On January 25th, the 9th year of the New Era, a hibernator who was on vacation and awakened disappeared while fishing on the eastern sea wall.
As the natives of the spacecraft, the status of these awakened ones is not as high as that of the senators with supreme power, but it is also not comparable to those premature humans.
Therefore, when an awakened person revealed his identity during the holiday and asked to enter the part of the city wall in the sea to fish, naturally no one dared to stop him.
An hour later, the man scolded two soldiers who insisted on providing protection for disturbing possible sea fish. The two did not dare to be negligent and soon disappeared from the fisherman's sight.
No one knows why an elite human being from the home planet would be so obsessed with fishing out some possible alien creatures from the ocean of another planet using simple meat bait.
Perhaps it was because nearly a decade of peace had made him lose his instinctive thinking ability, or perhaps he simply wanted to relieve his sorrow in this way.
In short, the words telling the two soldiers to get away were the last words he left in this world.
The next day, soldiers patrolling along the sea wall saw an empty stool and a fishing rod floating on the sea in the distance.
Arthur frowned slightly when he saw this. No matter which world he went to, the fisherman would always be as abstract as ever.
I just don't know what this man, whose name was not recorded, finally got by risking his life.
This incident has attracted some attention, but overall not many people know about it.
As for the Spire, they were not happy to see such negative news being known by so many people.
So a secret salvage and search operation was launched.
Two months later, nothing was found except some torn pieces of clothing.
Because of this man's sacrifice, humanity learned a new piece of information.
The ocean of this planet is not empty. There are at least some aquatic creatures similar to those that appeared in the early evolution of species on the parent planet.
The only question is, why are there so few creatures that can be called "fish" in the sea near Hope City?
People have no way of knowing, and don't seem to have much interest in exploring.
Because not long after this incident happened, the only enemy of mankind in the next few decades - the alien beasts - began to attack the City of Hope.
In fact, the idea of the top leaders is very simple. No matter how powerful the creatures in the sea are, they cannot crawl onto the shore and bite people.
But if we cannot resist the attacks from the strange beasts on the shore, we will all have to go into the sea to feed the fish.
Therefore, the focus of all research and attention was placed on land, on those exotic beasts that were constantly learning and evolving.
And the creatures in the sea are naturally classified as exotic beasts.
For the next few decades, the sea was mostly quiet, and the tidal power stations in the outer suburbs continued to operate smoothly.
But every few years or more than ten years, when the alien beasts make big moves, there will always be some commotion in the sea.
The humans on the shore have developed a complete set of measures to deal with this. They can use the charged weapons from the spire to repel and kill the monsters in the sea, and they don't even need to deploy too many troops.
The correspondence between the sea and the land makes most people believe that the creatures in the sea are undoubtedly also strange beasts.
After reading this, Lin Qingliu discovered a blind spot:
All the material he is currently reading comes from past records.
According to the intelligence previously known to humans, alien beasts have always been the biggest enemy, while knowledge about mycelium is seriously insufficient.
They can all be categorized as animals, so it is only natural that the fish in the sea and these things on land are discussed together, and the professionals at the research institute cannot find any problems with them.
But now, when Lin Qingliu has officially disclosed the existence of alien life forms such as mycelium, the status and situation of the ocean have become somewhat strange.
If people's previous conclusions are correct, that is, the creatures in the sea also belong to strange beasts, then it means that the mycelium has been able to overcome the high-salt environment of seawater and adapt well to it, producing corresponding species of strange beasts.
But this assumption doesn't make sense at all.
According to the intelligence level of the Mycelium Will, if He can really do this, Lin Qingliu fully believes that He will organize a tide of beasts from the sea to catch the human side off guard, and may even create some strange beasts that can float or swim, and send them to the relatively weakly defended East like the Marines.
But He didn't do that.
Does this mean that the ocean is an area that even mycelium cannot reach?
But if this hypothesis is true, then why would the ocean also churn when a large-scale beast tide breaks out on land?
Lin Qingliu felt that he had found the crux of the problem.
He continued to browse the documents for a while, and finally confirmed that Hope City’s current understanding of the sea was misunderstood.
As for where exactly the misunderstanding lies?
You have to try it yourself.
"Ten thousand volumes."
"I am here."
"Is there a fishing rod in the spire warehouse?"
“…”
On the other side, "Wanjuan" fell into a short silence.
"Warehouse records show that we currently have 20 types of fishing rods from the Old Era Mother Planet in stock. What type do you need?"
"The same one as the missing person in 2009."
Lin Qingliu in Arthur state said with a smile:
"I want to replicate the classic operation of this senior."
"Okay, we have already retrieved the supplies for you. Do you need any other items?"
"No need, I have the others."
---
East District of Hope City, the city wall in the sea.
Although this place is usually sparsely populated and even strange beasts will not choose to attack from this direction, it was not until Lin Qingliu actually came here that he discovered that the materials used to build the walls were really sufficient.
This may be because in order to carry more firepower equipment, the city walls here have even undergone many special treatments that are not available in other places.
However, these have nothing to do with Lin Qingliu’s current mission.
He casually changed into a new face, wore the uniform of the spire, passed the sentry post to the city wall farthest from the shore, and then began to unfold his fishing rod on the ground.
Soon Lin Qingliu leaned on the rail gun behind him, cut off a small piece of flesh from his arm with a knife and hung it on the fishhook. Finally, he swung the fishhook with the luminous float far away with force.
A fifth-level expert used his own flesh and blood to make a nest. How could this be considered a small blessing? Not to mention tasting it, even smelling it...
However, to be on the safe side, Lin Qingliu had already erased all the genetic information in the flesh and blood when making the bait, making it a piece of bait that looked fragrant and had high nutritional value, but was no different from normal bait in other aspects.
As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Qingliu, leaning on the rail gun, perked up and began to prepare to raise his rod.
