Chapter 989: Section 643: The Fish and the Fisherman (Part 2)
Of course, Mr. Meng couldn’t possibly eat the Sea Clan. The Thanan people had a trade alliance with the Sea Clan—Thanan would sell metal ingots to the Sea Clan, while the Sea Clan taught them how to safely navigate this sea and sold some marine specialties to the Thanan.
It’s just like the trade between the Sea Clan and the Farol Principality. The only difference is that the Thanan fleets could barely handle a fraction of the goods, whereas Malin’s side could purchase at least 50% of the Sea Clan’s surplus marine products.
This Sea Clan member looked strong and vigorous, but he was essentially just a half-grown youth. After discovering the fishhook, he originally wanted to cut the fishing line, but he couldn’t resist Jason, this eccentric genius, and in his own words, he felt something touch the hook.
"My sensors don’t lie to me!" Jason looked incredibly proud.
"My military-grade sensors detected the shadow under the sea much earlier, and I even reminded you," Sostak No.3 said while scrutinizing the Sea Clan member. "I truly didn’t expect that these aquarium-dwelling pets could survive to this day and even develop a society and civilization."
"What do you mean?" Mr. Meng could understand what Sostak No.3 was saying, but his question was doomed to go unanswered because Sostak No.3 merely glanced at him, muttered something under his breath, and turned his head away.
Malin, however, caught it—"Carbon monkeys after the Great Destruction."
Malin immediately slapped Sostak No.3 on the head. "Apologize to Mr. Meng and explain what you meant by pets."
Sostak No.3 turned around and realized it was Malin who slapped his head. This little rascal immediately pouted.
