I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 41: Trolls Bragging

Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Trolls Bragging

"Don’t forget to follow me, this afternoon I will expose Ye Chen’s scam for you all!"

"East Sea’s King of Fishing" kept repeating these phrases, drawing the attention of quite a few viewers.

Those regulars from last night’s stream, where Ye Chen fished up a corpse, need no further explanation.

With the police and the deceased’s relatives showing up, could the fishing up of a corpse be fake?

Even after being humiliated and left swollen-faced from yesterday, "East Sea’s King of Fishing" still shamelessly kept up his act.

Thus, in the live stream room, the loyal fans began to attack "East Sea’s King of Fishing" all around, with some hot-headed guys even hurling a barrage of insults at every female member of his family.

But, as the saying goes, with no shame comes invincibility.

Some of the newcomers to the live stream really believed in what "East Sea’s King of Fishing" was saying.

After all, some of them didn’t get to see the complete video of last night’s stream.

Besides, it was indeed hard to believe Ye Chen’s claim that he used mysticism to fish.

Apart from those people,

Of course, there were still many who were curious about how exactly "East Sea’s King of Fishing" planned to unveil Ye Chen’s sham.

In no time, a good number of viewers started following the "East Sea’s King of Fishing" account in the live stream room.

Clearly, he was not just there to increase his followers, but he was blatantly poaching fans now.

After all, like Ye Chen, he too was an outdoor fishing streamer.

These fans could bring benefits to Ye Chen, and naturally, they could do the same for him.

At this moment, "East Sea’s King of Fishing" on the other end of the phone couldn’t stop grinning.

In a residential building not far from Seyves Reservoir,

a tanned, middle-aged fat man, watching his count of followers rise continuously on his phone, narrowed his eyes into slits.

This Ye Chen, newly entered into the world of live streaming, had no idea of its depths!

Previously, when Ye Chen didn’t have many followers, he hadn’t set up any moderators in his live stream room.

Therefore, he could spam Ye Chen’s live stream room all he wanted without being muted by anyone.

Even if he was muted, he didn’t care since who doesn’t have a few alternate accounts?

As for those fans arguing for Ye Chen and insulting him on Ye Chen’s behalf, "East Sea’s King of Fishing" didn’t give a damn.

The key point was that "East Sea’s King of Fishing" knew that the police station wasn’t like other places.

It absolutely did not allow streamers to live stream with their phones.

So even if the gun that Ye Chen fished out was real, there would be no evidence left later on.

And even if proved, so what?

He was just leading the rhythm in someone else’s live stream room; was that illegal?

Moreover, what "East Sea’s King of Fishing" wanted was just followers; in their line of work, more followers meant more money.

Seeing Ye Chen, who had fewer followers than him before, become overnight sensation and make tons of money was even worse than forcing him to eat shit.

Therefore...

"East Sea’s King of Fishing" planned to disgust Ye Chen a bit while also gaining some followers for himself.

As for the video he bragged about in the live stream room that would "expose" Ye Chen,

he would go and shoot it soon...

Alongside the shore of Seyves Reservoir.

As expected, Ye Chen received a prompt from the system.

"Congratulations, host, for unlocking the achievement [Weapon Capture], reward: one achievement mystery box."

Ye Chen didn’t hesitate at all and immediately opened this achievement mystery box.

"Congratulations, host, for unlocking a new skill [Weapon Capture: When fishing, increases the chances of catching weapons]."

Ye Chen then opened the system interface.

[Name: Ye Chen]

[Level: 2]

[Experience: 230/500]

[Skills: Evil-Repelling and Calamity-Transforming, Never Fish in Vain, Corpse Capture]

[Unlocked Achievements: ...]

[Unlocked Achievements: Rotten Fish Taste Good, Night Fishing for Corpses]

[Predictive Ability will be activated after the next fishing attempt...]

Achievements:

[Evil-Repelling and Calamity-Transforming: Helps the host to defy fate and turns bad luck into good fortune.]

[Never Fish in Vain: Guarantees the host will catch something after fishing for over half an hour each time, and increases the catch, ensuring the host will never come up empty-handed.]

[Corpse Capture: Includes but is not limited to human corpses, increases the probability for the host to catch corpses.]

[Water Snake Fisher: Grants the ability to fish for Water Snakes and increases the probability of catching them...]

[Weapon Capture: Increases the probability of catching weapons while fishing.]

Ye Chen was speechless.

Is this system freaking toxic or what? Aside from fish, it makes me catch all sorts of things?

What’s the use of fishing up weapons, huh?

Am I actually supposed to, as that cop said last night, catch planes and cannons and contribute to the country?

Even if I do catch them, they can’t be sold for money, isn’t that a pointless hassle?

Fishing, on the other hand, is different. Whatever fish I catch, they are mine.

I can sell them, or I can eat them myself.

Grilled fish, braised fish, fried fish... I can have them cooked any way I like.

Right now, Ye Chen really wanted to catch a fish.

Even just a juvenile would be fine!

But speaking of frustrations, Ye Chen wasn’t that exasperated.

Let’s not mention anything else, just take his live streaming room, for instance; the gift bombardments and the barrage comments in there could very much be described as taking off.

Watching his live stream yesterday in the live stream room, he already made several thousand bucks.

And today, the number of people in the live stream room has increased several-fold compared to yesterday, and his earnings increased multiple times as well.

Ye Chen also noticed "East Sea’s King of Fishing" who was bandwagoning in the live stream room.

Ye Chen had an impression of this "East Sea’s King of Fishing."

He, like Ye Chen, was also a fishing streamer in Jiang City.

Jiang City is only so large, coupled with the fact their fishing circle was just this group of people, so Ye Chen naturally recognized him.

After glancing at the content "East Sea’s King of Fishing" posted in the comments, Ye Chen understood.

This guy was trying to establish his presence here, leeching off his own followers.

However, he didn’t immediately block him.

Ye Chen was very clear about the situation, let’s just let him bark there for a bit.

"East Sea’s King of Fishing" dares to create such a fuss so brazenly, obviously green with envy over his own earnings.

Even if he was blocked, he could just create an alt and continue creating trouble in his live stream room.

As for revealing secrets, just let him reveal them!

Ye Chen knew that this so-called revelation was actually a double-edged sword.

In the process of exposing Ye Chen’s supposed "scams," "East Sea’s King of Fishing" was inadvertently advertising for him.

If Ye Chen bothered with such a guy, he would be playing right into his hands, so he simply chose to ignore it.

Before, Ye Chen might have opted to swallow his anger.

But the Ye Chen of today, blessed with the system and such high popularity, has quietly taken note of "East Sea’s King of Fishing."
