This game is so weird!

Meanwhile, shortly after Li Ang fell asleep, his two most precious and currently only employees successfully arrived at the beach.

Along the way, Er Miao and Ye Yu each picked up some things that looked like fish bait.

From earthworms crawling out of the ground near the base to hermit crabs and other small seashells scurrying across the beach, and even two pieces of fruit broken off from fruit trees on the shore, the two prepared seven or eight baits each, ready to show off their skills. Midway through, Ye Yu took a break and went back to the base to ask the base AI, which was bored and idling without any new players logging on, for a storage box to hold the fish, in case there were too many fish to carry.

"O God, activate!"

Shouting out incomprehensible yet impressive words, Er Miao forcefully cast the fishing line out of her hand.

A large, red earthworm, not quite dead yet and still struggling, was caught on a fishing hook, arcing through the air before finally falling into the sea.

Unsure of the preferences of the sea fish here, the two planned to test the waters with more traditional earthworms first.

Although he calls himself a legendary fishing expert, Er Miao has only ever fished in games like Russian Fishing Simulator and Far Cry 5. But they're all fishing games, so there shouldn't be much difference, right?

Er Miao and Ye Yu waited for a long time, but the floating icon on the screen remained motionless.

"This game is a bit outrageous..."

Just then, the fishing rod on Ye Yu's screen suddenly bent sharply downwards, causing Ye Yu to move forward as well.

"It's biting! It's biting! Pull it up quickly!"

Er Miao was excitedly pacing around, holding the fishing rod and staring intently at Ye Yu, wishing she could go up and pull the rod for him.

"What do I do? Which key do I press? This game doesn't even give me any hints!"

Ye Yu frantically clicked on the keyboard, finally triggering the reel-in action when she pressed the left mouse button. As the fishing line tightened, the fishing rod gradually bent.

"Hey! You can't keep doing this forever, can you?"

"Snap—"

Before he could finish speaking, the fishing line snapped, and the huge recoil pulled the fishing rod and slammed it into Ye Yu's face, startling him.

Before Ye Yu could continue, the protagonist on the screen skillfully pulled back the fishing line, took out a new hook from the storage box, and hooked it up, just like an hour ago, as if nothing had happened.

"Hahahahahaha!!!!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Hearing the maniacal laughter and table-slamming sounds coming from the voice message, Ye Yu's face immediately darkened.

"This fishing line is so cheap! There aren't even any instructions on how to use it. Thumbs down!"

"Hahahaha, you're so bad, Prisoner Night. But the game's controls are definitely a bit off. There should at least be some hints for hooking and reeling in the line. This hardcore approach probably won't be popular."

After laughing at it, Er Miao also began to think about the pros and cons of the game "Uncharted Waters".

The game's graphics are undeniably exquisite, far surpassing the realism of the Morals and the Law 6 trailer. This is the actual gameplay footage, not a CG scam. While a demo cannot represent the final product, given that they've achieved this level of visual quality, they wouldn't just try to cash in and run, would they? SDM offers refunds.

However, the gameplay is still too simplistic. Perhaps because it's a demo, it seems that the only gameplay elements currently available are fishing and hunting...

If fishing is this confusing, hunting probably won't be much better, right?

-----------------

Just then, Fang Fengxiao, who logged on half an hour later than the two of them, was running through the mountains and forests, dodging an attack from a wild beast with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth.

As a well-known content creator in the game demo section, he logged into SDM on the first day of the new product festival and browsed through the list of demo games, choosing his side dish for the day. He immediately discovered "Beautiful Sea World", which is touted as the first domestic open-world sandbox game.

Although the game's name sounded very similar to other games and it was a sandbox game that he wasn't particularly interested in, he still added it to his library because of his fondness for domestically produced games and his interest in the promotional video.

Since it's free, I'll just play around and see what happens.

However, there are too many demo games to add, especially many popular new titles.

After a brief initial experience with the other games, half an hour had passed before he could finally access the Ocean World. Following a simple training session with the base's intelligent assistant, his desire to explore this domestically produced sandbox game took over. Preparing to carefully observe the game environment, he left the base and wandered into the mountains, and then...

"Chase me! Chase me!"

"Watch my slide tackle! Running so slowly and still trying to eat people? That's hilarious!"

Happy laughter echoed through the mountains and forests.

-----------------

"Oh my gosh! My first big fish has taken the bait!"

With a splash, a small, completely transparent fish was pulled out of the water. The fish, slightly larger than a palm, had a baseball-sized eyeball embedded in its center, which continued to spin even after leaving the water.

Er Miao and Ye Yuji stared blankly at the first small fish that had been caught, unable to tell whether it was cute or disgusting, but they just found it strange.

"As expected, this fishing game is still on another planet..."

After a while, Ye Yu gave a dry evaluation.

"Yes...yes...let's continue with the mission."

Just as Er Miao was about to put the fish into the storage box, she saw several figures walking towards her in the distance.

The person at the front was sturdy with a ferocious face. His bald head was covered with abnormally protruding muscles, and several large earlobes-like growths on his face made him look like a monster octopus.

"Damn! You actually managed to pull it off, Captain Jones."

Er Miao ran to Mu Yu's side, circled around him, and exclaimed in amazement.

"Hehe, this game's photo recognition can't generate my unusual appearance yet. It can only make small adjustments bit by bit. After struggling for a long time, I finally succeeded!"

After greeting the passersby who were passing by, Muyu dispersed and followed Ermiao to the spot where they had been fishing.

"Wow, you two actually caught one...one..."

"What is this thing?"

After thinking for a long time, Muyu still couldn't figure out what the fish was called, and there were no prompts on the left or right. However, the display screen on the side of the storage box showed a number of 4.8pt, which was most likely the weight data.

"Impressive, right? Hehe."

Er Miao proudly patted his chest, "This is the first fish we've ever caught!"

"We don't know what it's called either," Night Rain replied, puzzled. "The game provides too little information."

"It might still be under development. I'll ask the developers via private message later when it's offline."

Wooden Fish took out its fishing rod and temporarily set aside the topic.

"The sea is really beautiful."

"Why don't you teach me how to fish first? Let's see what my giant turtle can catch!"

As he spoke, he took out a sea turtle the size of a basketball from his side bag and, after some effort, hooked the fishing hook onto its shell.

"Get out of here!"

Snapped--

The sea turtle crashed heavily onto the surface of the sea, then dived downwards and disappeared from sight.

"That was thrown way too close..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fishing line on the wooden fish rod suddenly taut, and then the reel spun rapidly, the fishing line moving quickly through the water.

Er Miao and Ye Yu were dumbfounded. They'd already taken the bait?!

"Hahahaha! See that? This is the power of the King of Fishing." The wooden fish suddenly lifted the fishing rod and began to reel in the line. As the line tightened, the fishing rod gradually bent into an arc.

"Hey, be careful not to break it. Just now, Lao Ye let the fish escape."

"No, no, I've been fishing with a wooden fish for years..."

Before he could finish speaking, a tremendous force came from the other end of the fishing line, pulling the wooden fish to the ground and dragging it into the sea.

The azure seawater shimmered under the sunlight, and colorful corals and yellow anemones created a breathtaking underwater scene. The wooden fish was momentarily stunned, fiddling with the beautiful seabed until it was dragged into a gaping maw by the fishing line, and the screen blurred before it snapped back to reality.

"Wooden fish ——————————"

From the sea came Er Miao's pitiful cries, "If you're going to leave, at least leave something behind!"
