Chapter 788: Moving Forward
The appearance of the waterspout scared everyone and made Bifang quickly become alert, or rather, his vigilance reached its peak once again.
It is not easy to stay focused. Mental fatigue sometimes comes faster than physical fatigue, especially for Bifang who has been through all this continuously.
If possible, he really wanted to lie down and have a good sleep, without having to worry about the wind and waves suddenly getting stronger and smashing the boat, or worrying about the remaining food suddenly being wet by the influx of sea water, becoming moldy and spoiled, and leaving nothing behind.
Waterspouts come and go quickly. They are fierce when they come and quick when they go. This is also one of their characteristics.
After about a quarter of an hour, it dissipated above the sea surface due to Bifang's headache, leaving only a misty water vapor.
[ Oh my god, I was scared to death just now]
[Spin a dragon to suck water for everyone]
[The first time I saw a dragon sucking water, what should I say?]
[The typhoon is really too strong. It's dangerous even on land, let alone on the sea. Sigh, I hope Fang Shen can do better.]

The audience was equally shocked, and it was only after a few minutes that the barrage of comments began to become enthusiastic.
It was too dangerous. If I had been a little closer, wouldn’t I have been smashed to pieces?
Fortunately, Bifang realized it , otherwise he might have been in big trouble.
With each adventure, Bifang increasingly feels that among all his abilities, his beast intuition plays the most important role.
We can always issue a warning in advance before the danger actually arrives.
However, through repeated practice, Bifang has come to understand the nature of this ability more and more clearly.
Beast intuition is not precognition, but an amplified feedback of subconscious vigilance.
Unchecked.
The wild beast's intuition is not that the cicadas feel the coming of autumn before the wind blows, but that the cicadas feel the coming of autumn after the wind blows.
Red wood ants have sensors that can sense changes in carbon dioxide and the Earth's magnetic field. Whenever an earthquake strikes, they can always respond in advance and never return to their nests.
Most fish have a linear pattern on both sides of their bodies, running from the head to the end of the tail. It is an important sensory organ for them to adapt to life in water. When the ocean waves hit the reefs and shoals, causing changes in water flow and vibration frequency, the fish's lateral line can detect these changes in time and accurately change its swimming direction, allowing it to safely pass through reefs and shoals.
Its lateral line can also sense low-frequency vibrations that the inner ear cannot sense, which is also very important for finding bait and avoiding fishing.
When the Krakatoa volcano erupted, the infrasound it produced circled the earth three times, spread over hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and caused countless animals that could detect infrasound to have uneasy reactions.
Let’s not talk about common poultry for now.
Pigeons: They don’t enter the nest, they roost outside the house, and are suddenly startled and fly away in all directions.
Rats: Come out of holes in groups during the day, act like drunk and dazed, are not afraid of people, run around in panic, and carry small mice in their mouths when moving.
Snakes: Hibernating snakes come out of their holes and freeze in the snow, freeze to death, increase in numbers, and gather in groups.
Fish: floating in groups, swimming wildly, jumping out of water, fish in tanks jumping around, bumping their heads and tails and bleeding, jumping out of the tank, making noises, becoming sluggish, and dying.
Toads: Come out of their holes in groups.
Humans regard the strange behaviors of animals before a disaster as a kind of foreknowledge. But in fact, there is no means of foreknowledge in the world, only sufficiently advanced detection methods.
All kinds of animals, all kinds of organs.
Electromagnetic waves, infrasound, smell, vision, air pressure, humidity, wind direction, temperature, ultraviolet rays.
They can see what humans cannot see, they can hear what humans cannot hear, they can smell what humans cannot smell, and they can feel what humans cannot feel.
This is the essence of everything.
But is it really true that humans cannot see, hear, smell, or feel?
The changes are always there. The scenes have entered the eyes, the smell molecules have entered the nasal cavity, and the changes in electromagnetic induction, air pressure, and humidity always exist.
It's just that they are too weak to be captured in the mind, but they can be felt in the human subconscious.
The potential of the brain is endless. The most common brain iceberg theory, does it mean that everything under the iceberg is silent?
Of course not.
Even an extra half pound of fat can keep you going for a little longer when you’re at the end of your rope, let alone half a pound of brains?
Hormones, digestion, heartbeat, breathing, excretion, desire, eat when hungry, sleep when tired.
The subconscious mind processes all the vast and complex information from the body, and gathers information at the genetic level from millions of years of human history.
It encompasses the most important instincts for human survival, the functions of the autonomic nervous system, and the laws of the universe. In other words, all the best survival information humans have ever obtained is hidden in the subconscious mind.
Therefore, as long as you know how to develop this innate ability, there is almost no wish that cannot be realized.
The conscious mind cannot capture information that is so weak that it is imperceptible, but the subconscious mind has enough power to do so. However, only people who are sensitive enough can notice it.
Although you may not be able to effectively identify what the danger is, your subconscious mind can clearly feel the difference and cause you to feel strange.
Bifang could sense the arrival of wolves in the Arctic wilderness; the stench of predators had already drifted in through the crack in the door.
The typhoon can be felt because there has been a slight difference in air pressure and a slight shear in wind direction.
Perhaps we ourselves are not aware of it, but our subconscious mind senses a sense of disharmony, which sends a warning to the human brain.
The beast's intuition itself is to amplify this warning infinitely.
The enhanced five senses of Bifang itself can also help capture more information. The sense of smell, vision, and electromagnetic induction further assist in information capture and enhance the beast's intuition.
Bifang collected his thoughts and focused his attention on the Viking, continuing to fight against the wind and waves.
Strictly speaking, his position at this time was actually at the edge of the typhoon. It was precisely because of this that Bifang was able to maintain his speed. Otherwise, the waves surging on the sea alone would be enough to make him suffer, let alone moving forward at high speed.
The power of the typhoon is so terrifying that the waves within its range can definitely be described as "overturning the sea". If the distance is closer, Bifang's survival difficulty will increase sharply, and it will not be able to take advantage of this tailwind at all.
The wind speed of just a few tens of seconds would be enough to break his original mast on the spot, capsize the boat, and gather waves at least three meters high on the sea, making it unavoidable.
The storm will not last for half a day or more, but for several days, which is beyond the ability of one person to deal with.
Even if Bifang has enough skills, his physical strength does not allow it.
Fortunately, thanks to the edge of the typhoon, the sails are always inflated and the progress can be said to be rapid.
One day now is at least as good as the previous two days.
This also means that Bifang is very close to Point Nemo. At most tonight, he will cross Point Nemo and complete the most critical step of this mission.
