Beneath the seemingly calm sea, hidden currents churned.
The schools of fish seemed to sense something and scattered in every direction! The next moment, a surging current swept in from afar. The fish that had failed to escape were unfortunately caught up in it and immediately experienced the joys of a washing machine drum.
Only as it neared the coastline did the current gradually slow. Moments later, the water dispersed, revealing the figure of a man on a stretch of beach.
It was already four in the morning, Denmark time, and there was no one by the sea.
Zhang Heng emerged from the water carrying a travel bag. He was soaked through, his hair plastered to his forehead, and water dripped from the bag as well.
Six hours earlier, when he had boarded the plane, Zhang Heng never would have imagined that this flight would turn into an underwater sightseeing tour.
The plane had inexplicably lost all power midway through the journey. Every mechanical component had stopped working. Zhang Heng immediately judged that even if he rushed into the cockpit and took over the controls, he still could not avoid the crash. He decisively opened the emergency exit and jumped straight from the plane, using his Shadow Wings to slow his descent before landing safely in the sea.
He had also rescued a pregnant woman along the way, but that had been his limit. Given their speed of descent and their distance from the sea at the time, Zhang Heng could not have brought a second person with him.
After tossing the pregnant young woman onto a piece of plane wreckage, Zhang Heng fell into the sea himself. He then used his Water Control Ability to swim across the Denmark Strait, arriving at the nearest landmass to the crash site—Iceland.
