Chapter 52
Chapter 52
Several rare species can be spotted at a glance from the surface.
She quickly called everyone in the channel to come and collect the fish, making sure not a single one was lost. Also, the pets for this event are really fragile; they've already started accumulating popularity online in the short time it's been.
We need to increase manpower and pack it up as soon as possible.
Building the pavilion requires a deposit of 90 million gold coins as operating capital, which requires a deposit of 100,000 interstellar coins at once.
There are not many slots available for building pavilions yet, so the first batch of player pavilions to be built are all either big spenders who have already spent a lot of money or super hardcore players who grind excessively.
There weren't many players joining, and the leader was very strict in vetting members. Sister Xunmei's group only had a maximum of eight hundred members. Since eight hundred people couldn't all join at once, she spent money to clear out the entire server.
She's got this whole area under her belt!
The announcement was posted in the chat channel, which caused some dissatisfaction among players.
But when it comes to getting paid, they act very efficiently. Anyway, you can't catch any fish over there, and you might even get ganged up on.
Why not just take the money and leave? There are plenty of other options in other districts.
Sister Xunmei looked at a group of players in the distance and asked, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Wang Nianjun, who had just come from the crowd, took out a nanmu chair from Xiaoyiju and placed it on the platform, sitting down calmly.
With eight hundred brothers standing behind him, he certainly had the air of a big boss.
"Hey, my brothers and I aren't short of money, why should we leave?"
Sister Xunmei: "You took the money!"
Wang Nianzong's younger cousin said, "If you have money, why not take it? Wouldn't it be stupid not to?"
These words angered her, and Sister Xunmei laughed, "A one-on-one fight?"
Members of the Overlord Pavilion arrived one after another, standing on the ship and warily watching the group of people opposite them.
They were roughly equal in number and evenly matched, so neither dared to make the first move.
Wang Nianjun said, "Alright, let us get our revenge first. Su Wanyi, I'll give you face. Kill the person who killed my cousin, and I'll fight you one-on-one."
Sister Xunmei laughed in exasperation, "What kind of person would I be if I handed over my own members! Since we can't fight one-on-one, let's have a group fight! Split into two teams, those who aren't good at fighting will be responsible for catching fish, and the items they get will be split equally. As for the points, let's all help even them out. The rest of you, let's start fighting!"
"Yes, Master!"
Wang Nianzong quickly divided the team, with more than half going to snatch fish and the other half fighting.
His cabinet members were all recruited from combat games; each one possessed top-notch combat skills and was fully capable of defeating a larger force with a smaller one.
The main purpose was to catch fish; everything else was just an excuse.
Although there were more ladies on Sister Xunmei's side, they were all at her level of combat prowess and she wasn't intimidated at all.
The two sides met up and started punching and kicking each other. Since they had no weapons, they engaged in hand-to-hand combat, mainly a head-pulling battle.
Water sports clothes, hair accessories, and headdresses were flying everywhere, creating a chaotic scene.
A tourist player broadcast the scene live, and Deng Yijun saw fish caught in large nets in the water, thrashing about in the ripples, their scales shimmering.
Two bitter rivals, who were tearing each other apart, exchanged a subtle glance and then called their assistant over.
The female celebrities in the "Weaving Goddess" circle are mortal enemies, each striving to surpass their rival and prove that they have the most collections, are the richest, and the most extravagant!
The circles of flaunting wealth are the same on every planet.
"Let's go rob someone."
The assistant was puzzled. "Are you alone? Or are you bringing all your brothers?"
Deng Yijun said with a smile, "I can take on a thousand men by myself. If I bring my teammates, at most four hundred people can squeeze into that area. Four hundred against sixteen thousand, am I stupid?"
Assistant: "Does the boss want it?"
"Quickly contact a casual player in that region and invite me to join their team."
"Ok."
Deng Yijun put all eighty of her flower fairies into her backpack, just in case.
There are also more than 100 giant eagles, 20 cormorants, and 300 pelicans as the main force.
He hugged a pelican with a smug look on his face, saying, "Everyone thinks you're ugly, but I dote on you. You'd better live up to my expectations."
After saying that, he gave me a kiss, and the Pelicans struggled but couldn't break free.
Soon, the assistant resolved the negotiation issues, and the streamer added Deng Yijun to the team.
Deng Yijun teleported to that area and launched a sudden attack!
First, they released over a hundred giant eagles to distract the crowd, constantly flying over their heads and scratching at them to draw their attention.
Twenty cormorants went down and pulled open the net, forcing the fish to the surface. At the same time, they dragged the net along, creating some distance between themselves and the players guarding it.
The pelican swoops down and scoops up three to five birds in one gulp. Smaller pelicans can hold around six, while larger ones can only hold a maximum of three.
Deng Yijun had warned him beforehand to be careful and not to kill anyone.
Nearly four thousand goldfish were caught in four nets, and the pelicans swept them all up in three waves.
After the birds were wiped out, they quickly returned, and Deng Yijun immediately used the teleportation function to retreat.
The whole process took three minutes, leaving viewers watching the live stream stunned.
"My mech marshal, back when you repelled the Zerg, was this the same level of command you had when you led the fleet?"
"I would call it a divine move."
"Hahaha, look at that group of people fighting, they didn't even notice their teammates who were far away, it's hilarious."
The two groups fighting were completely focused on their own actions, while the group responsible for catching fish chased after the cormorants. The sudden accident made both sides forget to call out to their teammates.
The giant eagle on its head is really annoying!
"Which idiot released this bird? If you're going to fight, just fight. Calling for outside help is going too far!"
"Whose bird is this? Put it away!!!"
Amidst the commotion, the two sides gradually moved away. Those who noticed their teammates disengaging during the fight instinctively followed suit. By the time everyone realized what was happening, all four nets were empty, and the other side had even snatched the nets...
The scene was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and it was almost comical.
Deng Yijun returned home with a bountiful harvest, arranging for her assistant to buy many fish tanks and carefully placing the fish inside. Many died along the way, and quite a few were even eaten by birds, causing her considerable distress.
The assistant was stunned by the boss's bizarre actions!
"Boss, you'll have no friends if you keep doing this."
Deng Yijun: "Is it important for a friend to have fish?"
Interstellar people don't like socializing, unless they're showing off their wealth.
"Forehead......"
They were speechless.
Among the fish caught this time, there was even a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate. As soon as it was released, the scene resounded with a thunderous roar. A majestic Dragon Gate appeared, and a black, gilded goldfish instantly grew larger, flew out, was burned by black flames, and transformed into a black dragon over the Dragon Gate. The enormous Dragon Gate spanned the entire sky, a truly magnificent sight.
The moment the massive black dragon head, with its jade-like texture, turned around, the assistant and Deng Yijun felt an urge to kneel down.
After the dragon disappeared, the burning scales fell off and turned into a black lucky bag.
Deng Yijun picked it up, but didn't turn it on immediately. Instead, she asked her assistant, "Was the footage recorded?"
"It's been recorded."
Deng Yijun smiled; he was definitely the winner of this chaotic battle.
The "Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate" mechanic has appeared twice so far. The player who triggered it last time didn't post it, probably because they didn't have time to record it. So, he's the first person to trigger and record it!
After posting the video to the chat channel, he continued to deal with the more than four thousand fish in front of him, and bought dozens of super large fish tanks, arranging them around the garden because there was enough space here.
The fish tank is about this tall, so a stool is needed when putting the fish in. The stool is a plum blossom tree stump that was created using a cash withdrawal charm; the thickest one in the garden was chosen. It's big enough for one person to stand on, but it's a bit heavy.
As his assistant and a helper carried the load, he couldn't help but complain, "Boss, you should at least pay us double for this kind of work!"
Deng Yijun: "I'm so happy today, I'm giving you triple pay."
Overjoyed, the assistant seized the opportunity to demand, "Give me a giant eagle."
Deng Yijun looked down at him and asked, "What did you say?"
The assistant loudly repeated, "Such strenuous work deserves a reward of an eagle."
Deng Yijun: "I'll give you a whack, hurry up and move on to the next one."
You really dare to ask, giant eagle?
Birds are now rare pets, and players who want to make money are collecting them, which are increasing in value.
Players went wild in the chat channel. They had imagined the spectacular sight of a carp leaping over the dragon gate, but they never expected it to be this spectacular.
"Are you kidding me? It's comparable to Star Wars."
"My mecha Grand Marshal, I can feel the power of the oncoming attack even from the video. How magnificent it must be when we face it head-on."
"The player looks so small in this effect, just like the phoenix's appearance in the past."
"Hey? Now that you mention it, I realize the dragon and phoenix designs look similar."
"Science Popularization Building: Dragon and Phoenix are mythical beasts on par with those of our home planet."
"Wow~ How much historical research did the designer absorb? That's amazing."
"I don't know. We've only figured out a part of the graphic information so far. The specifics are probably just what the designer imagined."
"Wow, that's amazing! This is probably what our future fantasies about the dragon and phoenix ceiling will look like."
"No, that's not it. Lin Shuying thinks it this way, but I think it's something else entirely. Nobody has seen the real thing, so who says her idea is the most accurate?"
"At least I think this one in Qingfengyi fits my thoughts perfectly."
Players were arguing in the channel, and the members of Bajun Pavilion and Hengxing Tianxia Pavilion were filled with hatred after seeing the videos and pictures.
Sister Xunmei and Wang Nianzong sent private messages to Deng Yijun, using vulgar language that transcended interstellar tradition.
Deng Yijun discovered another rare goldfish: the Flying Rainbow Dragon.
As the name suggests, it really can fly!
"Ahhhh, my fish, it really can fly!"
This fish has a very beautiful tail, like flowing silk, soft, large, and graceful. The edge is edged with a brownish-gold border, like a drawn line. The inside of the tail is white and shimmers in the light.
The fins are also large and are a misty white color.
It has black eyes and a bright red stripe running down its back, which is pierced by the white dorsal fin, making it look just like an eye.
When the fish flies, it blows bubbles around it, and its lips are actually heart-shaped.
Even when she pouts, it's a sign of love; who could resist that?!
It floats and drifts in the air, and even spins around in circles!
"Song Huaiju, I'm falling in love with it!"
Even her assistant's eyes sparkled; she was so beautiful.
It wasn't until the boss shouted that I realized it was his fish, not his!
Sure enough, in the end, all that licking led to nothing...
Only others took away the plump, white baby with the cinnabar mole that I raised.
