After being convinced by Bu Yi and Zheng Ziliang, Qiu Yuan finally gave up the idea of using dynamite for fishing. After learning the fishing technique, she sat at the side and waited patiently.

For Life Skills like archeology and fishing, one could change profession to improve their skills and boost the outcome.

At the Citys Moat, many players were discussing why everyone in Savage Blade was out to fish. Some rumors even said that they were too strong because they had caught a River God before.

Everyone started to imagine the River God, asking them which weapon they had lost, a Sub-Legendary one, or a Legendary one. When players replied that none of the weapons belonged to them, God would reward them generously for their honesty.

Soon, there were hundreds of players gathered around the Citys Moat, most were there to look at the pros gathered around.

The five of them sat around and waited for the fish to be caught. When the proficiency of Fishing was below 50, it would be challenging for them to catch any fish. If they waited until the party night, they would spend a long time in the Eye of the Vortex.

Usually, to raise proficiency from 0 to 50, one needed 8 hours. Unless a miracle happened. To raise to Middle-Grade, Proficiency Points needed to reach 3,000. That was a considerable amount of time!

I caught one!

Lin Jie saw his rod bend and quickly pulled it out of water. It was a black plastic bag full of rubbish.

You got a [Broken Trash], proficiency raise by 0.

Lin Jie.

That was not entirely unexpected, for every 20 rubbish he fished, he could raise his proficiency by 1 point. Baili Changcheng and Zheng Ziliang caught some rubbish too later on.

As for Bu Yi, she had caught lots of fish. About every 10 seconds, a lively fish would be pulled out of the water.

Qiu Yuan looked at Bu Yi in admiration. Wowww, when did you learn how to fish?

Bu Yi smiled and said, Every time, when you guys are late, I would just go fishing. And when Im bored with farming, I would fish too.

Qiu Yuan scratched her head in embarrassment. I see, I see Then, how many points do you have now? 500? I didnt make you wait that long, right?

Erm Middle-Grade said Bu Yi cautiously.

Qiu Yuan was about to cry. Was she that not punctual? That must be a lie! She looked at Netherblue, who just caught a fish with golden scales. That was a typical middle-grade fish that could boost stats temporarily.

Ahhhh! Why cant I get anything! Must be the rod!

Lin Jie was speechless!

Baili Changcheng waved his rod and said calmly, Fishing needs a patient heart, you must imagine you and the river

Qiu Yuan threw bait into the river again and said, Who said patience is a must!?

Suddenly, her rod caught something!

She caught a fish! Qiu Yuan laughed and tried to pull the fish up. However, she was the one being pulled into the river. Bu Yi reacted fast and caught Qiu Yuan on the leg.

The fishing rod shook violently. Both of them were Priests and had low Strength. Lin Jie, Baili, and Zheng Ziliang stood at the side, not knowing if they should help.

Bu Yi shouted, Lin Jie! Help!

Fine! Lin Jie used Death Rage and Blood Power, his strength grew and pulled Bu Yis body, she did not move.

What? What is that thing underwater that is so strong? Lin Jie was shocked and yelled at the others, Come help!

Baili Changcheng nodded and used an elemental armor and pulled on Lin Jie. Zheng Ziliang summoned the Mechanical Gargoyle and hooked on them, dragging them backward.

UP!

After much struggle, the creature beneath the water finally appeared. It was a Naga with 6 arms!

A Six-armed Naga was considered as a Boss! How could a Gold Boss appear here in the Citys Moat?

When the Naga was pulled up, the onlookers were shocked and ready for battle. Lin Jie stopped them and tried to talk to the Naga.

[Naga Shrine Guardian] (Gold Boss)

Level 100

Health Points: ???

Attack Power: ???

Defense: ???

Note: The Nage Shrine Guardian has powerful control over water element and close combat ability, he will drive any intruders away.

Level 100 Gold Boss! Lin Jie was shocked. Even if they asked the Paladin NPCs to come and help, it would take a long time to fight the Naga away. They had no idea why the Naga was there and if killing it would bring more problems in the future. The entire City of Light could be destroyed, along with his Provisions shop and Auction House.

Do not go near the Naga Shrine! The guardian was still in a daze.

Nobody move! Lin Jie yelled. Codename Lone Wolf was a famous name, and all the players waited to see what happened next.

Hello, Naga. This is City of Light, how did you get here? Lin Jie asked the Naga in his native language.

Naga was confused and scratched his head with six hands. He said, City of Light? Am I on the mainland? There were a lot of whirlpools around the sea shrine, and I was ordered to check them, so I came here. Human, since you know the language of Naga, you are our friend. If you send me back, you will be rewarded by the Naga Shrine!

I see! Lin Jie instantly figured out what happened. The place of the fishing competition was Eye of the Vortex, the birthplace and gathering place of countless seawater monsters in the legend. In order to bring in enough rare fish, the system created whirlpools around the ocean to send fish in. This would naturally accidentally send into some other creatures, but powerful creatures would be abandoned and thrown back into the sea randomly. As for some monsters with ordinary strength, they would also be sent into Eye of the Vortex as trial monsters.

This Naga was obviously the former!

It would be fixed after the party night.

Ding~

Do you accept the mission [Escort Naga]?

Mission Description:: In two days, send the Naga back to Naga Shrine.

Mission reward: EXP, Marine Currency, 200 Naga Shrine Reputation.

There were some rewards with no effort!

Lin Jie agreed and said, Sure, Nagas are my friends, tomorrow night, I will ask a Space Magician to send you back. Please stay in the Citys Moat for now.

Space Magician? A Grand Mage? Thank you! Naga Guardian was very pure and praised Lin Jies kindness.

Ding~

Naga Shrines favorability raised by 100.

Lin Jies eyes lit up. The mission hadnt even begun, and he was rewarded already? That was way too easy! Gaining favorability from the Poseidon Shrine was the hardest. Doing a month of missions could barely raise it by 100 points. Now, he gained it by a few words!

However, it was just temporary. If Lin Jie did not complete the mission, twice the amount would be deducted!

You can go back to the water first and wait for me to get the Space Mage, said Lin Jie. The Naga disappeared.

Everyone was shocked.

Lin Jie managed to talk to a Boss and asked it to back off? That was so amazing!

Qiu Yuan was shocked and asked, What happened?

Lin Jie smiled. Nothing much, this cute boy got lost on the way and wanted me to send him home. I said okay, and he left.

Cute? Bu Yi recalled the Nagas appearance and started to doubt if Lin Jie was under a curse of something.

Cmon, let the fishing continue. Lin Jie smiled. He was so happy about the mission that he did not need to make any effort.

He caught a fish!

When he pulled the fish up, he was shocked. It was a high-grade fish! This fish was knocked out physically and hooked to his hook! That must be the Nagas doing

This was a simple way to repay Lin Jie

In the next half an hour, Lin Jie kept catching a high-grade fish per minute. All of them were knocked out by the Naga. Soon, the entire bucket was full of fishes

Qiu Yuan stared at Lin Jie with a weird look. Did he use his smelly socks to make the fish pass out?
