The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 354 No! Nooooo!
In the lake, Qin Lang used a frog-like swimming motion to gradually move towards deeper waters, and the various fish that occasionally swam by filled him with joy.

As he pulled them down, Egg Baby and Spicy looked at the lake through the completely transparent container walls, their eyes widening involuntarily.

This kind of experience is so interesting for them!

Seeing the two curious little food spirits, Qin Lang's smile deepened, and he swam with increased force, quickly diving to a depth of five meters.

At this depth, Qin Lang could feel the astonishing water pressure all around him constantly squeezing his body.

For an average person, reaching this level is already the limit.

However, if you are a master chef, you can go even deeper.

"Tianshu borrows strength and defend!"

As he silently chanted, a thin layer of light enveloped Qin Lang's body, instantly easing the pressure on him.

"Let's go deeper and catch bigger fish!" While communicating with Egg Baby and Spicy through telepathy, Qin Lang continued downwards.

Qin Lang stopped again after diving to a depth of about fifteen meters, where he could vaguely see the outline of the lake bottom through the headlamp he was wearing.

Upon arriving here, all sorts of lake fish could be seen everywhere in the water. Qin Lang picked up the net and casually scooped up three or four sizable fish.

Qin Lang grinned and continued fishing while glancing at the dark figure slowly swimming in the distance.

It was a large fish that was over a meter long.

Thinking of the scene of that tourist catching a one-meter-long grass carp, Qin Lang was suddenly tempted.

How about... we try to catch this big guy?
With these thoughts in mind, Qin Lang cautiously approached the other person.

At the same time, not far behind Qin Lang, Luo Mi and Liu Chuang slowly approached with their diving equipment. When they saw that Qin Lang had not noticed them at all, their expressions immediately became excited.

"Kukuku, as expected of the stealth coating I specially modified with my own funds." Lomi grinned, revealing her little tiger teeth, her face full of pride. "We're already this close, and Qin Lang and his Food Spirits still haven't noticed us."

"Let's cut this guy's safety rope first!" Liu Chuang waved his arm excitedly. "That way, the others won't notice anything amiss, we'll just knock him out and steal his precious spirit!"

“That’s right, that’s it!” Lomi nodded, controlling a mechanical arm to slowly extend from the device and then gradually approach Qin Lang.

At this moment, Qin Lang was still cautiously approaching the big fish. Even Danbao and Lala sensed what Qin Lang was thinking and were nervously watching the big fish.

Neither the human nor the spirit noticed the danger slowly approaching from behind, which made Luo Mi and Liu Chuang even more smug.

Ten meters... five meters... three meters...

Qin Lang was getting closer and closer to the big fish, and the diving device was also getting closer and closer to him.

"Almost there!" Lomi quickly pressed buttons on the control panel in front of her, controlling the robotic arm to move closer to the safety rope behind Qin Lang.

Liu Chuang, meanwhile, kept his eyes glued to Qin Lang on the surveillance screen.

The next moment, a bluish-purple figure suddenly appeared on the screen.

Ok?
Liu Chuang rubbed his eyes hard, then his expression gradually turned terrified, "Luo...Luo Mi!"

"Huh?" Lomi subconsciously looked up, and then saw the same blue-purple figure in the picture. Her expression froze.

That is…

That is! ! !

"A leaping fish?!"

Amidst the horrified gazes of the two, Xiao Cai glanced at the surveillance camera, then forcefully flicked her small fishtail, unleashing a surge of immense water power that coalesced into a tail far larger than the diving device itself, which hurtled towards the device.

"Do not…"

As they watched the rapidly enlarging fish tail, Liu Chuang and his companion were shocked.

The entire diving device suddenly collapsed, as if crushed by something enormous, and then exploded in the water.

"boom!!!"

A sudden explosion occurred underwater, and two blurry figures were thrown rapidly towards the surface of the lake, eventually disappearing from sight, with only faint screams echoing in the distance.

"No! Noooooo!" At the same time, the large fish that had been standing still and Qin Lang, who was about to grab the fish, were both startled by the loud noise behind them.

Qin Lang turned around abruptly, blinked blankly at the sudden appearance of Xiao Cai and the things exploding at the bottom of the lake, and then suddenly realized what was happening.

"My fish!"

When he turned his head again, the big fish he had been eyeing had already fled in panic, leaping ten meters away.

Just when Qin Lang thought the fish he had caught was about to escape, a spicy voice suddenly rang out.

"Chapter!"

As the sound echoed, a light purple blade of light gathered from the lake water and then slashed heavily towards the large fish in the distance.

The blade of light flashed and disappeared in an instant, while the giant fish froze in place.

This is…

Mental combat technique, [Soul Slash]!
Qin Lang's eyes lit up, and he quickly swam towards the big fish.

Unsurprisingly, the big fish rolled its eyes and went to Fish Planet.

Only when he got closer could Qin Lang see the species of the large fish.

It was a sturgeon, and its length was not just a little over a meter as he had previously estimated, but a full two meters!

"Well done!" Qin Lang gave Lala a thumbs up, then excitedly hugged the sturgeon and swam towards Xiao Cai.

"Xiao Cai, what brings you here?"

"What just happened?"

Xiao Cai rolled her eyes in a human-like manner, flicked her tail, and quickly disappeared into the school of fish.

"Uh..." Qin Lang scratched his head in confusion.

Just then, a pulling force came from behind.

The five-minute underwater adventure has come to an end.

Qin Lang gripped the landing net tightly with one hand and held the two-meter-long sturgeon with the other, returning to the lake surface under the guidance of the safety rope.

"Wow--"

With a resounding splash, Qin Lang's head emerged from the lake.

When people saw the sturgeon he was holding, a chorus of gasps and uproar erupted around them.

The middle-aged man who caught a one-meter-long grass carp was already surprising enough, but Qin Lang actually caught a two-meter-long fish!

And it's not just any fish, it's a rare wild sturgeon!

Almost simultaneously with Qin Lang, Cao Dongdong and his two companions, who were about to show off their gains, widened their eyes and instantly fell silent.

The best they managed to catch was a grass carp that Jiang Jun managed to catch, which was about 70 centimeters long. The other two caught even smaller fish.

It's nothing compared to Qin Lang's sturgeon.

Not to mention that Qin Lang was also carrying a net in his other hand, which also contained several plump lake fish.

Qin Lang, that guy…

That's practically cheating!

Cao Dongdong and the other two shook their heads helplessly.

However, Zuo Ge quickly composed himself, swallowed hard, and thought, "Such a big sturgeon must taste delicious, right?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Dongdong and Jiang Jun exchanged a glance.

Suddenly I realized that losing wasn't such a big deal.
