: Recruiting Fishing Gurus, A Bountiful Fishing Harvest!

First, fifty pounds of fresh fish meat. Although this seems like enough to solve the food problem for the next few days, the immediate issue is how to shake off the fog of confusion behind us!

Instead of thinking about running fast, what does it mean to be carrying fifty pounds of fish?

Could it be that you don't want to starve to death?

A big meal before leaving?

Looking at the third option, obtaining an upgrade card, it seems quite practical and can solve my current problem. If I hadn't chosen the first reward option, I might have actually chosen it.

Unfortunately... compared to the Fisherman's Boat (option one), it offers absolutely no value for money!

As an extraordinary vessel introduced by the system, it not only has a space of 500 units, but also a speed of 80 knots. In terms of basic vessel data alone, it already surpasses automatic fishing boats.

Not to mention it also possesses extraordinary abilities!

It's a complete game-changer!

Thinking of this, Ye Fan subconsciously said, "I choose the first option!"

...

"Ding! Selection successful, Fisherman is evolving!"

As the system notification sounded again, Ye Fan's small fishing boat immediately emitted a dazzling white light, and then began to expand continuously under his attention, quickly transforming from a fishing boat where it was difficult to even find a foothold into a huge Fisherman's Boat!

Fisherman's Boat

[Level: Extraordinary Level 1]

[Ship Status: Durability 200/200, Capacity 500 units, Speed ​​80 knots]

【Skill:

Fishing Assistant: You can recruit a fisherman with full loyalty by consuming 200 units of fish meat. The fisherman can catch treasure fish, each with magical effects! (First recruitment only requires 10 units of fish meat!)

Never Go Home Empty-Handed: All creatures on this ship will never go home empty-handed when fishing, and the fishing yield will be greatly increased, with a huge boost to the probability of catching fish!

Fish Identification Technique: When fishing on the Fisherman's Boat, only beneficial fish will be hooked; a warning will be issued when harmful fish are caught!

Note: The Fisherman is an extraordinary vessel that can sail without consuming any energy!

.....

After reading the ship's information, Ye Fan was overjoyed. This was indeed a good ship; it could sail without consuming any energy!

Besides, this boat's extraordinary capabilities are enough to drive any angler crazy, because it's guaranteed to never come back empty-handed. Once you board this boat, your fishing ability will be maxed out.

After reviewing the ship's skills, Ye Fan looked at the entire ship. The hull was black, and an unknown giant fish skeleton hung on its exterior.

The deck was covered with a layer of fish oil, which was sticky underfoot, and made a squeaking sound with every step.

The ship is about thirteen meters long and at least five or six meters wide. It consists of several parts, including the captain's cabin, deck, cabin, rudder, and mast. Although the facilities are relatively simple, it has all the necessary functions!

Compared to his initial small fishing boat, it was like heaven and earth!

Ye Fan is now completely transformed, and he's in an incredibly good mood. Not only does he no longer have to worry about being caught by the Fog of Lost Souls, but his quality of life has also been greatly improved!

He walked to the bow of the ship, looked at the vast ocean in front of him, and his previous fear of the ocean completely disappeared!

At this moment, Ye Fan remembered the [Regional Channel] again. He wanted to see how the people nearby were doing and if there was any useful information.

"I feel terrible! Does anyone have any water? It's so unbearable here! They won't even give us water. How can anyone survive like this!"

"It's so hot at sea. I feel like I have heatstroke. I'm very weak and could faint at any moment."

"Everyone should try fishing. I think everyone has a fishing rod and bait on their boat. Fishing should solve the food problem!"

"I'm going! Fishing is so hard! And I have to row at the same time to maintain speed, otherwise the fog of confusion behind me will catch up!"

"Damn it, are there any fish in this sea? Why is my fishing rod not reacting at all after I've been fishing for so long?"

......

The regional channel was filled with wailing; everyone had their own difficulties, and the atmosphere was one of despair and panic.

Upon seeing these people, Ye Fan felt a wave of fear wash over him. If he hadn't awakened the system, he probably wouldn't be in much better shape than these people on the channel!

However, even though they have already acquired the Fisherman, they no longer need to worry about the energy for navigation or the frantic task of dodging the Lost Fog behind them.

However, the food problem still needs to be solved. Right now, the Fisherman has complete facilities, but not enough food!

Next, he still needs to solve the food problem, otherwise, even if he stays on the Fisherman's Ship, he will starve to death.

Moreover, if he wanted to recruit fishing assistants, he would need 10 units of fish meat, and Ye Fan was currently in dire need of fish meat.

"Let's try fishing."

Ye Fan picked up the fishing rod from the deck. As a beginner's tool, it was something that almost everyone had, and the quality of them was probably similar. Besides fishing, it didn't have any other special uses.

As a beginner, he awkwardly baited the hook and cast it into the sea. Before long, the fishing rod reacted, indicating that a fish had been hooked. Almost instantly, Ye Fan perked up and pulled hard with both hands!

A sea fish as long as an arm was caught and just pulled onto the boat.

A text prompt box popped up in front of Ye Fan's eyes.

[Common-grade sea fish: Can be broken down into 8 units of fresh fish meat!]

...

"So easy? That's ridiculously easy."

Ye Fan looked at the sea fish thrashing on the deck and still felt a little unreal. Before today, he was a beginner who had never even touched a fishing rod, but in less than four minutes he had caught a sea fish as long as his arm.

If you told this to people within the regional channel, no one would believe you.

The reason for this is that the Fisherman's Boat's skill greatly increased Ye Fan's chances of catching fish, making him extremely efficient!

This makes things much easier. You just need to bait the hook and wait for the fish to bite. Then, collect 10 units of fish meat and recruit fishing assistants!

After making this plan in his mind, Ye Fan began to quietly cast his line. After about four minutes, he felt a noticeable pull on the fishing rod, as if the Fisherman's Hook's skill had been verified. A message notification popped up in front of him.

[This fishing trip was boosted by the Fisherman's Buff, resulting in a better catch!]

As soon as Ye Fan finished reading the message, he subconsciously pulled up his fishing rod. Unlike the last time he caught a fish, this one was a bit heavy. When he pulled it up, he realized that he had caught a sea fish that was even fatter than before!

This sea fish, just by being processed, can bring him 18 units of fresh fish meat!

Now, Ye Fan had enough fish meat to recruit the 10 units needed to hire a fishing assistant. Looking at the two sea fish on the deck, Ye Fan did not hesitate to recruit the fishing guy!

Ye Fan immediately chose to recruit a fisherman. As he conveyed his thoughts, 10 units of fish meat disappeared from the deck and in its place appeared a dark-skinned old man wearing weathered fisherman's clothes, holding a fishing rod, standing quietly by the railing.
