Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 175

Chapter 175: Exploring the Reservoir, the Flood Dragon Appears?

TL: Etude

“What are you afraid of? Didn’t many people come here before? There wasn’t any water monster like they said. I suspect that the video was synthesized using CG.” A man dressed in trendy clothes dismissed the idea.

“Hurry up and get ready to start the live broadcast. Many people are already waiting to watch this episode of exploring the Longyin Reservoir.” He continued, addressing the people around him.

A while ago, rumors about a water monster in the Longyin Reservoir, along with a video supposedly capturing it, had made the reservoir quite famous for a time.

However, as time passed, people gradually forgot about it. Even when it was occasionally mentioned, most believed it was just a CG composite.

After all, over the years, there had been countless water monster rumors, but none had ever been seen by many people in reality. If it wasn’t witnessed by many, it had to be fake!

This online celebrity thought the same.

His main content involved live streaming from various eerie and terrifying places, a fixed style that had garnered him many followers.

“Brother Long is right, we’re already here. Are you still afraid of some water monster?”

“We’ve been to so many supposedly haunted places before. Did anything ever happen? It was all fake!”

A tall and robust man agreed at this moment.

The others thought for a bit and then nodded.

“Hello everyone, I’m Brother Long!”

“Look, I’ve already arrived at the Longyin Reservoir! Before, Big B got so scared here that his legs went weak, right? They only dared to come during the day. I’m here at night to see if there’s really a water monster!”

The incident where that online celebrity Big B almost got eaten by a water monster had been sensational at the time. But later, when it turned out that Big B wasn’t dead, many suspected he had faked it for show.

Even now, many people didn’t believe it.

“Brother Long is awesome!”

“Weren’t there a lot of people at the Longyin Reservoir before? There’s no water monster there!”

“I think Big B’s live broadcast back then also had special effects.”

“Supporting Brother Long!”

“……”

As soon as the live broadcast started, a large number of comments began to appear.

Seeing his popularity rising, Brother Long felt very pleased.

“Haha, that waste Big B, after that incident, didn’t dare to come back. He was just putting on a show to fool you all!” Brother Long said as he held up the phone on a selfie stick and walked forward.

The others turned on their flashlights, shining them around.

In this environment, with only flashlights for illumination, they didn’t feel scared at all.

This team had actually visited many places reputed to be haunted, with far more terrifying rumors than those about the Longyin Reservoir. Their mental fortitude had grown much stronger as a result.

“We’re almost at the water’s edge. In a bit, we’ll search along here…” As Brother Long was speaking, smiling and taking a selfie, he vaguely saw a faint white light ahead.

“What’s that!?” Seeing this, his eyes widened suddenly.

“It looks… like there’s a light!” The others noticed too and pointed their flashlights at the reservoir’s surface.

Light!

A bright white light appeared underwater!

Gulp.

Seeing this, everyone swallowed, their bodies instinctively tensing up.

“Let’s go check it out! It really looks like there’s something there!”

Brother Long was the first to react, rushing forward directly.

If a water monster were actually discovered in Longyin Reservoir, the live broadcast would definitely explode in popularity!

After all, since Big B’s incident, many other streamers and internet celebrities had come by, but none had found any water monster.

If a water monster really appeared tonight and they captured it live on their stream…

It would go viral!

“Brother Long, wait for us!” At that moment, everyone hurriedly followed after the monster.

The flash of white light that had appeared quickly disappeared.

They stood at the shore, shining their flashlights into the water, but they couldn’t see anything at all.

“Did we just imagine it!?” One of the men couldn’t help but speak up.

“Impossible!”

“I saw it too, there definitely was a white light.”

“I saw it as well…”

“……”

These people were certain that they had just seen a flash of white light.

It couldn’t have been a mistake.

“Is it a water monster? If it is, come out now!”

Brother Long picked up a rock from the ground and threw it into the water!

Splash!

The rock hit the water, causing a splash.

“Brother Long…”

The others’ hearts pounded as they watched.

They had definitely seen that white light earlier.

If there really was a water monster…

“What are you afraid of?” Brother Long was dismissive.

“Brothers, vote now! We just saw a white light under the water. If you vote, I’ll go down and get a clearer shot!” He shouted loudly into the live broadcast camera.

Soon, messages of people voting and sending gifts appeared.

Seeing this, Brother Long smiled broadly.

“I have a bad feeling about this…”

One of the men continued to stare at the reservoir, his flashlight illuminating the water’s surface, and he seemed to see something.

It looked like… a huge shadow!

“Brother… Brother Long!”

His eyes widened, and just as he spoke, a massive figure emerged from the water!

Splash!

Water sprayed everywhere!

Lin Hao’s enormous body rose up before them!

Having evolved into a Crazy Fire Flood Dragon Newt, his body had started to resemble that of a flood dragon, able to stand upright like a serpent.

Brother Long, who had been smiling moments before, suddenly froze.

The selfie stick in his hand fell to the ground.

A… monster!!!

Everyone was paralyzed.

The scene before them was terrifying!

This enormous creature had a thick, long horn and was covered in sharp, protruding black scales. Its eyes, like blazing flames, stared at them, making their bodies go limp as they collapsed to the ground.

Run!

Run now!

They wanted to move, but their legs wouldn’t cooperate!

“Flood dragon… it’s a flood dragon…” One of the men muttered, trembling.

The creature before them looked like the legendary flood dragon!

The oppressive presence of such a huge creature appearing before them was overwhelmingly terrifying.

“Roar!”

At that moment, Lin Hao opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar, shaking the surrounding area!

The men were so scared they wet themselves!

They all fainted instantly!

Meanwhile, in Brother Long’s live stream, the comments were exploding!

AN: Brothers, there’s nothing I can do about the update issue. With the work transition, you see I always write and post late at night, and sometimes there’s a delay in review. Starting next month, there will definitely be at least three updates daily. Thank you all for your support!

TL: Lol, not here. Author gets paid per chapter.
