Chapter 463: Chapter 458: When it comes to fishing, it’s always the willing ones who take the bait.
Southern Abyss Coast Association’s office.
Mo Guan put down the document that Mo Li handed in and furrowed his brows, saying, “The giant sea beasts have started stirring again, haven’t they?”
“Yes, although it’s also this time of year that they usually start, the scale of the disturbance this year is particularly large. I suggest increasing the frequency and manpower of patrols and ideally mobilizing some high-stage Beast Masters over.”
Mo Li nodded and said.
“I understand, I’ll arrange to discuss it with Xiao Chuanqi later.”
Mo Guan put down the document and asked, “How’s Bai Qi doing lately? I’ve been too busy to check in on him recently. If Lao Qin hears about this, he’s going to be upset with me again.”
“Bai Qi?”
At Mo Guan’s question, Mo Li’s expression suddenly became strange.
“He’s doing quite well, I should say he’s adapting very well to life here.”
“Oh?”
Mo Guan was somewhat surprised, but Mo Li didn’t elaborate. Instead, he pulled up the sea beast materials that Bai Qi had submitted over the past week and put them onto Mo Guan’s computer.
“Is this guy planning on wiping out the entire sea?”
…
Southern Abyss Coast.
Bai Qi was lounging on the dome of the mobile patrol post, asking the AI next to him, “Schuck, is it really okay for you to leave your main body like this?”
Schuck shook his head and said, “Strictly speaking, I didn’t leave my main body. I just used my consciousness to assimilate this AI.”
“I see.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly, essentially Schuck had refined a clone.
Initially, he was worried due to Schuck’s unique circumstances, and feared that the Quantum Mind Field might not be able to achieve its intended effect. It seemed he was overthinking.
“By the way, what’s Beta up to? He doesn’t have to follow you around all the time, that guy must be pretty pleased, right?”
Bai Qi asked.
“Beta? He’s sleeping.”
“Sleeping?”
Bai Qi’s forehead veins bulged. He had done all this because he saw Beta always tied down by Schuck, and thought it was sad to have to conduct research together all the time. Plus, he was inspired by Jerry, and that’s why he decided to acquire the Quantum Mind Field to free Schuck.
But this guy, he was actually sleeping?!
“To be precise, he should be in a deep sleep.”
Schuck opened the screen of the mobile patrol post and transmitted live footage of his main body.
Across the vast Ice Field Mystery, a cloud of thunder was furiously bombarding away. Thunderbolts all over the sky were being absorbed by numerous energy guiding devices and stored in the energy storage room beneath, providing power to the Ice Field base.
On the other side, a Husky with a burnt body was sticking out its tongue, lying still on the ground.
“This guy, he went and aggravated Jie Ta again.”
Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed helplessly. Was this fool unaware of using Diamond Strength to protect himself?
“Whatever, let him be.”
Bai Qi didn’t bother with Beta’s condition anymore and turned to look outside the post.
After a week’s time, Bai Qi had completely adapted to life in the sea and specifically obtained a mobile patrol post from Mo Li to enable him to move around in the sea more easily.
Additionally, he had found a hunting method unique to him.
You could see Alpha leaning against the ship’s rail, his crystal arm had turned into a long fishing rod, extending into the distant sea.
At the end of the fishing rod, Worm Grass was tightly attached, releasing a colorful vine that plunged into the sea water.
Initially, Bai Qi let the Pets dive deep into the sea to hunt, but due to their race and mode of action, this method was inefficient and required constant seeking, so Bai Qi quickly gave up on it.
Afterwards, he found a more relaxing and faster method.
Yes, it was fishing.
With Alpha as the fisherman and fishing rod, and Worm Grass as the fishing line, even if they encountered some medium to large sea beasts, there was no risk of breakage.
As for the bait…
Was there a more suitable option than Gamma?
Thump thump!
(Another school of fish is coming!)
At that moment, Gamma, wrapped by the colorful vine, suddenly sent out an alert. The drowsy Worm Grass immediately woke up, and tender buds sprouted from the vine, swinging in the wind.
Finally, a dark shadow appeared beneath the sea surface, the target was no doubt Gamma, who was recklessly releasing his power.
Snap snap!
(Reel it in!)
Seeing that the time was ripe, Alpha immediately issued an order, and Gamma, who had been quietly drifting in the water, suddenly extended, turned into a jelly wall to block the path of the school of fish.
Seeing the scene, the school of fish immediately tried to turn around and leave, only to be stopped by numerous colorful vines.
The vines and the jelly intertwined, forming a tight net that enveloped all the fish, and Alpha, who was prepared, pulled hard, pulling the net out of the water.
“Oh, Boned Humpback Fish? That’s a big supplement.”
Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction and began considering lunch. But the Boned Humpback Fish didn’t plan to become someone’s food so easily. They struggled frantically in the net, trying to break free.
Seeing this, Worm Grass skillfully flapped its wings, a strange wave enveloped the Boned Humpback Fish group, and the fish gradually calmed down.
Sleeping fish, is good fish.
The Boned Humpback Fish group was no longer resisting, but Alpha didn’t pull them back to the post, he gently rocked the net, and some small fry fell from the air and returned to the sea.
They could not bring themselves to push a species to extinction.
Afterwards, Alpha swung hard to one side, creating a black space portal in the air and accurately collecting the fishing net into it.
Splish splash.
(Capture completed.)
Delta drilled out of the Void, returning to the outpost with the other four pets.
The sea beasts had a wide variety, almost every kind was exploited by humans to have its corresponding use, and this Bonyspike Filefish was one of the most popular dishes at the Southern Abyss Coast.
“The speed at which I’m making money now is faster than when I endorsed for the Elf House.”
Bai Qi glanced at the resources and capital he had recently acquired from hunting sea beasts, and nodded in satisfaction.
Even though no particularly powerful sea beasts were encountered, and most of the materials obtained were below the Epic level, the profits were quite significant in the face of the large quantities.
“Nice job, catch another round before going back to submit the materials.”
“The density of this generation of sea beasts has fallen below normal levels, it is suggested to hunt in another location.”
Schuck immediately responded to these words, casting a sea beast distribution density map in front of Bai Qi.
“Ah, are there no high-density areas nearby?”
Looking at the large green area on the screen, Bai Qi scratched his head.
“Well, let’s call it a morning. Fresh Bonyspike Filefish is worth a bit more.”
Bai Qi looked at the sun drifting towards the middle of the sky overhead and decided to return home.
Click clack!
(Boss, there’re enemies coming!)
“Enemies?”
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard it, then he saw the distant sea surface, which had been calm, suddenly surging with waves. He could vaguely see a huge shadow slowly swimming towards them.
“According to the Energy Value, there’s an 87% probability that it’s a giant species,” Schuck said.
“Giant species?”
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up, Mo Guan and Mo Li admonished him repeatedly, telling him not to leave the inland water to the area where giant sea beasts roam around, and he obediently obeyed.
But now, the giant sea beast was presenting itself on his doorstep. He shouldn’t be blamed for that, should he?
Naturally, there will be willing prey when fishing.
“Alpha, prepare for battle, Delta, you assist from the side.”
Bai Qi told Schuck to steer the mobile outpost away from the battle area, leaving Alpha and Delta in place.
He had indeed roamed around the inland waters during this period, but the sea beasts active in the inland waters were mostly medium and small-sized. He hadn’t even encountered many large ones.
Now encountering a giant sea beast for the first time, considering the attitudes of people like Mo Guan before, it was better to be cautious.
Finally, after Bai Qi had hidden in a safe area, the giant sea beast finally revealed its true face.
About fifty meters in length, the white belly combined with a glossy black back looked incredibly harmonious. From a distance, it looked a bit cute.
However, after Schuck reported the information about this creature, Bai Qi didn’t think so.
[Name:] Tiger Hunting Demon Whale
[Nature:] Water
[Bloodline Level:] Mid-Level King
[Introduction:] Giant species of sea beasts, the massive body and terrifying power make the Tiger Hunting Demon Whales rule the seas. Their gregarious nature makes them the most terrifying existence in the ocean.
…
“Mid-Level King, giant species, and also gregarious?”
Bai Qi smacked his lips, it seemed, he’d hooked up a big fish.
“Schuck, have you detected any activity signals from the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale groups?”
“Not for the time being. Although the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale are gregarious, the range of activity between them is very wide. This one should have accidentally discovered the scent released by Gamma and came out alone.”
“Uh-huh, I understand.”
Bai Qi nodded, said,”But I remember these Tiger Hunting Demon Whales are quite friendly to humans?”
“Indeed, but I believe it now regards us as food. Would you be friendly to food, Beast Master?”
“Uh…”
Bai Qi came to a realization, said,
“Alpha, Delta, make it quick, lest we invite trouble.”
Click clack.
(Boss, leave it to me.)
Blub blub.
(Alright, master.)
The twin pets accepted the command together. Alpha was the first one to rush out, brandishing the Sword of the Wind Chaser and charging directly at the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale.
All the flesh of the sea beast was generally tonic, so, before finding the lethal weak point, Alpha didn’t easily use the Sword of Death.
After all, the flesh infused with the Power of Death was no longer usable.
Whimpering…
Seeing such a little creature as Alpha daring to rush at him, the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale opened its huge mouth and roared, trying to swallow Alpha whole.
However, when Alpha stabbed the Sword of the Wind Chaser into the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale’s body, the sound from the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale changed.
Wailing!
An inaudible sound echoed all around, even Bai Qi who put on his Gamma armor in time felt dizzy.
The sound frequency of the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale was extremely high, which was indeed a heavy burden on the human body.
However, Alpha, as a skeleton, was unaffected, he swung hard, and the Sword of the Wind Chaser cut a deep and long gash on the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale.
Although he couldn’t release the sword energy like when using the Four Poles Sword Formation, it was easy to extend the blade using the Pursuing Wind Barrier.
