Chapter 289

~6 min read 1,037 words

Seeing Lin Yu nod, PD Yao and Song Yuqi finally set their minds at ease.

"Splash!"

Yet the next moment, Lin Yu dove straight into the water, and his figure vanished.

???

Damn it!

Not a single word this kid says is reliable!

With the aid of his diving goggles and the system, Lin Yu's visibility in the sea was almost no different from being on land; the surrounding environment was clear at a glance, fully within his sight!

【Ding】

【Groupers currently radar-located】

【3 meters】

【2 meters】

"Thwack!"

Three meters underwater, a 3-jin grouper was directly and fiercely impaled by Lin Yu with his fish spear.

【Congratulations to the host: Breath-holding time extended by 30 seconds】

【Leatherjacket fish discovered】

【Cuttlefish discovered】

【Sea bass discovered】

"........"

Holy cow! This breath-holding time can actually be topped up? Doesn't that mean as long as my stamina allows, I might be able to stay in the water forever, an infinite loop!

【Friendly reminder: The human limit for breath-holding is approximately 35 minutes】

Uh.

So there is a limit after all. Looks like I overthought it. Thanks to the system's reminder, otherwise these near-shore fish would probably all have met their end in the sea today.

Lin Yu: No need to cook today!

Sea fish: No need to cook me today!

Meanwhile, on the shore,

PD Yao and Song Yuqi looked at the calm, silent sea surface, their faces pale and their hands at a loss.

"Quick! Something's happened!"

"Hurry down and fish him out!"

The production team was so scared they immediately dispatched all the lifeguards; like dumplings being dropped into a pot, they splashed into the sea, throwing lifebuoys and swimming frantically toward the spot where Lin Yu had just dove.

It's been five minutes already!

Lin Yu doesn't even have an oxygen tank; can he still be alive? He's probably dead and gone!

The live stream room was also deathly silent; for a few seconds, there wasn't even a single comment.

"Holy crap! No way! Is the Blue Channel accident going to repeat itself? But this time it's Lin Yu; I can't accept this!"

"This... Lin Yu, it can't be!"

"A lump in my throat, pins and needles on my back; for a moment, I'm speechless."

"Eh!? I'm convinced! Isn't that Lin Yu strolling along the beach?"

"......"

The camera feed was filled with a deathly stillness.

"Oh my! Why won't Lin Yu listen to advice? Heaven bless him, he must be okay."

PD Yao's expression was solemn; he clutched the amulet on his chest tightly, muttering anxiously.

"Woooooo!"

Seeing this scene, Song Yuqi felt the world go black before her eyes and nearly fainted to the ground.

"......."

"Hmm?"

"What's going on? Why did all the lifeguards on the yacht jump into the water?"

Lin Yu, having returned from his stroll along the coastline, steadied the swaying Song Yuqi from behind, looking completely bewildered.

Could it be that they found treasure where he just dove? Are so many people fighting over it?

"Woooo, don't..."

"Lin Yu seems to have had an accident just now."

"Right! Lin Yu!"

"???"

"Holy crap!"

"When the hell did you come up?"

Song Yuqi and PD Yao stared at the Lin Yu beside them, then looked at the dozen lifeguards still frantically searching in the sea, as if they had seen a ghost.

"I came up a long time ago!"

"I even took a stroll over to the reef to see if there was anything to eat."

"Look! This is the loot!"

Lin Yu shook his heavy fish basket, beaming with pride.

"???"

Holy crap!

PD Yao and Song Yuqi looked into the fish basket, their eyes nearly popping out.

There was so much! So much that the basket could barely hold it all; a dazzling array of everything. Did this guy go on a massive shopping spree at the seafood market?

"Conch! Abalone! Lobster! And so many sea fish, my god!"

Song Yuqi covered her small mouth, instantly dumbfounded.

Didn't he just say that marine life is extremely hard to catch?

How is he supposed to explain this overflowing fish basket!

"Uh... Lin Yu, how did you do it?"

PD Yao was also stunned and speechless at the sight of the fully loaded basket.

Good grief!

You came here to run errands, didn't you!

You've caught every single creature in these near-shore waters, and there are over a dozen types without a single repeat?

"Nothing special, just practice makes perfect!"

"You guys should just be grateful for nature's bounty!"

Lin Yu shook the seawater off his clothes and pants leisurely, speaking unhurriedly.

Holy crap!

The way he's showing off, there's really no one else like him, is there?

The live stream room exploded.

"Holy crap! Did Lin Yu really just dive and catch all this? Good grief! He basically raided SpongeBob's house, didn't he!? Honestly, there are more species here than at the seafood shop downstairs from my place."

"Oh my mother! Lin Yu definitely has a side hustle; these skills are comparable to the three Ruan brothers. He really is a 'White Streak in the Waves'!"

"Before, when Lin Yu said he was the 'Sea King', I laughed. Now, I offer you my sincere apologies; it was I who was short-sighted! You truly are the Sea King."

"Good grief! Lin Yu's basket has more seafood than I eat in a year; I'm completely envious."

"No! Did none of you notice Lin Yu's breath-holding just now? I feel like he held it for a full three minutes! Otherwise, he couldn't have possibly swum out of the camera's view."

"Holy crap! Now that you mention it, that's true. How strong and monstrous must his lung capacity be to reach this level!"

"I'm on the national swimming team, and honestly, I don't consider myself Lin Yu's equal."

"......."

In the camera feed,

A rustling sound suddenly came from the dense forest.

"Lin Yu, we've found a great habitat, do you want to come take a look?"

"Lin Yu, we've just started the fire; how is your progress going?"

The team led by Yang Ying looking for a habitat and the fire-starting squad led by Sha Yi both walked quickly out of the dense forest.
