Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

In terms of resource acquisition, the most efficient method at present is undoubtedly to obtain resources from the Seven-Colored Secret Realm.

Su Wang then instructed Cao Ge to obtain the materials from the secret realm.

Cao Ge also obtained several thousand sacred scales at this Sacred Fish Feast, which wasn't a lot and couldn't be exchanged for many resources.

He has now been promoted to the level of a sub-saint fisherman and has a full set of extraordinary fishing gear and accessories.

The vehicle is not yet perfect, but that does not mean that Cao Ge's fishing skills have not undergone a qualitative change.

If the Sacred Fish Feast were to be held again, he might become the second most outstanding figure after Su Wang.

Su Wangxuan then told Cao Ge her thoughts.

The alliance's initial members formed a group of 50 fishermen equipped with a full set of exceptional fishing gear.

Once they are familiar with the fishing gear and accessories, Su Wang will exchange for King Scales again to synthesize Fish Beads and summon the Seven-Colored Sacred Fish.

Cao Ge and the others were the main force in catching the Seven-Colored Sacred Fish, ensuring that they could catch the sacred fish, while the other fishermen scattered in various places could only get a taste of the soup.

After just a dozen or so visits, all the fishermen will be rolling in money and will never have to worry about running out of resources again.

Cao Ge will also be able to obtain a large amount of resources to improve his naval hegemony warships and bring them to a point where they can be deployed for combat as soon as possible.

Before that, Su Wang had another matter to attend to.

He first asked Cao Ge whether the quantum turbine was still usable.

The answer was that it could not be used, or that the conditions for use had not been met.

Given Qin Shi Huang's current size, he would need to equip himself with 100 quantum turbines to reactivate quantum tunneling capabilities.

As the size continues to increase, the number of turbine components required will also continue to rise.

The good news is that each turbine can provide the Qin Shihuang with a speed boost of 10 points.

Su Wang's eye twitched upon hearing this.
Unable to tunnel through, at its current speed, the Qin Shihuang ship can only remain in the dangerous area on the edge of this polluted sea, and he will have to leave a fleet behind to protect it.

Su Wang had no choice but to leave the anchor point mark on the spot.
They returned to Fool's Wharf and created 150 quantum turbines, along with 99 extraordinary repulsion cannons, and then traveled back.

With these devices installed, Cao Ge's Qin Shi Huang finally gained basic combat and operational capabilities.

This was the last piece of free equipment assistance that Su Wang provided; the rest would require Cao Ge to exchange resources or merits for it.

Once preparations were complete, Su Wang and Cao Ge together propelled the warship through the tunnel.

The goal is to find the only pristine area within the polluted sea.

Su Wang's current focus is on purifying the polluted sea area.

Cao Ge has already become a saint, so naturally he can no longer stay in the rear as an idle person. He must come to the front line to play his role.

Once the Qin Shi Huang ship is equipped with advanced combat equipment, it will become a formidable weapon stationed at the three purification docks.

With the help of the fishermen's fleet, Su Wang could be freed up to do even more.

...

When the two men steered their warship through the tunnel to the side of the Fire Spirit Fish Wharf...

The fleet of ships guarding the dock and the fishermen on the dock all noticed the huge creature that had suddenly appeared.

This caused quite a stir and raised alarms.

The commotion only subsided after Su Wang spoke up and explained the situation.

The discovery that this enormous object, thousands of meters in diameter, was the mount of Cao Ge, who had just been promoted to Saint, sparked much discussion among the fishermen.

"This is the vehicle of the Qin Sage? Can this even be called a ship?"

"Yeah, this is way too big, it's practically a small island."

"The saints are truly extraordinary. Su Shen flew directly into the sky, and Qin Sheng also uniquely drove onto the 'island'."

"The only profession left without a saint is the fisherman. I happen to be a fisherman myself, so I wonder if I have any hope of becoming a saint."

"You? Forget it, you're already doing well to have become an extraordinary being."

...

Cao Ge, who arrived in Hong Kong with Su Wang,

Along the way, I heard people talking and noticed the stares directed at me.

He couldn't suppress the smile on his face, and he was walking with his chest puffed out, almost like a general.

Seeing this, Su Wang smacked him in an annoyed tone.

"Hurry up! Who are you waiting for if you take two steps and then stop?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Ge immediately gave a fawning smile and quickened his pace.

"I'm coming!"

The purpose of coming to Fire Spirit Fish Wharf is to provide manpower for Cao Ge and, incidentally, to see if he can recruit believers.

Soon, Su Wang arranged for the family managers at the dock to bring 5000 ship captains and 3 residents who could be converted into workers.

The ever-increasing size of the ship means that Cao Ge's demand for logistics personnel will also increase accordingly.

These 8 people were the initial manpower provided by Su Wang.

These people, having been purified by the Mirror Matrix containing the power of faith fuel, have now become part of the Faith Fishing Saints.

Su Wang wondered if they could change their religious goals and switch to Cao Ge through an oath.

After all, with current methods, it is impossible to purify the docks in polluted waters without using religious fuel.

Cao Ge does not possess purification methods.

But the fuel of faith is one of the essential core elements of a saint, and it is indispensable.

Su Wangde gave Cao Ge a preliminary way to obtain faith fuel, thus laying the foundation for creating the core of the temple.

With the harpoon temple, Cao Ge will be able to develop his own faith community and create another kind of native harpoon master.

When Cao Ge followed Su Wang's instructions and had some people take an oath in turn, they actually received a notification that they had gained a faith-based family.

Although there are currently only 1 family members, the rest have simply become believers.
However, the daily production of tens of millions of Faith Fuel is enough for Cao Ge to convert the Temple Core.

All that remains is to build a temple at each dock, and naturally, more and more believers will be attracted.

As for the issue of separating believers, Su Wang didn't mind.

After all, each polluted dock cleaned up adds hundreds of thousands of believers, and even if a portion of them are removed, it won't have much of an impact.

The remaining question concerns the path to sainthood.

Cao Ge lacks the ability to purify the group, so he cannot embark on the path of redemption.

Su Wang decided to let Cao Ge try to inspire the path of killing.

Just as they were resisting the pollution riots, fleets of pollutants would attack them from time to time.
Su Wang didn't have the energy to purify them batch by batch, so he could only send a fleet to sink them.

It was precisely the helpless carnage caused by sinking these strange ships that allowed Cao Ge to embark on his path to sainthood.

At this point, Su Wang had imparted his experience in the Saint stage to Cao Ge without reservation.

The reason for this is that as the vehicle becomes more and more spiritualized, Su Wang has a kind of intuition.

That is, the three professional saints may be indispensable.

Although this intuition came out of nowhere, Su Wang decided to trust his intuition.

...

After resolving Cao Ge's problem, Su Wang then began to deal with another matter.

That concerns the source crystal and source water.

The purpose of going to the Seven-Colored Secret Realm was to increase the number of Seven-Colored Ascension Monuments, in preparation for the future upgrade of a large number of Pure Spring buildings.

However, the acquisition of the monument brought about some changes to this plan.

The Holy Monument's ability to limitlessly enhance special buildings at the dock is far more efficient than the Seven-Colored Ascension Monument.

The mission has only been released recently, so there are no purification springs available for enlightenment yet. However, the Holy Monument is not only used to enlighten purification springs.

There are also many special buildings at the Fire Spirit Fish Wharf.

However, most of them are basic resource and functional buildings.

The super-grade resource buildings have already been upgraded at Fool's Wharf, and their daily resource output is not insignificant.

With Su Wang using the sacred stele to enlighten him...
Many resource buildings at the Fire Spirit Fish Wharf have been upgraded to the extraordinary level, greatly increasing the daily output of resources to millions.

And this is just one dock. What if there were ten, a hundred, or a thousand? The cumulative effect of a small number of docks would be significant.

Afterwards, Su Wang also went to the other two purification docks in turn.
The resource buildings on the dock were also enhanced, including a [Fish Farming Lake].

Finally, they returned to Fool's Wharf to test the sanctification effect, which could only be used once every seven days.

Choosing a building target is naturally the most urgently needed source of purification.

Upon arriving at the purification spring at Fool's Wharf, Su Wang raised the sacred tablet and activated his sanctification ability.

The next second, the extraordinary purification source suddenly lit up with a blinding white light, and the fountain area rapidly expanded.

Until the white light dissipated, it had transformed into a fountain a hundred meters in size.

The difference is that this fountain has a difference between the inside and outside.

The central area is a huge spring, from which spring water gushed forth with a seven-colored sheen.

The outer ring is dotted with a hundred smaller springs, which spout the same water as always.

At the same time, the building information for purifying the source of the water has also undergone tremendous changes.

[Dock architecture: Holy Spring.]

Building level: Saint-level.

Floor area: 100m*100m.

Building benefits:

Medium-quality purification wharf – unlimited production.

High-quality purified water – 1000 liters/day (100% bonus for workers).

Purification Source Crystal - 100 crystals/day (100% bonus for workers).

Pure Holy Water - 10 liters/day (100% bonus for workers).

Pure Holy Crystals - 10 per day (fixed output).

Description: A special holy-level building that has been consecrated by a sacred relic and possesses divine and mysterious effects.

...

"Hiss..." Su Wang's eyes widened slightly, and he took a deep breath.

Not only have the building names changed, but the resources produced have also changed drastically.

The lowest grade of output is medium-quality purified source water, which can be extracted without limit.

The high-quality purified water, which is extremely useful to Su Wang, has reached a daily output of 2 liters with the help of the workers.

Including the purification source crystals, there are 2 per day.

Just looking at these features, one sacred spring is comparable to nearly ten extraordinary purifying springs.

In addition, two more resources that I had never heard of before appeared, and the resource names contained the word "sacred".

Anything that can be associated with the word "saint" is anything but simple.

Su Wang quickly extracted both types of supplies and examined them.

The first thing extracted was holy water that shimmered with seven colors.

【Pure Holy Water】

Level: Saint-level.

Effect: Spring water with ultimate purification power. Consuming 1 liter can raise the purity of one's bloodline to the extreme and awaken the talent of a gold-level talent.

Tip: The spring water, imbued with holy power, can upgrade any crew member's aptitude to Gold level.

The target was already a Gold-level crew member before taking the medication, and can further upgrade their qualification level.

...

Su Wang's mouth was slightly open, and he was a little stunned for a moment.

The effects of the pure holy water truly astonished him.

It can directly increase bloodline purity to the extreme and also unlock the Gold Worker qualification.

In the additional prompt information,

It also shows that this holy water actually works on the crew members who are only fishermen, directly upgrading their qualifications to the gold level!
It's already at the gold level, and it can be further upgraded.

The four crew members signed by the Heart of the Dead were all Gold-level.

What does this mean?
This means that Mirei, Tia, and others will once again undergo a qualitative change in their abilities!
Su Wang suppressed his excitement and turned to check out another resource—Pure Holy Crystals.

Upon seeing the product information, my shock reached an even higher level.

【Pure Holy Crystal】

Level: Saint-level.

Effect: Those with pure bloodlines can awaken their fisherman potential and their soul vessel after consuming this product.

Introduction: The key to unlocking life's advancement.

...

The information provided was far more concise than the purification of holy water, but the impact it had was far greater.

The only purpose of the Holy Crystal is to awaken a fisherman's potential.

The shipwrights among the native people are incomparable to the fishermen.

Although the ship's captain can also steer the warship and utilize the fish souls, fish treasures, and equipment capabilities equipped on the warship.

However, the ship captain will not gain the special abilities brought by the fish treasure. The attributes of a warship are generally far inferior to those of a fisherman's vehicle of the same level.

However, the appearance of the Purification Crystal can awaken the fisherman's aptitude in the native humans, allowing them to become fishermen.

Su Wang could no longer contain his excitement and immediately prepared to test it.

Considering that the prerequisite for taking Holy Crystal is having a pure bloodline.

Su Wang immediately went to the port and ordered someone to find a young man with average bloodline purity.

The boy's name was Hewitt, and he was one of the ordinary residents of the docks.

Su Wang immediately asked him if he would like to become a shipmaster.

The young man nodded repeatedly, his expression filled with excitement.

"Yes! My lord, I'm willing!"

He thought he would be given a shipwright's potion by the lord, awakening his shipwright aptitude.

After all, in the early days at the docks, the lord would occasionally bestow gifts upon some people, awakening them and turning them into enviable shipwrights.

However, the next second, a fish skin water bag was thrown into his hand.

"Drink it all."

Upon hearing what the lord said, a look of doubt flashed across Hewitt's face.

Isn't the ship's medicine in a bottle?
Why is it a fish skin water bag?
Despite his doubts, Hewitt had no distrust of this respectable and benevolent lord.

He believed that the lord, whose reputation for benevolence was known throughout the docks, would not deliberately come to harm an ordinary man like him.

Hewitt opened the fish skin bag, picked it up, and started chugging water into his mouth.

A liter of water isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either.

For most people, drinking it all at once would inevitably cause some discomfort.

However, the moment Hewitt took his first sip,

I felt an extreme sense of comfort all over my body, as if my body was constantly craving to swallow more.

The 1 liter of water inside the fish skin bag was swallowed in less than ten seconds.

Just as Hewitt was satisfied, even smacking his lips and reluctantly putting down the empty fish skin bag, an unexpected change occurred.

A seven-colored halo suddenly appeared on his body, and a warm feeling swept over his entire body.

The transformation has begun...
