The level 3 aquatic product illustration book has not changed much, but there is a new ability.

Afterwards, Chu Mingcheng clicked on this ability to check its specific function.

【Hunter's Blessing】

【Ability 1: Intimate partner. 】

【Every hunter will have a trusted partner by his side. When there are friendly or even intimate aquatic creatures around the host, he can order them to help him. (The closer you are, the more you will obey the host's orders unconditionally)]

【Ability 2: Hazard Identification】

【During the hunting process, many deadly creatures will be encountered, and the host will gain the ability to recognize them. It is impossible for all harmful organisms to escape the eyes of the host. 】

The first ability, Chu Mingcheng experienced it, and the three sea lions obeyed his orders to intercept fish schools is the best proof.

And it seems that he can get help from other creatures in the future, provided that the other creature is friendly enough to him.

So the three sea lions are still very valuable to cultivate, at least the closer the relationship between the two parties, the more obedient they are.

As for the second ability, Chu Mingcheng thought about it.

Harmful organisms cannot escape our own eyes, does it include those reef fish with ciguatera?

This is what worries him the most at the moment, and it is also the ability he needs the most.

If he can identify ciguatera, then he can continue to hunt these high-value reef fish, and there is no need to worry about accidentally catching grouper with ciguatera, which will harm others and himself.

Before he had life transformation and detoxification, but Jiang Luoluo's illness made him feel distressed for a long time.

Fortunately, the situation is not that serious, and she has no sequelae.

Otherwise, Chu Mingcheng will definitely regret it for the rest of his life. After all, ciguatera is a sequelae of tenth-level disability.

Now that you have obtained this important ability, you must experiment.

Although it is past four o'clock in the afternoon today, it will be late when he goes back, but if he doesn't understand this ability, he will definitely be confused.

The location here is only two nautical miles away from the Crescent Island. Chu Mingcheng started the fishing boat, and after a while, he came to the coral area of ​​the island.

I just took a shower and changed out of my diving suit, but I can't care about trouble now.

Chu Mingcheng stripped himself naked, wearing only a pair of boxers.

The strong figure is completely exposed to the air, but no one appreciates it.

He came to the small door on the rear deck and jumped into the water directly, and then swam to the bottom of the coral reef.

Come to the coral reef area, it’s not time to hunt yet, most fish are still hiding.

Some small fish were above the coral, but he didn't see anything unusual.

At this moment, a cute and cute little fat man swam past his eyes with short fins on both sides.

It is a puffer fish, with big round eyes, it looks a little cute.

However, Chu Mingcheng found that its abdomen and the position of the gonads were full of rich green.

This should be a pufferfish, which is quite big, with a length of fifty or sixty centimeters.

Chu Mingcheng was not here for fishing and hunting. When he encountered such a big puffer fish, he swam over immediately.

The puffer fish sensed that a huge creature was approaching and ran away immediately.

Just the next moment, a hand patted on it, and it rolled several times in the water immediately after patting it.

Puffer fish realized that he couldn't run, so he immediately puffed up his stomach, as if he was very angry after being photographed.

After just a short while, it becomes a ball, the size of a household pot.

Chu Mingcheng originally wanted to tease it, but he didn't expect that when it bulged its belly, the puffer fish in his vision had a bulging belly, but the inside was still green.

Knowing that the internal organs of puffer fish are poisonous, he now understands the effect of the new ability.

Is this telling it that the biological internal organs and gonads in front of it are highly toxic?

Chu Mingcheng immediately stopped thinking about teasing the puffer fish, and he was going to see other creatures.

After a short while, he met a sea snake, and the teeth of the sea snake and the location of the poisonous naan were green in his eyes.

When trying to turn off the new ability, the green color will disappear.

Afterwards, he saw green on the fins of Shi Jiugong's back, and toxins were also seen inside some Aijie crabs crawling on coral reefs.

These creatures originally had their own toxins, Chu Mingcheng was not surprised to see where their toxins gathered.

He knows most of the marine life in the domestic waters, so it seems that this ability is a bit weak, but the new ability is still very useful.

He doesn’t know many aquatic creatures when he goes abroad, so this ability is very useful.

But these are not the key points, ciguatera cannot be seen on the surface, this new ability must be able to see ciguatera, that is the greatest help to him at this stage.

But he saw a lot of grouper and coral fish, but he didn't find anything special.

This also let him know that the proportion of reef fish with ciguatera is still relatively small, otherwise he would have had an accident after hunting so many reef fish.

Wandering around for a long time, a Eastern Star Spot, estimated to weigh more than ten kilograms, appeared in front of his eyes.

Chu Mingcheng's eyes lit up, and finally found a grouper with poison.

The head and abdomen of this fish are the most green, and the body is also slightly green, indicating that its fish meat is also poisonous, but the toxin is relatively small.

When Chu Mingcheng turned off the ability of danger recognition, the East Star Spot returned to its original beautiful posture.

When the function is turned on, there is nothing to eat except the fins on the whole body of the fish.

Ciguatoxin is mainly concentrated in the internal organs and head of the fish. It seems that this eastern star spot is the owner of ciguatera toxin.

Now that he has understood some usages of the new ability, Chu Mingcheng returned to the boat with confidence.

However, he was still very curious about how some dangerous but non-poisonous creatures would look when viewed with this function.

In the future, if you encounter such a creature, you should also turn on this function to have a look.

The three sea lions moved very quickly, and the seventy to eighty catties of fish were eaten clean, leaving only a little blood and meat on the deck.

Chu Mingcheng directly ordered the three sea lions to disembark and return to the island to rest, then washed the lower deck with water, and went back to the bathroom to take a shower again.

It was getting late, and he didn't delay any longer, and sailed home.

When he was about to return to the pier, Chu Mingcheng contacted the buyer, but no one in the group was interested in the red kingfish.

The main reason is that this fish is too common, customers in Vancouver don’t need it, and there is no need to spend extra shipping fees.

Some restaurants in Xiamen City don’t purchase much, only thirty to fifty catties, which sounds like he’s giving him face, and he has to send it over.

So when Chu Mingcheng returned to the pier, he simply sold it to the fishmonger directly.

In the future, when he has a good product, let’s see if he will give face to these restaurants, and he won’t even say a nice euphemistic refusal. The business deserves to be getting worse and worse.

1,372 catties of fish were bought by three fishmongers at a unit price of 18 yuan, with a total of more than 24,000 sold.

There are more spots than that mouse, but he worked hard all afternoon.

Sure enough, fine aquatic products are more successful. Now that they have new abilities, they are not afraid of ciguatera.

At home, Jiang Luoluo saw Chu Mingcheng came back, and hurriedly reheated the dinner for the evening.

According to what she knew about this man, there was a high probability that she didn't eat at night.

But even if you eat it at night, it’s okay, as a supper.

"Lolo, how is the yacht driver's license test going?" Chu Mingcheng asked after dinner.

The drone test is very simple. Both of them passed the test after practicing for a while, and now they are waiting for their driver's licenses.

However, the yacht driver's license is relatively troublesome, but Jiang Luoluo has long been able to sail, so it stands to reason that there is no problem.

"It must be passed, because of Grandpa's relationship, the driving school said that the driver's license can be issued before the fishing ban."

"That's good." Chu Mingcheng nodded, and then brought up another matter, "By the way, I plan to sell this boat, what do you think?"

Jiang Luoluo thought for a while, this time their trip will be longer, and they will not come back until the fishing ban period has completely passed.

At that time, the big boat had already fallen into the water. With the big boat going out to sea, they would definitely not drive the small boat again.

This small boat is estimated to be parked at the pier all the time, and it will have to be maintained and berth fees paid, which is obviously not cost-effective.

After selling it, I can return a big mouthful of blood, and save trouble.

So she nodded: "It's good to sell it, anyway, I won't need it in the future."

Seeing that she agreed, Chu Mingcheng stopped mentioning this matter.

When the fishing ban begins, hang it directly at the shipyard and ask them to help sell it, and at most they will pay a handling fee.

As for selling to the shipyard, Chu Mingcheng would not do so unless it was absolutely necessary, because the price would be kept down and it would not be worthwhile.

Ten days will pass quickly, the driver's license and visa have been obtained, the plane tickets have been purchased, and the departure will take place at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

The fishing boat has been driven by Chu Mingcheng to the shipyard and asked them to help sell it.

The valuation of the boat is neutralized and scored based on the time of falling into the water, the use time of the outboard motor, etc., and the final valuation is 580,000.

The price of a boat that fell into the water for about half a year was directly reduced by 220,000, which made Chu Mingcheng feel like he was losing money.

It’s just that the use time of his external machine is about twice as long as that of most people’s boats, and he goes to sea too frequently, so the price is also lower.

The handling fee of the shipyard is 5%, that is, the ship is sold at 580,000 yuan, and they can receive nearly 30,000 yuan in sales fees.

Of course, the price is not dead, Chuming City also has a low price, that is no less than 500,000.

The recovery price of the shipyard is 400,000 yuan. If the base price is lowered, plus the agency sales fee, he might as well sell the shipyard directly.

After everything was arranged, Zhang Ruomei sent the two of them to the airport and took off.

The first stop of Chuming City is the most livable southern city in Australia, Melbourne.

Below Melbourne is the island of Tasmania, where king crabs are produced.

Although emperor crabs are one of Chu Mingcheng's targets, he was not so crazy that he couldn't wait to go out to sea for crabs when he first came to Australia.

I came to Melbourne mainly because Noah, who was rescued before, lived here, and secondly, it is very suitable for tourism, so I simply came to this city first.

Originally, after Chu Mingcheng met Chen Chu at the end of the year, he thought about asking him about Australia.

As a result, they met Noah by accident, so there was obviously no need to contact Chen Chu again, after all, the two sides were not familiar with each other.

Noah is different, he is warm and hospitable enough, he has invited Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo to his house as guests, and even drank wine with him several times.

Therefore, the relationship between the two parties is quite harmonious.

Originally, Noah was still in China, taking care of his son studying abroad with his wife.

After learning that Chu Mingcheng was coming to Australia, he explained the situation to his wife, and then went back to his hometown in advance to act as a tour guide for the two of them.

As for his wife and son, they will have to wait until June to return home after the holiday.
