Chapter 11: There Were Always People Who Weren’t Afraid of Death
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After seeing the scene in the video, Chu Ze was certain that it was the drone he saw yesterday.
Fortunately, he couldn’t see himself in the video. After all, there was such a large mutated creature, so the cameraman’s attention couldn’t be focused on him.
“I was nearby last night, I saw that mutated creature.”
“It was a huge blackfish. It looked like it was about 20 meters long. I ran away as soon as I saw it.”
Chu Ying was very worried. “Brother, don’t go to the middle of the lake anymore. If you see those mutated creatures, hide. Don’t show yourself..”
“Don’t worry. I can swim very fast. I’m even faster than that big blackfish. Although it’s so big, its flexibility is far worse than mine.”
“If I encounter a big blackfish, I can still escape even if I can’t beat it.”
Chu Ze was right. It was better to survive in the water. As long as you swam fast enough, nothing could eat you.
Just like dolphins in the sea, adult dolphins had almost no natural enemies because almost no fish could catch up with them.
Looking at the lake, Li Manman was a little confused. “Even if I heard about mutated creatures in the past, it was said that their bodies had mutated and were not suitable for human consumption.”
“I’ve never heard of any mutated creatures that could eat humans, let alone such a large mutated creature.”
“And in the past two years, I’ve often heard of the emergence of huge mutated creatures. Is there something happening on earth that we don’t know about?”
Chu Ze shook his head and said, “I don’t know either, but I’ve become like this myself.”

Speaking of which, Chu Ze smiled bitterly and said, “Forget about those things. You guys go back early. Today, I saw some people sneaking up on the lakeside. They must be up to no good.”
“You guys have to be careful next time you come. Don’t let anyone find out.”
Li Manman nodded. “We’ll be careful. We’ll check the situation around here. If we can’t get in, we’ll go back.”
“You, on the other hand, are the only one here. You should be more careful.”
Chu Ying nodded. “Yes, Manman and I can call the police if we need anything. You’re on your own now. You have to be careful.”
“Don’t worry. I’m just catching some fish and prawns in this lake. It won’t be dangerous.”
“It’s not good for you to stay here for too long. Hurry up and go back. Just come here often if you miss me. There are a lot of people here these days.”
Chu Ying and Li Manman waved goodbye to Chu Ze. “Then we’ll leave first. You have to be careful here.”
Not long after the two left, a group of people appeared by the lake.
However, they appeared a little far away from Chu Ze’s side. These people wanted to see the mutated blackfish.
Chu Ze felt movement. He quietly popped his head out to see what these people wanted to do.
“Brothers, watch carefully. Today, our brothers will capture a big blackfish alive for everyone.”
“Yes, we will capture a big blackfish alive with our brothers. When the time comes, we will make fish soup for our brothers.”
Hearing this, Chu Ze understood that these people came to this place to start a live broadcast.
“I didn’t expect that there are people who are not afraid of death. Last night, a few people were eaten by a big blackfish, but they still dare to come here tonight.”
Those people got a small fishing boat from God knows where. It was smaller than the fishing boat last night.
The engine roared as the boat slowly headed toward the center of the lake.
Chu Ze followed behind the small fishing boat from afar. He wanted to see if these people were really capable or if they were here to join in the fun.
“Brothers, we’re already on the boat. We’ll be at the center of the lake soon.”
“Brothers, if you like our live broadcast, give us some gifts.”
“As long as the presents are good, we will immediately perform catching blackfish with our bare hands.”
The lake’s surface was slightly cool at night when the breeze blew.
On the boat, a young man dressed in thin clothes was trembling slightly when the cool breeze blew.
“Brother, why do I feel that there is a chilly wind here? I’m a little scared.”
“What are you scared of? You have my back. You, young man, have too little experience. You don’t understand.”
As he spoke, the big brother reached out and closed the microphone.
“Kid, let me tell you. There are no gods and ghosts in this world. They’re all lies.”
“Just look at the video today. It must be a composite. It’s like something from a movie.”
“Our brothers are here to ride on the hype today and make a fortune. When the time comes, you’ll have the money to buy your partner a cell phone.”
When the young man heard his brother’s words, he was no longer afraid.
He thought about it and felt that his brother’s words were quite reasonable. How could a blackfish grow to 20 meters long? It must be a fake video.
Chu Ze, who was following from afar, heard their conversation and could not help but feel a little angry.
“This brother is also a mischievous person. He wants to send himself to his death and even dragged the young man.”
Seeing that the boat was about to reach the center of the lake, Chu Ze stopped and did not continue to follow.
“Erzi, stop the boat. It uses too much fuel. We are already at the center of the lake. We don’t need to drive the boat anymore.”
From afar, Chu Ze could already feel the surging waves at the bottom of the lake. However, when the engine on the boat stopped, the activity at the bottom of the lake also stopped.
Chu Ze thought to himself, “So this big blackfish has a reaction to the sound of the engine. It seems that it was annoyed by the noise and came out to attack humans.”
Then, Chu Ze saw the boss on the boat waving his phone around.
“Brothers, come and have a look. We have reached the center of the lake.”
“Now, we haven’t seen any monsters. We haven’t even seen a fish.”
Then, the boss took out an item from the cabin.
“Brothers, watch what I’m holding in my hand. This thing isn’t easy to get now. As long as we farm two planes, I’ll light this thing up and throw it into the lake today.”
After seeing what the boss was holding, Chu Ze sucked in a breath of cold air and quickly left the place.
The young man who had been afraid earlier shivered when he saw what the boss was holding.
“Big brother, this thing is a detonator, right? Isn’t this a prohibited item? Where did you get it?”

The boss winked at the young man, then shut the microphone and explained to the young man.
“I don’t have the ability to make a detonator. I just made it myself with explosives. How about it? It’s very similar to an authentic detonator, right?”

Then, he saw the plane flashing on the screen and quickly turned on the microphone.
“Thank you, brother, for sending the plane. Now, the planes are enough. I’ll light this thing and throw it into the lake.”
After saying that, he took out a windproof lighter and prepared to light it.
“Brothers, watch carefully. We won’t dawdle. We’ll do what we said. We’ll light it now.”
Chu Ze was a little speechless when he heard this voice. He secretly cursed, “A bunch of idiots. They really want money but not their lives. Their deaths are not worth regretting.”
The boss said and threw the lit detonator down.
