Chapter 37: Worldwide (3)


    Deep Sea Fish Hunting Specialty Broadcast – 37


    <strong><em>EP.37 Worldwide (3)</em></strong>


    ─Wow, damn.


    ─The excitement is off the charts.


    Throughout history, pitting two fighters against each other has always been a significant part of human entertainment.


    diators and lions, Messi and Ronaldo, fantasy and martial arts, T-Rex and Spinosaurus.


    Whenever there are two seemingly strong entities, bringing them together to see who is stronger has always been proven fun and engaging content.


    And the sight of massive monsters, tens of meters long, fighting each other was more than enough to flood the viewers’ brains with dopamine.


    Watching a 40-meter shark tear into a 50-meter eel was more thrilling than they had imagined.Moreover, the battle was neck and neck. The bnce was precarious, like walking on thin ice. This was possible because Parang had cleverly chosen two monsters with simr strength.


    Vertea was engrossed in providingmentary from the side.


    “The one that looks like a shark is a monster called Hinus. It’s a mutated version of a medium-sized shark species known as the fierce shark.”


    The original species, the fierce shark, is one of the few fish species that are fully viviparous, meaning they give birth to live young like mammals.


    However, under the influence of the gate, it had transformed into an oviparous species.


    This was why Vertea could find the eggs.


    Creatures influenced by the gate all intriguingly transform into oviparous species.


    Another characteristic is their incredibly strong aggressiveness. They are fast and violent.


    Despite its rtively small size of 40 meters, it is ssified as a predator.


    Next, the eel.


    “The eel monster, Muros. It’s the same eel you know. Originally, its body length is about 40 meters, but this one is a bitrger.”


    Vertea continued her calm exnation.


    “It has great sticity, so its body can stretch like rubber. It can easily double its original length.”


    Parang assisted with thementary from the side.


    “As it stretches, its outer skin bes thinner, significantly reducing its durability. The skin of a fully stretched Muros can be torn off by hand.”


    Of course, by Parang’s standards.


    “How do I know? Because I’ve done it myself. It feels quite satisfying to tear it apart, like peeling an orange.”


    ─Parang, what are you saying…


    ─But if it feels like peeling an orange, that’s a good thing.


    ─This is really insane.


    Meanwhile, the two monsters continued their fierce battle.


    Mostly, Hinus would charge violently, and Muros would evade.


    Eels are among the more intelligent fish. How intelligent? Intelligent enough for humans to tame them. A well-trained eel can recognize its owner.


    As a monster, this advantage had further developed, allowing Muros to evade all of Hinus’s ferocious attacks.


    However, Muros was slightly slower than Hinus, making counterattacks impossible as it narrowly avoided the attacks.


    Muros’s technique of bending its body in a miraculous way to dodge Hinus’s charges was astonishing, as if its entire body was made of joints (which it actually was).


    It made one wonder if it was really a fish.


    Hunters watching the broadcast unconsciously imagined themselves in Muros’s ce, wondering if they could dodge a charging shark at that speed underwater.


    And they quickly concluded.


    If they ever faced that shark, they would be horrifically killed without a chance to escape.


    “Hinus is quitemon among monsters. It’s slightly rarer than Bellua. Its habitat range is very wide, often appearing at the 700m mark, the entrance to the monsteryer. Recently, it was found at a depth of 9km, breaking records.”


    Parang added to Vertea’s exnation.


    “Sometimes, theye up even higher. On nights when the monsteryer rises, you can asionally see them at a depth of 300m.”


    The viewers knew that the monsteryer rises at night.


    Parang had mentioned it during her swim to Hong Kong.


    As a result, no one in South Korea dives at night anymore.


    Night diving was already unimaginably dangerous without monsters, and with the monsteryer rising, the thought of diving at night waspletely unappealing.


    Unlike daytime diving, where the chance of encountering a monster is extremely low, night diving has a high probability of encountering one. Parang always emphasizes the dangers of night diving whenever she gets the chance.


    “In fact, whether it’s day or night, it’s best not to dive at all…”


    ■■■■■――!!!


    Parang’s words were cut off by the cry of a monster.


    A monster that interrupted Parang deserved the Monster of the Month award.


    ─Wow.


    ─That was a solid hit.


    Parang looked at the ongoing battle.


    Hinus was now entangled by Muros.


    From tail to head, tightly coiled in a spiral.


    Due to the shark’s body structure, there was no way to escape once it was entangled like this.


    “Look closely. You can see parts of its body that are lighter in color than usual. That’s the membrane that was hidden under the skin.”


    As she said, Muros had elongated its body to coil around Hinus. The constriction was so strong th


    Hinus pulled its teeth out of Muros.


    The teeth were drenched in red blood.


    Blood streamed down the teeth like a long thread.


    The problem was that it didn’t stop.


    “Hinus’s teeth secrete a special chemical from their venom nds. It turns blood into a high-molecr substance.”


    Parang simplified the exnation.


    “In other words, it makes the blood simr to egg whites.”


    If you’ve ever separated the yolk from the egg white, you’d know the feeling.


    The point is, the blood wouldn’t stop.


    Not just not stopping, but continuously draining out of the body.


    The area was already thick with the blood Muros had shed.


    The blood mist was so dense that it obscured the view.


    Hinus, covered in scars, swam into the mist,


    ─Wow.


    ─Hinus wins!!


    It emerged with the dried-up corpse of Muros in its mouth.


    “Hinus wins.”


    Parang stated inly and then swam towards Hinus.


    <strong>– Swish. –</strong>


    She swung her harpoon smoothly.


    ■■■■■■―!!


    Hinus was split in half and died instantly.


    The chat froze for a moment, then exploded.


    ─What was that fight I just watched?


    ─One?? Hit??? KO???


    “If anyone can do this, please contact me. If you can’t, then don’t dive.”


    ─Don’t dive.


    ─Being this consistent is a talent…


    The joint broadcast with Vertea continued smoothly in a good atmosphere.


    Except for the gate-born monsters that don’ty eggs, almost all the monsters in cars 3 and 2 fought each other.


    How does she find the eggs in less than 30 seconds every time??


    “That’s thanks to years of experience and umted knowledge through continuous research…”


    “It’s a skill.”


    “…which resulted in acquiring the skill. Yes, that’s right.”


    Parang said in a slightly sulky voice.


    ─Is the host sulking?


    ─That was clearly a sulking tone.


    “No, I’m not.”


    To be honest, it was a bit true.


    As Vertea said, besides her ability to grill fish alive, she was also excellent at finding things underwater.


    Whenever she discovered a new monster, she would stick to it all day, figuring out what it ate, where it nested, how its eggs looked, its weaknesses, and how many hearts it had. It was inevitable that she would develop rted skills.


    Thus, the day’s monster battles concluded with the much-anticipated Bambaspis mirror match.


    Parang prepared to wrap up the broadcast.


    “Thank you so much for watching today’s broadcast, and again, don’t dive. I trust you won’t.”


    “Today was fun. And I’ll be starting my own broadcast soon.”


    ─Are you going to do another monster battle?


    ─Will you show European monsters???


    “Having monster battles… hmm… I think we’ll do it asionally.”


    “For reference, we won’t be doing it on my channel. I don’t even have the ability to find eggs in the first ce.”


    Parang intended to make monster battles exclusive content for Vertea’s broadcast. This way, it would create a unique selling point and attract more viewers.


    The effect of preventing diving… surprisingly, judging by today’s viewer reactions, seemed promising.


    If Parang showed the horrifying aspects of monsters, Vertea would showcase their strength.


    Moreover, due to the time difference, their broadcast times werepletely separate.


    “Well, anyway. That’s that. Please watch Vertea’s broadcasts a lot, and once again, don’t dive. Got it?”


    ─Yes.


    “See you tomorrow.”


    With those words, Parang’s broadcast ended.


    Shortly after the broadcast ended, a mysterious video with the entire broadcast recording and highlight edits tranted into French, English, Spanish, and German started being rmended suspiciously often in European algorithms.


    And then.


    “Now, then—”


    “We have work to do.”


    Parang and Vertea didn’t leave the East Sea Hive after the broadcast ended.


    They were standing at the connecting part between cars 2 and 1.


    <strong>– Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep. –</strong>


    The detector on Parang’s chest was beeping furiously.
