Starting Off With Just A Tiny Bit Of Luck

Just as Yu Miaomiao picked up her phone to check the game link message, her vision went dark, and in the blink of an eye, she found herself inside a post-apocalyptic survival game — Desert Surviv...

Chapter 255: Survival at Sea Day 10 (6) One Fish, Two Rods, Three Fishing Hooks…

All I could see was a gray-brown, flat whale head covered with pink barnacles. The entire body of the fish was not visible. Judging by the naked eye, the fish was at least 30 meters long. I just didn't know if it was the king of fish.

The sea surface was stirred up by layers of waves due to the constant churning of the strange fish underwater, and the boat under the feet of the two people was shaking continuously with the waves.

Yu Miaomiao and Lulu were holding onto the anti-slip hand rope left by the fishing rod with all their strength. The rope swung left and right extremely erratically. Their feet were a little unstable, and they could only use their shoulders and bodies to lean against the iron pillar to steady themselves.

The entire pink fish was looming in the dark ocean, making the sea area near Yu Miaomiao appear bright pink. Under the moonlight and stars, their boat seemed to be floating in a pink dreamscape.

Yu Miaomiao had no time to appreciate the scene. A fishing rod floated up from the sea. She held the iron pillar with one hand and picked up the fishing rod that was slanted on the sea surface with the other hand.

The fishing rod that Yingying had let go of has floated up, but where did the person disappear?

Yu Miaomiao and Lulu looked at each other and felt something was wrong. Could it be that Yingying was sucked into the crack of the fish's mouth?

Lulu was about to jump into the sea when Yu Miaomiao stopped her. "Lulu, this fish's head is pointed right at the spot where Yingying made her nest, and the fishing line is still in its mouth. This means it's not only following normal fish patterns, but its head can also be controlled to a certain extent by the line. I'm fully clothed, and Xiaoguai and I can communicate in the sea. I'm going down."

Yu Miaomiao gave this instruction and pulled out the golden fishing rod from her backpack. "You never know when this fishing line will break. Go to the store and buy some bait and line. Cast out again to attract its attention. If the line breaks, keep casting. It's best to keep it biting. You should be able to pull its mouth. I'll... go check around the fish. You can call Chenchen and the others for help. They'll work with me on shore."

Yu Miaomiao's physical strength has always been the lowest among the few people, so they are more suitable to pull the fishing rod or even pry open the mouth of this big fish.

"Okay." After Lulu agreed, she immediately contacted Chenchen and others, and watched Yu Miaomiao sink into the water with worried eyes.

Five minutes passed, which was Yu Miaomiao's psychological limit of expected time. Before going into the sea, she quickly measured it with a biological sensor and found that the giant fish in the sea was the legendary king of fish.

She didn't think it was a good thing that the Fish King appeared near them. After all, even the system had reminded her today that the Fish King could be dangerous and life-threatening. Now Yingying and Xiaoguai were both missing.

Yu Miaomiao dived into the sea along the rope tied to Yingying. The fish king felt her approaching and immediately turned his head and dived downwards. The faint pink light came all the way down, saving Yu Miaomiao the need to use a lamp for illumination.

Want to escape?

Looking along the rope, the direction of the chain is exactly where the fish dived.

The name of '嘤嘤怪' is lit in the friend column.

But what if... Yingying and Xiaoguai were swallowed by the fish king in his mouth and stomach, and in order to digest without being disturbed, the man and the cat chose to run away when they saw Yu Miaomiao, then she must chase him.

Yu Miaomiao immediately activated the catapult and thrusters, using the two devices to move quickly, but she still couldn't catch up with the whale shark-like fish.

Just when the distance between her and the fish king was more than two body lengths, the silver line in the fish's mouth suddenly tightened, and the fish king swimming downwards was suddenly pulled by this force, and its long and flat mouth from the abyss sucked upwards.

“Hualala——”

Yu Miaomiao, who was just trying hard to catch up, ran into the bottomless fish throat tunnel the next second. The densely packed upper and lower rows of small teeth were shining pink and white. The teeth of this fish king were covered with pink barnacles.

She hurriedly pulled the fixed rope to avoid being sucked into the fish king's mouth by the suction force of the water swallowing.

It was Lulu who pulled the fishing line, causing the king fish to stop temporarily.

Shining a strong waterproof flashlight, the barb on the silver wire was only stuck in the king fish's brown tongue and was not swallowed into its throat.

There was no human or cat figure in the mouth, and the fixed rope connected to Yingying was vertically attached to the fish body, not leading into the huge mouth.

Fortunately, Yingying and Xiaoguai were not eaten by the fish king, but where did they go...

Yu Miaomiao sent a message to Lulu on the shore, asking her to continue playing the game with the fish king, and at the same time sent a message to Yingying.

No response.

In the past, she would either disappear suddenly or use the tortoise breathing technique to cover up her breath, making it difficult for Xiaoguai to find her. Now that Xiaoguai is missing, Yu Miaomiao finally understands how it felt when it couldn't find her.

I hope that if I find Yingying, I can also find Xiaoguai.

The king fish, covered with pink barnacles, twisted its body as people on the shore pulled it, stirring up the seaweed-covered water.

Yu Miaomiao controlled the thruster to stabilize her body while grabbing the rope that was supposed to hold Yingying in place.

The sea is the world of the king of fish. No matter how hard she tried, the sea water was pushed everywhere by the king of fish's constant thrusting, and she couldn't continue diving along the rope.

Seaweed continued to gather in the surrounding water, and she had to keep using her knife to cut off the seaweed that was about to wrap around her body.

After cutting in circles for a minute, Yu Miaomiao realized that this was not going to work and it was just a waste of energy in the sea.

Yu Miaomiao originally thought that special weapons were used to kill monsters, but it seems that they must be used now.

Who says you have to catch the Fishing King? Since it is so annoying and dangerous, it is better to kill it.

Yu Miaomiao took out the salted fish sonar dagger from her waist, moved her fins left and right, and sonar interference waves came out from her dagger. After waves of water ripples hit the giant pink fish, the monster that was still struggling suddenly stopped, and the water flow around it slowly stopped.

This interference was originally intended to make the monster lose its target, and she didn't know whether its target was herself or the person pulling the lever on the shore. But as long as she was given a gap, she could take the opportunity to dive and leave the sea area muddied by the fish king.

I didn't expect the Salted Fish Sonar Dagger to be so useful. One interference consumed 5 points of durability. I hope the remaining 95 points will be enough.

She quickly pulled the catapult and swam towards the rope.

When she passed by the king fish, which was dozens of meters long, the king fish woke up again, twisted its body and struggled with the person pulling the rod on the shore. As its tail rolled back and forth, a current pushed Yu Miaomiao down several meters.

Seeing that the fish king did not chase her, she knew that the fish king's target was only the person pulling the rod on the shore. She was safe in the sea for the time being, so she followed the fixed rope to look for him.

Until the sea water around him darkened, the pink light disappeared from above his head, and the fixed rope reached its end.

Shining a flashlight over there, there was no one at the fixed end, only a fixed rope hanging alone in the sea.

Where's Yingying? Where's Xiaoguai again?

Yu Miaomiao acted decisively and gripped the two ends of the dagger's tail tightly, and a translucent holographic interface appeared in his field of vision.

She circled the fixed rope.

Finally, I found two monster points above my head, one was the fish king, and the other was the zebra cat higher up.

In the world of survival at sea, is there a second zebra cat? No, it can only be Xiaoguai.

The red dots of the two monsters do not overlap, which means that Xiaoguai is not only alive, but also not in the fish king's stomach.

With Xiaoguai's location, she quickly turned off the positioning search. In just three seconds, the durability of the dagger dropped by another 30 points, which was faster than the consumption of the interference function.

“Ding ding.”

There is news. Yu Miaomiao opened the message board while hanging in the deep sea.

"Your Lie in April: Your battle pet brought Yingying ashore, but when it saw you weren't there, it tried to go back down to the sea to look for you. Yingying has temporarily held it steady, so you'd better come up quickly."

Unexpectedly, Lulu directly called April's Lie over.

Now that Yingying and Xiaoguai are safe, she can return. It seems that this trip to the sea was in vain.

"Pangpang: Sister Miaomiao, this king fish is struggling so hard that April and I can barely hold it back. It's about to capsize our boat. Should we let it go?"

There is no reason to let the king fish get away after you have caught it.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: I'm helping you in the sea. Wait for my signal, and then you pull the lever if it's blue."

"Fat Fatty: Okay."

After learning that Yingying and Xiaoguai were safe, Yu Miaomiao could finally focus on dealing with the fish king.

Since its target was not herself, she was the most suitable person to launch a sneak attack.

Swimming quickly upwards, she saw a whole field of seaweed covering the sea above her head. Countless entangled seaweeds not only trapped the fish king's body, but also blocked her way. As she swam, more seaweed kept floating towards her from all directions.

The longer people stay in the sea, the more seaweed there will be, and after dark, there will be even more seaweed, so we must act quickly.

The cooling time of the sonar interference has arrived. She flipped the fin switch on the dagger again. At the moment when the huge body of the fish king paused, she used the catapult and jet device to swim at full speed, aimed the sharp spike at the front end of the blade at the belly of the fish, inserted the knife, and at the same time opened the blue flare in her hand.

Blue signal smoke passed from her hand upwards, and light blue mixed into the pink ocean. While the fish king was stunned, the people on the shore exerted force at the same time and pulled the giant monster upwards.

Yu Miaomiao activated the ejection device again, gripped the dagger tightly, and when the fish regained consciousness, swung its body, and struggled upward with its head raised, he slashed the blade all the way up along the fish's tail.

When the blade was halfway through, the fish king realized that the danger no longer came from the people pulling the rod above his head, but from the human beside him who was stabbing him with a knife. He wanted to twist his huge body, turn his head, and use his mouth to suck the small human beside him into his mouth, but the two silver threads in his mouth kept pulling his throat steadily, making it impossible for him to turn.

“Hualala.”

Yu Miaomiao could feel the pink fish beside her violently sucking in tons of seawater. She glanced at the catapult device and saw that it could be used twice more, and now was the time.

With the last bit of air in the jet device, she flipped the switch of the ejection device twice in succession, and a huge thrust pushed her upwards.

The dagger in Yu Miaomiao's hand became one with her. The entire blade cut quickly upwards along the fish body like a cutting machine. The handle felt the resistance of the smooth fish meat. Two seconds later, there was the sound of the fish bones being cut. The blade came out from the top of the huge head of the fish king. The whole fish was cut vertically by her, and then she was pushed out of the sea by this thrust.

Yu Miaomiao's whole body jumped out of the sea, forming a parabola in the air. Before she fell back into the sea, she was caught by a zebra cat. She hung her body, and the connection of the fixed rope behind her was firmly bitten by Xiaoguai.

"thump--"

The next moment, she was carried back to her own deck by Xiaoguai, with the dagger in her hand still stained with green barnacle fluid and red fish tissue.

"Meow?"

Is anyone okay?

Pink and blue phantoms flashed through her mind, and Yu Miaomiao met those sapphire eyes full of concern.

"I'm fine, Xiaoguai." Yu Miaomiao put the dagger back into her waist, reached out and hugged Xiaoguai, saying, "Xiaoguai, I'm glad you're okay."

Just as she hugged Xiaoguai, several system sounds and banner prompts appeared in front of her.

With the appearance of this server-wide announcement, Yu Miaomiao’s private chat exploded again.
