Infinite Cafetaria

Chapter 34 Bait Fishing

 Although one more person has joined, the hunting process seems to be no different from before.

 It was still Boqi who took action in front, but there was one more spectator watching from behind.

Mai Mai stood next to Malu with a backpack on her back. Her backpack was so big that it made her look like a penguin, and she waddled when she walked.

“By the way, what is your telekinesis ability?” Ma Lu asked.

 “Electric field.”

 “Power plant?”

“Well, it’s this ‘field’,” Mai Mai used her fingers to write on Malu’s palm, but unfortunately Malu couldn’t understand it either.

“But before, Commander Li preferred to call me to join in the fun. Deputy Commander, you can also call me that.”

 “Join in the fun, why do you have such a nickname?”

“Because I basically have to rest for three or four days every time I use my telekinesis ability, so most of the time I just join in the fun.” Mai Mai said.

“That’s it,” Malu lowered his voice as he glanced at Boqi, who was fighting a striped sand boa not far away.

“I’m not a person who likes to gossip, but is there any story between you and the group leader? It feels like he’s a bit strict with you...how should I put it?”

Maimai blinked, "Maybe it's because I betrayed him."

"Huh?" Malu didn't expect to be able to eat such a huge melon, and said enthusiastically, "Tell me more."

 But things were a little different from what he thought, and there was a look of memory on Mai Mai's face.

"Shortly after that... incident happened, the Harper's situation became very bad. Poch tried hard to support the business left by his father, but he was still in school at the time and there wasn't much he could do. I hope the remaining people can give him some time.

“But I still announced my withdrawal from the group at that time, which made a very bad start. Many old people later left. This incident probably... hurt him a bit.”

Maimai smiled bitterly, "But I quit the group not because I don't trust him."

 “I know, you just want to realize your childhood dream of opening a perfume store.”

"Realizing my dream is one thing, but there are also other reasons. In short, the situation at that time was very chaotic, and there were various opinions. I was young and energetic at the time and made the final decision. But when I regretted it, It's too late.

"Honestly, I didn't expect that Pochi would agree to me joining his new hunting group, but that kid has always been like this. He will put the interests of the hunting group first. Even if he hates me in his heart, he will still lead me. I'm here to see you."

“I don’t think he really hates you.”

"What?"

Mai Mai's heart moved, but Malu didn't speak again. The battle on Boqi's side had ended, and he was walking towards here carrying a striped sand boa.

A notification also popped up on the traveler’s bracelet.

 Ma Lu clicked on it and saw three blessing options.

 【Intermediate treatment: Designate teammates to provide a special effect treatment】

 【Iron Weightlifter: Increase the endurance of the whole team by 10%】

　　【It’s too confusing: The earth telekinesis users in the team have a 15% chance of creating a quicksand trap nearby when releasing their abilities】

 Solidly blue. He originally wanted to choose [Electric Iron Master], but then he saw [Intermediate Healing] flash a few times, glowing purple, and then replaced by a new blessing.

 【Water can conduct electricity: Those with water telepathy abilities in the team have a 33% chance of generating electricity when releasing their abilities】

 [Water can conduct electricity] has the same effect as White Blessing [This water is charged], but the trigger probability has been increased from 3% to 33%.

 It can only be said that purple is purple, and this purple blessing was obtained for free after triggering the effect of the Heartbeat Lottery. This also shocked Ma Lu. He waved his hand and said, "Continue."

 After that, the three of them got some 1-star and 2-star ingredients one after another, but they failed to get the second purple blessing.

 In fact, their harvest is pretty good compared to other hunting groups.

 Hunting is like this. Ability and luck are indispensable. If you are unlucky, it is not surprising to return empty-handed. Even the top hunting groups cannot guarantee that they will hit something good every time.

In comparison, Malu has a scanning function, which can at least keep the minimum limit. However, since he hunted the Giant Claw Lord, Malu has become less optimistic about these low-star ingredients.

And before coming this time, he spent a lot of money to upgrade the collection bag, just to be able to pack more good goods back.

Bo Qi saw that Ma Lu had been looking around, so he thought for a while and unhooked a package from the motorcycle.

As soon as he opened the door, a stench hit his face. Malu was so shocked that he took two steps back, covered his nose and said,

 “This, what is this?!”

“The internal organs of Lord Giant Claw,” Pochi replied, “I took them back last time and found a big bucket to put them away.”

A look of surprise appeared on Mai Mai's face beside him, "Oh, are you trying to use bait fishing to attract prey to come to your door?"

"Well," Boqi nodded, "organs are the best material for bait fishing, especially the organs of big guys like the Giant Claw Lord. Although we can't eat them, they are fatally attractive to many prey. "

Mai Mai took over what he said, "However, if it is a fresh organ, the smell it can emit is limited, and it may only attract surrounding prey. But if it is fermented and corrupted, the smell can spread far away."

Ma Lu also understands, isn’t this just making a nest?

"However, it is impossible to control what bait fishing will eventually attract, and prey can easily appear in groups, gathering more and more, and even blocking our retreat. Compared with normal hunting, the risk will be higher. , we are now in a second-level hunting area," Mai Mai reminded, "Are you sure?"

 She said this to Boqi, but she found that Boqi was looking at Malu.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　gers done.

Ma Lu only thought for a moment and then made a decision.

 Bait fishing may be dangerous for other people, but it is perfect for the Shuangyanghua hunting group with the blessing of meat pigeons.

 The more prey appear, the greater the improvement will be. As long as you don't attract a powerful existence that is impossible to deal with at the beginning, it will become easier as you go later.

Pochi then found a small sand dune and threw the bag of rotten organs underneath, while he himself stood by with a mechanical spear to prevent prey from swallowing the bait.

As for Malu and Mai Mai, they were lying on the sand dunes. This place was not easily attacked and had a wide field of vision. They could also observe the surrounding movements. If something went wrong, they could call Pochi to run away in advance.

Seeing that the group leader and deputy group leader had already made a decision, Mai Mai, as a newcomer who was still in the assessment period, naturally didn't say anything anymore, but there was still a faint look of worry in her eyes.

 Bait fishing...three people is still too few.

 So far, Malu has not done anything except catching young flame lizards everywhere. Her situation is special. She can basically only take one shot, which means that only Pochi is hunting.

Maimai was worried about whether that small body could withstand the intense battle that followed.
