Chapter 310: 310

With the Level 100 Naga Gold Boss’ help, Lin Jie’s proficiency rose rapidly and reached 50 points in the blink of an eye . He could finally fish out some fish instead of trash .

Qiu Yuan, on the other hand, didn’t have such good luck . She was impatient at the core, so whenever there was any vibration on the rod after she threw it for less than 10 seconds, she would scream and start pulling . In the end, she couldn’t even fish up trash .

“This system is a scam! It made the fishing seem as though it’s real!” Qiu Yuan ended up with an empty rod once again . She threw the rod down in rage and pouted . “Since it’s so realistic, why can’t we use explosives?”

Lin Jie started sweating . The game did not have control over explosives, so if they really could be used for fishing, wouldn’t the Engineering players all become aquatic tycoons?

As time passed, night had fallen in The New Age .

“My proficiency is sufficient . ” Zheng Ziliang kept his rod, heaving a sigh of relief .

“Mine as well . ” Baili Changcheng had a faint smile and glanced at Qiu Yuan resignedly while advising, “Fishing requires patience, you are too impatient, uh…”

Qiu Yuan did not wait for him to finish his sentence before glaring with her large eyes . Fuming, she forced a large amount of bait to the poor hook and threw it into the water as though it was a stone, resulting in a huge splash .

It would be impossible for this to get any fish!

“Eh, eh, there are some fish on the hook!” exclaimed Qiu Yuan . Indeed, the buoy had suddenly sunk . Qiu Yuan grabbed on the bottom half of the rod that was above the water level and pulled back with great strength . A huge fish ball-like object that was the size of 4 to 5 heads were pulled up and fell on the ground .

Everyone was shocked, what on earth was that?

Lin Jie had an odd look on his face as he sliced the “fishbowl” to reveal countless middle-grade fish tightly stuffed inside . After counting, there were actually 50+ fish . The system prompt messages kept ringing in Qiu Yuan’s ears as her proficiency rose rapidly to 50 points .

“Yay!”

Looking at the excited Qiu Yuan, Lin Jie shook his head resignedly . She had obviously not fished up this bulk of fish . Naga Shrine’s guard must have probably had enough of this girl’s thickness . Hence, he had stuffed the bulk of fish to her fishing rod to help her, as well as doing it for Lin Jie .

“Congratulations, congratulation . Never knew that our Ms . Qiu was indeed astonishingly good . ” Lin Jie joked . As the Fishing Festival would commence, he searched for some materials on the forum, in case something changed in this life .

The Fishing Festival commencement notice was among the top pinned posts .

Other than Living Jobs’ players that liked this event, Battling Jobs’ players couldn’t stand its temptation either . Just by entering the Fishing Festival map, there would be an hourly chance to win a large gift bag that included EXP, coins, equipment, and other great items like treasure maps! This was more efficient and safer than farming monsters in the wild, so why not?

Of course, some were elated, whereas some were depressed as it was all up to character that decided what items you could get out of the gift bag!

The prizes for Fishing Festival were announced: First place, an Epic fishing rod, and an Epic Giant Gift Bag .

Second Place, a Dark Gold fishing rod and a Dark Gold Giant Gift Bag .

Third Place, a Gold fishing rod and a Gold Giant Gift Bag .

The rankings further down would also be able to receive Rare fishing rods and additional gift bags . However, this arrangement still received the spats and scoldings from many players that requested for the prizes to be changed to Battling Jobs’ exclusive weapons . To that, Lin Jie smiled coldly and did not give any comments .

‘You guys will truly feel the competition’s charm after participating!’

The annual The New Age’s Fishing Festival Night has finally begun!

—”System Announcement: Dear players! Amidst the peak of leveling up and battles, do you feel a sense of fatigue? Beneath the beautiful moonlight, The New Age’s Vortex Region is open! Let the annual Fishing Festival begin!”

—”Do you wish to enter the Mystery Vortex?”

Everyone received the prompt message .

“Go! Upon entering, run to the island borders instantly and look for the wooden boats,” shouted Lin Jie and entered right after!

Vortex!

The Vortex was not as tempestuous as people inferred from its name . Instead, it was peaceful and beautiful, just like Maldives’ paradise . Hundreds of islands laid on the sea surface and at the borders were many intricate wooden boats .

Flashes shone, and players were randomly teleported to each island .

“This is the Vortex? One of the 3 Legendary Secret Regions? It doesn’t seem to be anything special . ”

“Wth, this fish jumped onto land… Rare fish! It’s a Rare fish!”

After a few seconds of consecutive teleportation flashes, there stood tens of thousands of players in the islands . Everyone was sizing up the Vortex, one of the 3 Legendary Secret Regions, with interest .

Lin Jie identified his location upon teleportation . His landing area was pretty good as it was near the island’s border . He didn’t bother admiring the scenery of the Vortex . In his previous life, he had been there 7 times and had already lost all interest in this place . He rushed to the border as the priority now was to fight for points .

Charge!

Enrage! Hunter’s Forward Charge! Wild Charge, Holy Light Winged Armor!

Lin Jie was fully immersed in the zone as his speed rose and fought for a wooden boat at the island’s border and ventured into the sea . Players nearer to him saw what he was doing, and the intelligent ones finally realized! An island region could fit up to tens of thousands of people, but there were only 1,000 spawned boats, and each boat could only fit up to 5 people . In other words, at least 50% of the players would be left on the islands . The official information, which had been posted before the event, hinted that there were better rewards out in the sea…

Currently, as the teleportation locations into the Vortex were completely randomized, Lin Jie couldn’t provide any help for his teammates . He rode on the wooden boat alone as he ventured out . The fish that spawned near the islands were of the lowest grade! There was a vast number of breeds of fish in The New Age . Other than countless the Rare fish, just the Middle-Grade and High-Grade already amounted to 2,000+ breeds, and those breeds could all be found in the Vortex! Furthermore, there were up to 100 breeds of region-specific fish here .

—”System Announcement: Player “Feixiang De Xiang” has opened a Fishing Festival Gift Bag, and his Strength attribute rose by 1 point!”

—”System Announcement: Player “DiDiaoDiaoDai” has opened a Fishing Festival Gift Bag, and he obtained a treasure map!”

“So fast!” Lin Jie was mildly surprised .

The Fishing Festival was one of the most popular events in The New Age, so the prizes would definitely be good! Players would get a Fishing Festival Gift Bag hourly even if they just stood and did nothing . Inside the gift bags were EXP, coins, skills, maps, and even stat points! Of course, the increase in stat points was not infinite, each player was allowed to rise up to “Level/10” points . For example, Lin Jie was currently at level 30+, he could only increase each attribute by 3 .

There was only a small chance of getting a gift bag by fishing .

‘The system announcement is being updated so frequently, everyone will slowly see the real value in the event, I have to hurry up!’ Lin Jie glanced back to see countless players fighting for the wooden boats to venture into the sea .

If he had been delayed by a few minutes, he would have to fight with that bunch of people .

Lin Jie took out the fishing rod and baits and moved the boat further up front . There may be a large variety of fish in the Vortex, and every round of fishing would be successful . However, in order to obtain the qualifications to enter the final round and even to get the Grand Prize, it still required some techniques .

Although Lin Jie wasn’t a professional Living job gamer in his previous life, as he had participated in every year’s Fishing Festival, he had some tips and tricks as well .

“The first target, near the coordinates 141254 . 365874 . 695412, there is a school of Flounders . ” Lin Jie had memorized countless locations of Superior fish in his brain . Then, getting the rough coordinates from the map, he planned the most suitable route in an effort to get the highest points in the shortest amount of time!

As the boat moved along, there was a mass of red light, as hundreds of flounders gathered together and danced .

‘This must be the school!’

Fishing directly above the school of fish increased the success rate by 50%! However, the focal point was that there would definitely be a Superior fish among a school . If a school of Middle fish gathered together, there would be a Superior fish . If a school of Superior fish gathered together, there would be a Rare fish!

Point Accumulation System of the Fishing Festival: Middle-Grade fish, 5 points per fish . Superior-Grade fish, 10 points per fish! Rare-Grade fish would earn up from 20 to 1,000 points based on the breed!

Currently, the points rankings were as followed:

First Place, WanBuChuanYang, 45 points!

Second Place, Bu Yi, 45 points!

Third Place, Baili Mei Niang, 40 points!

Fourth Place, Black Thursday, 35 points!

Lin Jie pulled out his fishing rod as he recalled, and a ruby-like flounder was fished!

[Royal Flounder]: Rare Fish . Upon consumption, this can increase Flames Immunity by 3 points .

Concurrently, his points rose to 50!

Instantly clinching the first place!

This was the value of Rare fish . Fishing 10 Superior ones would not bring as many points as 1 Rare fish . With 7 years of accumulated experience and tips from various players in his previous life, Lin Jie would almost always be able to target the head of the pack and fish . Compared to other players, who were just fishing aimlessly and violently, the difference in efficiency was stark . Lin Jie also threw his rod carelessly without any bait so that he would not waste his time and affect the travel speed .

In this event, as long as one was fishing, even without any bait, there was a chance to get a Fishing Festival Gift Bag . This was the welfare given to the players by the system! The lucky ones would be able to fish one up in minutes, while the unlucky ones, such as the gloomy Lin Jie, couldn’t get any . Hence, he was still empty-handed .

Fortunately, the system gave out a gift bag hourly .

‘Oh well, the gift bag doesn’t really have good stuff anyways, at most tens of thousands EXP, a dozen of silver coins, and Silver treasure maps . They aren’t good enough . ’ Lin Jie was slightly salty as he thought . He knew the locations of many fish schools and targeted the Rare fish, so his points rose rapidly, and he reached First Place .

Every fish he caught was equivalent to 5 or 10 of what the others caught!

Lin Jie was heading to the next Superior fish’s locations—Deep Sea Ribbonfish, this was an excellent breed amongst the Superior fish and could lead up to a 200 point increase .

Suddenly, a fan-like shadow appeared beneath the waters, and the large school of Deep Sea Ribbonfish vanished completely .

Lin Jie’s pupils constricted as he exclaimed, “Demon Shark! UltrRare fish!”
