I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 196 - 57: Reader
After allowing the Fear Shadow Touch to undergo metamorphosis, Rogel turned his attention once again to the fishing pool in front of him.
"Once more."
Rogel attached bait to the threaded fishing rod, cast the line into the water, and waited quietly.
[Fishing in progress...]
After a while, the pure white fishing pool suddenly began to show some movement.
Swish!
A strong pulling force came again.
Rogel's body burst with powerful strength, barely stabilizing, as he began to control the fishing line.
But the thing in the water struggled with such force that even though Rogel released a lot of line, he couldn't withstand the powerful tug.
Bang!
[Your fishing rod has been damaged.]
Rogel looked at the fishing rod in his hand and fell into thought.
Wasn't it promised there would never be a time of coming back empty-handed?
Unbelieving in bad luck, Rogel reloaded a save to try again.
Yet, after trying more than a dozen times, Rogel finally managed to reel in something with great difficulty.
In the middle of his attempts, Rogel specifically used his derived skill [Fishing Vision] to skew the catch towards blueprints.
[You caught: Ordinary Forging Stone×1.]
[You caught: Crab Shell Leg Armor (Blueprint)×1.]
[Your fishing rod is damaged.]
After holding out for a few rounds with difficulty, the threaded fishing rod broke again.
Rogel looked toward the Whale Merchant beside him.
"Let's try this Pure White Fishing Rod."
Rogel exchanged stone coins to get it from the Whale Merchant.
[You spent 30 stone coins to exchange for a "Pure White Fishing Rod."]
After investing stone coins, a glow appeared above the Whale Merchant's Secret Statue, and a pure white, exquisite fishing rod, enveloped in light, landed in Rogel's hands.
[You obtained a Pure White Fishing Rod×1.]
[Pure White Fishing Rod]
[Type: Item·Extraordinary]
[Quality: Purple]
[Special Effect: Fishing in the Pure White Fishing Pool grants a slight luck bonus.]
[Negative Effect: Luck decreases when using bait other than Pure White Bait.]
[Explanation: Exclusive fishing rod for the Pure White Fishing Pool.]
"..."
"So they come with bundled sales, huh?"
After glancing at the negative effect of the Pure White Fishing Rod, Rogel was speechless.
Luck is crucial for fishermen.
The result is, the negative effect of this broken fishing rod actually decreases luck.
"If I can't catch anything good, I'm going to smash this darn rock and throw it into the pool."
Displeased, Rogel approached the Whale Merchant Secret Statue and spent three stone coins to exchange for ten pieces of bait.
[You spent three stone coins to exchange for Pure White Bait×10.]
After attaching the Pure White Bait to the hook, Rogel quickly cast the line into the water again.
Pay-to-win has immediate effects.
Soon, something took the bait.
This time, Rogel could clearly feel the pulling force in the water was much weaker than before.
After a hustle and bustle, a pure white fish appeared on the surface, struggling strongly.
Rogel quickly reeled it up and held it in his hand.
Once Rogel grasped the pure white fish, it instantly turned into light and vanished, transforming into a small bag.
[You caught: Stone Coin Bag×1.]
Rogel opened it and found five stone coins inside.
"Not bad, got my money back on the bait."
Seeing this, Rogel nodded,
This is what spending money can do.
"Continue!"
Having yielded results, Rogel decided to keep it up.
This time, he started to use his fishing skills, closing his eyes and silently reciting "magic potion," "magic potion recipe," "potion," "blueprint"...
After activating the skill.
Rogel waited for quite a while without any movement on the fishing rod.
This caused him to furrow his brow slightly.
"Isn't there even a magic potion recipe in this pool?"
He was a bit disappointed.
If those items were missing, the value of the Pure White Fishing Pool would be significantly reduced.
With patience, Rogel waited, and after a while, there was finally some movement above the Pure White Fishing Pool.
Plop.
The float sank.
Then, suddenly, a huge pulling force shot through him, sending a shiver through Rogel's body.
"Something big is coming!"
This thought flashed through Rogel's mind.
But he didn't have time to think more.
He began to concentrate entirely on the duel with the creature beneath the water.
Splash! Splash!
Ripples started to appear on the water's surface.
Rogel could distinctly see a large pure white fish fiercely fighting, trying to break free from the control.
The fish was not only large but also... had purple edges!
Rogel's eyes were wide open, and he quickly saved a file.
If he didn't catch this fish, he would never forgive himself!
"Come on!"
After a fierce struggle, the white giant fish's strength finally waned, and Rogel quickly pulled it up.
A half-meter-long white fish with purple streaks was hooked, flapping ceaselessly.
Rogel dashed over and pressed it securely beneath him.
However, in a comically absurd twist, just as Rogel touched the fish, it turned into white light specks and disappeared, becoming a blueprint.
[You caught: Reader (Magic Potion Recipe, includes crafting insight)×1.]
"What the...!"
Looking at the blueprint beneath him, Rogel was somewhat exasperated.
How did the fish turn back into this, and he hadn't even gotten enough thrill!
With a sigh, Rogel picked up the blueprint and began to examine it.
