It's perfectly reasonable for me, a fisherman, to catch a Georgios, right?

"Sea fishing is so fast!!"

Qin Ming was fishing while making calculations in his mind.

"Teng Teng~!!!"

"Teng Teng~!!!"

Finding it amusing, the snail, no longer content with just watching as Qin Ming kept catching fish, wobbled over, wanting to try it out itself.

Qin Ming had no choice but to grant this newborn darling's wish.

"To get fish to bite, you have to put bait on the hook so that when you cast it out, fish will eat it."

"Once the bait is on, cast the fishing rod out with force."

Qin Ming guided the Snivy step by step, slowly teaching it how to fish. Of course, Qin Ming did most of the work, since the Snivy, which had only been born a short time ago, was lighter than a fishing rod.

"Once the bait is in the water, we just wait for the fish to bite."

"Look, the bobber moving up and down means a fish has taken the bait. That's when we cast the line."

Qin Ming gave a complete demonstration of the fishing process, while Tengteng Snake clapped happily beside him.

"Teng Teng~!!!"

"Teng Teng~!!!"

……

……

Qin Ming is a very devoted man; for more than ten days in a row, he stayed at the same fishing platform to fish.

He fishes for eight hours every day, rain or shine.

With the conclusion of the Shenzhen University campus selection competition, Qin Ming has been in the secret realm for over a month now, and the date has arrived at January 25th.

This year's New Year came a little earlier than usual.

January 25th is Lunar New Year's Eve.

While most people were enjoying family time, eating dumplings, and watching the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve, Qin Ming was accumulating fishing progress in the secret realm.

Qin Ming, who was alone, did not feel lonely. Having three elves by his side made it feel warm and cozy.

At this moment, Qin Ming was standing at his usual fishing spot, but instead of continuing to make progress in his fishing, he held up his phone and made a video call to his parents.

Perhaps it's because it's Lunar New Year's Eve, but the signals that are usually unpredictable are unusually good today.

"Mom and Dad, I can't spend Chinese New Year with you this year."

"It's okay, we're traveling too."

"Tomorrow your mom and I are flying to the Flaming Mountains in Xinjiang to see the Flaming Birds!!"

"Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore. Let's talk later, son."

"Goodbye, son!!"

"Goodbye, Mom and Dad!!"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Ming's phone also received congratulatory messages from classmates and friends.

[Go, Scyther! (Chen Junliang): I'm afraid the New Year's bells will be too loud and you won't hear my blessings; I'm afraid the firecrackers on New Year's Eve will be too noisy and you won't receive my greetings. Chen Junliang and Scyther wish you a Happy New Year in advance...]

[Garlic Turtle, Grow Up Quickly (Li Shiwei): I'm afraid the New Year's bells will be too loud, and you won't hear my blessings...]

……

Qin Ming was too lazy to reply to the mass-sent messages; he glanced at them and quickly swiped past them.

The only thing worth reading was the message from Song Yun.

[Plum Sauce (Song Yun): Staring blankly.gif]

[Plum Sauce (Song Yun): I know you might not see my message since you don't have a signal in the secret realm, but I'd still like to remind you to be careful. Praying.gif]

[Plum Sauce (Song Yun): Qin Ming, I'm different now. Remember to look for me when you come back. I have something to tell you. Go Pikachu! (gif)]

[Plum Sauce (Song Yun): Remember to come find me when you get back. Eevee is looking forward to it. gif]

Upon seeing the message from Song Yun, Qin Ming subconsciously frowned. He was the type to speak his mind, but it was normal for a young girl to be a little coy.

He casually replied "okay" and then closed his phone.

Put down your phone and immerse yourself in the systemic communication within your mind.

"System, what is my current fishing progress?"

[Note: The host's current fishing progress is 5920/6000 (reaching 6000 fishing progress will unlock the next stage of rewards).]

"Only 80 more are needed."

Qin Ming shook his slightly sore arms and glanced at the sky, noting that it was getting late: "Let's wrap up a little early today. After all, it's Lunar New Year's Eve, so let's make some more delicious food."

"That's a wrap!!"

Qin Ming called out, and Lucario carried the bait and other fishing gear on its back. Milotic used its tail to curl up the sleeping Snivy, and they followed Qin Ming back to the temporary camp.

Since landing, Qin Ming has spent almost every night on land.

The ocean-going vessel remained anchored in the shallow waters, and people would occasionally go to the ocean-going vessel to collect supplies.

"Alright, everyone, let's eat!!"

On New Year's Eve, of course, you have to eat something nice. The relatively simple shelter was filled with all kinds of delicious food, including steaks with delicious juices, tender and juicy vegetable salads, cheese-baked sweet potatoes that could be stretched, energy cubes of various flavors, and so on.

After a hearty meal, Qin Ming and the elves lay comfortably in their shelter, gazing at the bright moon and the dazzling stars high in the sky.

The sea is completely open, offering a clear view of the beautiful night sky.

"Luca~!!!"

Lucario gazes at the stars, a toothpick dangling from his mouth.

"Mina~!!!"

After indulging in a feast, Milos curled up in a circle and began to snore softly.

"Teng Teng~!!!"

The vine snake obediently circled around Qin Ming, using its little hands to massage his arms to relax the muscles that were a little tense from fishing.

To be fair, the snare technique is quite good.

Looking at the stars in the sky, Qin Ming thought with anticipation, "Tomorrow I'll have accumulated enough fishing progress to see what abilities I'll gain."

"Once you've accumulated enough fishing progress, you can begin exploring part of the secret realm."

"By the way, I haven't been to that temple that Gouzi mentioned yet. I'll go check it out after I've accumulated enough fishing progress."

……

The next morning, Qin Ming got up very early.

After a quick wash and breakfast, we promptly led the elves to the fishing platform where they usually fished.

Prepare the bait, adjust the bait, bait the hook, cast the line, and then forcefully fly the fish away. Let Lucario or Milotic handle it, then bait the hook again, cast the line, and repeat the forceful fly maneuver.

With Qin Ming's skillful movements, he quickly caught fish, and his fishing progress continued to improve.

Finally, after repeating the process 80 times, Qin Ming accumulated enough fishing progress, and the system notification sounded in his ears.

[Note: The host's current fishing progress is 6000/6000.]

[Note: Rewards are being distributed.]

[Notification: Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Power of Eternal Moon.]

[Note: The host's current fishing progress is 6000/16000 (reaching 16000 fishing progress will unlock the next stage of rewards).]

……

……

Chapter 102, Fierce Sky Soars: Phoenix King, don't touch my people!

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Power of Eternal.]

[Tip: The Power of Everlasting can connect with spirits, increasing affinity with them (Note: This ability increases with the total effect of the Power of Everlasting.)]

[Tip: The Power of Everlasting Rock can heal Pokémon injuries (Note: This ability increases with the total effect of the Power of Everlasting Rock.)]

[Note: The Power of Eternal Realm can reduce the suppression of dimensional rules on spirits (Note: This ability increases with the total effect of the Power of Eternal Realm.)]

[Note: The effects of Eternal Power will vary depending on the total amount used.]

……

The moment the system notification sounded, Qin Ming felt a strange energy surge into his body. The power of the Everlasting Wave and the original wave power within him intertwined, the two forces coexisting peacefully within his body.

As Qin Ming obtained the power of the Everlasting Rock, his appearance remained unchanged and he was still as handsome as ever, but his temperament underwent a huge change.

This change is particularly significant for elves.

"Luca~!!!"
