章節 39: Heading Home! Expanding The Territory!
編輯: EndlessFantasy Translation
Guo Li was furious. F*ck, a crab dared to show off in front him? Mining ores was a small matter, but losing face was a big matter. He was ready to end this crab's life with the magic crossbow.
After the magic crossbow was activated, it instantly grew to its original size. The terrifying elemental fluctuations caused the surrounding temperature to drop sharply. Even the surface of the sea in the distance began to freeze up.
The giant pincer crab was so scared that its entire body started trembling. If this bolt had hit its body, it would be frozen into ice shards. It lowered its giant pincer and crawled on the ground in fear. It no longer displayed the same arrogance it did before.
"Master, I am willing to be your servant. Please show mercy and spare my life!"
The giant pincer crab leader begged for mercy in the beast language. It was actually a pretentious coward.
Guo Li then put away the elemental magic crossbow. Why did it have to behave so arrogantly in front of me just now?
Guo Li 'encouraged' it to sign a contract with him immediately. Soon, it had become one of Guo Li's many pets.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has signed a contract with the leader of the giant pincer crabs!]
[Powerful Pincers: The strength of your hands can tear through steel, and your punch can shatter granite!]
[Tyrannical Rampage: Your body can explode with an extremely terrifying level of strength. When you use this skill, you will be invincible for five seconds!]
After signing the contract with the giant pincer crab, Guo Li obtained the two abilities of the giant pincer crab, increasing his strength yet again. These abilities were very powerful!
After signing the contract with the giant pincer crab, Guo Li's first goal had been accomplished. Next, he wanted the giant pincer crab to summon its entire clan to sign a group contract.
If he had the giant pincer crabs mine the ores, it would greatly increase the production output. He would then have an endless stream of ores to his island, which could then be used for his construction and development projects.
Guo Li gave the giant pincer crab leader an order. It raised its pair of large pincers in its hand and waved them around continuously, making "ka ka ja" sounds.
The giant pincer crabs hiding in the water and around the island all appeared and gathered toward the giant pincer crab leader.
When the sailors saw a large number of giant pincer crabs appearing, they thought that they had poked the giant pincer crab's nest and hurriedly tried to avoid them. Giant pincer crabs were very fierce creatures. A sailor's finger had been broken by a giant pincer crab the other night.
Those giant pincer crabs gathered in front of the leader of the giant pincer crabs. Guo Li then signed a group contract with them. Those giant pincer crabs were now all Guo Li's pets. Guo Li then gave these crabs their first order, which was to mine the ores on the island, and cut those ores into the pieces the size of a square pillow.
After the giant pincer crabs received the order, they rushed to the mines like a swarm of bees. The ores that had rendered the barbarian slaves helpless were like tofu in front of these giant pincers, the ores were easily extracted and cut up according to Guo Li's instructions. They were placed neatly in a pile on the side.
With the addition of the giant pincer crabs, the efficiency of the mining work was greatly improved. Guo Li could also put his worries aside.
Since he had nothing to do, Guo Li continued to fish. Now that there were more workers, he needed to fish up more food to feed the additional mouths.
Fortunately, Guo Li liked and enjoyed fishing. The resources in the ocean were endless, so he could fish as much as he wanted without ever exhausting the resources.
By evening, Guo Li had already caught dozens of big fishes. He picked out a few that were particularly delicious and left the rest for his own people to eat. The fish were all boiled and distributed to the barbarian slaves who were working hard.
Those barbarian slaves had not eaten for the whole day day, and quickly wolfed down their food. Guo Li and the others had prepared sashimi as well as steamed sea fish. Cai Er also showed Guo Li what she was capable of by cooking up a mean boiled fish. Although there were not that many seasonings available, the boiled fish still tasted delicious and the fish meat was smooth and supple. Guo Li was very satisfied by both its taste and texture.
After Guo Li was full, he started thinking about another matter. The fishing boat could no longer be used. It was already broken, so how could these ores be transported back to his island?
After thinking for a while, Guo Li thought of a good idea. He summoned the sperm whale.
Since the island could be moved, the sperm whale could help to carry it along. This whole resource island could be moved over to his island.
The sperm whale rose to the surface of the water and spat out a huge water column out of its blowhole. Guo Li swam over to the sperm whale and told it about his plan. Its huge head seemed to bob up and down in the water a few times as it acknowledged Guo Li's plan.
The sperm whale swam under the resource island. It used its body to carry the resource island and set off in the direction that Guo Li had told it head toward.
The resource island was now slowly accelerating. It cut through the waves as it barreled forward.
When had those barbarian slaves ever witnessed such a scene? The devil must have used some demonic means to move the island across the sea. Those barbarian slaves were even more in awe of Guo Li now, to the point that they prostrated themselves on the ground in fear and kept uttering praises to him.
When Guo Li heard that, he shook his head and smiled faintly. This island was too heavy, and the sperm whale's physical strength was depleting very quickly. Guo Li was worried that it would be injured, so he asked the sharks to help as well, they pulled the resource island together across the sea.
Captain Jack looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment. This master of his was very powerful. He could order the creatures in the sea to do his bidding, and he could even make an entire island move.
Cai Er sat on the shore of the island, barefooted. She smiled happily and waved at Guo Li. "Guo Li, come and take a look. Our small island is moving."
Guo Li walked over to Cai Er's side. The two of them played in the water by the shore, and were very happy.
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed. They made many stops along the way. When the sharks and the sperm whale were tired, they would stop and rest. Guo Li would then have the god-grade mother krill produce an endless stream of krill to replenish the strength of the sperm whale and sharks. After they had rested enough, they continued to pull the island forward.
Just like that, after 'sailing' across the sea for two days, Guo Li and the others finally reached the vicinity of his island.
From afar, they could even see a lush island before them. The resource island was much smaller compared to Guo Li's island; perhaps only one-tenth of its size. However, the mineral resources it contained were inexhaustible.
Soon, the two islands merged together under Guo Li's command. They did not collide as expected, but rather merged together seamlessly. At the same time, an announcement appeared on the [World Chat] channel!
[Congratulations to [Heavenly Fishing] for successfully merging the Mineral Resource Island into his own island. His island's territory has been expanded by 15%!]
