Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

"...Can I fish for a while?" asked the deer.

"Well, I'll investigate." She knew very well that she couldn't stop people who wanted to fish.

After all, it's quite interesting just watching from the side.

The deer stood cautiously by the lake, poking the ice with his sword to confirm whether it was strong enough...

Fortunately, Miss World Tree's aura was cold enough and there was no problem.

Reassured, she began to run on the ice. The slight slipping feeling under her feet made her feel like she was riding the wind.

"Don't you want to go fishing..." Yu Man couldn't help but shout.

"I'm just exploring the origins of ice ballet... Alas, Eel, you don't understand. It's not easy for us southerners to see snow... I'm very happy to be able to start my journey in Shimla Bakken."

"So are you going fishing or not?" Yu Man turned her head away, thinking that she would never go ice skating with them.

Seeing that the ice mage in the team did not come to play, the deer gave up and walked obediently to the fishing spot to prepare fishing equipment.

There were no small benches or tents, only a fishing rod given by the Novice Village and a bag of bait made from grains and insect corpses.

The deer took the sword and poked the ice, trying to make a hole.

But on the way, she couldn't help but look at Yu Man, who was just about to get busy, with a pleading look.

The latter sighed exaggeratedly and approached her with his staff.

Using local materials, Yu Man melted a hole in the ice, and the ice was shaped into a chair, which appeared right under the deer's butt.

The latter gave a thumbs up and smiled with satisfaction.

Before they could go up and say a few words, they discovered that the fishing rod that had just been submerged in the water began to tremble in panic.

The deer hurriedly grabbed the fishing rod and felt a heavy sensation in his hand - a sign that a big fish was caught.

Seeing the right opportunity, she yanked the rod hard and lifted the fish out of it—!

The icy water that followed splashed out in a semicircle along the way, as if shining for the large cargo.

but--

"Oh...it's a stinky boot, and it only has the left foot." Yu Man chuckled, "Let's cast again and see if I can catch both feet."

"..." Xiaolu had a gloomy face and didn't even have the mood to type.

Yu Man glanced at the boots thrown far away. It seemed... there was really nothing to say about them. They should have nothing to do with the treasure map.

She simply walked over to the deer and sat down as well. It was fun to just enjoy the quiet.

Sometimes he would stare at the float, sometimes he would pretend to look into the distance, his eyes would pass over her depressed pretty face...

Alas, playing games is much more fun if you play with people you get along with.

But the more she thought about it, the more she realized how painful it was to see a team disband, a game end, and a relationship break down. However, this is how the world works, and no one can do anything about it.

"Do you want me to help you cheat?" Yu Man asked, as if to drive away the thoughts in her mind.

"……Cheating?"

"Well, with a bottle of magic potion and some careful manipulation, I can weave an ice net under the ice and catch the fish... oh no, catch them in front of your hook."

Xiaolu immediately looked disgusted and typed a response with one hand: "Brother, that's shabby. What's the point of using dirty tricks to catch fish?"

"My problem, bro."

"—Look! This is the reward for traditional fishermen!"

After typing these words, the deer immediately grabbed the fishing rod with both hands because the rod began to tremble again.

The vibration this time... is very different, and the feeling of being hooked is definitely a big deal!

They stared nervously at the ice cave as fine snow drifted into it and melted into snow water.

But the taut fishing line left marks inside - those were the marks of the big fish!

The little deer was very nervous, but inexplicably excited as he reeled in the line, mentioning it from time to time. This time he was much more skilled.

After a while——

Another strong pull of the rod and the prey came out of the water in a graceful manner.

"...Fuck!" This time, Yu Man couldn't help but yell, "It's the right foot!"

But unfortunately, it is not the same boot as the left foot in front.

The little deer angrily threw the fish away, stood there with clenched fists, and said nothing, as if he wanted to melt the ice with his anger.

But she quickly took a few deep breaths, suppressed her emotions, and sat back in her chair quietly.

"There are always bumps and hurdles before reaching the result." She seemed to be typing this for herself.

"Reasonable."

Another ball of bait, another hook.

And—another disappointment.

……

"Brother, I feel like if this goes on, you're going to catch a set of Exodia..." Yu Man didn't dare to speak and started typing instead.

"……what is that?"

A card deck that can win by gathering the limbs and the body - but Yu Man didn't dare to explain, for fear that he would be made into the body part.

Just as she was thinking about how to comfort her teammates, she suddenly found a new message in her friend list.

Were they the two people I'd killed earlier in the illegal zone? By the way, had they dug up enough basic materials? But Yu Man discovered it wasn't them, but Jiandui Lulu.

"I want to cheat." There was only this one line of small words.

Yu Man pretended not to notice the people around him peeking at her and simply replied, "Brother, that's embarrassing. What's the point of using dirty tricks to catch fish?"

"...Humph, it was this lake that was unreasonable first."

"Okay, you have a point."

When Yu Man finished speaking, Xiaolu had already handed over a bottle of magic potion.

I learned this from Yu Man and supplemented it from the NPC in the main city.

She had intended to use it for dungeons and adventures, but those stories never came true.

Only revenge fishing with full utilitarianism is all that exists now.

"Can you do it, brother?" Xiaolu asked seriously.

"Trust me, bro."

Yu Man took over the medicine and was extremely dedicated. Since he said he would do it, he had to do it beautifully.

This is the frozen lake, her home turf.

There is extremely rich water vapor, hard natural ice, and plenty of water, which is ideal.

She raised her icy staff and imagined the materialization of her imagination in her mind.

It was a net woven of ice to kill all the fish... She wanted to achieve this and drive all the fish that dared not take the bait into the net voluntarily.

"Put the hook down, and I'll take care of the rest."

"I understand what you mean."

The fishhook fell into the water, and Yu Man also submerged the Ice Staff into it.

But... she suddenly felt that the feeling was a little strange - it didn't feel like a normal entry into the water.

Logically speaking, the buoyancy shouldn't be this strong... and it shouldn't disappear so quickly...

This blocked Yu Man's imagination, and she suddenly felt that the ice staff had become heavier.

With a bad premonition, she immediately took out her staff—

The two were shocked to find that there was a rotten and smelly shoe hanging on it, with only the left foot.

"..."

"..."

The long silence tormented this newly formed team.

It was like they had found a common goal, but also like they were doubting something.

In the end, this stiff atmosphere turned into a trio of resentful "Okay, okay, okay" from Yu Man's mouth.

"I'm going to tear the whole lake apart." Yu Man opened his backpack and pulled out a dozen bottles of magic potions.

"Okay, okay." Her little teammates were also fanning the flames.

If there is enough time, Yu Man can do it now.

But before that—she discovered something strange.

The amount of water in this lake...seems...to be much less than imagined.

Suddenly, an idea came to her.

Yu Man once again extended his staff into the lake, and at the same time, his heart and mind were firm and clear, constructing some magic.

"--Here it comes." Just a minute later, she felt the weight of the staff change.

At the same time, an ice net woven by magic took shape instantly, blocking the space under the staff.

Regardless of the consumption of magic power, she drove the crazy ice - closing the net.

“…Good fellow.”

What came from the Internet were several palm-sized creatures made entirely of water...fairy-like creatures.

They stared at Yu Man and the deer in disbelief and incomprehension. They had never imagined that their prank would be discovered and even captured and brought ashore...

"You little bastards are the ones who secretly used a rotten shoe to hook our fishhook underwater to play a trick on us, right?"

……

019·Fairy Curse

Looking at the prey in his hand, a sense of satisfaction came naturally, and Yu Changmao breathed a sigh of relief.

"What else is there to say? You guys."

"..."

In the web woven of ice, the fairies panicked and dared not say a word.

Yu Man admired the spoils, they looked quite good.

It is the size of a palm and has three pairs of transparent wings on its back.

Naked body, covered with gradient scales.

They seem to have no gender distinction, but you can see that some are young and some are mature.

The point is - these guys are undoubtedly intelligent, and it can be seen from their expressions.

What's more, what Yu Man found strange was that after being captured, their reactions were inconsistent...

Although they were all quite panicked, there were obvious differences in their reactions to panic.

Some of them have no opinion at all and are pulling at the transparent wings of one of their companions, trying to make it make the decision.
