Chapter 136: Sea God’s WrathEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
The surface of the water bubbled, and a rman wielding a trident rose from within, bowing towards Li Yi.
"Hero, the Sea God’s ssenger greets you."
"?"
Li Yi was stunned.
"Hero, I wish to buy the little goldfish in your possession for 1,000,000 Gold Coins." The Sea God’s ssenger held out a fistful of sparkling Gold Coins and handed them over to Li Yi.
"1,000,000 Gold Coins for the little goldfish? Are you sure?"
As Li Yi spoke to the Sea God’s ssenger, he cast his line into the water, and to his surprise, it was not kicked out. In that case, he might as well use this ti to fish for so more Wish Stones.
System Notification: [The Fishing Grand Prix is over. Fishing is currently forbidden in these waters.]
The fishing rod was pulled in automatically, to Li Yi’s astonishnt.
’F*ck, and here I thought this was a bug. To think they’d be this strict and actually disallow fishing.’
His plan had gone up in smoke. Li Yi imdiately shook his head, telling the Sea God’s ssenger, "I don’t need money right now, so I’m not selling it."
"How about 5,000,000 Gold Coins?" The Sea God’s ssenger brought out an even larger pile of Gold Coins.
"I won’t sell it!"
Li Yi truly was in no need of cash. He had a veritable fortune of about 40,000,000 now, so why would he bother with sothing like money?
He did not know the story behind the little goldfish, but he was fairly familiar with the Sea God’s ssenger because this NPC had another title. They called him the Gift-bearing ssenger.
Any player who encountered him was in for a treat. As long as they completed the mission he gave them, the rewards would definitely be more than worth it.
However, the Sea God’s ssenger only ever appeared around the Sea God’s Palace, right? Why would he suddenly show up in the Water World?
"How about 10,000,000 Gold Coins?" The Sea God’s ssenger increased his price again.
"I’m not selling it no matter how much you offer."
Li Yi was even more convinced now, because the more the Sea God’s ssenger offered, the more it showed just how much the little goldfish was truly worth. An NPC like the Sea God’s ssenger would never try to buy sothing worthless with a sum like 10,000,000 Gold Coins.
"Is that so..." The Sea God’s ssenger shook his head. After he gave it so thought, he took out a purple-colored longbow and offered it to Li Yi. "What if I add on this Sea God’s Wrath?"
Li Yi was frozen with shock.
The Sea God’s Wrath (Purple-colored Quality with an equipnt requirent of 300 in STR) had an ATK of 800–1500, STR
200, AGI
200, ATK SPD 1.0, and an additional skill. Every ti he shot out an arrow, he would accumulate one energy point, and when he reached 30 points, it would trigger the Sea God’s Descent. This attack would target all nearby hostile presences, and its attack range was 300–1500 yards, dealing exactly 200% of the user’s damage.
The Sea God’s Wrath had four special skills, and the Sea God’s Descent was just one of them.
’F*ck ...’
This Sea God’s Wrath was definitely a divine weapon. In the past life, countless Archers had fought each other to the death for this bow. Just the thought of it made them drool, but only an exceedingly few could actually obtain this weapon.
"For real?" Li Yi rubbed his eyes hard.
"The Sea God’s ssenger never lies." The Sea God’s ssenger smiled slightly and placed the Sea God’s Wrath into Li Yi’s hands.
This was the real Sea God’s Wrath in the flesh, and the most important thing was that Li Yi’s STR had already reached the requirent. In other words, he could equip this bow right now.
If he had this bow, it would not be hard at all for him to kill several hundred or thousand enemies with one shot in a PK.
"Hero, could you give
that pitiful little goldfish now?" reminded the Sea God’s Ambassador.
"Ah." Li Yi took the little goldfish out of his Backpack and handed it to the Sea God’s ssenger, but before his hand had gone all the way, he pulled it back again with the speed of light.
"Sorry, but I won’t make the trade." Li Yi wept inwardly as he returned the Sea God’s Wrath to the Sea God’s ssenger.
He had absolutely no clue as to what the little goldfish could do. If he missed this trading opportunity, would he regret his decision later? He could not be sure.
He still rembered that there was a very powerful Undead Summoner in the past life who had received an Ancient Language Scroll that could not be opened. A god from Mount Pantheon actually flew down directly and tried to trade it for a piece of equipnt equivalent to a divine weapon. In the end, that young man rejected it handsoly, and as a result, tragedy struck. He spent a whole 5 years researching the Ancient Language Scroll to no avail and never found out what it did.
If... the little goldfish was like the Ancient Language Scroll, Li Yi would beco yet another tragic hero.
’That’s the Sea God’s Wrath right there.’
Li Yi was having an internal struggle. After all, the reality right before him was far more tempting than a future fantasy.
"Hero, do you truly not wish to trade?"
"I don’t!"
Li Yi shut down the trade request from the Sea God’s ssenger once more.
The Sea God’s ssenger paused on the spot for quite so ti before he finally sighed softly, "Treat the little goldfish well, or else you will beco the enemy of the entire Sea God’s Palace."
"Gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
He bowed towards Li Yi, and then the Sea God’s ssenger sank into the depths of the water, vanishing.
"Swoosh!"
There was a flash of white light and Li Yi was sent out of the area, reappearing on the first map, the Mysterious Little Island.
This ti, the Mysterious Little Island had been expanded to several thousand tis its original size. Fishing was not allowed in the Water World right now. The reason the system sent the players here was so that it was more convenient for them to perform their trades.
The trading period lasted 12 hours, and once the ti was up, everyone would be sent out of the map.
"Selling a Small Turtle as a pet. This is not a Tortoise Mount, make sure you don’t buy the wrong thing. 100 Gold Coins for one."
"Selling Tigerskin Fish for a bargain, 1 Gold Coin for one fish. There aren’t many, so if you want them, just tap on the sign and buy them."
Countless signs for countless stalls covered every inch of the Mysterious Little Island. Countless transactions were happening here, and the scene was unprecedentedly lively and busy.
This segnt was very important as well. Many players did not like to fish, but they wanted the items that appeared at the Fishing Grand Prix. That was why they held a trading fair like this during the last segnt.
"I’m motherf*cking pissed! The system took away all my Treasure Bags, there were more than 100 of them..."
"Sa here, and there I was thinking that hoarding them up until the end could result in better equipnt. It’s so goddamn frustrating."
Many players were cursing over the disappearance of the Treasure Bags, but unfortunately, no matter how much they swore, the system was not going to repay them. After all, when they were sent into the Water World map, there was an NPC on the Mysterious Little Island that explained everything. If they had not listened carefully, it was their loss.
Li Yi also opened a purchasing stall solely dedicated to buying all sorts of gems. As for the prices, of course, the purchasing price was much lower than it was at the Auction House.
Since he was the champion of the Fishing Grand Prix, Li Yi obtained a special title, Water World Conqueror. The additional effect was that all his stats would be permanently increased by 1, and at the sa ti, he would be able to see all the fishing spots on the small map, including the hidden rare fishing spots.
Mithea’s Fishing Rod was a weapon that could be used by any class and had pretty decent attributes to boot.

[Note: This is the fishing rod left behind by the legendary Fishing Master, Mithea. The rod is engraved with Mithea’s words: Do you want to hook the legendary fish? Equip this rod and go searching...]
...
Better than gold-colored weapons of the sa level but weaker than equal-level purple-colored weapons, always 10 levels lower than the player’s current level—that was Mithea’s epic fishing rod.
Li Yi had already equipped Mithea’s Fishing Rod. The fishing rod sparkling with purple light caught everyone’s attention wherever he went.
There was another purple-colored treasure bag in his Backpack too, but Li Yi did not intend to open it yet. He wanted to wait until he had gotten back to kill a few monsters and loot them to test his luck. If he was lucky, he would open it, but if he was not, he would keep it for now.
"Snickersnee, how many Wish Stones do you have? If you’re selling ’em, I’ll take them all."
As Li Yi set up his stall, he sent Snickersnee a ssage.
"Ding!"
Just then, the sound representing a trade request ca in, and the person initiating the trade was Snickersnee. Li Yi paused for a mont and then clicked [Accept].
28 Wish Stones were sent his way.
Snickersnee gave him a guileless smile. "They’re all here. I’ve no use for these things, so you can have them all as a gift."
Li Yi was exasperated. "That won’t do, these things are worth millions each."
"I don’t need money." Snickersnee scratched his head. "The Guild’s been supplying
with forging materials, so it’s not like I’m making a loss."
Li Yi was speechless
He had fished up 55 Wish Stones in the Ultimate Water World, and once he added the ones Snickersnee gave him to the tally, he had a whopping 83 Wish Stones.
A number like that would have been enough to make him faint from happiness in the past life.
"In that case, I’ll give you the administrative rights to take money from the guild inventory whenever you want, with no upper limit."
Li Yi was equally generous, giving Snickersnee the highest level of administrative rights.
In the later stages of the ga, a Wish Stone was worth tens of millions in real-life currency. Forget giving him the highest administrative rights, it would not be unfair even if Li Yi gave him the whole guild.
’What a talent...’
The more Li Yi looked at Snickersnee, the more he felt that he had truly discovered a talent.
True, Snickersnee had not been famous at all in the past life, and he had practically disappeared toward the later stages. (Perhaps he had been stuck in the Novice Village all that ti and gave up after he grew bored.) Judging by his current performance, however, he was certainly one of the top lifestyle class players out there.
"I earned quite a bit this ti myself. I’m more than satisfied."
Snickersnee waved the large purple-colored hamr in his hand and traded it to Li Yi so he could have a look.
Li Yi was instantly stunned.
"This... ca out of a gold-colored treasure bag?"
"That’s right." Snickersnee nodded.

"What’s the matter?"
"It’s nothing." Li Yi sighed slightly. "If the main tanks saw this Holy Hamr, they’d probably cry."
