As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up

Chapter 581: Chapter 357: Sea Storm_2

Afterward, it leisurely swam somewhere else.

However, it had just swum a short distance when it unexpectedly spotted a squid.

The squid was not fast, usually serving as its prey, albeit being slightly more difficult to catch than an octopus.

But this squid was strange, having stayed in the same spot for the better part of the day before moving upward at a slow pace.

Its struggle looked so enticing, that after a deep-sea octopus had its fill, adding one more squid seemed like a fine idea.

Therefore, it charged at its prey once more, catching up and swallowing the squid whole with a large gulp.

Yet after just a few bites, it felt something was wrong—why was its mouth in so much pain?

It was not just the creature that felt something amiss, as Chu Mingcheng also sensed something was off—how could the little prey suddenly exert such a strong force?

Luckily, anticipating a big fish might bite, he had equipped a thick fishing line and rod, which could handle the fish as long as it did not pull too hard.

After reeling and tugging for a while, Chu Mingcheng discovered an important piece of information.

The creature biting the bait was strong and heavy, but particularly slow under water.

Had it been a Golden Spearfish of the same size, it would have dashed more than two hundred meters away under these circumstances, but this fish had barely managed ten meters.

This reassured Chu Mingcheng even further in his fishing; the fish’s slow speed indicated a lack of strong bursts.

A fish like this was basically quite difficult to lose unless one was incredibly unlucky with a line break.
