Chapter 142 Sea Dragon
Chapter 142 Sea Dragon
After capturing Lanternfish, which evolved from Lanternfish, Lu An and his friends finally had a big fish that they could use to compete for a ranking.
However, the rules of the competition are that three fish will be used as the score, so if Gangjie wants to win, he needs to catch at least two big fish that are about the same size as the Lighthouse Monster.
However, encountering the Lighthouse seemed to have used up all their good luck.
Every fishing spot they went to was already crowded with several fishing boats. Even if they spotted a few big goldfish, they were usually already caught by someone else.
They even encountered Lao Ba and others who were searching for a new fishing spot while they were fishing.
Old Eight proudly showed off his achievements to Gang Jie:
"Hey, Gangjie, how's your fishing going? Still coming home empty-handed as usual?"
"We came prepared this time, and we caught a lot of big fish!"
Lao Ba also showed Gang Jie the live water tank on his fishing boat.
In the live water tank, there are at least three carp kings that are twice the size of their ordinary counterparts, and even a goldfish king that is swimming slowly!
The eighth brother was beaming with pride:
"See this King Goldfish? My teammate fought it for a full ten minutes before finally taking it down. It weighs a whopping 43 kilograms!"
"With this big guy around, we're guaranteed to get first place in this competition!"
Seeing the smug Lao Ba, Gang Jie, also an "air force player," gritted his teeth in hatred.
Then his expression suddenly changed, as if he was extremely dismissive of Lao Ba's record:
"Really?"
"But I heard half a day ago that a guy named Luther had single-handedly captured a goldfish that weighed at least fifty kilograms."
"Compared to his fifty-kilogram goldfish king, your goldfish king seems a bit insignificant, doesn't it?"
Upon hearing Gangjie's words, Lao Ba's face turned very gloomy:
Is this really true?
Gangjie was even happier to see Lao Ba suffer a setback than if he had won himself, and said smugly:
"That's not all. My buddy Lu An, just three hours ago, tamed a 30-kilogram electric lamp monster."
"Oh no, that's not right! The 'Lightbulb Monster' only weighs thirty kilograms, which is far less than your forty-three-kilogram Goldfish King. What should I do? I'm so anxious!"
Looking at Gangjie's "nervous" face, Lao Ba was itching with hatred.
If fishing competitions were judged solely on weight, then his King Goldfish would undoubtedly be the winner.
However, considering the rarity of the 'lightbulb' and the fact that this group generally only weighs half as much as the 'goldfish king'.
The 30-kilogram electric light monster is comparable to, or even surpasses, the 42-kilogram goldfish king he caught.
This made Lao Ba, who was originally confident of victory, panic even more.
In his original thought, encountering this king of goldfish in a lake like Yuanshan Lake was already an incredible stroke of luck.
It suddenly crashed into the fishing boat while Lao Ba and the others were fishing, and it showed no intention of escaping.
This was a stroke of good fortune, and Lao Ba, an air force veteran, was naturally unwilling to miss it. He immediately tried his best to work with his teammates to seize this unexpected joy.
As for why the Goldfish King would ram his fishing boat, he hadn't even considered that.
Lake Farmountain has few ferocious fish Pokémon, and it's not surprising that this environment without natural predators has produced some mindless Goldeens.
The other anglers he encountered mostly caught king carp and some small fish.
He thought that with this goldfish king, he was qualified to compete for the championship.
But now, after hearing what Gangjie said, he might not even be able to stand on the podium?
No, absolutely not!
Old Eight said fiercely:
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Are you trying to fool me with some kind of charade?"
"The Lantern Monster is known as the Star of the Deep Sea. Which wild Lantern Monster wasn't found in the extremely deep sea?"
"How could you possibly encounter a wild electric light monster in Far Mountain Lake?"
"I don't believe you unless you show me the lighthouse monster you caught!"
Faced with Lao Ba's provocation, Gang Jie simply stuck out his tongue:
"I'm too lazy to talk to you anymore, Pipi An, Pipi Well, let's go."
Having said that, Gangjie turned around with a flourish, leaving Lao Ba and his crew behind.
Seeing the smug look on Jie's face after he had just confronted Lao Ba, Lu An couldn't help but speak up and tease him:
"Gangsuke, although our Lightbulb Monster can indeed rival their Goldfish King, we don't have two other fish that are any worth mentioning."
"If we're still behind them when it comes to the selection, you might be ridiculed to no end."
After being pointed at by Lu An, Gang Jie immediately felt as if he had lost his parents:
"I know that, but seeing Lao Ba's smug look, I couldn't help but mock him back."
Imai smiled and patted Kosuke on the shoulder:
"Don't be sad, there's still an hour left. Maybe we can turn things around in this hour?"
Moved, Kousuke hugged Imai tightly.
"Brotherhood is in the heart!"
"No, I'm a man."
Watching his two roommates fooling around on the fishing boat, Lu An was amused but also pondered what to do.
With only an hour left in the game, and including the return trip, they had almost only half an hour left.
Fishing, however, is an activity that requires a lot of patience and luck.
It's simply impossible to catch two big fish in half an hour.
Is there really no hope of turning things around?
Just as Lu An was pondering this, he suddenly noticed that the fishing rod he had casually placed on the boat trembled.
With his keen eyesight, he knew perfectly well that this couldn't be a hallucination.
A fish has taken the bait!
Lu An reacted quickly and grabbed the fishing rod in his hand.
Even if there's only half an hour left, we must hold onto our hopes of winning.
With this thought in mind, Lu An suddenly pulled the fishing rod upwards!
He barely felt the sensation of lifting heavy objects!
Moreover, the prey clearly did not escape.
There is only one possibility: after being hooked, the prey not only did not escape, but also prepared to fight back!
As Lu An raised his fishing rod, a blue Pokémon leaped out of the lake and jumped straight onto Lu An's fishing boat.
Lu An and the others took a closer look and were immediately shocked:
"Sea Serpent Dragon!"
"Beep!"
Standing inside the fishing boat with Lu An and the others was a sea serpent dragon that resembled a seahorse.
The average weight of a sea dinosaur is 25 kilograms, and they mostly live among marine corals.
Lu An never expected that his casual lifting would actually catch a sea dinosaur.
You should know that this Pokémon is just as rare as Lantern!
Considering that it will evolve into Kingdra with the Dragon attribute and become a powerful fighter for Team Rain, its rarity is even higher than that of Lantern.
After being caught, the Pokémon did not flee. Instead, it roared at Lu An and his companions and then pounced on Lu An with lightning speed, its eyes filled with ferocity.
Meanwhile, Lu An's giant swamp monster was still several meters away in the lake, beyond its reach!
"Beep!"
