original plan at this time, the casualties of the three to four thousand people on the cruise ship would most likely become a ready-made scapegoat, even if there was a plan. There is a way to escape, but whether he can escape depends on the intensity of the federal investigation.

After ending the call, Locke turned and walked towards the cabin. At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly sigh that he was really busy during this vacation. After all, he didn't realize that the Argonaut was the cruise ship in the extreme cold.

After returning this time, I will probably have to undergo some interrogation and will not even be allowed to leave the United States for a short period of time, so my plan to go to Xiangjiang and then transfer to Dongguo will be postponed for a while.

With this in mind, Locke returned to the deck and heard Caroline hugging him and asking: "You are finally back. What happened? We heard a weird roar just now, but it seems to have calmed down now... …”

"I heard that voice too, but I don't know what it was about." Locke pretended to be ignorant. After all, Caroline and Leonard were still here at this time:

"I just went to the captain's cabin, but there was no one there. In addition, I found that the cruise ship's control system seemed to have malfunctioned, and there was also a problem with the communication system..."

"The communication system has also failed. Does that mean we have no way to call for help?" Leonard couldn't help but ask.

"There is no need to worry about this. I brought a satellite phone with me when I boarded the ship. After I discovered that there was also a problem with the cruise ship's communication system, I contacted the rescue department. Rescue personnel would arrive within eight hours at most."

"Then what do we do now?" Caroline then asked.

"Let's wait here for now. There have been various screams coming from the cabin before. I feel it's safer to be on the deck."

Caroline and Leonard didn't know why the weird roar didn't appear again, and they couldn't help but worry. However, Fleur and the others knew through mental scanning that the mutated giant octopus had been killed by Locke.

Although I don’t know why the mutated giant octopus at the bottom of the boat stopped screaming now, it’s a good thing not to scream. The right choice is to seize the time, recover your strength, and wait for the rescuers to arrive.

The eight hours Locke mentioned was actually very fast. After all, the Argonaut had already sailed far away from the port. This was considering that most of the passengers on the cruise ship were either rich or expensive, and the Federation paid enough attention to it.

Otherwise, if it is a request for help from an ordinary fishing boat or the like, you are lucky if the rescue can arrive within 24 hours.

"I've thought about it." At this time, Caroline suddenly said.

"What have you thought about?" asked Fleur next to her.

"Originally my dream wedding was on a luxury yacht, but now I have changed my mind. If anyone suggests that I hold a wedding on a yacht in the future, I will blow their head off."
