Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Ding!

[You have equipped all [Bond Items]! The [Bond Items] Set Effect has been activated.]

[Set Effect of [Bond Items]: [HP & MP +500] [STR & INT +300] [VIT & WIS +200] [Bond Resonance (A)]

[Bond Resonance (A)]: [By activating this Skill, you can connect with NPC whom your bonds are the strongest, channeling 25% of their Stats and half of their Skills to yourself, and vice versa for 10 Minutes: Cooldown: 24 Hours.]

At the end, once I equipped everything together, I got a message saying all items had a special Set Effect, and it is pretty good as well! With this I am all set for now. Especially because whenever my friends log-in back to BNLO, we'll be taking a trip to the Ashen Mountains, where the Dwarf Kingdom resides.

This is the place where there's recent information about some sort of new Boss, an Evil Dragon, and where we can find the most Dark, Fire, and Earth Attribute Materials for Rita, Mark, and Lily's Physiques.

Well, until then, I might as well do some other work too. Let's first level up some Skills I want to see for myself…

Ding!

[You have exchanged 36 Skill Points!]

[The [Crafting: Lv1] Skill has reached Level 10!]

[The [Fishing: Lv1] Skill has reached Level 10!]

[You have yet to acquire enough knowledge and comprehension to allow these Skills to Evolve.]

[Crafting: Lv10 (Max Level)]

Grants access to the ability to craft items in-game through the usage of materials obtained from all sorts of sources. Items can be crafted using Crafting Recipes that can be acquired from certain NPC, other players, or as Rare Drops from Monsters.

Crafting Recipes can also be created as you randomly make items, every player can make their own recipes and create their unique items! Increase your Crafting Proficiency and Recipe Making Ability with each Skill Level. The Alchemy and the Metallurgy Skills are recommended to go along with this Skill.

It is possible to register Recipes after creating brand-new items, items created using already registered recipes will have a 50% chance to increase their quality Rank by a bit, and may gain special, additional bonus effects and abilities.

Additionally, enhances the Quality of Created Items by +100% and enhances the innate effects of created items by +50%.

Crafting has the same new effects that Alchemy acquired, I guess both Skills are very similar in the sense of creating items, and can even be used together, which is what I've found out higher level crafters do to make their amazing equipment, which can later sell for a ton of money… Maybe I could do this too, huh?

And then…

[Fishing: Lv10 (Max Level)]

Grants access to the ability to fish in game. Real life abilities can be transferred to the game, however. As the Skill level increases, you become better at fishing and to apply fishing techniques, while you have a higher chance to catch fishes of higher qualities and rarities. Increases damage dealt to Water-type monsters by +50%.

Additionally, while Fishing, increases Damage Dealt to the Fish by +5000 and Enhances Fishing Proficiency by +5000. Targets of the Fishing Skill have their maximum defenses lowered by -25%, so Fishing can become faster. Fishing Speed is enhanced by +200%, and there's a 25% chance of increasing the quality of the Fish you catch.

Oh, its description is quite similar to the Mining Skill as well, I guess they're somewhat similar in what they're about, at the end catching a fish is like fighting a monster underwater with your fishing rod and all, so it makes some sense, Mining could be said to be like… fighting rocks and stuff, I guess.

Hmmm, I feel like fishing now.

"Hey girls, wanna go hang out in the Spirit Lake?" I asked. "Let's go catch some fishes!"

"Oh? Sure!" Lily said happily.

"Well, I guess the day is quite beautiful, fishing doesn't sound so bad." Nieve said.

"Okay! I'll fish too! I want to catch a big, huge fish!" Florie said.

"Fufu, it has been a while since I've fished myself, but seeing you two excited has given me a bit of motivation to go, alright." Titania nodded.

Like that, we all teamed up as fishing gals, and went into the Spirit Lake, the largest lake in the Forest of Beginnings, which was located right behind my giant Tree Body, it has a bit of shade sometimes in the day, but it usually receives the sun directly.

My familiars were of course with us, all of them looked much bigger, taller, and stronger than ever before. But why? Well, yesterday all of them evolved into their stronger forms, looking almost regal.

Slowly, they're becoming something like divine guardians of the forest, and Belle had already attained some sort of divine power within her lightning skills, though it still all a mystery if they're connected to such divine beings they have begun to represent.

"Alright, let's see…" I said, quickly spreading my own arms into several sticks made out of spirit wood, and taking a few other materials, such as fur, threads, and tiny pieces of crystal and metal. I swiftly crafted some fishing rods for everyone.

Ding!

[You've crafted [Spirit Wood Magic Fishing Rod (C+++ Grade)] x4!]

[The Recipe has been registered.]

[You earned some Crafting Proficiency.]

"Alright! There you go everyone, let's fish!" I said happily, using my own hand and transforming it into a pseudo fishing rod and pushing it into the lake.

As for everyone else, I gave them some tiny shrimps to use as bait.

Suddenly, the second I placed my own bait which was a small flower with the shape of a worm underwater, the water stated to move rapidly everywhere…

And a large shadow, at least the same size as mine, emerged from the lake's depths!

SPLAAASH!

"GLUOOP!"

"Uwaahaah! It is huge!" I said in surprise, beginning to push it into the shore. "Uugh! You're not getting away!"

The huge catfish-like fish started pushing back down into the lake, but I didn't let it get away, employing all my strength and the power of the Fishing Skill, a blue-colored aura surged from my hands into the fishing rod.

FLAAAASH!
