Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness
Chapter 154 - Chapter 154: Chapter 151 Preparation for DepartureChapter 154: Chapter 151 Preparation for Departure
Lapland is located at the northernmost part of Finland.
Finland’s domestic aviation network is extremely well-developed, boasting 24 airports in total, which is the densest and most developed domestic aviation network in all of Europe; however, there are no direct flights from Huaxia to
Lapland.
There are five domestic flights from Huaxia to Finland, but the only one from the Magic Capital to Finland is AY58, which Elvan had purchased tickets for. Unfortunately, the flight lands at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport in the Finnish capital, rather than providing direct access to Lapland, meaning that they would have to drive after disembarking, making it a long journey ahead.
The flight from the Magic Capital to Finland would take at least ten hours, and they wouldn’t arrive at their destination until the local time in the afternoon.
Bi Fang did not have a Finnish visa, but Finland is a Schengen country, so entry without a visa is possible as long as one holds a visa from another Schengen country.
To prepare for overseas missions, Bi Fang had long ago begun the process of getting a passport and long-term visas for some major countries. Going to Finland wouldn’t be a problem, and this migratory route was also entirely within Schengen countries, so there was no issue whatsoever.
But before heading to the airport, Bi Fang still had plenty to do.
With an hour and a half before the plane took off, he avoided Elvan and went to
his room to start a shopping spree in the System store.
Equipment, tools, various skill coupons.
After the desert journey, all of Bi Fang’s system-equipped gear had turned into ropes and bandages. Without buying new ones, this adventure would have to be undertaken in simple clothes, and he wasn’t allowed to bring much.
The migratory mission covered a huge span of time and space, requiring higher standards; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been an S4-Level task—a step higher than the initial S5 survival on the island.
Ordinary clothes, no matter how well-made, couldn’t compete with professional equipment, and Bi Fang had to make thorough preparations.
To this end, he spent two hundred Points to actively refresh the store twice.
The refresh was a new function that appeared after the System upgrade, costing one hundred Points for each refresh. After purchasing all the necessary items, Bi Fang tried his luck with another draw and surprisingly got a beautifully designed dagger.
The Extreme Force Tiger-Tooth Harpoon!
Bi Fang knew about the Extreme Force Harpoon; it was a tactical knife specifically designed for outdoor survival by an Italian company. In his previous life, he had seen someone use it, and it was very cool. But as it had been discontinued and turned into a collector’s item, the person refused to even lend it to him for a look.
However, Bi Fang had never seen this particular knife before. Unlike the usual Extreme Force Harpoon, this knife’s design was significantly more attractive, and its length was similar to the hunting knife he had acquired earlier, slightly longer than the usual harpoon. The blade was straight, with a black, non- reflective finish, and the back featured a row of ferocious, sharp serrations.
It looked more like a combination of the harpoon and the Tiger Tooth combat knife.
Unlike the hunting knife, which primarily focused on cutting, this harpoonknife was explicitly made for thrusting, while the serrated edge provided excellent cutting capabilities.
The handle was soft to the touch, with deep grooves, ensuring a secure grip whether the hand was wet, or held in a normal or reverse grip.
The sheath was also made of a special black rubber material with excellent resistance to cuts and abrasions.
Pleased with the knife, Bi Fang packed it away along with the other physical rewards into his luggage, and then both he and Elvan headed to the airport.
On the way, Bi Fang took a moment to report to the relevant authorities through his mobile phone.
Now, with his special identity, he needed to report when leaving the country. Although it was a bit more trouble, it came with several conveniences, such as when he showed his documents to the airport staff, the casual glances of several workers suddenly changed.
The staff whispered among themselves, one of them hurried off, and the others offered complimentary coffee.
After taking a sip, Elvan, for some reason, found the ordinary instant coffee especially aromatic.
Soon, a leader with a build comparable to Wang Yongbo strode over enthusiastically. After confirming Bi Fang’s identity, he even escorted them both through the VIP lane, avoiding the bustling crowds.
Declining the offer for an upgraded cabin, they boarded the plane without even going through security checks.
With the right credentials, it did not matter that they were carrying a knife, or even firearms; the airline staff would simply turn a blind eye.
The flight attendants, noticing the leaders’ respectful treatment toward Bi Fang, were intrigued. Tall, handsome passengers with an extraordinary status like him were always most welcomed.
Before Bi Fang could even take his seat, they flocked around him, eagerly asking whether he needed any services. Two of them immediately recognized Bi Fang, requesting his signature and a photo with him, and even Elvan received attention.
Everyone could clearly see that the two had come on board together and couldn’t be ignored.
All of this was quite unfamiliar to Elvan; he was just a bird expert, usually unkempt, occasionally not very light in odor, and he had only traveled in economy class, never having enjoyed the company of beautiful women surrounding him. He was at a loss for what to do.
After signing the postcards quickly, Bi Fang withdrew his itchy, tickled palm and wiped off the lipstick marks that had been stolenly kissed onto his face. After declining the flight attendants’ kind intentions, they settled down and quietly waited for the plane to take off.
Elvan was shocked to the point of numbness, or perhaps he had been unfazed by the presence of many beautiful women around him since Bi Fang had taken out that ID. Still, he found it unbelievable.
“You’re actually…”
“Shh!” Bi Fang put his index finger to his lips, “Knowing is good enough, don’t speak out loud, it could get sealed.”
“Got it, got it.” Elvan looked around and gestured an OK sign, staying low-key. He understood.
Elvan had never heard of such a young S4 Level official and was surely impressed. No wonder his skills were so outstanding; Huaxia was indeed full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
The plane was scheduled to take off at 10:05, with twenty minutes remaining. Bi Fang took advantage of the time before the takeoff to prepare to contact Liu Qian via phone, asking Wolf Fang to get ready in advance, but before he could make the call, his phone rang first.
It was Wang Yongbo.
The call connected, and Wang Yongbo, as usual, exchanged brief pleasantries without beating around the bush and directly asked.
“Bi Fang, I heard the people from Shark TV came looking for you again?
The two were well-acquainted, and Wang Yongbo had a very down-to-earth demeanor, speaking without reservation and quite frankly.
in the live streaming industry, not much was secret; other companies would know about executives’ plans the next day, and Wang Weifeng’s moves could not be hidden from those who were paying attention, prompting Wang Yongbo to call and inquire.
Hearing this, Bi Fang chuckled, “Oh, I was wondering why CEO Wang suddenly gave me a call. So it’s because you’re worried I might transfer, huh?”
“How can I not worry? Given your current status, I’m afraid they might offer a price we at Wolf Fang couldn’t handle.
“Then, CEO Wang, rest easy. Unless Shark plans to make me the boss, I m not going back there.”
After hearing this, Wang Yongbo didn’t doubt him. He would call Bi Fang after every live broadcast and had gotten to know his character and temperament through several interactions. Knowing that Bi Fang, though easy to get along with, actually had a lot of pride and wasn’t someone who could be easily swayed or controlled. However, it was better to clarify certain concerns.
“That’s good to hear. Actually, I called to discuss a raise with you.” Wang Yongbo, sitting in his chair, looked at the newly drafted contract and changed the subject.
He knew Bi Fang’s character, but that didn’t mean the higher-ups did too. Hearing that Shark was approaching Bi Fang again, the top executives panicked and decided in an overnight meeting to increase Bi Fang’s salary. The original annual salary of ten million was directly tripled and more, going up to thirtyeight million, the highest tier.
“President Wang, let’s not rush into the salary increase. I have something here I’d like to ask for your help with. I was about to call Liu Qian, but since the plane is about to take off, and you’ve called, let me just tell you now.”
Wang Yongbo instinctively straightened up, and his demeanor immediately turned serious, “Okay, go ahead.”
“I’ve already finalized the details for the next live broadcast, which will be tomorrow.”
“That soon?” Wang Yongbo was shocked. Wasn’t it less than a week since the last one ended?
“Can’t help it, urgent matters require quick action.”
“All right, give me the location and content, and I’ll get people on it right away to make sure the promotion is on point.”
“I’ll be leading migratory birds on their journey.”
Wang Yongbo paused, “Sorry, I didn’t quite understand. What do you mean by leading migratory birds? Are we talking about observing their migration and filming a documentary or something? That’s right, you’ve been injured, so continuous high-intensity live broadcasting would be too much; something more relaxed is great, as escalating the excitement too much for the audience could backfire in the long run.”
“No, it means I’ll be gliding in a glider, leading the migratory birds for three thousand kilometers.”
Bi Fang shook the map in his hand, measuring the distance from the Arctic Circle to Southern France, which was more than fifty centimeters on the map. Using the scale, the direct distance was two thousand five hundred kilometers. Um, considering intentional detours, three thousand was within reach.
