It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 529 One Man and One Fish

Huangfu Miaomiao was very lucky; she found half a bucket of purified water in a house not far from the sea. But her joy was short-lived, as she soon heard the roar of a monster outside.

She quickly grabbed the bucket and rushed to the door, only to find that Fang Ye had turned into a monster again!

The fish monster roared and moved its massive body, clearly having lost its mind again, moving towards the nearest water source purely on instinct.

"Oh no!" Huangfu Miaomiao slapped her forehead. "I forgot that Gleipnir's Threads only work when you're holding it!"

If the item leaves the user, the target's immobilization status will only last for 30 seconds.

Huangfu Miaomiao ran towards the fish monster carrying a bucket, raising her hand and shouting, "Silence! Silence!—"

She gradually mastered the Meteor deck, and when she played the white totem mark, the fish monster immediately quieted down.

Huangfu Miaomiao ran over quickly, picked up the rope, and held it firmly in her hand!

She breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the bucket in her other hand, fed some water into the fish monster's mouth, and then poured it on the fish monster's body.

The half-full bucket of water was quickly emptied.

Huangfu Miaomiao was in a dilemma. The fish monster had a very strong need for water, and she didn't know if this water would be enough to sustain it until it reached the sea. Did she have to find water for it along the way?
She originally wanted to find a helper, but now it feels more like she's found a burden.

"Sigh!" Huangfu Miaomiao sighed heavily, shook the empty bucket in her hand, and said to the fish monster, "We are now in the same boat. I hope our journey will be smooth."

The fish monster cried out, sometimes calling out to Feng Ling, sometimes to the white cat, and sometimes it called out to no one but kept calling for help.

But who can save it?
Huangfu Miaomiao led it forward, sighing, "Stop crying, save some water."

The sky was beginning to lighten, and the sun would soon rise.

This was not good news for Huangfu Miaomiao, because the high daytime temperature would exacerbate the evaporation of moisture, so she had better get to the beach before sunrise.

After a period of confusion, the fish monster regained some clarity. It stopped crying and became unusually silent.

A man and a fish, slowly moving forward.

Huangfu Miaomiao led the fish monster up a cement slope. She pointed to the pointed roofs peeking out from among the trees in the distance and said, "There's a house up ahead. I'll go in to get some water. You wait for me outside."

Remembering how to use the rare item, she turned to the fish monster and urged, "You must hold on, and don't go crazy again. I'll be out as soon as possible."

The fish monster uttered a single word hoarsely from its throat: "...Okay."

Huangfu Miaomiao was a little worried, but she didn't have any good ideas. The fish monster needed water, and she needed the fish monster, so it was practically the same as her needing water.

She led the fish monster to the front of the house and found it to be an abandoned holiday villa.

The tap water supply in the area had been cut off long ago, and if the villa had been uninhabited for a long time, it probably didn't have any drinking water stored. But Huangfu Miaomiao still decided to go in and look for it.

Carrying the bucket, she climbed over the courtyard wall, silently counting down the seconds in her mind. She quickly ran to the eaves, first peering through the glass window to observe the situation inside. Not seeing any water, she decisively went around to find the kitchen.

Before she could find the kitchen, she discovered the swimming pool in the backyard.

Huangfu Miaomiao was overjoyed!

Although the swimming pool was dirty and smelly due to long-term neglect, with nutrient-rich algae and bubbles floating on the surface, and even unknown insects swimming in it, she believed the fish monster wouldn't mind.

She dipped the bucket into the pool and poured water into it with a gurgling sound.

The bucket was only half full when a noise suddenly came from outside!
Huangfu Miaomiao was startled, worried that the fish monster would go out of control again, and hurriedly picked up the bucket and ran outside.

At this moment, a sharp female voice shouted, "Get away from it! The water that this monster spews is poisonous!" Then a male voice said, "The coordinates given by the messenger are in this vicinity. Hurry up and search. The bounty points are so high, we must not let other players steal it."

Huangfu Miaomiao's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly squatted down in fright—not only was the swimming pool neglected in the backyard, but the weeds were also left unattended, growing wildly, dense and tall.

But hiding here isn't safe; those players will find the backyard sooner or later!

"Don't worry, it's impossible for someone else to snatch it!" another unfamiliar voice laughed. "We're the closest team to here; it would take other teams at least an hour to get here."

"The Star Society is really generous. The bounty for a traitor is as high as 3000 points, which is comparable to the reward for killing a lord boss."

Huangfu Miaomiao felt a chill in her heart, not because of the high reward, but because she had heard the voices of at least four people.

Once one of these four people has a speed-type card, it will be very difficult for her to escape!

The woman with a shrill voice reminded her teammates, "Don't forget, you only get 3000 points if you capture them alive, but if they die, you only get 500... Ah!!!"

The woman suddenly screamed.

"Watch out for the fish monster!!!"

"Kill it! This corrupted entity is a leader-level being; killing it will earn us around a thousand points!"

The front yard of the villa was in chaos, with sounds of fierce fighting and shouting mixed together.

Judging from the noise, the four players won't be coming to the backyard anytime soon.

Huangfu Miaomiao gritted her teeth, picked up the bucket, and ran away!
The assassin card granted her agility, allowing her to easily scale the courtyard wall. However, when her toes touched the ground, a lot of water spilled from the bucket, causing her to pause in surprise.

—This water was prepared for the fish monster. Since we're trying to escape now, keeping the buckets will only get in the way, so we might as well throw them away.

She was about to throw it away.

The roar of the fish monster could be heard.

Huangfu Miaomiao's heart tightened.

She didn't understand why she hesitated. Her purpose in approaching the fish monster was to share the firepower when danger arose, and now was the perfect opportunity for her to escape, so what was there to hesitate about?
But the next second, the image of the fish monster with teary eyes appeared in her mind.

The fish monster is a man's second form, and the second form always reveals some temperament and some of the most authentic things in the subconscious.

But the fish monster kept crying and kept asking why Feng Ling wouldn't save him.

Feng Ling couldn't save him. Feng Ling didn't even know this person existed, but Huangfu Miaomiao did, and at this moment, she was not far from the fish monster.

Is there no way to save her either?

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Huangfu Miaomiao stomped her feet angrily, then picked up the bucket with one hand and grabbed the railing of the courtyard wall with the other, and jumped back into the backyard.

"Kill it now! It can't spew out any more black liquid, now's the time!"

Four players are ganging up on the fish monster.

Huangfu Miaomiao pulled out her last flashbang and threw it at them! Then she quickly closed her eyes and covered her ears!
I felt a flash of intense white light through my eyelids, followed by a loud noise!
Caught off guard, all four players were temporarily blinded.

Huangfu Miaomiao picked up the bucket and ran to the blind and deaf fish monster, grabbing the rope and saying, "Come with me! Quickly!—"
