Chapter 64 Fishing Growth Route

The Purification mission reward of Cloud Field Domain Node makes all players excited.

The independent farming space mentioned in the reward is like a planting mini-game built into the original game, but only players who have achieved a contribution ranking are eligible to use it.

By asking Guidance, players learned that they only need to sow seeds in the Spiritual Field mini-game and wait for the spiritual plants to mature quickly until they are mined and harvested, and then implant new seeds.

This is equivalent to obtaining a small Sacrificial Power production pool.

Perhaps the income from the output will not be very high, but the point is that this Sacrificial Power income is additional income that is not produced through hunting, mining, etc.

It can be understood that you can make money by lying down.

Unfortunately, the corrosive core occupied by Cloud Field is very strong and can control a large number of corrupted plants with hunting levels of 30-45 to fight. Players at this stage simply do not have the strength to capture it.

But there are still players who have developed ways to earn contributions.

Although it cannot be occupied, the contribution value can be calculated as long as the output causes damage, which has opened up ideas for many players.

While the main force was concentrating on upgrading, some weaker players found another way and started the competition for the contribution list in advance, focusing on the idea that a small amount makes a big difference.

As a result, the contribution list of Purification Cloud Field became a competitive place for low-level players in the early stage.

6pm.

After a busy day, Wu Quan came home exhausted both physically and mentally.

Opening the door, a sumptuous dinner was already set on the dining table.

The robot butler greeted him warmly and asked if he had any other needs.

Ignoring the robot butler, Wu Quan threw his work bag to the sofa, washed his hands and started to eat.

After dinner, he took out his mobile phone and looked through the chat software. The first thing that caught his eye was the marriage urging message from his old mother.

Mom: I'm 30 and I still haven't found a partner. If you're not anxious, I'm still anxious to hold the baby (angry. jpg).

Mom: Why don't you reply? How do you feel about the girl Aunt Wang introduced to you recently? Do you have any thoughts on developing it further?

Mom: (Old mother's heartbreak. jpg) Tell Mom, do you like people of the same sex, so that's why you haven't found a partner?

After scrolling down the screen to read a series of inquiring text messages from my old mother, Wu Quan chose to ignore them.

After instructing the butler robot to clear away the dishes, he walked towards the game room.

Ever since he obtained the game qualification for <Dark Land> through a link, he would enter the game every day after get off work. This was one of the few joys he had.

His gaming time is from 8pm to 9pm the next day, and he also spends his sleeping time in the gaming barn.

But the way he plays the game is different from most players.

Hunting, gathering, exploring... these game methods seemed to him too tiring and not interesting at all.

When he was young, he was an avid game enthusiast, but as he grew older, his mentality towards playing games gradually became more Buddhist. He didn't like competition and only liked leisure and relaxation.

The only thing he enjoys playing games now is fishing.

Before experiencing Dark Land, he was a senior Fishing Party player.

Every holiday, I pack my gear and go fishing.

This process is very relaxing for him.

He usually chooses fishing locations near scenic waters, such as lakes, rivers, reservoirs or the seaside.

Every time he goes fishing, he can immerse himself in the natural environment, stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and enjoy the tranquility and beautiful scenery. During this period, he can bathe in the sunshine, breathe the fresh air, listen to the sound of the rippling water, and feel the cool breeze blowing on his face. The close contact with nature makes him relaxed and happy, and he forgets the worries at work.

The only regret is that there is no fish at all.

The Cloud Mist City where he is located is adjacent to the sea. During the Mechanical War, it was bombed by several alienated bombs. Although the pollution has been cleaned up, many fish species are still genetically mutated under the influence of the alienated bombs, and the difficulty of fishing has skyrocketed.

Especially in recent years, fish seem to have evolved wisdom. They won't eat fishy bait, fragrant bait, grain, or simulated bait... They won't eat this or that. The difficulty of catching fish has skyrocketed.

Sometimes he even wants to take out his mobile phone, click on the "Are you full" food delivery app, throw it into the water, let the fish order their favorite food, and then take the bait obediently.

The fun of fishing was reduced, so he thought of satisfying his hobby through virtual games.

The first thing I focused on was the recently released <Dark Land>, which is said to have a perfect sense of immersion.

I feel that since the promotion says this is an ultra-high fidelity game, there must be some non-mainstream gameplay, such as fishing.

But the biggest problem with this game is that it is extremely difficult to apply for game qualifications. You may not be able to buy it if you have money. You can only rush to buy it when the qualifications are issued on the official website. The winning rate is extremely low.

I thought that there was a high probability that I would not have the chance to play this game within three years.

But he didn't expect that a cracked version download link would appear in a well-known game guild group he joined a few years ago.

Fortunately, he got in the car and downloaded the game.

When he entered the game for the first time, he was amazed by the realism inside, and it also made him look forward to the fishing gameplay in the virtual game even more.

During these days of playing <Dark Land>, he traveled through mountains and rivers to explore in order to find a quiet fishing spot.

I finally found a "fishing treasure" a week ago.

The specific location is a small lake to the west of Emperor's Tomb Village and south of Spirit Artifact Valley. There are lush green plants and there are very few evil creatures and monsters. More importantly, there are a lot of fish life in the lake.

But there are still a series of problems that need to be solved to find a suitable fishing spot.

In addition to making Fishing Gear and fishing bait, more importantly, he also needs to have a strong body.

The weakest monsters in the game have powerful physical qualities that surpass the main human form. Unless the monster level is upgraded, fishing is impossible.

The fish life in the lake has a very high rate of biting bait, but biting bait does not mean success.

The key to success is to drag the fish biting the bait to the shore.

The initial form of Stone Gargoyle he chose is only level 1, and the fish-life Brute Force can easily drag him into the water and swallow him whole.

It's not certain who will catch whom.

In order to solve this problem, he followed the main force to Crimson Plains, Ancient Battlefield, and other areas to hunt for upgrades.

After a week of hard work, his Stone Gargoyle level reached level 12.

The process of upgrading was unexpectedly interesting, especially the increase in physical attributes brought about by each upgrade, which made him intoxicated.

But compared to hunting and upgrading, he has never forgotten his core goal of playing virtual games.

Now that the magic was accomplished, he felt it was time to start the fishing man's happiness.

After changing into a game suit, Wu Quan entered the game room and pressed the start button.

As the nutrient solution gushes out, various parts of the body automatically connect to nerve connection hoses, and the vision is gradually shrouded in darkness.

A few minutes later.

Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range, Turtleback Lake.

The lake water is crystal clear and sparkling.

By the lakeside, weeping willows linger, their gentle branches swaying in the wind, gently touching the water, causing circles of delicate ripples.

Not far away, there are reed-like plants growing in clusters. Their spike leaves sway gently in the wind, and their shadows are reflected on the lake, intertwining with the sky to form a moving picture.

Around the simple fishing platform built on the shore, wild flowers are blooming and colorful. Wu Quan sitting among them is enveloped in the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Fishing in such an environment is undoubtedly an ultimate enjoyment.

He hung a homemade fishhook with bait made from minced meat from a grain can and mixed with water. He flicked it with one hand, and the Fishing Line made by spinning and kneading Iron Shell Bug drew an arc in the air and landed accurately in the water.

Call up the built-in forum, Wu Quan leans back on the vine-woven seat, holds the rod in one hand, and fishes comfortably while browsing the forum information.

During this period, I also zoomed the guild chat interface in the upper left corner of my sight, and looked up from time to time to see what the guild brothers were doing.

The breeze blows on my face, Wu Quan is extremely comfortable.

At this moment, the fishing rod trembled slightly.

Realizing that there was a fish biting the bait, Wu Quan suddenly felt nervous and decisively switched to Stone Gargoyle form and held the fishing rod in his hand.

The fish life that had bitten its ears seemed to sense the danger and began to struggle. The fishing line tightened instantly, like a fully stretched bow string, and made a "swish" sound. A wave of Brute Force came over. Wu Quan's arm muscles tightened with every pull, and his expression was tense with anticipation.

The intensity of the fish's struggle for life continued to increase. Wu Quan also held on to the fishing rod tightly and changed from a sitting position to a standing position.

After a fierce tug, a big fish jumped out of the water, flicking its tail and flipping in the air, crystal water droplets splashing, and its red scales shining brightly under the Waning Crescent Moon moonlight.

"Come here!"

Wu Quan exerted force violently, and the big fish, which had nowhere to rely on in the air, flew towards the shore.

Snap!

The big fish fell into the flowers and kept flapping, flying several meters high every time it flicked its tail.

Focusing his eyes, the analytical information of the big fish came into view.

[Red Scale Fish(Monster)]

Hunting Level: 4

Target introduction: A low-level monster unique to the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range area. It feeds on water plants and will attack other aquatic creatures when it is overly hungry.

Guidance Note: This monster has high edible value. After killing it, you can choose to automatically decompose it into "Red Scale Fish meat" and enter it into your space bag, or choose to kill it normally and get feedback from Evolution Points and Sacrificial Power.

This was Wu Quan's first successful fishing, and I couldn't help laughing.

But instead of rushing to deal with Red Scale Fish, he turned on the screenshot function, took a photo with Red Scale Fish and sent it to the guild group chat channel.

One of the joys of fishing is sharing.

After doing all this, he took out the hatchet he bought during leveling from his space bag and killed the flapping Red Scale Fish.

Suddenly the kill feedback option popped up in his mind.

The choice of fish was between Evolution Points and Sacrificial Power. Wu Quan chose fish after a brief thought.

Immediately, the All Things Extraction system in Challenger System started. The dead red carp in Wu Quan's eyes was decomposed by invisible forces, and there was a pile of scaled and sliced fish meat on the ground.

[Red Scale Fish meat x3]

Spiritual food quality: 2

Eating effect: Increases satiety. Each portion of Red Scale Fish meat can be used to obtain a 30-point Body Refining Experience bonus.

Red Scale Fish's meat analysis information surprised Wu Quan.

Three portions of fish meat can provide a total of 90 Body Refining Experience points. The consumption of Sacrificial Power to upgrade Body Tempering is 90 Sacrificial Power points. In his opinion, this is much higher than the profit from hunting evil spirits.

Normal level 4 evil spirits cannot give such high Sacrificial Power benefits.

The only disadvantage is that there is no Evolution Points benefit if you choose to decompose it into fish meat, and the fishing time is longer, which is enough to kill several evil spirits.

But this discovery still makes Wu Quan excited.

This means fishing can also become stronger.

Kill the life in the water to get Evolution Points and Sacrificial Power. The decomposed fish meat can be used as food rations to get Body Refining Experience.

This discovery made him feel that he would have many more options for fishing in the future.

Strength is the key to success in Monster World. He can definitely become stronger while fishing. In the future, Monster World's rivers, rivers, lakes and seas can be his fishing spots.

Thinking of this, Wu Quan felt happy and felt that he had found his future goal.

Picking up the Red Scale Fish meat on the ground, he threw two of the fish meat into his space bag, and put the remaining piece on the tip of his nose to smell it.

The faint fragrance lingered in his nose, and as he didn't like raw food, he had the urge to take a bite.

Thinking that this was a game and that there were no hidden dangers such as parasites in raw meat, he tried to take a small bite.

The moment the fish meat entered the mouth, Wu Quan's eyes widened.

This was a taste he had never tasted in the real world. The delicacy and tenderness in his mouth were far from what he thought fish meat could be. It seemed to contain an indescribable agility and freshness, like the dewdrops in the early morning sliding over the young leaves, or like the clear spring in the mountains blowing through his heart.

Chew gently and the fish meat melts on the tip of your tongue.

The light fragrance turns into a strong one, stirring in the mouth and nose, and the freshness penetrates into the taste buds.

The pores all over the body relax, and all the cells in the body seem to be activated by this delicious food, screaming in pleasure.

"Damn, this is too delicious."

The Red Scale Fish meat with spiritual substances completely conquered Wu Quan's taste buds. He devoured the fish meat in a few mouthfuls. The other two pieces of Red Scale Fish meat that he originally planned to save as food rations were also taken out and eaten.

While getting 90 points Body Refining Experience, Wu Quan still has more to say.

"Delicious, so delicious."

After tasting the fish meat of Monster World for the first time, Wu Quan's passion for fishing was completely inspired.

"I wonder what grilled fish tastes like."

He bought a torch from the mall and stuck it in the soil next to the fishing platform. He returned to the fishing platform and sat down again, picked up the fishing rod and took a shot full of expectations.

While continuing to fish, Wu Quan decided to publish his findings in the form of a guide on the player forum.

After experiencing this game these days, he understood a truth.

If any field in the game wants to develop rapidly, it is difficult to promote it by just one person's ability. It requires a large number of players to join and develop together.

For example, in the game Arms Dealer Guild, a group of players who love weapon research and development join to explore the future together.

Another example is the development of the Astral Veins combination. It was precisely because of the participation of a large number of players that many powerful schools of Monster Soul combinations emerged.

As a Fishing Party player, Wu Quan feels that fishing requires a large number of players to join in and jointly expand the upper limit of this genre.

Bait preparation, Fishing Line selection, fishing rod production... If you want to catch high-level aquatic creatures, he alone can't go far.

More players are needed to join in and brainstorm to solve various problems that may be encountered in the future, and even upgrade Fishing Gear equipment.
