Five-Star Monster Treasure Chest

Su Yu didn't dwell on it any further, walking into the Small Wooden Cabin to whip up a quick breakfast before grabbing his Black Iron Grade Fishing Rod and heading toward the edge of the island.

Having not yet had the chance to test the feel of the Black Iron Grade Fishing Rod last night, Su Yu was already feeling quite impatient.

[Below the sea surface here, there are mostly Common Wooden Treasure Chests; casting a net or fishing is not recommended.]

[Below the sea surface here, there are many ★ and ☆ Common Wooden Treasure Chests; casting a net or fishing is not recommended.]

[Five meters below the sea surface here, there is a Five-Star Common Wooden Treasure Chest; fishing is recommended.]

After switching locations several times, Su Yu finally locked onto the position of a Five-Star Wooden Treasure Chest.

He baited the hook, cast the line, and waited.

"Whoosh." About ten minutes later, Su Yu gripped the fishing rod tightly and gave it a sharp tug, causing the rod in his hands to emit a sudden whistling sound.

[Common Jiaoren]

With the Black Iron Grade Fishing Rod in hand, Su Yu didn't need to play the line at all; he could simply haul it up with brute force.

To be honest, Su Yu was quite surprised when he saw the information for this chest. This was his first time encountering a Five-Star Monster Treasure Chest, and the attributes of the monster inside were significantly higher than those of a Goblin.

Looking at the Monster Treasure Chest that had been pulled onto the island, Su Yu reached out, quickly touched the chest, and chose to open it.

As the Common Monster Treasure Chest opened, Su Yu had already put some distance between himself and the chest sitting on the ground.

Accompanied by a flash of white light, a Jiaoren with a fish tail and human torso appeared out of thin air on the small island.

"Holy crap, it's ugly. Is this Jiaoren a close relative of those Sea Monkeys?" Looking at the sharp-beaked, fanged Jiaoren not far away, Su Yu felt a headache coming on.

Without waiting for the still-dazed Jiaoren to react, Su Yu picked up his pistol and began firing shots.

"Bang, bang, bang." Su Yu fired several shots in quick succession.

Unsurprisingly, with Su Yu's current physical attributes, he didn't miss at such close range, but he didn't manage to hit the Jiaoren in the head either.

Because the moment the first bullet hole appeared on its body, the Jiaoren firmly shielded its head with both hands and let out a shrill, piercing howl.

Given the speed of sound, Su Yu was naturally hit by the attack immediately.

However, standing on the island, Su Yu's spirit attribute was more than double that of the Jiaoren, so the Jiaoren Shriek only made his head feel slightly heavy before he had no further reaction.

"Damn, others charge money for a performance, but you're trying to take my life!" Recovering his senses, Su Yu didn't hold back on his ammunition and continued to fire rapidly.

"Bang, bang." Every shot Su Yu fired opened a small bloody hole in the Jiaoren's body.

However, the Jiaoren had a relatively strong constitution. Before its vital areas were hit, the power of the old-fashioned pistol in Su Yu's hand dropped sharply after penetrating its scales and dense muscles.

"Hum." Driven nearly mad by the pain, the Jiaoren had long since locked onto the culprit attacking it from afar. It gripped its Spear and hurled it violently toward Su Yu.

Su Yu, who was keeping a close eye on the Jiaoren's movements, was naturally not going to get hit. If he were struck by that thing, even with his constitution, he would surely be run through.

The Jiaoren, having thrown its Spear, lay on the ground with a ferocious expression, staring at Su Yu. Since it couldn't stand upright on land, it could only remain half-prone.

Now that the Jiaoren was without its Spear and had already exhausted its skill, it was no different from a fish on the chopping block in Su Yu's eyes.

Gripping his Hundred-Refined Goose-Quill Saber, Su Yu accelerated and charged toward the Jiaoren.

At such a close distance, the half-prone Jiaoren hadn't even reacted before Su Yu slashed at its neck. Seeing that the single strike hadn't completely severed the creature's neck, Su Yu jumped back to put some distance between them, lest he get splattered with blood.

As for the Jiaoren, the ferocious look on its face had vanished, replaced by an expression of bewilderment and disbelief.

Then, with a loud thud, the Jiaoren's body collapsed heavily onto the ground, blood pooling all around it.

[Ding, you have successfully slain the five-star Common Monster Treasure Chest monster, Jiaoren. Treasure chest reward: Common Jiaoren Guard *1.]

[Ding, your Double Happiness talent has triggered. You have obtained two Common Jiaoren Guards.]

Materials for advancing to Elite Jiaoren Guard: (Common Jiaoren Pearl *10, Elite Jiaoren Blood 5L.)

After Su Yu killed that Jiaoren, a white light flashed, and the Jiaoren Su Yu had just slain vanished from the ground, leaving behind only the blood on the floor to indicate that something had happened here just moments ago.

At the same time, two more robust Jiaoren appeared before Su Yu's eyes, though they were both currently half-crouched.

"You two head into the sea first!" Su Yu glanced at these two Jiaoren and gave the order directly.

"Thank you, Master." Upon hearing this command, a look of joy couldn't help but appear on the ferocious faces of the two Jiaoren guards, and then the two Jiaoren guards were seen using their arms to push off the ground and crawl away rapidly.

"Splash." Accompanied by the sound of two bodies hitting the water, the two Jiaoren guards successfully jumped into the sea.
