As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up

Chapter 450: Chapter 311 My Tender Ancestor_2 Chapter 450: Chapter 311 My Tender Ancestor_2 Thus, after cleaning with a large brush, Chu Mingcheng took a toothbrush and scrubbed those corners while rinsing with water.

This meticulous task took quite a bit of time, and it was not until dark that he had cleaned the White Jade Shell.

The Conch Shell was wet; Chu Mingcheng simply moved it next to the box of ambergris to dry before storing it in the cabin.

After the busy work, he returned to the kitchen to make dinner.

With his stomach full, Chu Mingcheng did not rest that evening.

After a bit of digestion, he took his spear gun, planning to dive for some Groupers.

However, as he was about to enter the water, a thought suddenly struck him, and he remembered the Rat Spot.

The Rat Spot was currently bound as an external device, capable of searching and unveiling the map.

The ecology of this coral reef was excellent, and it was possible that he might indeed find some.

So he opened the map to check if there were any Rat Spots nearby.

As expected, several markers appeared.

Indeed, there were Rat Spots living in the coral reef close to him, not just one but as many as seven.

The map showed only Rat Spots over two pounds; any below that weight would not be displayed.

Considering the seven Rat Spots, Chu Mingcheng thought he might need to switch his fishing method for the night.

Putting on cut-resistant gloves, he then took out a fishing line capable of handling up to thirty pounds, as well as several fishing hooks of different sizes and bait for fishing.

After he was ready, Chu Mingcheng still took his spear gun and entered the water.

Those he could catch with the rod he would, and those he could not, he would resolve with a single shot.

Back in the water, he turned on his headlamp, and the scene before him instantly came into view; Chu Mingcheng baited his hook, then headed towards the coral reef.

Zooming in on the Rat Spot map, he swam to the closest one.

Within two minutes, he found a Rat Spot slowly swimming along the coral reef and occasionally lowering its head to search for food.

The fish was not large, appearing to be only about two or three pounds.

Considering that the Rat Spot was in a phase of rapid reproduction and growth due to being bound, he did not intend to let this one slip away, despite its small size.

Positioning himself above the Rat Spot, Chu Mingcheng gently lowered the hooked bait.

Soon, the bait was near the Rat Spot.

The small chunks of fish meat released a faint scent of blood, and before long it attracted the attention of the Rat Spot.

The Rat Spot had no guard up, or perhaps Groupers were inherently aggressive and took deep bites.

It approached the fish meat, its little mouth, which was slightly curved upwards, suddenly opened wide, and in an instant, it engulfed the fish meat in one gulp.

The next moment, the sharp hook sank deep into its mouth.

Chu Mingcheng felt the force tugging at his hand and did not hesitate; he grabbed the fishing line and yanked hard.

Then, with a flick of the wrist, he reeled in the fish line, and the fish drew closer to him.

In just a short while, a beautiful Rat Spot appeared before him.

Chu Mingcheng grabbed the Rat Spot, removed the hook, and secured it with a live fish clip.

The live fish clip could hold dead fish but could also lock live fish to keep them lively.

Catching a Rat Spot so effortlessly, he couldn’t help but marvel at the map’s search function despite already knowing how powerful it was.

If he wished, he could switch the bound species at any time, making fishing for valuable fish much too easy in the future.

However, that would also mean no surprises or fun; Chu Mingcheng was already making money rapidly, so he wasn’t inclined to do so.

He was merely leveraging the search functionality because the Rat Spot was already bound.

Next, he checked the location of the second Rat Spot, just about to swim there, when a parrotfish with a blunt head appeared in his line of sight, also known as the small green-nosed parrotfish.

He had caught this type of fish many times before, and he hadn’t planned on targeting these parrotfish tonight, but this blunt-headed parrotfish was too brazen, leisurely swimming right before his eyes.

The closest it came was even up to three meters, seemingly not the least bit afraid of his presence.

So reckless, he thought he’d lend it a hand.

The price difference between ice fresh and live blunt-headed parrotfish wasn’t significant, so Chu Mingcheng simply raised his spear gun and aimed, shooting the fish arrow with a “whoosh,” successfully taking half its life.

He then pulled the fish in, took out a bloodletting dagger, drained the weight from its body, and conveniently took the remaining half.

“No need to thank me!”

Chu Mingcheng hung the bled blunt-headed parrotfish on the live fish clip, silently uttering to himself.

He was just so keen on helping fish.

Following that, he successfully located the remaining six Rat Spots using the map’s markers.

Without exception, all were secured, with the largest weighing around ten pounds or so.

The seven Rat Spots were valued at roughly twenty-five thousand, and he felt that most likely, Wei Jiaguo would buy them all to fill his new aquarium.

After catching the Rat Spots, Chu Mingcheng returned to the boat to place all the fish into the live well and supply them with oxygen.

Then he continued at the coral reef, catching other species of fish.

Busy all night, the other two live wells soon began to operate, holding a variety of Groupers, parrotfish, and Snappers.

As for the Mackerel, Barracuda, and Red Friend that happened to pass by, they all became victims of Chu Mingcheng’s spear, delivered into the cold storage.

He also casually picked up seven scallops, bigger than a palm, and now it was already eleven at night, just as he was getting hungry; he could grill the scallops as a late-night snack.

He first prepared some vermicelli and soaked it in water.
