Chapter 403 - 197: Legendary Creature Appears, King Salmon!_2
Cao Xing patiently waited.
The next moment, a familiar giant force surged!
Cao Xing leaned forward.
Just as he was about to be dragged away, Assam and Blom had already rushed over.
The three of them grabbed the fishing rod together and once again began to wrestle with the formidable creature underwater!
Splash! Splash-splash…
The water kept surging.
One could imagine that there was definitely another big one down there!
Next to them, Liu Muxue held her shield, nervously watching the situation underwater.
The creature struggled for about ten minutes before its strength gradually waned.
Then, the three of them gave a strong pull!
A golden shimmering figure appeared once again!
As soon as he saw this figure, Cao Xing laughed, “Hahaha! Another Golden Salmon!”
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on that figure hanging in mid-air, more than a meter long, with a golden body shining like a piece of art.
Thump!
The second Golden Salmon was once again slammed onto the ice, starting to flop around continuously.
Cao Xing glanced at its attributes.
[Golden Salmon (Gold): Magic Creature]
[Level: 21]
[Weight: 10.5 kilograms]
[Effect: Consuming for the first time can increase Life Value cap by 2000 points, Constitution by 20 points, and Population Cap by 10.]
(Note: Extremely precious Golden Salmon, with incredibly tender meat, possessing very strong Life Force, can be decomposed into 10 pieces of Golden Salmon Meat.)
…
“Not bad, not bad, almost the same weight as the last Golden Salmon!”
“This level of Fish Meat is a rare treasure, if it appears in the trading market, it would absolutely cause a frenzy among the survivors!”
After all, the boost of over two thousand points of Life Value was too tempting.
Especially at this stage, most survivors had just recently broken through the Second Order.
This could almost double their Blood Volume!
Chino standing by admired, “Tsk-tsk, truly remarkable!”
“Lord Cao Xing, you are not only kind-hearted, but you also have quite the luck.”
“Catching one Golden Salmon was already beyond imagination, but today you managed to catch two!”
“Even when I roamed the continent in my youth, I never encountered such a miraculous thing.”
Cao Xing laughed as well.
Then, under Chino’s astonished gaze.
Cao Xing directly picked up the more than a meter-long Golden Salmon and placed it at Chino’s feet.
Chino exclaimed, “Lord Cao Xing, what are you…”
Cao Xing said, “Sir Chino, isn’t your wife bedridden with illness?”
“The life force in this Golden Salmon’s meat is many times that of a Silver Salmon, I think it should help with your wife’s illness.”
“When she gets better, take her to the city for further treatment as soon as possible.”
“I hope she recovers soon.”
After Cao Xing finished speaking, Chino stood frozen.
He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say at the moment.
With his resolute character, this old man would never accept someone’s charity for no reason.
He never thought of taking the Golden Salmon from Cao Xing’s hands.
However, as Cao Xing mentioned, he did have a seriously ill wife.
After a moment, Chino sighed, “Lord Cao Xing, I’m an eccentric person with few friends.”
“But from today on, you are my friend, Chino Dutra.”
[Due to your generous gift, Chino Dutra’s Goodwill has increased, Current Goodwill: Intimate]
…
Cao Xing felt a sense of joy in his heart.
With intimate Goodwill, this Chino would see him as one of his own.
Just like Duke Baladin in the Underground Palace, he would actively worry about his safety.
Although he had given up a Golden Salmon of high value,
it was clear that befriending a person of this level was worth it.
Cao Xing smiled, “You’re too kind.”
“You need this salmon more than I do.”
Chino hefted the Golden Salmon onto his shoulder and then said, “Lord Cao Xing, although I’ve accepted your gift, I never take things without giving in return.”
“This fishing rod seems very suitable for you, consider it a gift from me.”
Hearing this, Cao Xing was taken aback.
He quickly said, “Sir Chino, this is an epic-level fishing rod, it’s too precious, I can’t accept it!”
But Chino waved his hand, “Epic-level fishing rods are indeed valuable, but they are of no use to me.”
“The purpose of bringing this fishing rod was to catch a few Silver or Golden Salmon.”
“Now that I’ve achieved my goal, I will be taking my wife away from Gale Snow Plain, and I will rarely go fishing in the future.”
Chino said solemnly, “Take it, Lord Cao Xing, this rod can only fulfill its purpose in your hands.”
“Let it be you who inherits the name of my friend, the Mad King!”
After hearing Chino’s explanation, Cao Xing was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, “Thank you, Sir Chino!”
This gift was too valuable, its worth far exceeded that of the Golden Salmon by countless times.
Cao Xing never expected Chino to give such a precious fishing rod to him.
Sure enough, as he had anticipated,
maintaining a good relationship with these powerful natives would have significant benefits!
However, not all powerful natives were worth building a good relationship with.
It depended on the personality and character of the other party.
After all, they were not NPCs in the game, but living human beings.
If it were those crazy Cultists from the Bright Church, it would be best to stay away.
At this moment, Chino asked, “Lord Cao Xing, I see that you’ve had great success this time, do you plan to continue fishing?”
