Chapter 201 Tsunami

You were born into an ordinary fishing family, named Han Tao, whose family had made a living by fishing at sea for generations.

Although not wealthy, the family and friends live in harmony. With mutual support, they manage to live a decent life.

You grew up by the sea, and by the age of three, you were able to use your ability to judge the ebb and flow of the tides to bring your family a large catch of fish.

[When you were five years old, you boarded a ship for the first time, and despite the raging waves, you remained steadfast.]

[He was already adept at swimming at the age of seven, moving freely in the sea like a fish.]

When you were nine years old, your father was injured at sea and could no longer perform strenuous physical labor.

The once harmonious family seemed to have changed from this moment on.

Previously, everyone depended on your father for a living, since he was the most experienced and knew exactly where the fish were in the sea.

[His skills, before they could be passed on, were tragically cut short.]

Suddenly, life at home became somewhat difficult.

You immediately took over your father's responsibilities, starting to work on other people's fishing boats, trying to find ways to supplement the family income.

[Initially, your parents didn't agree to you going on the ship. After all, you were too young, and going on the ship was for making a living, not for fun; they might not be able to endure that kind of hardship.]

After arguing your case logically, you finally convinced your parents through your own abilities.

After you boarded the ship, you didn't rush to demonstrate your abilities.

[Doing what an ordinary sailor should do, quietly waiting for the opportunity.]

You spent some time building relationships with the others on the ship, and then subtly showed off your skills, giving them a taste of success.

They all feel that you seem to have inherited your father's true skills.

In the same year, on your advice, the captain of the ship you were on reversed the predicament of having caught nothing for half a month at sea, and made a fortune with just one net.

The news spread quickly, and everyone thought you'd just gotten lucky. But in this small fishing village, it remained a topic of conversation.

However, after your second boarding, you still helped the captain make a fortune once again.

[Suddenly, every family in the fishing village that owned a fishing boat flocked there.]

Your doorstep is practically worn down by everyone walking around.

You politely declined offers from other fishermen who came to your door. For you, the boat you're currently on is enough to support your entire family.

The following year, when you were ten years old, you had great success almost every month of the year.

The captain who brought you aboard has gone from one boat to three.

[Various kinds of rare fish are practically within your grasp. All the fishermen who board your boat have made a considerable amount of money following you.]

You hold the highest position in the entire team; even the captain who recruited you doesn't carry as much weight as you.

After all, you're the one who can lead everyone to make money.

However, you always maintained a humble attitude. When you went out to sea, you only acted decisively when fishing. The rest of the time, you were more like an ordinary child.

Despite the large fleet, no one harbored ill intentions towards you.

For two consecutive years, whenever you went out to sea on a ship, you never returned empty-handed.

Everyone in the fishing village followed the fleet and made a fortune.

[It's another seemingly ordinary voyage. You've been observing the stars for several days and know that the seas are calm for the foreseeable future, perfect for fishing.]

But for no apparent reason, you felt a resistance to going to sea.

You've considered many factors, but you still can't quite describe how you feel.

All the fishing boats are ready to go, and all the fishermen are watching you.

[With just your command, they will follow you into the deep sea.]

Just as it had been for the previous two years.

But you kept hesitating...

You gaze at the calm sea, and you choose:

[1. Trust your experience and continue leading the team out to sea. (Unforeseen events may occur with this option.)]

[2. Trust your instincts and make an excuse not to go to sea again. (This option may displease others.)]

3. Look for more clues to verify your hypothesis. (This option may yield no results.)

[4. Personal intervention, remaining attempts: three.]

Su Chen frowned as he looked at the options.

For the first ten years, Su Chen spent almost all his time accelerating.

Although his talent was the key to understanding all things, it didn't seem to be of much use. Apart from learning about fishing and the sea, Su Chen hadn't even seen a decent book or scroll.

The fish caught from this small fishing village will be quickly sold to various places via nearby towns.

Su Chen did make an excuse to go a few times, but the gains from each trip were not significant.

Besides fishing, all that's left is fishing.

"I haven't seen any trace of the past five thousand years. This era is most likely not the future, but a past even more distant than five thousand years ago."

In two years, he accumulated a considerable amount of wealth.

Although he is only eleven years old in the game, no one in the entire fishing village dares to disobey him.

To others, he was a living god of wealth.

"I need to create an opportunity to leave here. Staying in the fishing village won't trigger the plot I need."

With his cultivation speed increased tenfold, Su Chen didn't want to save all that skill for learning fishing. Only by finding a way to leave this fishing village and experience more things could he trigger other storylines.

Choose 2!

You made up a random excuse to avoid going to sea with the fleet.

Even based on your experience, and that of others, this voyage should proceed without any problems, yet a lingering worry remains in your heart.

Since you cannot pinpoint the exact source of this concern, your only option is to avoid going to sea.

What you didn't expect was that the other fishermen immediately became unhappy the moment you chose not to go to sea.

For two whole years, they got used to going out with you.

They rely on your judgment of the ocean more than ever before.

[As long as they go to sea with you, they only need to follow your orders and they will definitely make money without having to worry about anything else.]

What you didn't expect was that even after you refused to go to sea again, the villagers continued to try to persuade you.

Finally, after much persuasion, you were forcibly taken onto the boat by these fishermen.

[You had no choice but to eventually go out to sea with those fishermen.]

You also hope that your intuition is just an illusion.

After all, no matter how you look at it, this sea area is calm and posed no threat.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Despite the excellent weather, the unpredictable waves rendered your ships almost immobile.

A colossal wave capsized the entire fleet.

Even if you are extremely familiar with the ocean, you still cannot escape the towering waves hundreds of feet high.

[You are dead. 】

"What's going on? I can't see anything, it just suddenly disappeared?"

Su Chen kept replaying the last scene. There were no living creatures in the picture. The entire fleet was swallowed by the ocean in an instant, and no one survived.

"Five thousand years ago, it should have been the same era of cultivating immortality. Could it be that we encountered immortals or sea monsters?"

In this unnatural situation, the only explanation is that they were just having bad luck.

Choose 3!

You feel very uneasy, but you can't find any reason to refuse to go to sea.

You can only tell the truth about what's in your heart.

These fishermen, though they didn't understand why you suddenly had this idea, still gave you enough time.

For two whole days, you constantly observed the celestial phenomena. But no matter how you interpreted them, the final result was always the same.

This trip was completely safe.

As the villagers eagerly tried to get you onto the boat, you suddenly noticed that the tides seemed to be behaving strangely.

That represents one thing: a tsunami.

Upon discovering this, the others immediately lost all interest in going to sea and began hastily fleeing with their families.

[A colossal wave, unlike anything you've ever seen, easily tore apart the place you've lived in for over a decade.]

The entire village suffered heavy losses. The only saving grace was that you evacuated in time, and no one's life was in danger.

As the tide receded, the fishing village was almost completely razed to the ground, and your savings of the past two years vanished in an instant.

They fled for their lives in a hurry, and the others were in roughly the same situation.

[In short, it's cluttered with all sorts of random things.]

There is absolutely no trace of the fishing village ever existing.

Rebuilding the fishing village here will likely require a considerable amount of time and effort.

For a moment, many fishermen were at a loss.

They made their living by fishing, but now all their boats are destroyed, and the coastline is a mess.
