The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 49 - 48: Mighty Miracles

Fang Hao was really looking forward to what he could get from the Platinum Treasure Box.

The items he had gotten from previous openings were quite good, so this one shouldn't be too bad.

"Do you want to open the Treasure Chest now?"

The system sent the query.

"Yes."

He had been waiting for this moment, just for this moment.

The moment of opening the box.

The most exciting!

Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a specially made 3.6-meter nano boron fiber fishing rod assembly (sea fishing)!

Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a pair of specially made gloves!

Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a Power Pill!

When he opened the Treasure Chest, the rewards appeared one by one, instantly several rewards were before his eyes.

The first reward was a fishing rod and its component parts, again a new fishing rod, but this one was for sea fishing.

Different from the previous rods, this sea fishing rod was stronger and also made of a special material.

Nano boron fiber was lighter than the previous carbon fiber, stronger too, with only a third of the carbon fiber's weight but triple the strength.

He weighed it in his hand and found it was indeed lighter than the previous fishing rods.

Moreover, this rod was a system reward, which meant no corners had been cut in the material, it was genuinely made of nano boron fiber.

Not like the exaggerated claims outside, where the advertised material might be present, but the actual amount used was extremely minimal.

The difficulty of sea fishing determined the value of a sea fishing rod.

The sea fishing rod Fang Hao now held, if sold outside, would probably fetch over ten thousand W.

"This time the reward turned out to be a sea fishing rod!"

This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.

Fang Hao had tried sea fishing a few times before, though that was all in his previous life.

After crossing over to this parallel world, he hadn't tried it.

Mainly because he had been too poor before, without money to buy good equipment, let alone rent a boat to go out to sea.

The cost of sea fishing was much higher than regular fishing.

Poor folks couldn't afford to play.

Now with this new fishing rod, Fang Hao felt a tickle of excitement.

At the very least, he wouldn't need to buy sea fishing equipment, saving a good amount of expenditure.

He would just need to pay for the boat rental to go out to sea.

He now had over a hundred thousand in hand and felt more assured.

Maybe he could try sea fishing later on.

Before that, Fang Hao wanted to verify whether the problem lay with the system-awarded fishing rods.

Since he had started using the new rods, he hadn't caught any fish.

It wasn't catching a broken Ultraman radio, it was martial arts secret manuals; not a single fish had been caught.

Why couldn't he catch any fish?

He suspected the system might be playing tricks behind the scenes.

So, he planned to buy a new fishing rod later and give fishing another shot.

He would use his own purchased rod to see if the problem was with the rod or his luck.

As for the rod that had once caught a corpse, he wanted even less to do with it.

The system-awarded fishing rod was still under consideration.

After carefully examining the system-awarded fishing rod, Fang Hao put it back into the System Space.

Next, he checked the second reward.

The second reward was a pair of specially made gloves.

The gloves were very soft and didn't feel awkward when worn.

Fang Hao put on the gloves to try them out and found they did not affect the agility of his fingers.

He also discovered that these gloves were incredibly tough!

They were made of a special silk-thread material.

They were cut-resistant.

No need to worry about being cut by fishing lines or other sharp items.

This is good stuff.

He had previously cut his finger on a fishing line, but fortunately, he was lucky that time it was only a small cut.

Fang Hao was very pleased with this item and packed it away, along with the fishing clothes he had changed out of earlier.

The next time he went fishing, he could bring them both.

And the third reward was the Power Pill.

Just from the name, he knew this thing was for fortifying the body.

For strengthening muscles and increasing physical strength.

Power Pill... power brings miracles?

"Do I look that weak?"

Fang Hao was speechless.

He had already received Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills from a previous Golden Treasure Box, and now he got a Power Pill.

It was a good item, but something felt a bit odd.

He was still a bachelor, did he really need to supplement that much?

Supplementing wasn't even useful at this point.

Fang Hao had always thought his body was not bad, not the skinny type, but rather the kind who looked slender in clothes and muscular without them. A fisherman needed a good body; otherwise, even if he managed to hook a fish, he could easily be pulled into the water by it.

The Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills were still sitting in the System Space, and now the Power Pill was placed beside it.

They weren't needed for the time being.

He'd save them for when he had a girlfriend.

There was nothing wrong with his body; he was not going to randomly take medications.

Although the rewards seemed nice, the only thing he might actually use was the gloves.

Overall, Fang Hao was quite satisfied with the rewards.

The sea fishing rod was an unexpected surprise for him.

Having looked over the rewards, he stored away the items he didn't need.

He prepared to head out for a meal and then stop by to buy a fishing rod, as well as some other fishing gear supplies.

He wanted to see if getting a new fishing rod would make a difference.

Right now, Fang Hao just wanted to see if it was the system messing with him, intentionally rewarding him with a lousy fishing rod, or if his luck was really that bad.

He refused to believe it.

After buying a new fishing rod, there was no way he would still fail to catch fish.

Having reached the neighborhood entrance, he grabbed a twelve yuan fast-food meal and then headed to the fishing gear store.

This time, Fang Hao switched to a different fishing gear store, not the one he had visited before.

To his surprise, just as he entered the fishing gear store, he encountered a familiar figure.

It was Feifei, the female angler he had seen before at Baisa Reservoir; she had just finished shopping and was ready to leave.

Seeing her from such a close distance this time, Fang Hao noticed that this female angler was indeed quite attractive, with a face worth perhaps eighty to eighty-five points, not stunning, but considering she was without makeup, she was definitely above a large part of the population.

Her skin was a healthy wheat color, not very white, yet didn't appear rough. What was most noticeable was her physique, better than most people who work out regularly, with defined muscle lines and probably even some abs.

When Feifei saw Fang Hao, she too recognized the angler who had hooked a corpse, instantly recalling who he was.

Seeing Fang Hao here, she was a bit surprised as well, not expecting to run into him again.

She didn't think much of it and just politely greeted him with a nod.

Fang Hao cordially responded likewise.

The two passed by each other without much conversation, as they were only slightly acquainted from a few encounters.

...

"Hello, what are you looking to buy?"

The store owner, seeing Fang Hao come in, approached warmly.

"I'm looking for a fishing rod."

Fang Hao was here to buy a fishing rod.

"What price range are you interested in?"

...
