Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 13 Fishing Accessories
Su Wang became a little hesitant for a moment.

The value of silvertail windfish meat cannot be underestimated, not only is the blessing it brings after consumption extremely powerful.

There is even a certain probability of attracting special rare fish.

It's not an extremely small probability or a small probability.

But it is a certain probability!
Su Wang was still thinking that when he became stronger, he would take out one or two pieces of fish meat and try to catch new special and rare fish.

"Try again with the sandfin flesh."

If the medium-sized jewel fish cannot be attracted, what about the small ones?
What about ultra-small or even micro?
Su Wang had experimented before,
Once the fish meat falls into the water as bait, it can no longer be stored.

Not only will the effect of eating it disappear, but even its effect as bait will dissipate on its own after 2 hours.

The entire piece of fish will become ordinary fish meat with no effect.

Unless absolutely necessary, Su Wang did not dare to use the silvertail wind fish slices easily.

In case even the silvertail fish fillet is ineffective,

That would be like stealing a chicken but losing the rice, losing both the wife and the army.

Besides, the value of the items obtained from the treasure fish is unknown.
If it is not as valuable as the silver-tailed wind fish meat, there is no need to use the silver-tailed wind fish meat.

Su Yang immediately calmed down and continued to wait for the next appearance of the treasure fish.

...

Time passed minute by minute, and soon the remaining time in the secret realm was almost half.

As time became more and more urgent, Su Wang's breathing became a little rapid.

"Could it be that we will return empty-handed?"

Su Wang couldn't help but think again whether to use the silvertail wind fish slices.

There is only half an hour left, so we have to leave some time to attract the treasure fish to appear.

If you want to use it, you have to use it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late when time is running out.

After a moment of hesitation, Su Wang decided to take a risk and use it once.

If the silver-tailed wind fish fails to attract the treasure fish this time,

Or perhaps the value of the jewel fish attracted was not enough to compensate for the loss of the silvertail bream fillets.

Then next time you get this kind of secret realm item, you don’t have to consider using this kind of rare fish meat.

Just when Su Wang was about to lift the rod and change the bait.

He didn't know if it was fate teasing him on purpose, but the reminder message that hadn't appeared for a long time appeared at this moment.

[A miniature jewelfish smelled the bait and seemed to be interested in it, heading towards the bait.]

Su Wang, who was ready to compromise, suddenly perked up.

"From this information, it seems that this miniature jewel fish came here on its own initiative."

Su Wang pursed his lips and felt a little nervous.

There seems to be a good chance of catching it this time.

As long as you catch a treasure fish, you can roughly judge the value of the items contained in the treasure fish.

It would be the best choice to decide whether to use silvertail fish fillets at that time.

Seeing hope appear, Su Wang’s inner tension grew.

Even time seemed to slow down.

With the appearance of the prompt message just now, Su Wang was very much looking forward to new good news coming out again.

Ten seconds…

Twenty seconds…

Thirty seconds…

It was only 30 seconds, but Su Wang even felt it was more unbearable than minutes.

Just as he was becoming increasingly anxious, a new prompt message finally appeared.

The miniature jewelfish has come near the bait, showing slight interest and hesitating whether to swallow it.

"coming!"

At this moment, Su Wang's heart almost jumped into his throat.

There seemed to be a clear and audible sound of the heart beating in my ears.

This time, the new prompt message did not make Su Wang wait too long.

In less than 5 seconds, several new prompts appeared one after another.

[The miniature jewel fish couldn't resist the temptation and decided to swallow the bait in front of it.]

[The miniature jewelfish has swallowed the bait. The bait can last for 10 seconds.]

[The Micro Treasure Fish has taken the bait. You have 10 seconds to drag it out of the water. Once the time runs out, the Micro Treasure Fish will trigger its ability to escape the hook.]

As the last prompt message appeared, Su Wang suddenly felt the fishing rod trembling.

Su Wang, who had been holding his breath for a long time, naturally would not miss the opportunity in front of him.

He suddenly lifted the fishing rod in his hand, and a piece of fish information appeared in his sight.

【Miniature Treasure Fish】

Fish species rarity: mysterious fish.

Strength: 1.

Endurance: 469/500.

A mysterious fish that lives only in secret places, with treasures in its belly.

...

The Micro Jumbo Fish has only 1 point of Strength, but a stamina value of 500 points.

The important thing is that you only have 10 seconds to use up these stamina points.

Among the three major Iron-level professions,

I'm afraid that except for the most lethal speargunner profession, it is difficult for fishermen and anglers to meet this condition.

The damage was not perceived to be enough to take down this tiny treasure fish within 10 seconds.

Su Wang immediately used his imbalance talent to further enhance his strength attribute.

With the strength attribute doubled, the damage finally met the requirements.

With 80 points of stamina damage per second, it only takes 7 seconds to take down this miniature treasure fish.

Su Wang couldn't help but feel fortunate that the micro treasure fish only had a high endurance value.

If the strength is also ridiculously high, then there is really nothing we can do.

...

As one's own endurance is depleted, a feeling of fatigue due to physical exhaustion follows.

Su Wang immediately took out several portions of sandfin fish fillet from the fish hold and stuffed them into his mouth one by one.

While filling the empty stomach, it also replenishes the consumed endurance.

As time passed, the miniature jewelfish's endurance plummeted.

Before he could eat a few servings of sandfin fish, he saw that the endurance of the miniature treasure fish had dropped below the bottom line.

As the force from the fishing rod suddenly loosened, a round red fish broke out of the water.

Only after the miniature jewel fish landed on the deck of the ship did Su Wang see its appearance clearly.

From head to tail, it is less than a finger long, worthy of the name of miniature.

It has a round belly, no scales, and its entire body is like red crystal.

The overall shape is somewhat similar to the pet goldfish I raised as a child.

There was not much time left in the secret realm, and Su Wang took away the last bit of endurance of the miniature treasure fish with a flick of his finger.

"It all depends on how valuable this precious fish is."

The moment the decomposable information appeared, Su Wang immediately chose to decompose it.

There was a flash of light, and only one object appeared before him.

[Micro Treasure Fish Belly*1]: A habitat gifted by the world. After opening it, you can obtain certain resources and 1 ordinary treasure.

...

"No fish meat or other materials have been extracted. It seems all the valuable materials are in the fish's belly."

Su Wang immediately picked up the precious fish belly and chose to open it.

[Store in the fish hold 200 pieces of wood, 200 pieces of steel, 50 pieces of soil, 200 pieces of blue fish coins, and 1 piece of common fishing gear accessory.]

There are a total of 5 items that can be obtained from the treasure fish belly.

Su Wang was not unfamiliar with three of them, but he had never seen Xirang and ordinary fishing gear accessories before.

After opening the fish hold, Su Wang quickly found the two new items.

First there was a lump of mud-like object.

【Xi soil】

Value: A material required to expand the dock, which can be obtained from bronze-level and above fish output.

...

Xirang is a material similar to wood and steel plates, but the requirements for obtaining it are slightly higher.

This is also the reason why I have never seen it before.

"Since Xirang is also a resource material, then fishing gear accessories must be the so-called treasures."

Su Wang hurriedly looked at another small wooden box with a red treasure fish pattern printed on it.

【Ordinary fishing gear accessories】

Quality: Ordinary treasure.

Function: Touching and integrating into fishing gear can transform a certain part of the fishing gear and enhance the effect of the fishing gear. The number of parts of the fishing gear that can be transformed is 4.

Tip: After using and modifying the fishing gear accessories, you need to replace the accessories in the same part before you can take out the treasure.

...

"Renovation of fishing gear accessories?"

Judging from the information, this seems to be a treasure that can affect the effectiveness of fishing gear.

The importance of fishing gear is self-evident.

In order to find out the specific function of this treasure, Su Wang immediately prepared to modify his fishing gear.

Holding the fishing rod in one hand and the wooden box in the other, they approached each other.

Just as the wooden box touched the fishing rod, it turned into a stream of light and instantly merged into the fishing rod.

Several pieces of information suddenly appeared in Su Wang's sight.

[Fishing gear has been upgraded with standard accessories. Please select the enhanced part of the fishing gear.]

Main Pole - Each time you consume your own stamina, the consumption is reduced by 10%, and there is a 10% chance that no stamina will be consumed.

Reel - The triggering frequency of the profession's innate skills is increased by 20%.

Fishing Line - Increases the length of the fishing line by 10 meters.

Fishhook - Each time the target's stamina is lost, there is a 10% chance of causing double the loss.

...

"I see……"

Su Wang's eyes lit up slightly as he pondered which part to choose for transformation.

Modifications to the four parts of fishing gear can bring different effects.

Strengthening the main rod increases its durability, and the reel can reduce the triggering time of the innate skill from 1 second to 0.8 seconds.

The fishhook has a similar effect to a critical hit.

Only the effect of the fishing line is unclear, but increasing its length by 10 meters can increase the fishing range.

However, if the force is greater than the target, the hook cannot be removed, and the length of the fishing line seems a bit useless.

"The fishing line is excluded for now."

Su Wang suspected that the length of the fishing line must have some external influence.

However, there is only one accessory for the treasure fishing gear, and he doesn't dare to gamble it on the fishing line.

Of the remaining three parts, Su Wang prefers the main rod or the reel.

The main rod can steadily reduce the loss of stamina, and the reel can steadily increase the stamina damage to the target.

They are the most stable among the four parts.

As for the fishhook, after modification, it also has the effect of increasing endurance and damage, but it is unstable.

After thinking about it, Su Wang decided to give up.

This is also related to his next plans.

There is nearly half of the secret realm time left, and the treasure fish can also produce treasures that enhance fishing gear.

Su Wang didn't want to miss this opportunity.

At present, many fishermen have reached the second-level vehicle, and their leading advantage has been reduced a lot.

I can't guarantee whether I can enter the top ten in the daily fishing task ranking tomorrow.

If I can get a second treasure fish in this secret realm, I will get another fishing gear accessory.

That will bring about a qualitative change in one's own strength!

Imagine if the main rod and the reel could be modified at the same time, the combination of the two effects would produce an effect of 1+1 greater than 2.

"Remodel the reel first and take a gamble!"

Su Wang immediately selected the part of the fishing gear to be modified.

The next second, a fist-sized reel appeared above the handle of the gray-white fishing rod in his hand, and the effect of his professional skill also changed.
