The sea creatures that fled in all directions posed no threat whatsoever; what awaited them were the octopuses that chased after them.
While in mid-air, Gu Xi saw an octopus suddenly appear, its tentacles waving as it chased after the sea creatures.
Every now and then, its tentacles would slap directly at the sea monster, but occasionally they would miss and fall into the water.
The sea creatures, which had been moving at high speed and in an orderly manner, were now in complete chaos.
When Gu Xi saw them fleeing, she had already cast a mental binding spell on the surrounding sea. She hadn't caught any fish earlier, and she couldn't let these fish get away now.
In their panic, these sea beasts completely forgot about the mental energy binding net around them and charged around trying to escape.
As a result, they caught them every time, and in no time at all, these sea monsters were captured.
The binding effect of mental energy had a limited duration, so the octopus simply waved its tentacles, directly entangling several sea beasts. Seeing the sea beasts struggling fiercely, the octopus continuously tightened its tentacles, binding them even more tightly.
Now, no matter how much the five sea monsters struggled, they could not escape the octopus's control.
Gu Xi, meanwhile, excitedly stepped on the octopus, standing on its spikes, and took out fish food.
It's time to raise fish. Although these fish aren't much better than the others except for their speed, they are still marine creatures and can at least be used as fighters.
They look quite nice, and I don't even know what kind of fish they are.
Gu Xi fed the octopus several packets of fish food to keep it calm and prevent it from failing at a crucial moment.
Then she took out fish food and fed it to the sea creature.
The fish food smells delicious, and no fish can resist its temptation. If a fish doesn't like to eat it, it just means that the sea creature isn't a fish, like the sea dragon we encountered before.
Clearly, the sea creatures caught this time were fish.
The moment these fish smelled the fish food, their entire bodies glowed, shining like light bulbs.
Then, they ate the fish food in big gulps, making the octopuses that had caught them squeaky with envy.
[Fish being bound...]
[Fish successfully bound.]
...
Gu Xi waited until all the fish were successfully bound before stepping on the spikes to return to the boat.
The first thing she did upon returning to the boat was to check what kind of fish it was.
Gu Xi opened the taming panel, and the names of the new sea monsters were displayed before her eyes.
Name: 298
Species: Marine mammal, shimmering ray?
Taming progress: 1%
Interaction 10% (0/3)
Feed 10% (0/3)
Food intake: 3
After looking at its species, Gu Xi thought the names of their species were quite nice, but there were a lot of fish, and she wondered what they could do.
She thought about it for a while, and finally changed the names of the five fish. To make them easier to distinguish and remember, she simply numbered each of them. Thus, Flowing Light No. 1 to No. 5 were born.
"Sigh, another thing done."
Gu Xi was in an exceptionally good mood. Although the Radiant Ray, which had perished in the battle, hadn't left behind any Sea Beast Pearls, this didn't diminish her joy. For her, victory itself was the best reward.
Gu Xi felt refreshed after finishing her task, even though the three dead fish hadn't given her the Sea Beast Pearl.
However, this pleasant feeling did not last long, as the game system notification suddenly sounded, interrupting her thoughts.
[Game Hint: After defeating the sea monster, players can explore its lair.]
