Chapter 62: The Fisherman Laboring For Money On Livestream

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

After logging on to the game, all the players walked out of the Mansion of the Dead in surges as they headed toward the Underworld Sea region.

This could only be attributed to the anticipation created inside the players’ hearts from the update notice and expansion pack that described and illustrated the Underworld Sea region.

Meanwhile, on the official website’s livestream platform, the number of viewers on one of the livestream channels was growing rapidly, catching the attention and curiosity of Lu Wu.

“Build your personal raft, become a fisherman, labor for soul coins to buy a ship!”

On the channel, two players relying on the resources from the beach were making a tutorial on how to build a raft, teaching players in extreme detail the method to do so. Since most players could not afford to buy Specter Ships, a lot of them were actually learning and observing very earnestly.

By chopping down trees to form suitably sized wooden columns and using vines to replace rope in tying the wood together, these two players had built a simple raft within the span of three hours.

Looking at their finished product, the two players smiled.

“Everyone, now that the first step of laboring for money in order to buy a Specter Ship is done, let’s head out to sea!”

Thereafter, these two players spent 10 soul coins on buying fishing equipment and bait before pushing their raft off to the Underworld Sea, using wooden oars to paddle them toward the high seas.

From the comments:

“It looks so crude… why do I get the feeling that this raft will probably fall apart with a single wave?”

“My two brothers, I hope your fishing endeavor end up favorably, and that you end up earning enough soul coins to buy a Specter Ship. Let’s work for it together!”

“Hope you get a good harvest! If you guys fish up a Spiritual Fish, I’ll buy it!”

“To be honest, rather than use this kind of raft, wouldn’t it be easier to just go diving. I mean, you wouldn’t even need fishing equipment like that, it saves money (funny)”

“What do you do if you meet a monster at sea? (frightened)”

“I have a deep fear of the sea and there’s actually monsters in this one, I will not set sail unless it’s in a ship! Over my dead body!”

With the well-wishes of the other players, the two players paddled their way out to sea.

An hour or so later, land had already faded away from sight and was hardly visible. The two players then stopped paddling and took out their equipment to begin fishing.

As time passed, the creel on the players’ raft began filling up with fish. Yet, although these two players were very experienced at fishing at sea, they seemed to not have the luck to match it. They had spent around two hours fishing, but they had not caught a single Spiritual Fish.

At this moment, the fishing rod began shaking again, and the player, Ba Mu’s face lit up with eagerness, his hand slowly reeling in the line.

However, this time, he did not reel it in as smoothly as he did the past few times. It seemed as though the fish that had been hooked was especially vicious and was violently struggling to get away with surprisingly enormous strength.

The situation made many watching players realize that this was probably the moment they had been waiting for.

At the same time, Ba Mu’s face was also shining with glee, but his glee soon turned to anxiety as he realized that this fish was just too strong and no matter how hard he was tugging and pulling, he could not reel in the fish. At this point, the raft had also begun to move further toward the ocean with increasing speed because of the force exerted by the fish.

“Bro, help me out here, we’ve got a big one!” faced with such a tough struggle, Ba Mu could hardly hold on any longer and was quick to seek help from his companion.

Subsequently, the both of them began pulling together, holding on to the fishing rod stubbornly as they leaned backwards, locked in a battle of strength with the fish.

From the comments:

“Wow, a live version of the old man and the sea.”

“You’ve definitely caught a shark this time!!!”

“If you all continue moving like this, I’m afraid you won’t be able to find your way back, brother!”

“Hang in there, work for that Specter Ship! Imagine the wondrous future, just hang in there!”

“Maybe it’s a small-sized sea monster (funny)”

“I bet it’s a Spiritual Fish!”

It was quite obvious that Ba Mu and his little companion were just no match for the creature at the bottom of the sea. At this point in time, their faces were already red from their efforts and their hands that were holding the fishing rod were also trembling.

Hence, Ba Mu grit his teeth and simply spent two soul coins at the shop to buy two bottles of endurance tonic in recognition of the situation they were in. Taking turns to gulp down the tonic, they then continued their battle of strength.

Both of them felt somewhat better after taking the tonic, but the battle of strength had no end in sight and they were now floating further and further away from land. In fact, they could no longer see any land at all. All they had now were directions on the map and even so, they were still very confused as to where they currently were.

This battle of strength lasted a full five hours. Most of the watching players who went off for a meal had come back only to see that these two people were still trying to reel in the fish.

Just as the two players were on the edge of giving up, the force pulling on the fishing rod was suddenly released, making them almost fall backward into the sea.

While the two players blustered in confusion as to what had just happened, a large red fish broke through the ocean’s surface and leapt up, splashing waves that glittered colorfully under the sunlight before diving back in.

The two of them hurried to pull on the fishing rod again as both their faces lit up in joy.

This was because in the instant that the fish had leapt out of the water, they had seen the attributes of this fish.

[Hawthorn Fish (Sea Spirit level)]: Sea Spirit level fish with gentle qualities, earns 10 to 30 additional points of related attributes after ingestion, also provides a small probability of oceanic capability comprehension

(Note: option to sell to shop for 200 soul coins)

In the comments:

“Damn, you’ve struck gold, you’ve hit the jackpot!”

“Well I’ll be damned, you guys actually reeled in a Sea Spirit level fish. Thankfully, it’s gentle, otherwise you guys wouldn’t have been able to defeat it! (funny)”

“What’s that note underneath the attribute section? Option to sell to shop? I fucking regret selling my Netherworld Pearl to the shop, I mean, the selling price for it on the market now is 150 soul coins!!!”

“I agree, I didn’t know it before but selling to the shop is a great loss.”

“I’ll buy this fish for 250! Sell it to me! Sell it to me!”

“I’ll have it for 300!”

“Sell it to our Myth Guild, our chairman has soul coins, but we can buy it with cash. You name the price.”

The comment area suddenly burst with discussion at the sight of a Sea Spirit level Spiritual Fish and there were already offers for purchase and negotiation. Seeing this, Ba Mu and his companion were once again filled with determination to reel in this Hawthorn Fish.

Although it was of a gentle nature, the Sea Spirit level Hawthorn Fish was extremely strong and it was still very hard for the two of them to handle it.

Yet as time began to pass, the Hawthorn Fish’s energy started depleting and the raft that was being pulled on slowed down as the resistance to the fishing rod reduced as well. Noting the change, hope was reignited within the both of them and they hastened to pull on the fishing rod, wanting to bring the Hawthorn Fish onboard the raft.

Just as they expected, there were only a few bursts of resistance when they reeled it in as the Hawthorn Fish had already expended all its energy struggling to swim away.

With victory so close in sight, Ba Mu and his companion both smiled.

However, exactly as the Hawthorn Fish was about to be pulled out the water, a dark shadow of something about a thousand meters wide appeared beneath the raft.

As this gigantic shadow floated upward rapidly on the livestream, all of the watching players held their breaths.

When the Hawthorn Fish finally broke the water’s surface, large jaws appeared from the depths of the water to swallow both the raft and the Hawthorn Fish whole.

Immediately, the two players grappled around unsteadily, but as a wholly dominant energy surrounded them, their bodies were instantaneously ripped apart.
