Fishing Frenzy Across the Myriad Worlds: My Lazy Fishing Rod Goes Live

On the continent of Aetheria, where magical gears roar and steam dragons soar, the good-for-nothing young man Li Haoming wants nothing more than to be a laid-back fishing bum by a stinking ditch, content to take life as it comes. But one accidental cast brings up no fish. Instead, he reels in a mysterious rod bound to the Myriad Heavens Fishing Livestream System: the "String of All Things"!

From then on, Li Haoming's daily life is turned completely upside down. The rod claims that "anything can be caught," but will he reel in a peerless treasure or a catastrophe? It's all down to the System's random blind-box draws! Even worse, the more impressive the catch, the more "presence" it consumes, a form of life energy that could make him vanish on the spot. At first, only local yokels watch him catch mutant crocodiles that curse like sailors. Later, his livestream unexpectedly connects to the Myriad Worlds, and all sorts of extraordinary beings flood the chat: abyssal lords, angels of holy light, shut-in gearheads from the Mechanical Realm, and more, spamming the screen with gifts or death threats!

Though he seems laid-back, Li Haoming is actually a calculating schemer who watches every penny. A windfall drops into his lap? He calmly auctions off an abyssal magic bottle and fleeces some sucker until they don't know which way is up! Enemies corner him? He casts a line as bait, using specially made stinking chum to summon a horde of demon bats and teach them a lesson! He catches a bald elf child? He immediately turns them into "Treasure-Seeking Xiao Guang," a fee-based guide! Even when he reels in a living ancestor, a proud, tsundere princess from a fallen kingdom, he can still talk her into becoming his bodyguard and secret to going viral!
