Chapter 888 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 132
Yu Xunge was pulled upstream a short distance, and she used [Bone Removal - Sun Chaser] again in the direction of the second bait!
The fishing line taut instantly, and the hook in her mouth tore open the wound that hadn't healed yet. But as long as she thought about how her bait might be eaten by other players, Yu Xunge seemed to feel no pain.
This time, the bait is... a scratch-off lottery ticket!
Moreover, there are no hidden fishing hooks.
At this point, a struggle had begun in this area, with fish darting about in the water like torpedoes, creating turbulent currents—it seemed that some fish had already swallowed bait that wasn't meant for them…
Despite the pulling force from above and the skills affecting her from all sides, Yu Xunge activated [Bubble Nebula] and charged towards the third bait!
At the same time, she also spared some attention to observe the nearby bait.
The third bait is a B-level defensive skill learned in the Moonlight Wetlands class: Frost Armor.
He decisively gave up, waiting for her to retrieve the remaining important bait, saving his room for someone else's superior bait.
Yu Xunge rushed toward the fourth bait.
But just a second before she arrived, a shimmering strawberry fish swallowed the bait and taunted Yu Xunge, "That's a good skill, it's mine."
Yu Xunge did not rush to kill it, but quickly activated the Blue Spot's special ability and used the fishing line to pass through the shiny strawberry fish.
Killing it would take time, so Yu Xunge chose to first string it onto a fishing line and pack it up to take away—she could also string a few more fish on it to help her fight off the anglers on the shore at the same time.
Then she took a string of fish and ran as fast as she could toward the fifth bait, which was also the third to last one that belonged to her.
At the start of the game, there were only 7 glittering baits in total. Now, of the remaining two baits, one has disappeared and another blue bream has appeared next to the last bait.
Is it another fish in disguise? There's no need for that.
Is this yourself using [Time Walk]?
She looked away and focused on the fifth bait that was closest to her.
She saw it; it was a mysterious power!
Immediately afterward, Yu Xunge's breathing paused for a moment.
A fish's foul mouth was already agape in an "O" shape, aimed at its bait!
The underwater world plunged into darkness for a second, as if the lights had been turned off. When the lights were turned back on, the fish was gone.
—【The opposite side of the moon】!
Get the hell away from me!
After sending the fish away on the spot, Yu Xunge narrowly made his way to the bait and swallowed the [mysterious power] in one gulp.
Only then did she have the mind to think about how to deal with the shiny strawberry fish that had stolen her fourth bait from behind.
This is really a difficult situation. If she turns around, wouldn't she be deliberately sending herself towards the anglers?
What makes things even more difficult is that the fish are darting around everywhere. Unlike before when everyone had the same goal of escaping, now everyone wants to chase the bait while trying to escape, so the fish on the fishing line are running around in a mess. Yu Xunge can only barely keep track of the general direction.
After using the bone-removing technique to rush a short distance to the seabed, Yu Xunge saw the Blue Spotted Bluefish chasing the Ghost Fish Herring in the distance. This discovery made Yu Xunge's heart tighten.
She understands herself; efficiency and profit are far more important than spite.
The free-for-all has a time limit. Even if the skill bait she's been longing for, like [Criminal Simulation], is snatched away by an apprentice like Douli who obviously can't be killed in a short time, she will definitely give up decisively and instead focus on chasing other baits.
There's only one explanation: the herring stole his bait!
Is it an important bait? Or is it because you're hesitant to give up easily because you didn't see the name of the bait?
Meanwhile, the herring, which is being chased, is also focused on hunting down another fish.
Yu Xunge decisively charged toward the target fish of the raccoon!
55 seconds have passed since the last use of the Blue Spot ability, and the cooldown has ended. As Yu Xunge charged toward the target, she used the ability to merge into the water again, this time passing through even more fish.
Since everyone's goals are different, let's rely on the number of fish to break free from the fishing line. As long as there are enough fish, even if everyone's goals are different, the force generated will be enough to help her get out of trouble.
Although the fishing lines here didn't seem to tangle, she still tried to avoid fish that were just as obviously hooked as she was.
Above sea level, on the edge of a temporary ring-shaped iceberg surrounding the whirlpool area, Doll Mangmang and Tihu are holding the same fishing rod in a tug-of-war.
This scene looks familiar. Qi Hua asked, "...Is it that person?"
The doll, who had personally baited the hook, answered with difficulty, "It's highly likely she's the one."
Qi Hua: "Is she fishing with a net down there again?"
Dull-witted: "...It's okay, even if we lose face, it'll be the captain and the barista who lose face first."
Just two hour later, Ku Bei had just pulled up her fish when she heard this. She couldn't stand such provocation, so she asked the captain, "Isn't there a rule among anglers that they can't fight each other?"
The captain was busy pulling in the fishing rod, and he only explained one sentence: "They are fishing, drinking, and singing."
The barista's expression instantly relaxed, and she even quietly asked the three people who were playing tug-of-war, "Would you like some coffee?"
Deceitful Flower & Dull-witted & Captain: ...
Qi Hua: "This is the first time I've known that carrying wine and songs could have this effect."
Dull-witted: "Great!"
Captain: "Great!"
The plush toy screamed, "Ever since I started following Qi Hua and Yu Dun, I never imagined I'd actually get to drink coffee from a barista in my lifetime?!"
Daigo also screamed: "Do we call forming an alliance 'following' here?!"
Mangmang: "What else can we do?"
Dull-witted and Deceitful Flower silently took a few steps to the side.
The barista said to the captain, "The last time I saw them, their condition didn't seem this serious."
Captain: "You mean before 'Carrying Wine and Searching for Songs'? Yes."
A black pot was firmly placed on Zaijiu Xunge's head.
The plush toy nearby was already ablaze: "I'll risk my life to catch the Blue Spotted Fish today!"
It would have been even more inspiring if He hadn't been pulled forward by the fishing rod when He said those words.
...
Perhaps it was a twist of fate, but the fish that the raccoon was chasing actually swam towards the direction where Yu Xunge was.
Yu Xunge took the initiative to greet him!
With Xun Ge and Dou Li attacking from both sides, the fish was torn to pieces almost instantly.
Two bubbles burst out.
What a waste! I went through all that trouble to eat just two!
There's absolutely no need for communication when you collaborate with yourself!
The instant the bubble burst, Yu Xunge in the current timeline had already rushed towards Douli and knocked her away completely. Given the distance between Douli and the bubble, it probably didn't even see the name of the bait skill, only knowing that it was a lit-up bait that belonged to it.
Meanwhile, my future self rushed toward those two baits.
