Chapter 164: The Anglers in the Swamp
Gordon was a little speechless.
In terms of rules and mission flow, the behavior that Azi said was against the rules of the Hunters' Guild.
But in fact, many hunters have done this, and it can really save a lot of trouble.
Anhill, who had done even the more serious "sneaking away", didn't care so much, and he continued to ask: "Do you need any other materials besides this 'shrimp shell'?"
If we can collect it in the swamp, we'll collect it together, and we'll be able to make new armor directly when we get to Dondoruma. ”
Feng Ying looked at Azi expectantly.
Azzy habitually wanted to touch his hair in a bun, but found that he was wearing a helmet, so he had to give up.
"Remember to have a few more 'water dragon fins', and the rest are all commonly used materials, finches, termites or something."
"Well, the water dragon, sure enough, you also need to hunt large monsters, then it's more troublesome, poaching has anti-guild rules, you can't mess around." Gordon mused.
"Water dragons? Is it a wyvern monster? Feng Ying's mind conjured up the image of a dragon spraying water waves.
"It seems that there are no water dragons in the Western Continent." Gordon said with a smile: "The water dragon is an ichthyosaur monster, not a flying dragon, it is quite large, and it usually lives in the water, which is a very tricky existence among three-star monsters." ”
"Sounds a bit like the 'Huangquan Singer' mermaid dragon?"
"What's that?"
Az Xing, who was extremely excited when he heard the word "fish", rushed to ask: "Is it also a fish?" Is it big? Is it tasty? ”
Feng Ying recalled: "Hmm, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I heard from the hunters in the village that the body is not too big, it looks like a human, it can sing, it will make people fall asleep or something." ”
The expressions of the other three suddenly became subtle, and the image of the mermaid was made up in their minds.
Respect for this amazing nature?
With its own goals, even if it is just incidental goals, the group's itinerary in the swamp has become a lot more fulfilling.
Over the next few days, searching for traces of the shield crab swarm, tracking them down, and defeating them became Fengying's main job.
If you have help, you might be much more efficient.
But Gordon insisted that this was an opportunity to exercise his style, and adhered to the principle that "hunters' equipment should be acquired by themselves", choosing to watch from the sidelines.
Eventually, it evolved into Feng Ying riding Amber on her own to defeat the shield crab group, collecting fragments of the shield crab skull that could be used to prove the results of the crusade.
The other three big men and a cat were eating crab shells around the bonfire, and they were very happy to eat, and their mouths were full of oil.
Reasonable exploitation of child labor belongs to yes.
Feng Ying is very aggrieved, but she is also very coaxed.
Gordon Pork Chop Azi made all kinds of delicacies for her in a variety of ways, and Feng Ying, who was filled with delicious food, all resentment disappeared.
More than a week passed like this.
When the dull "boom" sound of water waves, and the drizzle of fine water mist rushed to the face.
The huge river that split the continent's largest swamp in two appeared before them.
The three forks of a large river, somewhere beside a gentle river bay.
Gordon and his party each had a fishing rod in hand and waited quietly for the fish to take the bait.
Feng Ying is the most impatient, and every few tens of seconds she always wants to pick up the hook to see if there is any gain, which also makes her the only one among the few people by the river who has not gained.
"Why?" muttered Feng Ying.
"I told you to be patient, even if there are fish approaching the rod, you will be scared away." Gordon, sitting cross-legged on a boulder, said leisurely.
Occasional fishing to relax and relax is still very purifying for the soul.
"You can put the rod down first."
Anhill, who also gained a lot of money, said slowly: "Don't learn Azi's shake rod, he is imitating the dynamics of a small fish escaping in the water, seducing a big fish to take the bait, and he can't learn it in two strokes."
As a novice, it is better to honestly wait for the float to sink and then lift the rod. ”
Feng Ying was a little unconvinced, but looking at the net bags full of other people's feet, she couldn't help but be unconvinced.
In the end, he had to put the fishing rod on the shelf, stared at the water with his cheeks and began to be in a daze, and unconsciously hummed the ballad of the Land of Fire:
“a~~yahi a~fuli u~~su~lehi ya~huxi u~~mi~yati ha~~~”
The little girl's thin and soft voice was very good, although she couldn't understand the meaning, but it didn't prevent Gordon from enjoying this ballad full of Western Continent style.
It's just that the more I listen, the more sleepy I become, what's going on?
At this moment, the buoy in front of Feng Ying suddenly sank.
"The buoy is moving, lift the rod!" Az, who was the most serious about fishing among the several people, suddenly reminded.
Feng Ying was stunned for a second, then immediately lifted the fishing rod, this time, she finally had a harvest.
A small fry, barely half the size of a palm, jumped around hanging on a hook.
Feng Ying: "."
"Clam clam clam clam!" Gordon couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Put it back, give it back to nature, and wait for the day when it grows up." Azi looked at Feng Ying with a smile and encouraged, "No matter how big or small it is, as long as you start at the beginning, it will be easier in the future!"
Huh? The fish are coming, too! ”
As he spoke, Azi lifted the rod hard, and the fishing line instantly tightened, and the rod was pulled out of a heavy arc that made it suspect that it would break in the next second.
After a period of fishing and pulling, after a few minutes, Azi finally brought up a giant spring night carp more than 100 centimeters long.
"Haha! What a catch! Is it the catch attracted by the singing of the little sister of Fengying? ”
Feng Ying: "."
She puffed out her mouth, dropped her fishing rod and ran away in a huff.
"Where are you going?" Gordon hurriedly put down the fishing rod and turned his head to ask.
"Find a bait that's better for catching big fish!"
"Bait for big fish?" Gordon looked at Aziz with some confusion, "What bait is good for catching big fish?" ”
As long as it was about fishing, Aziz answered very seriously, "Animal liver, fake bait, small fish, you can do it, but it depends more on skill and luck." ”
Gordon shrugged, not trying to chase Feng Ying back.
Let her go, she is also a hunter, and she is not an ordinary child who is defenseless.
Feng Ying was a little long gone, and after more than half an hour, she returned with a huge frog the size of a plate.
“.”
Gordon stared at her speechlessly, "Is this the lunch you prepared for us?" ”
Feng Ying bared her teeth from Gordon's usual expression, "No, this is the ingredient for the big fish." ”
With that, Feng Ying hung the hook on the giant frog's chin and kicked it into the river.
Regarding Feng Ying's childish behavior, Gordon and the three of them were speechless.
Azzi, who has a certain obsession with fishing, opened his mouth and muttered to himself: "That's not how you catch big fish, how big a fish can eat such a big one"
The voice did not fall.
The fishing rod in Feng Ying's hand jerked forward, and she was almost dragged into the river before she could react.
Hurriedly stepping her feet on a raised boulder to temporarily stabilize her body, she shouted, "Take the bait, take the bait!" There's a big fish coming! ”
Only the rod, which was the size of an egg, broke in two after a few seconds, but thanks to Az's quick hand to reach for the spear and quickly circle the fishing line to replace the rod, it barely held on.
Gordon Anhill also quickly rushed over to help, and the four of them worked together to drag the body of the spear and focus on the horn of the "big fish" in the river.
At this moment, a huge colorful fin pierced the water, and the indigo-blue back loomed.
Beneath the surface of the water, the looming shadow is so large that it has exceeded the concept of "fish", and the visible part alone exceeds ten meters.
"Hah! Ganototos (Water Dragon)! Azi shouted laughing.
