When Dafei woke up, it was already six o 'clock at night. Three days had passed in the game, and the boat had drifted on the sea for three days. He didn't know where it had drifted to. Dafei's character had been starving and thirsty for three days and was extremely weak.
All in all, it was good that nothing had happened. Dafei hurriedly went downstairs to eat a plate of fried rice, then returned to the computer and continued to stare at the sea in a daze.
The sea was calm, and the sky was clear. Generally speaking, there were more seabirds near islands or land. Needless to say, there was not a single bird's feather, so they were definitely in the middle of the ocean. Although the sea in the game wasn't as big as this, it was absolutely terrifying compared to the current drifting speed. When will I end up drifting like this?
I have 7 Skill Points right now. Should I max out my Navigation? That way, my speed will increase by 100%, and I'll have to be more powerful when I drift … No, no! In this situation, I will most likely need to kill monsters and do quests to slowly earn repair fees, so I have to save skill points for battle.
Sigh, I'm in a dilemma. I won't have a good time after completing this trial quest. Forget it, it's not a good thing for my character to be so weak. It's time to eat something. Although the newbie's 7-day rations were gone, he still managed to find some seafood on the island, so he was able to make it through.
Dafei opened his inventory and was immediately stunned.
— — Rotten ingredients: Ingredients that have passed their expiration date, will show symptoms of poisoning after eating.
F * ck! There's also an expiration date! Don't be a pain in the ass! What should I do? Can I just drink water?
Tsk! Not a problem for me.
Dafei dragged his weak body slowly to the lower deck of the gun cabin, and took out a dozen fishing rods from the box. Hehe, I found them in the gun cabin in the dark that night. It was impossible for a sailor to not have a fishing rod. And this slow drifting was the most suitable for fishing. As for the bait, of course, it was these rotten ingredients.
There were special hooks at the end of the sailors' fishing rods. Therefore, Dafei hung his fishing rods in a row on the ship's side. He was painfully looking through those unnutritious nautical diaries while waiting for the fish to take the bait.
The system didn't disappoint Dafei. In a day's time, he had caught all kinds of small fish. He could only eat them raw. The seamen even called fleas sesame seeds. In short, although eating it raw caused a debuff that reduced damage, the problem of food and clothing was finally solved. After drinking a few mouthfuls of water, my stamina recovered.
Then, Dafei felt a pain in the ass again. He could only continue fishing. I really don't like fishing, but if I can catch a drift bottle that can fulfill three of my wishes, then that's another matter. I can also catch a mermaid.
This time, Dafei's bait was of high quality. It was those small fish. However, the system did not let Dafei be lonely.
It had been too long. The fishing rod shook. He had something!
— System Notification: You've caught a Great Sailfish. Obtained + 135 experience!
Eh! A fish that gave experience! Big guy! Back then, I couldn't even beat a fish of this size in the sea on the island.
Dafei finally found some fun. Since he could use trash to catch small fish and small fish to catch medium fish, then medium fish would definitely be able to catch a big fish, right? Then, he would carry on until the end.
Dafei used up a lot of his stamina and almost broke the fishing rod before he managed to lift the fish that was half the size of a human. Then, he tried to combine the tens of fishing rods into one and cruelly stuffed the tens of fishing hooks into the fish's body.
Since he was fishing for a big fish, the fishing line had to be sturdy and the fishing hooks had to be plentiful. However, if a big fish really took the bait, these fishing rods and fishing lines wouldn't be reliable, right?
After thinking about it, Dafei found a large bundle of spare ropes to control the sail. He tied the fish into a big dumpling and tied the other end to the mast. That should be fine, right? Then, he threw the fish back into the sea.
However, he didn't know if the system would admit that he was fishing. If he didn't admit that he was fishing, then wouldn't he be fighting monsters?
Fighting monsters, right? He loved it the most. His Ballista was thirsty for it!
Thus, Dafei returned to the cannon cabin and spent ten minutes to reassemble the Ballista. The Ballista only had 8 HP left. However, it didn't matter. The current situation was completely different. The cannon cabin was the Ballista's life. If he wanted to get rid of this Ballista with 8 HP, he would first have to lift the cannon cabin. He believed that a big fish definitely wouldn't be able to do that.
Time passed minute by minute. The sun rose in the east and set in the west. Two hours in the real world and one day in the game passed just like that. It wasn't easy to meet a predator that could eat such a big bait in the sea. Perhaps, the system really didn't recognize this method of twisting dozens of fishing rods into one and reinforcing ropes as fishing, so it didn't let the fish take the bait?
It didn't matter. He would slowly drift.
Dafei couldn't stand the routine daily accounts of the ordinary sailors anymore. Wholesale was wholesale. The system didn't arrange too many scenes for them. The captain's diary was even more unbearably boring. It was full of sermons. An excellent navigator should have a strong will, pay attention to concentration, and be vigilant at all times. Political commissar? It wasn't as interesting as the gunner captain's diary. It seemed that the information provided in the diary stopped here.
The night passed and a new day began. Dafei stared blankly at the brilliant rays and the sunrise over the sea. Perhaps the scenery was beautiful and magnificent after one or two days out at sea, but after a long time, it would probably be so boring that it would drive people crazy. For example, the sailors in the gunner captain's diary who played cards every day to get by. The profession of a sailor really wasn't for the average person. If there was a woman on the ship, it would be better. Damn, if there was a woman, would it still be called going out to sea? Wouldn't it be the yachts of the rich that had their own bikini girls? How enviable.
If he became rich, he would definitely hire the most beautiful heroines in the tavern and then bring them on the ship. He would buy the most coquettish bikinis for them to wear and let the sailors bleed every night! Wahahaha!
After daydreaming for a long time, the fishing rod hanging on the side of the ship suddenly shook and made a creaking sound. The rope that tied the fish also suddenly became taut.
Dafei's heart skipped a beat. A big fish took the bait? He quickly poked his head out to take a look. The sea was surging! Damn, it really was a big fish! Don't even think about lifting this kind of fish. A big fish that could swallow a fish half the size of a human would definitely give a lot of experience!
Dafei immediately ran to the gunner's cabin. The ballista was already loaded. Take aim! Fire!
Boom! Boom! Two crossbow bolts shot out, stirring up a huge splash. "Missed!" "Missed!"
Damn! There was actually a pain in the ass miss! Yes, the gunner captain had also said in the diary that it was a pain in the ass, so there was nothing more to say. Continue loading! This time, I have to look carefully and wait for it to jump out of the water!
— Boom! "-33" "-21"
— System Notification: You have received incomplete information about the giant tuna.
Dafei perked up. Giant tuna? BOSS? He couldn't care less. He continued to fire. However, the range of the damage was too big. The ballista was indeed disadvantageous against underwater creatures. Fortunately, its throat had swallowed more than ten fish hooks. The more it struggled, the more "-2" "-3" "-2" "-3" "-2" "-3" would automatically lose HP. That's good!
The battle went on for more than half an hour. Amidst the splatter of blood and the roar of the ballista, a giant tuna more than ten meters long finally floated out of the water with its belly facing the sky.
— System Notification: You have killed the giant tuna. Obtained experience + 20000. Obtained the special item "Tuna Egg"
— System Notification: You have killed 10 Leader Bosses alone. Completed the achievement "Lone Hero 10 Consecutive Wins". Obtained rewards: HP + 15, personal basic damage + 1. The next achievement "Lone Hero 100 Consecutive Wins" requires the hero to kill 100 Bosses higher than your level without any troops.
— System Notification: You have further improved the information about the giant tuna.
Dafei laughed out loud! He had finally completed the achievement! Sailing was actually not boring. He was too lazy to look at the information. Meeting a Boss in the sea once in his life was already good enough. Let's see what this fish egg is.
— Tuna Egg: Seafood. Tuna can be bred in the fishing grounds of the territory near the sea. Tuna is a very delicious large marine fish. It is difficult to catch and very popular in the market.
So it is a territory specialty! This is a good thing. It is not easy for players to be Lords. Building soldiers, raising soldiers, and building cities all require money. There are not many ways to earn money. One more specialty is one more money tree. I can just put it up on the internet and sell it at least hundreds of thousands. I am rich, I am rich, wahahaha! Sailing is really good!
No, no, no. Is it easy to meet a big Boss in the vast sea? Even if I meet a Boss and can kill it, it is not easy. Not everyone is as wise and brave as me. Why should I sell it to others? I will occupy an island on the sea, build a city, build a fishing ground, and raise fish. Wouldn't that be a big money printing machine? But it is not easy to build a city. The initial investment is also very large. In short, I will keep it in my hands and not rush to sell it. I will see how it goes.
At this moment.
— System Notification: Detection warning! A large number of enemies are approaching you. Please be vigilant.
Dafei was shocked! A large number of enemies! He immediately took out his binoculars and looked around. Sure enough, he saw a large school of blue and black fish breaking through the waves in the distance. Sharks!
