Chapter 279 Water Monster
The manatee next to him revealed the secret in one sentence. Zhou Zhenghao was a little dumbfounded after hearing this.
"You can fish as long as you are fishing, and pay attention to rest. Also, you should pay attention to safety here. After all, the boss has not noticed it, and we don't know whether it will appear suddenly. You should maintain corresponding vigilance..."
"I know, don't worry, we have all leveled up now. After killing the Doom Crow just now, I leveled up again. We are all level 16 now..."
It is true that they are level 16, and Zhou Zhenghao is now level 18. This level feels like riding a rocket.
There is a reason why they upgraded so quickly. When monsters attacked and defended, although they knew how to steal heads, most of their experience was lost to Zhou Zhenghao's five defense towers.
Many monsters are killed by defense towers, so they level up slowly.
But after reaching the second level, the level of the monsters is not low, and there are a lot of them, but the experience is real, and all of them have been obtained by these people, so the level feels like a rapid improvement.
Immediately after that, he cheered like a child and rushed directly to the boulder that he had long admired.
Then he started to take out fishing rods and baits, and several people nearby also went over noisily, and got a pair of fishing rods and some baits from Shuangqiang.
In fact, other people also like fishing, but the key is that they are not as enthusiastic as Shuangqiang Hou.
Soon these people dispersed by the lake,
Zhou Zhenghao looked at it and thought for a while, there was actually nothing going on outside.
How about fishing for a while? Speaking of fishing, Zhou Zhenghao doesn’t fish much, his skills are not strong, and he can’t say he likes it.
But at this time, he also felt a little tired. If he was fishing, it would be a good choice to rest here for a while. The key is that the scenery here is so beautiful, with mountains, water and woods, and the breeze caressing his face.
Make him feel lazy.
"Shuangqiang, please bring me a fishing rod and some bait..."
Zhou Zhenghao decided and walked over,
When Shuangqiang saw Zhou Zhenghao coming, he immediately grinned,
"Lord, just call next to me. This rock is big. If they want to fish here, I will drive them away. The two of us are here, you are on the left and I am on the right. No one loves the other.
Something about…”
"Swing your pole a little over there..."
This pair of guns was very enthusiastic, and even the connecting rod was thrown by Zhou Zhenghao.
Zhou Zhenghao was speechless after seeing it. He had nothing to do, so he sat down next to the fishing pole.
Shuangqiang was also sitting on the edge of his pole. He was talking loudly.
"It would be nice if I could have a cigarette at this time..."
Regarding the proposal of dual-gun candidates, Zhou Zhenghao was in favor of it.
"Wait a moment, I'll look for you..."
As he spoke, Zhou Zhenghao opened his store and searched around. There were more and more things in the store. If he hadn't searched carefully, he really wouldn't have known what was sold in the store.
After his search, he actually found it.
A cigarette costs ten gold coins.
"I'm sorry, this Qima is trying to steal money..."
When Zhou Zhenghao saw the price, he almost jumped off the stone.
"What's wrong, Lord?..."
"What else is going on? There is actually a cigarette seller in this shop. One cigarette is actually ten gold coins. Do you think this is for people to smoke?..."
Seeing the price, even Duangqian was speechless. Indeed, this was one stick, not 20 in a box. Even if it was ten gold coins,
Ten gold coins a piece…….
Shuangqiang Hou's eyes were still full of hope. He looked at Zhou Zhenghao. Zhou Zhenghao himself was also a bit addicted to cigarettes.
Gritting one's teeth...
I bought two directly.
After he got the cigarette in his hand, a prompt box flashed up, and he realized why the cigarette was so expensive...
[Cigarettes can greatly enhance your mental strength and relieve you from physical fatigue and mental fatigue. One cigarette is equivalent to the effect of an hour of deep sleep. 】
"This is a good thing..."
Zhou Zhenghao never thought that the law could actually produce such magical things. Then wouldn't he not have to sleep in the future? All he had to do was smoke a cigarette.
"Come and light up the double gun. Look at the introduction of this cigarette..."
After Shuangqiang saw it, his face was full of surprise.
"Lord, can smoking really help you sleep?..."
"How do I know? You'll know if you try..."
I looked around in the store and found that they really had everything. They even sold lighters, which were not expensive at all. They cost me two gold coins each, so I bought them right away.
Han Xingfa is actually not far away, so it’s not like I called him over. In the future, if I have something like cigarettes, a lighter will definitely be necessary. I can’t carry Han Xingfa everywhere and let him fire balls for me.
Bar.
Besides, using a fireball to light a cigarette loses the soul of smoking, and a lighter still brings the feeling.
I also bought two lighters, and one of them was given directly to Shuangqiang. The two of them lit up their cigarettes and took a puff with a smile. It was a feeling that even an experienced smoker would never feel.
Happiness is like a fairy, and the whole body feels comfortable.
It was more comfortable than a hot bath. A big puff of smoke came out of Zhou Zhenghao's mouth.
Comfortable,……
Good guy, Zhou Zhenghao is literally a good guy!...
I feel relaxed all over, maybe it's just like sleeping.
"In other words, if I smoke seven or eight cigarettes a day, I can work 24 hours a day and don't need to sleep at all..."
"Lord, I think it's okay. Ten gold coins each. It's only seven or eight gold coins a day.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It’s only ten gold coins, we can afford it..."
"I'm afraid this is not that simple. It's not just a few of us, the current population in this entire territory is almost 200..."
"It's almost..."
Shuangqiang nodded and stared at the fish float floating on the lake, sinking and floating without any movement.
He now also knows what Zhou Zhenghao means.
"If there are more and more people like now, there seems to be no solution. Shouldn't we formulate a set of rules?..."
Shuangqianghou's words hit Zhou Zhenghao's mind exactly.
In fact, he has been planning this matter in his mind, but there are too many things, one after another, and there is no time to stop, and he has no time to manage people like Ge.
The number of people in the territory was small before, and everyone had nothing to say. They were all trying to survive.
Now it seems that the territory is getting bigger and bigger, and the black fog outside has disappeared...
The first and second floors of the Black Tower are also considered the area of his territory. And Zhou Zhenghao has a vague feeling that since the black fog outside has dissipated, there may be survivors coming.
Or form a small team yourself and go out to search for some survivors. You can't not add more people to the territory in the future, right?
As the population increases, certain rules need to be established, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve long-term success.
"Shuangqiang Hou, I'm also considering this matter. You should think more carefully and come up with a plan. If it doesn't work, we can find time to have a meeting..."
"This is a good idea, lord. It's been so long, so have we. We should form a leadership team. Everyone should clarify their respective responsibilities and formulate a reward mechanism. What I mean is that if it doesn't work, everyone will be paid in gold coins in the future.
, and then let them buy the goods..."
"These fish hooks, fishing rods, raw materials, and food can all be sold to them. This will form a virtuous cycle and increase their enthusiasm. In addition, if the population increases in the future, our tents will also have to be sold for money.
of.……"
"This is a good idea. You can make it more detailed..."
"Lord!..., what are you doing?..."
At this time, a figure sneakily touched the stone, interrupting the conversation between the two people. Zhou Zhenghao looked back and saw that it was no one else.
It's the manatee with the police shield behind him.
"Why are you here?..."
Zhou Zhenghao looked at him with some confusion. He moved his hand to his mouth involuntarily and took a puff of cigarette. The manatee's eyes were as wide as a calf's.
"Lord, where did you get the cigarettes?..."
"I'm sorry, so that's what happened..."
Zhou Zhenghao understood what he meant as soon as he asked. How can a man not smoke, especially after he has been in the territory for such a long time. He came here smelling the smell of smoke.
He looked back and saw that not only was it a manatee, but also Han Xingfa was standing beside the stone, looking at him eagerly.
The militiamen all looked at the cigarettes in their hands eagerly.
Zhou Zhenghao had no choice but to stand up from the stone.
"Let me tell you, these cigarettes are not cheap. They cost ten gold coins each. Today, in order to celebrate that everyone has cleaned up the second floor of the Black Tower, I will give everyone a free cigarette. If you want to smoke in the future, you can buy it yourself! ...
"
While talking, I bought some from the store. Each of the twelve cigarettes was given one.
This guy immediately filled the lakeside with vomiting. Only the only woman, Sun Shuang, stayed away from him.
"Lord!..., we have no money, and all the money we gained from defeating monsters was picked up by your sister. What can we buy?..."
A more courageous militiaman nearby asked Zhou Zhenghao directly on the stone.
Zhou Zhenghao laughed,
"If you don't have money now, you will have money later. Just wait..."
Everyone was laughing and joking, and when they were about to talk, suddenly a militiaman shouted.
"Ah. Yes..."
The people around were startled when they saw the militiaman running towards a fishing pole by the lake. The float of the fishing pole had already sunk.
The whole fishing rod was shaking desperately. Fortunately, he had quick eyesight and quick reaction, and he grabbed the fishing rod.
Otherwise, his fishing rod would be dragged into the lake by the fish below.
"Ha, there really are fish..."
At this moment, everyone turned their attention again. Soon the militiaman lifted up the fishing rod, and a half-foot-long grass carp hung on the fishing rod.
The grass carp was collected, and this militiaman was quite skilled.
He directly placed the grass carp in a pothole behind him.
Some lake water has entered there. If they had brought a bucket or something with them, they could have put the fish in.
But not here.
There were smart militiamen behind, who dug a puddle and poured some water into it. The grass carp could survive for a long time if thrown in.
Then one after another people caught things, not only grass carp, but also shrimps, crabs...,
Someone even caught a puffer fish.
The cheers one after another made the lakeside full of laughter, especially after everyone smoked a cigarette. Later, they all knew that these cigarettes are indeed good things. Why are they sold so expensive...?
Not only does it taste good, but it can also relieve fatigue after smoking it.
Even their drowsy heads became much clearer. They all saw the cigarette reminder and knew that one cigarette was worth an hour of sleep. This was definitely a good thing...
At this time, Shuangqiang Hou's face looked a little ugly. He considered himself a fishing expert.
Who would have thought that while others were lifting their rods, only his fishing rod did not move at all.
"What's this
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
?...Fishing depends on luck, right?..."
Zhou Zhenghao smiled and lifted his fishing rod out of the lake. There was a fat crab on it, which was a good thing.
"Lord, you are a bit unkind. You caught such a fat crab yourself, and you still made sarcastic remarks. This crab is half mine. You want to share it with me when you go back and steam it..."
"Okay, okay!..."
Zhou Zhenghao was in a good mood, grabbed the crab and put it directly into his backpack.
These ten militiamen did not have backpacks, but each of the five Zhou Zhenghao had backpacks. These fresh crabs were put into the backpacks and taken out again, exactly as they were when they were put in. They were still alive.
Seeing Zhou Zhenghao put the crab into his backpack, hung a bait on the hook, and flicked the fishing rod beautifully,
The fishhook made a "whoosh!..." sound.
He drew a beautiful arc and plunged into the lake. This action is extremely handsome.
Looking at the double-gun monkey, he curled his lips. At this moment, the double-gun monkey's fishing rod shook crazily.
"Ha, I'm hooked. It must be a big fish, I'm sorry! It's so strong..."
Holding the fishing rod with both hands, he felt a huge force coming from the fishing rod.
This is no longer a question of big fish or not. How big is this fish?...
He felt like his whole body was being pulled along the edge of a stone.
"What's going on?..."
Zhou Zhenghao also noticed something strange and immediately went over to help.
He grabbed the fishing rod between the two guns with both hands and pushed back together, but it didn't work. The force on the other side was so huge that he felt completely unable to resist it.
"Let go!..."
It was Zhou Zhenghao who reacted quickly and directly grabbed his two guns and let go of the fishing rod.
Originally, there was some reluctance to part with these two spears. Zhou Zhenghao grabbed them and pushed them back with both hands. The huge inertia of strength caused the two of them to fall hard on the stone platform.
And that fishing rod was directly immersed in the bottom of the lake,
"Why is this thing so powerful? Even the two of us can't pull it. How big of a fish is this?..."
Before Shuangqiang had time to sigh, Manatee and Han Xingfa beside him also looked over.
"Lord, what have you tuned?..."
"I don't know, the connecting rods were all pulled away..."
Zhou Zhenghao said angrily. As soon as he climbed up from the stone, his hair suddenly stood up and he felt a sharp murderous aura. It was coming straight towards him from the lake.
"Not good!... Be careful, everyone..."
Zhou Zhenghao shouted immediately before he could react in time.
Before the others had time to react, they saw water boiling on the edge of the lake. "Gududu!..." The water splashed upward crazily.
It seemed like something huge was about to emerge from the bottom of the lake.
Everyone was so frightened that they all backed away. Some people had already picked up weapons and didn't even bother to put away the fishing rods on the shore.
"Shuangqianghou!... You are indeed an expert in fishing. What did you catch?..."
At this time, Han Xingfa walked to the stone platform holding his staff.
"Stop talking nonsense, how do I know?..."
Shuangqiang looked solemn, and as the waves rolled, a huge thing gradually emerged from below.
It's actually as big as a cruise ship, but this guy looks more abstract.
Zhou Zhenghao looked at it for a long time and didn't understand what it was. The body was as high as two stories. It was a big mess, with more than a dozen tentacles around it, just entangled like that. There was an oily swamp on the tentacles.
, among these tentacles is a huge mouth with dense and sharp teeth, and the eyes are all bright green.
From time to time, two tentacles would hit the lake hard, causing splashes more than ten feet high.
After this guy showed up, Zhou Zhenghao's prompt box also flashed up.
[The Half-Moon Lake Water Monster is the overlord in Half-Moon Lake. It has powerful attack power, and its tentacles can wrap, collide, and strike. It usually hides deep in the bottom of Half-Moon Lake. If the people of the Black Tower are fishing around Half-Moon Lake,
There is a chance that the water monster will be angered and rush out of the lake.】
Zhou Zhenghao looked at the notification sound and was speechless for a moment.
This is actually the boss.
Now that everything is clear, I can’t blame the fact that there is no boss at the entrance to the second floor of the Black Tower.
It turns out that the boss on the second floor of the Black Tower is actually hidden in Half Moon Lake. If it weren't for fishing, these people would never have discovered it. Fortunately, Shuangqiang likes fishing.
"What's going on? Lord, what the hell is this?..."
Shuangqiang also had a surprised expression on his face, he now had both guns in his hands.
"Congratulations!... You really caught the big guy with the fishing rod. This is the boss on the second floor of the Black Tower. It's called the Half-Moon Lake Monster. I think as long as I kill him, I should be able to get the key to the third floor...
"
"It turns out it's this guy. Not the Lord of the Abyss..."
After hearing this, Shuangqiang let out a long breath, and the expressions of others around him also became relaxed. No matter what,
The water monster is much easier to deal with than the Lord of the Abyss.
Zhou Zhenghao spoke loudly, and everyone around him heard it.
But at this time, after the water monster emerged from the water, countless tentacles slid directly in the water, and its body rushed towards the shore at an extremely fast speed.
At this time, everyone was also experienced in the battlefield, and naturally formed a formation. The shield bearer leaned forward, and the police shields were used to protect everyone in front of them.
As soon as the formation was set up, the water monster had already rushed to the lake. Mixed with huge water vapor, it rushed in front of everyone like a huge wave.
