After fishing for a while, Chen Lin frowned.
He found that his luck had turned worse. Not only did he not catch any treasure chests, he didn't even catch any ordinary fish or shrimp. Instead, the old man next to him kept fishing and had a good catch.
You have to know that he was wearing the gloves of luck. Although he did not actively increase the output of the power of luck, the effect of the gloves of luck absorbing luck on their own was still there. Even if he could not catch the treasure chest, he should not be able to catch even a fish.
After thinking for a while and finding no solution, Chen Lin could only continue fishing.
If he puts away the rod without catching anything, he will have to pay a penalty of one magic coin. Now he only has one magic coin left, and if he uses it up, he won't be able to pay for the next fishing trip.
Time passed little by little, and Chen Lin felt that he could not delay any longer, so he began to actively increase the output of the power of luck.
But I didn't use all my strength like last time, but increased it bit by bit.
Suddenly, his fishing rod sank.
Chen Lin's face lit up with joy and he immediately lifted up the fishing rod, only to find that it was just a colorful shrimp.
He frowned, feeling something was wrong.
Even though I put so much energy into using up my luck, I only managed to catch one shrimp. This is a huge difference from last time.
After thinking about it, he picked up the fishing rod and planned to change his position.
At this moment, the old man raised his fishing rod and caught a golden treasure chest!
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad, this place is indeed the place of luck for this old man, hahaha..."
The old man laughed loudly, grabbed all the items in his hands, and then disappeared.
Chen Lin's expression changed and he became suspicious.
He suddenly realized that the old man had caught treasure chests twice when he was fishing with him, and every time his luck got bad and he couldn't catch anything, it was because he was fishing next to the other man.
Especially the last time, I didn't catch anything by being close to the opponent and even paid a penalty of one magic coin, but after leaving the opponent and going to the edge, I caught fish again and again.
At that time, he did not have any doubts and thought it was just because of the location. Now it seems that it is very likely that the old man used some means to suck away his luck!
Of course, this is just speculation and it is impossible to be sure whether it is true or not.
Thinking of this, he simply decided not to change places and continued fishing in the original place to see if his luck would get better after the other party left.
Throw the fishing rod out again.
In less than ten breaths, the fishing rod sank and a huge fish weighing ten kilograms was caught!
Chen Lin's face turned pale immediately. As expected, his luck improved after the old man left.
Next, he fished in one fish after another as if he had found a fish nest.
Chen Lin's expression became more and more ugly. He simply couldn't believe that the old man was fine.
"Hey, why are you so angry after catching the fish? Are you dissatisfied with the size of the fish? If you are dissatisfied, you can give it to me!"
Just as Chen Lin caught another fish weighing about five kilograms, a strange voice suddenly sounded beside him.
The unique rules of the demon world allow the language of all creatures to be understood by other creatures, but there are still differences in the tones, and you can tell by the accent that they are not human.
Sure enough, when he looked back, he found that it was a big cat, but it only had a cat's head, and its body was a miniature human shape.
The other person was looking at the pile of fish he had caught and kept licking his lips.
"Want to eat? I can give you one."
Chen Lin handed the newly caught fish to the other party and spoke.
This cat-headed monster was the one that had stayed the longest among the group of monsters that came here to try their luck after the old man fished out the fortune treasure chest last time. Since there was no aura of the demon world emanating from it, it should be an outsider like him.
He didn't want to have contact with this kind of monster before, but now he has become proactive.
"Really? Thank you very much, but why are you so nice to me? Do you want to pursue me?"
The cat-headed monster grabbed the fish and bit it while looking at Chen Lin with unclear eyes.
Chen Lin hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, absolutely not. I just think that we are all fishermen and should help each other."
The cat-headed monster swallowed the whole fish in two or three bites, looked at the pile of fish again, and said, "Then you can help me to the end, and give me another one so that I can eat enough?"
"good!"
Without any hesitation, Chen Lin picked up another bigger fish and gave it to the other party.
The cat-headed monster didn't hesitate and continued to eat with relish.
Finally, it burped and said, "You are so kind to me, and you don't care about my body. You even said that we should help each other. What can I do for you?"
Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "There is indeed something I want to consult you about. Since you can come here, I believe you must have a deep understanding of the demon world. I want to ask..."
He briefly explained the situation of the Silver Fairy to the other party, and then said: "I wonder if you have encountered this kind of situation before, do you have a solution?"
"Is it just a frog? Are there any other creatures?"
The cat-headed monster sat casually on the ground and spoke.
Chen Lin was a little confused, not knowing why the other party would pay attention to this point, but he still replied: "No, only the frog."
Hearing this, the cat-headed monster patted the stains on his hands and said, "It's easy. Help me fish for a fortune treasure chest, and I'll help you rescue the person!"
Chen Lin was stunned and looked at the other person deeply.
Judging from the other person's expression, it seemed that this was just a trivial matter, but he didn't know where the other person came from and couldn't trust him.
Seeing Chen Lin's skeptical look, the cat-headed monster glanced at Chen Lin and said, "Why, you don't trust me? Do you not trust my character or my ability?"
Chen Lin was silent for a moment, then said frankly, "To be honest, it's a little bit of both, but since you're here, why don't you go fishing yourself?"
There is no one to maintain order in the Demon Realm. No matter how anxious he is, he can't just trust the other party. Besides, the fortune chest may contain treasures to rescue the Silver Fairy, which he also needs.
Hearing Chen Lin's words, the cat-headed monster said depressedly: "If I can catch it, do I need to make a deal with you? That old man ran away quickly just now, otherwise I would have found him."
Just as he said this, he saw several figures on both sides of the lake approaching quickly, all of them looking like they were investigating.
Chen Lin took a look and found that it was the same batch as last time, with all kinds of shapes and sizes. It was obvious that they had heard that there was another fortune treasure chest here and came to join in the fun.
"Hey, they haven't left yet? Human kid, did you fish up the fortune chest? Tell me, what conditions do you need to trade?"
A huge figure with only one eye and covered with black hair came in front of Chen Lin and spoke in a voice as loud as a bell.
The cat-headed monster's eyes suddenly narrowed, and a very strange aura emanated from it.
"One-Eye, the treasure chest was fished out by that old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm. He ran away a long time ago, so there's no need for you to make a fuss here."
The one-eyed man glanced at the cat-headed monster, a fearful look on his face, and said, "So it's that old guy. He must have absorbed enough luck and power from somewhere else and came here to take advantage of others. But after this, the toad will regard him as a thorn in his side. I guess he won't dare to come again for a while."
After saying that, he walked aside angrily, sat down and started fishing.
While swinging the fishing rod, he muttered loudly, "Why don't I have the ability to absorb other people's luck? I almost lost all my pants in this gambling lake, and I didn't even see the corner of the luck treasure chest."
Hearing the conversation between the two monsters, Chen Lin's face gradually became gloomy.
The reason why he couldn't catch anything was really because of that old man. The other party actually had the ability to absorb other people's luck!
No wonder the other party would appear whenever he came over. He must have discovered that his luck was different from that of ordinary people. Moreover, the other party must have used his luck to catch the treasure chest twice, leaving him with nothing.
If it weren't for the other person, the two fortune chests would have belonged to him.
Chen Lin felt a surge of anger in his heart. He was cheated by that old man!
The funniest thing is that he actually wanted to establish a good relationship with the other party and use the other party's information channels to go to the Mountain and Sea Realm. If he did that, he would probably be cheated even more miserably.
"Why, did you find out that the old man cheated you? Let me tell you, you humans are the most deceitful. Just make a deal with me. I never cheat anyone."
As if knowing what Chen Lin was thinking, the cat-headed monster spoke at this time.
If it weren't for the old man's incident, Chen Lin might have believed the other party once in his current situation, but with the lessons learned from the previous incident, how could he still agree
Moreover, the other party obviously noticed that his luck power was abnormal, so he took the initiative to approach him.
Chen Lin even suspected that the cat-headed monster also had the ability to absorb people's luck, so he simply took his things and walked to the edge alone and continued fishing.
At the same time, control the energy of the silver light particles in your soul, so that you are always in a state of being about to be expelled. As long as you catch the fortune treasure chest, leave immediately.
After throwing the fishing rod out, he glanced at the cat-headed monster. The other party was still sitting there, neither fishing nor showing any intention of leaving.
Suddenly, the other party's voice rang in his ears.
"Among all the anglers in the entire gambling lake, no one has a level 4 guide except me. If you want to save people, there is no other way except to find me. You have to think carefully, okay?"
Chen Lin's expression changed.
The cat-headed monster actually has a fourth-level pass, which means it is indeed capable of rescuing the Silver Fairy.
Although the old man stole his luck, the information he said was not necessarily false. He also said that the fourth-level pass has the ability to travel through time and space and can break through the exclusive scene of the frog.
Seeing that Chen Lin didn't say anything, the cat-headed monster suddenly stood up and walked in front of him, pulled out a whisker from its mouth, and said, "Take this thing. If you want me to help save people, crush it next to the scene you mentioned. But you have to remember that I only want the fortune treasure chest as a reward. If you summon me over but can't take out the treasure chest, then I can only take your life!"
After saying that, the other person twisted his body and walked away along the lake.
