"DAMN IT! Who the hell digs a pit on a beach?!"
After about ten minutes, the blue-haired young man finally managed to climb out of the pit on the beach.
But just as he put his hand on the edge, a foul stench made him retch uncontrollably.
"Bleargh! The person who dug this pit is an absolute animal! They even put... that... in here!"
The more he smelled it, the more he wanted to vomit.
The salty sea breeze, combined with the damp sand, made the young man want to die.
"A psychopath! Not only did they dig a pit on the beach, but they also filled it with this foul-smelling stuff! Are the people at St. Freya out of their minds?"
The blue-haired young man muttered curses as he took a couple of steps forward, trying to figure out how to get away from this disgusting beach. However, fate has a funny way of making people laugh and cry.
The next thing he stepped on made his face turn green on the spot, as if he had been instantly painted with a layer of green paint.
SNAP! A crisp sound exploded next to his ear. He looked down at his right foot, and his pupils dilated in disbelief—he had stepped on a bear trap!
The trap looked ridiculous against the backdrop of the sandy beach, but the intense pain was no joke... and the worst part was, it was coated in pepper spray!
"AHHHHHHH!!!!" His scream instantly filled the entire beach, startling even the nearby seagulls. (For a visual, just imagine our dear Tom the Cat.)
As intense pain shot through him, the blue-haired young man couldn't help but clutch his foot and start hopping backward on the sand like a fish out of water.
However, in his clumsy struggle, his foot slipped again, and he fell, without warning, back into that terrifying sandpit with a loud "thud!"
And this time, it took him... twenty minutes to climb back out.
"I'll kill him! I'll definitely kill him!"
When the young man climbed out again, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Since his birth, he had never been treated like this!
He swore he would kill the person who had set up these torturous traps!
However, after taking another step, he stopped in his tracks.
He carefully examined the beach before him, a growing suspicion in his eyes.
"Hmph!"
The young man snorted, and a powerful energy instantly swept across the entire beach.
Countless thumbtacks, bear traps, and even pits were all swept away by his powerful force.
"Heh, hehehe! You really underestimate me. You think you can stop me, the Sovereign of Anti-Entropy, with these childish tricks?!"
The young man flashed a wicked smile and then walked towards the small grove ahead.
However, the moment his leg crossed into the grove, the young man froze again.
A bucket filled with a suspicious liquid tipped over from above his head, drenching him completely.
"What is this stuff now?! Damn it, I can't see!"
No matter how much the young man struggled, he couldn't get the liquid off his body.
Then, he suddenly realized what it was.
"DAMN IT, IS THERE NO END TO THIS?! THERE'S GLUE TOO?! AND IT'S 502 SUPERGLUE!!!"
The young man was on the verge of going insane!
He threw caution to the wind and charged forward.
But the next moment, his face went rigid again.
"What... my legs won't move?"
The young man tried to struggle, but he found that his thighs seemed to be deeply embedded in something.
"Concrete?! What kind of move is this?!"
The young man couldn't for the life of him figure out what kind of twisted mind the person who set these traps had to come up with this pile of low-damage, but extremely high-humiliation contraptions.
(￣ー￣〃)
Wait a minute, why does this plot feel a bit familiar?
Hold on, is there some kind of strange trap about to be sprung on me?
For some reason, the young man suddenly felt like he knew what was going to happen next.
WHOOSH!
Just then, a log as thick as a pillar suddenly swung out from the side and slammed into him.
"I knew it!"
Feeling the massive impact from the front, the young man... promptly passed out.
Then, his body was sent flying into the nearby small river, where it sank straight to the bottom.

"What is going on today?! Where are my fish?!"
After three hours of fishing and still not seeing so much as a shadow of a minnow, Mo Wang finally flew into a helpless rage.
"This is impossible?! Why are there no fish? Did I not use enough bait?"
Mo Wang fell into deep thought, but the dozen or so empty packaging bags next to him indicated that the amount of bait he had used probably weighed more than all the fish in this river.
"Don't tell me I'm going to get skunked today?"
The moment Mo Wang considered this possibility, he became furious!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! As a top 100 angler among QQ friends of Happy Fishing Master, a veteran fishing master recognized by Jeremy Wade himself, and a senior member of the Teyvat Fishing Association, how could I possibly get skunked?!"
"Pump the water! I must pump the water!"
In a fit of rage, Mo Wang decided on the spot to find someone to pump all the water out of this river.
But just then, his fishing rod suddenly twitched.
"Holy crap! A bite, finally?!" Feeling the tug on his rod, Mo Wang's expression instantly turned serious.
At this moment, he felt as if he had been possessed by all the fishing masters of history, his fishing skills instantly maxed out.
"Behold, my Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Casts!!!!"
As Mo Wang fiercely yanked his rod back, his eyes, once full of hope, were now completely dead.
"What the hell?!"
When Mo Wang saw what had been pulled out of the water, his expression turned to one of terror.
That blue hair and pale face all indicated that he had... somehow caught a corpse.
Although he had heard the strange rumors about anglers being able to catch anything but fish.
And he had seen videos of various anglers pulling up corpses while fishing.
But for Mo Wang, who was experiencing this for the first time, he was so scared he almost dropped the fishing rod in his hand.
"Good grief! This is just a meme! How did I actually manage to fish up a person?! You can't be serious!"
But just as Mo Wang was trying to decide whether to notify Theresa or call the police first, the 'corpse' he had just reeled in suddenly spat out a small fish from its mouth.
"Huh? It's still alive?"
