A bolt of lightning struck down, illuminating the surface of the lake. Not only did the Lake Lord survive, but it also seemed to be in high spirits. The horn on its head seemed to be able to control the lightning around it. Every time the horn lit up, a portion of the lightning would be absorbed by the horn.
After absorbing the lightning, the Lord of the Lake's body began to emit arcs of lightning. It looked like he was about to unleash some ultimate move. Soon, just as everyone expected, the Lord of the Lake's body suddenly flashed with a large number of arcs of lightning. The adult moon fish around him had all fled because they knew that the Lord of the Lake was angry.
"Heavens, my father told me that some special Moon Fish can even control the weather and summon lightning. So it's true," Pavler exclaimed.
"Ah?" Just as they were talking, Little Mi, who was delaying the Lake Lord, suddenly flashed with a golden light and disappeared.
"Huh?" The three players on the shore were stunned.
Millet's disappearance was not a result of Li Huailin's summoning. It was a passive effect. When Li Huailin was pulled back by the fishing line, he lost four-fifths of his health. He had planned to rely on the Suffocation debuff to recover his health, but before he could do so, the Lake Lord suddenly rose to the surface. Li Huailin took a deep breath, and the debuff disappeared.
Before Li Huailin could recover from his shock, he suddenly felt a flash of lightning. Li Huailin suddenly received magic damage. Moreover, the magic damage was quite high. In an instant, Li Huailin was on the brink of death. As he was about to die, Little Mi's Noble Sacrifice activated. A golden flash of light struck the Lake Lord, causing 60000 + damage. Then, Li Huailin's HP was restored to full. Afterwards, Li Huailin returned to the pet space to revive.
After losing Millet's pull, the Lake Lord suddenly felt the fishing line loosen. The Lake Lord was quite intelligent. As soon as the fishing line loosened, it immediately pulled with all its might. With this pull, the remaining two trees that were used to hold the line in place could not withstand such an impact. Soon, the second tree that was already on the verge of collapse was directly snapped in half, and the last tree was uprooted in an instant. Dragging two trees with it, the fishing line on this side was directly pulled into the water.
"It's over!" Pavler shouted. Although he saw the situation unfold, he could do nothing to stop it. As a human, there was nothing he could do.
"Huailin, the fishing line is broken," Su Ruoyan immediately reported to Li Huailin in the party channel.
"I got it." When Li Huailin saw Millet appear, he knew that something like this would happen. The only hope now was that he was still on her body. If that was the case, there was still hope. After Anran died, Li Huailin would directly burn the fish to death. "Wait a moment, let me see if I can kill this fish."
Because the fishing line was broken, the fishing line on Li Huailin's body was useless. The Lake Lord was still holding onto two trees, so it was still dragging Li Huailin. In order to prevent himself from being pulled out, Li Huailin decided to untie the fishing line first.
But something unexpected happened. As soon as Li Huailin untied the fishing line, the Lake Lord suddenly sucked in a deep breath. Due to the current, Li Huailin didn't manage to hold on and was directly blown out. Before he could react, the Lake Lord suddenly turned around and swallowed Li Huailin whole.
Li Huailin was a little dizzy from the rush of the water. In addition, it was pitch black all around, so Li Huailin couldn't tell which direction he was going. Following the violent current, he was swept all the way into the Lake Lord's stomach. There was also a large bag of water in the Lake Lord's stomach, but Li Huailin could still distinguish the top and bottom. The main thing was that he could see the light coming from the surface of the water.
After swimming for a while, Li Huailin quickly emerged from the water. To Li Huailin's surprise, there really was a space in the Lake Lord's stomach, and it looked quite big. It was covered in red and white things that looked like internal organs. It looked a little disgusting.
Li Huailin could see his surroundings clearly because of the light. Following the light, he saw Anran, who had come in before Li Huailin. Anran was now floating on the water, holding a torch in her left hand and healing herself with a staff in her right.
"Why are you here too?" Asked Anran when she saw that the person who came in was Li Huailin. "Didn't you say you would think of a way to get me out?"
"Ahem, I thought about it. I came in first to see how I could get you out," said Li Huailin immediately.
"Alright, how do we get out now?" asked Anran.
"Should we just cut our way out?" asked Li Huailin as he looked at the meat wall around him.
"I tried using magic, but the stomach wall here seems very sturdy. I can't break it open." Anran then cast Holy Light on herself. "Also, I'm almost out of mana, and my mana potions are on cooldown."
Li Huailin immediately looked at his Buffs. There was indeed a Buff that allowed him to recover 600 health points per second. He could not die even if he wanted to. He had no choice but to kill the Lake Lord.
"Can't we swim out?" asked Li Huailin.
"I don't think so. The opening of the stomach seems to be closed. It only opens when we eat." Anran pointed at a meat door in front of them and said, "This is the exit, but it's closed now. According to the structure, there should be another exit below. Why don't you dive down and see if it's open?"
"There's no need …" Li Huailin facepalmed. He did not want to go down even if he died.
"Then what are you going to do?" asked Anran.
"Why don't you go offline first? I'm going to use my ultimate skill, so that I don't have to … wait …" Li Huailin was just about to use his ultimate weapon when he suddenly thought of an interesting problem. "Wait … Anran, what do you think will happen if I summon my pet here?"
"That dragon?" asked Anran.
"Yeah." Li Huailin looked around. The stomach was not as big as Millet's body.
"It sounds interesting." Anran was a little curious.
"Then I'm coming," said Li Huailin.
"Okay." Anran nodded.
"Come, Millet …" said Li Huailin as he waved his hand.
Back on the shore, Pavle's face was filled with sadness. This was the closest he had come to fulfilling his father's dream, but he did not expect the opportunity to come and go so quickly. Although he was on the verge of success, he still failed at the last moment. Pavle did not know if he would ever have the chance to catch the Lord of the Lake again.
Just as he was feeling down, the surface of the lake began to churn violently. The water was constantly moving up and down, as if something was stirring up the lake. Before Pavle could react, four bolts of lightning suddenly fell from the dark clouds in the sky and struck the surface of the lake.
"What's going on?" Pavle asked curiously.
Su Ruoyan didn't know what was going on either, but she felt that it was related to Li Huailin. Perhaps Li Huailin was still fighting the Lord of the Lake. Before she could ask in the party channel, the battle log suddenly appeared.
Battle Log: Your party has defeated the Wild Boss, Lord of the Lake. You have received 42700 experience.
"Eh? We won? " Su Ruoyan was taken aback. Suddenly, there was a ripple on the surface of the lake, and with a splash, a huge black shadow floated out of the water. As the distance was relatively close, Su Ruoyan saw that it was the Lord of the Lake. However, his appearance was slightly different. For some reason, his body had grown bigger, and his stomach felt like it was about to explode, as if he was pregnant.
"Lord of the Lake?" Pavle was also surprised to see the Lord of the Lake's corpse. He didn't know what was going on.
"Oh my god …" Just as he was feeling strange, the giant fish's mouth suddenly opened, and a familiar voice came out, "I almost died from the squeeze."
"Huailin." Su Ruoyan immediately shouted towards the voice. Su Ruoyan didn't see the person who came out, but she could tell that it was Li Huailin from the voice.
"Oh, it's me. I'm fine," Li Huailin replied. "Anran is here as well."
"How interesting," Anran suddenly said while swimming beside him.
"Interesting my ass. It's so crowded that I almost can't recognize it." Li Huailin then shouted to Pavle, "Hey, uncle, go get a rope and drag the Lord of the Lake's corpse over."
"Oh, okay." On the other side, Pierre was completely stunned. His mood had just sunk to the bottom, but now it had taken a sudden turn. The Lake Lord had actually been captured by him! This was simply unbelievable!
The excited Pavle immediately went back to his cabin to get a rope. He couldn't wait to see the Lord of the Lake's corpse.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Huailin and Anran finally swam ashore. Ceci and Su Ruoyan immediately ran over.
"Huailin, are you okay?" Ceci immediately asked.
"I'm fine, but I really don't want to see any fish for a while," Li Huailin said. "The quest should be completed by now, right?"
"Yeah, this part of the quest has been completed." Su Ruoyan looked at the quest notification and said, "Now we just need to bring the fish back to Larrion."
"Phew …" Li Huailin heaved a heavy sigh of relief. "Really, I will never do such a ridiculous task again."
