God of Fishing

Chapter 296 Before Departure

Everybody had been excited and ready to go, but they did not know that the level-three fishery was so different from the level-two fishery!

The enormous boats thousands of meters long alone were fascinating enough.

Wenren Yu smiled. “Secondly, apart from the dragon boats, there is another kind of boat in the level-three fishery, named ghost boat.”

“Ghost boat?”

Zhang Xuanyu exclaimed, as the name did not sound pleasant at all!

Wenren Yu nodded and said, “The ghost boats are boats that are devoted to pirating. Remember, anybody who meets outside of the dragon boat is stronger than great fishing masters, and the commanders of ghost boats are mostly Dangling Fishers, who hide their boats in the Sea Swallowing Seashell and attack when there is a chance. They’re ruthless and greedy! If you run into them and can’t defeat them, it’s the smart choice to abandon your boat.”

Luo Xiaobai asked, “Do those people usually hide in the water?”

Wenren Yu shook her head. “That’s not certain. They might be in the sky too.”

Xiao Zhan added, “Right, I need to remind you that those on the ghost boats are mostly mercenaries for hire on the dragon boat. So, do not trust or hire a stranger on the dragon boat unless it’s necessary.” Everybody nodded. Based on what Xiao Zhan and Wenren Yu said, the dragon boats must be a complicated matter that required extra attention.

Xia Xiaochan asked, “What if we’re in conflicts with someone on the dragon boat?”

Xiao Zhan replied quickly, “Don’t do anything until you leave the boat. Every dragon boat is supervised with experts at the level of Hanging Fishers.”

Luo Xiaobai asked, “Hanging Fishers? What if the Hanging Fisher is the one looking for trouble?”

Xiao Zhan said with a smile, “There are too many people on the dragon boat, and any Hanging Fisher would be found out if they ever set the adventurers up. They would be in a lot of trouble, so they usually won’t do anything.”

Han Fei frowned. “But what if the Hanging Fishers look for trouble after we leave the dragon boat?”

Xiao Zhan was lost for words. “You think the Hanging Fishers have nothing better to do? That’s not a possibility. The Hanging Fishers who supervise the dragon boat cannot leave the boat easily, or a barrier will be triggered and they will be killed.”

Han Fei was greatly relieved. He couldn’t be more careful. After all, a Hanging Fisher was the strongest among a bunch of great fishing masters and Dangling Fishers, and they could kill anyone they wanted.

At this point, Old Bai walked to them slowly and continued, “Don’t worry about that. You’ll know more about the dragon boats and the ghost boats after you reach the level-three fishery. However, the greatest danger in the level-three fishery is the level-three fishery itself.”

Wenren Yu nodded and said, “It’s much more likely for a regular adventurer to be killed at the bottom of the ocean than in a battle. Different from the level-two fishery, the level-three fishery has too many dangerous areas.” Zhang Xuanyu licked his lips and said, “But no matter how many people die, more people will continue the hunt for treasures.”

Old Bai smiled and said, “Of course. How can a cultivator achieve anything if we don’t explore the treasure troves? That being said, you’d better not visit the special places that are too risky.”

Le Renkuang mumbled, “But we don’t know what places are too risky!”

Old Bai yelled at him, “You’ll know the perilous places after you go there.”

Then, Old Bai drove everybody away. “GO now, little magnates. You’ve made a lot of money last year, haven’t you? Go buy a decent boat, one that will not sink easily...”

Luo Xiaobai said, “Mr. President, we can’t do anything if we have a boat but no Sea Swallowing Seashells!”

As if he had expected someone to say that, Old Bai searched his pocket and took out three Sea Swallowing Seashells.

Zhang Xuanyu’s eyes immediately glittered. “Wow! Mr. President, you are too generous. Thank you very much. Haha...”

Le Renkuang rubbed his hands. “Mr. President, you are the best!”

Xia Xiaochan was confused. “Why are there only three? Four of us don’t have a Sea Swallowing Seashell!”

Old Bai glanced at Han Fei. “Didn’t you kill someone from the Sun family? Where is his Sea Swallowing Seashell?”.

Han Fei blinked his eyes, feeling thousands of Iron-Head Fish raging in his heart. You’re taking my trophy away so easily? I feel that I’m disrespected!

Xia Xiaochan, however, extended her hand and said, “I want Han Fei’s.”

Han Fei didn’t know what to say. “Okay. You’re truly good at exploiting me, sir.”

That being said, Han Fei gave Xia Xiaochan the Sea Swallowing Seashell, not considering it a big deal.

old Bai sneered. “I exploit you? Do you not remember what you did?”

Han Fei was rather panicked. Did the old man know that he stole the map? Would the old man ask it back?

Ignoring him, Old Bai simply went on. “You have the Sea Swallowing Seashells now, and you can buy your own boat. What else do you need? Spiritual weapons?”

Rubbing his hands, Le Renkuang asked in wild joy, “Mr. President, you’re going to distribute spiritual weapons too?” Han Fei was also stunned at the president’s generosity. Although he was not short of spiritual weapons, he certainly wouldn’t refuse more of them, especially when it was free.

Xia Xiaochan’s eyes glittered. “I would like a new dagger.” “Tsk!”

Old Bai looked at her in disdain, “Of course you want that. Whoever doesn’t have a spiritual weapon, raise your hand.”

Immediately, all the five of them raised their hands.

Then, the rest of them looked at Han Fei, obviously asking him why he raised his hand.

Holding his head high, Han Fei said, “I’m in need of spiritual weapons too.”

BAM!

Han Fei was kicked away by a shoe, and old Bai yelled, “You get the hell out of here.”

Then, Old Bai frowned and asked, “You didn’t acquire any spiritual weapons in the Fiery Mountain? Don’t keep it to yourself. It’s just a weapon.”

Zhang Xuanyu shook his head. “I didn’t get anything except a magic rod in the Star Spark Pavilion.”

BAM!

Zhang Xuanyu too was kicked away. He sat down right next to Han Fei, dumbfounded.

Han Fei looked at him in despite. “Mr. President is right! You shouldn’t have kept that rod to yourself!”

Zhang Xuanyu trembled in fury. He was better than this shameless guy who pretended that he had no spiritual weapons anyway.

Old Bai asked, “Le Renkuang, you didn’t find any spiritual weapons?”

Le Renkuang’s eyes cramped. “I... I still need a sword.”

“Get lost!”

“Okay!”

Everyone: “...”

Le Renkuang quickly ran to Han Fei and Zhang Xuanyu and sat down next to them.

Han Fei: “???”

Zhang Xuanyu: “???” Luo Xiaobai said, “I picked speed.”

Xia Xiaochan said, “I picked a boost that can improve my speed.”

Behind her, Han Fei, Zhang Xuanyu and Le Renkuang looked at each other in a daze.

Han Fei asked, “You can pick a boost?”

Zhang Xuanyu was dumbfounded. “There are seeds in the Star Spark Pavilion? Did she pick the seeds for farming?”

Le Renkuang said, “How would I know? There were so many stars. I only picked a saber.” Old Bai and Xiao Zhan both looked at Wenren Yu, and Wenren Yu snorted. “You two come to me tonight.”

Then, Wenren Yu threw a book at them and said, “It contains the commonly-seen fish in the level-three fishery. Take a look for yourself.”

The next day, those five people were about to set off, and Xiao Zhan and Wenren Yu saw them off with Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan.

Xiao Zhan said, “On the same day one year later, I will welcome you at the gate of the school.”

Wenren Yu threw a jade slip at each of them and said, “This is a technique of self-explosion. The spiritual weapons in the level-three fishery are not valuable. When your life is at risk, you can detonate those spiritual weapons, and it may save your life.”

Everybody was surprised. Self-explosion? They didn’t know that it was possible. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

Wenren Yu said, “Let’s hope that you will never have to use it. Be careful!”

Luo Xiaobai said solemnly, “Sir and madam, we’re leaving.”

Han Fei said, “Goodbye! I’ll bring local specialties to you when I return.”

After they left, Xiao Zhan said to Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan casually, “You will embark on this journey too, but you have to travel to the level-two fishery first. You will have half a year to prepare yourselves.”

Xiao Zhan went back.

Scratching his head, Qu Jinnan said innocently, “Ling Yuan, I’m slightly anxious.”

Ling Yuan patted Qu Jinnan’s shoulder heavily. “Don’t be. I’ve got you covered.”

On the way, after they just passed the iron bridge, Han Fei suddenly burst into laughter. “Come here! I’ve got some gifts for you!”

A moment later, Zhang Xuanyu exclaimed and roared at Han Fei, “I paid two thousand mid-quality pearls for a map! And it’s useless now! Han Fei, you’re truly shameless to not tell me until this moment and even flaunt your map at me.”
