Chapter 1691: Dont Eat Fish, Eat Crabs

There were cases of killer whales in marine parks attacking and even killing people.

But that was rare. Furthermore, investigations confirmed that the killer whales were ill-treated.

For gigantic killer whales, a marine park was like a house that was just ten to twenty square meters in size.

They were restricted to this small house until they died of old age, and were forced to perform all sorts of actions that went against their nature.

They were smart to begin with, and were social animals, like humans.

It would be unbearable for a person to be locked up at home for a few days, let alone be tormented for decades.

Shut-ins might be able to go without leaving the house for months, but killer whales couldnt go online to chat, and still had to work.

Luke knew what this creature was like even if it had just killed a seal, he wasnt afraid of being bitten by it.

It looked very tragic for the seal, but they often caught penguins for food.

They didnt eat killer whales because they couldnt defeat them.

This was the animal world it was survival of the fittest.

The little fatty swimming around them was only four meters long, and was clearly a kid. It was very curious and lively.

A few adult killer whales swam around slowly not far away.

The seal kill just now had been training for their kid.

Killer whales were smart and social creatures.

Of course, they always fought as a group and never lost.

Apart from humans, they had no natural enemies.

Compared with Selina, who was thinking about how to eat the fish, Luke liked the little fatty that was next to him.

Many black and white things were quite cute, like pandas.

Seeing how friendly the little fatty was, he simply used Mental Communication to play with the little guy, then reached out to scratch its chin several times.

He treated it like a dog.

Affected by Mental Communication, the fatty wasnt scared. Instead, it leaned in closer and even started to nuzzle Luke.

Selina sighed regretfully. Fine, we wont eat this fish.

A moment later, the fatty finally left.

It had been summoned by its mother to go back and continue its journey. It couldnt play with this friendly person in front of it.

It waved its tail in farewell and then swiftly disappeared into the dark sea.

Without the cute kid around, Luke and Selina sped up and soon reached the seabed 850 meters down.

It was completely dark.

However, their armor had multiple sensor functions, and Lukes Elementary Sound Wave could also be used as a sonar.

Both of them were shocked by what they saw.

Selina couldnt help but cry out, Oh my G.o.d, is this heaven?

There were king crabs all over the seabed.

Selina vividly remembered how each of these big guys cost hundreds of dollars.

In order to eat these, she had paid the Chinese owner of the seafood shop in San Gabriel Valley a lot of money.

She had still been poor at that time, and her heart had ached.

In front of her were king crabs on the seabed, as far as the eye could see. Was it hundreds of thousands, or millions of them?

Even if she was better at math than Gold Nugget, she couldnt count them all.

Selina subconsciously scanned them with her armor. A number popped up on the screen, and it soon reached five figures.

She decisively ordered the scan to stop, since it was meaningless.

It made no difference to her whether it was 10,000 or 20,000. In any case, she couldnt eat them all.

She turned around and looked at Luke. Do you want this today?

Okay. Luke chuckled and took out a black tube from his waist. He activated it, and a large net shot out.

It was designed to deal with large monsters like the undead, and could be used to catch king crabs.

Handing it to Selina, Luke said with a smile, Just grab whatever you want.

Selina cheered and rushed down with the net. Mine! Mine! Gold Nuggets! Lukes! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!

Luke:

Too young and too simple, young lady.

Thinking that, his Telekinesis stretched out and locked onto the king crabs at the bottom of the ocean. In the next moment, they were stored in s.p.a.ce 2.

The robots that had just finished counting money got back to work again. At Osiriss command, they slaughtered the king crabs.

20 minutes later, Selina filled up the two big nets that Luke had given her.

She said regretfully, Too bad we dont have enough equipment. It looks like these can only hold 200.

Luke said, Thats enough. Youll only eat two or three of these in one meal.

If it wasnt for Gold Nugget, he wouldnt have let her catch so much.

Selina asked, How much would these cost if we sold them?

Luke was amused. Well probably only be able to feed them to pigs.

Selina: What? Are you kidding?

She had spent 200 dollars per crab back then, because live crabs were very expensive.

But frozen king crabs also fluctuated in price.

The king crabs here varied in size, but most of them were big ones which weighed more than ten pounds each.

The ones she had caught were each almost 50 pounds in size; the nets wouldve long broken if they werent specially made.

One frozen crab would be able to sell for 1,000 dollars in New York.

That was because the king crabs she had bought for 200 bucks each were only between four to ten pounds, which was one fifth of the weight of this current batch.

There were hundreds of thousands of king crabs here, which were worth more than one hundred million dollars in total.

Luke waved his hand and gestured for her to follow him. He explained, Look at this place. You should know that the prices are inflated.

Selina was skeptical. Seriously? Although there are slightly more here, its not like there would be enough for the whole world, right? Gold Nugget might be able to eat them all.

Luke chuckled. These arent the only king crabs in the world. Theyre just one type. They dont have any natural enemies because of their size and numbers, and they reproduce too quickly. Theyre already destroying the environment. King crabs arent rare. The reason there is a limit on how many can be caught is to control the quant.i.ty and raise the price.

Selina was lost for words as she looked at the king crabs below her.

A moment later, she suddenly came back to her senses. Ah, wasnt I tricked by the boss of that seafood shop then?

Luke shook his head. Not really. Prices are always controlled by big corporations. That old man didnt get his goods cheaply either. He just sold them to us for a little higher.

Hearing that, Selina finally felt better. Ill never buy this again. It turned out to be a scam.

Luke didnt think much of it. Theres no need. We just enjoy eating it; were not eating for other people to see. Theres no need to save money.

In any case, he had caught a bunch of them just now. Was it 100,000 or 200,000? There was no way to count them.

Telekinesis covered an area 100 meters in diameter, locked onto the crabs and collected them, and the seabed instantly turned quiet.
