Chapter 47 Performers (14) Jinjiang exclusively authorized the first release, guaranteed...
Half a month before the carnival night.
After the last regular performance, Ani ranked seventh. She glanced at the rankings determined after the audience vote and walked down the backstage stairs.
Ani had performance makeup on her face, with pink and blue colors adorning the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and bright yellow star patterns on her right cheek. When she raised her eyes, the camera was fixed on her bright eyes.
A light screen lit up.
Annie was familiar with the process. She leaned over and habitually took a look at the content of the paid comment. Then she raised her hand and made a heart shape: "Thanks for the gifts from 'Suck Annie till she meowed' and 'I'm a beautiful woman'. Thank you mommy for your support. Bobo."
The special effect gift created by the star coins was recognized on her, and cat ears were embedded in Annie's pink white hair. The screen didn't disappear for a long time. She was stunned for a moment and tried to make a heart shape with one hand against her face again.
"There are other tasks." The angel's voice was cold and calm.
"What?"
"There is a conditional gift."
Annie had never received such a thing before. She re-read the method of receiving it, which meant that by doing fixed things in front of the camera according to the requirements of the audience, the gift could be transferred to the contestant's account.
A very dangerous picture suddenly appeared in her mind. There wouldn't be a hunter who would agree to any request and play a scary game...
"We are a formal platform." He seemed to see through the illusion in Annie's mind, "Requests that do not meet the standards will be screened out by AI. Turn right to the adult area. The coordinates are..."
“Are you advertising?”
The angel suddenly became quiet. He had worked in the adult area for so many years that before the last iteration, he had been there for nearly a hundred years.
The viewer's request was to "meow in front of the camera with another contestant."
The request to redeem the gifts would actually affect other contestants. Annie could foresee that the A-level hunting area, which was uniformly supervised by intelligent life, would be in chaos. With spectators from various galaxies joining in, the actions of the contestants would probably become very unpredictable.
Ani looked around but couldn't find Ling Xiao. He is simply mobile, with a low presence, difficult to find, and seems to disappear or appear suddenly.
With his status, he really shouldn't appear backstage at the Crown Circus.
Liu sat on the other side and changed his shoes.
Ever since the last accident, he has been completely avoiding Ani. Even during training, he tried his best to keep a distance from her. Whenever Annie passed by him, he would act as if he had seen a ghost and was about to decide to reincarnate.
The Song sisters killed many hunters, and except for those who could hide or escape, there were few left alive. Only Ling Xiao and Liu were around her and could be grabbed at any time.
Her feet and calves appeared in Liu's sight. He was stunned for a moment, and his pupils trembled. Then, Annie squatted down and appeared in front of the mermaid. The two were less than 40 centimeters apart. She said, "Hey, senior, there's something..."
"No." Liu quickly refused.
"I haven't said that yet!" Annie protested.
"No, no... cough." He covered his mouth, as if he almost bit his tongue. Then he opened his mouth as if he had lost the ability to speak, and when he looked up again, he saw a different person.
Xiaoduo pounced into Ani's arms with a plop, and she was naturally knocked down. She raised her hands and kneaded his cheeks, rubbing them like she was touching some small animal. Those ice-blue eyes were full of love. He lowered his head to let her touch him as much as she wanted, and then licked her fingers stickily.
"Get up quickly." Annie withdrew her hand.
Her attempt to withdraw her fingers was stopped. The other person held her wrists with both hands, and reluctantly stretched out his tongue, licking from the fingertips to the back of her hand, and then to the protruding wrist bone.
Barrage: "Oh my god... I just didn't come for one day and I missed something!"
“Hehehe, hehehe, what a great scene. Liu Qing is going to go crazy when he wakes up…”
"Go and restock the most popular slices, they are very interesting! I used to think that mermen warriors were arrogant and warlike, but I didn't expect them to be quite interesting."
"Whoever gets close to Ani will become very interesting!"
"Ahhh Angel! Director, where are you playing?"
The angel's camera was simply facing Annie, but because he conveyed it so advanced and so clearly, even the audience could clearly see the mermaid's light red tongue licking the lines of her hands. The gloves that Annie was wearing for the performance were taken off by Xiaoduo, and he gently rubbed Annie's nails with his lips, revealing an innocent and pitiful look.
With this face...he would never look at anyone like this in his life. Ani thought.
Xiaoduo lowered his head and rubbed her hand. He was not very good at speaking, so his pronunciation was vague: "Master... touch, touch..."
Ani reached out and touched his face.
Xiaoduo was very satisfied and happy. Annie pulled him closer to the screen: "Thank you for Mommy's gift, meow."
She looked at Xiaoduo. The other person looked a little dazed.
The multi-eyed monster has limited intelligence, but unfortunately its brain doesn't bring any bonus to it. So Ani held his face and taught him several times, and Xiaoduo finally learned it clumsily: "Meow meow..."
The sound effect of a gift being unwrapped appears on the light screen. Then, the angel suddenly said, "Have you ever considered turning right to the adult area?"
The invitation letter had already been sent, but he was asking questions in advance, which seemed like a meaningless repetitive work.
"Well, it's not very good." Ani said, "My... um, the way, is not suitable for broadcast."
The screen immediately jumped to a page, the cover alone was enough to make Annie's eyes widen. The angel asked her, "This kind?"
Ani waved her hands quickly: "No... well, not completely, it's just that it's a little more outrageous than this."
"You like to be out of line?"
It is a problem, but there is no doubt emotion. As he spoke, the picture jumped again, and this time the picture was even more insane and morally corrupt.
Ani covered her eyes. Some of the contents were too harmful to the body and violated the simple reproduction concept of the mimic beast: "It's not this kind. You won't understand even if I tell you."
The angel eye icon on the screen slowly rotated: "There is nothing I don't understand."
"..." Annie took a deep breath, spread her fingers apart, and a little bit of her eyes appeared from between her fingers. "Then will you have dinner with me after get off work? I...well, I'll make you understand clearly."
silence.
The page closed, the virtual light screen disappeared, and the angel left coldly.
Ani felt that he didn't seem very happy.
Can intelligent life also be unhappy? ...Oh, it's already part of life, it seems normal to have your own emotions.
It was difficult to guess an angel's thoughts, and Annie didn't know what kind of play he liked. She turned around and coaxed Xiaoduo for a while, then gave him the command "Don't move, sit still," and stood up and backed away.
After the distance between them was shortened, Xiaoduo's passionate and attached eyes gradually turned into confusion, and when it exceeded a certain critical value, he suddenly covered his forehead as if his soul had been taken away, and when he raised his eyes again, he was already crying.
His ice-blue eyes were blank for a while, and then the interaction between the multi-eyed monster and Annie slowly returned to his mind. Liu's expression became extremely interesting. He was so angry that the corners of his eyes turned red, and the mermaid's thin face turned red with shame.
"You..." Liu could only squeeze out this one word, not daring to get close to Annie. Under her gaze, he could only say, "You are using my body now without even saying hello, right?"
What a terrible line. Ani thought.
"I used Xiaoduo's body." She said seriously, "I greeted Xiaoduo and he said it was okay for me to use it as I pleased."
"You clearly know that—" Liu said this, holding back again and again, his voice suddenly weakened, paused for two seconds, and then said, "You won't use me for anything else...right?"
If Ani wanted to do something really perverted, she wouldn't have to bother trying to convince him or control him.
She just had to come over and wave the taming whip in front of her face. The consciousness of the multi-eyed monster would suddenly pop up and use his body and identity to do some shameful things...and these memories and touches would also appear in his mind, ruining the reputation of the merman and crushing his self-esteem.
"Oh, you never know." Ani teased him maliciously, joking, "Maybe the audience will like you more if you do this, senior brother."
Liu stared at her smiling pink eyes, nervous and worried, but couldn't help but think of the gentle and controlling words she had used to coax Xiao Duo just now... The monster's brain was too affected. He moved his lips, not so much proposing conditions as finally giving in to his arrogant racial shortcomings. He pleaded in a low voice: "Don't do this, I will die."
"Well, then you've become one of the few hunters who hanged themselves out of shame." Annie teased, and seeing Liu's expression changing, his ice-blue eyes, as clear as crystal, drooped, wet with tears, but he barely held back, not wanting to cry.
Her conscience kicked in, she sighed and promised, "Okay, fine. I won't let you, uh, crawl on the ground like a dog in front of the camera. I won't let you take off your clothes either, is that okay? You're not so weak in front of others..."
Liu took a deep breath and whispered thank you. Then he wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand to hold the little pearl back, then turned and left.
Ani left the backstage and headed towards the factory.
The Song sisters were already waiting for her. Song Zhen was playing with a prosthetic part that was removed from the body of some modified soldier. His right hand was wrapped in a bandage that was slightly bleeding. Song Shuang lowered his head and recorded something on the screen projected by the communicator.
Ani leaned over to take a look and saw that it was recording the hunter’s name and a number was updated behind it. She asked, “What is this?”
She walked without making any sound, as if a pool of liquid was flowing from somewhere. Both of them were startled. Song Shuang subconsciously tried to teleport away, but Annie grabbed his shoulder as if she had predicted it. Song Shuang looked at her hand pressing on her shoulder and calmed down: "Number. The number of opponents killed."
Ani saw her name circled at the bottom and laughed: "I am a target too?"
Song Shuang did not hide it: "You are the big devil, the boss guarding the gate."
Anila drawled out, "Oh...come on, beat me." She had no awareness of being treated as a villain by her subordinates. She reached out and tapped on her virtual screen, which showed the names of the six circus performers ahead of her.
Actors who are inferior to her in terms of hard power cannot join this competition. These older actors who are more popular with the audience are more or less marked with some characteristics.
"The animal trainer of the Fireworks Circus," Song Shuang analyzed, "is an omnic with a production number of 'Dominate 65'. He is extremely aggressive and relies on violence to tame animals. His animal taming performances are not only wonderful, but also cruel for the sake of performance effect."
"I knew you knew them well." Ani nodded, looking at her with shining eyes.
"..." Song Shuang glanced at her, turned his head and continued, "We have investigated. He performed very poorly in the performance where the order of the animals' appearance was chaotic. His program seems to be only compatible with extremely regular performances. As long as he sneaks into 'Fireworks' and makes a little trick, he will lose his competitiveness."
The screen flipped, and Song Shuang talked about the next one: "The clown of the Neon Circus, the production line is..."
The two men successively identified various unfair competition schemes. The only thing that is currently ranked first is the magician from the Rainbow Circus who is helpless. Just as Ani was about to speak, Song Zhen on the other side suddenly said, "I have a solution."
She looked at Song Zhen. The other party sat there with a big horse and a golden sword, throwing the parts in his hand casually and catching them again: "Leave it to me."

With the promotion of Carnival Night in the hunting ground, Angel also arranged the best streaming plan.
Even in the off-season, Ani's turnover is quite high. Her background data shows an unprecedented payment curve, with mommy fans having an absolute upper hand. Under the strict supervision of mommy fans, excessive fantasies about her can only be carried out quietly in the anonymous forum of Red Net.
That is the part that the angels cannot supervise, and intelligent life can only watch as a visitor. As long as he has the slightest desire to take over control and gain authority, the firewall of the Red Network will be triggered to become strongly aggressive. Even if he is one of the seven highest-ranking people beside the Mother Goddess, he still cannot invade.
[Hunting Ground] Contestant Annie is so sweet. I wouldn’t dare say that kind of thing in the live broadcast room or I’d be scolded to death. Here I can say as many dirty words as I want!
OP: I have a hunch that her habits are definitely different from those of humans in the universe!
2l: We can build as much as we want here, right? This is the first time in all the years I’ve watched live broadcasts that I’ve found like-minded people on an anonymous forum. She has a face that hurts...
3l: Sweet girl is so cute, sweet girl is so cute, so cute... (unclear)
4l: I am willing to be fingernailed until it hurts. If I am a contestant like Annie, I can use fingernails.
5l: I don’t understand your composition, she is a human female! Most of the adult sections for human women are ** style, right? How do you determine that she is not? I said it's so hard to get a sister, why is the composition of her fans so complicated? Why are you forcing her to become a fool?
6l: The straight man above seems to be crazy. Ni's smell is too strong, Chosen Master, have you watched the live broadcast? Do you have any taste?
7l: Suspected to be a straight man in the closet. Any boring contestant will have a superb chemical reaction when he is next to her. I want to see Annie knock them all out. Being able to partially transform into an Zerg must be very powerful and painful hehe.
…
The hunting ground module is a hot topic, and netizens on StarNet are commenting on it very quickly. The angel withdrew his gaze and adjusted it back to Ani's perspective, watching the pink figure entering the waiting area on the screen.
On the night of carnival, as the grand opening approached, the number of replies to the post continued to increase.
Ani was drawn to be the ninth and finale. The finale was the Rainbow Circus, the group that housed the almost flawless and invincible magician.
She folded her arms and admired the achievements of the Song sisters.
Song Shuang, who can teleport, is adept at doing such shady things. Amid the fireworks and loud music, famous actors or their circus companions made mistakes one after another due to their advance arrangements, and the huge auditorium in the performance center took on a deathly silence.
There was no applause amid the cheerful music. There are only tens of thousands of mechanical eyes staring at the stage. They are like the strictest executioners, judging every performance. The disassembled parts on the table were scattered all over the floor, and then cleaned up by the chubby little robots.
With constant mistakes, the audience's judgment process has become more and more demanding and strict. There was a terrifying seriousness in their unchanging expressions.
Comment: "If I didn't know this was arranged by Annie, I would have really thought these famous robot actors were going crazy."
"By the way, the two contestants from the Song family didn't take care of all the people, right? I think there are still about 10 hunters left, and some of them are hiding."
"You didn't even show up for the last battle? No wonder you didn't become famous. Are you afraid of death if you don't fight for it, Star Sea Warriors?"
Annie's perspective was posted on the main live broadcast room.
The volume of comments surged, and the director's camera was facing her back as she stretched her muscles, then zoomed in, as if accompanying her at her shoulder, walking with her through the waiting area, facing the light and shadow falling on the girl's face.
The glittering decorations sparkled under the colorful lights, and under the alternation of light and dark, her expression seemed calm and peaceful amid the extremely noisy background noise.
Ani enters the stage.
She counted the beats in the shadows, and when the spotlight came on, her eyes were suddenly illuminated. The breathtaking acrobatic performance caught everyone's eyes. In a moment that the audience in the live broadcast room did not expect, Ani's figure jumped off the high platform like a flying swallow, and the rapid arc of the fall made everyone hold their breath——
Gravity seemed to embrace the figure, but in the blink of an eye, she broke free from gravity. As the neon ribbon was incredibly rolled up to the top, the lights intertwined, and the blooming crystal strips fell from the sky, and the sparkling luster dotted her hair and the corners of her clothes.
The next moment, she appeared at the other end.
Countless data filled the eyes of the omnics in the audience. After a moment, the warmest applause as the carnival night began rang out like thunder.
After the acrobatic performance, she once again took over the duties of the animal trainer, gently tightened her bright red leather gloves, and pulled out the long metal whip. When those strange-looking monsters saw her, they became as obedient as puppies, and if they had tails, they would have wagged them.
Liu, who was leaving the stage at this stage, only took a glance and suddenly grabbed the backstage curtain, his legs going weak uncontrollably.
...Luckily his performance is over.
Liu fell into a state of despair and madness. The envy that emerged in his heart was so strong that it was difficult to ignore. He felt sick, yet at the same time, he felt envious as if he was being manipulated.
Xiaoduo really wants to be there. Liu was going crazy. He was talking to himself quickly in his mind, arguing fiercely with another person's thoughts: "What's so good about lying at her feet? Is it fun to be enslaved?"
Another voice of my own emerged from my mind: "...Master, that is the master."
Liu: "You are free. What master? Slavery was abolished on this planet eight hundred years ago."
Xiaoduo: "I want to be led by my master."
Stream: “You don’t want to!”
Xiaoduo was very stubborn, even aggrieved: "I want to."
Liu: “…” Sooner or later, he will be driven insane by his school girl and this mentally retarded monster.
He communicated in his mind for a long time before convincing the other party to cooperate and slowly moved away from the center of the stage. Xiaoduo's sad and longing emotions infected him. Liu didn't dare to look at the stage. He rubbed his heart and tried to calm down his emotions.
The music changed, and the magic show ended. Annie lifted the curtain and appeared backstage. She shook her hair like an animal, and some of the glittering colored strips fell down. Sister Li, who was waiting for her, immediately came over, hugged Annie with a happy face, and showed her the real-time vote: "Baby - you are my favorite baby -"
second.
As expected.
Ani stared at the magician's name for a long while. Sister Annie also came over, but her expression was mixed with a hint of complexity. She sighed and said, "I'm still not as good as him. Magic 104, he was born to perform."
One of the few performance machines in the intelligent machine family, he was created specifically for the entertainment industry. Unexpectedly, after the Joker virus invaded the planet, he achieved unprecedented great achievements.
Ani stared at the changing voting numbers behind her name, then turned to look at the Rainbow Circus coming on stage through the gap between the curtains. Her gaze passed through the center of the stage and looked far into the distance, falling on the audience seats directly opposite the performance center.
Above the audience seats, two discordant shadows appeared among the omnics. The machines that the virus identified as spectators simply followed their own programs and did not respond to the two of them.
Song Zhen and Song Shuang. The sisters sat casually in the aisle at the top, seemingly only concerned with the view and not caring that there were no empty seats on the steps. Song Zhen raised his hand and gave a thumbs-up gesture, which looked like some kind of compliment.
But Ani knew that this was not the case.
She was estimating the distance.
What is Song Zhen going to do? Ani trusts their abilities very much, but this concerns her bonus and genetic medicine, and she really wants to know what solution the two have discussed. She talked absentmindedly to Sister Li, who was still obsessed with the reputation of being the leading actress.
Ani turned her gaze toward the stage.
In the center of the brightly lit stage, Magic 104 is preparing to take the stage. His magic props have appeared on the stage, decorated with colorful flowers. That location...
Annie suddenly had an idea. She realized what Song Zhen was going to do——
The two were talking in low voices on the stairs, their figures blending into the countless spectators. Magic 104 pulled out white doves from a top hat and then released a group of doves, to thunderous applause from the audience.
He played so steadily that even the most sophisticated camera couldn't detect any flaws. The applause surged into the center of the stage like a wave, and amidst the wave, a loud gunshot rang out in the air.
It passed by the warm applause, the alternating neon lights, and the released white doves.
The specially made bullet rushed through the white dove's chest, bursting out a cluster of bright rose blood flowers. As the white dove fell, the bullet pierced through the body of Magic 104 steadily and accurately, piercing and destroying it. A round hole appeared on his metal skull, and a wisp of green smoke slowly floated up.
The world was silent for a moment.
The intelligent machine race lives in a dual structure of network and machine. He is not dead, but without mechanical hardware, he can almost be regarded as no longer existing in reality.
The great magician fell under the gun, his black tuxedo stained with blood that burst when the white dove flew down. The hardware inside his head burned, electricity leaked out, and his body collapsed.
The silent world was paused, and suddenly, bright red error messages appeared on the surrounding screens. The audience turned their heads in unison, row after row, to look at the two uninvited guests, two unexpected living people, on the steps.
Their camera eyes glowed red and they murmured, "Virus."
“A virus that’s holding up the show.”
“Eliminate the virus.”
Tens of thousands of omnics uttered these words in unison; even if they were just mumbling to themselves, it was as powerful as a tsunami or a mountain collapsing.
The metal torrent had a target and it rushed forward recklessly.
