Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 194 Menata's Ability
After assigning the first worker the identity of a warship logistics staff member, an information prompt indeed appeared.

[The Heart of Death has acquired a logistics personnel member. Whether to assign a crew member to a member is up to 20.]

"Only the maintenance technician?"

Su Wang immediately realized that he had not yet assigned a crew position to Menata.

Menata was immediately hired as a cook.

As expected, the allocation of logistics personnel has added a chef option.

From this point of view, perhaps we need to find another 20 workers to come up.

There is no rush. Su Wang plans to wait until he finishes dealing with the current matters before making any preparations.

I chose to assign this worker to Mirei, and a prompt message appeared.

[The repairman gains a subordinate logistics personnel, vehicle repair efficiency increases by 5%, and when the battleship is at full durability, it can gain a 5% durability shield.]

"Now Mirei can relax a lot."

The Heart of Death has the ability to fly and an extremely long range, which allows it to avoid most attacks.

However, it can enhance the protection of warships, which is good news overall.

Since there were not enough personnel prepared, Su Wang temporarily arranged 10 people to work under Mi Lei.

There are 10 people left. Let’s first see what bonuses the cook can provide.

Su Wang immediately arranged for the first logistics staff to work under Menata.

[The cook gains a logistics staff member, the vehicle production area's output increases by 10%, the decomposition output increases by 5%, and the probability of decomposing rare items increases by 0.1%.]

"what?"

This time, even Su Wang felt a little surprised.

Will the yield of decomposition materials and the probability of obtaining rare items increase?
Could it be that you are referring to the decomposition of fish catches?

Su Wang immediately thought that he had not yet understood Menata's job capabilities.

This bonus may be related to Menata's position as a chef.

After Su Wang quickly arranged the 10 people to join the crew, he immediately led Menata to the kitchen level of the battleship.

The kitchen space on the battleship is not small, and there are dozens of stoves for cooking ingredients.

In addition, in the central area, there is an unknown steel table that occupies a large area.

Su Wang called out the crew interface, checked Menata's employment information, and found that she had the ability to decompose.

This is an ability that neither Mirei nor Tia possesses.

Therefore, any fish caught in the past would be dissected by Su Wang himself.

And now Menata has the ability to decompose.

Taking into account Menata's qualification bonus,
Su Wang immediately asked Menata whether she had the ability to extract supplies from the fish tank and whether the vehicle had the ability to connect to the fish in the fish breeding lake.

After receiving a positive response,

So he asked Menata to try to extract a regular black iron-level fish from the fish breeding lake.

Menata closed her eyes and felt the information in her mind.

Su Wang witnessed a blue-black fish about two or three meters long suddenly appear out of thin air on the steel table in the middle.

After checking the information,

It was indeed a regular Black Iron-level fish, but its endurance value was only the lowest point of 1.

Su Wang's mind moved, and a faint flash of lightning flashed across the fish, taking away its last bit of endurance.

After Menata opened her eyes, Su Wang hurriedly said.

"Go up and try to decompose it."

Menata nodded obediently, moved closer to the steel table, and used her decomposition ability on the fish.

The next second, the entire fish body suddenly disintegrated into a pile of materials.

Su Wang leaned forward to take a look, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up.

"This is great!"

[Bronze-grade Blue Snapper Slices 300g*15 servings], [Bronze Fish Skin*30], [Silver Fish Tendon*3], [Bronze…].

It was clearly just a decomposition of a black iron grade fish, but the output turned out to be bronze and silver grade materials.

Although the amount of materials is not as much as that of normal silver fish, the quality has magically changed.

Judging from Menata's qualification bonus information, there should be a level 2 upgrade this time.

In other words, if you are lucky, there is a chance that gold-grade fish material will appear even when decomposing black iron-grade fish.

And when decomposing gold-grade fish, wouldn't the minimum required be extraordinary-grade fish?

Su Wang then asked Menata to extract one bronze, silver and gold-level regular fish each and conduct experiments on them one by one.

Sure enough, the grade of the decomposed materials has been improved.

As expected, the gold-level fish also decomposed into extraordinary-level fish materials.

However, there were no sub-saint-level fish materials, and even silver-level fish could only be decomposed into gold-level fish materials.

It seems that the probability of upgrading the level of 2nd-order materials is not high.

Su Wang asked Menata to try a few more times to catch silver and gold-level fish, which once again verified this guess.

Since a base number of fish had to be left for reproduction, Su Wang did not let her try more.

Menata's ability undoubtedly greatly increases the possibility of obtaining extraordinary fish materials.

As long as there are enough gold-level fish for decomposition, a large amount of extraordinary-level fish materials can be obtained for the manufacture of extraordinary-level equipment and warships.

Menata has several other qualification bonuses, and Su Wang is also ready to continue testing them.

The first thing that comes to mind is the bonus of cooking ingredients.

A silver-grade fish was brought to the scene and Menata was asked to fry it simply. Menata came to the stove, started the stove, and began to cook the fish very skillfully.

After a while, the fish fillets sprinkled with simple seasonings were brought to Su Wang.

Just like the food made by Cao Ge's chef,
The food Menata was cooking at the moment also had information revealed.

【Roughly fried fish fillet】

Taste level: Good.

Effect of consumption: Immediately restore 1000 endurance points, continuously restore 10 endurance points per second within 100 minutes, and increase strength attributes by 10 points during this period.

...

The effect did not disappoint Su Wang.

Ordinary silver-grade fish meat not only has a greatly improved endurance recovery effect, but also has special effects that only low-level rare fish meat has.

Su Wang picked it up and took a bite. The flavor that was completely different from raw fish spread in his mouth. It was tender but not burnt, just right.

From this we can see that Menata was able to serve as Tia's exclusive maid, and her cooking skills were reliable.

Regardless of the special effects of the food, at least the quality of life on the ship will be improved by several levels.

Then we tested the ability to enhance the effect of bait.

As Menata picked up the fish and used her ability, the level of fish that the bait could attract increased, and the range also expanded.

Su Wang thought about the problem of bait synthesis when he caught the colorful fish king last time.
Maybe next time I catch the fish king, I can make use of Menata's qualifications and abilities.

...

Menata's crew's abilities have been tested.

Su Wang sensed Mirei's location and took Menata to Mirei's residence for their first meeting.

After the pollution was washed away, Mirei was no longer as shy as she was the last time she met Tia.

This time when meeting Menata, he did not hide behind Su Wang, although there was still a timid look on his face.

Su Wang also introduced each of them to each other, and did not hide anything about Mi Lei's life experience.

After learning about Mirei's previous life,
Menata, who has a mature and gentle personality, can't help but look at Mirei with a bit of maternal love.

Leave Mirei and Menata to communicate and understand each other,
Su Wang went to gather all the fishermen on the sightseeing warship and brought them off the warship together.

After returning to the dock,
Su Wang found the manager in charge of the dock residents and again proposed to find 20 residents who were suitable to be taken on the warship.

There is no need to rush to call him this time. We can wait until he returns to the dock in two days before boarding the ship.

Then he called Tia, who was far away in the family, to come board the ship and go out to sea.

Su Wang also instructed the more than one hundred fishermen at the dock to board their vehicles and participate in the operation.

After half an hour,
Tia has arrived at the port and the fishermen have already boarded the boat and taken their positions.

Su Wang immediately returned to the Wangxin with Tia.

It was almost evening and it was time to head to Pearl Wharf to provide assistance.

The Heart of Death hung high in the air, while on the water below was a fleet of 165 fishing vessels, 404 warships, and 35 transport ships carrying residents.

Su Wang called out the Fishermen's Alliance interface, selected the only Pearl Dock among the alliance's affiliated docks, and opened the door to collective travel.

...

On a bare dock of only 9 square meters,
Several figures gathered at the edge of the harbor, gazing into the distance.

One of the shorter figures turned and asked a tall and slender figure next to him.

"Sister Di...did Boss Wangxin really agree to come and help?
It's already this late, and there's still no sign of a ship."

When Di Anxuan heard the question, she retracted her gaze from the distance, bit her lip and replied.

"Xiao Rong, I believe in the character of Wang Xin Hao. He has helped us fishermen many times before. He must be a good person at heart."

“He promised to help yesterday, so he wouldn’t lie to me.

Furthermore, if our dock can develop, we will provide resources to Fool's Dock every month, which should be beneficial to him."

After hearing Di Anxuan's reply, the other figures also took back what they wanted to say.

But his constant gaze into the distance and the worry that could not be hidden on his face showed that his inner worries had not diminished.

And at this moment,
Two towering water columns suddenly rose hundreds of meters above the dock.

This scene immediately caused several figures on the dock to show expressions of panic.

"What is this…isn't the red tide still a few hours away?"

"Hurry up and get on board, beware of danger!"

Just as they hurriedly tried to board their respective vehicles,
Suddenly, another scene appeared between the two water columns, as if they were connected to another body of water.

Looking through the space between the water columns, you can even see a corner of a prosperous port.

The most eye-catching thing is
There were several huge silver-gray bows sailing towards this side through the water area in the middle of the water column.

"It's a ship! There's a ship passing through from that side!" exclaimed the short Ge Xiaorong.

At the same time, Di Anxuan, who was a little panicked, suddenly received a call request from the Fishermen's Alliance.

The initiator was the Wangxinhao who had been waiting anxiously.

As the call was connected, a deep and steady male voice sounded in her ears.

"I led the fleet to provide support. When we arrived, there were two huge water columns."

Hearing this, Di Anxuan was both surprised and happy.

"Boss Wangxin, why didn't you give me a heads up? You almost scared me to death."

...
