Chapter 755: Sea Delicacies

Australia and New Zealand were located at the junction of continental plates and were prone to earthquakes in the surrounding seas. Earthquakes on the ocean floor caused cracks in the earth's crust, making them prone to oceanic volcanoes.

Not all ocean volcanoes had lava spillages. In fact, it should be said that most ocean volcanoes did not spill lava but they did expel gases.

These gases were very hot and were the kind of gases that Li Du had been exposed to. If it weren't for the seawater cooling them down, they would have sprayed him, and he would probably have needed skin grafts like Ivana.

After applying the ointment, Li Du got better. He was bored and wanted to go into the water. However, Sophie stopped him and did not let him go in the water temporarily.

A raft came up and Cruz finally smiled. ”Hey, you're a flying sea man? Isn't that cool?”

”How did you see that?” asked Li Du.

He had not been thrown overboard by the storm, so it would have been impossible for Cruz to know unless he had been right in front of him. And he just noticed that Cruz hadn't been around.

”You must have been a sea fighter,” Cruz said, laughing at his question. ”That's why I say it's dangerous. I suggest you get out of here.”

Li Du looked at him suspiciously and said, ”Are you stalking me?”

Cruz stopped laughing and said, ”Who's stalking you? I just have eyes, and I saw that your back was red and obviously burned.”

With that, he shrugged and went on, ”How could you get burned in the ocean? You definitely experienced the hot steam jet coming out from the cracks in the sea. The impact was big, so I guessed that you became a flying sea man.”

”That's a reasonable guess. Yes, you're right,” admitted Li Du.

”You have to be careful. There are a lot of cracks in the ocean around here, and every one of those cracks could spew hot steam. If I were you, I'd leave,” Cruz lamented.

”You don't know me, man,” said Li Du. ”I'm a brave man. I will conquer this sea, and I will be the best abalone fisherman here!”

He was joking, but Cruz took it seriously.

Staring at Li Du, he nodded slowly and said, ”Well, at least you have a brave heart. All the best, then. Be careful of all the cracks in the sea, I can only warn you.”

He sailed away like a lone ranger.

After this, Hans rose to the surface several times, and at last, he had caught a large black gold abalone.

He held it in his hand and showed it off, only to find out that there was something wrong with Li Du.

Knowing there was a hot steam jet on the bottom of the sea, he was horrified. ”Sh*t, fortunately, you were about to surface, and your back was facing the seabed. If your face had been facing it…”

Needless to say, the rest of the story was clear.

Li Du was also a little frightened because Hans was right. He had not thought of that. If the hot steam had been blowing a minute earlier, he would have been facing down. He would have been hurt and would have to wear a veil like Ivana.

So, that's why it was difficult to harvest the black gold abalone. The sea was nothing like the land. Threats were everywhere, all the time.

However, the payoff was so high that even if someone were as rich as Li Du, once he earned 40,000 AUD from black gold abalone, it became tempting.
