Leveling Up With My Pet

After putting down the machine tool, Overlord held his giant spear and declared that he would find a giant shark for fighting.

Liu Yong was pleased to see the second machine tool returned but cautioned Overlord,

"You may not be able to handle that giant shark now. Wait until you grow stronger."

Bawang was confident and boasted,

"I'm not afraid of it. I was holding a machine tool weighing several tons in my mouth just now. It's different now. I think I can fight it."

Overlord was determined to show the giant shark who was boss, having been whipped twice before, and was eager to leave as soon as possible.

Liu Yong weighed the situation and advised, "Be careful. Fight if you win, run if you can't win. Play by ear."

"Master, I know," Bawang replied, and Overlord took a deep breath before plunging into the water with his giant spear. He quickly increased his speed to over 130 knots and swam toward RB.

With Bawang's incredible swimming speed, the distance of 600 to 700 nautical miles would only take part of the night, and he would reach that sea area again within a few hours without stopping along the way.

The seawater was pitch black, with only a glimmer here and there. Although it impacted Overlord, his keen perception was not affected by light.

He could see everything within 300 meters clearly, and even hundreds of meters away were still visible despite the effect of light and darkness. Only thousands of meters away would the clarity be affected.

After traveling for several hours, Overlord wasn't tired, only a little hungry.

He searched around but couldn't find the giant shark. Overlord decided to hunt for food and filled his stomach before resuming his search. However, he still couldn't find the huge shark.

Overlord wondered if the giant shark had escaped or wasn't in that sea area. He searched for it thoroughly, but after 10 to 20 more minutes of searching, he still didn't find it.

"The owner said that sharks have relatively poor eyesight, but they have a keen sense of smell.They can smell blood from tens of kilometers away. Do you want to use this to attract the giant shark?"

Liu Yong suggested.

Bawang, who had the intelligence of a twelve- or thirteen-year-old child, quickly devised a plan. Within a few minutes, he caught a big fish weighing several hundred catties.

After killing the big fish, Overlord didn't eat it. Instead, he used his sharp claws to smash it into pieces, causing blood to drip into the water.

The seawater gradually turned light red as almost all of the big fish's blood melted into it.

Bawang, after finishing the fish in just a few bites, moved about 300 meters away while remaining within Overlord's super perception range.

Overlord remained motionless, waiting for the giant shark to appear. This was a typical wait-and-see tactic.

As soon as the giant shark showed up, he would launch a lightning-fast sneak attack. Overlord knew that facing the massive shark head-on might not be wise, given the shark's intelligence.

For several minutes, the sea was quiet except for the occasional passing fish or other marine creatures.

Bawang remained patiently and attentively, waiting for the giant shark to appear.

After about seven or eight minutes, a shark showed up, but it was not the giant shark that Overlord was waiting for.

This shark was relatively giant, around five or six meters long, but it differed from the one he sought.

The giant shark he sought was at least thirty to forty meters long.

The shark had come to this location attracted by the scent of blood. It swam around, searching for potential prey with the same scent, but ultimately found none. Gradually, it disappeared from sight.

Meanwhile, the Overlord was waiting patiently for the giant shark to arrive.

Despite waiting for over thirty minutes, the shark failed to show up. Instead, other ferocious fish appeared, but none of them were what the Overlord was hoping for.

It won't be appearing. Where could it have gone? Is it possible that it's not in this area?"

The Overlord pondered, feeling a tinge of disappointment. After waiting longer and seeing no sign of the giant shark, the Overlord decided to depart.

As it turned out, the Overlord's suspicions were correct; the giant shark was not in the area. Instead, it was more than a hundred nautical miles away from the Overlord's location on the seashore.

Perhaps the giant shark had developed a taste for human flesh. The previous evening, it attacked a yacht, killing two people while the rest escaped in terror.

The shark had devoured the two victims and remained in the shallow waters nearby, likely waiting until dawn to hunt again.

Meanwhile, Liu Yong was at work, seated in his boss's chair, chatting with Bawang.

When he heard that the giant shark had not been found, he was both surprised and relieved.

When facing such a behemoth, he had been worried about the Overlord's safety.

After learning that Bawang employed the wait-and-see strategy, Liu Yong was pleased. Bawang was a smart shark and knew how to plan its approach.

"Overlord, you're amazing! Don't be too hasty. That giant shark won't be able to escape forever. Wait a few more days until you've grown to 40 or 50 tons, and then go after it,"

Liu Yong suggested.

The Overlord agreed,

"Okay, Master. I'll wait a few more days until I've grown to 40 or even 50 tons before I look for it. If I'm bigger than 50 tons, I might be able to take it on head-to-head. For now, at a little over 30 tons, my strength is still lacking."

After conversing with Bawang for a while, Liu Yong also pondered where the giant shark had disappeared to.

He found it quite unusual that it was nowhere to be found in that particular sea area.

Later that day, Liu Yong received a call from Ding Wen, who asked if they could meet for lunch.

Ding Wen had just returned to Huahai City after being away in the capital and needed to prepare for the start of classes at Huahai University the following day.

Liu Yong offered to treat him to lunch, but Ding Wen insisted on finding a place and sending the location to him.

They agreed to discuss the details when they met.
