Chapter 92 Tragic Attack!!

Hu Shijun and Qiu Yang exchanged a subtle glance, both aware of the magnitude of their boss's recent move, overwhelming them with excitement.

The title "giant oil tanker" usually refers to a massive ship with a displacement of 100,000 or more, and currently, the company only has one such tanker in operation.

It would take at least ten days for the next delivery.

"Brother Yong, are we really going to have dozens of giant tankers?" asked Hu Shijun, expressing his disbelief at the news.

Liu Yong, their boss, exuded confidence, assuring them that it would indeed happen and wouldn't take too long. His words instantly lifted the spirits of his colleagues.

Meanwhile, a sizeable whaling ship with a crew of experienced whalers was sailing in a sea area near RB.

When the news of the $50 million reward reached them, they were too eager to seize it.

There were other whaling ships in the area, some with Westerners and some with RB natives. RB had a thriving whaling industry, and thousands of whales were hunted yearly.

To these seasoned whalers, the giant shark was no different from a huge whale, with its 30 to 40-meter length and weight exceeding 100 tons.

The prospect of earning $50 million for catching one seemed like a piece of cake.

As the western whalers aboard the whaling ship prepared to embark on their latest mission, excitement buzzed in the air.

The promise of a $50 million reward had injected each of them with feverish anticipation.

"The $50 million is ours," one of them exclaimed, already envisioning the luxury home and car he would purchase once the job was done.

But as they set out into the open sea, their excitement grew, even though they had yet to find any trace of their elusive target - a giant shark rumored to inhabit the area.

Without even spotting the creature, they began to fantasize about how they would spend the hefty reward.

Suddenly, a voice broke through the chatter,

"Guys, put down the bait. The target should be nearby."

Immediately, several strong men on the boat sprang into action, casting massive fish into the sea, hoping to lure the giant shark.

Meanwhile, others prepared their whaling guns, eagerly anticipating the moment they would face the fearsome predator.

One of them lowered a massive hook into the water, baited with a fish weighing hundreds of pounds.

As they waited in anticipation, the tension on the boat mounted.

"Guys, cheer up. The target should appear soon," one of them called out.

And within minutes, the creature they sought made its grand entrance. Someone on board spotted a massive dorsal fin cutting through the water, at least a meter above the surface.

Excitement peaked as they realized this must be the giant shark they had been hunting. "Anthony, the whaling gun is ready to shoot!" one shouted, eager to take down their formidable target.

But as they watched, the shark unexpectedly began to swim towards their boat.

"Hell, he didn't bite the bait and came toward our boat," one of the whalers exclaimed, shocked by the creature's boldness.

The crew awaited the giant shark on the whaling ship to take the bait.

They were all anticipating the $50 million reward and dreaming about what they could do with it.

Suddenly, an excited voice interrupted their thoughts,

"Guys, put down the bait. The target should be nearby."

Several strong men on the boat started to work, throwing the prepared, **** big fish into the sea to attract the giant shark.

Some people had prepared whaling guns, ready to use them to shoot the giant sharks once they appeared.

As they waited, they spotted the giant shark's dorsal fin above the water, indicating it was approaching the boat. The crew became nervous and panicked.

"D**n it, quick shot, what are you still doing?" shouted the white man with the whaling gun as he finally took the shot.

The weapon hit the target, but the giant shark became increasingly violent. It broke free from the rope and hit the whaling ship with its massive tail.

"Boom!"

The boat shook violently, and someone lost their footing and fell to the deck.

"Max, hurry up, grab the rope," yelled one of the crew members as Max fell into the water.

But the giant shark swallowed him in one gulp before Max could grab the rope.

The crew was stunned and frightened by this event.

"Full power, get out of here, ***** it, get out of here!"

The foreigner in the lead yelled, eager to get away. Too much violence was displayed by this enormous shark. That was not comparable to the whales they had previously slaughtered.

Liu Yong had been paying close attention to the situation with the giant shark and checked the relevant news every day.

In just two or three days, many organizations hunting and killing the giant shark had failed, with some even paying the ultimate price with their lives.

"The hunting of the giant shark has suffered a severe setback, and several hunting organizations have withdrawn one after another. The $50 million reward is indeed attractive, but life is more important,"

Liu Yong remarked.

"Interesting!" he said as he sat in his boss's chair and watched the news reports about the giant shark.

He saw that the Tanaka Consortium had issued another announcement, increasing the reward for killing the giant shark by 80 million US dollars.

After reading this news, Liu Yong thought,

"The price has been raised to 80 million US dollars. It seems that the pressure on RB is not small. I hope this matter will end as soon as possible."

"The bigger the incident and the longer the delay, the more unfavorable it is for us. It is best for RB to spend a sum of money to settle the matter," he mused.

"It has been raised to 80 million US dollars, you can give it a try," Liu Yong said to himself, considering the situation.

"Bawang's current weight is close to 50 tons, and has grown to 48.6 tons. Compared with the original 30 tons, it is not only larger, but also has higher attributes, and its strength and agility have also been further improved compared to before," he observed.

Deciding to act, Liu Yong picked up the phone and called Qiu Yang.

"Boss, you are looking for me," Qiu Yang said as he received the call.

"You have read the news about the giant shark off the coast of RB, right? The Tanaka Consortium has raised the reward for catching and killing it to 80 million US dollars,"

Liu Yong said, getting straight to the point.

Qiu Yang shared the alarming news with Liu Yong, saying,

"I noticed it. I just saw a piece of news that reported that the scope of the giant shark's activities has expanded. It is active not only in the coastal waters of RB but also appears in the far sea. I hope it will not appear in the coastal waters of Huahai City."

Liu Yong expressed his concern and agreed that such a violent creature could cause trouble if it wandered into their waters.

He said, "This is really not guaranteed. Such a violent creature may wander around and will likely swim to our coastal waters and cause trouble."

Feeling anxious, Liu Yong was more determined than ever to hunt and kill the giant shark.

He suggested that with the $80 million they had, they could buy two massive ships and join the hunt.

Liu Yong said,

"US$80 million is almost enough for us to buy two giant ships and tell the Tanaka consortium that our Global Ocean Services company will join the hunt and kill that giant shark with full confidence."

Qiu Yang was taken aback by Liu Yong's suggestion, reminding him they had no experience hunting such creatures.

However, Liu Yong was confident they could do it without knowledge, and their salvage ship was ready to set sail. He said,

"You don't need any prior knowledge.Inform to continue.

The sea area where the enormous shark frequently manifests itself is close to Shore, and our salvage ship is prepared to set sail and enter the high seas near  RB  at any time."

Concerned about the preparations needed, Qiu Yang asked,

"Apart from this, what else do we need to prepare?"

Liu Yong responded by telling Qiu Yang to inform the Tanaka consortium that their company was confident in killing the giant shark.

He added that they could do it for $200 million.

Hearing this, Qiu Yang was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

He exclaimed, "what! Two hundred million dollars! !"
