Chapter 316 Big Star
Chapter 316 Big Star
"I'm famous!"
Benbolba came down from the big rock stage and was immediately surrounded by fishmen fans.
Most fishmen are tuneless when singing and uncoordinated when dancing. A performing genius like Benbolba who is proficient in singing and dancing is simply an outlier that only appears once in thousands of years in the fishmen.
In addition, although Benbolba is not yet an adult, he has a row of bright orange dorsal fins and a body of bright sky blue fish scales. He is a real fishman.
Benbolba has become a rising star, and his popularity has surpassed that of Brak, who just won the Arena Championship.
Enthusiastic fishmen fans put all kinds of delicacies, jewelry, handicrafts, etc. as gifts and stuffed them into Benbolba's hands.
Benbolba received so many gifts that he couldn't hold them in his hands.
"It's so cool to be a star!"
Benbolba was already flying with joy in his heart, but he had to maintain a cool attitude on the outside.
More and more fish fans gathered around, and they became more and more fanatical.
Benbol Ba was surrounded and couldn't move.
Fortunately, a team of patrolling fishmen happened to pass by. They kicked the fanatical fish fans one by one and rescued Benbol Ba.
After escaping from the encirclement, Benbol Ba hurried to the fishman's hut.
Benbol Ba has his own fishman's hut, which is in the elite fishman residential area of Ratchet Town.
All the fishman fans were driven away by the patrolling fishmen, and Benbol Ba walked back staggeringly with a pile of gifts. Benbol Ba had a strange feeling while walking on the road. He felt as if someone was following him all the time.
Benbol Ba turned around and looked back several times along the way, but every time there was nothing behind him, and no suspicious people were found.
"Is it my illusion?" Benbol Ba wondered.
Seeing that he was about to enter the elite fishman's residential area, where there were special patrolling fishmen responsible for patrolling, Benbol Ba's worried heart was relieved a lot.
At this time, a call came from behind.
"Benbolba, look here!"
Benbolba turned his head and saw a little fishman waving at him on the side of the road.
This little fishman had bright green fish scales and looked unfamiliar. Benbolba was sure that he didn't know this little fishman.
"Could it be that this little fishman has been following me all the way?" Benbolba was puzzled.
"Wait, this is a little fishman with green scales all over his body! Could it be the killer's accomplice who the town is looking for to assassinate Jagu? The killer's accomplice must also be a killer!" Benbolba was stunned. He never expected that he would be followed by a killer.
Benbolba's guess was correct. This green little fishman was Finjie.
Finjie saw Benbolba turned his head and looked very excited. He immediately reached out and took out a black shell from his waist.
"What is he doing with a shell?"
Finjie's hand shook when he took the shell, and the shell flew towards Benbolba.
"Ah! It's not a shell, it's a dart!"
Benbolba was so scared that he threw the gift in his hand into the air and ran away.
"Murder!"
"Woo, help!"
Benbol Ba cried for help while crawling back to the elite fishman settlement.
The nearby patrol fishmen heard the cry for help and rushed over. They only saw Benbol Ba crying in fear, and Finger had disappeared.
The overly frightened Benbol Ba touched his whole body and found that he was not injured.
"Fortunately, this little fishman didn't aim well and the dart didn't hit me. I almost lost my life. I hurried back to hide."
After returning to his fishman hut, he quickly put down all the water grass mats hanging around the platform of the hut and covered the hut tightly.
Benbol Ba was still in shock and hid in his fishman hut and never dared to come out again.
Benbol Ba lay in the fishman hut and secretly observed the situation outside through the gaps in the water grass mats. He saw patrol fishmen passing by from time to time.
"With so many patrolling fishmen walking around, the little fishman should have escaped."
Just when Benbol Ba felt a little relieved, he saw an amazing scene.
The water grass mat hanging on the fishman's hut in front of him moved without wind, as if it was pulled open by someone, and then quickly put down again.
Not long after, the same scene was staged in a nearby fishman's hut with a water grass mat hanging.
"It's over, the killer didn't escape. The boss said he was a fishman ambusher, and he is now looking for me in each fishman's hut in stealth mode!"
Benbol Ba was scared to death.
At this time, the patrolling fishman had just walked away. If he rushed out of the fishman's hut, he would definitely be discovered by the other party immediately.
Benbol Ba buried his head in the floor in despair, hoping that the other party would not find him.
"Woo woo, I didn't expect that on my first day of fame, there would be a killer trying to murder me."
"If I had known this, I should have worked hard to improve my level. If I were a little higher now, I wouldn't have lost the chance to escape."
Benbolba suddenly regretted it, but there is no regret medicine in the world.
After a while, Benbolba, who was buried in the floor, found that there was no movement. He began to feel lucky that the killer might have missed his fishman hut.
However, the opposite happened.
There was a crash, and it was the sound of a pile of things falling on the floor.
Benbolba looked behind him and found that the green little fishman was standing in his fishman hut.
"Ben Bol Ba, these are the things you just threw away."
Fenjie smiled and looked at Benbolba who buried his head on the floor with a very innocent and bright smile.
"Ugh! I'm dead!"
Ben Bolba screamed, and then his eyes turned white, foaming at the mouth and he fainted on the floor.
Fenjie saw Benbolba suddenly fainted and panicked for a moment. He quickly ran over and hurriedly helped Ben Bolba up.
Soon, Fenjie seemed to have discovered something. He hit Benbolba on the back of the head with a sap, causing him to really faint.
Ben Bolba tried to pretend to be dead by relying on his acting skills, but was immediately discovered by Fenjie.
After knocking out Bullba, Fenjie observed the situation outside the fishman's hut, then put Bullba on his shoulders and ran away.
…
By the time Benbolba woke up, it was already dark.
Fortunately, the murlocs had excellent night vision, and Benbolba found himself lying under dense thorns and vines.
"This should be a gravel pit, where mushrooms are grown in the town." Ben Bolba recognized it.
Ben Bolba touched his big head that was knocked unconscious and struggled to get up.
Pushing aside the hanging vines, Benbolba wanted to get out, but he ran into the little fishman Fenjie who was about to get in.
"Our Benbolba is awake." Fenjie said with a smile.
"What do you want to do to me?"
Benbolba was so frightened that he backed away again and again, and finally sat down on the ground.
"Let's talk about it after dinner, Benbolba." Fenjie said.
Finger came in, holding a plate with food on it.
"I brought these foods from the hotel. There were many people there, so I could only take some secretly," Fenjie said.
"Don't come near me!" Ben Bolba shouted.
Benbolba hurriedly touched his waist, took out the [Magic Star Mace], grabbed it in his hand, and pointed the weapon at Fenjie.
"Don't be like this, Ben Bolba is a star now." Fenjie said and approached Ben Bolba.
He easily snatched the hammer from Ben Bolba's hand with one hand.
"Woo, don't kill me." Ben Bolba cried.
"I didn't mean to kill you," Finger said.
"Aren't you going to kill me?" Ben Bolba asked.
"Of course, why should I kill you." Finger said.
"Then why are you following me? Why are you looking for me from fish-man hut to hut? Why are you knocking me out and bringing me here?" Ben Bolba asked repeatedly.
"Because I'm your fan." Fenjie said.
"Huh?" Ben Boerba couldn't wrap his head around the idea that he had such a fan.
"Ben Bolba, you are the only fish-man I have ever heard who can sing without going out of tune. You sing much better than Magoffin, who claims to be the supreme singer of the island in the middle of the lake." The little fish-man Fenjie said excitedly.
"Huh???" Ben Bolba was still confused.
"After tonight we will go to Gadgetzan, which is the most developed place in the entertainment industry on the continent of Kalimdor. Only by going there can you become a big star." Fenjie said with longing.
"I'm not going, I want to stay in Ratchet Town." Ben Bolba said.
"Why don't you go to Gadgetzan to make a name for yourself if you're so good at singing, and you stay here as a little secretary?" Fenjie was anxious.
"I will stay in Ratchet Town." Benbolba insisted.
"I'm doing this for your own good. If you want to be a big star, you have to be ambitious." Fenjie put the dagger against Ben Bolba's neck.
Ben Bolba was helpless and thought that even if I become a big star, it is my own business. Why are you so worried?
"Very well, let's have dinner." Fenjie said with a smile.
In a "peaceful" atmosphere, Ben Bolba and Fenjie had dinner together.
After eating, Fenjie cleared away his plate and prepared to leave.
"Let me go out and see. Should I continue to knock you out or tie you up?" Fenjie asked.
"I don't want either," said Ben Bolba.
"You have to choose one, and it's for your own good," Finger said.
Ben Bolba didn't want to be knocked unconscious, nor did he want to be tied up. He rolled his eyes and had an idea.
"I haven't eaten enough yet. There are many kinds of mushrooms growing in this patch of thorns and vines. Please pick some for me." Ben Bolba said.
"Mushroom hunting is a waste of time," Finger said.
"I need to eat more mushrooms so that my voice will be good. This is the secret to my ability to sing well," said Ben Bolba.
"Okay, I'm going to pick mushrooms." Fenjie said.
When Fenjie heard that Ben Bolba said that eating mushrooms was good for his throat, he immediately took action.
I have to say that Fenjie was very fast. He didn't waste too much time and came back with a bunch of mushrooms.
When the murlocs in Ratchet Town were picking mushrooms, they would occasionally find [Poison Cap Mushrooms] among them. Ben Bolba rummaged through a bunch of mushrooms, but unfortunately he did not find [Poison Cap Mushrooms].
Ben Bolba's original idea was to trick Fenjie into eating [Poison Cap Mushroom], which would cause him to have diarrhea for a few days, so that he, the killer, would not be able to kill people.
While rummaging, Ben Bolba accidentally discovered two colorful mushrooms. The two mushrooms were almost identical in appearance, with only slightly different spots in color.
Benbolba recognized the two mushrooms as [Chronic Toadstool] and [Blighted Toadstool]. He had seen these two mushrooms when he and Yang Yi went to the wild boar settlement.
"Let's eat these mushrooms together."
Benbolba seemingly randomly divided the mushrooms into two parts. He quietly gave the part containing the [Withering Toxin] to Finger, and kept the [Slow Toxin] for himself.
