Day by day in the infinite game
263. Barnacle Cleaner
After the cooperation matters between various countries were gradually implemented and carried out in an orderly manner, the Jiaolong carried the players to continue their marine scientific research mission.
The originally lively atmosphere on the high seas returned to its former calm as ships from various countries left.
This time, no innocent life was involved in the propeller of the ship and perished. The marine animals that protected the lives of fellow mariners were given material rewards by octopuses and hawksbill turtles on behalf of the players.
Only the last two of the deformed little sharks are still alive. Due to the physical mutilation and pain they were born with, their temperaments are very violent and ferocious.
Even so, the few players who took care of it did not give up, and still took good care of them, observing and recording their physical conditions.
…
"Qinqin, cough cough, my ocean friends heard that you humans have a skill that specializes in removing barnacles. No, they all came to me and lined up to sign up."
After the hawksbill turtle finished speaking sheepishly, a marine animal lined up behind him couldn't wait to reveal its head.
It's a leatherback turtle that's even bigger than the lid of a large iron farm pot.
"This can be considered a distant relative of mine, but it is quite old and can be considered an ancestor-level turtle." the hawksbill turtle introduced.
It originally just happened to meet this leatherback turtle whose shell was covered with barnacles. After seeing its discomfort and difficulties, it decided to help it thinking that it could contact humans for help. However, it encountered obstacles along the way.
More and more marine animals showed up to show sympathy for each other, and they even lined up spontaneously and orderly.
"Hey, this is a real news. Hahaha." Lan Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud. She had just seen a piece of news before, saying that a whale covered with barnacles took the initiative to search for it.
Humans helped clean up, and the copy that was included at the time was "Marine animals all know that humans are good at cleaning barnacles, and this news has spread in the ocean."
"Come on, roll up your sleeves. It's rare for us to encounter friends from the ocean asking for help. We must provide adequate service." Lao Tian said excitedly.
The faces of the players who heard the news looked eager to give it a try.
Even the few foreign players who stayed on the Jiaolong to take care of the deformed little shark looked over with shocked and excited faces.
Soon, starting with leatherback turtles, the public welfare activity of "removing useless parasitic tissues for marine animals" began.
"It is said that barnacles are a very delicious and rare seafood. Let's collect them first and try them later. Don't waste it."
Tang Qinqin placed the baskets on the deck and waited for the harvest.
It is not easy to remove the barnacles that are almost all over the heads and backs of marine animals. They have strong adsorption force and cling tightly to the carapace and skin of marine animals and refuse to let go.
However, for human players whose per capita physical fitness has obviously been improved and strengthened, this is just a matter of a little effort.
As the marine animals who had completed the removal of parasitic tissue from their bodies and enjoyed a wave of body massage left reluctantly one by one, more and more marine animals came all the way after hearing the news.
Seeing that the animals queuing up in the ocean had formed an endless line, the busy Dragon Dragon players had to urgently contact new partners from various countries.
However, since this is not a game mission and there is no generous game reward, not many people come.
Takahashi and his teammates were working seriously at first, but when he heard that the little man didn't plan to come because there was no benefit, his "morale" gradually disappeared and he started to act awkwardly.
The marine animals he dealt with endured it again and again, and when they couldn't bear it anymore, they sent a "report" through the hawksbill turtle, and he and his teammates were taken out and received a harsh criticism and education.
Takahashi lost all face, his expression was impatient, and his rolling eyes meant that he secretly had bad ideas again.
…
A large whale that was almost as big as the Jiaolong plunged into the sea happily. The barnacles on its skin that were in the way were removed, and it felt relaxed and comfortable all over.
It sang cheerfully and gradually moved away, its song was empty and distant.
On a whaling ship.
Several whale hunters were chatting in high spirits.
The one with the most arrogant expression was a little man with a bad reputation.
At this time, he was holding a sharp harpoon with a cold light in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the movement of the sea.
"I said, are there really whales here? Are you mistaken?" Someone came over and asked.
"Can't you wait for so long? No wonder you can't do big things!" The little man sounded arrogant and snorted contemptuously.
"Haha, okay, then let's continue waiting. Don't let the brothers go all the way in vain. It's a thankless trip!" The person who came said this and turned around to leave.
When the little man saw him leaving, he took out his phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Hey, brother Gao, is your news reliable? Where is it? Okay. Don't worry, I won't be able to lose to you after it's done."
He put down the phone and felt slightly at peace.
Soon, the sonar device installed on the whaling ship captured a figure getting closer and closer. According to data analysis, it was a huge marine creature.
Isn't this the goal of their trip?
The corners of the little man's mouth rose when he heard the news, as if he had seen the "harvest" scene for a while.
The whale swimming freely in the ocean felt a little uncomfortable and dizzy.
It found that it began to have difficulty identifying its direction, and the sound waves it emitted were seriously interfered with.
The good mood disappeared, and it looked around in the sea in a panic, trying to find a familiar route.
It had already been positioned by the whaling ship, but it didn't know that it was being targeted by the greedy devil.
…
Takahashi looked at the sea in the distance with pleasure.
After he saw many whales lining up in the sea, a greedy thought came to his mind.
Since you have "thrown yourself into a trap" on your own, I have to accept your kindness, right?
What kind of public welfare assistance and what kind of ocean friends are just low-level creatures that can be exploited by others. They are just tools that can make him profit and make him rich.
When his elder brother succeeds, his benefits will be indispensable.
And this group of stupid and busy people in front of us are wasting time and effort. What will they get in the end?
In the distant ocean, a mournful cry suddenly sounded.
The disoriented whale bumped headlong into the whaling boat without any precautions. While it was dizzy, its skin was cut by the propeller, and the deep wounds opened up.
The man who had been waiting for it for a long time quickly dropped the fishing net and quickly pulled the net before it could react.
"Hahaha, good luck today, this is it. It saves me so much trouble." Without even using the harpoon, a stupid whale took the bait. Not bad, not bad.
The little man smiled with a lewd expression.
The wound of the whale pulled up by the fishing net was still bleeding. The whole whale could not move and struggled very hard.
The bloody smell in the seawater spread quickly.
The nearby marine animals saw this and fled in a hurry, and the news quickly spread.
After hearing the news, the leisurely foraging octopus quickly sent a message to the players on the Jiaolong.
"Humans, come and help. A whale has been hunted. The location is..."
