Chapter 29: Horror Livestream Room (29)

The hacker stared at the screen on the computer, widening their eyes in disbelief and even rubbing them to make sure they weren’t seeing things.

No way!

Was this for real? So beautiful!

It must be fake!

Definitely fake! No one could look this good!

On the screen, the young boy had a delicate appearance that seemed almost unreal. His eyebrows and eyes were drawn as if by the heavens themselves, with the tail of his phoenix eyes slightly lifted and a teardrop mole adorning the corner of his eye. He looked extraordinarily beautiful, like the gorgeous peach blossoms in full bloom on a branch in early spring.

At that moment, the young boy was huddled in a chair, slightly bowing his head and engrossed in playing with his phone, completely focused.

The hacker’s rationality told them that this couldn’t be a real person. It was highly likely that they had stumbled upon some kind of phishing website.

Reluctantly, the hacker glanced at the breathtaking youth on the screen and once again began typing on the keyboard, preparing to crack the code.

However, despite multiple attempts, the result remained the same. There was no trace of failure to be found.

The hacker even tried to black out the game screen the young man was playing, but this only intensified their disbelief.

Hmm... perhaps this really was the foul smelling keyboard warrior from the internet...

The hacker looked at the stunning boy on the screen and then glanced at the comments that were flooding in after the young boy’s exposure. They fell into silence.

Their rationality told them that the young boy was in the wrong and should be morally condemned.

But their thoughts were going against their principles, and they began to feel that the young boy had done nothing wrong; it was others who were being too extreme.

The hacker suddenly understood why those people had no shame.

In fact, it wasn’t just the hacker who shared the same thoughts. There were others.

When the hacker livestreamed the screen online, the internet exploded.

[Damn! Who the hell is this!?]

[Could it be some kind of virtual modeling game!? How did the quality suddenly improve like this!?]

[Damn it! Even if it’s this beautiful, I’m willing to play this crappy game!]

[Hurry up and release it! I’m willing to go bankrupt to play it!]

[Weren’t we just discussing how to deal with those idiots? Could this be their tactic? To divert our attention?]

[Is no one reading the title? This is the foul smelling keyboard warrior you guys are defending, right? It can’t be what I think... right?]

[Ha... Haha... Impossible, right?]

However, reality proved them wrong because those idiots once again flooded the chat, shouting about Qingqing and their wife.

Fans: “...”

No matter how the internet exploded, it had nothing to do with Ruan Qing. Ruan Qing was continuing to focus on developing in the game.

He was using a powerful jungle hero. As long as he developed well, he might even be able to take on five opponents alone.

So even if people were slandering him, Ruan Qing was still striving to grow in the midst of it all.

When the hacker saw the boy being bullied in the game, they quietly displayed the game interface in a split screen on the livestream.

As the game progressed to the mid-late stage, the boy’s development was also decent. At this point, all of his teammates died, leaving only him.

On the other side, there were still four opponents, and it seemed like an inevitable defeat.

However, the boy didn’t seem panicked. He patiently laid in ambush and directly eliminated the enemy’s damage output as they passed by, then executed some impressive moves, wiping out the enemy team.

At this point, only he was left alive in the game. As long as he destroyed the enemy’s base, he would win.

Ruan Qing controlled his character and swiftly approached the enemy’s base, but it was just one second before he could destroy it.

His teammates... surrendered.

The boy seemed to still be in disbelief, staring blankly at the defeat notification on the screen, a hint of confusion on his delicate face.

After a few seconds, it seemed like the boy finally realized what had happened. His beautiful eyes were instantly filled with mist.

The boy looked helpless and fragile, but he bit his lower lip and tried hard to hold back his tears, refusing to let them fall.

[Ding dong!] The phone system suddenly prompts, [Received a transfer of 50 yuan.]

The young boy paused for a moment, opened his balance, and saw a clear 50.30 yuan displayed on it.

He blinked his eyes, and it seemed like there were flowing lights shimmering within his pupils, radiating a dazzling brilliance that momentarily dimmed the world.

It was evident that the young boy was no longer as distressed.

However, what the young boy didn’t notice was that the balance checking interface displayed his social media account, and at this moment, his phone screen was being livestreamed.

Ruan Qing lowered his gaze and looked at the balance. Although the money was still not enough for rent, it should be fine in a little while.

At least he didn’t need to worry about food anymore. Ruan Qing took out a steamed bun once again.

Just as he was about to take a bite, he suddenly received a message, [Jue: Sorry, it wasn’t me just now. Can we play another round?]

As Ruan Qing switched back to the chat interface, a flood of chat records appeared, along with numerous friend requests.

The phone instantly became stuck.

Ruan Qing pressed the buttons for a long time before successfully exiting the chat interface, and things improved after he closed the system prompt.

The message from ‘Jue’ had already been pushed down, replaced by countless requests to play together.

Ruan Qing continued nibbling on the steamed bun while glancing at his phone.

However, perhaps because he didn’t chew it thoroughly or maybe the bun was too dry, he ended up choking on it.

If it were a normal situation, it wouldn’t be much of a problem, but now he had an injury on his neck, and it immediately aggravated the wound.

Ruan Qing’s pain was instant, causing him to tilt his head back and tears uncontrollably streamed down.

He quickly picked up the glass of water on the table and took a few sips, which helped ease the discomfort.

The camera on the young boy’s computer wasn’t very good, but one could vaguely see the redness at the corner of his eyes due to the intense pain. His eyes were moistened with tears, and his long eyelashes trembled like wings with teardrops.

The young boy was too fragile, like a carefully nurtured rose that would wither and shatter once it was separated from its caretaker.

When the young boy tilted his head back, his gaze inadvertently swept across the webcam on the computer.

The people watching the livestream were immediately stunned. Even though they were separated by the internet, when the young boy looked into the camera, it seemed as if he could seduce others, causing their hearts to skip a beat.

[Darn! What should I do? I don’t know why, but suddenly I feel like the boss’s picture of a steak is wrong.]

[...Me too.]

[...Me too.]

[I’m sorry, boss. You’re great, but I have to speak my mind.]

Meanwhile, as Ruan Qing watched the faint flickering red light, his heart sank.

The next second, he quickly pressed down on the computer screen.

It was really bad.

If he guessed correctly, there was more than one killer in the horror livestream, and each time there would be corresponding prey and hunter.

This was a hunting game where either the prey died or the hunter failed.

And he was the prey.

His hunter hadn’t appeared yet.

Ruan Qing would never naively believe that the hunter would show mercy to him. If he were the owner of the livestream, he would definitely set a punishment for the hunter’s failure to ensure that the game remained exciting due to the hunter’s reluctance to show mercy.

After all, one-sided slaughter was never thrilling enough.

The time limit for the hunting game was seven days, and the best time to strike was on the first day.

But it was impossible for a player to die on the first day in this scenario, so there must be a balancing mechanism.

For example, the hunter might be unable to see the livestream, or perhaps they couldn’t see it in the first few days.

But now, the hunter could probably see him.
