Chapter 41 - 41 ★★★★★ Monster Treasure Chest

41 ★★★★★ Monster Treasure Chest

After that, Su Yu did not think too much about it. He walked into the small wooden house and casually made some breakfast to eat. Then, he picked up the Black Iron Fishing Rod and walked towards the shoreline.

Su Yu had not tried to fish with the Black Iron Fishing Rod last night, so he was already a little impatient.

[There are mostly ☆ Ordinary Wooden Treasure Chests in this part of the sea. You are not recommended to cast a net or fish here.]

[There are mostly ☆ and ★ Ordinary Wooden Treasure Chests in this part of the sea. You are not recommended to cast a net or fish here.]

…

[There are traces of ★★★★★ wooden treasure chest five meters below the surface of the sea. You are recommended to fish here.]

After changing directions several times in a row, Su Yu finally locked onto a fishing location with a ★★★★★ wooden treasure chest.

He hung the bait, swung the hook, and waited.

“Whoosh.” About ten minutes later, Su Yu suddenly grabbed the fishing rod and pulled hard. Immediately, the fishing rod in his hand let out a whooshing sound.

Combat Suggestion: Be careful of the Mermans’ sharp howls and spear. It is recommended to shoot from afar.

With the Black Iron Fishing Rod in hand, Su Yu did not need to pull at all. He could just pull it up with brute force.

To be honest, Su Yu was a little surprised when he saw the information about the treasure chest this time. This was the first time Su Yu had encountered a ★★★★★ Monster Treasure Chest. Moreover, the monster this time was much stronger than the Goblin.

Su Yu reached out and quickly touched the Monster Treasure Chest that had been pulled ashore. Then, he chose to open it.

When the Monster Treasure Chest opened, Su Yu was already a distance away from it.

With a flash of white light, a merman with a fishtail and a human body appeared on the island.

“F*ck, it’s so ugly. The merman and the Sea Monkey must be close relatives!” Su Yu felt a headache coming on as he looked at the merman with a sharp mouth and fangs.

Then, without waiting for the confused merman to react, Su Yu picked up his pistol and started to open fire.

“Bang, bang, bang.” Su Yu fired several shots in a row.

As expected, with Su Yu’s current physique, he would not miss at such a close-range. However, Su Yu did not hit the merman’s head.

Because when the merman received the first bullet, it firmly protected its head with its hands and let out an ear-piercing howl.

With the speed of sound transmission, Su Yu was immediately attacked.

However, as he was on his own island, Su Yu’s Spirit Stats were almost twice that of the merman, so this merman’s sharp cry only made Su Yu feel a little lightheaded.

“F*ck, other people are shouting for money, but you’re shouting for my life!” Su Yu, who had regained his senses, did not hesitate to fire the bullet.

“Bang, bang…” Su Yu’s every shot created a small bloody hole on the merman’s body.

However, the merman’s physique was relatively strong. Before the vital parts of its body were hit, the power of the ordinary pistol in Su Yu’s hand would decrease sharply after piercing through the scales and high-density muscles on its body.

“Buzz.” The merman, who had almost gone crazy from the pain, had naturally locked onto the culprit who had been attacking it. Thus, this merman held the spear in one hand and threw it at Su Yu.

Su Yu was constantly paying attention to the merman’s movement, so he naturally could not be shot. Otherwise, if he was shot by this thing, even with Su Yu’s physique, his body would definitely be pierced.

At this moment, the merman who threw the spear lay on the ground and looked at Su Yu with a ferocious expression. Because he could not stand up on land, this merman could only lie down on its stomach.

At this moment, without the spear in its hand, it was no different from a merman who had already used up all its skill. In Su Yu’s eyes, it was no different from a fish waiting to be slaughtered.

Then, holding the Hundred Forged Yanling Saber, Su Yu sped up and rushed towards the merman.

With the close distance between the two, the merman who was half lying on the ground did not even have time to react before its neck was slashed by Su Yu’s saber. Seeing that the saber did not completely cut off the other party’s neck, Su Yu suddenly jumped back and widened the distance, saving himself from being covered in blood.

As for the merman, the ferocious expression on its face had already disappeared, replaced by the expression of daze and disbelief.

Then, with a bang, the merman’s body crumpled into the ground. Its blood flowed all over the ground.

[Ding! You have successfully killed a Merman from the ★★★★★ Ordinary Monster Treasure Chest. The treasure chest rewards you with an Ordinary Merman Guard*1.]

[Ding! Your Double Happiness skill has been triggered. You have obtained two Ordinary Merman Guards.]

After Su Yu killed it, the merman on the ground disappeared with a flash of white light, leaving only blood on the ground. It was the only indication that something had happened here.

At the same time, two brawny mermen appeared in front of Su Yu, but they were both lying on their stomachs.

“The two of you, go to the sea first!” Su Yu instructed after looking at the two mermen.

“Thank you, Master.” Hearing this order, joy appeared on the ferocious faces of the two merman guards. Then, the two merman guards quickly started to crawl with their arms on the ground.

“Plop.” With two sounds of water splashing, two merman guards successfully jumped into the sea.
