Chapter 90 - The Water Level Is Rising
n
n
nA moment later, the fishing rod moved, and Mcgee suddenly pulled it back.
nThere was a small fish with sharp teeth hanging on it.
nSnow Spirit Fish
nLevel: 2
nAttributes: Water
nSkills: Bite, impact
nHidden attributes: None
nTalent: Bronze
nBite: Uses sharp teeth to bite the enemy's body, which can cause the enemy to bleed to death.
nImpact: Uses its hard head to ram into the enemy's body.
nStatus: Angry
nSpecial information: The meat is delicious and can be eaten as food.
nMcgee looked at the Snow Spirit Fish curiously. He did not expect that the ordinary small fish would not be caught.
nHowever, he had caught one. Moreover, the special information said that the meat was delicious and could be eaten as food.
nHow could he let it go?
nSince the first one was this so-called Snow Spirit Fish, there must be much small fish like this in the water.
nHe did not do anything this afternoon, so he would fish here.
nMcgee made up his mind. After putting the small fish on the fishing rod into the frame that he knitted with his own hands, he continued to put down the bait.
nIt had to be said that the Snow Spirit Fish had very good teeth. The moment it bit the bait, it had already swallowed a small piece of meat.
nHence, Mcgee had no choice but to tear off another piece of meat.
nHowever, compared to this, it was definitely a win-win situation.
nVery quickly, an afternoon passed, and Mcgee had caught a basket of Snow Spirit Fish.
nLooking at the basket of fish, Mcgee's mouth was about to split open from laughing.
n
"Decompose.
"
n
"Congratulations on obtaining Snow Spirit Fish x 106.
"
nMcgee did not expect that his harvest for the whole afternoon would be so good.
nJust as he picked up the wicker basket and was about to go home, he suddenly realized.
nThe water level seemed to have risen a little...
nTherefore, Mcgee suddenly turned his head back and carefully observed it.
nBecause a Snow Spirit Fish in the wicker basket kept jumping, so the traces of the wicker basket were very obvious on the soil.
nWhen he picked up the basket, he found that the water had already grown to half of the mark.
nIt had only been an afternoon.
nCould it be that the water had been rising earlier, but they had not noticed it at all?
nThinking of this, Mcgee's face became serious.
nIt seemed that now was not the time for him to prepare for a comfortable life.
nSometimes, if he lived too comfortably, he would forget about the crisis.
nFor example, if it was not for the fishing trip, he might not have noticed that the water level was rising.
n
"No, I have to speed up and increase my strength. At least I have to raise the level of the Water Wave Turtle to level-6 and above before I evolve it.
"
nAfter Mcgee figured it out, he brought the Little Spirit Fox back home.
nWith the addition of the two pirates, the work of Irene and Omori became much easier.
nMoreover, the yard was even cleaner.
nAs expected of the strength of numbers. Moreover, these two guys had just joined and were working very hard for food.
nMcgee was very satisfied with this. He also went back to the house and took a big iron pot.
nThen he lit a bonfire outside, fetched some water, and slightly cleaned the Snow Spirit Fish.
nHe immediately threw six into the pot.
nNot long after, the fragrance of the fish soup had spread out, and the Little Spirit Fox and the others were also attracted over.
nThe Greed Treasure Chest stared at the pot in front of him.
nMcgee's face also showed a trace of excitement, until he tasted it.
nOnly then did he understand what the system meant by delicious meat.
nThis was really very fresh!
nIt was much fresher than the seasonings he had put in before he transmigrated, and more importantly, this fish meat was very tender.
nIt almost melted in the mouth, and the texture was simply beyond description.
nAlong with the Little Spirit Fox and the others, each of them had a bowl of fish soup, and they directly divided up the entire iron pot of Snow Spirit Fish soup.
nThe two pirates were so touched that they were about to cry.
n
"I'm so touched, big brother. It's been a long time since I've eaten such delicious food.
"
n
"Of course. Recently, we even ate bear meat. How could it have the taste of fish soup? It's delicious.
"
n
"I have to say that the decision to join your team was really right. As long as we work, we can get food.
"
nThe one-eyed man, as the leader, also nodded crazily.
nPerhaps he also felt that this was the best decision he had made in his life.
nMcgee was not going to sell the fish that they had fished for an entire afternoon.
nThis little bit was not enough for them to eat by themselves. Let's wait until there were more in the future.
n
"From tomorrow onwards, after you two have finished the work in the house, go fishing. These are two fishing rods.
"
n
"Then, prepare some weapons for defense today.
"
nThe two pirates hurriedly nodded after hearing this.
n
"Irene, the two of you should continue with your original work.
"
nMcgee, on the other hand, was preparing to bring the Water Wave Turtle to level up.
nAfter all, to explore the waters, they needed the help of the Water Wave Turtle.
nAfter arranging everything, they had to return to their respective rooms to rest.
nBut Mcgee could not sleep in his bed. Because lying in his bed, he always recalled that the water had risen so high in an afternoon.
nThen it would not be long before the top of their mountain would be submerged.
nMost importantly, the system did not say how long the season was.
nIt could be a month, it could be two months, or it could be even longer.
nThese were all unknown factors that needed to be eliminated.
nHence, the distraught Mcgee went outside alone.
nIn the end, he found that the Water Turtle did not go to rest and was standing alone by the side of the house.
n
"Why, you can't sleep either?
"
nMcgee came to the Water Turtle's side.
nBut the Water Turtle did not answer.
n
"Are you still brooding over your master abandoning you?
"
nThis time, the Water Turtle finally nodded.
n
"Alright, actually, you don't have to mind so much. They're listening to my orders now, and you're listening to mine. Doesn't this mean that you're still listening to your master's orders?
"
n
"Moreover, I have the ability to make you stronger, and I'll need your help in the future.
"
n
"That's why I don't want there to be too much of a gap between us. At least... I feel that I've never mistreated any of my familiars.
"
nWhen the Water Turtle heard this, it turned to look at Mcgee.
nWhat Mcgee said was the truth. The WaterTturtle could sense the Chameleon's trust in Mcgee during the afternoon.
nEven the Steel Fairy and Greed Treasure Chest's favorability toward Mcgee had now reached over 60.
nIn other words, they would not just leave.
nWhy did it reach this level?
nIt must be because Mcgee was good to them. Otherwise, they would not have stayed there all this while.
n
