Chapter 519: Internal Breach
Chapter 519: Internal Breach
The blowhole of the Abyssal Whale was located on its upper back, similar to other whales.
Lindsey and a group of stone statues searched the area.
On a small hill within the island, they discovered a cave that resembled a volcano crater, leading straight down into the darkness below.
"This is it..."
Lindsey crouched at the edge of the blowhole, reaching out to touch the cave entrance.
Below, a faint stream of heat rose, likely the body temperature of the Abyssal Whale.
After countless breaths of polishing...
The passageway's surface was incredibly smooth, and unless one could walk on air, descending would be like stepping onto a straight slide.
"Lindsey, can we just use this hammer to keep hitting its body?"
A stone statue behind Lindsey spoke up, still concerned for his safety.
"Are you sure this is okay?"
"The gas this monster exhales contains deadly toxins, which are extremely dangerous for humans!"
Lindsey calmly nodded.
"Don't worry, I have a plan."
"Just use this hammer and keep striking its body through the hole I dug. That should do it."
The stone statue still wanted to protect Lindsey.
But in the end, it reluctantly left the top of the hill.
Lindsey watched as the stone statue departed.
He estimated that the statue was almost at its destination, so he took out a sturdy stone block from his bag and fixed it to the edge of the Abyssal Whale's blowhole.
Then, he tied a rope to the stone block and descended, gripping the rope.
"So dark?"
"Bangbang Fish Hammer... It can even knock out Red Sea mermaids; this should be no problem."
Lindsey climbed down the rope.
Soon, he was engulfed in darkness, and the surroundings became indiscernible.
He lit up the jellyfish lamp, illuminating the pitch-black passage.
After descending through several meters of soil, Lindsey had entered the body of the massive sea monster.
The creature's exterior gradually transitioned from brown to pink, further confirming to Lindsey that he was inside the creature.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Lindsey felt something was amiss.
The Life Essence within his body suddenly activated.
Without any attacks or petrification, his mind experienced a slight headache and dizziness.
"What's happening to me..."
Lindsey opened his data panel.
Next to his character portrait, a faint red negative buff appeared—【Carbon Dioxide Poisoning (Mild)】
"..."
"So the respiratory system is filled with the gas it's about to exhale?"
This was just a minor issue.
Lindsey calmly took out the 【Emergency Respirator】 and placed it over his mouth, taking a gentle breath.
Instantly, he felt refreshed, and his dazed mind became clear.
Combined with the powerful recovery ability of the Life Essence, the poisoned state was completely dispelled in an instant.
"The activation time of the 【Emergency Respirator】..."
"A quarter of an hour is enough!"
Lindsey quickened his descent.
After descending a few more meters, the color of the surrounding flesh changed from pink to white, and the downward path branched out.
In the area illuminated by the jellyfish lamp, massive cavities appeared.
Lindsey scanned the area and noticed what seemed to be sponge-like lungs.
Squinting, he examined them more closely and could even discern the path of blood vessels, resembling plant-like structures.
"If I damage its lungs..."
"Never mind, let's find the heart to be safe."
Lindsey released the rope and stepped onto the Abyssal Whale's lungs.
Lindsey's tough skin beneath his feet suddenly contracted and then bounced upwards, as if stimulated.
Lindsey quickly steadied himself, looking around vigilantly.
"..."
He waited for a few seconds, and the abyssal whale's body remained calm.
Only the lungs beneath his feet were reacting at a steady pace.
They contracted sharply twice before quickly returning to tranquility, maintaining an unusually consistent frequency throughout the process.
It was as if Lindsey had arrived just as the whale was about to wake up.
As if someone was about to knock this guy out with a hammer.
"..."
"The Bangbang Fish Hammer is indeed effective!"
A victorious smile appeared on Lindsey's face as he reached out to feel the trachea of the lungs and continued to explore further.
As he pondered how to locate the heart of the abyssal whale...
He realized that this concern seemed unnecessary.
As he ventured deeper, Lindsey felt a rhythmic pulse beneath his feet.
The body of the abyssal whale was pulsating in sync with the blood flowing through its veins.
This was the powerful beating of a heart!
Following this source of vibration would ensure he didn't take a wrong step.
Lindsey followed this most obvious 'road sign' and continued his exploration.
After a few more meters, the lung passage ahead had narrowed to the point where it was difficult for his body to fit. Lindsey searched around and, after several attempts, finally reached the closest position to the heart.
In front of him was a thin yet resilient layer of lung membrane.
"..."
Lindsey couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
Thump—Thump—Thump—
The strong and vigorous heartbeat was transmitted through the flesh and blood in front of him, reaching Lindsey's hand.
This was the immense power that could drive a body the size of an island! As he felt this power, Lindsey could imagine how terrifying this beast would be if it truly awakened.
The abyssal whale Solara, the oceanic nightmare Kruluru.
These two monsters each had their own dangers, and under equal conditions, they were extremely difficult to deal with, deserving the title of oceanic calamities.
"So, it's even less likely that you'll wake up."
Lindsey took a deep breath:
"One strike."
"It must be a single strike to finish it."
The stunning effect of the Bangbang Fish Hammer would diminish as the enemy's strength increased. When dealing with the Red Sea Mermaid, Lindsey had also frequently stunned the opponent to achieve control.
But now, facing the abyssal whale...
The stimulation from the lungs, even with frequent hammering, could still keep it in a deep sleep.
However, if Lindsey caused extensive damage to its lungs...
If the strike didn't work, the commotion might exceed what the Bangbang Fish Hammer could handle.
Lindsey scanned his portable bag.
The Crimson Horn Mistletoe wasn't suitable for the current situation.
So, he had a sudden idea and took out several meteorite ingots, mixing them with wood and obsidian to forge a Radiant Flame Hell Spear.
Of course, this wasn't the end.
At the tail end of the crimson spear, Lindsey attached a count of powerful items: two Ice Bombs, two Fire Bombs, one Enhanced Flaming Flask, and three portions of Explosive Powder.
At this moment,
Lindsey's hand began to flow with the red-hot lava of the Lava Jet Sword.
He transformed it into a spiral flame stream to increase its penetration and aimed at the heart in front of him, throwing it with all his might.
Whoosh—
The radiant spear instantly pierced the body of the deep-sea giant, disappearing along with the string of explosives.
And Lindsey...
He sprinted in the opposite direction without looking back.
