Chapter 333 - Unexpected Encounter In Water
When Han Fei plucked one of the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers from the back of the frog, he saw that its edge was green and knew that it had cut the poison sac.
Oddly enough, the back of the frog was in different shades, so it was hard to tell it from the algae, but the parts with a deeper color were where the venom was stored.
Han Fei had an idea when he saw the venom. Wouldn’t it be easy and convenient to deal with strong enemies with venom?
Immediately, Han Fei took out several vials and carefully stored the venom of the frog.
After some hard work, Han Fei gathered about fifty ounces of venom.
Then, he sat on his boat and flew out of the Seaborne Prairie, ready to submerge where the seaweed was less dense.
A moment later, Han Fei appeared at the bottom of the sea. He was more or less scared by the dim creepy plants.
Back when he and his teammates explored the Deep-Sea Jungle in the level-two fishery, Wenren Yu came to their rescue many times.
This time, he didn’t have any teammates, so he made a plan for himself. He could explore this place, but for no more than a thousand kilometers. He wouldn’t press further until he confirmed that the creatures behind that boundary weren’t too dangerous for him.
At the bottom of the ocean…
Han Fei swam forward silently and steadily.
He could see nothing but algae and seaweed that was slightly floating along with the water current.
He felt that his blood was freezing after a quick glance. He saw that much of the algae had been nibbled on by Spirit Devouring Bugs.
Those bugs were not horrifying when they were alone, but there were too many of them.
Han Fei kept a distance from the algae that were haunted by the Spirit Devouring Bugs. Although those insects were only level-three, anyone who approached a swarm of them would have no chance to regret it.
Thankfully, the algae weren’t so dense at the edge of the Seaborne Prairie, and Han Fei could still avoid the Spirit Devouring Bugs. After about twenty kilometers, the algae grew intense, and Han Fei saw plenty of Ponytail Algae, which floated in the water like long snakes. Han Fei would’ve attacked them if he hadn’t seen their roots.
But Han Fei was shocked when he entered the jungle of those Ponytail Algae as they trembled all of a sudden.
To Han Fei’s shock, creatures that looked like lines extended from the inside of the Ponytail Algae.
<Name> Beauty’s Beard
<Introduction> This is a bloodthirsty parasite that lives inside Ponytail Algae. They can be a hundred meters long and can suck their enemy’s blood after entangling with them. They can be used to weave fishing nets.
<Level>33
<Quality> Rare
<Spiritual Energy> 516 Points
<Effect> Inedible
<Collectible> Vine Vein
<Absorbable>
Han Fei was slightly stunned. Those insects could be weaved into a fishing net? He had never seen such a material before.
Fishing nets were not a new concept, but there were no suitable materials for a fishing net in the level-one or level-two fisheries. The Blood Spider Silk was too thin to make a net. Han Fei did not expect to see a suitable material in the level-three fishery.
However, Han Fei was in no mood to weave a fishing net now, because he had been surrounded by Beauty’s Beards and had to survive first.
Han Fei tried to cut the Beauty’s Beards with the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Daggers, but then he realized that those insects were smart enough to dodge his attacks.
After two attacks, Han Fei cut one of them, but when he turned around, he was surrounded by hundreds more.
“Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp, come out and dig holes.”
Having no choices, Han Fei could only dig down. He had estimated that he would be tied up by the Beauty’s Beards soon considering how slowly he was cutting them.
But out of Han Fei’s expectation, roots of plants attacked him after he had just dug dozens of meters into the soil with the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp. “Huh? Are those plants all crazy?”
Han Fei cut them with the daggers and found that there were no Beauty’s Beards so they could be chopped easily, so he asked the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp to continue.
Han Fei knew that the soil could be dangerous too, but it would still be much safer than the Beauty’s Beards and the Spirit Devouring Bugs up above.
After Han Fei and the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp minced countless roots and killed dozens of Mess Swallowing Worms and sea serpents, he sensed enormous quakes above his head and asked the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp to dig upwards. But before he dug out, he found three people lurking inside the mud.
Han Fei: “???”
The three strangers: “???”
The mud exploded all of a sudden.
The three of them attacked Han Fei simultaneously.
“Great! We didn’t expect to meet someone else here. But you’re by yourself, and you should die.”
All the four of them rushed out of the mud and glared at each other.
Han Fei saw that the three strangers were using a hook, an axe, and a saber respectively. They were all beginner Dangling Fishers and in their fusion state. They seemed determined to kill him.
Han Fei was lost for words. “Hey! Let’s just talk nicely. Who are you people?” “Who are we? Hehe. Stop pretending. You know who we are. Kill him…”
The guy with a saber charged at Han Fei with enormous waves, and his companions covered him.
Han Fei spoke telepathically, Do you really not want to talk?
“You can talk to the Sea God… Die!”
BAM!
Hiu! Hiu! Hiu!
A terrifying power suddenly emerged, and the Water Dividing Seal knocked out the saber guy easily. The outbreak of the nine star chains was so unexpected that the hook guy had been tied up before he could react.
The axe guy was the poorest. He saw nothing but a gold and red flash, before he was blown a hundred meters away into the Ponytail Algae as if he had been hit by a hill.
“No… Help me…”
Han Fei saw that the man was instantly tied up by the Ponytail Algae, and countless tentacles were trying to crawl into his body. But since they couldn’t break his defense, they could only enter his eyes, ears, mouth and nose.
Han Fei was quite appalled by the scene. Was that the outcome of being caught by the Beauty’s Beards? It seemed rather bloody.
The other two strangers weren’t any better. The saber guy had been smashed into the mud by Han Fei’s seal.
But he abandoned his teammate and escaped, because he had recognized the gold and red flash to be a contractual spiritual beast that had wings.
Han Fei didn’t give him a chance at all. He had been too heavily wounded after the strike of the Water Dividing Seal to escape anyway.
Han Fei took out the Blue Sea Wandering Dragon Bow and transformed 1,600 points of spiritual energy into an arrow, which rumbled through the running man. The man couldn’t understand to his death how this stranger could be so strong when he was a beginner Dangling Fisher too.
The battle was not long or impressive. While Han Fei could hardly defeat a peak Dangling Fisher, he could crush five guys of his level very easily.
The last of them, handcuffed by the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp, was horrified when Han Fei walked to him slowly.
“Don’t kill me. I can tell you everything.”
Han Fei’s lips curled. “Is that so? Someone told me that nobody is to be believed in the level-three fishery. If you want to live, tell me your secrets.” The man said in panic, “I have secrets. I have…”Han Fei’s eyes glittered. “Oh? Tell me about them. You have only one chance, and you’d better seize it.”
The man looked at Han Fei as if he were a devil. “Will you really let go of me?”
Han Fei said impatiently, “If you waste any more of my time, I’ll send you to the Sea God.”
The man shivered and said, “I know a treasure trove three thousand kilometers into the Seaborne Prairie.”
Han Fei stared at the man without blinking. Three thousand kilometers? He had met a lot of dangers after he just traveled a hundred kilometers, and this guy thought he could go three thousand?
Han Fei said, “I said you only had one chance. You’re telling me that the three of you could go three thousand kilometers into it? You think I’m an idiot?”
The man shook his head quickly. “No! No! We have a map.”
Han Fei was refreshed. “Give me that!”
