Chapter 311: Showcasing Skills

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Demon Shark, an ultra-rare breed of aquatic creatures!

‘Catching the Demon Shark can give me at least 500 points!’ Lin Jie’s eyes were glued to the Demon Shark. However, the difficulty of capturing the Demon Sark was also insanely high! Other than testing the player’s fishing techniques, it also tested the individual’s attributes and usage of the different skills and equipment. Any error or fall into the water would lead to an Instakill.

The Demon Shark, as an ultra-rare aquatic monster, possessed the ability of Instakill.

“Gosh, it is the Demon Shark!”

The voice was coquettish and left the impression that the owner was a demure young lady from a respectable family. On a wooden canoe not far away stood a female Bandit clad in a black sports attire. The body con armor brought out her perfect figure, her beautiful fair face was further enhanced with the beauty mole between her brows.

Baili Mei Niang!

It never occurred to Lin Jie that he would meet her here. He was among the batch of players to leave the island and was the fastest. Unless the other party managed to get onto the canoe and left the island the moment they were transported out by the portal. As to how she knew about the tips to fight for a canoe, that was an unknown.

“Hehe, hello handsome,” Baili Mei Niang giggled and said gently. She really was a beauty.

Lin Jie grunted coldly and drew out some Blade Aura with the fishing rod held in his right hand! In this night of fishing festiveness, all players’ skills would not inflict any damage. Even if one’s attack was up to tens of thousands, they would only inflict basic pain onto other players. Those that used Fire Elements would only inflict some burn but zero damage. The same went for other skills as well. However, the effects of skills onto Mother Nature and biological creatures were still present. Hence, the competition became a platform for the players to showcase their niche skills.

The Blade Aura exploded on the water surface, the scuttling water startled the Demon Shark. Its humongous body twisted suddenly, then with a ‘Bang’, a thin golden silk string was torn. Baili Mei Niang let out a shriek and almost fell.

“Ah, you had your eyes on this fish as well? You should have said so earlier, then you wouldn’t have to fish it so sneakily, right?” Lin Jie feigned a look of surprise. “See, I startled the fish accidentally.”

Baili Mei Niang replied with mild embarrassment, “You found the fish first, you should go first.”

“Nope, I am a gentleman, hence ladies first,” said Lin Jie calmly.

Baili Mei Niang’s eyes flashed. How could she trust that Lin Jie would be so silly to let her go first? This Demon Shark was an ultra-rare breed, and it would at least award 500 Points! Whoever got it would definitely rank first. Both parties had their own plans but did not point out each others’.

“Hehe, you are a handsome lad with such great manners. Then, I shall really go for it, don’t you regret it when I succeed.” Baili Mei Niang smiled seductively and flipped her palm. A tiny pink bottle fell onto her hands. Inside the bottle were many squirming pink earthworms that were letting out faint female-like laughs, sending shivers down one’s back. It was the [Pink Earthworms]. This was the prize Baili Mei Niang had received when she had become the disciple of a wandering fisherman while she was fishing at the Endless Sea. Other than that, she had also gained a specific fishing skill.

Once the pink earthworms appeared, Lin Jie felt as though something was not right.

This type of earthworm required Master-Level fishing skills to utilize. For Baili Mei Niang to use them as a fishing bait so easily, could it be that her skill level had reached that level? Impossible! Even if she had spent all her to practice fishing, it would already have been pretty good to reach High-Level. Furthermore, she was among the top few Bandits in the Three Alliances. Hence, she would probably have spent the bulk of her time training, and would not have time to practice fishing.

“Fishing Technique, Shark Fishing skill!”

As the pink earthworms entered the sea, a peach blossom scent emitted, even savage creatures like the Demon Shark started to inhale the scent. As the seawater in front of the shark flowed towards the shark during its inhaling, the shark’s body started to glow red rapidly. The pink earthworms were able to cause fish’s sexual desires to be amplified, while causing them to be delusional and emit certain substances, which would then tire the creatures out, causing them to lose the ability to fight.

Baili Mei Niang observed the effects of the pink earthworms taking place and attacked immediately. The [Golden Silk Fishing Rod] in her hands waved and attempted to drag the shark up. The Demon Shark seemed to be half-awake. Upon feeling the force, it intuitively struggled for several rounds, but ultimately got pulled to the sea surface as though it was drunk.

“Pat, pat, pat, pat!”

Lin Jie laughed and could not help but start clapping. “As expected! No wonder you can rank in top 10, you actually went to learn job-specific skills like Shark Fishing, amazing!”

Baili Mei Niang frowned and wondered what Lin Jie’s purpose was. She increased the strength to fish up the shark at a greater rate.

“Amazing!”

Lin Jie praised once again. However, when the praise came out of his mouth, the air seemed to start vibrating! Lin Jie was the first one to discover the Demon Shark, how could he give it away so easily? Furthermore, this woman was part of the Three Alliances, and under Baili Xuanyuan!

Outraged Roar!

“Oh no! Bastard!” shouted Baili Mei Niang.

More than half of the Demon Shark’s body was out of the water and was soon to be hers. Unfortunately, it woke up in the midst of Lin Jie’s Outraged Roar. It struggled violently for a moment and successfully escaped back into the water. Baili Mei Niang was enraged as she was so close to getting the shark!

“It must be hard for you to fish for such a heavy creature, let me help out with this sort of manual work. However, I still have to thank you for your hard work. The Demon Shark does not have much energy left, and that will save me quite a lot of work, Ice Spirit Slash!”

While speaking, Lin Jie unleashed his skill, which froze Baili Mei Niang immediately. His fishing rod jerked abruptly, and the hook fired into the Demon Shark’s mouth. There was an explosion of strength, and the sea surface seemed turbulent as though there was an explosion. Lin Jie raised the shark’s body and bagged it. Lin Jie captured the shark violently while it was dizzy and limped!

—’Congratulations, you have fished the ultra-rare breed of Demon Shark, you have received 650 points! Fishing Familiarity +10!’

“Hahahaha!” Lin Jie chuckled out loud.

Fishing was not an easy task as it required many techniques. Smaller fish required a low duty diagonal rod, while larger fish required a heavy-duty diagonal rod, seahorse and octopus required a medium-strength straight rod... and a variety of insider tips. Not to mention the Demon Shark, if it was only Lin Jie, he would have to spend a great deal of effort such as enticing, decoying, and pulling to tire it out to even have a small chance of successfully fishing it. He totally did not expect Baili Mei Niang to have phenomenal items like the Pink Earthworms! An item only usable by Master-Level players, coupled with her special skill [Shark Fishing], she was able to confuse the shark and let Lin Jie benefit from it.

[Demon Shark]: Ultra-Rare breed of aquatic creatures, can be cooked as “Shark Stew” and feed up to 10 pax. Increases Critical Strike Chance by 1% upon consumption.

This Demon Shark was really phenomenal. No wonder it held the title of ultra-rare! 1% of Critical Strike Chance, and up to 10 pax at once. How powerful would the effect be?

Baili Mei Niang emerged from the cold ice and realized that Lin Jie had already bagged the Demon Shark.

Codename Lone Wolf, who was ranked first, had a major boost of 500 points, a whole 400 points before the second rank, and 650 points before her!

She pointed to Lin Jie and shouted with rage, “I cannot believe how despicable you are!”

Lin Jie was in a great mood and grinned. “If you have any despicable moves, please feel free to use them against me. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to entertain you now, bye-bye.”

Lin Jie moved the canoe and left to continue his search for surf cast fishing groups. From the moment he had the Demon Shark, it was already determined that he would enter the final round as the first place! As though he had a change of luck, Lin Jie had a smooth sailing experience while looking for surf casts. He managed to gain 5 gift bags at once, which made him really happy.

Baili Mei Niang was fuming, however, the priority was still the competition. Thus, she had to put aside the grudges and focus on fishing! Fishing Festival had a final round, which only accepted 20 players, it would be a real loss if she failed to enter!

In the midst of surfcasting, Lin Jie opened the Leaderboard and observed the Ranking Board.

The Leaderboard had a few thousand pages, even though those bottom few couldn’t care less, this participation rate was still pretty scary! There were 5,000 players participating in the fishing festival alone!

Savage Blade had a decent ranking after instantly fighting for a wooden canoe, as per to Lin Jie’s instructions. However, for the team to emerge top 20 was an unrealistic thought as there were many hidden experts among such a big pool of players. Savage Blade only had Bu Yi ranked 18, who had decent fishing skills and luck. The other team members’ rankings were in the thousands.

Qiu Yuan was one of the worst. She had been teleported to the center of the island and had been caught among the human traffic. Thus, she had not managed to catch a single fish.

Lin Jie was surprised that Inksnow, the Legend MT was at 8th place, next to Dumb Fox! Did both of them have such superior fishing skills?

Other than that, Great Precision’s points had ceased to increase, while Ghost Eyes, who was the Chairman of the Hunter’s Guild, had an insane rise and emerged in the top 20.

“That was pretty smart, making use of the last minute clutch to split the points forcefully. What a pity that Qiu Yuan and Ziliang are not next to me. Otherwise, they could have gained another spot.” Lin Jie was pondering while the system’s prompt message arrived!

Ding~

—System notification: You have successfully gained the final qualification and are allowed access into [Aquatic World], do you want to enter now?

The preliminaries had ended!

Lin Jie glanced at Bu Yi’s points, as Ghost Eyes and Dumb Fox had risen up the ranking, she was placed 20th!

‘It should be alright,’ thought Lin Jie.

He said without any hesitation, “Enter now!”

Whoosh!

Mid-air, a vortex sucked Lin Jie in and threw him into a silent underwater world!

—Welcome to Aquatic World!

Aquatic World was the deepest part of the eye of the vortex.

Just like an adventurer that finally reached the ancient castle with buried treasures after hardships, Aquatic World was the castle’s basement treasure trove.

The moment Lin Jie stepped foot into the map, he immediately disregarded his image and took a giant gulp of seawater, as though any later it would be gone.

—’You have consumed Source of Water! Strength +1, Agility +1, Endurance +1, Wisdom +10, Spirit +10.’

Simultaneously, the system announcement sounded.

—”System Announcement: Congratulations player “Codename Lone Wolf” for being the first to enter Aquatic World! Gained The New Age [Secret Pioneer Explorer], gained 1 The New Age Accomplishment point!”

—”System Announcement: Congratulations player “Codename Lone Wolf” for being the first to enter Aquatic World! Gained The New Age [Secret Pioneer Explorer], gained 1 The New Age Accomplishment point!”

—”System Announcement: Congratulations player “Codename Lone Wolf” for being the first to enter Aquatic World! Gained The New Age [Secret Pioneer Explorer], gained 1 The New Age Accomplishment point!”

The colorful announcements rang three times in total!
