Chapter 38 - Leader Of The Giant Pincer Crabs

Chapter 38 Leader Of The Giant Pincer Crabs

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw this scene. Just now, they had all been prepared to fight to the death. However, in the blink of an eye, Guo Li had made all these barbarians submit to him.

Their chief had been pushed into the sea by Guo Li and fed to the Sharks. These barbarians all submitted to Guo Li.

Cai Er was worried about Guo Li and was ecstatic to see that he was safe. She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears. Guo Li gently patted Cai Er’s back and said in a low voice, “It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m back now.”

Cai Er could not stop crying. It could be seen that she had been really worried about Guo Li’s safety. Although she gradually stopped crying, she still sniffled from time to time. Jack said from the side, “Master, when you jumped into the sea just now, the mistress almost jumped into the sea after you.”

After Guo Li heard that, he looked at Cai Er and caressed her hair. He said in a low voice, “It’s okay, I’m fine. Don’t cry. I won’t take such risks in the future.”

Cai Er threw herself into Guo Li’s arms again and cried, “You’re not allowed to take such risks ever again in the future. I was so worried about your safety just now. I didn’t want to live anymore…”

Guo Li was touched. He hugged Cai Er and comforted her in a low voice. The slaves trembled and knelt on the ground, not daring to move at all. From their perspective, this human was a devil who could control the water demons.

After a night of torment, everyone was exhausted. Guo Li and the others returned to their tents to rest. They kept the barbarians kneeling on the ground, leaving only one sailor on watch duty.

After returning to the tent, Cai Er asked worriedly, “Guo Li, will those barbarians escape or sneak attack us?”

Guo Li said without any worry, “It’s okay. Those barbarians are terrified. They wouldn’t dare to sneak away, let alone attack us.”

Cai Er was relieved after hearing that. She leaned against Guo Li’s chest and slowly fell asleep.

It was already late in the morning when Guo Li and the others woke up. When they walked out of the tent, the barbarians were still kneeling on the ground, not daring to move at all. When they saw Guo Li walking out, their bodies started to tremble again.

Guo Li asked the sailor who was on night watch duty if the barbarians had displayed any unusual behavior. The sailor replied, “They didn’t dare to move at all. Master completely intimidated them. They didn’t even dare to make a sound.”

Guo Li nodded in satisfaction and walked over to the barbarians. When they saw Guo Li walking over, their bodies trembled all over.

Guo Li thought for a moment and decided to make these barbarians mine the ores. It just so happened that he was lacking in terms of manpower at the moment. There were more than ten barbarians. It would be best to get them to mine the ores.

Guo Li ordered the barbarians to mine the ores on the island. They would only be allowed to eat if they turned in their quota of ores each day. Otherwise, they would be forced to starve.

The barbarians were very obedient. At first, they believed that they would be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks. When they heard that they did not have to die, and only needed to work in order to eat, these barbarians cheered for their new master excitedly.

After acknowledging his order, the barbarians began to mine the ores. The sailors were responsible for supervising them. Guo Li was lying in the tent, leisurely, enjoying Cai Er’s comfortable massage.

Half a day passed very quickly. What made Guo Li unhappy was that these barbarians were very slow when it came to mining the ores.

This was due to the ores being too hard, making them very difficult to mine. After hearing the report from the supervising sailor, Guo Li found out that the hardness of the ore was extraordinary.

It was not easy to mine these ores. Even if there had been tools handy, it would still have not been easy to mine them.

At this point, it looked like his plan to mine the ores had to be put on hold.

Guo Li was a little anxious. His island needed a lot of ores to develop according to his plan. If he could not mine these ores, then this resource island would be no better than an ornamental decoration, unusable.

Jack suddenly said, “Master, I noticed that those giant pincer crabs could build nests on the island. They even dug big holes in the mine. It would be much easier for these giant pincer crabs to mine them!”

Guo Li’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He picked up the fishing rod and walked toward the sea. As he walked on, he didn’t forget to instruct the sailors, “Make sure those slaves continue to work. I’m going to fish first.”

The slaves heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the devil leave. They had been extremely afraid just now. They were afraid that they would be judged as useless and be thrown into the sea to feed the water demons since they could not properly extract the ores.

The slaves continued to extract the ores while Guo Li went fishing. His target was the giant pincer crabs, and he hoped to catch one today.

Guo Li initially only caught some sea fish for dinner. He did not come across a single giant pincer crab until later that afternoon. Guo Li was a little anxious by then.

Wukong and Cai Er found some edible wild fruits on the resource island. Although the taste of these fruits were lacking, it was still better than nothing; they were still quite juicy.

Guo Li ate the fruits that Cai Er had cleaned. He was anxious this whole time. Giant pincer crabs were hard to catch. It had been several hours, but not a single giant pincer crab had been caught.

Suddenly, there was a tug on the line. Guo Li immediately perked up and began to pull the fishing rod back bit by bit. The resisting force was very strong, and Guo Li had to stand up to leverage more strength.

After a long struggle, Guo Li finally pulled the big guy out of the water bit by bit. The first thing that emerged from beneath the water was actually a pincer the size of a dustpan. Under the sunlight, it even flickered with a metallic luster.

Immediately after, half of the giant crab’s body, which was like a small millstone, appeared. That pair of pincers comprised one-third of its body.

Guo Li finally caught the big crab. A system notification then rang out in Guo Li’s mind.

[Ding! Congratulations! The host has successfully caught the leader of the giant pincer crabs!)

(Note: Giant pincers crabs. These creatures have a pair of giant pincers that can crush metal. No matter how hard an object is, their pincers can slice through it tofu!]

Guo Li was pleasantly surprised. He had finally caught a giant pincer crab, and it turned out to be the leader of the giant pincer crabs. This big fellow was quite unruly. After being caught by Guo Li, it kept showing off; it raised a pair of giant pincers and seemed like it was about to fight with Guo Li.

It seemed that it was unconvinced after being caught by this human and wanted to teach him a good lesson.

Guo Li did not waste any words. He raised the elemental magic crossbow in his hand and aimed it at the giant pincer crab. It was as if he was threatening to kill it if it did not listen to him.

The leader of the giant pincer crabs had a very high level of intelligence. When Guo Li had used the elemental magic crossbow to attack the great white shark, it had been hiding not far away!
