Chapter 2: Sashimi
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
David had considered everything that was being raised in the livestream.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to build a house, nor was he unable to build a house.
Instead, he had carefully done a careful assessment. His body was incredibly thin and frail. In fact, it could even be called debilitated.
If he were to spend all his energy on building a house, he would not have the energy to do anything else afterwards.
Therefore, he had to conserve his energy and solve the most important problem—eating and drinking.
This body might not have eaten for a long time. He had only been moving about for a short while, and he already felt exhausted.
As for how to get food, he recalled everything he had just done and had found a pattern.
Hence he found a long, thin wooden stick, peeled open one of the vines, pulled off the frays and tied it to the stick.
He then found another small unknown fruit that was the size of a pea and tied it to the rope.
When the people in the livestream saw his actions, it instantly exploded.
“What’s he doing? Is he going to fish?”
“Fishing? Did you get something wrong?”
“If he can catch fish this way, I’ll eat three fishing rods.”
“Haha, the person above, you said it yourself. If he really catches a fish, will you really eat it?”
“Did you guys forget that he is a hidden boss? Who knows he might really be able to do something that we can’t.”
“Haha, once is fine, but twice? Don’t you trust others too easily?”
David couldn’t see the livestream. If he could see the comments there, he would realize that the audience was about to be divided into two factions because of him.
One group refused to believe in his methods, while the other held a kind of anticipation.
David was ready and headed for the beach.
It was two in the afternoon, and the sun was blazing on the beach. He found a suitable spot to fish.
Which was also closer to the deeper waters and threw his line in.
The fishing line sank quickly, then stayed still.
David stood unmoved, too. The sun shone on him. It was too hot.
After a while, he couldn’t take it anymore. He stuck the fishing rod into the sand and found a rock to weigh on it. He then turned around and walked into the shade of the trees.
The host, Ally, was dumbfounded. Although this was her first time hosting this program, she was also a loyal viewer of this show, and this was her first time meeting such a casual contestant.
The comments in the livestream exploded. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, they couldn’t stop at all.
“Is he here to participate in a survival program? Why doesn’t it look like it?”
“It really doesn’t seem like it. Look at him leaning against the tree, hugging his arms. How is this someone here to join a survival program?”
“This young man is so handsome. I like him so much.”
“Yeah, look at how leisurely and relaxed he is. He’s practically there for vacation.”
There were quite a number of female viewers in the livestream. When they saw this scene, they appeared to be especially excited.
“Do you people only look at his looks? Does he even look like someone who’s fishing? If he continues to waste his time like this, he’ll starve to death sooner or later.”
“That’s right. It won’t be long before it gets dark. He hasn’t even started a fire yet. By then, due to the high diurnal temperature range, he’ll be hungry and cold. It’s not something an ordinary person can withstand.”
Just as everyone was discussing this intensely, David suddenly moved. He came to the pole and pulled it.
A black fish was lifted and sent flying by him.
“What the heck?”
“????”
“That works too????”
There had never been so many question marks in the livestream. The entire screen was covered in question marks.
They felt like their brains couldn’t keep up. A person could fish like this too?
A voice sounded in David’s mind. “Congratulations Host on obtaining Fishing Skill. Current level: LV 1.”
The corner’s of David’s lips curled up into a smile. He knew this was going to happen.
In the beginning, he could obtain skills no matter what he did.
Now that he was hungry, as long as he got moving and achieved some results, skills would appear immediately.
With this skill, he did not need to worry about food for now.
The fish flopped without end on the ground. He went forward and picked it up. It was fully the size of his palm.
He did not have any cutting tools so he could only use other methods to split open the fish.
He thought of the shells he had seen on the beach earlier. Some of them were bigger and cracked, just enough to be used as temporary tools.
Stepping into the water, he bent down and chose a few. Soon, he found the sharpest temporary knife.
Although it was only the size of a finger, it was obviously very sharp.
David came to the shore and sliced open the fish’s belly, cleaning out the innards.
Then, he used his small knife to cut the flesh into slices.
When Ally saw this scene, she was completely stunned. She covered her mouth in astonishment. “Oh my god, he’s really too amazing. This is the first time I’ve seen such an interesting survival program.”
As the most famous outdoor explorer, Wade was also very shocked when he saw this scene, and he was even in slight disbelief.
Ally asked excitedly, “Mr. Wade, you’ve been out in the wild so many times, have you had times where you were so relaxed?”
Wade put on an awkward yet polite smile. “Yes, but very little. You know, there are a lot of things to do when you’ve just arrived in the area. Time is extremely tight.”
Allie smiled and said, “Things rarely go as smoothly as this, right?”
Wade shook his head. “Very rarely.”
He was trying to survive in the wild, that was true survival. He couldn’t waste any second.
If he were to waste time, not only would he be faced with an unexpected situation, he would also face the risk of starving.
In just an hour, David had actually solved the problem of food and accommodation!
He had to admit that David was indeed very formidable!
“Oh my god, what am I seeing? Is he eating sashimi?”
“Yes, you’re right. He is eating sashimi.”
“The brother earlier was right. He’s not trying to survive. He’s on vacation in the wild.”
“Two seasons, a total of 157 episodes. I’ve never seen anyone so relaxed at the beginning.”
“Person above, I’ve also finished watching the program. This is also my first time seeing it.”
“Who was it who said that he was going to eat three fishing rods? Where is he? Come out here!”
“Did you see that? He’s the only one out of 100 people on the island who has food.”
The group of people who had believed in David earlier immediately started spamming the comments, they were full of mockery.
Those who did not believe it would never believe it, much less accept this fact.
“Don’t you think the treatment he received was too good? Was it not intentionally arranged by the production team?”
“Someone finally said what was on my mind. Things really went too smoothly for him. The production team must have arranged it beforehand.”
“For the sake of the viewership ratings, the production team is too unscrupulous! Do they think we are fools?”
