Chapter 1124 The Mascot is the Real Boss
It happened very quickly, whoosh.
This feeling was nothing but Gu Sanqiu's personal imagination. As a commodity, he didn't feel anything at all.
Although he kept his eyes open, the overall feeling was like closing and opening his eyes, and then he saw Yaya standing next to him, holding a bow and arrow, guarding against something.
"How come you are faster than me?"
Gu Sanqiu moved silently to Yaya's side, and the spear behind him quickly changed into a large crossbow with a ferocious shape.
In this unclear situation, try not to use weapons such as spears. Carrying them on your back will make you behave like the Fatui vanguard's musketeers, with the barrel of the gun exposed, which could cause harm to others.
"Those with traction must be faster than you. After all, I have been here before. You can think of it as VIP treatment."
YaYa whispered, "Since I came out so quickly, I still have to keep watch for you."
"That's true."
The sound of splashing water continued to be heard. There should be a river ahead with a large flow and relatively fast current.
The tide is rising and there are no obstacles ahead.
This is of course nonsense. If there were no obstacles, Yaya wouldn't be so careful.
On the other side of the river, a rock helmet king was beating a very large beast with his fists. He glanced at the wood and thick line placed next to him, which should be the prey he caught.
Only after he had knocked the head of this thing, let's just say a fish, crooked did the Rock Helmet King place it in front of several smaller companions nearby. Then he glanced around with a vigilant look on his face and was the last one to retreat.
“Is this hunting?”
Yaya rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense. And judging from the looks of it, the competition here seems to be quite fierce. If this were on the ground, if there was a Rock Helmet King in a tribe, he would be a leader-level being that would be worshipped."
Gu Sanqiu sighed: "Understand, this is the first time I've seen it."
If you are in a human-inhabited area on the ground, it's not too bad. If you don't go into the wild, you basically won't see anything special.
Now this is interesting, as soon as we arrived, we started a primitive hunt.
"That big fish is quite powerful. If it were left out in the open, it would take at least a team of adventurers to catch it."
Perhaps this is also the reason why Rock Helmet King must join the hunting team. His companions do not have the strength to hunt such large animals.
Yaya put down her guard: "This Rock Helmet King should be much more capable than those pampered guys on the ground. If I am not mistaken, the rock shell on his body has been shattered, and there are traces of explosions on his body."
Gu Sanqiu, whose eyes were widened, felt like a newbie.
"explode?"
Yaya nodded: "Yes, the big fish must have struggled for a while after being caught . The fishing rod is obviously the weapon of the Rock Helmet King. He probably used it to maintain a stalemate, while the little followers beside him went straight to the explosive barrel."
Good job.
Is there such a way of playing?
Gu Sanqiu noticed something was wrong: "Wait, if that's the case, then wouldn't the monsters below be more powerful in terms of overall strength and fighting will?"
YaYa said seriously: "Yes, the fact that the Rock Helmet King has to go out hunting is also one of the evidences. The relatively harsh environment forces them to continue to hone their strength, just for self-protection."
"There are still cases on the ground. There is a place in Xumi where there is a very precious treasure in plain sight, but no one dares to take it because there are two kings with their respective tribes training there all day long. The combat effectiveness of both sides is terrifyingly high."
"By the way, let me remind you that if you encounter monsters that show their fangs and claws when you meet them down there, don't be afraid. This is normal."
YaYa chuckled: "If the monster you encounter has no ill intentions towards you, it is either a hidden powerful being, or there is something wrong with the environment."
Gu Sanqiu was puzzled: "Didn't you tell me before that you have a trading relationship with monsters, and you are secretly sponsoring the little girl from Musk's family to study the Qiuqiu language."
Yaya said complacently: "Of course, the prerequisite is to gain trust and show your sincerity. Language plays an immeasurable role in this."
"Oh, you should have said so earlier."
Gu Sanqiu stood up with an expression of "Why are you telling me now?" and waved to the Rock Helmet King who was about to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute— "
YaYa:?!
What are you doing!
After hearing the sound, the Rock Helmet King threw the huge fishing rod in his hand over without a second thought. There was a foul-smelling blood stain on the crudely made large fish hook.
"Hey, calm down. I'm not here to fight with you."
Gu Sanqiu reached out to catch the strange weapon, then threw it back.
"I'm here to negotiate terms, or you can understand it as making a deal."
Gu Sanqiu swung his palm towards the river, knocking to the ground a giant beast that jumped out to launch a sneak attack, then walked forward and stomped on its head to pieces.
"This is your reward. If it's not enough, I'll go catch another one."
YaYa hurried over, a look of extreme alert on her face.
"What's the point of talking to them? Do you really expect these monsters to understand Liyue language?"
You're standing here and the whole world is speaking Liyue dialect. No matter how outrageous the script is, they wouldn't dare to write it like this!
But the Rock Helmet King took a good look at Gu Sanqiu and nodded.
"If it's you, yes."
YaYa was confused.
He didn't understand what the Rock Helmet King said, but that didn't stop him from hearing that there was no hostility in the other's tone.
This big guy can really understand Liyue language? !
"Don't just stand there like an idiot. This is a skill that I almost forgot about because I haven't used it much."
Gu Sanqiu patted Yaya and said, "What I say will be automatically translated in his ears. Of course, the same is true in reverse."
The Rockhelm King stepped forward and carried the prey: "Good man, what do you want to trade with me?"
Gu Sanqiu raised his eyebrows: "Tell me what a kind person means before the transaction."
"You have an aura that brings peace of mind to your people. You are a poor man who paints his eyebrows in front of the mirror in order to see the most beautiful scene. Before he dies, he also hopes that he can break through to a higher level of warrior."
The Rock Helmet King nodded slightly: "You are a kind person, so we are willing to communicate with you."
Gu Sanqiu appeared calm on the surface, and then caught a larger sea beast for the Rock Helmet King as a reward for answering his questions.
It’s not easy!
Young Master, I have finally achieved the living standard of a golden retriever!
Finally, after seeing me, the first thing that increased was not the desire to slice me, but my favorability towards me!
“He’s the reason I’m here.”
Gu Sanqiu pulled Yaya over and said, "This kid seems to have forgotten something here. As a local, do you have any clues?"
"he?"
The Rock Helmet King moved his big nose and said, "It smells terrible. It's disgusting."
"He has mortgaged his past and future in the deeper depths. If you want to bring them back, you need to go deeper with him."
King Rockhelm said: "He is the chosen one, but he only has one chance."
"If he fails, no matter how many wishes and reluctances he has, his final fate in this life will be to be buried deep in this dark land."
