The fish was already in his hands. Although a ring was put through its tail to make it obedient, this method was completely unnecessary for Gu Xi.
She asked the octopus to bring the fish food and feed it to the pearlfish. Perhaps because they are both marine mammals, the pearlfish did not resist the octopus's act of feeding them.
One bag of fish food after another was poured into the pearlfish's mouth, until the 20th bag, when the fish-raising system emitted a taming sound.
The pearl fish, now in the taming stage, clearly no longer resisted. With the help of the octopus and other marine mammals, the fish led it towards Gu Xi. After some commotion, the pearl fish finally brought its tail to Gu Xi's face, quietly waiting for her to inspect it.
The pearlfish and other fish stopped thrashing about, and Gu Xi finally got a clear look at the fish tail ring.
She'd only caught a fleeting glimpse, and at first glance, she'd assumed the fishtail ring was about the size of a bracelet. In fact, the fishtail ring was larger than her head. Judging from the material, it was likely some kind of metal, seamlessly integrated from head to tail with no visible joint, and she had no idea how it was attached.
Additionally, there is a number on the fishtail ring, presumably a product number used for record-keeping.
Gu Xi reached out and gently touched the fishtail ring, then used her mental energy to envelop it. Suddenly, she clearly felt that the fishtail ring was also covered with a layer of mental energy.
Then she saw the text of the contract formed by her mental energy. There were many terms and conditions on it, including how to use the fishtail ring and the issue of its control. Now, as long as Gu Xi covered the fishtail ring with her mental energy, control of the fishtail ring could be transferred to her.
Of course, the fish tail ring is only used to control the fish. If her fish is captured by someone else or a deep-sea creature, and she uses mental control again, then the fish will belong to someone else.
Gu Xi naturally wanted to get rid of this control method, which was not only unsightly but also had various drawbacks.
The mental contract also clearly states the method to remove the fishtail ring. She only needs to use her mental power to input the password recorded in the contract and wrap it around the fishtail ring.
There was no time to lose, so Gu Xi immediately followed the instructions in the contract and removed the fishtail ring from the pearl fish's tail. The moment it was successfully removed, the fishtail ring instantly turned into light dust and dissipated into the air.
Upon seeing the ring on the fishtail disappear, the domesticated fish became excited, and even the pearlfish swam around happily. However, their joy was short-lived. Gu Xi noticed that when the pearlfish saw the large hole in its tail, it immediately stopped, sank into the water, and then let out a cry that sounded like crying, a very pitiful cry.
Gu Xi used his mental energy to inquire about the other sea beasts.
What's wrong with it now?
"Chirp chirp"
"Da da"
...
The sea creatures chattered amongst themselves, telling her why the pearl fish was sad.
It turns out that pearlfish are naturally vain, so they pay special attention to their appearance. Although it has now gotten rid of the tail ring, the hole in the ring will never heal. It feels like a disabled marine mammal, so it is very sad.
After learning the reason, Gu Xi was both amused and exasperated. From the moment the sea creatures in the house were circling around it, trying to coax it, she had already felt that this pearl fish was quite spoiled, like a pampered little princess. Now, its behavior only confirmed its reputation as a pampered little princess.
The pearl fish swam listlessly on the surface of the sea, looking utterly dejected, as if it could sink to the bottom of the sea and end its life at any moment.
Gu Xi couldn't stand its behavior, so she went back inside and found a gemstone necklace with a iridescent sheen. She had the octopus hang the necklace on the pearl fish's tail.
Sure enough, when the octopus presented the beautiful necklace to the pearlfish, the pearlfish's aura changed. It looked at the necklace curiously, and then the two sea creatures communicated for a while before the octopus hung the necklace on the pearlfish.
