Chapter 70 Encircling the Crocodile Gar Fish
Chapter 70 Encircling the Crocodile Gar Fish
As the bald man recounted his miserable experiences, a life-and-death battle was unfolding in the waters of Shuijun Lake.
On the calm surface of the water, waves splashed about as if some monster was struggling beneath.
Suming was seated in a motorboat, eyes intently fixed on the water's surface, while two German Shepherds rested their front paws on the edge of the boat, tongues out as they stared at the water, occasionally emitting threatening growls.
Despite their excellent water skills and formidable combat abilities, the dogs were helpless when it came to fighting aquatic creatures!
The recently introduced ferocious Alligator Gar hadn't been in the lake for long before the big-headed catfish that guarded the lake detected their presence!
Alligator Gars are natural-born killers, and the big-headed catfish stood no chance against them. The latter wouldn't dare to engage directly in combat, for approaching would only be tantamount to suicide. In desperation, the big-headed catfish could only lead the nearby fish far away, doing its best to minimize losses.
By the time Suming arrived, in less than twenty minutes, the seven Alligator Gars had already killed dozens of various fish and shrimps!
Suming immediately recognized these creatures notorious as "freshwater destroyers" and unleashed a surge of spiritual power upon them.
The Alligator Gars, being one of the ten most ferocious freshwater fish, surprisingly had a strong resistance to spiritual power. They were irritable and fierce and difficult to tame. Upon contact with spiritual power, they wriggled free from control and struggled to escape.
With Suming's current level of spiritual power, he was not totally helpless, but the size of the lake was vast and the Alligator Gars were highly cunning. It was not easy to accurately pinpoint their location. Even if they could be barely locked on, the Alligator Gars would not submit in a short time.
Suming quickly guzzled a large mouthful of blue honey, replenishing his spiritual power to the brim, and controlled the school of fish to lure the Alligator Gars towards the center of the lake.
On the way, dozens more juvenile fish, used as bait, were sacrificed!
"Damn it! Zhou Jin, I swear I'll make sure you have a failed harvest every year!" Suming gritted his teeth fiercely.
At that moment, in the waters beneath the boat, appeared a huge whirlpool made up of thousands of various fish species!
At the very center of the whirlpool were the seven gathering Alligator Gars!
Layers of juvenile fish, connected head to tail, swam around the Alligator Gars rapidly, like migrating schools of fish in the ocean.
In water, fish are like people on land: if a person can't walk steadily on shore, it can only mean that they have reached the brink of exhaustion!
"Now's the time!"
Suddenly, the whirlpool opened a large gap, and a monstrous-looking alligator turtle with a swaggering gait entered the battleground from the fissure!
Whether in offense or defense, the alligator turtle was far superior to the crocodile gar. Against one-on-one, there was no question of the outcome. But normally, faced with seven crocodile gars, the alligator turtle would have to flee!
However, at this moment, the crocodile gar had reached the end of their tether. The arrival of the alligator turtle was the last straw that broke the crocodile gar.
Looking every bit the demon, the alligator turtle chased the disoriented crocodile gar in a frenzied pursuit. Repeatedly, crocodile gars would crash into the 'walls' of the whirlpool, only to be pushed back by the formidable collision force, and then chased again, crashing back into the whirlpool...
Seeing the opportune moment, Suming licked a large mouthful of honey and violently poured his spiritual power into the seven crocodile gars without any reservation!
Nearing utter exhaustion, the crocodile gars finally could no longer withstand the erosion of spiritual power and gave up resistance!
The water's surface gradually returned to calm...

After the great battle, nearly three hundred of Suming's fish fry, shrimp, and crabs had perished, with the majority being crayfish. Due to their shelled bodies, these creatures were actually quite fragile; a sweep from the long bodies of the crocodile gars killed many at once.
Compared to the total population of Shuijun Lake, these losses were negligible. But if not for Suming's timely discovery and strategic command using spiritual power, given enough time, these few crocodile gars could have wiped out everything in the lake.
All seven crocodile gars were captured and brought back to the Fengshui Pavilion. They looked like prehistoric monsters, with slimy scales covering their bodies and long mouths filled with sharp teeth—they looked unspeakably strange.
After recovering a bit of strength, the crocodile gars even showed signs of rebelling once more!
"Give up resistance, turn away from darkness and toward the light, right the wrongs, switch sides and strike back—that's your only way out!"
Suming sat inside the Whisperwind Pavilion with a cold smirk.
