As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up
Chapter 357 - Chapter 357 Chapter 284 Legs 4 Meters Long

Chapter 357: Chapter 284: Legs 4 Meters Long Chapter 357: Chapter 284: Legs 4 Meters Long He did encounter two that were moving, but they were far too small to pique his interest.

However, this also confirmed that Gan’s Giant Claw Crab had indeed been active in these waters.

After making a round without discovering a significant number of crabs, Chu Mingcheng began to wonder if his catch from yesterday was simply luck, or perhaps he had encountered a small migrating group of Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs?

But as for the specifics, he definitely couldn’t find the reason now.

With no catch, Chu Mingcheng could only start heading back along the same route, preparing to venture into deeper waters.

When he passed the spot where the lobster traps were located, he intentionally shone his flashlight there to check, and the sight of a cluster of sea lobsters gathered outside the traps suggested a promising haul for tomorrow.

Even if he didn’t encounter Gan’s Giant Claw Crab tonight, the presence of these sea lobsters meant the trip hadn’t been in vain.

The fresh-chilled sea lobsters from the East Sea could sell for 150 yuan per catty, and as for the live ones, they were unlikely to survive the trip to shore.

If they could be transported ashore, the price was estimated to go over 300 yuan per catty.

Continuing forward, he soon reached the spot where he had placed the crab traps.

Unfortunately, there were no signs of life near the traps, not even some of the strange deep-sea fish– it was desolate.

But soon, Chu Mingcheng stumbled upon some good news.

Near some underwater grass, he spotted a dead Gan’s Giant Claw Crab.

This one was larger than those he had seen before, probably about the same size as the one he had caught that morning.

There was definitely evidence of Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs passing through this area.

Aside from the original path, he couldn’t be sure which of the three directions contained crabs.

After some thought, Chu Mingcheng decided to first check out the deeper areas towards the southeast.

Unsure how long he would stay underwater, he surfaced for a breath before diving again.

Once he had his bearings, he began swimming southeast.

After a little while, a huge octopus appeared in Chu Mingcheng’s line of sight.

This octopus was nearly the size of a barrel of oil, which scared him so much that he didn’t dare to get close.

He was not afraid of fish, indeed, but the vitality of this creature, especially its suckers latching onto the body, was no joke.

If it ensnared him, Chu Mingcheng wasn’t sure he could survive.

Fortunately, the octopus was startled and began to crawl away slowly into the distance, at an extremely leisurely pace.

With that speed, it was no wonder that it became prey for the Moxiang Whale and some large deep-sea sharks.

Of course, for smaller sharks, they were its prey.

Without disturbing this spine-tingling creature, Chu Mingcheng continued his journey towards the deep sea.

Wary of not being able to withstand the water pressure, he did not swim quickly.

After a bit, he encountered a swarm of pink jellyfish–deep sea really is full of hazards!

Thankfully, Heaven rewards the diligent, and at 736 meters deep, Chu Mingcheng finally discovered a large group of Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs.

Although the density was average, the size of the crabs was quite decent.

Even the average size within the crab group was as big as the thirteen-catty one he had caught earlier, and the larger ones were even more impressive.

Even if they weren’t four meters with their legs extended, they reached three meters, which was very large indeed.

Having found Gan’s Giant Claw Crab, it was now time for transportation.

He couldn’t bring the crab traps over, mainly because the ropes weren’t long enough, and given the size of these crabs, not many would fit anyway–it was better to simply catch them and bring them over directly.

The movement speed of these Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs was incredibly slow, so Chu Mingcheng turned on his headlamp and put the flashlight into a small net pocket.

Then, he went over and grabbed a particularly large crab leg, lifting it from beside him.

These legs weren’t heavy for him, so it wasn’t feasible to catch one and make a trip back just for it.

He picked another enormous Gan’s Giant Claw Crab and grabbed its leg as well.

By bringing the legs together in one hand, he could carry six crabs at once.

As he swam, the Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs didn’t even have a chance to struggle, being pulled along helplessly like small children.

But what Chu Mingcheng didn’t realize was that the numbers on his diving watch hadn’t changed due to his movement.

Clearly, the watch had broken due to the pressure; it still showed 736 meters, whereas the actual gathering place of the Gan’s Giant Claw Crabs had reached over 800 meters deep.

At such depths, the marine life guide was finally looking like a cheat sheet.
