A comic book journey to see the Eye of Antiquity

Actually, it was already foreseeable that he didn't need Sani's touch; in other words, all he wanted was Zebula's voice.

The tactile sensations of Sani have both advantages and disadvantages, which I won't go into detail about. Just know that Yang Lei doesn't intend to replicate them.

But Zebula's voice was different, which he found very interesting, especially his hearing.

Don't think that hearing is just about being able to hear some sounds clearly. Zebula, for example, can use his hearing to replace his sight. Once you enter his domain, you can 'hear' distant scenes without seeing them.

In other words, for Zebula, unless there is absolutely no sound or someone is far enough away from him, it is unlikely that anyone can keep a secret from him.

This is a bug.

What Yang Lei dislikes most is bugs and overpowered abilities.

. . . . . .

Enough with the small talk, let's get back to the main topic.

After A-Lu and Coco finally managed to kill the first demonic serpent they encountered after a great deal of effort, Yang Lei stepped in and easily put the demonic serpent into his personal space as well.

A-Lu and Xiao-Song were already used to his methods, and although Coco was curious, she wasn't one to gossip, which saved him some trouble.

After that, the four of them continued on their way to the spawning grounds of pufferfish and whales.

They hadn't gone far when they ran into Jiro on the road. The old man looked completely different from when they saw him on the gourmet train. He had transformed from a skinny little old man into a burly giant, which was quite frightening.

Not only that, but he also had a bucket of pufferfish slung across his shoulder. Although it was still unknown whether the pufferfish had their venom sacs removed, all four of them could tell that the pufferfish had indeed been acupunctured.

Few people know that not only is the venom sac of pufferfish whales extremely troublesome to process, but they are also very difficult to catch. Once they sense even the slightest danger or hostility, they will poison themselves immediately; they are that fierce.

After a brief chat with Jiro, the four of them declined his offer to share the sake made from pufferfish fins, saying they would make it themselves later.

After saying goodbye to Jiro, the four of them traveled a short distance further and finally arrived at their destination.

(PS: The old book is nearing its end, and it's a bit difficult to write. I spent all day working on it and ended up deleting everything. I guess that book will have to stop updating today... I'll try to finish these three chapters before midnight. Sorry for the long wait, everyone. Chapter 1...)

0490 Capture of puffer whales

"It's so beautiful, the beach here is absolutely gorgeous."

After passing through an archway, Yang Lei and his three companions finally arrived at their destination. Looking up, they saw the beach shimmering with golden light, which was quite dazzling.

The cave beach is actually two parts; the maze they walked through earlier was just the cave, and this is the beach.

Here, the clear seawater seems to glow, the fine sand on the shore is dazzling like gold dust, and the surrounding cave walls also shimmer.

In short, even the four old men, including Yang Lei, were stunned by the beautiful scenery before them.

Of course, the shock they felt was only temporary; they hadn't forgotten their purpose for coming here.

"The next pufferfish and whale swarm is coming soon, let's get ready to catch them."

For example, Ah Lu was reminding the other three while taking off his own clothes until he was only wearing shorts.

They had encountered Jiro before, who returned with a full catch, so they knew that the pufferfish and whale tide had already begun. At this moment, they couldn't help but feel a little anxious, since no one knew when the tide started or when it would end.

Because of this mentality, Yang Lei and the others quickly took off their clothes and jumped into the water one after another, swimming a short distance ahead to wait.

Of the four people, apart from Komatsu, the other three could hold their breath underwater for quite a while.

Chapter 573

For example, Yang Lei, with his physical attributes constantly improving, can now hold his breath for one or two months in the water, even if he does nothing.

If he used other methods, he could easily live a normal life underwater.

In other words, the human body is simply not adapted to the environment of outer space; otherwise, it would be able to survive in outer space.

Of course, this is only for now. His body can still evolve, and I believe that one day he will be able to survive normally in outer space.

Although Alu and Keke couldn't hold their breath as long as Yang Lei, they could still easily hold it for ten or twenty minutes.

Only Xiaosong's breath-holding ability was too poor. Before they even found the pufferfish and whale school, he had already gone up and down several times to breathe. In the end, he consciously went ashore to wait.

"found it."

Just then, the three underwater finally spotted the school of pufferfish whales.

"Huh? Isn't that the size of a whale?"

A-Lu was startled by the school of pufferfish and whales, because the school of pufferfish and whales gathered together and formed a huge pufferfish and whale, which looked just like a real whale.

Of course, only he mistakenly thought it was a whale. In fact, both Yang Lei and Coco saw the truth immediately because their eyesight could see the subtle differences.

After Coco's explanation, and as the school of fish drew closer, Ah Lu finally understood.

“Ah Lu, the method of catching pufferfish whales requires special care. Let me demonstrate for you first.”

Coco greeted A-Chou and then moved closer, deliberately omitting Yang Lei from her words, because she no longer understood Yang Lei.

Don't ask me how they communicate underwater. That's how it's described in the original story. I've come up with several reasons, but they don't make sense. Besides, there's no Zebula's voice. Just watch and see...

At first, Alu didn't believe Coco's warning, but when he actually encountered one of the pufferfish whales, he was finally slapped in the face by reality.

The pufferfish whale that he had carefully and cautiously touched chose to bravely sacrifice itself the moment he touched it. What was I saying before? Yes, that's how fierce it was.

This time, A-Lü dared not act recklessly anymore. Don't forget that his rule of conduct is "no killing unless eaten." If he continued to cause trouble, he would be contradicting himself.

Meanwhile, Yang Lei quietly left their side. The seawater remained completely still, yet he had already swiftly moved from one end to the other of the pufferfish and whale school.

A-Lu and Coco's attention was completely focused on the pufferfish and whale school, so they didn't notice Yang Lei's actions, and naturally they couldn't discover that he was frantically harvesting pufferfish and whales on the other side.

Unlike Coco and Alu's cautiousness, Yang Lei seemed completely unconcerned about whether the pufferfish whale would become poisonous; in fact, he really didn't need to care.

His eyes had already activated his pupil technique, allowing him to easily see the location of the venom sacs of the pufferfish whales. Then, he quickly swung his hands out, slicing across the bodies of the pufferfish whales one by one, and quickly pulling out a small venom sac from each whale's body as he passed by.

That's right, he's currently removing the venom sac from a live pufferfish whale.

For Yang Lei, who possesses the power of space and time, this is not difficult.

Even the pufferfish and whales were unaware of what was happening and felt no pain whatsoever. Yang Lei removed their venom sacs without them noticing.

· ·····Requesting flowers···· ········

Not only that, after the venom sacs were removed, Yang Lei naturally showed no mercy. One pufferfish after another died and were then collected into his personal space.

On his end alone, the number of pufferfish and whales decreased by one-fifth in just ten minutes.

Yang Lei did a quick check and found that he had already caught more than 10,000 pufferfish whales.

In fact, pufferfish are only about the size of an adult's palm, while a normal whale is at least six meters long. You can imagine how large this group of pufferfish must be.

This group of pufferfish and whales quickly dispersed, and then another group of fish appeared.

With no fish obstructing their view, A-Lu and Coco finally saw Yang Lei on the other side. Although they knew he was also catching pufferfish whales, they had no idea how terrifying his catch would be.

. ...... ...

One wave after another, and then another.

In just one hour, Yang Lei and his team were greeted by six groups of pufferfish and whales.

Ah Lu and Coco had no idea, but Yang Lei only knew that he had gained so much today.

Because he caught more than 10,000 fish in the first wave, he deliberately kept the number to around 10,000 for the next five waves. A simple calculation showed that he had caught more than 60,000 pufferfish whales.

If outsiders were to know about his harvest, especially since the venom sacs of the pufferfish he caught had been removed, it would likely cause quite a stir.

After all, in the current storyline, pufferfish is a rare and valuable ingredient.

Haven't you heard that among known chefs, only ten people can process the venom sac of a pufferfish whale? That tells you how valuable Yang Lei's venom sac is.

However, Yang Lei will definitely not sell the pufferfish he has, unless he gets tired of eating them himself.

"That's right."

Just as the sixth wave of pufferfish and whales was about to leave, Yang Lei had an idea and quickly caught dozens more pufferfish and whales.

Please don't misunderstand, he didn't intend to use these dozens of pufferfish to fool the A-Liaos, but rather to use them to teach Komatsu and the others how to process venom sacs.

After all, we've worked together before, and this isn't some amazing, secret technology that can't be shared. If we can help, we should.

He wasn't expecting any reward in the future; he didn't care about that. He was just doing it on a whim.

0491 Ready to eat pufferfish and whale

"Whoosh!"

Amidst the splashing water, Yang Lei emerged from the water and saw that A-Lu and Coco had already reached the shore, and Xiao Song, needless to say, had not persisted underwater from the very beginning.

In other words, he was the last one to come out.

Chapter 574

"How, how?"

The three people on the shore looked at Yang Lei together. At the same time, ten pufferfish whales were spread out at their feet, all of which had been successfully acupunctured.

Nonsense, if they hadn't been acupunctured, they would have bravely sacrificed themselves long ago. They would rather 'take poison and kill themselves' than let others eat them. That's how fierce they are.

"A bumper harvest."

When asked by the three men, Yang Lei answered with only one adjective: "a bumper harvest."

It was indeed a bumper harvest, with over 60,000 pufferfish whales caught. If this isn't a bumper harvest, then nothing can be called a bumper harvest.

However, instead of taking out the pufferfish he had successfully removed its venom sacs from, Yang Lei brought dozens of pufferfish that he had put in a small net bag and walked ashore.

"Wow, so many!"

The three people on the shore exclaimed in surprise, thinking that this was all Yang Lei had gained.

Actually, these few dozen are already quite astonishing. Think about it, even if A-Lu and Coco, the two Heavenly Kings, joined forces, they could only capture ten in the end.

He caught dozens all by himself; the difference between them was simply too great.

"right."

Yang Lei gave a casual reply, but didn't mention that he still had more than 60,000 pufferfish whales with their venom sacs removed. He thought he should teach Xiaosong how to remove the venom sacs before eating them.

As Yang Lei brought dozens of pufferfish ashore, the three men on the shore could no longer wait and were about to take action, urging Coco to quickly process the pufferfish's venom sacs.

They had been waiting for Yang Lei on purpose, since they were traveling together and it wouldn't be right not to wait for him.

Another point is that the venom sac of the pufferfish whale is really difficult to process, otherwise it wouldn't be so precious.

Therefore, they were also afraid of being affected by the force of Yang Lei's splashing water.

Faced with A-Lu and Xiao-Song's urging, Coco didn't rush to start. Instead, she politely asked Yang Lei, "Yang Lei, would you like to try it first?"

"No."

Yang Lei shook his head, casually tossed the dozens of pufferfish and whales from the net into the middle of the four of them, leaned back casually on the ground, and said to Coco, "You guys do it, don't have any psychological burden, and it would be best if you could take this opportunity to master this technique."

"As for the food, don't worry, I've already made arrangements. Even if none of them succeed, I will still treat you to a pufferfish and whale feast."

Yang Lei's words stunned the three of them.

There are three meanings to this statement. The surface meaning, of course, is to give Komatsu and Coco a chance to practice with these pufferfish whales.

Beneath the surface, there are two other meanings. The first is the second half of his sentence, which any intelligent person can understand: he still has a pufferfish whale in his hand, and it has already had its venom sac processed.

Then, we can infer another meaning from the second half of the sentence: Yang Lei has the technology to easily remove the venom sac of pufferfish whales, otherwise he would not be so confident.

After saying those two sentences, Yang Lei stopped talking. No matter how much A Lu pleaded and begged to start eating, and even asked for a small piece of fish fin to soak in alcohol, he pretended not to hear and watched silently as Xiao Song and Ke Ke finally started fighting.

Fortunately, Yang Lei brought up dozens of pufferfish whales. After wasting more than thirty pufferfish whales, Xiao Song and Ke Ke finally succeeded once each after more than an hour.

People always say that everything is difficult at the beginning, and facts have proven that this saying can really stand the test of time.

For example, in Xiaosong and Coco's case, after their first successful case, their subsequent attempts became much smoother, and their success rate increased significantly.

Finally, after all the dozens of pufferfish whales had been processed, a total of eight pufferfish whales had their venom sacs successfully removed, which far exceeded the expectations of the four people present.

Even Yang Lei was surprised that the two of them could master the technique so quickly. He couldn't help but secretly guess that if he caught a hundred more, the two of them could probably increase their success rate even more.

However, this is not bad either. At least they are familiar with the technology and the venom sac of the pufferfish whale, which is enough.

just.

"Why do pufferfish turn golden after you remove their venom sacs?"

Yang Lei pointed to the eight golden pufferfish whales that were placed aside, looking quite puzzled.

He hadn't asked before, afraid of distracting the two of them, but he brought it up now.

It turns out that none of the more than 60,000 pufferfish whales he processed and collected underwater turned golden. They remained exactly the same as they were before, without any change.

He originally thought that pufferfish whales were like this, but he didn't expect that there would be changes.
