He was going for the fis.h.i.+ng skill, the fis.h.i.+ng skill was very special for it only had 5 levels and for each level the player needed to travel to a master fisherman in their region. The master fishermen will then give the player a task and if they complete it they would be able to level up the fis.h.i.+ng skill. What many people didn"t know that once a player leaves beginner town and go to their region of choice there would only be four master fisherman in the selected region.

To get all five levels of the skill a player must learn the fis.h.i.+ng skill at the beginner town first, which was exactly what Xinya planned to do. The fis.h.i.+ng skill is very useful, besides catching fish for cooking, you can also catch plants for potions and rarely other items such as jewelry which a player can sell to an NCP or trigger a high-grade quest, but for that the player doesn"t need all five levels of the skill, getting to level 4 would be fine. The reason Xinya wanted to be able to get to level 5 is because of the unique skill he will receive after he gains level five of the skill.

This skill is called Underwater Fis.h.i.+ng, this skill allows a player to breathe underwater for a period of time, it doesn"t sound exciting but it truly is. Underwater is the most unexplored part of the game and there are many things to find beneath the water such as treasure, hidden caves, etc. People have tried exploring under places with the swimming skill but that skill only lets a player breathe underwater for a very short period of time, longer if they have high enough stamina. The swimming skill also only allows a player to go to a certain depth.

With underwater fis.h.i.+ng not only would Xinya be able to go to the deepest depths but he would also be able to make equipment to allow others to join him. Which he probably would only tell to people he really trusted, since the people would only be able to use the equipment if he was with them and if people find out, some guilds might come and bother him with wanting to recruit him.

Xinya walked through the craggy old forest until he reached a clearing. Surrounded by the forest on all sides was a clear blue lake, that glinted beautifully in the sunlight, and sitting on a st.u.r.dy rock that was right next to the water was an old man fis.h.i.+ng. Wearing just a simple outfit of pants, a s.h.i.+rt, and a straw hat, the man had the presence of a fis.h.i.+ng legend.

"Excuse me, sir?" Xinya said, calling out to the man.

The old man just calmly put his finger to his lips signaling Xinya to be quiet, after a few more minutes the man"s fis.h.i.+ng line was pulled. Quickly the old man struggled to reel the fish in, seeing that he was fighting a losing battle he looked over at Xinya.

"Hey boy, what your doing just standing there come help me!" The old man shouted gruffly.

Quest has been created. The old fisherman has been trying to catch Old Betsy the giant Salmon that lives in this lake. The fisherman has been trying to catch her for over 10 years if you help him you will be greatly rewarded.

Xinya rushed over to where the old man was standing and grabbed ahold of the fis.h.i.+ng rod. Gripping it with all of his might he pulled on it along with the old man, trying to pull up the fish that was struggling to get free just below the water surface. The fight was hard, Xinya was pulling as hard as he could, water was splas.h.i.+ng all around them, the fish appearing and disappearing from view so fast that Xinya could hardly keep track of it. It took what seemed like hours but only minutes had past when they finally were able to pull the fish from the water. It was a beautiful sight. The size of the fish was extraordinary, it was a great catch. The old man thought so too if his teary eyes were any indication.

"Young man, how can I ever thank you. I have been trying to catch that fish for years, It was my white whale. Now that I caught her I"m finally satisfied." The old man said gleefully.

Quest Completed.

Learned: Fis.h.i.+ng Skill

Fis.h.i.+ng: a useful skill to use when catching fish in the water. A player can easily start fis.h.i.+ng with Fis.h.i.+ng Rod and Bait, but you need more than that to fish even better. You must know how to adequately attach the Bait, have the judgment to choose a good place and have the patience to wait until a fish is caught once all the preparations are done. Once fish is caught, you must control the single fis.h.i.+ng line and quickly s.n.a.t.c.h it up as the fish will challenge you with its strength. This is why many people refer to experienced fishermen as the masters of life. To level up this skill please find these masters of life to help you.

The old man preceded to pack up the giant fish preparing to go but before leaving he walked over to Xinya and handed him a green fis.h.i.+ng rod.
