Chapter 63 If You Can Do It, Then Do It
Sun Yuancheng suddenly woke up from his dream.
A gust of cold wind came in along the edge of the bed, startling him so much that the cold sweat on his skin spiked and goose bumps appeared all over his body.
His bones were trembling, but he didn't have the strength to close the window. He just half-collapsed on the bed, gasping for breath.
My throat was aching and my head felt unusually heavy. I guess the cold wind gave me a slight fever.
But he didn't have the heart to care about these things at the moment.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the scene of Li Ziyue's body hanging on the icicle appeared in his mind again. The dream was too real that he could not distinguish between reality and illusion for a while.
His heartbeat was like thunder in his ears. In a panic, he took out the phone on the edge of the bed and opened the system friend interface.
"Brother...I dreamed of you last night...I..."
He hesitated for a long time whether to send this message to Li Ziyue.
No matter how scary the dream was, it was still just a dream. It would be too suspicious to disturb Li Ziyue's life just based on a dream.
But...what if that was a prophecy...
Sun Yuancheng shuddered.
As early as the moment the infinite flow copy appeared, he stopped believing in science. Everything related to the copy was mysterious.
I have to admit that sometimes emotion makes more sense than reason.
His fingertips trembled over the dimly lit screen.
Finally, I clicked OK to send.
A reminder popped up on the chat interface: Sorry, the communication system is under maintenance, and it is currently 1% complete. All forums and player private messages are suspended.
There are still 18 hours before the repair is completed, please wait.
Sun Yuancheng exited the chat box irritably, and consoled himself that he must have been overthinking it. However, before he could feel at ease, he saw a message from a player before the system was repaired.
What caught my eye was a photo.
The moment Sun Yuancheng saw the photo, he seemed to have lost all his breath.
A thin young man was lying on a throne made of transparent ice, with a long sword that seemed to be shining with silver light inserted straight into his chest. His body was stained with scarlet blood, and the blood that was about to drip from below had been frozen into bloody ice needles by the cold weather.
His eyes and brows were tightly closed, with ice chips hanging on his dark eyebrows, and his lips below were so white that there was no trace of human vitality.
Sun Yuancheng felt the corners of his eyes twitching wildly, and his vision became blurred.
That's Li Ziyue...
What's going on?! Didn't I enter the dungeon?! How could...
[The weather copy of "Snowstorm Manor" numbered 1197 opened at 10 o'clock this morning. It contains what you want to know (smile). A kind reminder, if you miss 1197... I can't guarantee what will happen. ]
The person's avatar was pure white, and his name was just a meaningless black dot. Sun Yuancheng had added him randomly on a player dating forum before going to bed. He agreed to the other party's friend request and went to sleep without even having time to ask the other party's name.
There are still 18 hours until the chat system is repaired, and 1197 will be open in four hours...
Why did the system fail at this moment? Was it a coincidence?
Sun Yuancheng doesn't have time to think about these things now. He must make a judgment within these four hours.
He has never done a dungeon alone, and currently only has experience in two dungeons. The main storylines of those two dungeons were basically advanced by Li Ziyue, and he only played a miscellaneous role in them.
The difficulty of "Snowstorm Manor" is not low, and many veterans have almost died after entering it...
His fingertips turned white from exerting too much force, and his earlobes had long been numb from the cold wind outside.
To go or not to go?
There was an unbearable pain in his head, and Sun Yuancheng curled up on the bed. Countless noisy sounds hit his head directly, as if to smash him into pieces.
Fragments of the past flashed through his mind.
[“Geniuses can easily die young, you…”]
[“If the base is large enough, I can find you a genius on the football team. As long as you make some simple choices... geniuses are no longer rare.” The man turned his back, “I don’t need to carefully nurture a fragile genius to grow up. As long as the choices continue, I will always find a perfect genius.”]
[“As for the fragile genius,” he laughed, “I will throw him into the dirty mud, so that he dare not show his edge, turn him into a freak, and let the mediocrity and inferiority of them destroy him.”]
…
When he woke up in the morning, Li Ziyue leaned on the desk and ate hot glutinous rice cake slowly. His eyes fell on the screen of his mobile phone, where he was reading the messages sent to him by other players last night.
He has a picky taste and doesn't eat anything sweet and hard, but rather something sweet and soft. So Zhang Lian observes carefully and is able to buy what Li Ziyue likes every time.
Li Ziyue's behavior when drunk is different from that of ordinary people. At the beginning, a little bit of alcohol can make him so drunk that his brain goes blank. After drinking more, he will become more and more sober. When he reaches the limit of drinking, he will return to normal.
I just felt refreshed and even wanted to pick up a few math test papers to do.
It was also at the end of last night that he recognized Zhang Lian.
Zhang Lian really had too many points to spend, so he said, "He can't do it alone," and resolutely spent 800,000 points to come to Li Ziyue's world. He then spent 1,000 points to buy a small prop so that others could see his true appearance, and left Li Ziyue alone.
With the help of the dim light in the KTV last night, he accidentally recognized Zhang Lian and then he removed the props.
When he didn't recognize Zhang Lian yesterday, Li Ziyue felt a little embarrassed to eat the breakfast that Zhang Lian brought him.
He took a bite of the mochi.
Now that I think about it, he just has too strong a sense of morality.
Why are you embarrassed?
Thinking back to last night when Zhang Lian pretended to be ignorant while discussing sexual orientation with him, Li Ziyue felt an inexplicable anger rising in his heart.
Fortunately, Zhang Lian went out early in the morning, otherwise he would have been scolded by Li Ziyue sooner or later.
His mind returned to the screen of his mobile phone, and he saw that the second place on the standings had sent him a message before the system was repaired.
[I know you want to get your fan back. I found out that it appeared briefly in "Snowstorm Manor" recently, and it will appear again in the copy numbered 1197.]
The fan is in Li Ziyue's hand.
During the previous confrontation with [Li Ziyue], Li Ziyue hid a tracker on the other party, so he naturally knew that [Li Ziyue] had entered "Snowstorm Villa" a few days ago. It seems that the second place on the standings did not lie.
However, "Snowstorm Villa" No. 1197 has not yet been opened. How did the second on the list predict that the fan would appear again?
The second on the list added: [Please forgive me for concealing the source of this information. I can only assure you that what I said is true. The rest requires you to show me your sincerity.]
[After all, you need people too, don't you? ]
Li Ziyue curled the corners of his mouth.
The 1197 copy was opened at ten o'clock this morning. Originally, he wanted to bring Sun Yuancheng with him, but the communication system is currently under maintenance. In addition, the difficulty of "Snowstorm Villa" is one level higher than that of "Suicidal Farmer", which may be too stressful for Sun Yuancheng, so he gave up.
Sun Yuancheng still had a lot of points left in his account, and he himself said that he would not go to random dungeons. He would let Li Ziyue arrange everything. Li Ziyue was not worried about his safety.
Anyway, there is still a lot of time, and I can slowly pass on experience to Sun Yuancheng in the dungeon.
He stretched out his hand slightly, and a cloud of white-gray mist emerged from his palm.
Li Ziyue narrowed his eyes and yawned slightly.
Is it good or bad for him to get the "fog" attribute ability?
Is the future really that long?
…
[Welcome all players to the "Snowstorm Villa" dungeon. This dungeon will no longer send you to the player lobby]
Li Ziyue stood in the small space lit by fluorescent light, his eyes slightly focused.
[The system has been updated and a new live broadcast room is now open to you]
Just as he finished speaking, a large, insubstantial projection screen suddenly popped up in front of him. The upper part of the screen was cut into hundreds of small rectangles, and a person's head was shaking on each rectangle.
Li Ziyue was stunned.
Most of those people wore helmets of various shapes on their faces, so their specific appearance could not be seen.
"Oh my god!" someone exclaimed.
Then a string of noises rang out in the live broadcast room.
[Oh my god! ]
[What’s going on! ]
[It’s so cold! Is the host spending the winter there? ]
[Oh my god! Why are there so many people talking? Usually, only the host can be heard talking! Hey! Can you hear me? My voice is that sexy bubbly sound...]
[Ugh, I was wondering why I felt a chill down my spine. What a bubble. Did this friend eat too much bubble gum?]
This... Li Ziyue's gaze fell on the excited audience.
The system pops up instructions.
[Basic changes to the live broadcast room: ① Empathy: The audience and the anchor share the same feelings]
[All the feelings of the anchor will be reduced to 30% and transmitted to the internal test audience wearing VR clothes. It is kindly recommended that the anchor try not to hurt himself~ otherwise your audience will also feel pain~]
[②: Double vision]
[After the audience puts on the VR helmet, they will share the host's field of view and get a more realistic dungeon experience]
[Take off the helmet to get a God's perspective]
[Also explain the special function of the 1.6 version live broadcast room - "If you can do it, you can do it"]
[Function explanation: Before each round of dungeons begins, the system will randomly select a few players to enter the dungeon "appetizer" session and play the game with the host]
When this news came out, the audience in the live broadcast room was stunned.
[Fuck! What does this mean! Am I going to enter an infinite dungeon?! I used to see the anchor being chased by monsters, but now I am going to be chased by monsters?! !]
[Help! Hold on tight to Brother Li's thighs! ]
[Is this true? This update worth dozens of GB is so worth it! I actually came to play the game! ]
[Does this mean that I can have a face-to-face conversation with Brother Li?! Can I bring my midterm exam paper in? I really don’t understand the physics part about celestial motion!]
[No, if the audience is randomly selected, why is the special function called "You can do it"? Is there any other change? ]
[If a viewer dies during this period, the system will combine the activity, points reward, support from other viewers and other factors of the viewers who have not entered the dungeon, and send the viewers with the highest comprehensive ranking into the dungeon]
[I am dying of laughter. Aren't some of the 'bullet screen guidance masters' going to be sent to dungeon training? I see that each of you is quite good at directing the Jiangshan on the bullet screen. If you are good, then go for it! ]
[At the beginning of each round, the system will provide 100,000 points for free. The audience who follows the anchor to the end will share [100,000 points given by the system + points given to the anchor by other audiences] * 100 money]
[Oh my god!!! The base amount is 10 million! I’ll be rich instantly!]
[…I thought it was a joke… With such a high reward…Is it true that we, the audience, will die after being eliminated…]
[Won't]
[All penalties will be borne by the anchor]
Li Ziyue held his forehead.
Sure enough, the anchor was the one who suffered in the end.
To sum up the whole thing, the audience experience was improved, participation increased, and money was earned.
Although the anchor can obtain more points and has greater pressure, the system only mentions the punishment but does not reveal the details. Based on Li Ziyue's past experience, he guesses that anything the system keeps silent about is not a good thing.
The dungeon itself is difficult enough, and with a bunch of viewers who are no different from blank sheets of paper, what on earth is the system trying to do...
[We would like to inform you of the updated theme of the Live Broadcast Room 1.7 - "If you don't learn, you will die", which will be launched in the system together with the internal beta test of "Comprehensive Plan 2.0" in a week. The internal beta test list will be announced at that time]
[??? What is this? "If you don't study, you will die" What the hell! You actually came to class! 】
[It feels really interesting (not really), is the beta list still random? Can I buy it with points? ]
[That’s enough, big guy! Just looking at this name makes me sound so fierce, please don’t pick me, please don’t pick me]
The system did not give Li Ziyue and the audience too much time to discuss. Only a ranking list appeared on the screen.
[The "appetizer" session of the "Snowstorm Villa" dungeon - "Face to Face" has been opened. There are a total of six participants in this session, including five real people and one fake real person "insider" generated by the system based on the data of the live broadcast room]
The scene in front of him disappeared instantly. When Li Ziyue opened his eyes again, he found himself in a tightly closed room.
[Now we will explain the process to you]
[The "appetizer" section is a new section added after the live broadcast room is updated. It is still in the internal testing period and the difficulty is unstable.]
?
Did you take it out when the difficulty is unstable?
Li Ziyue frowned slightly.
[Six people are in their own rooms, one of which is a "safe room". The host gathers all the real people in the safe room to pass the level]
[At the end of each round, the host has the right to adjust the rooms everyone is in (warm reminder, if there is a traitor in the room, everyone will die that night (including the safe room))]
[Insider Mission: Ensure that a real person dies every night]
[Audience mission: You can follow the host or the inner ghost. The inner ghost may ask you to kill someone. Of course, the reward is also more generous. Please follow the "justice" in your heart.]
[Anchor Task: Gather the audience in the safe room (Friendly reminder: Please try to avoid the death of the audience. The fewer the number of audience deaths, the more gold coins you will get before the dungeon officially starts. The gold coins will determine your degree of freedom in the dungeon)]
[Currently available information: The probability of clearing the game with "0 audience members dead" is: 0.08%]
Li Ziyue sighed.
It's fine if the audience is random, but looking at the rules it seems like there will be people who will rebel... We're really being attacked from both sides.
Whether this "appetizer" can be eaten smoothly...it's hard to say.
He turned off the system and was about to take a closer look at the room, but his eyes suddenly stopped at the edge of the bed.
He saw a person standing there who made him angry at the sight of him.
Zhang Lian raised his eyes to look at him, and blinked obediently.
He held up a palm-sized toy puppy in his right hand.
Then he moved his fingers slightly and pinched it lightly.
The puppy uttered a milky cry.
"Woof."
