302: A fisherman who is strong all his life

After translating the Octopus's words meticulously, the Little Black Cat meowed anxiously, "Human, cat doesn't like Octopus. Let's make it into teppanyaki."

As soon as the Little Black Cat finished speaking, the mutated Blue-Ringed Octopus instantly buried itself in the sand.

Seeing this, Yang Dian couldn't help but laugh, "I'll go to the market later and buy you some Octopus for teppanyaki."

"As for this Blue-Ringed Octopus..."

At this point, Yang Dian looked at the Octopus, which had secretly extended a tentacle from the sand and was observing him with the eyes on its tentacle, and said, "It won't do. It's still useful."

"Of course, if it dares to lie to us, we'll chop off its tentacles and eat them as teppanyaki."

The Little Black Cat blinked, "Why only chop off its tentacles?"

"Because an Octopus's tentacles can regenerate. Once its tentacles grow back, we can chop them off again."

"Whenever we're in a bad mood, we'll chop off its tentacles and eat them as teppanyaki."

As Yang Dian and the Little Black Cat exchanged questions and answers, the Octopus, lying in the sand, raised two tentacles in a gesture of surrender.

The Little Black Cat then meowed, "Human, the bad guy says it won't lie to anyone."

"Human, the bad guy also says it mutated where it was hooked by other people, and grew many eyes."

Yang Dian was stunned, "Hooked?"

The Little Black Cat nodded, "Human, the bad guy says one day it was catching crabs in the sea to eat, and didn't know when a hook appeared and caught its tentacle, pulling it to the surface of the sea."

Yang Dian was amused, "So it was hooked. Zhao Tian, that Angler, said he caught it."

The Little Black Cat didn't respond, only rubbed its head against Yang Dian's chest, then nestled in his arms, purring softly.

Apparently, the anger it felt after seeing the mutated Octopus had consumed a lot of its Mental Energy.

Reaching out to pet the Little Black Cat twice more, Yang Dian then looked at Professor Shen Fei, "Professor, did you hear what the Little Black Cat just said?"

Professor Shen Fei clapped his hands together, then spread them, "What your cat says, one needs a certain level of Mental Energy to hear."

"Evidently, my Mental Energy hasn't reached that intensity."

Yang Dian said seriously, "So, Professor, you really need to Cultivate Martial Arts seriously."

"For example, right now, you can't hear what the Little Black Cat is saying."

"If you could hear it speak, couldn't you communicate with other Mutants through it, and understand the physical condition of Mutants more intuitively?"

"Besides that, Mutants are also becoming more numerous and stronger."

"If I were to catch some Mutants with strong radiation abilities in the future, if one's strength hasn't reached a certain level, one might not even be able to get close, let alone dissect them personally."

"Even just for the convenience of future research, you should pick up Martial Arts again."

Professor Shen Fei waved his hand, "I understand, but practicing Martial Arts isn't urgent."

"Time is tight, and the task is heavy, we need to maximize time efficiency."

"Aren't you working on something called the 【shanhe sheji tu】(the map of mountains and rivers)?"

"Once you've finished the 【shanhe sheji tu】(the map of mountains and rivers), I'll set aside some time to Cultivate."

"You yourself said that Cultivating Martial Arts then would have a multiplier effect."

At this point, he patted Yang Dian's shoulder again, "Speaking of which, not only do I have to work hard, but you also have to put in effort."

"Many researchers who want to Cultivate but can't spare a lot of time are waiting for your territory map."

Yang Dian was a little helpless, "The territory map is a Divine Artifact of Huaxia, I alone can't decide, the whole country needs to work together..."

After chatting with Professor Shen Fei for a few more sentences, Yang Dian bid farewell to Professor Shen Fei.

Walking out of the Research Institute building, Yang Dian took out his phone again and called the Angler.

After three consecutive attempts to call without connecting, Yang Dian finally chose to open a box, "Zero, help me locate Zhao Tian."

As he spoke, a beam of light shot from the wristband on Yang Dian's hand, and a map unfolded before Yang Dian.

He glanced at the blue light dot representing his location, then looked at the yellow light dot representing Zhao Tian's location.

Then Yang Dian scratched his head.

"This Angler really isn't afraid of death? He ran to the sea to fish again."

As he lamented, his phone began to vibrate.

He opened it and saw, wasn't it the Angler returning his call?

"Hello? Liang Zai? What's up with the call? I haven't caught any mutated things recently, oh~"

Hearing the address 'Liang Zai', Yang Dian couldn't help but smile, "I'm not asking if Brother Zhao caught any Mutant creatures, I want to ask where you originally hooked that mutated Blue-Ringed Octopus."

"Mutated Blue-Ringed Octopus?"

"Hook?"

"Oh no, it wasn't hooked, I caught it myself~ How could it be hooked!"

"Let me think where I caught it."

"Got it!"

"About 10 nautical miles east of Sanya Shidao, I caught it with my own hands, it wasn't hooked!"

Yang Dian smiled and didn't argue with Zhao Tian, "Alright, it was Brother Zhao who caught it, thank you, Brother Zhao."

"Why be polite? I'm not talking anymore, I'm fishing."

"Before, I was afraid of Mutants in the sea, so I didn't dare to go out fishing."

"Today, I finally managed to arrange to fish with an Awakened with district-level strength, I have to fish to my heart's content."

"Heh, I found that Awakened are just like that, what if they are strong? They still have to strike out."

As soon as Zhao Tian's voice fell, a few cursing sounds vaguely came from the phone.

Yang Dian, who was about to hang up, couldn't help but smile.

"Alright, then Brother Zhao, have a happy fishing trip. If you encounter a big guy, call me, and I promise to arrive as soon as possible."

"Alright, if I encounter a big guy..."

"Hey hey hey, no more talking, I've got a fish!"

As soon as Zhao Tian's voice fell, Yang Dian heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, followed by Zhao Tian's shout, "Give me a hand, I've caught a big one!"

"This Angler."

Hanging up the phone and shaking his head, Yang Dian then opened his phone and bought a plane ticket to Hainan.

Yang Dian was not a machine, only knowing Cultivation and missions.

In the absence of an emergency, he preferred to travel on foot, or in the way ordinary people travel.

Just like when he was Cultivating 'Iron Shirt' before, there were clearly more efficient Cultivation methods.

But he preferred to go to the foot bath city and let the technician help him improve his Cultivation.

The good things in life are still to be enjoyed.

"I just don't know what surprises await me there..."
