Hire little monsters in your dreams every day

Chapter 147 Strange Waters
Before dawn.

Wu Jun had secretly flown back to the mainland and landed on the outskirts of Donghu City. He secretly boarded a truck and, along with the steel coil covered by a black cloth, headed towards Donghu City.

That night in the East China Sea, his bronze fish was bumped by more than a dozen different bronze fish in succession, and he didn't get a single wisp of spiritual energy!
They wanted to venture closer to the core area beneath the vortex, but it seemed like there was a barrier there, and the bronze fish couldn't get close or enter at all!

He didn’t even dare to think about how many celestial officials were in that place.

How many powerful families are behind these celestial officials?

Lying in the cabin, he became more and more depressed.

"Damn it, this news that the patriarch spread has been secondhand information from countless people."

"The spiritual energy in the sea has long been divided up and devoured by other powerful families and celestial officials. If I go there, I won't even get a drop of profit. I might even be attacked by the celestial officials and die at sea, becoming fish food!"

He no longer dared to dream of the opportunities in the East China Sea.

At this moment, all I want to do is get back to East Lake as soon as possible and see if I can get a share of the spoils in the upcoming big event!

……

Blah blah blah...

early morning.

The sound of ocean waves rose into the sky and floated up into the giant black clouds.

In the restaurant area, Wu Yun and his employees were eating fried bread slices with eggs and sausages, drinking hot soy milk, and studying as they ate.

Wu Yun looked down at the sea. His powerful eyesight, granted by eight hundred years of cultivation, and his ability to sense spiritual energy due to his position as the guardian of the floating island, allowed him to see through the seawater and clearly perceive the spiritual energy within it.

"It seems...there really is?"

In his view, at the very center of the whirlpool, a wisp of spiritual energy would occasionally leak out and drift into the seawater.

The quantity was small, and since it was in the sea, it wasn't very clear.

and……

"It seems quite lively in the sea?"
"What's going on?"

Wu Yun frowned, looking slightly troubled.

He wanted to go to the bottom of the sea to see, but the Sky Rat couldn't swim, and the Clouds couldn't fly in the sea.

"This……"

The black sable eating next to him tilted his head, squinted at the boss, quickly stuffed a slice of bread into his mouth, chewed it with his cheeks puffed out, swallowed it with his head tilted back, and then "whoosh" jumped onto the table and looked at the boss triumphantly!

"Awooooo, waaaaaah!"

...It volunteered to go explore the sea!
The owner probably doesn't know that minks can swim!
……

Blah blah blah...

A cruiser was patrolling in circles around a huge whirlpool in the distance.

On the deck, the young captain lowered his binoculars.

"This is weird, what is that thing...?"

That's right... the Non-Natural Department also discovered this vortex a long time ago!

Despite not being able to handle it, they still dispatched naval forces to specifically monitor the area.

The first mate ran over and reported to the captain.

"The monitoring instruments all showed normal readings, and the experts found no changes."

The captain nodded.

"Then let's file a report."

Recently, the ministry issued a notice saying that there might be some unusual activity in Donghu, and that they should pay closer attention to this whirlpool. Any unusual activity should be reported and dealt with promptly!
……

whoosh...

The investigation team, consisting of Blackie, Whitey, and Triangle, descended from the sky and quickly jumped into the sea, like three arrows shooting into the depths of the ocean!

They are covered in black cloud cloaks, constantly expelling air from the seawater to reduce drag and provide them with air to breathe.

Its body rippled like seaweed, its front paws retracted, and its hind legs slapped the water—its movements were fluid and fast!
The three minks were extremely excited!

Swimming is a skill ingrained in their blood!
Seeing the fish swimming around, they couldn't resist trying to catch them...

Catching fish is a skill ingrained in their blood!
But firstly, they also have a mission to complete...

Secondly, raw fish from the sea doesn't taste as good as braised fish made with mink paste...

They had no choice but to overcome their instincts and continue swimming forward, deeper into the water!
…… brush……

Deep in the sea.

A giant anglerfish swam around.

On the anglerfish's head, a tiny fairy hat seems to be stuck to it, never falling off despite the surging undercurrents.

Inside the anglerfish's belly, a thin man sat cross-legged, the light from his phone illuminating his pale face... There was no internet in the sea, so he could only watch downloaded videos and read novels.

"Damn it, what kind of garbage is this?"

"This kind of thing is written purely to torture the reader."

"Once I get ashore, I'll beat that bastard author to death!"

He turned off his phone, closed his eyes, and shared his vision with his Qingwen Bronze Fish, continuing to plunder the spiritual energy in the seawater.

His field of vision was an infinitely vast sea and countless swimming fish. Occasionally, he could smell the fragrance of spiritual energy, and he would immediately control the bronze fish to rush forward and compete with the other bronze fish for spiritual energy!
Before long, the spiritual energy was stolen by the other bronze fish.

A voice immediately came from the intercom jade talisman in his hand.

"Damn it, who stole the spiritual energy?"
"Those dogs from the Cao family?"
"Speaking of which, I chased away an idiot in the middle of the night yesterday."

"I don't know whose they are, they're trying to steal spiritual energy with their bronze fish."

The man burst into laughter.

"I've even seen people fly over or swim over, trying to steal the spiritual energy."

"After circling around here several times with no other options, they finally slunk away in disgrace."

To snatch spiritual energy from this sea, the minimum entry ticket is to attain the rank of "Water Plague Patrol Envoy"!

Without this attainment, there's no point in even thinking about it.

Even if a high-ranking official came, even if the director of Pulin Bookstore came, even if the director of the Spirit Investment Office came, there would be nothing they could do!
"Grabbing three or four strands of spiritual energy every day is still too little."

"It would be great if we could get into the core area."

……

Blah blah blah...

The three minks continued swimming, going deeper and deeper into the sea, occasionally looking up at the whirlpool above them.

The boss said the place with the most spiritual energy is right below the center of the vortex!

What they need to do is, while ensuring it is safe, go and look directly below.

whoosh...

whoosh...

whoosh...

The three minks moved like three torpedoes, rapidly approaching the core area.

Suddenly, they subconsciously felt a sense of unease about the water ahead, making them afraid to go in.

The three minks circled the body of water.

The mink held the Sky Rat in its triangular front paws, pointing the Sky Rat's head towards the water in front of it, so the boss could watch the live stream.

But then, the seawater in front of the Heavenly Mystery Rat suddenly rippled and quickly condensed into several layers of ice mirrors, like telescopes, arranged in front of the Heavenly Mystery Rat!

……

"WTF?"

The surface of the dark cloud.

Wu Yun and a dozen or so minks frowned as they saw several small flags swirling and fluttering like fish in the core waters.

It was these few small flags that gave the waters a dangerous atmosphere, preventing other bronze fish from entering, and making Blackie, Whiteie, and Triangle Sable feel dangerous and dare not enter.

What words are written on the flag?

Wu Yun squinted, trying hard to make out the details.

"The scaled creatures are born from this lineage; should they be in charge of its destiny?"

"Shuiyuan was born in Youxuan?"
