The Angler: Hundredfold Critical Hits, Fishing Alone Through the Ages

Zhao Yu is a down-on-his-luck wage earner. He started out full of ambition after graduating, but gradually grew numb to it all, even learning to slack off from the old hands at work.

At every family gathering, he hears the same things more than anything else.

“Look at so-and-so. They’re the same age as you, and they’ve already started their own company.”

“Now look at you. All you do is fish. Keep this up and you’ll waste your whole life.”

“Why not come work for our Qi family business? You could at least become some kind of manager.”

With no other choice, he tries to fish his sorrows away. He arranges to go fishing with his supervisor, hoping to enjoy himself at the fishing grounds, when he suddenly acquires the Hundredfold Fishing Critical Hit System.

[Ding! You caught a five-jin silver carp and received a hundredfold critical hit: 2,700 yuan!]

Zhao Yu: “???”

…

And so Zhao Yu begins appearing all over the world, in the most primitive forests and along the Amazon River. He even makes the news time and again, all in pursuit of the biggest fish in the world.

“A TV host travels to Africa to film rare wildlife, venturing deep into an uninhabited region… only to find a fisherman from Xia Country fishing by the river?”

“Even the most experienced expedition team members struggle to navigate the depths of the Amazon River… Wait, is someone fishing over there?”
