Chapter 382: Chapter 317: “You’re actually quite nice.” (9K words long chapter)_4
That meant the hook could be cast every five minutes.
In the previous five attempts, he hadn’t managed to hook any good items.
Once, he did hook a small monster.
He killed it effortlessly.@@@@
“Life Value +1”
It was a trifle, hardly worth mentioning, so he just considered it as an appetizer before stacking a layer onto the S-grade prop “Longevity as the Southern Mountains.” He had just returned, planning to rest for the night and wasn’t keen on finding ways to stack this item today.
...
But the Gold Miner had forcibly opened his business for him.
On two other attempts, he hooked some stones, which he didn’t discard, but set aside.
After all, who knew from which planet those stones were? They could even be some rare minerals, worth keeping as a souvenir.
The last two attempts did bring him two props.
But they were both E-grade props.
More Air Food series, things of no real importance—he threw them to Tuberculosis Rabbit. Not knowing what he would hook next, Chen Yi looked toward the increasingly trembling and forceful portal with some anticipation.
The next second—
“Ding, congratulations on activating the Gold Miner Occupational Effect. Your hook has randomly pulled a cleaning worker from the entire upgrade game for you to enjoy.”
What emerged was a man with an alarmingly distended belly, looking somewhat baffled as a giant hook secured around his stomach pulled him from the white portal.
It was obvious.
The man was bewildered.
“Eh?”
Chen Yi was equally stunned at first, but soon, with a hint of surprise, he asked, “Ping Ye? What are you doing here?”
This man looked familiar—it was the same man he had encountered in hell, who had told him how to deal with the project team workers.
But he quickly realized he had asked a silly question.
“...”
Chen Yi looked oddly at the slowly disappearing white portal. Wasn’t he supposed to enjoy this? He was willing to, if only they gave him something to enjoy.
What he had hooked, why should it be taken back?
Obviously.
You could hook a cleaning worker, but one from the depths of hell had to be sucked back.
Cleaning workers have to spend their lives in the depths of hell; that’s the rule. Even Seed Players from Fivefold Planet are no exception, unless they have gained a Monument, thus becoming a Seed Player, and have that one special privilege.
At that moment.
Tuberculosis Rabbit also came over with a baffled face, standing beside Yi and murmured, “Yi, I just heard that guy calling you, do you know him? His belly sure was huge, and he ate like he hadn’t eaten in a lifetime. Why would he snatch food though?”
“It was just prepared.”
“He’s a cleaning worker from the depths of hell, whom I’ve managed to catch.”
“Prepared as food?”
“...no, caught randomly, I didn’t know it would end up being such a thing.”
Looking at the mess, Tuberculosis Rabbit frowned and said, “Just cleaned it up, and now we have to do it again.”
As the adage goes, some find joy while others sorrow.
The hot pot restaurant owner, who had been worried about running out of tasks, brightened up and eagerly approached, hardly containing his excitement, his voice trembling, “No problem, we’ve prepared ten portions of ingredients, and we can tidy up again right away.”
“Alright then.”
With a sense of resignation, Tuberculosis Rabbit spoke, “Hurry up then, never mind, I’ll have to supervise you. You used to loaf on the job, didn’t you?”
“You have a good eye, sir.”
...
After Tuberculosis Rabbit and the others had left, Chen Yi lit a cigarette, took a deep drag with a tinge of hopelessness, and silently wished for good luck to hurry back before he activated the beachside hook launcher once more.
