Chapter 1
Li Hao is a live streamer who primarily plays games and occasionally broadcasts outdoor activities. He's known for his quick wit and quick reactions.
That day, she started her livestream as soon as she left the house. She watched the comments and saw people saying, "Why are you going out today?" "Why do you have to record even opening the door? Are you trying to increase the duration?"
She was talking nonsense. "Today is different. This door I'm opening isn't just any door. Every time I open it, I'll randomly appear in a new world. This hand of mine has the power to travel through time. My family, just watch me. I'm going to show you a new world."
Then, she pressed the doorknob, intending to open it. She had no intention of revealing her whereabouts. After opening the door, she covered her phone's camera. This way, she'd say, "Oh, suddenly, we've arrived in a new world. The darkness just now was just a journey through time." She'd already thought of the livestream effect.
Amidst the barrage of comments from the audience, a strange one slipped through. [Detection meets the conditions, the mechanism has been activated, and the space-time gate mechanism has been activated for random travel.]
But even if Li Hao saw it, he would just treat it as a spectator's play.
She covered her phone's camera lens and opened the door. A burst of white light shone in from outside. It was too bright. "What's going on at the door? It's so bright." As she thought, she couldn't help but close her eyes and took a step forward.
As her eyes adjusted to the light, she began to hear bustling noises, but the scene before her made her mind go haywire. She was at the entrance of an alley, where she could see the streetscape—a classic medieval Western street.
But what medieval streets, two-headed lion scorpions pulling carriages, and a man with horns walking close by, holding a woman with a tail and deer legs. Li Hao could even see the deer woman's ears fluttering gently. Delicate fur and incredibly realistic details. And then there was the standing bear man, his bared teeth and white breath. And then there was the thigh-high, bearded dwarf, swinging a hammer as he passed by her and glanced at her.
Was she on the set of Lord of the Rings? Was she just a small streamer, was someone playing a prank on her? All sorts of questions filled her mind.
Li Hao then realized that she was still live streaming with her phone. She didn't know when her hand, which was originally blocking the camera, had moved away. At this time, the live broadcast room was full of barrages. Hey, she was still live streaming. Was she being pranked?
This was the first time that Li Hao's livestream room was so lively. She was just a small streamer with a few hundred thousand followers and only a few thousand viewers.
--Great, sister. You did a great job on this scene.
--nb, did the anchor participate in some flash mob event?
--Great sister, you did a great job for us.
--It's impossible to tell whether it's real or fake.
"Good sister, you didn't really travel through time, did you? Remember to reach the pinnacle of life and don't forget your family in the live studio."
--You can live stream after traveling through time? Don't be ridiculous. I guess you went to a movie studio or something.
--The anchor effect is pretty good. Which film and television city is it from?
But when Li Hao looked up to see where she was, she completely understood that she was no longer on Earth, because there were two suns above her head, two suns that were several times smaller than the sun on Earth.
There were also those strange-looking orcs passing by, speaking completely incomprehensible words. She took two steps forward, and the orcs' appearances became clearer.
She still had some discernment, able to tell these were real creatures, not some kind of special effects or makeup. Especially the orc in front of her, less than two meters away. He had a tiger-like head and a massive body.
Her gaze even caught the other person's attention. When the two looked at each other, Li Hao clearly saw the other person's vertical pupils and the wet black nose.
The other party looked at him unfriendly, so Li Hao quickly lowered his head and retreated back into the alley.
She looked at her phone anxiously, and she kept exclaiming about the good live broadcast effect.
"I really traveled through time. Can you help me?" she asked, adjusting the video camera to face herself. She was sweating anxiously in the video. "As soon as I opened the door, I saw a white light, and as soon as I walked out, I was here."
--Wow, this was shared by a friend. The host’s acting skills are pretty good.
--Is Haojie going to enter the entertainment industry?
--There was an escape live broadcast before, which was also of this type. The time-travel live broadcast is also pretty good.
--Good sister, it looks like you've traveled to a magical world. It feels like something from Warcraft, with dwarves. Nb good sister!
Following these comments, many people started showering her with gifts. Many were drawn to the livestream. The number of people in the livestream room soared to over 10,000. The previous Li Hao would have been incredibly happy, but now that she'd traveled through time, what good would all the livestream gifts do? She pleaded for help, and everyone praised her acting skills, with many showering her with gifts for her exceptional acting skills. They said she was a steal and could break into the entertainment industry.
Li Hao realized that no matter what he said, the audience in the live broadcast room would think it was an effect. After all, these days, everything on the other side of the screen could be fake. After all, AI live broadcasts had been launched recently.
She didn't care about the livestreaming room and simply turned it off. Nothing was more important than her life. If she could livestream, then she could make a phone call. Besides, she had already traveled through time, so the events of the other world had nothing to do with him.
"Li Hao, you can do it. There are so many other people who have traveled through time before you," Li Hao encouraged herself, then walked out of the alley. But she quickly retreated as a giant, tiger-like monster passed by. It glanced at her and roared at her. Li Hao froze, and she retreated again. Only after returning did she realize her legs were shaking.
She took out her phone and started dialing numbers, from her parents' numbers to her friends to 911. None of them went through. It was strange that the cell phone signal was always zero. How did she live broadcast before?
She reopened the live broadcast room. Maybe she was frightened by the roar just now, and her adrenaline surged. Now that it has calmed down, she feels much calmer.
She opened the app and tried to start streaming again, and sure enough, it worked. She'd tried every function on her phone, and they all showed no network, but the live stream worked.
She only turned off the broadcast for more than ten minutes, and many viewers had not left yet. When the live broadcast was restarted, everyone rushed in again.
Li Hao ignored the chatter from the livestream audience; they weren't going to be any help. She said to the livestream, "Is the field control here? If he is, Q1."
Li Hao is a member of the union for her live broadcast. The union has assigned her a field controller, who also serves as the room manager for her live broadcast room. Looking at the eye-catching barrage of "1", Li Hao nodded and continued.
"Stage Control, please come to my house. Our plan today is to participate in an offline script-killing show. I've disappeared, and the only way to contact me now is through live streaming. You should know that I don't have the energy to put on such a show."
Li Hao raised the camera, allowing the audience in the livestream to see the two suns in the sky. He also showed them the entire street, not just the small portion they had previously seen. From the livestream, the street stretched for hundreds of meters, filled with hundreds of passersby. These orcs were bizarre in appearance. There were also a dozen terrifying monsters.
This clear and spectacular scene shocked the audience in the live broadcast room.
--No way, did the host really travel through time?
--Yes, Haojie doesn’t have that much energy. It would be fine if there were only a few actors, but not so many actors.
--There is also this scene, which is not available in China.
--Did I really travel through time?
Many people have begun to doubt, and many people in the barrage have raised doubts.
Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the effect. No matter what the audience thought, her stage manager should have known that she didn't have such powerful means.
She changed the front and rear cameras, and her face appeared on the screen. Li Hao looked at the camera sincerely.
"I really don't know what happened. I might have been kidnapped by some organization. Now all other functions of my phone are unusable. I can't make calls or use WeChat. The only way I can contact others is through live streaming. I need to pay attention to the battery of my phone. I will turn off the broadcast in a while. It will be broadcast again in about an hour. Sister Lan, I hope you can help me contact the people above or call the police. I really need help." After saying this, she turned off the broadcast.
The only thing she could think of was that this was all a joke from the gods. She had just casually said that she had opened the door to a new world, and she had actually traveled through time. If she had known this, she would have claimed to be a billionaire, so what was the point of talking about traveling through time?
You know, she definitely doesn't want to time travel. As a small anchor with decent traffic, playing her favorite games every day, her income far exceeds that of her peers, and she can even buy a house.
And then there's her family; she's a mama's girl. The thought of never seeing her parents again made Li Hao's nose ache. She squatted down, leaning against the wall at the alley entrance, watching the aliens walking back and forth.
Although she had only been traveling for less than half an hour, she felt a very strong sense of loneliness.
She checked her phone roughly every ten minutes. She knew battery life was precious, but it seemed only the sense of technology her phone brought could calm her nerves.
An hour passed, and she even turned on the live broadcast eagerly.
At this moment, the audience who had been following her live broadcast room suddenly became lively.
"Sister Lan, are you there?" Li Hao asked.
However, Lan Jie, who was in charge of the live broadcast room, did not respond. Moreover, judging by the profile picture, the room manager did not have the other party's account in the online list.
What Li Hao didn't know was that her live broadcast room had become completely popular. Someone edited some clips from it and successfully made it to the hot search list.
Everyone was amazed by the medieval architecture, as well as the lifelike orcs and monsters. Many people initially thought it was a special effect from a foreign movie, but later discovered it was a recording of a live broadcast from their own homepage.
It is now the number one trending search topic, and many people are lamenting that live streaming is getting bigger and bigger. Of course, there are also many people complaining that live streaming can be done so well, but why are the special effects of TV dramas and movies so bad.
The woman he had asked to be called, Sister Lan, was currently at a police station. She initially tried calling her private number, but couldn't get an answer. Then she went to her home and found the door open.
Sister Lan naturally knew the strength of her union, and Li Hao's strength as well. How could they possibly have caused such a big scene? It looked like something had really happened!
