Apocalypse Gachapon C.949: Failed fishing

“Remember carefully. I will head down when the marker moves. All of you attack when that fellow reveals its head; be more accurate!”

Little Peng wore a tight leather shirt of unknown material, revealing his muscular figure. He stared at the ocean surface and gave orders to a 50-person squad.

Beside him were four evolved men holding a giant fishing rod. The long fishing line was tossed into the ocean, and when it landed, fresh blood spread around the ocean's surface.

After saying that, Little Peng checked his equipment.

Two tridents were by his waist, and a harpoon was on his back. There were daggers tied to his arms and his ankle.

He pulled out the trident and looked at the water's surface to see if there was any movement.

“So long?”

A subordinate muttered. He frowned and was slightly impatient.

Fishing in the base hadn’t been going well recently. The number of prey had reduced compared to a few days ago, which caused their gains to decline. Even Little Peng came himself today. They were also using the most precious bait-- mutated lamb meat. If those fellows that swam near the shore didn’t get on the hook, they could basically confirm that something was happening in the ocean.

“It moved!”

The giant marker sunk, causing everyone to focus. Little Peng looked to the side. That person closed his eyes, and mental energy surged from his body. It spread across the ocean surface and reached the marker.

He then opened his eyes and nodded to Little Peng, “Mutated dolphin fish, but only one. But I can’t sense its level.”

This was a special job, “Brain Artist”. The main ability was to consume mental energy to scan a specific location and sense what was happening there.

As the job level increased, the ability would get stronger. One could even scan a very far location when it reached the highest level.

As the situation in the ocean was very dangerous, when the Cloud Port division fished for such quick and strong fishes like the Dolphin Fish, they would definitely bring this evolved along. If there were too many of them or if there were dangers in the water, they wouldn’t head in and would just try to drag the fish onto shore.

However, as the Mutated Dolphin Fish was very powerful, Cloud Peak’s fishing line couldn’t last long. It would break in a few seconds. Their fishing attempt would fail if they couldn’t pull it up quickly.

Little Peng ran on shore before diving into the water. The others prepared their skills. The moment the dolphin fish showed its head, they would attack it. The four guys holding the thick rod also controlled the fish in the water to prevent the fishing line from breaking.

As he had the Ocean King Crown mark, Little Peng could breathe underwater, his water resistance dropped, and he also had sensory and water healing. The moment he got down, he swam like a fish in water.

A giant figure was moving about there. Not only was it not worried that a special hook hooked its mouth, but it was even more violent. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Little Peng’s heart sank because he guessed the Dolphin Fish’s level.

Normal speaking, the higher the level, the bigger the body. Although there were exceptions, but most of them followed this rule.

This dolphin fish was a huge ball. Little Peng felt that it was at least level five.

As expected, when he got close, the dolphinfish noticed him and bared its teeth, revealing the red crystal on its forehead.

Level six!

Little Peng turned and left immediately!

He had no choice. If he were on shore, he wouldn’t be afraid. He was a six-star evolved and had good equipment. Even if he couldn’t defeat a beast of the same level, he could keep himself safe.

But even if he had the Ocean King Mark, he wasn’t confident in defeating it underwater. If he was not careful, there was a high chance that he would die.

Seeing the human suddenly turn to flee, that fellow who was struggling with the hook calmed down. It then pushed through the water and chased.

The people by the shore realized that something was unusual. Moreover, that Brain Artist used his job skill again. He pointed at the water and shouted, “A bunch of mutated dolphinfish are getting close!”

Many people’s skills landed between Little Peng at that level six mutated dolphin fish to try to stop that fellow that had revealed the sharp scales on its back.

Little Peng was quick but not as fast as the ocean lifeform behind him. When he was 20 meters from the shore, that dolphinfish was close to him. It opened its mouth and fired a ball of ocean sand, which struck him.

He didn’t dodge and continued to swim.

When it was about to hit him, a purplish black figure rose from the area where Little Peng passed. It blocked behind him and took the hits.

At the same time, a purple liquid spat from that lifeform’s body, dying the ocean water the same color.

That dolphin fish turned, and that fishing line broke. That fierce dolphinfish shook its body twice before turning and leaving.

Little Peng got to shore and turned to see the lifeform that helped him block the attack slowly floating over. This was his battle pet. It was now level five, and looked very soft, but its defense was high. However, it had toxins that even level six and seven lifeforms feared.

Everyone raised the broken rod and rushed over in dejection.

The line and hook were specially made. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to trick a cunning mutated lifeform. Each loss was a huge one.

“It is okay, next time…”

“Boss!”

A person rushed over hurriedly, which attracted all the attention.

“Boss, that, boss is here!”

Everyone was confused, and they only redacted a few seconds later. Little Peng led them over and saw Ye Zhongming strolling in the camp.

Everyone was delighted. After talking about the recent situation, Ye Zhongming told them to find a spot for the son platform and also told them how to use and nurture it.

He then heard that Little Peng and the others had gone fishing, so he became interested. He took them to carry the Bluewater Boat and returned to the ocean shore.
