Chapter 1017: Ice Elves (2/2)
He could feel the resistance from the cold environment, but his control over elemental energy is impeccable and he can overcome that resistance with minimum effort.
He got ready to fight and even his feathered coat started turning golden and the surrounding ice and snow vaporized in an instant.
As he was about to make a move, three people came out of the hiding,
The Ice elves.
They are all Astral Plane Initiation cultivators and they all have their hands raised in the air.
”Stop. We are the guards of Elven city. We have no ill intentions.”
”The arrows beg to differ,” Sam replied with a smirk.
”That was supposed to be a warning. It is illegal to fish in the river without permission and the arrows are part of the warning procedure. We do not know sir is that powerful, otherwise we would have revealed ourselves.”
Sam was surprised.
”Stupid local laws again.”
Sam muttered to himself and continued.
”I don't know about the permission thing, what should we do now.”
”Generally, you should be paying a fee for fishing here and you need to pay a fine if you don't have permission.”
Sam threw a spatial ring and asked.
”Is this enough?”
The guard checked the contents and was stunned.
He became speechless.
”If there is extra, would it buy me some alone time here? I would like to fish with no one here to disturb me.”
”Of course.”
Sam didn't know why the guards are so flustered because he doesn't know the scarcity of spirit stones here.
The most they could get are ice elemental spirit stones and even they are scarce as they cannot mine them comfortably. There are too many obstacles and he mindlessly gave a few million normal spirit stones.
The guards stayed a few feet away and guarded the river, while Sam just fished as he liked. He caught a bunch of carp and some krill that are growing there and placed them in an ice-cold lake within the divine dimension made of the water from the same river.
The elves are once again stunned by Sam's fishing. Sam has energy vision, so he can identify the flow of the fish within the river full of frost energy and wouldn't be limited to the normal senses, so he can catch them easily.
Soon, the cooking was done.
”Boss, the fish meat is too stiff, so I ground it and made them into fish balls after some treatment. The blood has some good frost essence and it is nowhere like normal fish blood. I made it into soup. Try it.”
Sam drank the soup and placed a fishball into his mouth.
At first, it just tasted warm in his mouth, but soon the ice elemental energy exploded in his mouth and as he swallowed he felt the cold sensation expanding all over his body.
It is a great dish.
”That is great. You are indeed a good chef. ”
He then turned to the guards who are drooling and said.
”We are actually travelers roaming realm after realm. I would like to know if there are any restrictions for hunting in the wild here.”
The guards who are so focused on the aroma of the fish soup were stunned for a second and said.
”Sir, I am sorry to say that there are a lot of restrictions. The travelers are only allowed to fish on their own. As for other types of hunting, it is not permissible to do so within the city limits.
Even the citizens cannot do that and only designated hunters for certain regions can go and hunt there.
If any traveler or foreigners want to hunt in those regions, they must seek permission from the city management and be assigned to one of the hunter teams to go there.
For your cultivation level, there is only one hunter team that you could join and there is only one place where you can hunt.
If you allow me, I will take you to the administration to complete the procedures.”
