Chapter 389: Chapter 195: Coconut Snail_3

Of course, this was assuming both were quite fatty; perhaps most people were more interested in the novelty than in the actual taste.

After dinner, as night had fully fallen, Lin Yang and the others planned to stay on the island, so they rested for a while before taking items like tents onto the island aboard an inflatable boat.

After landing on the island and setting up the tents, it was still early, not even eight o’clock yet, and Lin Yang decided to take a walk around the island.

He held a stabilizer and started a live broadcast.

Although it was already night, the weather was good and the moonlight spilled onto the beach, making the scenery quite pleasant.

Many viewers were immediately captivated by the nocturnal beach scenery as they entered the live stream. Lin Yang aimed the camera at the sea in front of him, where the water, under the moonlight, resembled a sea of shattered mirrors, reflecting stark white light.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the camera captured seawater near the shore emitting a faint glow!

"Wow, what is that? Why is there light in the water?"

"Could it be haunted? This deserted island where the streamer is looks pretty spooky."

"I believe in science, the glowing seawater near the island coast must be due to a chemical reaction."

"It doesn’t look like a reflection of the moonlight, though. What’s the deal with these fluorescent lights?"

Although the glowing beach seen through the broadcast was eerie, it was visually very beautiful.

Lin Yang glanced at the chat inadvertently and also noticed the anomaly by the seaside.

He wasn’t afraid at all of the paranormal theories being discussed in the chat room and laughed as he told the viewers, "I’ll take you to investigate what exactly is causing the glow on the beachside."

As he approached slowly, the fluorescence on the sandy waves became more pronounced. The light was a deep blue color and from a distance, it looked like a large expanse.

But upon closer inspection, it was clear that the patches of blue light were made up of countless tiny blue fluorescences, akin to numerous blue fireflies clinging to the seawater or the sand.

This phenomenon had been discovered in many places; Lin Yang had seen news of such ’fluorescent beaches’ in certain areas of our country more than once before.

"If I’m not mistaken, these lights are likely from a type of algae in the sea. I’m not exactly sure which kind, but it’s certainly not fatal."

Actually, if we’re talking about it, seaweed and marine algae could also be considered aquatic products. Lin Yang had a wealth of aquatic encyclopedia knowledge, and he wondered if he could identify which type of algae it was.

When he approached the shore and looked at the glowing waves bobbing with the surf...

Soon enough, he recognized the true nature of these ’fluorescent waves’; they were in fact night glow algae, just as he had previously guessed.

These clusters of night glow algae, floating with the tide, made it seem as though the water itself was glowing.

The appearance of the ’fluorescent beach’ caused the popularity of Lin Yang’s live stream to soar, quickly breaking the 5000 online viewer mark. To achieve this effect with a sudden nighttime broadcast was quite impressive.

This also indirectly showed that beautiful and mystical sights always pique people’s curiosity.

"If marine creatures eat this fluorescent water, could it trigger mutations?"

"It’s so beautiful, can the host get a little closer? We want a closer look at the fluorescent beach."

In the livestream, clusters of night glow algae gathered by the shore, where blue patches of light formed waves of fluorescent colors, reflecting off the starry sea under the night sky.

The sky was filled with numerous stars, and the clusters of night glow algae on the sea surface resembled blue sprites dancing with the waves. Occasionally, a sea breeze would stir, and when the water mixed with night glow algae hit the rocks, the brightness became even more noticeable.

Lin Yang walked barefoot on the shallow seashore, and soon, his feet were surrounded by many night glow algae, looking as if his feet were emitting blue light.

"Wow, even Master Lin’s feet are glowing."

"Host, isn’t it harmful for your skin to walk barefoot and come into contact with these glowing things?"

"Wow, amazing, as soon as the host approached the shore, those glowing things began to gather towards him. Has the host’s attractiveness spread to the ocean already?"

"Is there anyone who knows science that can explain the reasons why these seawaters glow?"

The audience in the livestream was full of question marks at this moment, wondering why those glowing waters were all converging towards Lin Yang’s direction?

On the beach under the night sky, he now looked as if he was enveloped by a swarm of stars, an incredibly magical scene.

This wondrous and beautiful sight soon caught Yue’er’s attention.

She had also been walking behind Lin Yang on the beach, and she was utterly astonished when she saw this magical scene: "Wow, it’s so beautiful! Why did the sea turn blue?"

"It’s all because of the night glow algae, quite magical, you see...."

Lin Yang pointed to his feet where the gathered night glow algae, like thousands of fireflies, were burrowing into the seawater and crowding around his feet.

It was undeniable that this was a rather marvelous experience.

"Brother Yang, what’s going on? It’s absolutely incredible."

Lin Yang explained with a smile, "These glowing things in the water are actually a type of algae called Fluorescent Algae, also known as Bioluminescent Worm. They are single-celled organisms."

"Whenever the cells of night glow algae get stimulated, they emit light. At night on the sea, as boats pass over the water surface, the paddles create sparks, while the stern trail leaves a long glowing stripe. Waves crashing against the shore also create phosphorescent, twinkling spray - all because of the effect of Fluorescent Algae."

He then looked up and said to the audience, "These night glow algae can proliferate excessively on the beach due to an abundance of nutrients in surrounding waters. If they reproduce too rapidly, it’s not good for the marine environment. Many people must have heard of the ’red tide’ phenomenon? Red tides are a harmful result of algae blooms."

Behind beautiful phenomena often lies a not-so-beautiful essence, and the large-scale proliferation of night glow algae is a case in point.

"Red tide? I only know about red bean ice cream, what’s a red tide?"

"My uncle once raised fish; in the pond, the most feared thing was an algae bloom. Too much algae covering the water surface poses a significant threat to aquatic animals."

"It seems like we learned about red tides in junior high school, but I’ve almost forgotten about it now."

The dangers mentioned by the viewers in the livestream were manifold. Algae blooms covering the surface of the sea could block sunlight, lowering the water temperature and reducing oxygen levels. Excessive algae could enter the respiratory organs of aquatic life, leading to mortality and decay. Nutrients from dead organisms could then feed further algae blooms, creating a vicious cycle.

Therefore, red tides are a very terrifying phenomenon for the marine environment.
