Chapter 918: 974, Sunday Secret Realm (Twelve) 3 Flaming Fin Fish
A few minutes later, Frost Red Tea and Avril’s fishing boat successfully docked at the pier.
As soon as they docked, both of them jumped directly onto the pier and came before Su Yu.
Frost Red Tea’s expression was very calm, as usual;
However, Avril’s complexion was extremely pale, and her eyes dodged about, not daring to look directly at Su Yu; it was clear that her trip had not been very smooth.
“How did the two of you fare?” Su Yu asked.
Frost Red Tea was the first to reply, “We’ve hauled in about 400 kilograms, and we also caught a very special Flaming Fin Fish. The fishermen said it should fetch quite a sum of money.”
No sooner had Frost Red Tea finished speaking than from his fishing boat, five fishermen worked together to lift a Flaming Fin Fish, about 80 centimeters long, above their heads and shouted excitedly at the dock, “Everyone, look! Look what we’ve caught—it’s a Flaming Fin Fish!”
Zhong Feng: “…”
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated: “…”
Su Yu: “…”
The people on the dock: “…”
Hadn’t they just witnessed this scene a moment ago?
Seeing everyone’s muted reaction (actually, they were shocked and had not yet responded), the five fishermen looked puzzled, “Did you not hear us? We caught a Flaming Fin Fish! The last catch was 20 years ago!”
“Cough cough.” At this point, the captain of the boat, Fanes, coughed twice to smooth things over, “Actually, it wasn’t 20 years ago, but 20 minutes ago.
Fellow villagers, we’ve really opened our eyes today! Our Sun Village has caught two Flaming Fin Fish in one day!”
“My God! It’s really the second Flaming Fin Fish!”
“This is truly a historic moment!”
“Normally, we wouldn’t hear about Flaming Fin Fish for a year or even longer, yet today, we’ve caught two!”
“It’s simply unbelievable!”
…
The Blue Man folks were chirping excitedly in discussion, something they had never seen in their lifetimes!
But Su Yu noticed that right when the five fishermen lifted the Flaming Fin Fish high into the air, Avril’s body trembled slightly, and her face became even paler while her lips also quivered a bit.
Avril was previously a female college student from the United Kingdom, with a rather plain appearance, wearing glasses thicker than the bottom of beer bottles, whose hobby was playing video games, and she didn’t even have a single close friend.
Under the arrangement of fate (having drawn an epic talent plus her own decent gaming talent), she became the strongest player in the United Kingdom.
Yet her personality remained the same as before. Among Su Yu’s group, she was still somewhat of an invisible presence.
Noticing Avril’s expression, Su Yu gently patted her shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong, Avril? Did you encounter a sea monster in the lake?”
“It’s not a sea monster, Boss Ke.” Avril bowed her head deeply, not daring to look at anyone.
She murmured in a low voice, “I’m sorry, everyone. When we were hauling in the nets, I also encountered a Flaming Fin Fish like that, but before I could take action, it burned through the net and escaped.
This time we only brought back a dozen or so kilograms of fish, holding the rest of you back.”
“What? You also encountered a Flaming Fin Fish?!” Su Yu and the others were taken aback.
Another Flaming Fin Fish!
The third Flaming Fin Fish!
Wasn’t it said that this kind of fish only appeared once every year or two? How did they encounter three on their first fishing trip?

This was too strange, wasn’t it?
“Yuan Fang, what do you make of this?” Su Yu looked at Zhong Feng beside him.
“My lord, I believe there must be something fishy about this.” Zhong Feng cooperated and frowned, “It’s said that the Flaming Fin Fish appears only once every couple of years, and this should not be wrong, according to the fishermen.
“If our fishing boat encountered just one, we could say it was luck;
if we encountered two, we could barely explain it as an event with a very low probability;
but encountering three… I can only say it’s very likely there is an issue with the secret realm, perhaps the secret realm has increased the spawning rate of Flaming Fin Fish, increasing our difficulty.”
“Hmm, that makes sense,” Su Yu nodded.
He looked at the other Blue Star players around and said, “But this is not the place to discuss this matter.
Let’s send the fish to the altar for now, and we’ll discuss this matter in detail after we get back.”
“All right,” everyone responded in turn.
…
For the rest of the time, Su Yu and the others hired porters to use small carts to transport all the fish caught that day, including the two Flaming Fin Fish, to the altar.
There’s not much to say about the sacrificial process.
Following the directions given by the main mother, they arrived at a huge white altar to the north of the village.
Su Yu and his group piled the fish onto the altar, and an orange light flashed, causing all the fish to vanish as if taken to another place by the so-called “God.”
After the mountain of fish disappeared, only a pile of peculiarly shaped shell coins were left on the altar.
These shell coins were not the same as those used in the village.
The ones used in the village were really made of shells and were generally white.
However, the shell coins obtained from the sacrifice were fiery red, identical in color to the Flaming Fin Fish.
Su Yu stepped forward and collected all the shell coins, then after counting them he said to everyone, “Folks, we have a total of 2,245 shell coins, to distinguish them from the village’s currency, let’s call them ‘Red Shell Coins’ based on their color.”
“Good,” everyone agreed.
“The Great Mathematician” Shepherd in the Clouds began to calculate again, “2,245 Red Shell Coins, on average, equates to about 250 kilograms of catch per fishing boat, which basically matches what the Captain Fanes said.”
Originally, Captain Fanes had said that on average, each fishing boat could catch about 500 kilograms of fish with two hauls per day.
Now at 250 kilograms for half a day, it was very close to his estimate.
“No… you can’t calculate it like that,” said Avril with a flush on her face. “I’ve held everyone back, and my catch is almost nothing, so it should be calculated based on eight boats.”
Mr. Meng tried to mediate, “Calculating based on eight boats isn’t quite right either, considering we also caught two Flaming Fin Fish, which are worth ten times the Red Shell Coins! So, Captain Fanes’s statement still seems reliable when you factor that in.”
Su Yu said, “Enough, let’s head back, as long as the numbers are roughly correct. Everyone is tired after a busy afternoon, so after we finish the meeting and eat, let’s rest early.”
“Okay!”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, everyone felt varying degrees of fatigue.
They were all players above Sixth Order, usually with nearly infinite energy, and didn’t need to sleep, remaining energetic even after 24 hours of monster grinding.
But now, the bodies they controlled were only at the puny level of one or two, and after a busy afternoon, they indeed felt very tired, especially Mr. Meng and his five companions.
…
Just as everyone was about to return to their base, a voice from Frost Red Tea suddenly came from behind, “Eh? What’s this?”
Frost Red Tea had a peculiar habit of meticulously investigating every nook and cranny of any new place he visited.
For example, one of the first things he did upon entering the secret realm was to wander through every street and alley of the entire village and draw a detailed map based on his own understanding of directions.
He certainly wouldn’t miss out on this white altar, which could be described as the “core structure of the secret realm.”
Upon arrival, he had circled the altar several times.
Finally, he found something strange at the back of the altar.
