nKlein had marked the place where the fishing device was buried.
nHe took out a shovel and dug down.
nAbout two meters deep, he saw a square iron box.
nIt was completely khaki in color, similar to the color of the sand.
nThere were some patterns on its surface, and two symbols that were identical to the earth runes could be clearly seen.
nKlein picked up the iron box, and sand constantly flowed out from the fine holes below.
nThere was an entrance to the front of this thing. Once the Sand Fish entered, they would be trapped inside.
nTo check if he had caught any Sand Fish, he could check through the peephole above.
nKlein lowered his head and approached the peephole. As the sand inside decreased, he gradually saw some figures.
nThey were indeed fish!
nThere was more than one!
nHe carried the fishing device back.
nHe lifted the lid above and saw five different types of Sand Fish jumping around.
nThey did not smell fishy, and the smell of the soil was heavy.
nTwo of them had purple backs, and their fins were long.
nThe jades looked like fish, and their bodies were yellowish-brown.
nTwo of them were round, and their tails looked like hammers.
nSystem notification: Purple-Backed Sand Fish 2
nSystem notification: Long Sand Fish 1
nSystem notification: Hammertail Sand Fish 2
nTheir names were simple and unadorned, and they were close to their physical characteristics.
nPurple-Back Sand Fish: Meat is fresh and tender and looks good. Current consumption of satiation index is 1 star, overall score 43.
nLong Sand Fish: Meat is slightly smelly, no nutritional value. Soft mouth, toothless. Current consumption of satiation index is half a star, overall score 32.
nHammertail Sand Fish: Meat is chewy, rich in trace elements. Current consumption of satiation index is 1 star, overall score 45.
nThe three types of Sand Fish, from satiation index to overall score, lagged behind the crypt creatures.
n‘I wonder if Sand Fish can give souls?’
nJust as Klein thought of this, he had already chopped up the Purple-Backed Sand Fish.
nThe system didn’t give him any feedback.
nIt seemed like not all crypt creatures had souls.
nPerhaps it was because the Sand Fish were too weak.
nKlein thought for a moment before saying, “Let’s keep these fish for now.”
nKlein walked to a corner and beside the meat field. He used a slate to build a more spacious container.
nHe then poured sand into it and placed the other three Sand Fish down.
nWhen the three Sand Fish touched the sand, they immediately dived down.
nThey seemed to have an affinity with the earth element similar to that of a Gold-Digging Dwarf, so the sand didn’t pose much of a resistance to them.
nKlein watched for a few minutes and sprinkled a handful of rice grains on top.
nOccasionally, he could see the rice grains sink. They were probably dragged down by the Sand Fish and eaten.
n‘I wonder if anyone likes the Long Sand Fish? Let’s try putting it up.’
nKlein originally wanted to use the Long Sand Fish to make fertilizer, but after some thought, he decided to put it up on the trading market.
nAfter all, it was a living thing.
nSo far, no one had placed a living thing in the trading channel.
nPerhaps it was a rare commodity!
nIf some people were too lonely and didn’t meet a player, they might need a pet to accompany them.
nThere were many people who raised fish in the real world.
nIn the trading channel.
nSeller: Klein 182.56
nTrade Item: Long Sand Fish
nRequirements: Any rune
nInventory: 1
nSeller’s message: Live fish. You can feed it by simply finding a container and putting sand in it. I suspect that it has good room for growth. It will be a good partner for you in the future.
n..
nIn order to increase the selling point, Klein casually made up a paragraph.
nThe Sand Fish was successfully put on the shelf.
nKlein put away the runic base and set off for the abandoned Earth Dragon nest.
nIn less than half a minute.
nThe world channel was already discussing the matter of the Long Sand Fish.
n“Holy **, there’s fish in the catacombs world?”
n“Hahaha, I also just discovered that Big Brother Klein has a live fish put up. The description says that it’s not delicious. If anyone is lacking a partner, they can buy it and keep it.”
n“Didn’t you guys notice Big Brother Klein’s message? This fish might be extraordinary! Who wants to lend a rune to me? I want to buy it and cultivate it.”
n“Hasn’t Klein already domesticated crypt creatures? His seller’s message has a certain level of trust.”
n“Why can’t we catch Sand Fish? Does Klein have fishing tools or fishing techniques? Please tell us, Big Brother!”
n“Did you hear? Someone met Big Brother Klein this morning. This fellow is too fierce. He killed a large spider with a single slash, just like Superman!”
n“That’s normal. I can even deal with crypt creatures. Big Brother will definitely have it easier. Don’t look at Big Brother like an ordinary person. They’re all very impressive. Big Brother Klein is one of the best.”
n“I’ll buy that fish. It has temperature and is quite useful. Big Brother Klein isn’t wrong. It can indeed help.”
n“???”
n“There’s a pervert among us!”
nWith just a live fish, Klein once again attracted attention and was hotly discussed by many people.
nEven the matter of Klein saving the two players this morning was revealed.
nYesterday, Klein was still a sinister and terrifying figure, but today, he had become a big brother who helped out!
nAt this moment.
nKlein was digging a tunnel.
nWith another shovel, a black membrane appeared in front of him.
nKlein put away the shovel and patted the sand on his body.
nSystem notification: Long Sand Fish-1
nSystem notification: Transaction completed. Wind Rune 1
n“Eh, so fast?”
nKlein didn’t expect that someone would buy it less than three minutes after it was put up.
nIt was indeed a rare commodity!
nWhat surprised him even more was that the Long Sand Fish attracted buyers not because they could eat it, but more because the Long Sand Fish were alive…
nThe most important thing was that the Long Sand Fish did not have teeth.
nIt could be used to do many interesting things.
nIt could not be helped. Some people held back for too long and looked at everything with strange looks.
