10 Chapter 7: Mocked by a Fish?
Translator: 549690339
“Snowy, you eat it.”
Chen Fan took out the bread: “I have bread.”
Snowy stared at Chen Fan without moving.
Looking into her sapphire-like eyes, Chen Fan felt his heart melting.
“I can’t cultivate yet. If we encounter powerful monsters, we can only rely on your ‘Thunder Cat Claw’.”
Chen Fan gently touched Snowy’s head and said, “Besides, the fish in that river are quite powerful. When catching fish, your attacks are necessary too.”
“So if you’re full and have enough energy, we’ll be safer.”
Snowy blinked and lowered her head, eating the chicken leg.
After Snowy finished eating the chicken leg and drank some water, Chen Fan put her on his shoulder, held the fishing spear, and ran towards the southeast direction like the wind.
With Snowy’s power replenishing him, his strength increased greatly, and he didn’t feel tired at all when running!
Chen Fan even felt that, with his current strength, he could run faster than before even if he carried a pig on his shoulder!
After another two miles, a river about seven or eight meters wide appeared in Chen Fan’s sight.
Sinking Star River…
“Be careful. There are many level 2 and level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish in the river. They’re very powerful!”
Chen Fan put Snowy on the ground, and they both approached the riverbank with caution.
When he was about six meters away from the riverbank, Chen Fan stopped and hid behind a big tree with Snowy.
According to the information he found on Qiandu, six meters was already within the attack range of the Blue Scaled Demonic Fish.
At this distance, it was also the most suitable for Snowy’s “Thunder Cat Claw”… If it were further away, the attack power of the “Thunder Cat Claw” would greatly decrease.
Chen Fan peeked out from behind the tree, squinting his eyes. In his sight, a series of system panels appeared in the Sinking Star River…
[Monster Name]: Blue Scaled Demonic Fish
[Combat Power Level]: 1-3 (Ordinary)
[Species Level]: Awakened/Moderate
[Monster Attribute]: Water
[Monster Weakness]: Earth
[Species Skills]: Water Gun, Water Cannon Bomb
[Monster Status]: Joyful
[Monster Preference]: Loves to fight, attacks wildly at any sign of movement
[Potential Level]: One-star
[Breakthrough Requirements]:…
[Evolution Route]: Two routes…
“What the hell? A bunch of battle maniacs?”
Chen Fan stared at the system panel, speechless.
A group of fish actually loved fighting and would wildly attack at any sign of movement?
Chen Fan quickly took a look at the big tree he was hiding behind as well as the Cyan Stone more than two meters high on his right.
Both the tree and the stone had many irregular holes… all traces of the damage inflicted by the Blue Scaled Demonic Fish!
Chen Fan gasped and felt as if he had accidentally entered a wolf’s den.
If such attacks hit his body, wouldn’t he be riddled with holes?
After a moment of hesitation, Chen Fan looked back at the Sinking Star River.
“One, two, three… No way! There are eight Level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish and fifteen Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish in this section of the river?”
Chen Fan frowned, picked up a stone, and threw it towards the Sinking Star River.
“Plop!”
The stone fell into the water.
The next moment…
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
One after another, the water bullets shot over like spearheads!
Some water bullets hit the tree, shaking it and making loud noises!
Some water bullets flew past the tree, landing on distant stones and tree trunks, punching holes in them.
“…”
Chen Fan’s eyes widened, speechless.
It was fortunate that these fish couldn’t get ashore. If they could…
There’s no way to win, just admit defeat.
Time to change locations.
Holding a fishing spear to fight a group of fish wielding “guns” didn’t make sense.
Chen Fan waved his hand and decisively took Snowy back about five meters, then followed along the Sinking Star River downstream.
A few minutes later…
“Meow!”
Snowy tugged at Chen Fan’s pant leg and pointed its little paw to the left.
Chen Fan looked in that direction and couldn’t help but laugh…
A small water pit!
A stream from the Sinking Star River had formed a water pit with a diameter of less than three meters in a depression!
Chen Fan gestured, and he and Snowy sneaked over to the little water pit.
They hid behind a stone less than three meters away from the edge of the water pit, and Chen Fan looked out…
System panels were appearing one by one.
Six Level 1 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish and one Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish!
No Level 3!
Chen Fan was thrilled.
If he couldn’t defeat a Level 3, could he not defeat a Level 2?
Chen Fan picked up a stone with a diameter of one foot and threw it directly into the water pit.
“Plop!”
As the stone hit the water, it splashed high.
A few water columns flew out of the water pit at an angle.
But because the water surface was more than a meter above the ground, the water columns either hit the mud or flew diagonally into the sky, posing no threat to Chen Fan and Snowy crouching on the ground.
Suddenly…
Two apple-sized, rainbow-glowing water bubbles floated up from the edge of the water pit.
“… ”
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment before his face changed dramatically, and he picked up Snowy and jumped behind the cyan stone!
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
As Chen Fan grimaced in pain behind the stone, two water bubbles on the other side exploded like bombs!
This was the Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish’s skill, “Water Cannon Bomb!”
Chen Fan had seen this skill before in the system panel.
He never would have thought…
Chen Fan struggled to get up and saw that the other side of the cyan stone was full of holes from the Water Cannon Bomb’s explosion!
“How can this be…”
Chen Fan was shocked and furious, puffing smoke from his seven orifices, as he picked up another larger stone.
He carefully peeked out his head beside the water pit…
He saw the only Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish in the water pit spitting a string of bubbles at him…
“Boduo Boduo Boduo!”
Chen Fan blinked and looked at Snowy, “Is this stupid fish mocking us?”
Snowy nodded: “Mm-hmm!”
Chen Fan was speechless.
He never imagined that he would be mocked by a fish one day.
“Don’t be too arrogant!”
Chen Fan shouted, “Today, I have to catch you and roast you!”
Inside the water pit, the fish’s eyes showed contempt as it spat out another string of bubbles.
“Boduo Boduo Boduo!”
Then, two of the bubbles suddenly grew bigger and flew upward.
“It’s this move again!”
Chen Fan dropped the big stone, picked up Snowy, and ran.
The Blue Scaled Demonic Fish’s Water Gun was quite fast, but the Water Bubble Bomb was much slower. It floated gently in the air, and as long as they were a little careful, they were unlikely to get hit.
Sure enough…
When Chen Fan and Snowy had run seven or eight meters away, the water bubbles exploded like bombs less than four seconds after they surfaced.
A series of cone-shaped water columns shot out in all directions.
