Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Liu Zheng ate a few palatability-inducing pills and then jumped into the river.

He didn't know if the cosplay costume would be damaged by the river, and he didn't want to take the risk.

Given his current weight, he should have made quite a splash.

However, in reality, only a few ripples appeared on the river.

Liu Zheng felt as if he had jumped into a huge bucket of lard, feeling nauseous all over.

He paddled with all his might until he finally sank completely into the river.

"Ocean Heart (enhanced) is now active."

The system notification arrived late.

Alright, that's settled now.

Liu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

With the basic configuration of the Bull and Horse, plus the Ocean Heart bonus, as long as the sewers don't overflow, there shouldn't be any problems.

Now we just wait for the fish to bite.

He didn't have to wait long; a dozen minutes later, ripples appeared on the water's surface.

"coming!"

Liu Zheng focused his attention.

It looks like there's more than one coming.

The advantage is that the probability of catching a megamouth whale increases.

The downside is that he'll get attacked by the fish.

"Boss, now it's up to you whether you can pull it off."

As Liu Zheng silently chanted, the school of fish appeared.

Four large, very similar-looking fish leaped out of the water and pounced on him.

Then, they crashed right in front of Liu Zheng.

The furthest jump distance was less than half a meter.

???

Liu Zheng stared in disbelief at the school of fish floating belly-up on the surface of the water.

Looking at their spherical bodies, he suspected that even adding a little hydrogen gas would make them float.

Is this even a fish? Even pigs aren't as fat as you.

Liu Zheng swam silently to the school of fish, and after a difficult comparison, he confirmed it.

The second fattest one inside should definitely be the megamouth whale.

He clamped the boning knife between his two front hooves, intending to give it a quick death.

Although the boning knife wasn't very long, thankfully the fat layer on the head of the giant whale wasn't that thick either.

The blade flashed like thunder, and the burst of muscle power even pushed aside the semi-solid river water around it.

This is the strength of the Bloody Restaurant's three-time outstanding employee and the head of the takeout department.

Our cattle and horses are really too strong!

However, ingredients that the executive chef specifically requests are naturally not so simple.

The four large fish opened their mouths at the same time.

They were frantically sucking in the surrounding air, and Liu Zheng even felt a little suffocated.

He realized something was wrong, immediately stopped his charge, and dodged to the side.

Four massive air cannons roared out, carving deep craters into the river's surface.

Fortunately, Liu Zheng reacted quickly and avoided the tracks of three of the air cannons.

But an air cannon still flew towards him with unstoppable force.

"Goodness, I thought it was a bunch of Magikarp, but it turned out to be Gyarados."

Liu Zheng stood up straight, raised his horse's hoof high, and then stomped it down hard.

hit!

The tangible and the intangible collide, unleashing astonishing power.

Huge columns of water shot into the sky, stirring up waves in the blocked river.

Using the reaction force, the four big fish finally flipped over.

They frantically thrashed their tails, trying to dive to the bottom of the water.

"You think you can just run away after hitting someone?"

Liu Zheng leaped high into the water and then crashed down.

The entire surface of the water was pushed aside, and the four large fish were once again flipped belly up.

"Run, why don't you run?"

He walked towards the school of fish while cursing and swearing.

He had plenty of time left, so he planned to stun the fish and catch the live ones to take back.

Although dead ones are acceptable, living ones are definitely more valuable.

The white-feathered chicken is fairly fair; it might even give some extra rewards.

The fish knew they were at a life-or-death situation. The four pairs of dead fish stared at each other for a moment, and then made a sound similar to that of a dolphin.

The sound waves spread outwards, and even the air became misty.

This is because the shock wave causes a sudden increase in air pressure, which in turn causes a rapid drop in temperature, resulting in the condensation of water vapor in the air into water droplets.

Liu Zheng was the first to be affected, and his skin was slightly deformed under the impact of the sound waves.

But the one most affected was not him, but the school of fish.

The four large fish gradually melted away in the sound waves, starting from their tails, until only their heads remained.

Then, the melted flesh and bones coalesced together, transforming into a bloated monster with four heads, eight eyes, hands, and feet.

"grass!"

Liu Zheng couldn't help but curse.

What is this? A super 3+1?

He never expected that not only were there villains everywhere in this world, but even his mother, a fish, possessed extraordinary skills.

Now that it's turned into this, can it still be considered a megalodon?

Liu Zheng was a little suspicious.

But despite the doubts, the fish still need to be caught.

Even if we don't count the giant whale, we can still call them fish-men.

Didn't the White Feathered Chicken try to smuggle fish last time? Fishmen and mermaids are pretty much the same, aren't they?

Before he could even make a move, the four-in-one fishman charged over first.

With a flick of its webbed hands, it unleashed a water jet, while its four mouths continuously sprayed out small air bullets.

"You have a small skill, but you still dare to do the same thing?"

Liu Zheng sneered, raised his horse's hoof, and slapped it several times in succession, smashing all the water gun pellets to pieces.

Then an old ox pushing a cart crashed forward, sending the four-in-one fishman flying.

The fish-man hung on the wall on the left bank, and like a painting, it gradually slid down.

The eight fish's eyes were bloodshot; this wasn't because they were about to unleash a powerful attack, but because they had suffered a brain hemorrhage.

Liu Zheng was relentless. He jumped ashore, stomped on the fish's body with one hoof, and then used the other hoof to slap the four fish heads in turn.

After a brutal beating, the four-in-one fishman finally passed out completely.

"Now they can't escape."

he said proudly.

"How dare you steal my fish!"

Just as he was about to hoist the fish onto his back, a voice roared.

He turned around abruptly and saw a middle-aged man wearing a fish-killing apron glaring angrily at him from a distance.

Liu Zheng felt that he looked familiar, and then he immediately remembered.

Isn't that the person in the picture of the giant whale?

"Don't run away, I'm going to use you as my burrow today!"

The middle-aged man shouted sharply, then rushed towards him.

"Fuck!"

Liu Zheng picked up the fishman and ran away.

Chapter 81 I want you to seduce my daughter

"Want to run?"

The middle-aged man sneered and swung his right arm.

His right arm spun like a windmill, then swung forward with a sudden motion.

Under the influence of centrifugal force, the middle-aged man's arm continued to extend forward and lengthen until it became a thin fishing rod.

The flesh and blood fishing line caught up with Liu Zheng, and the finger bone fishhook pierced through his spine.

Liu Zheng was terrified and struggled to break free.

However, the fishing line, which is only as thick as a hair, is exceptionally strong and cannot be broken at all.

He immediately clamped the boning knife between his front hooves and chopped it down at the fishing line.

However, the boning knife, which had always been successful, couldn't budge the fishing line at all this time.

The middle-aged man pulled him backward, and Liu Zheng immediately flew up and crashed in front of him.

"Run, why don't you run?"

The middle-aged man said dismissively.

"Uh"

He felt the conversation sounded familiar.

"Tell me, who sent you to steal the fish?"

The middle-aged man shouted a question.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng stopped what he was about to do, reaching for his teething toy.

Interrogation is good; it means communication is possible.

"I work at the Bloody Restaurant. Executive Chef Napoleon sent me to fish for mega-whales. I didn't know these fish were yours, I'm so sorry."

He said this half-truthfully.

"It really is that plague chicken."

The middle-aged man sneered, seemingly having anticipated Liu Zheng's answer.

"Didn't it tell you not to fish in this area? Does it want to break the treaty and start another war with me?"

he questioned.

“Napoleon didn’t say. And I didn’t come here on purpose; I was thrown down by the Ghost Hand.”

Liu Zheng replied.
