Chapter 364 Identity Mission
Identity-based missions and regular missions appear simultaneously, and both have a time limit of one hour.
Lu Youyou originally intended to submit the task using her inventory, but after glancing out the window at Liu Hui who was already fishing, she decided to go out and tell her.
She dressed neatly, used the vehicle to shrink the bubble, and hung the keychain on her trouser loop.
"Liu Hui, it's me..."
"Shh-"
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Youyou was interrupted by Liu Hui.
"Look at your watch."
Lu Youyou instantly understood what she meant; she wanted to communicate using mind-reading.
"OK."
After responding, Lu Youyou opened the live stream page.
The initial page only shows the two of them, himself and Liu Hui, with two lines of text above each of their heads.
Lu Youyou knew what she was thinking, so she didn't pay attention to the words above her head, but only to Liu Hui's.
This person's current state: Calm.
[This person's inner thoughts: I know you want to submit the task directly, don't worry about me, I've already submitted mine, and I have the inventory.]
Since she doesn't need to help with fishing, Lu Youyou has plenty of time to go to the designated location to complete her identity mission.
She smiled at Liu Hui and submitted the task on the spot.
Congratulations on becoming the 23rd angler to complete the task! Please choose one of the following rewards.
[Special Bait *1: Selecting this option will guarantee you obtain a 4-star or higher creature when using bait.]
[Strengthen Fishing Line: Select this option to make your fishing line stronger.]
[Smart Reel: Selecting this option will automatically rotate the reel to reel in the line when a fish is hooked, and will stop the smart reel after three seconds.]
Lu Youyou wanted all three, but she could only choose one, so she had to consider it carefully.
Specially formulated bait guarantees a catch of high-star fish.
But she is a fish-woman, and can use the "Call Friends" skill once every hour, which should include high-star fish.
Therefore, specially made fish bait is not a necessity.
The smart handle can only be held for three seconds, while the highly sensitive float will release a microcurrent to alert itself when it senses a fish biting.
If even a microcurrent can't bring you back to your senses, it means you're already out of it, and those extra three seconds of respite won't help.
After much thought, I realized that only a stronger fishing line would be more effective, and the supplies I already had couldn't replace it.
After making her selections, Lu Youyou had 57 minutes left to complete her identity task.
She followed the instructions and continued on her way.
Lu Youyou didn't want to spend time traveling, so she used Flash Step intermittently.
Ten minutes later, she arrived at the most winding part of the coastline.
Unlike where she was, where vehicles appeared every four or five meters, here they appeared only every ten meters or so.
The watch indicated that the destination was in the ground under a truck.
Lu Youyou sighed. Luckily, she wasn't too fat, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to squeeze in.
But what did the car owner run over? It stank so bad it made her dizzy.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
One of the fishermen asked, and judging from his age, he was around fifty.
Lu Youyou poked her head out: "Uncle, I'm digging for earthworms. I noticed there's no sign of the soil being disturbed here, so I thought I'd try it out."
"Oh, then hurry up. The car owner has a bad temper. He vented his anger by making a lot of noise this morning and then drove off. I don't know when he'll be back."
"Okay, thank you."
Lu Youyou returned to the bottom of the car and sped up her movements, swinging the shovel so fast it left afterimages.
"Click."
With another shovelful, instead of the swishing sound of digging, he encountered a hard obstacle—a jar of unknown material.
Lu Youyou was overjoyed; this must be it, containing the eyes of the merman leader.
She loosened the soil around the jar so that it could be easily pulled out.
However, since the watch never indicated that the task was completed, Lu Youyou's resolute heart began to waver with doubt.
Isn't this the jar used to bury the remains of the merman leader?
She checked the map repeatedly and confirmed that she was aligned with the red dot indicating her destination. This was the place.
Why isn't there a notification that the task was successful?
Lu Youyou took a deep breath, but instead of relaxing, she smelled an even stronger stench than before, and almost fainted.
This time she was certain that the stench was coming from the can, not the wheels.
Could it be that the merman leader's eyes are rotten inside? If so, how the hell can he be resurrected?
Lu Youyou didn't have time to think and immediately lifted the lid.
A pungent stench filled the air, growing stronger with each passing moment, causing even the fishermen ahead to frequently turn their heads.
The uncle who first noticed Lu Youyou getting into the car couldn't help but remind him.
"Girl, what are you doing? Why do you smell so bad? You've made the area under someone's car stink. They can't just move the car. Aren't you just asking for a beating?"
Lu Youyou said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect the soil here to smell so bad. I'll fill the pit right now."
"Then hurry up, don't let my fish rot away."
"Hey!"
Lu Youyou responded loudly, but her eyes were fixed on the inside of the jar, her eyes wide with shock.
There was nothing rotten or filthy here, only a jet-black talisman and two light blue, glowing stones.
Those two light blue stones are the eyes of the merman leader!
The talisman was stuck on the eyeballs, constantly transferring the blackness of the body to blue.
This results in the upper half of the eyeball being very dark, which clearly indicates that the person is not a good person.
As if guided by the depths of her soul, Lu Youyou tore open the talisman.
The suppressed light blue emitted a dazzling light, gradually fading the black of the upper half.
At the same time, the black talisman paper gradually dissipated.
Once the talisman had completely disappeared, there was no black mark above the merman leader's eyes.
Like two miniature crystal balls, they contain boundless water energy.
hum~
The watch vibrated.
Congratulations on completing the identity quest and receiving the blessing of the Murloc Chieftain.
Lu Youyou pouted. This was worse than fishing. At least it would be useful for fishing rods, instead of just an empty blessing.
After filling in the hole, Lu Youyou slowly climbed out from under the car.
Just as I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, I suddenly felt myself being locked onto by a dangerous aura.
Her body reacted faster than her mind; she used Shadow Step to retreat swiftly.
Boom!
A harpoon appeared where he had been standing, firmly embedded in the ground, its handle still vibrating.
"You damned murloc, stealing right under my nose!"
The sound arrives first, then the person.
The speaker was dressed in silver armor and wore a helmet of the same color. With a wave of his hand, the harpoon returned to his hand.
He doesn't seem like a player.
At the very least, she had never seen a player dressed like that before.
"Hey, I'm telling you, this isn't your car. The other owner hasn't said anything, so what are you saying here?"
The older man couldn't stand the man bullying Lu Youyou, so he offered a few words of advice.
"If you also want to dig for earthworms, then go in and dig too. Why are you making things difficult for that young girl?"
"Old man, this is a feud between me and the murlocs. What does it have to do with you? Say one more word and you're dead."
The uncle didn't dare to speak, gave Lu Youyou a look that said "good luck," and turned around to fish silently.
His slightly trembling back revealed that his inner world was far from as calm as he appeared.
