"Dad, have you ever seen a floating fish?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked curiously in a low voice.
Zhao Gang shook his head. What the floating fish is is not important; what matters is that one can be exchanged for two hundred points.
He immediately replied, "Go, we'll head out right away."
us?
Mo Shigui frowned slightly. Was Zhao Gang going to bring the child again?
He guessed right.
When the patrol car arrived at Territory No. 13, Zhao Gang was standing by the roadside, wearing a raincoat and holding Zhao Xiaoxiu, who was also wearing a raincoat.
"Zhao Gang, why do you take the child everywhere you go!" Mo Shigui thought to himself, speechless.
"Get in the car."
The patrol soldier in the passenger seat opened the back door for the father and daughter.
Zhao Gang first put the prepared long pole and weapons into the trailer at the back of the patrol car, then put his daughter in, and finally got in and closed the door.
“My name is Aji.” The patrol soldier in the passenger seat extended his hand in a friendly manner.
Zhao Gang and Zhao Xiaoxiu also extended their hands to shake his hand and introduced themselves.
Aji smiled and said, "I know."
They have the lord's information, but they only received it yesterday afternoon.
"The pears are very sweet." Aji gave a thumbs up to show his approval.
He was about to continue the conversation when Mo Shigui twisted his ear and pulled him back.
"Open the door!" Mo Shigui ordered as he parked the car.
The person standing at the intersection wearing a yellow raincoat is Dongfang Ling from Territory No. 12.
Aji gestured for the father and daughter in the back seat to squeeze to the side, and opened the door to let Dongfang Ling get in the car.
"You only brought one gun?" Aji asked in surprise.
Dongfang Ling ignored him, nodded to the father and daughter in the car, and sat by the window.
The patrol car turned around and headed north.
Four or five patrol cars also emerged from other side roads, along with other lords who were traveling by car to territories number 1 and 8.
With such a commotion, even if people can't catch the floating fish, they still have to come and take a look.
At the junction of Territories 1 and 8, all vehicles were forced to stop.
Ahead is a bridge connecting the north and south.
There is a large river under the bridge. This is the upper reaches of the river, which is wider than the lower reaches, measuring forty-two meters.
At this moment, in the heavy rain, more than ten meters above the river surface.
Silver, floating fish, as long as a human arm and as wide as a palm, with pointed snouts and flat tails, were swimming merrily in the rain.
Their silver scales constantly emitted dazzling light, and from a distance, the rain curtain turned into a pearly ribbon spread across the river, constantly radiating a charming pearly luster in the rain.
When Zhao Xiaoxiu first saw the floating fish, she was so captivated by the aura emanating from them that she couldn't help but exclaim "Wow!"
It turns out that the floating fish don't actually float in the air, but rather swim in the rain.
The powerful repulsive magnetic field affected the spatial tension in this area of the bridge, causing the patrol car that had just entered this space to become lighter, giving it the illusion of floating on water, forcing everyone to get out of the car.
"My God, this is the first time I've ever seen so many floating fish!" Hao Ran exclaimed from the crowd.
Dongfang Ling glanced over, a slight sneer on his lips.
Hao Ran looked over, saw Zhao Gang and his daughter, waved to them, and then ran up to Dongfang Ling and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything, I just laugh when I feel like it," Dongfang Ling said sarcastically.
Hao Ran was completely baffled and was about to retort when Zhang Lijun eagerly approached Mo Shigui to ask for advice:
"Station Chief Mo, you're the boss here. We'll follow your orders. You tell us how to catch these floating fish, and we'll do it."
These words sounded nice, but Mo Shigui frowned.
"Never caught a floating fish?"
The lords gave an awkward smile; it was indeed the first time.
"The main problem is that these mutated fish are very hard to come by," the lord of Land Number One explained.
Mo Shigui took a deep breath, waved for Aji to give them a briefing, and went to arrange for the other patrol members.
Aji said, "Floating fish usually appear on the river surface after continuous rainy days, and they disappear when the rain stops, so we have to hurry."
"To catch the floating fish, you can't use guns or arrows. They are very sensitive to magnetic fields, and once the magnetic field in the rain is subjected to sharp, concentrated interference, they will immediately escape."
"So we can only take a gentle approach, using nets and other tools to bring them down from the air."
"This type of fish is not very aggressive, but when it is restrained and startled, it will release a very strong magnetic field, which may cause people to float up and be difficult to control, so you should be careful."
The lord of Plot 8 asked curiously, "What happens when a person floats up?"
"It won't be a big deal." Aji grinned mischievously. "Just a fall from a great height."
Or they might get caught on tree branches or power lines, and if they're even less lucky, they might lose their grip and fall into the river to drown, or be blown away by the wind to some unknown place and die.
"In short, once you find yourself being pulled into the air, either let go immediately to save your life, or hold on tight and don't let go until the fish gets tired of struggling and will naturally fall down slowly."
Aji waved his hand, signaling the lords to begin their work; he too was about to rejoin the ranks.
Floating fish are one of the main sources of material for levitation boards, and the rewards are very high. As long as you master the catching methods, the difficulty is not too high.
The patrol team is all geared up and ready to get down to business.
They have custom-made jets that can cast fishing nets, which are then towed by vehicles and people, resulting in a considerable harvest each time.
There are definitely several thousand floating fish in this river, if not ten thousand. This group of people doesn't need to fight for them at all. Even if they catch one randomly, they will get two hundred points.
The lords who originally came just to watch the excitement are now eager to try it out.
"Brother Zhao, shall we join you?" Zhang Lijun walked over with Lords No. 14 and No. 15 and extended a warm invitation to Zhao Gang.
In the entire B area, apart from Mo Shigui, no one else knows how strong Zhao Gang's evolutionary ability is.
Zhang Lijun's intention was clear: he wanted to see just how capable Zhao Gang really was.
"No, thank you," Zhao Gang refused.
The others have already formed teams of two or three, since more people means more weight, and it's more stable to pull the fish together.
Seeing Zhao Gang's cold refusal, they all looked over.
Zhao Gang, however, acted as if nothing was wrong and walked towards the middle of the bridge with his daughter and the long pole he had prepared.
After finding a less crowded spot, Zhao Gang put Zhao Xiaoxiu down from his arms.
The little guy was mesmerized by the fish, and absentmindedly licked his lips, looking quite greedy.
Dongfang Ling found it strange; he had never heard of floating fish being edible.
She was pestered by Bai Cailing, the female doctor from plot number 6, who insisted on teaming up with her and dragged her to the middle of the bridge.
This place has a good view, there are many fish, and most importantly, it's close to Zhao Gang. She was curious about what his tiny tentacle could do.
Dongfang Ling was annoyed by Bai Cailing's sneaky and gossipy manner, so he shook off her hand that was wrapped around his arm and set up his gun on the bridge railing.
Bai Cailing was startled: "What are you doing? I told you not to use a gun, it will scare the fish away... Ah!"
