Chapter 105: Chapter 102: The Giant Catfish

"It's a catfish! Such a big catfish must have taken over a decade to grow!"

Indeed, it was a giant catfish with a girth even thicker than a bowl's edge.

This catfish was about half a meter long with dark brown skin. It lacked scales on its slippery body, had two barbels on its head, and whiskers around its mouth.

Catfish possess tree-like gill rakers that help with breathing, allowing them to use oxygen directly from the air. Therefore, they have a strong tolerance to low oxygen levels. As long as their skin remained moist, they could be dragged onto land and survive for a short time without dying.

After being dragged ashore, the catfish's mouth slightly gaped, its lower jaw jutted out, and its upper jaw revealed a row of fine, sharp, pear-like teeth.

"This must be a giant catfish, not a native species. Our local catfish do not grow this big!"
