As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up
Chapter 328 - Chapter 328 Chapter 277 The Sprayed Ambergris

Chapter 328: Chapter 277: The Sprayed Ambergris Chapter 328: Chapter 277: The Sprayed Ambergris Bluefin Tuna was bled and gutted, leaving a weight pretty close to what Chu Mingcheng had estimated, indeed just 583 kilograms.

The fish was then placed into the refrigeration hold, which already housed six large Golden Spearfish.

Judging by the space available, it could fit another ten fish each weighing 600 kilograms, but that was clearly not going to happen.

Normally, most of the large Golden Spearfish found weigh between 150 and 200 kilograms, particularly large ones are quite rare.

Chu Mingcheng thought it might be better to come again next year when perhaps there would be more large Golden Spearfish than this year.

After washing their hands, the two of them headed back to the kitchen to prepare today’s lunch.

After eating and resting for a bit, Jiang Luoluo went to the dance studio, while Chu Mingcheng headed to the cockpit.

This time he didn’t instruct the sea lions to continue searching for Golden Spearfish. Having caught a Bluefin today, he wouldn’t mind if the rest of their time yielded nothing.

One fish made their trip worthwhile; there was nothing to be dissatisfied about.

So, he just piloted the Sea God at a very slow pace across the ocean.

Then, Chu Mingcheng, holding a telescope, saw a black spot appear far out on the ocean’s surface.

He hadn’t originally steered towards this black spot, but the occasional birds flying from that direction caught his attention, so he adjusted course to have a look.

As the ship got closer, Chu Mingcheng was shocked to discover that the black spot was in fact the carcass of a whale, a Moxiang Whale he had seen before.

He found that he had quite a fate with Moxiang Whales, though he only ever encountered them dead.

The Moxiang Whale carcass he had previously encountered underwater was already decomposed to the skeleton, and it being in the waters of Australia, he hadn’t been able to film it well at the time.

But today was different, he could completely record the body floating on the ocean’s surface, and share it with friends and online.

So he picked up the communicator and called out, “Luoluo, come check out the whale!”

Almost simultaneously, from the dance studio downstairs, his voice echoed, and Jiang Luoluo was momentarily stunned, watch the whale?

Suddenly, she came to the cockpit with curiosity, “What whale?”

“There, that one!” Chu Mingcheng pointed to the corpse being gnawed on by several Great White Sharks.

It was quite normal for such a large piece of meat to attract sharks, their sharp teeth easily tearing off big chunks of flesh.

“(o)…” Jiang Luoluo had thought it might be a Killer Whale or something; she hadn’t expected a dead Moxiang Whale.

Even though it was dead and sharks were gnawing at its flesh, the massive body almost as long as the Sea God was indeed an imposing sight up close.

Especially when the ship reached its side, the view became even more direct.

“It’s like a real-life documentary!” Jiang Luoluo wasn’t frightened by the corpse’s appearance, rather, she was quite interested and went to grab the camcorder before running to the third floor to film.

Chu Mingcheng followed her, not finding any fish that afternoon, watching a documentary was not a bad idea.

“Hey, Ah Cheng, do you think there might be ambergris inside this Moxiang Whale’s stomach? That stuff is valuable!” Jiang Luoluo put down the camcorder after filming for a while and curiously asked.

Chu Mingcheng paused before answering leisurely, “Um… I don’t know about ambergris, but there’s definitely loads of poop. Why, you want to see that?”

“Go to hell, I don’t want to see that disgusting stuff.” Jiang Luoluo punched him playfully, but his response let her know she was being naive.

However, some things you don’t wish to see can still force themselves upon your sight.

The belly of the Moxiang Whale had already been torn open, and at that moment, a Great White Shark was biting chunks of putrid flesh inside it.

Just then, it seemed to have bitten through something, suddenly a mass of pitch-black material burst forth.

It turned it from a Great White Shark into a Great Black Shark, all the while a foul stench filled the air.

“Ugh~” Jiang Luoluo naturally witnessed this scene, almost throwing up.

Chu Mingcheng also realized what had happened and hurriedly pulled her towards the cockpit, then hastily had the Sea God leave the area.

Fortunately, their ship was a bit far from the Moxiang Whale carcass, otherwise that mess might have sprayed up on them.

“So disgusting~” Jiang Luoluo patted her chest, still shaken, causing Yuanyuan to quake unhappily.

“Don’t look, we might actually find some ambergris this time!”

Chu Mingcheng drove the ship a bit farther away and then stopped, as he had noticed some hard clumps appearing inside the whale’s stomach earlier on.

These could be precursors to ambergris, and of course, there was a minuscule chance of directly finding ambergris, albeit of poor quality.

Truly exquisite ambergris would require decades or even centuries of being weathered by the sun and sea spray to transform from foul-smelling to fragrant.

Realizing what he meant, Jiang Luoluo glanced again at the polluted sea and shivered, “Maybe… let’s forget it, we’re not in need of money, right?”

“It’s fine, let’s wait for those dirty substances to disperse before taking a look. The wax-like material in the Moxiang Whale’s stomach will float on the surface, it won’t sink.”

Although the ambergris freshly exited from the whale’s stomach was of low quality, it was still ambergris.

Chu Mingcheng was quite curious whether, if he collected the ambergris and kept it in a container filled with seawater exposed to daily sunlight, he might obtain medium-quality ambergris after some time.

Of course, that was assuming it wouldn’t smell too foul.

After a while, the sea surface returned to its normal state.

As for the Great White Sharks, they had long since vanished, perhaps chased off by the stench.
