"You guys come back first! Connect the hook and lock quickly!" Shi Han said anxiously.

The ten-person team quickly connected the locks on their waists to the cables, and the ten people formed a string. Seeing that they were connected, Shihan immediately started the winch on the shore.

"Whoosh~" The cable dragged ten people to recover quickly. After exiting the tunnel, there were no obstacles, and the speed of the winch increased again.

"Quick! Catch the wounded!" Shi Han stood guard on the ice. When he saw the end of the cable, he immediately directed the response.

Everyone on the shore hurriedly carried the wounded and several other divers directly to the barracks.

"How is the situation?" Shi Han asked quickly after seeing the doctor at the camp checking it out.

"Don't worry, Commander, they are all still alive! It's no problem." The doctor was calm. Although it was thrilling just now under the water, the injuries were nothing. It is normal to lose your life frequently while hunting in the wasteland.

"A piece of meat was torn off No. 4's leg, but no bones were injured. The injury will be healed without delaying walking. The toxin of electric eels is not high, just give him an anti-venom injection. The trouble is that he was stunned and does not know the current. The injury didn’t damage his brain.”

The doctor checked No. 7 again and said:

"No. 7 was simply stunned. Fortunately, the diving suit also has certain insulation, so he should be able to wake up later."

Shi Han nodded and said, "Okay, let's arrange a vehicle to send them back to recuperate! We will also suspend exploration."

Shihan felt a little guilty because he actually agreed to let them explore alone in the dangerous lake. The reason why I can explore the bottom of the lake is that I have the protection of the dragon python!

But the giant dragon went after the electric eel. It had no communication equipment and had no idea what its situation was.

After waiting for another ten minutes, Shi Han couldn't help but pace back and forth.

"Commander, let us go down. We have communication equipment, so we can at least know something about the situation." His subordinates petitioned again.

They knew that they would risk death if they jumped into the water rashly, but they also knew the significance of the little dragon python to Shihan and the entire base. Without the little dragon python, they would no longer be able to explore the world under the ice lake, and the production of the base would also be seriously affected.

"No! The giant dragon has no natural enemies underwater. It can run away if it can't be beaten. You can't help at all!" Shi Han still stopped them.

Shihan connected the communication to the base. "You can make a bundled communicator with a speaker! It will be delivered tomorrow!"

After waiting for a while, it had been 40 minutes since the little dragon python entered the water, and finally the radar that was constantly detecting showed the display.

"Report to the commander! There is a creature approaching the cave entrance quickly!"

Shi Han hurriedly left the camp, and as soon as he arrived in front of the ice cave, he saw a small dragon python running out.

"Giant dragon!" Shi Han hurriedly rushed forward, reaching out to stroke the little dragon python's head and inspecting its body.

There were no obvious wounds on the body of the little dragon python, but upon closer inspection, some small scorch marks were found. It should be that the electric eel shocked the little dragon python.

The little dragon python rested for a few minutes and was about to swim towards the ice cave again. Shi Han quickly stopped him, "Big dragon, stop!"

The little dragon python circled Shi Han in confusion, and the snake letter he uttered showed some urgency.

"Has the underwater danger been eliminated? Have you defeated those electric eels?" Shi Han asked. But the little dragon python couldn't answer him, but Shi Han could sense its consciousness, so there was no danger.

"Okay, you take them down, don't go far alone!" Shi Han patted the little dragon python again and explained.

The giant dragon dived into the bottom of the lake again with nine warriors, and Shi Han stared at the screen and observed. However, where there are dragon pythons, it is still the same as before. No creatures can be seen, and the bottom of the lake is silent.

Coming to the tunnel again, they crossed the tunnel where the team was attacked, and then found the body of the electric eel, whose head was bitten into pieces.

Further on, more electric eel carcasses were found. Most of them had their heads bitten into pieces, and some had their bodies torn off. The blue lake water in the tunnel was tinged with traces of red.

The suspended electric eel carcasses were shocking. The small one was two to three meters long, and the large one was five or six meters long. It was no longer about the same size as a small dragon python!

Seeing that the front seemed to be at the end, the tunnel had collapsed and blocked, but a door was revealed next to it, and the little dragon python got in first.

When the team members followed in, the scene in front of them shocked everyone!

This seems to be a control room, about two hundred square meters.

I saw a huge electric eel about twelve or thirteen meters long in the middle of the space, broken into two parts, with only a layer of skin connected in the middle of the body, and the two body parts slowly rotated with the water flow.

There was also a slightly smaller one, with its entire head bitten off from the neck, and a trace of blood overflowing with the water.

There are more than a dozen electric eel carcasses around, ranging from three to four meters to six or seven meters! This is an electric eel's nest!

The little dragon python quickly swam twice around the bodies of the two large electric eels, and then pushed the team members closer to them.

"Bring the electric eel corpses back!" Shi Han seemed to understand. The little dragon python was rushing back just now, probably because he wanted the corpses of these mutated electric eels.

When the electric eel carcasses were dragged ashore one by one, night had fallen, and the little dragon python opened its mouth wide at the largest electric eel carcass.

It took ten minutes for the little dragon python to swallow half of the electric eel whole. Looking at the round body of the little dragon python, Shi Han said helplessly: "Take care of everything and rest for the next few days!"

Once the little dragon python is full, it will take at least three days to digest it. In the past few days, Shihan did not dare to let the soldiers go into the water again.

But it just so happens that you can wait for the base to send you new equipment.

Who knew that something surprising happened to Shi Han? The little dragon python was able to swim the next afternoon. Although its belly was still bulging, it actively asked to go into the water.

Shi Han thought about it for a while, but still didn't start working. He just let the little dragon python move around on its own, which would probably speed up its digestion.

The little dragon python went in and swam for ten minutes, and then came back. After coming back, his belly was visibly smaller, but the little dragon python was so tired that he lay down to rest.

In the afternoon, a field service vehicle came to the base and delivered a dozen sets of diving suits, two sets of underwater radars, two special bundled communicators, and some portable pontoons.

This communicator is like a belt, with only the function of image and sound transmission. Shi Han tried the communicator on the dragon, and it was just right on the dragon's head. The elastic strap didn't delay it from opening its mouth.

In this way, the little dragon python went out several times in the afternoon, and at night, it wanted to eat again. Shi Han looked at the electric eel that had been frozen into popsicles, and asked the soldiers to quickly cut the eel into pieces with a cutting machine, and then thaw it with hot water before feeding it to it.

This time it was not swallowed whole. The little dragon python digested it faster. Early the next morning, it went out with its big belly. When he came back in the evening, Shi Han cut the smaller electric eel carcasses into pieces and fed them to the dragon.

This time, because it didn’t swallow it whole, it actually ate more and ate the entire electric eel in one go! The skin of the little dragon python has completely swollen and it can no longer move!

The soldiers in the camp curiously measured it and found that the little dragon python was already 11 meters long! You know it was only ten and a half meters a few days ago!
