149: Fishing rods can also be used as weapons

Surfing all night.

Early the next morning, as the first rays of sunlight spilled onto the sea surface, Bai Ye finished his surfing and returned to the roof of the infinite.

After a night of sailing, they had ventured deep into the Silent Windless Zone, one step closer to the Storm Sea Eye.

Song San, sporting two dark circles under his eyes, lay listlessly on the roof of the vehicle, still holding that empty bucket.

"Brother, are we still going surfing today?"

Song San raised his hand and asked listlessly.

"No more surfing, we have real work to do today."

Bai Ye shook his head and picked up his fishing rod again.

Except for the Extraordinary Level fish he caught at the very beginning, he had personally swung up all the remaining sharks one by one.

That's not right, is it?

How is this any different from electrofishing, which anglers hate the most?

Today, he had to catch an Elite Rank fish with his own hands!

Just as Bai Ye was preparing to cast his line into the sea, the calm surface suddenly exploded, and a column of water shot up into the sky.

"Splash!"

A horse-shaped Demonic Beast, over ten meters in size and sky-blue in color, broke through the water.

It had a spiral horn on its head, its body was covered in flowing, water-like scales, and its four hooves stepped on the waves as it hovered above the sea surface.

A pair of angry eyes stared fixedly at the infinite.

【Name】: Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse

【attribute】: Water

【Rank】: Elite Advanced

【Aptitude】: Rare Advanced

【Introduction】: A short-tempered marine Demonic Beast with an extremely strong sense of territory. It is highly sensitive to sound and hates any creature that makes noise within its territory.

"Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse!"

Song San gasped, his sleepiness vanishing without a trace.

He gripped the fishing rod in his hand tightly, looking at the horse with burning eyes.

To actually encounter an Elite Advanced in the Silent Windless Zone, how lucky!

Most of the Tier 4s in this sea area only stayed in the Silent Windless Zone to search for Elite Advanced Demonic Beasts.

"Brother Bai, hurry and use your strongest Demonic Beast to catch it."

The Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse had evidently been woken up by the sound of the infinite's engine running; it let out a cry towards the sky, and the horn on its head lit up with a dazzling blue light.

In contrast, Bai Ye watched the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse with great interest.

Judging by the name, he originally thought it would be similar to a normal seahorse, but it really was a horse, or rather, a unicorn.

A highly compressed water cannon shot out from the horn, firing towards the cockpit of the infinite at a speed difficult for the human eye to track.

Song San felt that if this hit, even if the infinite didn't sink, the cockpit would be ruined.

But he trusted Bai Ye now; he would absolutely not let such a thing happen.

Just as he thought, Bai Ye maintained his fishing posture.

With a flick of his wrist, the extremely hard deep sea Dragon Tendon Wood fishing rod actually bent, and the Vine Whip at the tip of the rod traced an afterimage in the air.

"Crack!"

The fishing rod whipped through the air with a sonic boom.

It struck the water column, and the column was actually shattered in mid-air by the thin Vine Whip, turning into a sky full of water mist.

"Hiss!"

The Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse was also struck by the Vine Whip used as fishing line; it retreated a few steps in pain and angrily shook its head.

A human? Or some other Demonic Beast in human skin?

Forget it, it couldn't be bothered to think that much.

Its four hooves stomped hard on the sea surface, and hundreds of water currents transformed into nearly twenty-meter-long blades, slashing towards Bai Ye.

"Your skin is quite thick, then I guess I'll just have to whip you a few more times."

Bai Ye frowned, his wrist turned again, and the fishing rod turned into a brown phantom in his hand.

"Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!"

A series of dense whipping sounds rang out.

The water blades were all shattered in mid-air.

After shattering the water blades, the seemingly flexible Vine Whip lost none of its momentum, crossing a distance of several tens of meters and striking hard against the face of the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse.

"Hiss!!!"

The Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse hadn't reacted at all; it let out a shrill cry, and a bloody mark appeared on its face.

The entire horse was sent flying backward by the immense force.

It tumbled several times in the air before crashing heavily back into the sea, splashing up insignificant waves.

A few minutes later, it poked its head out of the water, its horse eyes filled with terror and grievance, even welling up with a few tears.

It couldn't understand; it was clearly the one who had been woken up, so why was it the one who got beaten up?

"If you cry out again, I'll roast you and eat you."

Bai Ye made a gesture as if to cast again, and the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse shuddered all over from fear, immediately retracting its head back into the water.

Song San watched from behind, dumbfounded.

When did he perform Body Integration with the Ghost Orchid?

And what kind of Divine Artifact is this fishing rod?

At the same time, in Bai Ye's Live Stream Room, a few early-rising viewers also saw this scene.

"That fishing rod doesn't seem ordinary."

"Wait, the material of that fishing rod, I think I've seen it somewhere..."

A viewer with the ID "Lone Boat Angler" posted a line of text in the bullet comments.

Another viewer with the ID "King of Sea Kings" also chimed in:

"That's right, I saw it before at 'Sea God's Halberd'. If I had known it was this useful, I should have bought it. It was only 88 million, what a huge loss!"

Many local anglers beat their chests and stamped their feet, full of regret.

Of course, they didn't know that even if they had bought this fishing rod, without Bai Ye's monstrous physical fitness, they wouldn't have been able to unleash its effects at all.

It would be no different from fishing with a piece of rebar.

Bai Ye couldn't see the bullet comments in the Live Stream Room; this time, he gently flicked the fishing rod.

He scooped up the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse, which was still shivering in the water, and threw it directly onto the deep sea behind.

It was beaten with a fishing rod and caught with a fishing line, so why wouldn't it count as legitimate fishing?

"From now on, you are responsible for watering these sharks to keep them moist. If even one dies, I will stew you."

Bai Ye pointed at the pile of sharks and ordered the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse.

The Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse nodded aggrievedly.

It didn't dare to resist, fearing it would be given another hundred lashes.

It could only obediently open its mouth, spray out several gentle streams of water, and start "rehydrating" the sharks that were about to dry out.

Song San watched from behind, dumbfounded.

Catching an Elite Advanced Demonic Beast to be a water sprinkler?

That's amazing!

With the Sky-Blue Storm Seahorse as free labor, Song San could finally catch his breath.

He collapsed on the roof of the infinite, watching Bai Ye set up his fishing rod leisurely again, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Just as Bai Ye was preparing to catch a few more similar "fish", the alarm System of the infinite suddenly sounded.

"Commander, a large vessel has been detected approaching at high speed from the rear right."

Bai Ye frowned and turned back to see a huge shadow on the distant horizon, breaking through the waves and approaching at an astonishing speed.

As the distance closed, the silhouette of that shadow became increasingly clear.

It was a giant warship whose size was even a bit larger than the Tiangong Group's "tiangong divine ark".

Its appearance resembled a ferocious ancient giant whale, and the hull was covered in thick alloy armor.

There were actually two giant energy main guns on the bow of the ship.

A pirate flag painted with a one-eyed skull and crossed scimitars fluttered high on the ship's mast.

Anyone who didn't know better would think pirates were attacking.

But that was just about right.
