Chapter 291: No Fish? I’ll Feed Them With My Own Body

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The attitude of the old man had changed drastically. Qin Ruo did not know was it his persistence that had touched the old man’s heart or that the old man could no longer restrain the urge of telling them after seeing the whole affair. Not only did the old man tell them the details of the Living God’s Tomb and the Deathfiend Demonfish, but he had also told them an amazing secret!

Usually, champions who carried “Divinity” within their bodies were particularly sensitive to the Divinity around them. They could sense the existence of Divinity within a hundred-meter range.

Since he had accidentally entered the second level of the Graveyard to the Gods and realized that he had found Divinity in the lake, he randomly made a rough fishing rod and some roasts, trying to get the Deathfiend Demonfish in the lake. For a Demigod-tier champion, Divinity was of little value. However, after the fall of the gods, the number of Demigod-tier champions in the Mythical Continent had greatly reduced. Only a few ascended to that tier after years of waiting. Hence, as a champion with legendary power, he would naturally want to take part in the effort to make his own faction flourish.

Although Divinity was incapable of enhancing the power of the players in his own faction, Angelic Wings would be formed after fusion. It was considered as invisible strength.

It was a coincidence that the old man had clearly felt the existence of Divinity in the Deathfiend Demonfish after Qin Ruo and his party reached the lakeside. With his acute sense, he had found that one among these Deathfiend Demonfish carried Divinity.

This Deathfiend Demonfish must have swallowed a champion who was above Demigod tier and accidentally fell into the lake. The piece of Divinity was left undigested, held within this Deathfiend Demonfish. Otherwise, it could be Divinity formed from within the creature, from mutation.

However, these were not important. Presently, the main thing was to get this Deathfiend Demonfish with Divinity out of the lake. Only then, the old man could absolutely certain of getting the piece of Divinity.

But what puzzled him was…he could do nothing with these devious Tier 6 monsters. They never got hooked and still swam leisurely as if playing around in the lake.

After hearing the old man’s words, Qin Ruo’s spirit was fired up. Blazing with excitement, he could not regain his composure for a long time. All these had come way too fast, faster than he expected. It was the Divinity that he longed for and was unable to get in the Emerald Plain. The old man’s words had awakened his spirit and brought him new hope. This was great!

He could actually get Divinity from the Deathfiend Demonfish, without even venturing into the

fifth level of the Graveyard of the Gods.

Just as Qin Ruo was thrilled with desire, Dark Cyclone and the other five looked nervously at the lucky Deathfiend Demonfish that the old man had pointed at. Their eyes were red, growing increasingly tense.

As a matter of fact, Divinity was only useful for a Tier 5 pro. For a Tier 4 player, Divinity was not as good as Dark Gold equipment. Yet, since the opening of the Graveyard of the Gods, players from various Clans were eager to get Divinity and had widely spread the news in the game and forum that they would exchange it for a set of Dark Gold equipment or a payment amounting to at least two million gold coins.

The price of Divinity was close to the price of a Legendary piece of equipment.

In reality, it was worth at least four million RMB. This price is enough to make any player go crazy!

After the excitement, the six people regained their composure as they knew that it was nearly impossible to complete this quest.

Not only was Qin Ruo incapable of getting the Deathfiend Demonfish with their attack power as a Tier 6 monster matching that of a Tier 5 Miniboss, but even the Tier 6 Demigod old man was no match for them. As such, this quest was beyond the capabilities of Tier 4 players.

Yet, how could they bear to just walk away empty-handed?

Dark Cyclone was the first one who refused to yield. He ran to the old man and kept bugging him for a solution. The old man was annoyed and had finally agreed. As long as they get the Deathfiend Demonfish off the lake, he would take care of the rest. There would be a reward after completing this quest. However, unless they got this done by themselves, the reward was naturally not Divinity.

“Captain, should we try?”

Dark Cyclone and the party had actually come out with various clumsy and poor ideas. For instance, catching the Deathfiend Demonfish with a tree branch or whipping it with their warrior skills. Look at their exciting faces, Qin Ruo could not help but merely shake his head.

“Well, I have tried my methods, you guys go ahead.”

Feeling disheartened, Qin Ruo moved few meters back.

Just as Qin Ruo retreated, a loud voice sounded. Once Dark Cyclone and the party walked near the lakeside, the Deathfiend Demonfish had vanished without a trace.

“Eh!” “Where are the Deathfiend Demonfish?”

“Crap! What is going on? They’ve disappeared. Will they be back again?”

“Shit! Dark Cyclone, you have scared the Deathfiend Demonfish away!”

“F*ck! It’s your IQ that had chased them away. Those fish were not even scared of a Demigod-tier champion. A Tier 4 Berserker was capable of scaring off Tier 6 monsters?”

The loud exclamations had attracted the old man’s attention. At the same time, Qin Ruo turned his head and looked at them, stopping in his tracks. Burning with curiosity, the old man and Qin Ruo walked toward the party.

“Ah!”

“They are back! They are here!”

A dozen Deathfiend Demonfish were back in sight. Seeing this, Dark Cyclone and the party beamed with happiness.

“Hurry up! Get ready!”

“Look! Old man! Which is the one that carries Divinity?”

In a little frenzy, no one noticed Qin Ruo that had quickly retreated. His expression was filled with astonishment.

“Eh?”

“They disappeared again?”

“F*ck! They are toying with us, bullying Tier 4 players. Eh? They are here again, Dark Cyclone, go get it!”

“That’s bullshit. Do you even know which one?”

“Shit, get the big one.”

“They are almost the same size!”

“They are gone! Again!”

“F*ck! Old man! Which one! Eh? Old man…?”

It was a great struggle. Just as the few people could finally see the Deathfiend Demonfish back in sight, they quickly asked the old man point out the Deathfiend Demonfish with Divinity. In surprise, they turned their heads only to see the old man’s mouth agape as his gaze fell on Qin Ruo who stood far behind them.

“Eh?” They turned around at the same time, only to see their captain who was moving back and forth twenty meters away. His face beamed with rapturous delight yet none knew why.

“Hey, what’s wrong with our captain?”

“How would I know?”

Seeing Qin Ruo’s movements were increasing in speed, Dark Cyclone asked the person by his side who was also looking at Qin Ruo in bewilderment. However, he did not know that the movement of the Deathfiend Demonfish was closely related to Qin Ruo’s. This was surprising!

Qin Ruo had accidentally found out and was certain that the Deathfiend Demonfish was affected by his movements from thirty meters away. It was true that he was the reason the Deathfiend Demonfish came to the surface. He could no longer contain his excitement and kept moving back and forth, radiant with joy.

Before he could figure it out, a black shadow flashed across and the old man’s excited face appeared before his eyes.

“It’s so fast!”

Qin Ruo was shocked but he was more certain now. There must be a reason that he could affect the Deathfiend Demonfish’s movements, just that he had not figured it out.

‘By the way, the old man did mention that these Deathfiend Demonfish are very fond of roast… Could it be that thing my bag?’

“You brought roast, didn’t you? Take it out!” The old man’s words had confirmed his guess. Just as Qin Ruo subconsciously stretched his arm to reach the Special Roasted Snails in his bag, he suddenly paused and gave the NPC whose face was red with excitement a puzzled look.

“The roast is in my bag. The Deathfiend Demonfish can actually smell it?”

“Crap! Roast made by the God Chef is the food that these Deathfiend Demonfish like the most. They could even smell it even if you ate it ten days ago. Only this kind of roast is capable of getting them out. Oh no…you actually own this kind of roast. You got it from the Graveyard of the Gods didn’t you?”

A hint of confusion could be seen on the old man’s face. Without thinking further, his eyes reddened as he hustled Qin Ruo to get the roast out.

“Wait! With this roast, the Deathfiend Demonfish will come out for sure?”

“Damn! They couldn’t even resist the smell of the roast. If I couldn’t get the Deathfiend Demonfish with this roast on my Darksteel hook, then I will… I will jump into the lake!”

“Ohhh…” Qin Ruo merely drawled with a smile after hearing the old man’s “truthful” promise.

“That means I am getting Divinity for sure? Can I know the reward in advance?”
