The Boss Behind The Game Chapter 67
New Year’s Eve.
Countless yers walked out of the Mansion of the Dead in pairs toward the coast of the Underworld
Sea in Liuli District.
That was where the activity would start.

With the arrival of dusk, the coast was seen to fill up with ships and rafts of various sizes while the
shore was crowded with people.
The yers rubbed their hands together, waiting for the activity to start. They were getting ready to
compete with each other by sailing out to sea.
Lu Wu, who was already prepared beforehand then began to condense an enormous clock above the
sea.
[The activity is about to start. Everyone, please get ready, any yer that leaves the shore to enter the
ocean before the activity starts will be deemed to have forfeited theirpetitive rights!]
Apanying the countdown on the clock were countless brilliant fireworks that filled the air above the
coastline, illuminating the sky.
Soon after, the sound of the countdown bell rang.
Dong! Dong!
Ten… Nine… Eight… Seven…
One!
At the end of the countdown, the game notification sounded again.
[The New Year’s activity has officially started! This activity willst for six hours, all fish caught during
this time guarantees an umted reward. The fishing contest begins!]
Gazing at the sky overflowing with fireworks, all the yers cheered as they set sail with their mates,
heading toward the direction of the brilliant moon hanging above the sea line.
The yers who did not have guild warships or ships followed along, rowing their small rafts.
This activity relied mainly on the enthusiasm of the yers because it really did not depend on how
strong one’s ability was, but how much luck that one had.
However, because many yers had already seen the video of Ba Mu fishing, most of the yers
moved around in small squads. After all, if the Spiritual Fish was of a higher ss, it would be harder to
handle for one person. Furthermore, if there were more people, they could look after each other.
As for the yers who had neither Specter Ships nor rafts, they fished around the shoreline. Even
though the chances of getting a Spiritual Fish were lower, they decided to try their luck since this
activity was based on luck. Maybe fishing near the shore would bring about avish reward.
Not only did the New Year’s activity this time attract all the yers, even the Wood Spirit n had
rushed over due to curiosity.
They smiled widely as fireworks burst open in the skies and the cheers of the yers rung in their ears.
To them, this was one of the celebration ceremonies for the yers’ culture, so they joined in curiously
as well, looking at the yers fishing. They were so enthusiastic that they even set up a barbeque,
grilling fish for the yers that were fishing.
As the first yer caught a fish, the ranking board appeared as well. All the yers could clearly see
the translucent ranking board hanging on the upper right corner of their screen, stating their current
ranking.
Below the ranking board was an activity chatroom, an area where the yers couldmunicate with
each other.
After about half an hour, a hundred Guild Level Specter Warships sailed into the Void Ocean. Once
they entered this part of the ocean, they then went their separate ways, each choosing a different spot
to start fishing.
At the same time, the ranking board was changing almost every second, the ranking of the yers
moving back and forth. At this stage, it was hard to tell who would be the winner.
……
At the edge of a cliff along the coastline, a bald man held a fishing rod in his right hand and a bottle of
Wood Spirit liquor from the Wood Spirit n in his left. He took a sip of the liquor every now and then
lazily, but his piercing gaze remained on the water’s surface.
Shi Hu was absolutely sure that he would not win any of the top spots in this fishingpetition. After
all, a boorish and unrefined person as himself had no knowledge about fishing. Moreover, he was
clumsy when it came to fighting monsters to level up. He had entered thispetition just for fun.

That was why he had chosen not to work with a small team. Instead, he had found himself a remote
cliff edge to casually fish upon while watching the moon and feeling the sea breeze.
As for the potential harvest, Shi Hu was still very excited about it.
He was excited to send the fish that he had caught to the shore for the brothers of the Wood Spirit n
to cook scrumptiously and did not really care for the marks umted in thepetition.
From his point of view, he was just as useless as a salted fish. Rankings and rewards did not exist for
him! The most important thing was to wine and dine to his heart’s content.
Shi Hu effortlessly excused his mentality by calling himself a yer for life. All the fighting and killing
was too bloody for him. In his mind, to live a life of ease and leisure was the real relish of being a
human.
Drowned deep in his thoughts as the sea breeze swept across his face, Shi Hu fished calmly, not even
the slightest bit as nervous as other yers.
He had pretty good luck as he had already caught three marine fish, three Lischke, and a huge lobster
within two hours.
The ted Shi Hu nced at his creel, preparing to send his catch to the Wood Spirit n’s barbeque
stall after catching one more fish.
Subsequently, he cast his fishing rod and waited patiently again.
At that moment, the sound of the game notification could be heard, while a line of red-colored words
appeared on the ranking board in the upper right corner.
[Congrattions to yer Sun Qi who caught a Tiger Fish (Spiritual Sea level), obtained 500 points,
currently ced second on the board!]
When the notification appeared, a picture appeared in the chatroom.
The picture was of a white puppy enthusiastically holding a fish bigger than the size of its own body in
its jaws with a line of words below the picture.
“Sure enough, Gou Zi is the king of the game, obtaining a Spiritual Sea Fish, hehe, the Myth Guild
blesses you!”
Shi Hu cast a brief look undisturbed, then went on to admire the moonlight.
[Congrattions to yer Meng Shao Chun who caught a Blood Spirit fish (Spiritual Sea level),
obtained 500 points, currently leaping to third ce on the board!]
Another notification appeared, causing Shi Hu to sigh. He gazed at the ocean and nagged
uncontrobly.
“Those with great luck like to show off all the time, while those who have bad luck can only look in their
empty bags and weep. I curse all of the lucky ones and hope that they’ll stay single for all of their lives!”
After speaking, Shi Hu felt his fishing rod quiver slightly. He realized that a fish had taken the bait and
snapped out of his distracted mood as he started to reel in the fishing line.
It was just as he thought, the rod was easily lifted. Clearly, there was no good oue.
Yet after Shi Hu lifted his fishing rod, his mind went nk for a moment. What kind of trick is this?
A weird-looking fish with the head of a dragon and the tail of a fish was hanging on the fishhook. He
remained stunned for a while before he started using the Artifact to analyze.
After he saw the analyzed characteristics, Shi Hu widened his eyes as a notification was announced
throughout the whole region.
[Congrattions to yer Shi Hu who caught an extremely rare fish called Ao (Spiritual Sea level),
obtained 1000 points, currently leaping to the first ce on the board!]
[Ao (Spiritual Sea level)]:
Legend has it that during the olden times, the golden-colored and silver-colored carps wanted to jump
over the dragon’s gate to fly into the clouds and be dragons, but the moment that they jumped
over the gate, it closed, so they could only have the head of a dragon with the tail of a fish. Thus, they
were named Ao. Male Ao are golden-scaled and gourd-tailed while female Ao are silver-scaled and
hibiscus-tailed. Always roaming the sea, this kind of fish is a branch of the offspring of Ao, and its blood
is not pure.
(Note: This fish does not have the pure blood of an Ao, although it is listed as a rare fish, it will be
divided into the Spiritual Sea level. After the conversion of the umted marks, it will be listed as
the lowest type of rare marine species at 1000 points.)
Looking at the Ao in his hands, Shi Hu had a mental breakdown.
He had identally just levelled up as king of the game…Can I take back my words now…
