Everyone's face showed great joy at the establishment of a city-state.
Lu Yuan could tell that everyone was probably going to be bored in this place.
Therefore, Lu Yuan ultimately decided that everyone would take turns going to the city-state to purchase what they needed.
As for saving money to inquire about things, it wasn't a particularly important matter for Lu Yuan.
Perhaps things will gradually improve for crystals in the future, and prices will drop significantly then.
He just wanted to figure out why that happened, so he could feel better once he understood.
In the following period, people began fishing on a large scale.
Fortunately, the lake is so vast that the fish they caught are practically negligible in its size.
They lose more fish to natural death each day than they catch, so they've started targeting the giants in the lake.
The lake contains giant fish that can reach tens of meters in length. These fish are the most important thing, and a single fish can weigh tens of tons.
If they could get their hands on this fish, Lu Yuan felt he might even be able to find out more about him.
However, this fish is so large that it is a very dangerous creature.
Moreover, they don't have particularly good fishing gear, so they haven't found anything particularly suitable yet.
On this day, as Lu Yuan was observing from the riverbank, another huge wave surged up on the lake. Looking at the giant wave on the lakeshore, he felt that something big had appeared.
Sure enough, about two kilometers ahead, a huge fish tail shot up and then crashed into the sea, creating a giant wave.
When Lu Yuan saw this guy, his heart skipped a beat.
He picked up his binoculars and glanced in the direction of the other fish. It seemed to have thrashed on the surface of the sea a few times before diving back into the water, and then thrashed again at a short distance away.
Lu Yuan kept calculating in his mind that if he caught this guy, he could probably ask about the mission directly.
More importantly, after seeing the big guy's tail, Lu Yuan guessed that it should be a second-tier mutated beast, otherwise its body could not have grown to such a large size.
Thinking about what was on his mind, Lu Yuan felt a surge of excitement. He hesitated for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and making up his mind.
"We must catch it!"
So Lu Yuan quickly called Zhou Tong and a few others over.
When they heard Lu Yuan say that he was going to catch that giant creature in the sea, everyone's faces showed a hint of shock.
"Lu Yuan, are you crazy? That big guy is so deep in the river, how are we supposed to catch it?!"
"Yes, it's so big, and we don't even know where the money is. We don't even know where it is, so how can we catch it!"
"How about we start with the small fish? We catch quite a few every day. As long as we guard this canal, we'll be fine!"
After listening, Lu Yuan shook his head: "You don't know what a second-tier crystal means. It's an absolutely awesome thing!"
If we manage to get our hands on it, we might be able to add another super-strong individual to our team. Don't forget, last time Qiqi didn't react after consuming it, I was frantic with worry. That's why I want to get information about this dimensional crystal as soon as possible!
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, everyone fell silent.
Lu Yuan was right. The energy within this crystal was indeed very mysterious. Just how strong was it? Nobody knew. However, according to some descriptions from the military, the energy contained in this second-tier crystal was hundreds or even thousands of times that of a first-tier crystal.
How could anyone not be tempted by such a powerful crystal?
But the big fish is too dangerous; going in is almost a one-way trip, and no one would want to risk their life.
Everyone fell silent. Seeing their reaction, Lu Yuan understood why they were acting this way.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan finally made up his mind: "Let's try getting some fish over there to lure this guy over. I refuse to believe we can't catch it!"
Seeing Lu Yuan's reaction, everyone could only nod in agreement.
So the fishing operation officially began, and this was what they were trying to catch—a very large fish.
Moreover, after some renovations, their canal is still the same length, but its width has been expanded to twenty meters.
Twenty meters wide is enough for this giant fish to swim, like the big fish that Lu Yuan has already lifted up.
But what the big fish actually likes to eat is a very difficult question.
After several days of observation, they finally discovered the big fish's living habits and the types of fish it liked to eat, so Lu Yuan kept all the fish that the fish liked to eat.
After the live fish were raised for a period of time, they were all killed and dragged along the water with ropes, extending the smell of blood into the water.
At first, the huge fish kept chasing the blood in the vicinity, but it would stop and watch every time it got close to the canal.
Lu Yuan noticed the giant fish stopping at the edge of the canal several times, which annoyed him. He wanted to go into the sea to chase it, but he knew the fish would run away as soon as it saw him.
