Chapter 95 Flying Fish Appear, Stargazing School
Although a person can only bind a maximum of three servants, it doesn't say that servants can't have their own servants. Duanqiao Canxue has a total of 12 indentures in her hands.
At first, they got along fairly well. The higher-ups were stricter and the days were tough, but as long as they could eat, they were fine.
Although Duanqiao Canxue is weak in individual strength, he is incredibly wealthy! All things considered, he ranks among the top three in the channel.
Therefore, the system's assessment of him was not low. The marine creatures that targeted him were naturally powerful, causing his servants great suffering. They were all covered in wounds and almost collapsed in the last few days.
After all, if they've been reduced to signing indentures, even if they've passed the screening process, how much skill can they possibly have?
Coffee or tea: It is said that the servants, in league with outsiders, killed Broken Bridge and Lingering Snow, then half of them dispersed, and the other half found themselves a new master.
Fortune is on my side: Haha, that's just how things change, but aren't servants supposed to be forbidden from harming their contractors?
Coffee or tea: They didn't do it themselves; it seems they encountered other players directly at sea? After some verbal hints and enticement, they arranged everything before Broken Bridge Snow could react. Then, they knocked themselves unconscious, so they wouldn't have to obey his orders.
What happened next was obvious; without the protection of servants, Duanqiao Canxue died easily.
Everyone was having a great time watching the drama unfold. With so many people and so many eyes in the chat channel, the matter didn't cause a ripple at all. At most, some clueless players would ask why the food shop had closed down.
Of course he died, and he was killed by his own servants.
Broken Bridge Snow used to boast about his carefree life to players, but now that he's fallen from grace, everyone's kicking him while he's down.
Those who had signed the contract, in particular, wished they could hang a banner on the channel saying that their oppressive slave owner was dead.
No one talks about it openly, but those in the know are whispering about it!
My focus, however, shifted to something different.
"What happened today? How did they end up running into other players?"
I don't know about the coffee either, I guess they used some kind of prop?
AAA Material Wholesaler Lao Shen: When there are more people in a channel, there is a chance of encountering other players on the sea. This person also has all the right timing, location and people. Generally, large-scale encounters will only occur after the number of people online in the channel reaches 20,000.
Shen Dixin shook her head. The probability of encountering other players now was about the same as rolling a 20 on the dice. She was too lucky.
It seems that Duanqiao Canxue's subordinates were indeed carefully selected, and their reaction speed was very fast, managing to seize this opportunity to turn the tables.
Their wins and losses had nothing to do with morality; it was purely a matter of ruthless competition, where whoever could suppress the other would survive.
Because the chances were so low, Shen Dixin herself couldn't recall that she would encounter players on the sea when there were so few people in the channel.
It would be good to give them a heads-up beforehand, since after two more disasters, losing tens of thousands of people wouldn't be a problem.
Shen Dixin felt Lu Mingang's gaze, so she looked up and questioned him with her eyes.
"Dixin, don't worry, we will always support you!" If anyone has any other ideas, he will help Dixin get rid of them.
He smiled, his eyes crinkling, and said with certainty.
"certainly."
Shen Dixin raised an eyebrow. She didn't think her teammates could find better places without her. She had always been very generous to her companions.
Her strength comes from herself, and she spent most of her resources upgrading her ships. Putting aside whether she could harm her, there would be no benefit in trying to harm her.
While they were chatting, Coffee sent her a private message.
Coffee or Tea: Boss, I heard that the one who killed Broken Bridge Snow and took over that group of people was Cherry Nine Heavens. She was the number one on the last server merge, and now she's ranked second in our channel.
Coffee or Tea: I think the information is correct. After Duanqiao Canxue's name disappeared, her ranking jumped two places!
Shen Dixin seemed to be deep in thought. She recognized the name but had never met the person in question. The reputation of the person in the channel was quite good.
AAA Materials Wholesaler Lao Shen: It's alright, what can she do to us?
Coffee or Tea: Hehe, if you come, we'll fight back! Thanks to the boss, I'm super strong after changing jobs! Who can I not beat except you?
Coffee touched the vine on her wrist and gave a sly smile; it was the first legendary plant she had planted that day.
After a brief conversation, just before going to sleep, we finally got news about the water detector. Nobody really needs these things, so they're easy to acquire.
After figuring out how to use it, Chen Dixin couldn't wait to squat down by the boat and fill it with water. As the water level detector beeped, the results came out.
Hmm, this is Kabuluoxiahai. Shen Dixin seemed to have some recollection of it. She pulled out the sea monster encyclopedia, and sure enough, it showed that Kabuluoxiahai was among the sea monsters that landed on the shore.
Unfortunately, it was getting late. After saying goodnight to each other, the two went back to their rooms to sleep, knowing they still had a tough battle ahead.
The next day, Shen Dixin was awakened by the sound of an impact.
"Thump! Thump, thump!"
Her eyelids twitched, and she quickly realized it was Flying Fish!
Shen Dixin was on guard. He took out two wooden planks from his spatial storage and held them in front of him before pushing open the door and going out. He met Lu Mingang's gaze. After being reminded, he also knew to take something for self-defense, but he used a pot.
"puff……"
Being sandwiched between two pots of sweet and sour sauce made Lu Mingang feel a little awkward, but he had to admit that the effect was excellent.
The pot was made of metal, so its strength couldn't be too low. Even after being repeatedly struck by the flying fish, it only suffered some dents. Those powerful, penetrating sounds were coming from the fish on it.
Suddenly, his expression changed. "Dixin, be careful!"
Shen Dixin deftly dodged the flying fish's attacks. She caught several that came straight at her with her wooden planks. The sound of wood chips cracking was muffled. She looked down and saw that the flying fish had forcefully pierced through the first layer of wooden planks and was now stuck on the second plank.
“Doesn’t it look like the Stargazing Pie you made before?” She held up the wooden board in her hand.
"Does Dixin want to eat?"
No.
The flying fish glided through the air in a streamlined pattern, its sharp body soon covering the wooden planks! Shavings were scattered all around where Chen Dixin landed.
She yawned, and her eyes gradually cleared.
If the flying fish had a bigger brain, it might have been able to sense that ever-present killing intent.
The thorns slipped from his hand, collided head-on with the flying fish in the air, and were knocked to the ground.
Flying fish are fast, but there are too many of them. Shen Dixin can hit the target eight or nine times out of ten by relying on his intuition when throwing hidden weapons.
The tense and exciting target practice segment is much more interesting!
The flying fish's figure seemed to overlap with the pebbles thrown by Yuebai, knocking them all down.
The girl's calm expression attracted all the flying fish on Lu Mingang's side. He put down the pot in a daze, his eyes full of admiration.
Taking a break, she also checked the messages in the group chat. Over the past few days, everyone had developed the habit of reporting their situation as soon as they opened their eyes.
Apart from Chen Dixin's group, no flying fish appeared. Sharks were unavoidable, but everyone was already prepared.
While dealing with the flying fish, the sharks also launched an attack, leaving Lu Mingang completely unable to do anything else.
The two stood back to back, each exploiting the other's weaknesses. Although their strengths were not equal, one attacked while the other defended, and everything proceeded smoothly.
In Shen Dixin's eyes, the constant pressure meant a constant supply of food!
She experienced an unprecedented wave, but she benefited the most from the entire channel, or rather, the entire server!
For every additional half of the attacks he could withstand, he could catch tens of kilograms of fish each time. Even with wounds on his body, Chen Dixin remained full of fighting spirit.
Zhu Sha and the others were on another ship, where they were barely able to hold on with the help of the Gu worms.
Finally, the fish were driven back, and the next wave was brewing. We can finally catch our breath.
Upon closer inspection, the two realized there were more fish than the entire previous day combined! It looked like they were about to bury them!
In that case, even with the carefully planned locations, the ice storage might not be enough!
Shen Dixin and Lu Mingang exchanged a glance and came up with a solution.
When they had some free time, they set up a row of iron pots on the side of the boat, and piled stones and iron blocks around them to secure them so that they wouldn't be overturned by the fish, and cooked fish soup on the spot!
Just kill some fish and throw them in when you have a spare moment. Only remove the internal organs; you can't worry about the rest. You can always sell them at a lower price. You can't let them take up space in the freezer.
The cooked fish soup was slowly served by the little elves. After all, they were mechanical creations with no signs of life, so the marine life wouldn't pay them any attention.
Although he couldn't be as efficient as Lu Mingang standing by the pot, he quickly made fish soup by bringing it to a boil over high heat. After a few minutes, the fish was almost cooked and he took it out.
As soon as one pot is cooked, the next one is already done, giving the fish soup no chance to absorb the flavors. It's more like a seasoned water with a fishy taste than a soup.
But as for fish soup, it's fine to leave it simmering in the pot after it's cooked; even if the little elves are slow, it's better than not making it at all.
It would be even better if a fish jumped into the pot; extra ingredients, same price!
However, this means there is no time to rest. Generally speaking, even the fiercest attacks cannot come one after another; there are always gaps. After killing the enemy in front of you, you must be wary of the next wave of enemies.
After deciding to take the fish out of the pot, even this short break was used to process the fish. Fortunately, the two Pokémon whose durability was almost depleted hadn't gone on strike yet. Now there are a total of six Pokémon working, which are a great help!
Shen Dixin thought to himself, it seems I can't let these two little elves be ruined. I should save some of their durability for when it's in a critical moment!
She looked a little annoyed, wishing she had prepared a few more cheaper Pokémon. She had never encountered such a busy and time-sensitive job before.
Even when I'm very busy, four Pokémon are more than enough, and I can even have one or two free time, so I don't have the awareness to prepare in advance.
They used to manage two pots in Lu Mingang's house, processing fish, cooking soup, and packaging it... producing fish soup in a methodical way.
Once it's out, all you need to do is clean out the innards and pack it in a box. You don't need to stir it much; the only reason you're stirring it is to make the fish cook more evenly. Cooking it longer will make no difference.
As Lu Mingang dissected the internal organs, he muttered to himself, "If we can't finish cooking it, we'll ask Coffee and the others to help. Anyway, fish soup isn't hard to make, and we can't take up the freezer."
Since taking charge of selling ice, no one knows better than Lu Mingang how much he can earn from selling ice in a day. With the same amount of space, the ice can buy half a fish in a day.
Shen Dixin nodded. Her stamina was dropping rapidly without any rest, but overall the benefits were still high.
Whether it's fish soup or not doesn't matter; the main thing is that it allows Lu Mingang to gain experience.
All Chen Dixin needs to do is occasionally cover for him to stir the pot, and the system will determine that he made the soup, since the experience points can't be given to the little elf.
We're all in the same boat, so Lu Mingang's experience is her experience too!
Halfway through the battle, Chen Qingxin's experience bar finally filled up.
[Congratulations to player "AAA Materials Wholesaler Lao Shen" for being the first player on the entire server to reach level 10! Reward: 2 Free Attribute Points!]
[Do you want to hide...?]
[Congratulations on reaching level 10! You are rewarded with 2 free attribute points!]
[Congratulations to the player who has obtained the unique title "Explorer". It is unlocked when the player reaches level 10. Wearing it will grant a 30% bonus to the main class experience after job advancement.]
Level 10!
Shen Dixin was a little surprised that she had managed to snag the level reward this time, since her profession wasn't fisherman, which put her at a disadvantage in this regard.
But then I thought, a chef is providing me with experience! How can that not be considered benefiting from it?
The lamp spirit sensed the fluctuations in Chen Dixin's body, poked its head out, and almost collided head-on with the flying fish!
"Hey, sir, this is too dangerous. I'm going back now. Remember to save two attribute points, and you can make up for the last two in seven days!"
It hurriedly shrank back.
Shen Dixin added the two available attribute points to Strength, and seven days would be enough for her to level up again.
Current three dimensions: Constitution 14 (16), Strength 31 (14), Agility 10 (16).
[Congratulations, player! You have reached Strength 30 and have learned the passive skill [Lurking: The first instance of damage dealt to a target deals 300% bonus damage.]]
A brand new passive ability! Shen Dixin followed a balanced path in his previous life and did not activate any passive abilities that grant 30 points to basic attributes.
This not only greatly helps her with sneak attacks, but also speeds up the usual combat process. It seems that from now on, I need to make sure that the first hit lands on a vital spot!
But the joy of the upgrade was quickly overshadowed.
The experience required to reach level 11 is (101/200,000), and leveling up becomes increasingly difficult after that.
Shen Dixin looked away and told Lu Mingang that there was no need to give her any more experience points recently; she should level up to level 10 first.
After that, whenever he had free time, he was either busy putting ice on the shelves or busy giving away fish to people everywhere.
Under the scorching sun, Chen Dixin felt dizzy from running, seemingly showing signs of heatstroke, probably because she had been too stressed today.
"Lu Mingang, do you have any cold drinks?"
I took the cup and gulped down a big mouthful, finally feeling cool. The ice cubes made a crisp sound as they swayed and collided.
The water from a fountain collected with regular ice is not drinkable; it's made by freezing drinking water.
Perhaps because it was just the beginning of summer, the temperature soared to just over fifty degrees before stopping, which was barely bearable for everyone.
Especially as some players have crossed the threshold of level 5 ships, Shen Dixin is no longer the only one with an ice storage. With the help of ice, not many people die from the heat.
The cup in Shen Dixin's hand is milk tea without tea; it's made with milk, sugar, lychee, and grapes. Tea has never been seen in their life at sea.
If you were to sell it, I reckon someone would be willing to trade it for an iron block, but it's too complicated to make and not cost-effective.
After all, Lu Mingang didn't have any pre-made ingredients to help him, so he just mixed some for his own people to drink.
Since making milk tea, Lu Mingang's image in the group has become much more impressive. Even Tao Ling, who doesn't usually like drinks, can't resist it, and occasionally drinking something sweet can improve her mood.
As evening fell, the fish gradually retreated, leaving only a few stubborn ones. Suddenly, Chen Dixin received a radar alert, and at the same time, the silhouette of a raft appeared in the distance.
She went inside and glanced at the radar. Huh? It's a yellow dot.
Unknown islands are displayed in red on the radar, while visited islands and friendly creatures such as wandering merchants are displayed in green, and yellow represents similar islands.
I had just said that it would be difficult for more than 10,000 people to encounter other players, and here it comes.
No, there are no more than 10,000 people left. Shen Dixin was slightly stunned. The number of survivors was 8,721. It seems that the sharks have taken a lot of lives.
Will more than 7,000 people survive tomorrow? Shen Dixin didn't want to lose her reward title, otherwise she didn't know if the titles on her two pets' heads would disappear, those were obtained through critical hits!
However, in this arena where individual strength is the primary factor, Shen Dixin finds it difficult to help others. She can only remind everyone to cooperate in the battle and use the Heart-Eating Gu to deal with the refreshed sharks once their strength has increased.
My luck has improved. I've completely put aside other work and focused on breeding the Heart-Eating Gu. Producing two hundred a day is no problem.
Although it was a drop in the ocean, other specialized professions with spare capacity also began selling products.
Apothecaries offer a variety of buff potions, knights provide protective shells, wizards have substitute dolls... all sorts of protective items are emerging one after another, and the prices they command are getting higher and higher.
At most, Chen Dixin can only limit the price to a certain range, preventing it from rising too much. He cannot demand that they sell at the original price. This wave can be described as a case of the bold getting rich and the timid starving.
Of course, there are also quite a few people who sell their life-saving items only to end up losing money themselves.
As the raft drew closer, Shen Dixin realized that things weren't going well. Despite choosing a sea fortress with spatial advantages, its area was only twice the size of her ship.
The two picked up their weapons, ready to finish the fight quickly. The monster tide was just over ten minutes away, and Shen Dixin hadn't forgotten that they were going to face the 80th wave of monsters today!
The excruciating pain I felt last time is still fresh in my mind; I hope this sea monster won't be so torturous.
Something's not right, why is it so quiet?
Shen Dixin frowned. There wasn't even a sound of movement on the raft opposite her. With her now extraordinary senses, she could detect even the slightest movement when it was covered in water.
"Cinnabar ingot, come with me. You can provide backup as needed."
Lu Mingang did not act impulsively and insist on following. He agreed and cautiously looked around.
They were now within easy reach of the raft with a single leap. Chen Dixin remained silent, waved, and boarded the raft first.
Zhu Sha began searching from the other side, with Yuan Bao following closely behind, ready to use his tortoise shell to block any stray arrows.
Although its three dimensions are not as high as Chen Di Xin's, the hardness of its shell is several times higher than the apparent physical value, making it difficult to break.
The sails were billowing in the wind, and Shen Dixin seemed to see something horrifying, his eyes wide open.
A man was kneeling in front of the wooden house, his head resting against the door panel, his hands hanging limply at his sides, and his back was covered with flying fish, making him look like a hedgehog that had reaped a rich harvest.
This is... a human-shaped stargazing group?
Shen Dixin felt nauseous and quickly banished this bizarre association from her mind. It was too hellish!
When we get back, we should tell Lu Mingang to stop being a stargazer, or he'll develop a psychological trauma from it.
The man was practically pinned down by the flying fish. Chen Dixin dared not move, and stretched out his finger to poke—
Can you hear me?
His current condition is terrible. Shen Dixin can't see his attribute panel, but judging from the surface, he has at least the highest level of Penetration, Stun and Bleeding. He might also have Weakness and Coma.
Moreover… she glanced at her legs, which were swollen like radishes, and the symmetrical blood holes in her pants were undoubtedly the work of the sea serpent.
It's a miracle that Shen Dixin could see the truth, but unfortunately, that's all. To save someone who's half-buried in the ground, even all her medicine might not be enough.
Unexpectedly, the man suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes burst forth with vibrant color. The phrase "a final burst of energy before death" was not enough to describe the shock of this moment!
He stood up, covered in fish, and looked unsteadily at Chen Dixin.
Chen Dixin: ...Did it come back to life?
An icon was flashing prominently in the status bar on the opposite side.
[Tier B: Lingering Fear: When your health reaches zero, you retain consciousness, are immune to all debuffs, and will prematurely end your feigned death state upon receiving further external damage.]
Chen Dixin took a step back as a sign of respect and spoke in a businesslike manner: "If you can produce something of equal value to eighty pieces of blue medicine, I can save you."
"Hiss, hiss, no need, I'm already a dead man, friend, besides, I don't have that much stuff to give."
He shrugged and muttered, "Why isn't he dead yet? He withdrew at just the right time. If he had taken one more bite, I wouldn't have had to endure this long."
The reason the man is in a state of suspended animation and doesn't move is purely because of the pain. Just because he's not dead doesn't mean he's not in pain! With so many penetrating wounds, the culprit is still inside him. Even the slightest movement could cause him excruciating pain.
"Forget it, I'll just sit here. I didn't expect to actually meet other players at sea. Are you here to inherit my legacy?"
"Obviously."
Shen Dixin made no attempt to conceal her intentions. She wasn't some kind of saint who could save people from suffering; it was already a miracle that she hadn't killed anyone by squatting there like this.
"It has a blood lock effect?"
Shen Dixin rested her chin on her hand, looking at the man who was pale but had been panting for five minutes without seeming to be in any danger. Under normal circumstances, he would have bled to death long ago.
"Yeah, little girl, have you ever killed anyone? Aren't you scared? Why don't you just kill me instead? It hurts so much."
"Okay, do you have any last wishes? If it's within my power, I can help you."
"Cough, cough!"
The man seemed to want to say something, but a violent cough interrupted him. He probably choked on blood. If it weren't for the blood-locking device, he could have coughed himself to death. He would have suffered terribly all over his body!
It took him a long time to regain his strength before he could speak, and he pulled out a small notebook he always carried with him.
"I have a will for my family outside. I wrote down their contact information and address. If you can get out of this hellhole alive, please help me deliver the will to them?"
Shen Dixin agreed; she firmly believed that she would be able to get out!
She reached out and closed the man's eyes, then drew her knife, cutting away flesh and blood. When she regained her senses, all that remained was a pile of fish.
There's no need to take it back; it's weird to cook a fish that's been soaked in human blood.
After finishing, she went back to the boat and called Lu Mingang to help move things. The man's family was not poor; there were more than a dozen boxes piled up. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to welcome the flying fish on the sixth day.
Lu Mingang didn't ask her what she was going to do. Just listen to her and that's enough. Di Xin has her reasons for doing things!
After putting the notebook away, she noticed that the enemy, Chen Qingxin, had already started stirring up water. She told Lu Mingang to continue moving the thorns to attract the sea monster's attention.
The first wave was cleared successfully, and fortunately, the items were all moved before the elite sea monsters appeared.
The raft, now without its owner, drifts aimlessly into the distance, like a leaf about to rot on the water's surface.
The scanning lens began to work as it faced the large object in front of it.
[Level 26 "Elite Fish Monster": Constitution 54, Strength 16, Speed 34]
After revealing the information about the fish monster, Shen Dixin relaxed a little. It was definitely a big, dumb guy!
The other side was indeed quite foolish. Without the powerful weapon of mental stimulation, dealing with them was a piece of cake for Chen Dixin, even easier than dealing with the sea monsters required by the token.
Its skills are even less noteworthy; they are merely self-healing abilities that can only buy time and have no offensive power whatsoever.
Shen Dixin coldly added another wound to its body, and the fish monster, unable to bear it any longer, roared to the sky.
[The "Elite Fish Monster" has 10% HP remaining and enters a berserk state, increasing all attributes by 300% and unlocking a special skill.]
Special skills should still be respected. By sacrificing some output, Chen Dixin can make his attacks more reliable.
Until... she discovered that the so-called special skill was actually just doubling her health recovery.
After all that hard work injecting blood for half a day, it all came back up in one go.
Chen Dixin: ?! ?! It doesn't bite, it's just disgusting!
She complained and attacked fiercely at the same time, which took a little longer, but it was still better than the last time when both sides were hurt.
It seems that the system's rating of elite sea monsters only considers three dimensions, and the skills they possess have little impact. Otherwise, the sea monsters in wave 80 wouldn't be easier to deal with than those in wave 30.
After they finished moving everything, Zhu Sha and Yuan Bao also joined the battle. It was Yuan Bao's first time in actual combat.
Compared to the agile and experienced Zhu Sha, it only knows how to bite methodically, and when it gets the chance, it leaps up and uses its shell to crush you like Mount Tai.
This kind of attack, which is easy to miss, is very effective against big, clumsy creatures. With the addition of pets attacking them, the fish monsters can't struggle for long no matter how much they heal.
[Congratulations to the player for successfully defeating the "Elite Fish Monster"! Reward: 2000 experience points and 1 Hunting Mark.]
[The player defeated a level 26 sea monster and gained 336 experience points.]
[Congratulations to the player for surviving the 80th wave of sea monster attacks. Reward: 1 Free Attribute Point.]
She already has two hunting marks, and Shen Dixin doesn't know what they're for yet, but her intuition tells her that they're related to the hunting blade.
Perhaps if it accumulates enough, it will reappear?
He casually added attribute points to his constitution, then stepped forward to touch the corpse; he'd found a scroll last time.
[Collect 22 salty fat chunks, 17 fish scales, 11 bone fragments, 7 coarse shark fins, 2 polluted ocean hearts, and a blue sea creature cooking recipe]
Shen Dixin picked it up and saw that it was similar to fish bait. It was a specially formulated food for sea creatures, which was said to have a mysterious attraction to them.
She was overjoyed; it was just the right opportunity, as she was feeling sleepy. With the sea monster formula, the capture operation would have a much higher success rate!
[Required materials: 2 Green Sea Monster Drops or 1 Blue Sea Monster Drop]
That's easy. Even if you've already recycled a lot of items at the recycling center, as a Monster Hunter, you'll never lack sea monster drops.
With a wave of his hand, Shen Dixin made twenty servings, eager to try them out tonight!
Before going into the water, she used a water level detector to check again, and sure enough, they were still in the waters off Kabul.
"Together?"
After making the appointment with Lu Mingang, this was the first time she had invited him to come along.
Lu Mingang's eyes sparkled, and he patted his chest, "I can help!"
Someone always had to stay at home, but Zhu Sha insisted on following him, even staring at Lu Mingang with a strange look in her eyes.
Lu Mingang: My scalp is tingling.
It bared its teeth and claws, and even pulled out the bone flute that had cleansed the heart. If anything happens, just use the flute to send it back.
After thinking it over, Shen Dixin was persuaded. Only Yuanbao stayed behind to guard the house. It didn't want to go out at all, and it didn't want to immerse itself in the water. After all, it was a tortoise!
“At the confluence of the tides… silverfish are their favorite food, but they usually don’t eat much, so Luobin often lingers near the school of fish so that he can eat whenever he wants.”
Shen Di thought about the habits recorded in the marine mammal encyclopedia, "Let's find the school of fish first, it's too dark to see clearly."
Zhu Sha volunteered, as a marine creature, it had its own methods for finding food.
Everyone has their own area of expertise, and I have no intention of getting involved in this.
After all, no matter how much human senses are modified, they can't be made to be like infrared detectors; at most, they can use tiny light sources to find their way in dim light.
"Let's go hunting."
The two dived to a shallower area. The rock leopard inhabits shallow waters and likes to sunbathe on the rocks, so the waters where it appears are generally shallow, making it easy to touch the bottom.
Many marine creatures rest on the seabed, especially at night!
It was Lu Mingang's first time catching seafood at sea, but he picked it up very quickly. Sometimes he could even catch seafood that Shen Dixin hadn't taught him. He was very capable!
After observing for a while, Shen Dixin felt relieved and let him play by himself. The two of them, like diligent little bees, shuttled among various marine plants.
"Zhu Sha said it was found. Luo Bin was attracted by it and is eating something now. It probably won't be long. Let's leave the food here for now, since it's tied with a rope anyway."
They hurried toward Zhusha and soon saw Luobin eating a seafood dish. It was very small, like a rodent that lived in the sea.
It seemed to really enjoy the food, eating with great relish, unaware that people were approaching. Luobin was timid but reckless, making it an easy sea creature to catch.
"Hehehe!"
Shen Dixin, looking like a villain, grinned wickedly, "Got you."
Lu Mingang secretly asked Zhu Sha, "What traumatized Di Xin?"
Zhu Sha slapped his hand in annoyance, "You're the one who's provoked."
Sandpipers are social creatures; when you find the first sandpiper, it means there's already a nest in the corner.
They continued to wait patiently, and finally caught eleven in total, enough for a meal!
They also encountered many creatures with a slight bloodline of sea beasts, such as the degenerate species of Starvine—Starvine.
That's right. Although they look like seaweed and are indeed seaweed, they are carnivorous plants that actively hunt prey.
No matter how diluted their bloodline was, as long as they were attracted by the sea beast cuisine, Chen Dixin did not let any of them go and caught them all!
Yuanbao, who took over the task of collecting the fishing nets, was confused: "Why is there another net after we've finished pulling one? How many ropes did they tie to the boat?!"
