As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up -

Chapter 580: Chapter 357: Sea Storm
The season in the Mozambique Channel was just perfect for autumn, having come all the way from Southeast Asia Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo felt unbearably hot, and now they were finally experiencing some cooler sensations.
Of course, that was only during the early morning and evening, as the noon was still blazing hot.
There it was, the Hei Yao was freely drifting on the sea with the waves, while Jiang Luoluo was on the deck, busy with a charcoal grill that Chu Mingcheng had made during his free time.
The structure of this charcoal grill was quite simple, with a metal charcoal basin at the bottom and four metal legs to prevent it from scorching the deck.
On either side of the basin were crossed metal rods, which obviously were mainly used for roasting suckling pigs and Pearl Chickens.
Of course, roasting a leg of lamb wouldn’t be a problem either.
At this moment, Jiang Luoluo had already ignited the charcoal and started to slowly roast the suckling pig that was marinated at noon.
As for Chu Mingcheng, he was by the side of the ship with a fishing rod and a small stool, getting ready to fish.
The Mozambique Channel was very rich in marine resources, either having great depths reaching two to three thousand meters.
Or most places were scattered with reefs and not very suitable for trawling, so the resources had been well preserved under no overfishing conditions.
Unknowingly, Chu Mingcheng’s sea god mode had already advanced to the fourth level.
With a beautiful wife busy preparing dinner beside him, and himself leisurely waiting for the fish to bite, this lifestyle was the ultimate dream of Fishing Man.
Just then, the fishing rod twitched.
His eyes lit up, this had to be either a lobster or a cuttlefish.
He raised his hand, lifted the rod, and after a short while of skillful reeling, a beautiful colored lobster was caught.
The lobster was small, weighing just about a pound.
But it was all pink, and Chu Mingcheng recognized its origin at a glance.
South African Rose Dragon, actually known scientifically as the Mozambique Red Dragon.
This lobster mainly came from the area around South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope, but since it was scientifically named the Mozambique Red Dragon, it indicated that it was also found in this part of the Channel.
"Wife, we’re having lobster for dinner!"
"Eh, did you catch a lobster?"
Jiang Luoluo put down the suckling pig she was roasting and joined him at his side.
Seeing the small pink lobster, she couldn’t help but tease, "Fishing Man has lost his touch today, who is this tiny thing for?"
"Of course, it’s for my darling wife!" At this moment, Chu Mingcheng wouldn’t go into the details that the South African Rose Dragon was naturally this size, that would be a man without EQ or sense of romance.
"Tsk, I’m not impressed!" Jiang Luoluo dismissed with her lips, but the smile in her eyes already showed that she was quite pleased with her husband’s words.
"Catch more, okay? I made a big bottle of garlic sauce, let’s have garlic lobster tonight."
"Is it all going to be so rich? How about some vegetables or fruits?"
"Of course, there’ll be some. Once the suckling pig is done, I’ll make a vegetable and fruit salad."
"Sure!" Chu Mingcheng nodded with no objections.
They were soon to arrive in South Africa, so there was no need to save on vegetables and fruits for the time being.
It was only during the long journey from South Africa to Antarctica that they would need to conserve a bit.
In the end, the garlic lobster Jiang Luoluo wanted didn’t happen and was replaced by a green crab that showed up on its own.
One green crab and one Rose Dragon, that was also alright.
A dinner, Chu Mingcheng ate quite contentedly.
Jiang Luoluo had now learned up to nine layers of his cooking skills, fully becoming a capable hand in the kitchen.
After dinner, they cleaned up together.
Jiang Luoluo went to take a shower, while Chu Mingcheng took two fishing rods, determined to catch a plateful of lobsters today.
But he had never dropped the anchor to fix the boat’s position; after dinner and cleaning up, he didn’t even know where the boat had drifted to.
Somewhat speechlessly, he slapped himself on the forehead, then ran into the cabin to check the fish finder.
He found that he was quite lucky, as the Hei Yao hadn’t drifted far off course.
However, the waters he was currently in were not suitable for lobster fishing, as the depth reached more than two hundred thirty meters.
Fortunately, there was plenty of fish activity at the bottom, so he simply went back to the deck to fish for deep sea fish.
At the moment, a large fish, one and a half meters long, was slowly swimming at the bottom.
It had a few extra fins on its body, but it swam very slowly.
Every time it passed by, the nearby fish rapidly fled, leaving it hardly able to enjoy a fresh meal.
But it was not a big deal, because it was not the only slow swimmer at the bottom.
After searching around for a while, a soft-bodied creature climbing on the rocks soon caught its attention, a deep-sea octopus.
Fresh meat was coming right to its doorstep.
It wagged its tail, turned its body, and the rippling water immediately made the nearby fish flee even further away.
The large fish began to swim towards the octopus, even though its speed was slow, it was still faster than the slowly crawling octopus.
The octopus also sensed the danger and was desperately looking for a cave to hide in.
Unfortunately, there were too few rocks in this area to form a hiding place.
By the time the large fish arrived, it opened its mouth, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth, and then ferociously bit towards the octopus.
In an instant, the whole head of the octopus was caught, and in response to the pain, it immediately released a jet of ink.
But now it was too late, the large fish just tore, chewed, and swallowed a few times, easily tearing its body apart.
After a while, the messy scene left only some tentacle remnants at the original spot, a boon for the nearby little fish.
A large deep-sea octopus could keep the large fish full for a long time.
