Chapter 915: 971, Sun Secret Realm (IX) Flaming Fin Fish
After a brief meeting, the Blue Star players immediately sprang into action.
The current time inside the secret realm was roughly one o’clock in the afternoon, and the sun was beating down.
If they started moving now, they could fish in the lake by the afternoon, speeding up their progress significantly.
They also agreed to meet at the rented base at 8 p.m. to discuss the next steps of their plan.
After leaving the base, Mr. Meng, Mr. Li, with a map in hand, lead three foreign server players to the northern woods to hunt;
Su Yu and the remaining ten players went to the pier, renting fishing boats and buying fishing gear and hiring fishermen with the money from selling a First Order Warcraft.
This First Order Warcraft truly did Su Yu and the others a huge favor.
It was because of it that they had over two thousand shell currency, saving them from having to work part-time and allowing them to rent fishing boats by the lake early on.
Otherwise, if they had to accumulate wealth by working, they definitely wouldn’t have had the hope of fishing in the lake today.
Indeed, thanks should be given to Jenny, and also to that First Order brown snow beast!
…
Renting the boats went very smoothly.
With no other players competing, the Blue Star players easily rented nine medium-sized fishing boats and recruited enough fishermen, equiping all the necessary fishing gear.
During the boat renting process, Su Yu did not forget to communicate with the captain here, Fanes.
“Brother Fanes, I want to ask, how much fish can one of these medium-sized boats catch in a day?”
Captain Fanes, very pleased with Su Yu, a generous patron, replied after hearing the question:
“It’s hard to say, as fishing is all about luck. Sometimes, encountering a school of fish can yield a harvest of over a thousand kilograms!
Other times, you might come back with empty nets at the end of the day, only catching a few dozen pounds of small fish and shrimp.
Even worse, if you encounter the fire-attribute Flaming Fin Fish, that’s really a total loss! It’s enough to make one want to cry without tears.”
Su Yu’s eyes flickered, “Then on average, how much fish can be caught in a day?”
“On average, about 500 kilograms, I’d say,” Captain Fanes answered thoughtfully.
“500 kilograms,” Shepherd in the Clouds began calculating, “We have nine boats, 500 kilograms per boat, which makes 4500 kilograms a day. We need a total of 14000 kilograms, meaning we can complete the task in three days.”
Zhong Feng chimed in, “It might not take that long. On the last day, if Mr. Meng and his team stop hunting and join us in fishing, we probably could speed up the process. Maybe it will take only two and a half days.”
Su Yu nodded and looked at Captain Fanes, “Then we’ll rent the fishing boats for three days, and I’ll pay the full amount now.”
The rental fee for nine medium-sized fishing boats for three days was 1890 shell currency, which was just enough for Su Yu and his team.
After giving that portion of money to Captain Fanes, they were temporarily unable to pay the fishermen’s wages, and needed the funds from the prey Mr. Meng’s team sold to cover the payment.
Su Yu had considered renting the nine boats day by day, which would make the capital flow more fluid. In case Mr. Meng had no gains this afternoon, they wouldn’t need to be chased by the fishermen for debts.

But considering that there were no other players competing at the moment, they could rent nine medium-sized fishing boats at a relatively low price.
In a while, when more adventurers start coming, they will have to bid against other adventurers to rent the fishing boats, and the price could skyrocket!
Considering this, Su Yu made up his mind to spend all their savings and rent for three days in one go.
He could only hope that Mr. Meng’s team would be efficient in the afternoon! Otherwise, the fishermen wouldn’t be getting paid.
Captain Fanes didn’t mind this arrangement, unaware of the other adventurers’ situation, he was more than happy for Su Yu’s willingness to rent for three days!
Taking the big bag of shell currency passed over by Zhong Feng, he grinned until his eyes became slits, “Follow me, gentlemen, I’ll throw in a few extra quality fishing nets and some diving suits for you…”
…
…
About an hour later, 9 medium-sized fishing boats set out of port smoothly, heading in 9 different directions.
Each medium-sized fishing boat was equipped with 5 experienced fishermen, complete with fishing tools and bait.
One Blue Star player was stationed on each medium-sized fishing boat.
None of them knew how to fish, so how much they would catch depended solely on the skills of the fishermen on board.
At most, the players were there to prevent the fishermen from slacking off and occasionally help with some of the heavy work.
The medium-sized fishing boat where Su Yu was aboard went to an area frequented by schools of fish and cast a large fishing net, which was tied with bait.
There wasn’t much to say about the fishing process.
At six o’clock in the afternoon, the fishermen, with Su Yu’s assistance, pulled the fishing net back in together.
The net was filled to the brim with a large bunch of fish, but unlike those from Blue Star, these fish were colorful: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple—practically every color was represented.
One fisherman said to Su Yu excitedly, “Young man, we’ve had a bountiful catch this time! In just four hours, there must be at least 500 kilograms of fish!”
“Really? That’s great!” a smile appeared on Su Yu’s face.
According to the boat captain Fanes, a normal medium-sized fishing boat would cast its net twice a day, half a day each time.
Usually, a single cast would yield around 300 kilograms of fish.
This time they got more than 500 kilograms in one cast, which could definitely be called a rich harvest!
At this moment, Su Yu noticed something strange and asked, “Uncle, why are these fish so colorful?”
To avoid suspicion, he added, “I come from the inland, I’ve hardly ever eaten fish from young to old, so I’m not very familiar with these.”
The fishermen did not suspect Su Yu.
One fisherman chuckled and said, “The reason the fish in the lake are colorful is that they are mostly Elemental Fish!”
“Elemental Fish?”
“That’s right,” the old fisherman said, pointing to the fish net that was about to reach the boat’s side: “Look, blue ones make up the majority, they are fish that are friendly with the water element; yellow and brown are friendly with the earth element; green are friendly with grass or poison elements… However, the affinity is just slight, and they’re basically harmless.”
“Oh, I see,” nodded Su Yu.
The old fisherman started to open up, laughing as he said, “Haha, if we’re talking about the most dangerous fish in the lake, it has to be the fire-affiliated ‘Flaming Fin Fish.’ This fish has a fiery red surface… Wait a minute, oh no, this is bad!”
The old fisherman’s face turned pale, his previously rosy cheeks suddenly as white as a sheet.
“What’s wrong?” Su Yu asked quickly.
“My goodness, it’s a Flaming Fin Fish!” the old fisherman pointed to the center of the fishing net: “There’s a Flaming Fin Fish there! This kind of fish has at least First Order strength and can spit fire. If it burns through the net, we’ll lose today’s entire catch!”
Upon hearing this, Su Yu’s heart tensed.
He quickly grabbed a fish spear lying next to him, his expression serious: “Where is it?”
Another fisherman shouted, “Right in the middle of the school, the fiery red one! It’s only because it’s squeezed in the center of the school that it hasn’t had a chance to breathe fire and burn the net.”
Meanwhile, Su Yu also spotted the bright fiery red color in the middle of the fishing net.
He quickly put on a tight wetsuit and yelled to the fishermen, “Hold on tight to the fishing net, I’ll go take care of that fish!”
