Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 92 Information Broadening
There are still more than 9 hours until the red tide arrives in the evening.

Su Wang took advantage of this time,

Pilot the Deathheart to fish in the waters near the dock to increase and replenish the fish population in the fish breeding lake.

By evening, the number of regular breeding fish species in the fish breeding lake had increased by an additional seven.

Seeing that there was not much time left before the red tide came, Su Wang chose to stop and return to Hong Kong.

After returning to Hong Kong,
Su Wang did not choose to dock at the port, but instead found Tia, who was doing nothing at the dock, and asked her to steer the Death Heart and prepare to participate in the red tide.

As for himself, he was in charge of the overall situation at the dock.

As the vehicle commander, Tia has the authority to use the vehicle's various capabilities.

Taking advantage of this red tide, Tia can get familiar with the experience of operating the Heart of Destruction in combat, so as to avoid confusion in the future.

When the dock expansion was about to begin, some of the dock's murloc guards had already been summoned in advance.

Su Wang also took the time to check the summoned gold-level murloc guards to see if there were any differences.

[Poisonous Scorpionfish Wharf Murloc Guard]

Class: Gold-level amphibious murloc.

Strength: 244.

Stamina: 5640.

Features: Poisoned Harpoon - The harpoon is filled with paralysis poison, which will cause damage equal to Strength*150% of the target's endurance after stabbing the target. There is also a 30% chance that the target will be paralyzed for 3 seconds and unable to move.

Introduction: A product derived from the fish soul, it only has basic combat awareness and will dissolve on its own after its durability is exhausted. It can move within the radiation range of the dock.

...

"Sure enough, it has special abilities just like the gold-level fish." Su Wang nodded with satisfaction.

The normal hatching limit of golden fish souls is 200, and if they are embedded on the fish soul altar, it will be 2000.

23 golden fish souls will bring 4.6 golden dock fishman guards.

Except for a few fish souls that are repeated, each of the others has different characteristics and abilities.

Compared to the silver murloc guards who are only one level lower, the gold-level murloc guards with special features are more than one level stronger in combat power.

Once the dock is back on track, 20 of them can be replaced and equipped on the Heart of Destruction.

By then, you can start to conquer the gold and silver dock pointers in the fish hold.

Soon, it was half an hour before the red tide began.

Su Wang also received the information that the Fool's Wharf could be deployed, and immediately chose to deploy it.

The next second, with the emergence of a wave of expansion, the dock quickly extended outward.

After ten minutes,
As soon as the dock expansion was completed, Su Wang immediately sent all the fishman guards except the Black Iron level into the water.

There are 4 murloc guards stationed on each of the four sides of the dock, and the remaining 7 murloc guards are arranged at the bottom of the larger dock.

With the expansion of the garrison area, even the 47 fishman guards' defense line seemed sparse.

However, if it is only a level 1 red tide, this number is enough.

This is probably because the 5 nautical miles around the pier were once pure waters.

During the first ten minutes or so, there were no signs of strange fish approaching near the pier.

But when you look far away, you can see some ripples emerging on the sea surface.

The only two ships at the dock were already approaching the waters revealed by the surging waves.

After a while, the Wangxin, which had a longer range, was seen firing first at the surge.

Su Wang only observed for a short while, and then felt relieved after confirming that Tia did not act rashly.

This red tide not only allows Tia to get familiar with the Heart of Death, but also allows Lao Cao to participate in the process of experiencing the red tide and gain some experience.

Connect to the local dock alliance and see the dock bounty missions.

Su Wang also realized that in addition to a huge wave of resource harvest after each red tide.

If you want to obtain a large amount of resources, you usually have to send fleets to other ports to complete tasks and earn bounty resources.

When the number of fleets increases in the future, it may be possible to dispatch multiple fleets at the same time.

It is still necessary to train some experienced fleet leaders.

In the following time, the Wangxin and Qin Shi Huang fought and retreated, gradually moving towards the Fool's Wharf.

Without sonar radar,

Most of the time, it was the Wangxin that maintained the artillery output, while Lao Cao's Qin Shi Huang could only launch a few artillery attacks after getting closer.

But after just a few shots, they had to retreat to avoid the approaching tide of fish.

"It seems we need to equip each ship with a sonar radar."

Seeing this, Su Wang realized the importance of sonar radar in ship combat.

In addition, there are also ship-borne cannons and the output and consumption of the warship itself.

If you want to form an initial fleet, the materials needed are probably extremely huge.

At the same time, Su Wang also thought about the issue of the captains needed to operate the warships.

Warships can be produced if there are enough resources, but the shipbuilders are undoubtedly more troublesome.

Judging from the various bounty tasks within the Dock Alliance,
The local port rulers are not short of resources, but what they lack are probably captains who can operate warships.

The warship fleets they currently have are probably accumulated over a long period of time, and they have gradually cultivated enough shipbuilders.

As for the 5 local human residents who will be relocated from the mainland docks,

Su Wang didn't believe that the rulers of these local docks would be so kind as to send a group of sailors along with them.

"Tsk...it's really hard to start from scratch." Su Wang felt a headache the more he thought about it.

Due to the lack of time, Fool's Wharf faced difficulties in just creating its first fleet.

What they lack most is the [Shipper's Baptism Potion] that can produce a captain.

One known way to obtain them is by completing emergency fishing missions to clean up polluters. However, unless you can attack the polluter's docks, it's impossible to get a large number of kills in a short period of time.

Thinking of this, Su Wang suddenly had an idea and came up with a risky idea.

The Fire Shrimp Wharf is gathering a fleet to attack the polluting White Shark Wharf. Perhaps he can steer the Death Heart and sneak in.

I glanced at the unused Ocean Relic abilities.
Su Wang stopped thinking about it and focused on checking the progress of the red tide.

At present, the main group of red tide fish has gradually arrived near the Fool's Wharf.
The Wangxin and Qin Shihuang had already retreated to the side of the dock and were clearing out the strange fish with long-range firepower.

The fishman guards at the dock have also begun to transport the corpses of the strange fish ashore.

While Su Wang was paying attention to the overview map of the dock, he was constantly replenishing the fallen fishman guards.

With sufficient combat power, they systematically delayed the time until the stage of activating the sea purification capability.

With the sea purification ability activated,
The Red Tide was running out of threats and it wasn’t long before they were entering their final stages.

Compared to Su Wang, who had experienced several red tides, Cao Ge had never seen such a magnificent scene of fish corpses everywhere.

Soon, Su Wang received a call request from Cao Ge through the dock contact function.

"Boss Wangxin... do you think I can..."

When Su Wang heard Cao Ge's hesitant words, he immediately understood his thoughts.

There are a lot of dead fish on the sea right now, and it is definitely impossible to catch them all within the time limit of sinking.

Su Wang immediately scolded with a smile.

"For those in the waters near the dock, forget about it. Those further away are yours to pick."

"However, there may still be a small number of high-level monster fish underwater. Be careful when sailing outside the protection range of the murloc guards."

These fish that were not collected,
Su Wang would not be so stingy as to let it sink and waste, and not let Cao Ge have a share.

More than an hour later, the aftermath of the red tide came to an end.

Su Wang was quite delighted when he saw the huge corpses of strange fish being dragged onto the dock by the fishman guards.

"Sure enough, there are gold-level monster fish, but the number is a little small."

Considering that it is only a level 1 red tide after all, it is normal.

It took nearly an hour just to clean the fish from the sea.

The ever-increasing amount of resources in the fish hold further enhanced the resource base of Fool's Wharf.

After the red tide ends,
Tia piloted the Death Heart into port and found Su Wang near the Fish Soul Altar.

Before the person got closer, Su Wang heard Tia's slightly excited voice.

"Captain, your warship is amazing! It's even better than my Winnie the Pooh!"

Su Wang just smiled when he heard this.

The Winnie that Tia mentioned was probably the warship she piloted at the Golden Crocodile Pier.

The fisherman's vehicle is naturally incomparable to that of a mass-produced warship.

Not to mention that his own ship, the Heart of Destruction, can be said to be the strongest vehicle among fishermen at present.

At this time, Su Wang thought of the question about the captain and immediately asked Tia.

"Tia, where do you usually get the baptismal potion for shipmasters?"

A concentrated version of the Master's Baptism Potion obtained from Emergency Fishing missions.

The shipmaster baptism potion seen at the Golden Crocodile Wharf was of the regular type.

Su Wang couldn't help but wonder how the local docks obtained supplies like the ship's baptism potion.

Hearing Su Wang's question, Tia answered without hesitation.

"Of course it's refined, but it requires some kind of alchemy house facility on the dock. It seems it requires a special dock core to build."

"Unfortunately, Captain, your dock isn't high enough to invite the Pisces Caravan over. Otherwise, you could purchase this type of dock core through the Pisces Caravan."

Su Wang quickly asked, "What level of dock core is the Alchemy House? What is the invitation level of the Pisces Fleet?"

Tia thought for a moment before responding.

"The Alchemy House seems to be the core of the Silver-level Specialty Dock. The Pisces Caravan needs a Level 4 Dock to be eligible for an invitation."

"By the way, the Pisces Fleet can not only order goods, but sometimes they will also provide some special talents, which are all extremely useful for the development of the dock."

Special talents?

Su Wang couldn't help but feel confused when he heard this, and asked immediately.

“What is a special talent?”

Tia replied upon hearing this.

“Some special talents can resonate with the specialty buildings at the docks, increasing the output of specialty buildings and even raising the level of the buildings.”

"Sometimes dock dwellers will suddenly possess this ability, but it's usually difficult to detect."

A hint of realization flashed across Su Wang's eyes.

Isn’t this special talent the worker inspired by the Enlightenment Potion!

Tia seemed to remember something at this time and suddenly asked.

"Captain, are you really not the heir of a certain family?"

"Why are there so many high-level murloc guards at the dock?"
