They weren't moving randomly. They were waiting for the prey to fall into the river and be their feast for today.
"What do we do?" Lu Shixun asked, his voice tight. "Should we shoot them?"
Ye Chen shook his head immediately. "We don't have enough bullets for that. Just cross the bridge. Once we reach the other side, their attacks won't be able to reach us."
Lu Shixun nodded quickly. "Right. Let's just avoid them."
Though it sounded simple.
But reality was far from that.
The moment they started moving again, the water below shifted.
The fish reacted.
Another burst shot upward.
Then another.
This time, they weren't aiming directly at Ye Chen or Lu Shixun.
They were targeting the bridge.
*Crack!*
One of the wooden planks shattered under the impact, fragments falling into the river below.
The bridge swayed violently.
Lu Shixun nearly lost his balance, his foot slipping for a moment before he caught himself.
"They're attacking the bridge!" he shouted.
