Outside the screen, the people of Blue Star were frantic.

Zheng Ke let out a long sigh. “This He Yu... why isn’t he getting away from the giant fish {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} already? If he leaves the fish and swims quickly enough, maybe if he’s lucky, Wanrenzhan’s group won’t find him...”

Ye Kaijun shook his head, immediately rejecting the idea.

“With his current luck? Do you seriously think he’s lucky right now? Besides, Wanrenzhan’s team has Tang Ke and Gedai. They’ll definitely find He Yu.”

Those two possessed vision far beyond ordinary standards. Even if He Yu fled now, his chances of survival were still extremely low.

Zheng Ke hesitated. “Then... what if he stays on the giant fish?”

Ye Kaijun answered firmly—

“He’ll definitely die.”

Zheng Ke fell silent for a moment before asking quietly, “Then... should we keep watching?”

Every death of a Blue Star contestant hurt them deeply.

If possible, they did not want to personally witness the death of one of their own—especially a contestant who had briefly shone so brilliantly.

Wei Jiaguo thought for a moment before gritting his teeth.

“Let’s wait a little longer.”

At the same time—

Zhang Yu’s roommate was so anxious he started cursing.

“What the hell is he doing?! Run already! They’re about to catch him!!”

Zhang Yu replied weakly, “...He doesn’t know Wanrenzhan is chasing him.”

His roommate exploded.

“If he runs now, he still has a chance! If he doesn’t run, he’ll die without even leaving a corpse behind!”

Zhang Yu repeated helplessly, “...He doesn’t know Wanrenzhan is chasing him.”

His roommate clenched his teeth.

“He stole something right in front of Wanrenzhan! Wanrenzhan is definitely going to torture him to death! He’ll make him suffer before killing him, make him scream and beg on camera!”

Zhang Yu once again answered—

“...He doesn’t know Wanrenzhan is chasing him.”

“......”

His roommate stood up furiously.

“I’m not watching anymore. I’m going to watch someone else’s stream. That serial killer Gao Jianming might be shameless, but at least he’s still alive. After He Yu dies, don’t tell me. I don’t want to know.”

Zhang Yu nodded blankly. “Oh...”

For some reason, Zhang Yu suddenly remembered the way He Yu had agilely dodged between the two giant fish earlier.

And somehow...

He felt that maybe He Yu would not die like this.

After all, according to certain female netizens—

[He Yu has the face of a protagonist. There’s no way he’ll die that easily.]

Rain poured down noisily.

On the screen, He Yu’s figure within the storm looked so thin and helpless.

The giant fish was diving deeper and deeper. Half of his body had already sunk underwater. His frail frame could no longer stand steadily, forcing him to collapse against the fish’s head.

And in the corner of his livestream—

Wanrenzhan’s group had appeared.

Through the rain, Tang Ke and Gedai stared continuously into the distance.

This was the difference between the powerful elites of the Federation Main Planet and people like Blue Star’s He Yu.

In such a rainstorm, He Yu’s vision and hearing were severely obstructed.

But the Federation elites were completely unaffected.

Their senses were already stronger to begin with, and without interference, they possessed an overwhelming advantage.

Tang Ke looked startled.

“That giant fish is diving!”

Annie looked puzzled. “That’s strange. No matter which planet someone comes from, surviving underwater long-term without equipment is impossible. Why would the person controlling the giant fish let it dive?”

Gedai’s mechanical voice rang out firmly—

“The giant fish has lost control.”

Wanrenzhan instantly became excited.

“Then attack! Take this chance to kill both the giant fish and that trash planet native together! Crush him completely!”

“Charge—!”

The raft accelerated again, charging directly toward the diving giant fish.

Blue Star.

Zheng Ke’s face turned pale.

“It’s over. He Yu... is finished.”

Ye Kaijun reached for the remote and shook his head.

“Switch streams. I’m done watching.”

“Wait!”

Wei Jiaguo suddenly stopped him.

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

Wei Jiaguo stared fixedly at the screen without blinking, his voice filled with uncertainty.

“What do you think... He Yu is thinking about right now?”

On-screen, He Yu still maintained his slightly lowered posture, seemingly deep in thought.

What was He Yu thinking about?

The giant fish was diving.

Wanrenzhan’s group behind him was getting closer and closer.

It seemed inevitable that he would either die in the giant fish’s jaws or at the hands of Wanrenzhan’s team.

The giant fish completely submerged.

He Yu’s body disappeared underwater, buoyancy lifting him off the top of the fish’s head.

Behind him, Wanrenzhan shouted—

“Don’t let it dive!”

The instant his voice fell, the giant axe tore through the wind and rain, slashing viciously toward the giant fish.

The raft buzzed as it surged directly behind the creature.

Rainstorm winds screamed endlessly while flashes of lightning carried a murderous aura.

Underwater—

He Yu suddenly raised his head.

Should he gamble or not?

There was no need to hesitate.

Right now, he was a gambler with absolutely nothing left.

The only thing he could gamble—

Was his life.

Using his life to gamble for a slim chance of survival.

And would He Yu be afraid?

Thus, at this moment, the entire universe saw—

Underwater, He Yu lifted his head and curled his lips into a wicked smile.

Behind those “flashy but useless” glasses, his eyes shone brighter than stars, vaster than the ocean itself.

And in the instant he smiled—

The “utterly ordinary” knife in his hand stabbed viciously downward into the giant fish’s skull!

“PSSHT—”

At that moment, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

Every viewer widened their eyes.

A single thought flashed through countless minds—

[He’s insane!]

[This is fucking suicide!!]

The prettier he smiled—

The more viciously the knife plunged.

As though that still wasn’t enough, the corners of his lips lifted even higher.

Both hands gripping the knife, he twisted it violently.

“PSSH—”

Blood slowly seeped outward from the wound.

Even though this was the core area of the giant fish’s head, He Yu with 2 combat power and a knife with 3 combat power could not kill it.

But—

They could drive it mad.

“ROAR!!”

The giant fish burst violently out of the sea, head lifted skyward, body tense, mouth wide open as it unleashed a furious howl.

He Yu tightly gripped the knife embedded in the giant fish’s skull, hanging himself against the creature’s back.

The giant fish thrashed wildly.

The surrounding sea exploded into waves and violent currents.

Clenching his teeth, He Yu refused to let go, resisting the terrifying force trying to throw him away.

“BANG!”

“ROAR!”

“CRASH!”

One deafening sound followed another.

The man on the giant fish’s back was repeatedly flung into the air, his body suspended amid the storm.

The only thing connecting him to the giant fish—

Was the knife he held desperately.

At any moment, it looked as though he might be thrown away and smashed into the deep ocean below.

Everyone stared breathlessly.

While the giant fish twisted and rampaged wildly—

Wanrenzhan’s axe slashed toward them.

And the target—

Was precisely He Yu.

—Danger!

Countless viewers unconsciously grabbed their collars, their breathing stopping.

He Yu seemed to sense it.

His body shifted slightly.

He narrowly avoided the axe.

However, the violent wind generated by the weapon still tore open his arm, blood instantly spraying outward, glaringly vivid even within the rainstorm.

This was the difference between 5 combat power and over 300 combat power.

The axe had merely brushed past him—

Yet he was already injured.

If the axe actually struck He Yu directly...

Could he survive?

“CRACK—!”

Amid thunder and lightning, the axe slammed into the giant fish.

This strike cut several times deeper than He Yu’s ordinary knife.

But the wound was not fatal.

For a giant fish of this size, it was only a minor injury.

After slashing through the creature, the axe spun through the air and returned.

Wanrenzhan stretched out his hand and caught the giant axe, his voice savage.

“You’re all going to die—!”

He Yu did not even turn his head.

As though he had heard nothing at all, he simply twisted the knife embedded in the giant fish’s skull once more.

“ROOOAR—!!”

The giant fish howled furiously.

Its body flipped violently, fish head turning toward Wanrenzhan’s group.

Its eyes had turned blood-red, overflowing with hatred.

It could not see He Yu hanging on top of its head.

But it could see Wanrenzhan’s group behind it.

And it could clearly sense where that axe strike had originated from.

Wanrenzhan’s group froze.

—It had only been one axe strike.

So why had the giant fish entered berserk mode already?!

Annie stared at Wanrenzhan in disbelief.

“Did your combat power increase again?! You drove a giant fish berserk with one strike?!”

Wanrenzhan: “......”

Even he looked confused while gripping his axe.

—This was a little unscientific.

The purpose of that strike had only been to stop the giant fish from diving and force it to remain near the surface.

How the hell had it triggered berserk mode?

Giant fish rarely entered berserk states.

Many remained fully conscious even until death.

Only powerful “mini-bosses” possessed berserk states, and once berserk mode activated, it usually meant that mini-boss was close to dying.

Because of this, berserk giant fish were extremely rare.

Encountering one that morning had already been an exception.

Yet now, another had appeared because of a single axe strike?!

Was this fucking scientific?!

Was his axe really that overpowered?!

Of course, now was not the time to analyze the situation.

Because they faced another immediate problem—

Tang Ke shouted—

“RUN!!”
