Universe Infinite Canteen-Chapter 717: Breaking Through the Third Layer
Ma Lu was somewhat surprised, and also extended his pinky finger, pulling on that fluffy little pinky.
After that, he tried releasing Rabbit Man's arms, while remaining cautiously on guard. However, the latter did not attack him immediately as before after regaining mobility.
He just stood silently to the side, his button-sewn eyes gazing at Ma Lu.
Ma Lu thought for a moment and tossed back the chainsaw he had taken from him, but still kept the Harpoon Gun in his hand.
Rabbit Man received the chainsaw but made no move.
Ma Lu then sighed in relief; he didn't know if Rabbit Man would keep the agreement between them, but at least this was a good start.
Then, as per the plan, Ma Lu picked up the Gravity Shoes and then killed Annie.
After acquiring the Flame Sprayer, he simply returned the Harpoon Gun to Rabbit Man as well.
Ma Lu figured it out—after all, as the saying goes, don't use a person you doubt, don't doubt a person you use—he needs Rabbit Man's cooperation to take down the group guarding the emergency ladder, so he couldn't limit Rabbit Man's combat power.
After all, if Rabbit Man really did betray him, he could just reset everything, and it's better to reset sooner than later.
Upon getting back his equipment, Rabbit Man lifted the Harpoon Gun, briefly checked it, and after confirming there were no issues, tucked it back away. He then proceeded towards the emergency ladder, but Ma Lu stopped him.
"Hey, wait, I need to go somewhere else first."
He hadn't forgotten the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish in the warehouse, but this time when the two reached behind the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, Ma Lu was about to let it taste the power of the flames, but Rabbit Man held his hand, which was holding the sprayer.
The latter shook his head, then lifted his Harpoon Gun, and before launching an attack, Rabbit Man instinctively pressed the play button on his Walkman, but no music played.
He then remembered that the cassette had been confiscated by the person next to him, so he shook his head, and used the chainsaw to knock on the shelf.
The Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, hearing the noise, turned its head in confusion.
Almost at the same moment, Rabbit Man pulled the trigger, and the harpoon shot out, piercing the lower jaw of the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish!
Something miraculous happened; the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, which had been about to charge and headbutt, suddenly stiffened, and Rabbit Man had already pulled the rope and rushed up.
He jumped onto the head of the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, rode on it, and started cutting downwards with the chainsaw.
The Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish twisted its body, but only struggled a few times before quickly becoming motionless.
Such skill!
Ma Lu was astonished; from the moment Rabbit Man attacked the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish to its demise, only seven seconds had passed.
Ma Lu, who had already reset many times and considered himself very familiar with the attacking methods of Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, could not achieve such speed in killing.
And more importantly, the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish killed by Rabbit Man remained very intact, with no traces left by the flames from the Flame Sprayer.
This made Ma Lu look at him with new respect, then Ma Lu took out his Chef's Knife, split the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish in two, put half of it into his Collection Bag, then pointed at the other half and said to Rabbit Man.

"The clue was provided by me, the action taken by you, let's split it half, you don't have any objections, do you?"
Rabbit Man nodded, then pointed at Ma Lu's Collection Bag.
"You mean to put it here first?"
Rabbit Man nodded again.
"Fine, I'll hold on to it for you for now. I'll give it back to you on the 4th Level," Ma Lu said.
Although he harvested half as much, the quality had improved, and if calculated properly, Ma Lu did not lose out.
He had just witnessed the entire process of Rabbit Man killing the Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish. If shameless enough, he could reset alone and sneak back to kill.
But there was no need. Compared to half a Space Blue Striped Horseface Fish, Ma Lu was more curious about Rabbit Man himself.
According to Annie's words, this guy had participated in quite a few fishing sessions and had some insights into the fish of this Plane.
Furthermore, their current cooperation was smoother than expected, perhaps they could turn this wild team into a permanent team.
Of course, the prerequisite was to deal with the group blocking the door first.
The initial preparations were almost done, Ma Lu didn't delay any further and headed straight for the emergency ladder.
Before acting, he informed Rabbit Man of the location of the five people and they agreed on a battle plan.
Ma Lu left the two enemies at the top of the ladder to Rabbit Man, while he himself dealt with the other three.
The two launched the attack, yet their first collaboration was somewhat unskilled, Ma Lu had just roasted the guy behind the electrical box, when Rabbit Man rushed towards the ladder.
At that moment, the two hidden in the house also showed their heads, and they were very close to Rabbit Man.
This caused Ma Lu to hesitate for a moment when turning his gun, because if he fired now, the flames could likely brush Rabbit Man whose fur was highly flammable.
And it was this hesitation that allowed the enemy to attack first, a red line appeared on Ma Lu's neck, and in the next moment, his head separated from his body.
Rabbit Man had to turn his Harpoon Gun to deal with the guy holding the Light Sword.
His position was clever; one Fish Spear hit two people, but sadly, he was hit by a bullet flying from above the next moment.
Ma Lu saw this, then his vision plunged into darkness.
After resetting again, he repeated the same process and with Rabbit Man made their way back to the emergency ladder. This time, Ma Lu advised Rabbit Man to charge later, and successfully killed three, but because Rabbit Man was late.
The result was that one of the two on the ladder survived, and Rabbit Man was unfortunately shot, then Ma Lu wielding the Flame Sprayer also charged up, avenging Rabbit Man.
Looking at the ladder close at hand, Ma Lu hesitated.
By rights, he could now leave the Third Layer, but looking down at Rabbit Man's body on the ground, Ma Lu sighed.
Although this damned rabbit had killed him several times in previous rounds, after forming an alliance, he proved to be quite trustworthy.
At least he kept his word and even showed remarkable fishing skills before, Ma Lu preferred topreserve his life.
After a fierce mental struggle, Ma Lu deliberately stepped on the trip wire of the trap mine, sending himself back 35 minutes.
Combining the experiences from the previous two failures, Ma Lu thought of a way for Rabbit Man to charge from the ceiling.
This way he would not be harmed by the Flame Sprayer and would not miss the opportunity by charging too late.
The decision proved very wise; although Rabbit Man was still hit by a bullet, it only grazed his arm. After bandaging, it was not a big deal.
They finally won!
Ma Lu looked at the bodies lying around, his face showing delight, not only for successfully clearing the path to other layers but also for acquiring a large batch of potent gear.
