Lu Yang said, "Someone go back and exchange the big fish. You won't be able to catch another one for the time being."
Big fish could be exchanged for Pure Pearls to upgrade equipment levels, but they were rare and could not be caught every time. In his previous life, players had run tests: five players could catch at most seven pearls in a day.
They had caught one now, and they would have to wait at least three hours for the next one. There was no need to keep trying to catch big fish.
"I'll exchange it." Aisha happily hugged the big fish and flew back to the village.
Diamond asked, "Brother, you're the first player to figure out this fishing method. We thought big fish were caught with rods too, but it turns out they have to be killed with harpoons. No wonder we couldn't catch any before."
Lu Yang said with a smile, "Don't spread this method around. It's enough for the few of you to know. If you keep it quiet, you can make a small fortune."
Ayala said to Lu Yang, "Thank you. I really don't know how to repay you. We haven't helped you with anything, yet we've benefited from you instead."
Lu Yang said, "If you feel bad about it, help me catch Cleft-Beard Sea Serpents."
"Sure," Ayala said.
Lu Yang told them how deep to cast their hooks and began fishing with them. Before long, Aisha returned, gave the pearl to Lu Yang, and joined them.
After several minutes, all five of their hooks suddenly began moving at once.
"It's Cleft-Beard Sea Serpents. Listen to my command. Pull for nine seconds, then release for two," Lu Yang said.
"Won't it come off the hook if we pull for that long?" Diamond asked
