Chapter 49 A Big Guy Has Arrived with God-Level Bait

"Everyone, let's start fishing! Whoever catches the biggest one will get the reward."

In the center of the island is a huge lake, divided in two by the island and a raised midline. The half of the lake that Chen Dixin and his group arrived at was noticeably deeper than the other side.

A pale-faced girl sat lazily on a bench by the lake. She was short and unlike the other pale-faced people who were stiff and dull. When she spoke, her eyes were fixed on the swaying float.

"Really fishing?" Many players who didn't know each other had already formed small groups to fish together. Fishing was a relaxed activity for everyone, like a picnic.

Apart from the two of them, it seemed that everyone on the island was a fisherman. Shen Dixin could smell a fishy smell from afar. After her physical fitness improved, her basic senses also became more acute.

Just then, a passerby glanced at Chen Dixin curiously and casually remarked, "Girl, you're fishing with such a small bucket? That's unlucky."

"I was just about to go back." Shen Dixin smiled in a friendly manner. The bucket she was carrying contained cinnabar. The cinnabar had said it wanted to test whether its aura was effective on land creatures, so it had followed her out.

There was water available this time, but I don't know if cinnabar can stay in fresh water for a long time.

Upon hearing this, it poked its head out and stared at the man.

Chen Dixin walked straight to the pale-faced man and asked, "Hello, may I go back to the boat to get some fishing bait?"

The pale-faced man was initially too lazy to pay attention to her and was about to send her away when he took one look and was immediately filled with respect.

She quickly stood up, took off her tattered straw hat, and performed a strange and comical greeting, saying repeatedly, "Oh dear, my apologies! So you're [Game Terminator]! You can call me Azure. May I ask which game you play? Let's add each other as friends! We can chat more in the future!"

[Congratulations to the player for successfully unlocking the character [Azure]'s affinity bar.]

[Azure admires you. (Affection +50, current affection level 50)]

Shen Dixin realized that the title she got from the Happy Easter Egg must have played a role, and naturally replied, "Luck, luck. Adding friends is fine, but my equipment is on the ship. Can I go get it?"

At the same time, I couldn't help but think of the white-faced man's gaze. Could it be that in their eyes, the player's title was something to be proud of?

Wouldn't that mean she has more titles than everyone else? Shen Dixin burst out laughing.

"Of course, of course! Please remember to add me when you get back. My game nickname is... is..."

A look of confusion crossed the girl's face, and she froze in place. Now she looked just like her dull peers.

Chen Dixin turned around immediately. Normally, once players enter the game area, they are not allowed to leave. With the white-faced man's personal permission, no system warning popped up even after walking to the beach.

Many players, seeing this, also went over to the pale-faced girl and told her they were leaving.

She wasn't so polite to ordinary players. She would sit on a bench and ignore anyone who asked her questions. Anyone who dared to get too close would be thrown five meters away.

Shen Dixin went back to get fish bait. She only brought ordinary fish bait, but this lake was no ordinary lake.

As soon as she saw this iconic lake, she remembered that in her past life, someone had caught a fish taller than a person standing upright in the lake, which was clearly divided into yin and yang. Eating it would give her an experience bonus!

As everyone knows, anglers love to show off the fish they catch and their fishing techniques. When other anglers ask them for tips on bait, they continue to show off without reservation.

Fish that survive at sea have deviated from the normal range. While the fish may taste good, the quality of the bait is even more important. He added a lot of high-end ingredients to the bait to attract such a large fish.

Although his intention was to show off his wealth, he did not lie about the fact that the bait could be enhanced with high-grade ingredients.

It's just high-end ingredients, and she happens to have them!

Shen Dixin divided a small bottle of honey, mixed in some of the remaining purple-quality mushrooms, and generously added various blue-quality berries and plant leaves. She also got a small bucket like the ones used for holding cinnabar, crushed everything, added some water, and mixed it with ordinary fish bait.

After washing her hands with seawater, Shen Dixin was very satisfied with the small bucket of vomit-like paste she had stirred up, which had a strange aroma...

The bucket may not be large, but it can be used in many everyday situations.

Unfortunately, Shen Dixin didn't have the blueprints. Of course, she wasn't the only middleman for blueprints; she bought the small bucket from someone else.

Fortunately, under her guidance, prices across the channel were not high, so you could just buy what you needed without losing money. Shen Dixin bought twenty in one go.

Carrying the small bucket back to the island, Lu Mingang and Zhu Sha had already been fishing for quite a while.

Perhaps it was bad luck that they brought such a small bucket, but they didn't catch a single fish, while other players had already caught four or five.

Zhu Sha waved her tentacles and complained to Chen Dixin that the humans over there wouldn't let her go into the water!

Following the gaze, I saw the pale-faced woman who had returned to normal. Her eyes still held fervor and reverence, but she didn't mention adding me as a friend again.

The pale-faced man watched intently as Shen Dixin placed the cinnabar into the water, his eyelids not even twitching, before continuing to fish.

"Don't rush to catch fish. First, explore the terrain and layout of this place. Don't swim too far. If you feel uncomfortable in the freshwater, get ashore as soon as possible."

Shen Dixin said to Zhu Sha, "The little guy is a bit uninterested. He thought he would see land creatures after getting ashore, but he didn't expect to still be in the water."

"I'll make you something delicious when I get back!"

Wow! The cinnabar swam several meters away in an instant.

Then, Shen Dixing placed the bucket of special bait between the two of them, winked at him, and said, "Try it, it's an exclusive recipe! I guarantee you'll catch three fish in ten minutes."

The island was full of players fishing in groups, and the two of them were inconspicuous when they were together. However, Shen Dixin's slightly arrogant remarks made the player next to her glance at her.

Hey, isn't that the girl with the little bucket? She's been sitting here the whole time! I could see it all clearly. That young man didn't bring any fish, but she said the little bucket was unlucky, so she carried two!

Ignoring the advice of those who came before me will only lead to regret!

Then he watched in disbelief as the two men caught fish one after another, rubbing his eyes and looking down with his fishing partner next to him, their jaws practically dropping to the floor.

All the players around them noticed them, and they were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment!

[Collected 1481g of mackerel, reward 20 experience points.]

[Collected 678g of trout, reward 9 experience points.]

This place is incredibly convenient for grinding experience!

Shen Dixin regretted that she had only prepared such a small amount of bait. It had already visibly created a large pit, and at this rate, it wouldn't last long. Going back to prepare more bait would waste time, and she wanted to fish on the island until dark!

While she was serving the fish, she chatted with Lu Mingang, and her unintentional Versailles-style remarks dealt a heavy blow to the player next to her.

"Why are all these fish so small?"

Player 1: No, it's three or four pounds, sis!

"Why hasn't Zhu Sha returned yet? Is there really a big fish in the lake?"

Player 2: You've already caught a whole net full of big fish, how much bigger do you want?

Lu Mingang agreed, then asked, "Dixin, did you bring any other nets? This one is almost full."

Chen Dixin handed out another fishing net as a temporary fish basket.

Suddenly, the grip tightened, and the fishing rod almost slipped from his hand! Chen Dixin straightened up; a big one was coming!
