Andrei, meanwhile, was happily immersed in his own little world, completely unaware of the flood of insults pouring in from the live stream.
He held the hard-won fishing rod, his eyes sparkling with excitement, like a child who had finally received a long-awaited toy.
He kept muttering to himself, "Great! I just found a small lake yesterday. Now I can go fishing there. Maybe I can catch a lot of fat and delicious fish, and we'll have fresh fish soup tonight!"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hum a little tune. Although the tune was not very catchy, it was full of joy.
As he hummed, he suddenly remembered his mouth, which had lost several teeth, and how ridiculous it must look when he laughed.
But he didn't care at all and still couldn't wait to run towards the lake.
Chinese audiences were overjoyed to see this.
"Haha, Andrei's live stream is now my go-to show to watch while eating! Every time I see his shiny bald head, coupled with that infectious 'gee gee gee' laugh, I can eat two extra bowls of rice!"
"He went fishing with a smug look on his face, but I don't know if he'll catch anything. I think he'll probably just end up as a mosquito 'buffet' by the lake!"
"Since he can't get a rebate now anyway, we can treat it as a survival show; it's quite interesting."
While everyone was teasing Andrei, they were also incredibly proud of their country's athletes, Lu Fan and An Lan.
Meanwhile, on the vast, boundless sea, Ling Yue had just finished a thrilling underwater exploration.
The moment he broke through the water, he was like a warrior returning victorious from a mysterious underwater kingdom, radiating the light of victory.
His arm was raised high, and he held a large, menacing lobster tightly in his hand.
The lobster was unwilling to be caught and struggled to wave its pincers, trying to break free from Ling Yue's control, but all its efforts were in vain.
"Goodness, you're really causing trouble!"
Ling Yue chuckled and teased the lobster, his tone as if he were arguing with a mischievous old friend.
He freed one hand, quickly grabbed the gunwale, and cleanly and efficiently climbed onto his small boat that was swaying in the waves.
As soon as he boarded the ship, before Ling Yue could even catch his breath, he looked up and saw two dark figures appearing and disappearing among the waves in the distance.
He looked closely, and a surge of joy welled up inside him. He couldn't help but shout, "Hahaha, heaven is on my side!"
He rushed to the side of the boat in three strides and reached out to grab the two treasures.
"I've finally caught you!" he muttered as he carefully carried the coconuts onto the boat, as if they were rare treasures.

[Chinese player Ling Yue triggers 10,000x return]
【2 mature coconuts * 10 million】
Ling Yue knew that his freshwater reserves were running low, and these two coconuts were like a lifeline sent to him by God.
He eagerly grabbed the sharp stone axe and brandished it at one of the coconuts.
Then, he swung the stone axe with clean, swift movements, and with a "crack," a large opening was cleaved open in the coconut.
Sweet coconut juice gushed out from the opening, and Ling Yue, disregarding his image, picked up the coconut, put his mouth to it, and drank it in big gulps.
"This is amazing! It's the best food in the world!" he mumbled between sips, his satisfied expression as if he were enjoying a top-notch, luxurious feast.
After finishing his coconut juice, Ling Yue stood up, gazing at the boundless sea, his heart filled with emotion.
He knew that on this vast ocean, every new discovery could be a turning point for survival.
Discovering a coconut is like seeing a glimmer of light in the darkness.
He understood that coconuts could only grow near land, which meant the coast was probably not far away.
"Looks like I'll be busy tonight!" Ling Yue said as he began to methodically prepare to travel through the night.
He first carefully placed the lobster in a corner and tied it tightly with rope to prevent it from escaping.
Then, he carefully inspected the sails, adjusted the angle, and made sure to make the most of the sea breeze.
As night falls, the sea is shrouded in a mysterious darkness.
Ling Yue sat at the bow of the boat, his hands gripping the oars tightly, his eyes fixed on the front, not missing any possible signs.
The moonlight spilled onto the sea, making it shimmer and sparkle like countless diamonds.
Occasionally, a few seabirds would fly overhead, their clear calls breaking the silence of the night.
The lone boat bobbed up and down with the waves, making this journey undoubtedly incredibly lonely.
However, for an outstanding soldier like Ling Yue, this was just one of the simpler missions he had ever carried out.
Having participated in numerous operations against hostile foreign forces, the loneliness I feel now is insignificant compared to those life-or-death dangers.
The next day, under bright sunshine, Lu Fan and An Lan arrived at the beach full of energy to explore.
Recalling their previous harrowing experience, the two were still somewhat shaken and dared not go too far this time.
Once in the water, Lu Fan was like a nimble fish, darting happily through the colorful underwater world.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he spotted a huge squid swimming slowly in the distance, looking like a mysterious sea creature.
Lu Fan instantly became excited, silently approached, and then, with lightning speed, picked up the harpoon and threw it fiercely.
With a "whoosh," the harpoon pierced the squid with perfect accuracy. The squid struggled a few times before surrendering obediently.
"Haha, let's see where you can run now! We'll have grilled squid tonight!" Lu Fan laughed triumphantly, his voice echoing in the water.
Meanwhile, An Lan also reaped a great harvest by the nearby reef.
She found some sea cucumbers and sea urchins, which are rare delicacies.
"Lu Fan, look what I found!" An Lan excitedly waved her "trophy" and showed it to Lu Fan.
Just as they stood on the beach, happily counting their spoils, a wilderness survival announcement suddenly sounded.
[Wilderness Survival Announcement]
Chinese contestant Lu Fan triggers a 10,000-fold return.
Chinese athlete An Lan triggers a 10,000-fold return.
[A giant squid worth ten million]
Sea cucumber 61 million
Sea urchin 4 for 10 million
Oysters: 13 million
...
"This squid is huge!" An Lan exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the squid, which was half the height of a person, in Lu Fan's hand.
Lu Fan chuckled and said smugly, "Of course, look who caught me."
Seeing Lu Fan's smug look, An Lan rolled her eyes at him, but couldn't help but smile: "You're such a smooth talker!"
The two, laden with their bounty, hurried back in high spirits.
When they returned to the shelter with the seafood, Big Black, who had been quiet all along, suddenly became unusually irritable.
Its fur stood on end, and it roared incessantly toward the sea, its cries shattering the tranquil air.
Lu Fan and An Lan exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with doubt.
"What's wrong with Big Black? Has it discovered some danger?" An Lan asked anxiously.
Lu Fan frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "I guess it must have sensed something. Maybe there's something unexpected happening at the beach. I have to go check it out."
An Lan nodded without hesitation and said, "I'll go with you. It's better to have more people to look after each other."
As she spoke, she picked up her crossbow, just in case.
So, Lu Fan had Dahei lead the way, and the two of them rode on Lightning, speeding towards the sea.
Along the way, the wind whistled in their ears, and the thunderous sound of horses' hooves echoed, as if playing a tense and exciting prelude to an adventure.
