Chapter 883 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 127
The blue grouper swam around the bubble once, flicking its tail, before cautiously approaching it again with its mouth agape.
The passing mist blade stopped; she was now a Kiefer Angelfish, with a pure white body and a pair of transparent wings.
She silently watched the comical sight of the blue-spotted fish pouting its "O"-shaped mouth and kissing the bubbles.
Yes, she needs to find her photography skills quickly.
Yu Xunge knew that fish were watching her, but there was nothing she could do. As a favorite to win the championship, it wasn't normal for fish to be watching her.
By now, she had sucked the air bubble to the tip of the hook. Once it was completely off the hook, she could eat it in one bite!
The process seems simple, but it's actually not difficult at all. The only slightly troublesome thing is that every now and then, a passing fish will deliberately bump into her.
Finally, she managed to push the bait off the hook, but the instant the bubble bait completely detached from the hook, it melted directly into the water!
Disappeared?!
Yu Xunge: ? ? ? !
No wonder, no wonder it looked so simple. She was wondering how it could be so easy, but it turns out there was a trick up her sleeve!
Once the bait leaves the hook, it disappears immediately; the fish must be eaten while the bait is still on the hook...
Ahhhh! Her schoolbag!
She had been saving up her seasonal spellcasting materials for years! Most importantly... she didn't use any of her gold coins so she could craft scratch cards to get weapons in the individual competition!
She went bankrupt.
She went bankrupt!
Zhu Ri is right, Zhu Ri is right! Money will disappear if you don't spend it quickly!
The bluefin writhed and thrashed in the water, like a fish that had accidentally jumped out of the pool and landed on the floor in a supermarket.
During this period, many fish, like her, suddenly fell ill, as if someone had suddenly electrified this area of the sea.
The barista exclaimed "Huh?" and reeled in his fishing rod. Ah, the bait was gone.
But soon she saw a dead fish floating on the surface of the water. It was a bluefin bream, like a salted fish that had completely lost all hope, drifting on the sea and being pushed by the waves.
The barista, who instantly understood what had happened, chuckled softly.
Drummer: "Huh, Blue Spot is dead?"
The barista picked up another baited fish, "Wine and Song," and hooked it onto the line, her voice still tinged with laughter. "That's about it," she said.
Thinking about the trap that the gods had set for the apprentices, the drummer probably guessed what had happened. He asked, "What is that bait?"
"The backpack contains 30,000 gold coins," the barista paused, then added, "and a pile of trash."
She cast her line again, and the hook landed right in front of the bluefin bream's head.
Yu Xunge: What floated past?
—【A volatile moon】!!
The blue spot, which was lying on the surface of the sea and about to roll over belly up, suddenly flipped over and shot into the seabed.
The barista put down his coffee, gripped his fishing rod with both hands, and stared intently at the sea.
drummer:"……"
The barista was taken aback: "Huh?"
She raised her fishing rod, but the bait on the hook was gone.
Drummer: "Lost it? Or was it eaten?"
The barista watched the replay of the bait being eaten and laughed in exasperation: "Yeah, it was eaten."
This bait was far more important than the schoolbag, but Yu Xunge was not as cautious as before.
Because this bait was deliberately placed there for me!
This is why the longer the time after the hook enters the water, the more vigilant and focused the angler becomes, while they tend to relax slightly in the first few seconds after the bait enters the water.
Of course, concentration will decline again over time.
However, this timeframe is uncertain, and she can't afford to waste too much time on one bait. There are plenty of other baits waiting for her, so she'd better make the most of these first few seconds.
She glanced back at the barista several times as she rushed down to get closer to the bait.
The moment Yu Xunge saw the barista move his right hand to put down the coffee cup, he rushed toward the fishing hook.
【Blue Spotted Fish】! In an instant, her already nearly transparent body seemed to melt away and disappear into the water.
She had already merged into the seawater, her body enveloped in bubbles, a sensation only she could perceive. With a flick of her tail, she swam away from the hook, bait in the direction of the hook!
It's a success! The volatile moon is back!
After moving away from the fishhook, Yu Xunge did not leave. Instead, he slowly surfaced, revealing a pair of fish eyes to secretly observe the barista.
They exchanged a few glances during that time, and she was certain that the barista knew she was still there.
After waiting for a while, the barista finally frowned, hooked another bait, and cast his line again.
Yu Xunge immediately swam down towards the bait.
[Unknown?] (Not for consumption)
It's not my own...
Don't you have your own bait anymore?
Yu Xunge, who was about to leave, suddenly remembered her lost backpack and 30,000 gold coins...
She surfaced as she approached the barista, her fish head popping out, and made a "sucking" sound as she pursed her lips. When he looked over, she imitated a whale, spitting water into the sky with a "puff puff puff" sound, followed by a few "little little little" sounds. Finally, she tried whistling—not very successfully, it sounded more like a hiss!
You'll want to hook me!
After the provocation, the frustration of losing her backpack and gold coins eased slightly, and Yu Xunge contentedly dived into the sea to find the next bait.
Barista: ...
Drummer: "...cough."
...
Boiling Orange placed a large bucket of iced drinks between Dull and Deceitful Flower and let them choose.
He is now like a burning orange, a little shorter than a one-meter-tall polar bear, but much larger than an orchid mantis.
After they finished choosing their drinks, Fei Ju said, "I have some news."
Dull-witted, his feet planted on a fishing rod and his hands busy inserting a straw into his drink, casually asked, "What news?"
Boiling Orange: "Baristas are buying up bait at high prices from fish that are carrying alcohol and seeking music."
Both Qi Hua and Yu Dun stopped what they were doing at the same time.
The former asked, "What did she do to offend the barista?"
The latter asked, "Why is the barista targeting her?"
After he said that, the room fell silent instantly.
Not only did Qi Hua and Fei Ju slowly turn their heads to look at Yu Dun, but the demons nearby also looked over, their eyes flashing with a strange light: You still say you're not a fan?!
The dullard wasn't so easily defeated. He calmly said to the flower-obsessed, "...I'm sorry, I admit I don't understand her. You are the one who truly understands her."
After a few seconds of confrontation, Qi Hua and Yu Dun stopped at the same time and decided to skip the topic. They then urged Fei Ju to get down to business.
Boiling Orange smacked its lips listlessly and began to recount the information it had gathered, adding a bit of imitation as it pouted, "Suck suck suck~" — "Pfft pfft pfft" — "Lew lew lew~" — "Shh~".
Finally, He spread his hands, still seemingly unsatisfied: "That's about it."
Not only were the Flower-Deceiving and the Dull-witted silent, but the other demons sitting nearby who had watched Fei Ju's entire imitation also fell silent.
Feiju analyzed, "Is 'carrying wine and seeking songs'... something like, the rebellious phase of adolescence?"
Deceitful Flower & Dull-witted: ...Actually, she didn't improve much after she grew up; she just hid it a bit too well.
