I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier -
Chapter 58: The Five-Meter-Long Giant Python
Chapter 58: Chapter 58: The Five-Meter-Long Giant Python
"Of course, in most cases, the fish in the water are exhausted of their strength and eventually dragged to the shore."
"That’s also why you see that when those fishing experts land the fish after playing them, the fish that are dragged to the shore are belly-up."
"It’s a sign that the fish are out of energy."
Zhou Tao didn’t go into the more professional fishing knowledge as he did with his colleague.
For instance, when sea fishing,
to prevent the fish from breaking the line with a burst of strength, anglers would let out the line appropriately to gradually wear out the stamina of the fish in the water.
Although Zhou Tao did not explain in detail, his colleague understood at this point what Ye Chen in the live stream room was doing.
So, he exclaimed, "I didn’t see it coming; this kid’s got quite some strength!"
Zhou Tao very much agreed with his colleague’s opinion: "Indeed, this kid has not only great strength, but his endurance also far surpasses that of an ordinary person."
"How come we didn’t notice it before..."
What they didn’t know was.
The reason why Ye Chen had such great strength had to do with the system upgrade.
As early as when the system advanced to level two, Ye Chen clearly felt a subtle change in his body.
His vital energy improved, and he had more physical strength.
Now, by catching these outrageous things, Ye Chen’s system had reached level three.
As a result, he could clearly feel his body had been strengthened.
Even his Five Senses were greatly enhanced compared to before.
It was because of this that Ye Chen turned down the help of fellow anglers nearby.
He decided to rely on his own strength to pull this fish out of the water and onto the shore!
After all, this was also the first live fish he caught in this world after his transmigration!
Indeed...
Fishing is something that cannot depend on anything.
Although his infuriating system is called Super Fishing King, it only grants some ludicrous abilities.
Like increasing the chances of fishing up weapons, upping the odds of hooking bodies, raising the likelihood of catching snakes...
And even the only game-changing skill, Feed Master, couldn’t be used on fish...
One has to rely on oneself; if you’re not up for it, don’t blame the uneven road!
With this thought, Ye Chen was all fired up.
He had caught such a behemoth without using any of the system’s abilities.
This could only mean that his fishing skills were outstanding!
With such talent, how could he be defeated by a fish in the reservoir?
With this in mind, Ye Chen took a horse stance, shifting his center of gravity downward.
After aligning his waist and stance, he gripped the fishing rod in his hands and began to try moving backward, ready to pull this large and strong fish out of the water!
Just like this, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ye Chen began to slowly move backward.
One step...
Two steps...
Three steps...
Although slow, Ye Chen’s steps were stable.
Even at this moment, Ye Chen didn’t resemble a fisherman but rather a martial artist.
With every step backward, it was as if he was stamping deep pits into the ground.
Of course.
Compared to the spectators and the fans in the live stream room,
Ye Chen himself could clearly feel the strength of the fish in the water waning.
In other words, unless something unexpected happened, he was definitely going to land this fish.
With that thought, Ye Chen let out a sigh and didn’t forget to glance back at the new agricultural three-wheeled vehicle he had just bought.
He hadn’t relied on any system; it was purely through his own effort that he caught his first fish. All he hoped was not to be disappointed!
The catch must weigh at least 200 pounds and measure up to 3.5 meters in length!
After hooking the fish, he planned to place it in the carriage at the back of the three-wheeler.
When he went home, he’d stomp on the throttle, let the three-wheeler roar loudly, and draw people’s attention.
He would show the mortals the frightening fruit of his labor, and have them admire the style of himself as the King of Fishing!
Thinking of this, Ye Chen’s body surged with an endless stream of strength.
He shouted angrily and quickened his steps backward.
After retreating about seven or eight meters, he used all his strength to yank the fishing rod fiercely!
The surface of the water at the shore splashed again, as if the behemoth was making its final struggle.
Inside the police car!
Zhou Tao was fixated, his gaze locked on the water surface on the screen.
Finally...
When he saw the behemoth that Ye Chen had caught.
The corner of his eyes twitched fiercely.
Subconsciously, he pounded a fist on the steering wheel.
Following a dull thud, this was the first time he swore since becoming an officer.
"Holy shit! What the hell is this!"
Meanwhile...
The anglers on the shore, as well as the viewers in the live stream room.
When they saw what Ye Chen had caught, their expressions were beyond disbelief.
Holy crap!
The catch that shocked Zhou Tao to such an extent was naturally not a fish!
Simply put, if Ye Chen had caught a 300-pound carp, Zhou Tao would have just exclaimed at the kid’s good fortune for landing such a huge fish.
But what Ye Chen caught was not a fish at all!
It was a smooth, shiny thing, precisely, a Water Python!
Due to the screen barrier, Zhou Tao couldn’t precisely estimate the length of the Water Python.
However, its length was obviously more than three-quarters of Ye Chen’s fishing rod!
If Zhou Tao remembered correctly, Ye Chen’s fishing rod was 5.2 meters.
That snake he just caught...
It must have been close to 5 meters in length, right?
Perhaps because of the struggle in the water moments before, the Water Python’s mouth was tangled up by Ye Chen’s fishing line.
Therefore, it involuntarily had its head above the water surface, and its nearly five-meter body could only coil at the shore, looking extremely shocking!
At the same time, it might have been his own illusion.
But the Water Python seemed angered at being caught by Ye Chen, its pair of eyes looking extremely sinister and terrifying.
Looking at this python, Zhou Tao subconsciously thought of another giant python that kept residents of Treasure District on edge - the one that remained hidden in the artificial lake and not yet captured.
Obviously, the giant python in Treasure District was larger and longer in size and length than this one!
But Zhou Tao had only seen the silhouette of that giant python on the surveillance monitor, plus it was at night and the camera wasn’t very clear, with a certain distance from the shore.
So at that time when he saw the giant python, his heart didn’t stir much.
But this Water Python was different.
Firstly, it was caught by Ye Chen, and moreover, it was caught during a live broadcast!
In fact, when the Water Python stirred up the water, everyone thought it would be a fish.
So when it surfaced, the magnitude of shock it brought to the audience goes without saying.
