Chapter 1053 Dead Sea Fishing
"It is neither a loan of a merchant's skills nor an authorization from an organizer."

“Gamer… Lindsay, your skills are truly too comprehensive.”

The simple wooden raft drifted with the current.

Wala Wala sat on the chair that Lindsay had just brought out, and the two went sea fishing together.

Just as the girl was muttering about how unreasonable Lindsay's technique was, she felt her arm sink downwards—the fishing rod was being pulled by something!
"Took the bait!"

Wala Wala's spirits lifted, and her eyes widened instantly.

She suddenly lifted the [Flower Fishing Rod] upwards, and a cold, hard object landed in her hand.

"..."

The girl looked at what she was holding, remained silent for a few seconds, and then looked at her lover beside her:

"Lindsay, why did I fish up a rock?"

thump--

Right next to Wala Wala, Lindsay had just thrown the stone in her hand back into the Sea of ​​Lost Souls.

Hearing the call, he could only respond with an awkward laugh:
"Ha ha--"

"When it comes to fishing, no one can guarantee that they will hit the target every time."

"This is normal, let's keep up the good work!"

Wala shrugged and threw his stone back into the sea.

"Ok."

They continued fishing in the Lost Sea.

But after about fifteen minutes, neither of them had caught anything. They even found the stones they kept catching increasingly suspicious, as they seemed to be exactly the same as the ones they had caught before.

"Um……"

Lindsay frowned slightly.

This situation was understandable when he first started fishing. But now...

He glanced at his fishing gear, then tightened his grip on the high-end fishing rod:
"An unprecedented situation."

"The gamer's skills are definitely not the problem. So it must be that the environment here is not right."

Upon hearing this, Wala Wala immediately leaned closer to Lindsay:
"Don't rush, it's only been 15 minutes."

"Lindsay, I think we can have some confidence in your skills. Perhaps the sea area is special, or perhaps the equipment is not strong enough."

"In short, isn't patience the most important thing in fishing?"

Lindsay sensed the comfort in Varawa's tone:

"It's nothing, it just means spending a little more time fishing!"

"When I first awakened this skill, it took me a very long time to get any rewards. It wasn't until later, when I acquired more exclusive equipment, that..."

Lindsay paused.

A casual question sparked a sudden inspiration in him.

So Lindsay put the Cloud Sea Fishing Rod back into her bag and took out the Seven-Colored Radiant Sword that she had just synthesized.

"Ugh?"

"What's this!!!"

Upon seeing the uniquely shaped longsword, Wala Wala immediately approached.

Her eyes widened, and apart from still tightly gripping the [Flower Fishing Rod] in her hand, her entire attention was focused on the weapon before her:
"A strange and powerful force."

"Lindsay, even the equipment you've shown me, none of it can compare to this."

"Something's wrong with this sword!"

"Where did it come from? Could it be from an eighth-level craftsman? It can't be another creation of yours, can it? Wait! Why has the shape of this thing changed!"

Exclamations of surprise and delight rang out.

Right before her eyes, the powerful weapon began to transform, eventually becoming a beautiful long pole shimmering with metallic luster, and at its tip, a thin line formed by colored light fell vertically into the water.

Wala Wala realized what was happening:
"This weapon can also be turned into a fishing rod?"

“This is one of my transforming weapons, and its power is indeed impressive.” Lindsay smiled with satisfaction. “Now that a normal fishing rod won’t work, let’s try this special equipment…”

slam-la-

Before Lindsay could finish speaking, the Seven-Colored Radiant Sword in her hand began to shake rapidly.

"Look!" "They've taken the bait!"

Lindsay immediately raised her rod.

Another dark, cold stone rested in his hand. Feeling its icy texture, Lindsay sniffed; he could even smell the seawater on it!

"..."

"........."

"Laugh if you want."

“Puchi—hahaha!”

Looking at the stone in his hand, Lindsay helplessly tossed it behind him, splashing water everywhere. Beside him, Walawa was laughing so hard he was practically sprawled on the wooden plank.

"When you're fishing, you can't always get a bite."

"Patience! The most important thing in this kind of thing is always patience!"

Wala Wala climbed up Lindsay's body.

She placed her right hand on her chest to calm her breathing before continuing to ask:
"Lindsay, I remember you said there was such a thing as a King Fish?"

Lindsay pointed to the sky, which was beginning to turn yellow:

"The King Fish requires specific weather conditions. Right now, there's no wind or rain, so there's probably no chance of catching it."

Wala Wala then remembered something:

"King of Fish, the Sea of ​​Lost Souls..."

"Lindsay, do you think if we catch a kingfish here, it might be Zoroa?"

"..."

Lindsay paused, both of them lost in thought as they reminisced about their final adventure in the Seven Seas Alliance.

In that independent, subordinate world.

They had encountered the sea monster Zorua, who lived in the Sea of ​​Lost Paths, and it was at great risk that they managed to defeat it.

As for now...

Lindsay looked around at the vast blue ocean.

That terrifying behemoth should live here. Will they be able to meet again this time?
slam-la-

At this moment, the fishing rod twitched again.
As you instinctively pull up, a square, dark shape breaks through the water's surface, and you've fished it up.

"Treasure chest!"

Lindsay perked up and beamed with joy.

The treasure chest in the Lost Sea has no patterns on its surface; the entire chest is made of gray wooden planks. At first glance, it looks like an unremarkable, ordinary wooden chest.

But Lindsay certainly knew that this thing was just its appearance.

The gray wooden planks are the nature of this ocean, and the lack of patterns is also a characteristic of its emptiness.

"open!"

Lindsay used her strength to tear the top of the box open.

He and Wala Wala peered inside and discovered that, apart from some dark green seaweed, there was only a small blue gem lying in the gray wooden box.

[Unique Item/Material: Trendy Stone]

A unique gemstone capable of converting life force and death force; worn as an ornament; it can protect the living from the hostility of the dead; it can also be used as a material to make other items.

The power of life and death alternating.

[These are special gemstones that only appear in rare and dangerous places; their price is difficult to determine because there are no records of them being traded on the market.]

"..."

Lindsay was speechless for a moment.

He opened the [Workbench] and looked at the long-awaited synthesis formula.

【1 Magical Conch + 1 Tide Stone = Tide-Surging Conch】

[1 Forest Brooch + 1 Tidal Bore Seashell + 1 Sky Compass = Ecosystem Radar]

"..."

"The ecosystem radar, it's done just like that?"
