As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up

Chapter 242: Chapter 211: Opening the Club (Two-in-One)

The Dragon Gizzard Grouper they encountered last time was one and a half meters long and weighed over 220 kilograms.

The green spot they encountered today was slightly smaller, but still around 1.3 meters, and it definitely weighed more than 150 kilograms.

Chu Mingcheng looked at the fish spear in his hand and didn’t rashly move forward to catch the green spot’s attention.

Such large groupers are very aggressive; if you dare to get close, they dare to bite you.

Therefore, Chu Mingcheng swam back to the surface to find Jiang Luoluo and switch to a different fish spear.

“Encountered a big fish?”

“Yeah, a big blue spot, I was afraid the carbon fish spear’s force was too weak, so I came back to get a wooden spear.”

“Then you get on the boat first, and I’ll take you over! Later, I can also help you pull it up.”

“Okay.”

Chu Mingcheng climbed onto the boat, and Jiang Luoluo drove him to the area where they had found the green spot.

He re-entered the water and was about to load the wooden spear when he heard a splash nearby.

Turning his head, he saw that Jiang Luoluo had also come down.

She waved her camera and said with a smile, “Such an exciting scene later, I must record it.”

“Then you should equalize the pressure in your ears first, don’t dive too deep later.” The green spot was by the coral at a depth of thirty meters, a depth Chu Mingcheng was not comfortable letting her follow him to.

So he put down the fish spear and first taught her how to equalize the pressure with the Franz method.

Jiang Luoluo didn’t try to act tough and practiced the Franz method, and although she was not very proficient, as long as she didn’t dive too deep, it would be fine.

After she was ready, Chu Mingcheng loaded his fish spear and then took her hand as they began to swim deeper.

At a depth of ten meters, he turned to check on Jiang Luoluo.

Seeing she was okay, he continued leading her down to fifteen meters.

The dive watch was able to display both depth and breath-hold time. Chu Mingcheng let go of her hand, signaling her to stay at that depth and not to dive any deeper.

Jiang Luoluo obediently complied, feeling the pressure of the surrounding water.

Moreover, this depth was right at the edge of neutral buoyancy in the water, where she could float steadily at this layer with the aid of her weight belt.

Diving deeper would be influenced by negative buoyancy, causing her to sink and forcing her to kick her legs to maintain buoyancy, which would deplete her oxygen faster and force her to return to the surface earlier than planned.

Feeling that Jiang Luoluo was doing fine, Chu Mingcheng quickly moved above the green spot, holding his spear.

Without hesitation, he aimed and pressed the trigger; the spear shot out with a “whoosh~” sound, penetrating deeply into the body of the green spot.

The green spot struggled wildly in pain. Chu Mingcheng let it struggle, not immediately pulling the fish in.

He held the fish spear and released the line, then followed the current to the surface.

His actions were so decisive because he was worried that Jiang Luoluo couldn’t hold her breath but still insisted on filming him hunting the green spot, which could easily lead to choking.

Over forty seconds had passed, and her breath-holding time couldn’t possibly exceed a minute and a half.

So while releasing the line, he swam over to her, grabbed her hand, and started to slowly ascend to the surface.

They moved slowly, giving Jiang Luoluo time to adjust to the pressure.

In reality, a depth of fifteen meters didn’t require so much fuss, but since she was his future wife, no amount of caution was excessive.

Back at the surface, Jiang Luoluo spat out her snorkel and took a deep breath, “Almost suffocated. Looks like I need to practice holding my breath more.”

“Yeah, when we have time, let’s go swimming. Swimming for long periods can enhance physical fitness and lung capacity. And don’t forget to keep practicing the Franz; otherwise, you won’t be able to dive into the deep zones.”

Chu Mingcheng verbally suggested, but his mind was actually brewing a new idea.

But for now, he needed to pull in the fish first and then discuss it with Chen Yang and the others once he was free.

The green spot had a strong vitality; even being hit at a vital point, it struggled for a long time before Chu Mingcheng could pull it to the surface.

Weighing over 150 kilograms, he and Jiang Luoluo couldn’t manage to get it onto the boat by themselves initially.

Eventually, they had to call back Chen Yang and Zhang Wei. It took the combined effort of four people to haul the fish aboard.

“Another big grouper like this. Are we in the wrong spot, why just small fish?” Zhang Wei said enviously.

He patted the fish, producing a thumping sound.

“Maybe our spot is shallower, but it’s not too bad. We’ve got plenty of these precious groupers,” Chen Yang lifted a few precious groupers he had caught on his live fish hook, satisfied with his catch for the day.

“Seems like you guys had a good catch this morning too!” Chu Mingcheng quickly calculated and realized that Chen Yang’s catch from the morning was already worth five or six thousand.

This was just the first morning. If they added the afternoon and evening, the two of them could at least recover a quarter of their investment, and with some luck, maybe even a third.

“Still can’t compare to you, this green spot is almost ten thousand bucks!” Zhang Wei sighed.

Chen Yang was quite easy-going, “You can’t really compare; don’t just look at Ah Cheng’s diving license being the same as ours, but his diving level is not something we can match. The deeper the water, the greater the chance of encountering big fish. We currently dive about twenty meters deep, so how many big fish can we encounter?”

“Ah Cheng is just a freak!” Zhang Wei, thinking of how Chu Mingcheng could dynamically dive for at least five minutes, was filled with envy.

He had just barely managed two minutes of dynamic breath-holding, and he almost didn’t pass the test.
