For the task of hunting the third-level corpse fish in Caishi Lake, the lobby of the mission hall is always displayed in gray, that is to say, this task has not started yet.
The long-legged mercenary team became famous in the first battle of Jingxi Road, and many big mercenary teams wanted to cooperate with them.
The high-level mercenary team has quotas for affiliated teams, which are usually used by those teams that are not strong enough or need financial support.
Yu Jiatang himself has long legs, so there is no need to hug anyone's thighs, so the mercenary teams who asked Xiao Mao to come to the door in the name of "cooperation", but actually annexed, all refused.
Just when they were guessing whether the long-legged mercenary team had some kind of background, so they dared to refuse so confidently, the long-legged mercenary team ushered in a newcomer.
It's Wen Tong's sister.
Having not seen each other for several days, Wen Tong looked a little less depressed than before, and even had a smile on his face.
After seeing Yu Jiatang, Wen Tong came up to give him a hug, perhaps because of their reunion after a long absence, Xiao Mao didn't stop him, but he just let Wen Tong hug him, I don't know if there was any two seconds.
"Dian Dian, have you gained weight these two days? Why do I think your waist is not as thin as before?"
The serval cat is thin, with a slender waist and long legs. It is quite handsome when jumping and running, and the pair of protruding ears on its head makes the wild serval cat a kind of contrast.
Yu Jiatang was overweight, black, and short-legged, so he cherished his hard-won slender figure with long legs. As soon as he heard Tong's words, he quickly lowered his head to look at his waist and abdomen.
"Probably not, it's just that the dark yellow color looks fat."
As Yu Jiatang's supernatural power increased, he found that there were fewer spots on his hair, as if his body was undergoing some kind of mutation.
Wen Tong was just joking, seeing the nervous look of the big cat, he quickly echoed: "I also think it's your coat color that makes you fat, let's do a styling later, trim your hair, and immediately slim back to a small waist. "
Yu Jiatang looked at her expressionlessly: What the hell is Xiaomanyao
Wen Tong's identity plate showed that he was a power-type supernatural being. After being introduced to the team, he received the player's nameplate from Xiaomao.
Yu Jiatang asked about Wen Tong's abilities in private. Speaking of which, Wen Tong's abilities are the weirdest one he has ever seen. It doesn't look like the attributes of the five elements, nor is it a special type of spiritual system or space system. As for speed and strength , it's even less like it.
Wen Tong smiled wryly: "I don't know what kind of supernatural power I have, it seems like I can do a little bit of everything."
Yu Jiatang: ... That's really amazing, miss.
"My father asked me to hide the special things about the ability first, and it's not too late to expose it when the time is right."
Yu Jiatang couldn't help asking: "You and your father..." He remembered that Wen Tong had always had a problem with his parents who abandoned him.
"My mother has already died in a research mission, and my father... half of his body is paralyzed, and now he even has to rely on help for his life."
"He is like this, so why should I resent. They didn't abandon me on purpose. It was because of their status and responsibility. For their kind of people, they are the people needed by the country first, and the children second. parents in need."
"He seems to have a high status in the base now, all because he has some confidential information on mutant toxins in his hands, which he and my mother exchanged for it at an unimaginable price."
"Even if I can't help him, I can't hold him back in this situation. I'm angry with him."
Yu Jiatang is still a little worried. Wen Tong's supernatural ability is special. When forced to do so, it is inevitable that some researchers will hit her with their thoughts. If General Wen has to choose between Dayi and his daughter in the future, which side will he choose?
"If there is a day when he abandons me again, then I will not think of any blood relationship." In fact, Wen Tong still has no deep feelings for his father. After all, they have never met before meeting at the base, nor have they no contact. Rather than talking about family affection, it is better to say that there is more sense of responsibility to repay Shengen.
The long-legged mercenary team rested at the base for nearly half a month, and finally got the mission notification—the third-level corpse fish in Caishi Lake appeared, and the mission began!
This task has not been completed by the team yet, and some people in the base have already begun to offer quotations for the third-level mutant crystals.
On the way to Caishi Lake in the car, Yu Jiatang turned on the projection playback function on the captain's nameplate, "This is the image of the corpse fish sent from the mission hall. What do you think after watching it?"
Chen Jing laughed twice: "What else can I think about, I can't beat it."
There was a chill in the car.
Chen Jing's embarrassed smile slowly stopped, and finally he closed his mouth tightly.
It was also born by a mother. After seeing the image projection of the corpse fish, Chen Jin carefully analyzed: "The evolution direction of the evolved corpse fish generally does not deviate from their original breed characteristics. This is also a bit different from the mutant beasts. like, like..."
Yu Jiatang immediately interjected: "For example, the serval cat, after the mutation, it has a slim waist, long legs, and a cool face." The last point was added by himself.
The car continued to be cold.
Yu Jiatang lay obediently beside Xiao Mao, and shut up.
"In your opinion, what kind of fish is this fish?" Wen Tong frowned and looked at the corpse fish on the projection, which had a terrifying and strange appearance due to the mutation of corpse.
"Grass carp?" Chen Jin was also not sure, the fish corpse had mutated so much that it was impossible to see what it was like.
"Carp?" Hong Qinggui didn't like fish and didn't know anything about fish, so he said one of the few fish he knew.
"I look a bit like a black fish?" Uncle Sun couldn't tell either.
Yu Jiatang, who was most qualified to express her opinion, remained silent, staring at the corpse fish in thought.
Chen Jin pushed his younger brother's arm: "What kind of fish do you think it is?"
Chen Jing smiled stupidly. In his eyes, there seemed to be no difference in aquatic products, so he said, "I think it looks like Pipi shrimp!"
"..."
It was cold again in the car.
Chen Jin slapped him on the back of the head: "Can shrimp be the same as fish?"
"It's different." Chen Jing said confidently, "But didn't it mutate from a corpse? Maybe it mutated from a pippi shrimp to what it is now."
Chen Jin was annoyed by him, "Corpse mutation can change race? Then why do I see that those zombies haven't changed race?"
It’s okay not to say this sentence, but once he said this sentence, Chen Jing immediately asked everyone to get together and said in a low voice: "Don't you think that there are too many corpse beasts appearing recently? Maybe some zombies have turned into corpses." Mutated into a corpse beast, using the talent of beasts, it is more convenient to hunt and kill living people."
Everyone was stunned by his logic, even the oldest Uncle Sun had an expression that he had seen for a long time.
When everyone was still shocked by Chen Jing's divine logic, Yu Jiatang suddenly said: "Based on my experience of eating fish, I think this fish... should be..."
Everyone waited with bated breath for his answer.
Yu Jiatang patted the child next to him with his paw, "Xiao Mao, speak for me."
other people:"… "
Xiao Mao deserves to be a first-class shit-shoveling officer with professional quality. After being cheated by his master, he still maintained a paralyzed face and said, "I think it should be a catfish."
Yu Jiatang roared: "No way!"
Hong Qinggui didn't know much about fish, so he didn't understand why the cat team reacted so strongly: "Is there any problem with this fish?"
Chen Encyclopedia Jin explained: "Of course there are problems."
"This kind of fish is actually a very common fish. The meat is high in nutrition. It only has bones and no spines. It can also nourish women. But they have a characteristic, that is, they can eat everything."
"The carcasses of some animals, such as mice, are eaten by maggots. Before the end of the world, some people used maggots to raise catfish. It sounds disgusting, but it is true. Catfish also have extremely low requirements for water quality. They have tenacious vitality. It’s a good fish to keep.”
Yu Jiatang has eaten so many fish from all over the world, so he naturally knows this. In fact, in some places, catfish are fed with clean food, but they can't resist the nature of this kind of fish. They are relatively omnivorous fish themselves. , and can live in places with very poor water quality. Compared with other fish species, this kind of fish tastes less reassuring.
Hong Qinggui's face changed when he heard that, "If the predecessor of this corpse fish is really a catfish, if it has evolved more in terms of eating, or in terms of vitality..."
Chen Jing also realized the seriousness of the problem: "Then this third-level corpse fish, I'm afraid we won't be able to kill it alone."
Captain Xiaomao is indeed powerful, but his ability seems to be a fire-type ability. He may not be able to exert his full strength against the corpse fish living in Caishi Lake. After all, water can defeat fire.
And their cat team...
Yu Jiatang was sharpening his claws on a metal plate at the moment, "Come on, it's just a catfish, there's nothing to be afraid of."
There might be a cat sitting there after all. Even though Chen Jin knew it was a corpse catfish, he didn't feel uneasy. He asked, "Captain Xiaomao, how do you know it's a catfish?"
Xiao Mao didn't speak, just pulled the big cat into his arms and hugged him.
Yu Jiatang felt that the child seemed to be a little strange after returning from the mission on Jingxi Road.
"It should be because I told him before that he remembered this fish species." Yu Jiatang gave a reason casually.
Chen Jin just felt confused and asked casually, and didn't think about going to the bottom of it. After hearing Da Mao's answer, she didn't say any more, and didn't ask this question again.
When approaching Caishi Lake, Wen Tong, who had not made much noise in the car, suddenly said: "Stop for a moment. Don't go forward."
Yu Jiatang poked his head out to look outside the car: "Except for a few half-dead mutated plants, there seems to be nothing else around here?"
Wen Tong shook his head: "I heard some strange sounds."
After hearing this, Yu Jiatang quickly turned up his hearing attribute, but the strange thing was that he didn't hear anything, and there wasn't even a bug screaming around.
The atmosphere in the car instantly became tense.
After a while, everyone still didn't hear a sound. Chen Jing couldn't bear the tense atmosphere, and said: "I heard that there are colored stones that symbolize eternity in the colored stone lake. For the person you like, you can always be with him.”
Chen Jin squinted at him: "Since when did you pay attention to these boring legends?" Didn't expect the younger brother, who looks like a strong man, has a girlish heart
Chen Jing immediately dismissed the blame: "This is what the cat team told me when I was free."
Yu Jiatang opened his mouth wide. He couldn't believe that Chen Jing had dumped such a heavy burden on himself. Seeing that he couldn't explain it, he could only continue to throw the blame quickly: "I don't know about Caishi Lake either. I heard about it from Xiao Mao."
Xiao Mao: "???"
