Chapter 29 - Chapter 29: Truly Delicious!

Chen Wen's once inflated mind instantly deflated quite a bit.

However, the entry of bull shark left Chen Wen speechless.

"Truly one of the most ferocious sharks in the world, these three entries all look anything but positive!"

The first entry, [High Aggression], goes without saying. According to the system's arrangement habit, it must be negative.

Moreover, the performance of this entry is also negative.

Any slight movement would trigger an attack desire.

If this were in the city, wouldn't it be outright mania plus neurosis?

Not choosing!

As for the second one.

To be honest, it's the first time Chen Wen has seen such a "colorful" entry.

This kind of thing wouldn't even pass the review in a novel.

Besides, he's sure he has no alphabet kink.

Also eliminated.

Not choosing!

As for the third one, [Bloodthirsty].

If it weren't for being able to activate it voluntarily, Chen Wen would definitely consider it a negative entry.

But being able to control the activation right, doesn't make it a negative entry anymore.

"This thing can totally be used as a life-saving trump card, choosing it!"

Chen Wen decisively chose.

As the [Bloodthirsty] with a tinge of blood red in the purple dissipated.

His entry library gained another combat pillar.

After selecting the entry.

Chen Wen still had to continue tasting the remaining pickled pepper coconut milk grouper.

A bite of pickled pepper.

The system had no reaction, seems like pickled pepper doesn't belong to natural creations here in the system.

A bite of coconut.

Hmm... the taste of the toilet.

No need to think more about the remaining grouper slices, still the taste of the toilet.

Enduring this taste, Chen Wen consumed the slice of grouper.

The texture was good, the flavor was average though.

Along with the grouper slice going down, the entry selection page popped up.

[Target the natural creation - Spotted Grouper, for plunder!]

[Plundering... Plunder complete!]

[Please select one among the following three entries]

[Temperature - Appetite (Blue): When the temperature is below 14°C or above 32°C, appetite declines]

[Note: Too cold! Don't want to open my mouth, won't eat! Too hot! It's too hot to open my mouth, won't eat! - Spotted Grouper]

[Love Darkness (Green): You prefer staying in dark places]

[Note: Hiding in the shadows, you can see more things! This is our spotted grouper's philosophy for survival! - Spotted Grouper]

[Adaptation (Blue): You can adapt to most oceans and live more comfortably in the sea]

[Note: Occupying territory isn't about how many fish are there, but who can adapt to more environments! Survival of the fittest, adapt and survive, handsome! - Spotted Grouper]

[Please make a selection or abandon within one minute! If overdue, the first entry will be selected automatically!]

There's not much room for choice.

Chen Wen decisively chose [Adaptation].

To be honest, the effect of this entry is somewhat irrelevant.

Living more comfortably in the ocean?

I'm not a fish, what am I going to the ocean for when I'm free?

To play?

Chen Wen continued eating the remaining pickled pepper coconut milk grouper, contemplating what to do with his life if he were rescued.

Catching fish was no longer an option.

After this incident, Chen Wen was quite certain he was unlikely to find a new crew.

Then what else could he do?

This world's Chen Wen only had a high school education. His grades were good, but he didn't take the college entrance exam.

Which means taking a civil service exam seems unlikely.

Chen Wen's past life's major was in geography, which doesn't have much reference value now.

Damn, it seems he can only choose one from entering a factory, food delivery, or security guard!

Chen Wen grinned, a bit worried about his future.

But soon, he put these worries aside.

"Damn, who knows when I'll be back, thinking about this is pointless!"

Chen Wen cursed, stopping himself from thinking about these issues.

After a while, Chen Wen looked at the red-warm beautifully cooked lobster, feeling it should be ready.

Therefore, Chen Wen decided to lift the head cover of the beautiful lobster.

Taking the mostly cooked beautiful lobster off the grill, dissecting it and placing it in a coconut.

"Pacific style grilled beautiful lobster, please try it!"

Chen Wen continued his role-play, just that he turned from Emperor Chen to Attendant Chen.

Picked out a lobster leg.

Chen Wen bit open the hard shell, revealing the tender white lobster meat inside.

"So fragrant! So white!"

Chen Wen exclaimed in awe, using a Swiss army knife to extract the lobster meat.

Just seeing it, smelling it, Chen Wen already felt immense satisfaction.

Putting the lobster meat in his mouth, gently biting it.

The juices burst out with a fresh and sweet seafood flavor.

Just like a dam releasing floodwater, instantly occupying Chen Wen's mouth.

The ammonia smell from eating shark earlier was also washed away by the fragrance.

"Damn it, this is delicious?!"

Chen Wen was astonished.

He had eaten shrimp before.

On the ship, regular small shrimp were edible.

But shrimp this delicious, he indeed had never tasted before.

No wonder these things sell for such a high price, even after they were banned from capture, people still take the risk.

It's really a delicacy!

"If I were a rich guy, I'd certainly spend big money to get such a lobster, so fragrant!"

Chen Wen gobbled up the lobster meat, feeling full of happiness.

Even more happiness awaited him.

Once Chen Wen finished one leg, the system made a move.

[Target the natural creation - Beautiful Lobster, for plunder!]

[Plundering... Plunder complete!]

[Please select one among the following three entries]

[Dislike Swimming (Purple): You don't like swimming and are not good at it]

[Note: Swimming? I refuse! Wait, what are you doing with that pot! - Beautiful Lobster]

[Rock Climbing Claws (White): You possess some rock climbing ability, be careful!]

[Note: I achieved second place in the coral reef climbing contest! Try it yourself! - Beautiful Lobster]

[Perception (Green): Your perception ability has been enhanced]

[Note: I heard humans have something... called Observation Haki? Come try it with me! - Beautiful Lobster]

[Please make a selection or abandon within one minute! If overdue, the first entry will be selected automatically!]

Looking at the beautiful lobster's entries, Chen Wen finally understood why this thing is protected.

"Isn't this just a well-intentioned idiot?"

As a marine creature, not liking to swim aside, it doesn't even have strong climbing abilities.

If not protected, given its delicious taste.

Within ten years, the wild populations in the waters around Hua Country would be completely devoured!

In the end, Chen Wen chose [Perception], somewhat making up for a weak spot.

After finishing the entry selection, and eating about eighty to ninety percent full.

Chen Wen continued with his work.

Making racks for storing food, and continued grilling meat.

...

Really lost?

In the rainforest.

The expressions of the male group were filled with panic.

Over on the show's side, things were equally chaotic.

Xiao Yong was practically scrutinizing the footage frame by frame, searching for Du Feng's position.

He noticed that when Du Feng was helping others rescue Yan Bian, he seemed to be drawn in by something.

Heading northeast into the tropical rainforest.

While passing this information to the male group, Xiao Yong was also hesitating whether to dispatch a rescue team.

But just as Xiao Yong was hesitating.

In the midst of the jungle, Du Feng clutched his bloodied right arm, stumbling into the camera's view.
