Chapter 231 - Blood Bait

"Burp~~"

"No, I can't eat anymore!"

Paso, who had a round belly, slumped in a chair, burping and waving his hands to indicate that he had had enough.

"Captain, am I dazzled?"

The maid holding the sample in her mouth looked a little dull, "What you just brought back was actually just a guy who fainted from hunger, right? It's definitely not the kind of guy who's covered in blood, has countless broken bones, and looks like he's about to die, right? "

"So, what happened?"

The chef who came out of the kitchen after washing his hands was also surprised, "Originally, he is indeed about to die!"

As an amateur doctor on the ship, he was the one who treated the injuries of Paso who was brought back by Vlad before. He knew the extent of Paso's injuries best. To put it bluntly, if anything went wrong, the man would die. But now, only a few dozen minutes have passed, and this man is already devouring food in front of the dining table. It can be said that apart from Vlad, who has seen Paso's recovery with his own eyes, everyone else were shocked.

"Amazing!"

Serena murmured to herself and said, "You can actually eat better than the captain!"

"Captain, did you do something?"

Enel said this, very surprised. After all, he and Vlad brought this person back together, but now he has almost recovered in the blink of an eye. No matter how you look at it, it is amazing!

"What happened?"

Vlad said, "I'm curious too!"

"So you've done eating now!"

Vlad smiled and said, "You can start speaking, right?"

"ah?"

Paso suddenly jolted and came to his senses, "Oh, okay, I've had enough!"

"Oh come on!"

Vlad slapped his forehead and said helplessly, "Is your ear still damaged?"

"Ah? Really? Sorry, I was distracted!"

Paso apologized naturally, "I'm sorry!"

"Forget it, I almost know what kind of person you are!"

Vlad sighed and asked, "What I want to ask is,"

"What on earth is that gummy? Of course I won't force if you don't wanna talk. Can you answer it?"

"Oh? Really? So this is what sir wanted to ask?"

Paso suddenly understood and said, "There is no problem, and it is not something that cannot be said!"

"Really? Great! I'm super curious!"

Vlad moved a chair and sat next to Paso, looking very expectant.

"Where should I start? how about from the reason why this island has undergone such a big change?"

Paso looked at the ceiling and recalled, "That was a long, long time ago!"

"It starts with my teacher. My teacher's name is Bodo. He is a biologist. He first came to this island about twenty years ago. At that time, the island was still a poor little town. The fishing village was not as prosperous as it is now!"

"I was an orphan at that time. I was alive only because of the help from the villagers in the village. I was really poor at that time. It was so poor that pirates would not be interested in plundering even if they came here."

"Until one day I met a man with a child on the coast,"

Paso showed a warm smile in the sky, "He looks messy, with an unkempt beard and disheveled hair. He is an old man. He seems very weird! But he is actually a very good person!"

"I'm very curious about him. He's such a weird person. He takes the kid next to him around the island every day and doesn't interact with anyone. I don't know what he's doing!"

"I followed them every day. Of course I couldn't hide anything, but the old man didn't care at all. Gradually, I became bolder and started to dare to follow them all day long!"

"Later, naturally, I became the teacher's disciple. I learned that the teacher was a biologist and that he was studying a magical existence called bloodline factor!"

"Bloodline factor?"

The chef was a little surprised and said that he knew about this thing. He had heard about such a thing when he was in Germa. The kingdom's top scientist, Gaji, really used this technology to create several monster-like offspring.

"Yes, the blood factor really involves the essence of human beings, or in other words, technology that is playing god !"

Paso said with some emotion, "Technology that can interfere with the human body from the genetic level!"

"So, what then?"

Vlad asked, his eyes lighting up.

"Then! Another kid, um, Jack, and I are studying under the teacher!"

Paso said, "Time passed very quickly, and soon the teacher became familiar with the people on the island. The enthusiastic fishermen had a good relationship with the teacher. They often held banquets together, even though they were very poor, and although the teacher could not drink, but, it's really enjoyable!"

"So the teacher decided to do something for this poor fishing village, especially after he knew that there was a precious fish in the deep sea of this island, he finally knew what he could do!"

"So he created the bait?"

Vlad laughed.

"Well, using blood factor technology, we created a bait that can attract Pollock fish from thousands of meters deep sea!"

Paso said, "The process is not easy, because it is too difficult to know the characteristics of the Pollock fish. The teacher has never seen this kind of fish, which is very rare. How can they know its characteristics?"

"But things always turn around. A Pollock fish that was suddenly caught broke the silence! It was already difficult to convince the villagers who wanted to sell it directly to make money, but in the end, the future described by the teacher moved these Villagers, this fish was used as experimental material!"

"So, the fishing bait was invented!"

Paso said.

"Why do you look so unhappy?"

Vlad said, "Wouldn't that be a great thing for Pollock Island?"

"Yes, Pollock Island has become rich because of this!"

Paso said, "But, this bait is not perfect!"

"The reason why fishing bait can attract Pollock fish is because this fish has a characteristic, a very cruel characteristic!"

"This kind of fish is a solitary fish. They rarely encounter each other except for breeding. Once they meet, they will fight to the death. Their favorite food is the flesh and blood of the same kind! Even if they are separated by thousands of meters of sea , these fish can also easily smell the blood of their own kind!"

"so--"

Vlad understood.

"The only thing that can attract Pollock fish is the flesh and blood of the same kind!"

Paso murmured to himself, "In other words, the so-called bait that has been attracting this extremely precious fish has always used blood factor technology to transform its physique to a level close to that of a Pollock fish."

"The Pollock Bloodline Factor!!!"

Paso said with a wry smile.
