n
nSeeing Bell, the three otters widened their eyes and looked at Bell’s canoe with interest.
n
nHowever, the three of them did not take the initiative to approach.
n
nAlthough these otters looked very honest and looked extremely cute when they opened their eyes, Bell knew their true appearance.
n
n“Don’t be fooled by these guys’ appearance.”
n
n“It has a very famous nickname in Amazon. They are called river wolves.
n
nJust from this name, you can be sure that their personalities are not as docile as their looks.
n
nIf you are deceived by their appearance and approach them, you will definitely pay a heavy price.
n
nThey are very cruel and cunning.
n
nAn adult giant otter can even grow to two meters long, and have sharp fangs.
n
nMoreover, they are like a pack of wolves. They know how to cooperate. ”
n
nWhile Bell was talking, his canoe was getting closer and closer to the three otters.
n
nBell also tensed up, not daring to underestimate these guys.
n
nBell’s eyes turned cold as he stared at the three otters.
n
nEven the audience in the live-stream noticed the change in Bell.
n
nAlthough killing intent could not be seen or touched, everyone felt the presence of this thing at this moment.
n
nAlthough Bell had never killed anyone, he had hunted many wild animals.
n
nHe did not hunt them from afar with guns, but in close combat
n
nThe beast’s sharp sixth sense made the otters sense danger and immediately shrink back.
n
nSeeing that the otters were intimidated by him, Bell did not dare to delay. He quickly rowed the canoe away from the three dangerous little guys.
n
nIf it were on land, Bell was confident that he would not have a problem fighting ten of them.
n
nBut in the water, these three could already pose a fatal threat to him.
n
nThese otters were very agile in the water and could use tactics.
n
nIn addition, beasts were stronger than humans.
n
nEven if he had to fight the black caiman, Bell did not want to encounter these guys.
n
nIf one were to ask the level of their smartness, these little things actually knew how to use tools.
n
nThey had learned to use rocks to break open the shellfish to eat the meat inside.
n
nAfter rowing for a while, Bell looked back and realized that the three otters really had no intention of following him. This made Bell heave a sigh of relief. He said to the live-stream again.
n
n“Actually, in the Amazon rainforest, although jaguar, black caiman, and green anaconda are at the top of the food chain, there is a special group in the water who is not afraid of these three top predators. They are otters.”
n
n“A lone otter might not be strong, but they usually move in groups.
n
nWith tactics, no one would dare to provoke them.
n
nEven black caiman might fall to them sometimes.
n
nWith their advantage in speed, they will choose to play with the black caiman until its stamina is exhausted. Then, they will prey upon it.”
n
nJust as Bell said this, the water in front gradually became rapid.
n
nBell knew that he was close to the Amazon River.
n
nThis also made him tense up.
n
nIf he failed here, it would really be troublesome.
n
nCrash ~
n
nThe sound of water flowing kept coming from ahead of Bell.
n
nWhite waves could be seen rolling in the water from a distance.
n
nBell took a deep breath and began to adjust the angle of the canoe.
n
nBell chose the same method as before to cross this river zone.
n
nHe was going to cross it in a zigzag manner.
n
nThis was the safest method.
n
nIf he crossed the river in a straight line, the violent water would easily crush the canoe.
n
nThe broken line caused by the large waves hitting the water caused Bell’s canoe to rise and fall.
n
nAfter rowing for a while, Bell was surprised to find that his canoe was safe and sound in this water.
n
nOf course, most of the credit went to the external bamboo frame he had made.
n
nIts existence greatly increased the contact area between the canoe and the water, reducing the impact.
n
nIt was no wonder that the Siberians would install external support on their canoes.
n
nWhat worried Bell now was the vines tying the bamboo.
n
nThis thing might become loose under the impact of the water and fall off.
n
nThe audience in the live-stream watched as Bell kept moving up and down in the canoe.
n
nThey couldn’t help but worry for Bell.
n
nBut in such a dangerous situation, Bell’s canoe did not overturn.
n
nThis was unbelievable.
n
n“F*ck, is Bell going to create a miracle this time?”
n
n“This doesn’t make sense. Why hasn’t this thing sunk yet? Is Bell’s innate skill useless against the canoe?”
n
n“Didn’t Bell say he was going to cross the river diagonally? Why do I feel like he is floating down?”
n
nLooking at the turbulent river, Bell was full of adrenaline.
n
nAt the same time, he did not forget to glance at the audience in the live-stream.
n
nSeeing the comments in the live-stream, Bell answered generously.
n
n“Crossing the river diagonally is a skill.
n
nThe angle at which we choose to move diagonally depends on the turbulence level of the river.
n
nThe more turbulent the river water is, the lower the diagonal line would be.
n
nOtherwise, the cross-section of the hull will be knocked over by the waves. ”
n
nThe angle Bell chose was between 20 to 30 degrees.
n
nBecause there were no tools, Bell could not measure it perfectly.
n
nHe could only make a rough guess.
n
nBecause the water level was constantly rising, the surroundings were already submerged in the water.
n
nOf course, the distance he had to cross was less than twenty meters long.
n
nUnder normal circumstances, it would take less than three minutes to cross this distance.
n
nBut because Bell had chosen a relatively safe method, the journey became longer.
n
nThis way, the time spent might increase by ten times.
n
nBell floated in the rapid river for more than half an hour before gradually leaving the turbulent river.
