Since Mu Xiaoting couldn't be relied upon, he could only depend on himself.
Although the helmeted man had tied his hands and feet very tightly with ropes, and his technique was quite professional, any blind struggle would only make the ropes tighter. However, if Chu Ge were here himself, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to remove the ropes and safely return to the surface.
But considering Mu Xiaoting probably couldn't hold on for long, time became especially precious at this moment. He had to adopt a more time-efficient method.
The most time-efficient method was bone-shrinking, a skill that could minimize the gaps between bones to make the body's structure more compact and thus smaller.
Even though Chu Ge wasn't particularly skilled at this, he wasn't completely confident, and the chances of success in such a dire underwater environment were even slimmer, even optimistically no more than thirty percent.
