"It's actually not that big, is it?" Bai Ye examined the 'giant octopus's' tentacles, showing slight dissatisfaction. This dopey shark had dragged up a rather small one!
As he spoke, he walked towards the tentacle, freezing the ice with each step, and then froze the massive tentacle onto the sea surface. Those great white sharks, however, had already scurried back into the deep sea without looking back.
In that instant, they had felt a terrifying killing intent. No matter how delicious and nourishing the giant octopus carcass was, their lives were far more important!
By the time Bai Ye approached the tentacle, the netizens were even more shocked.
Setting aside the length of the tentacle, its diameter alone, when placed on the ground, reached Bai Ye's shoulders!
"Holy crap, holy crap! Brother Ye is over 1.8 meters tall, and this! This tentacle is 1.6 to 1.7 meters thick?? Thirty to forty meters long?"
"My god! This… is this really an octopus?"
"Heavens! Could this be the prototype for the monsters in our Ultraman shows?"
...
Having faced doubt countless times, Bai Ye remained unruffled. With a casual wave of his hand, he conjured cutlery like knives and forks, effortlessly slicing through the extremely tough outer skin of the tentacle, which was resistant to bullets and explosions, and then cut out tender, fresh meat strips from within…
He calmly stated, "Our Earth's oceans cover 70% of its surface, and there are many places humans haven't explored yet. Furthermore, the ocean is the most abundant resource. It's not strange to have a few larger octopuses…"
Bai Ye spoke with a mix of truth and falsehood as he skillfully and efficiently roasted the cut tentacle meat over a fire. He then produced salt and cumin from somewhere, sprinkling them on sequentially!
Gulp~
The audience, listening to his explanation, swallowed their saliva… Some argumentative viewers were about to voice their objections.
The livestream channel then saw some activity.
[Marine Biologist - Jiro Yamajima sent 2 Carnivals]: "What Bai Ye-kun said, while somewhat general, is essentially correct. There's a type of octopus in the deep sea called the Giant Pacific Octopus, with an extremely long lifespan and virtually unrestricted growth. In the 1990s, there were reports of sailors capturing a Giant Pacific Octopus weighing seven tons. Although not as large as the one Brother Ye killed, this one is clearly much older than the recorded one…"
Giant Pacific Octopus? Many netizens were bewildered. They half-believed and half-doubted, opening their browsers to search for related information. Surprisingly, they actually found something.
"Holy crap! This… this really is a Giant Pacific Octopus? But this… it's too massive!"
"First time hearing about such a miraculous creature. My horizons have been broadened!"
"Whether it's scientific or not, I don't really care. I just want to know: Brother Ye, how did it taste?"
"Yeah! For a foodie like me, my mouth is watering by several large bowls!"
"Why even ask? In this short time, he's already eaten five or six catties! I didn't realize Brother Ye had such a good appetite!"
"Poor giant octopus! Tears of sympathy are flowing from the corners of my mouth!"
…
"The meat is old, not good. Those with bad teeth probably couldn't eat it!"
After eating for a while, Bai Ye nudged this large section of octopus tentacle into the sea with his foot and then bent down to wash his hands.
"The rest will be a reward for the obedient fish in the sea."
Watching the large tentacle splash into the sea and disappear, the foodies in the livestream chat were wide-eyed with fury.
"Wuwuwu… Brother Ye, why don't you mail us some! You're making me crave it to death!"
"What a waste! I really want to eat it!"
"You ate several catties in one go and you say it's not good! You're truly heartless!"
"Suddenly feeling like Brother Ye is quite punchable!"
…
"It really wasn't very tasty! Much worse than the small animals on my ranch!" Bai Ye said again, almost causing his fans to revolt.
"Alright, alright! Next time I return home, I'll mail you some of the ranch's meat products. They're much tastier than this old octopus!"
Hearing Bai Ye's words, the restless foodies in the livestream chat finally quieted down a bit. Just as they were about to express their excited thanks, Bai Ye waved his hand and ended the stream.
"This livestream ends here for now. We'll see each other next time!"
Beep!!!
??? It's over already?
Could it be any faster or shorter?
Netizens left excited comments one after another, and the comment section of Bai Ye's livestream account exploded.
"༼ʘ∧ʘ༽ᓄ When is next time?"
"Brother Ye is too wicked. We're going to mail you razor blades! (*・w・)✄╰ひ╯"
…
Han Country! Han Zaiyin, Han Xiuhui… what are you guys doing?
Bai Ye gazed towards the land of Han Country. He wasn't in a hurry to head to Seoul, but continued to stroll on the sea surface.
He glanced at the recent livestream, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.
Reputation: 109 million.
Previously, it was over 83 million. This single livestream had brought in over 26 million, which was an unexpected surprise.
After a brief thought, Bai Ye called out, "System, activate membership!"
[Ding~ Alright! The membership lottery area has been activated for you. Various little magic tricks that can change the world await you. Please continue to work hard to earn reputation!]
The system seemed delighted, but Bai Ye's eyes twitched. The membership area was hazy, and he couldn't see any information at all!
One hundred million reputation points vanished just like that.
"Normal area… lottery!" Bai Ye took several deep breaths and, feeling helpless, could only shift his attention…
