_1 Chapter 1092: Chapter 1004: Does a War Reporter only eat meals?
_1 As if wanting to make it crystal clear who the victim was, the camera not only zoomed in on Yi in the cockpit but also generously labeled his information—
[Yi, Professional Live Streamer]
Given the global player and netizen attention on Metropolitan News, this practically equated to global advertising—effective without a doubt.
However, Yi would rather not have this advertisement…
Because, what followed, was the scene of him being “utterly disgraced”…
“Lincoln!
I won’t let you off the hook!” Yi roared in his live streaming room.
If it was just a brief clip, it might have been the program group’s attempt to enhance the show’s effects, but specifically including his close-up shot and ID…
Only Lincoln could have done this!
Just as Yi was seething with the rage of social death, an unexpected notification sounded in his ear—
“Ding~”
Looking up, Yi realized it was a message from Lincoln!
Source: AllNovelFull.com, updated on Ɲονǥο.с0
Opening it, he discovered it was actually a payment QR code!
Before Yi could comprehend its meaning, a second message arrived:
[Pay up for the advertisement.]
“What!?” A baffled Yi became furious once he came to his senses, “What advertisement fees!
Shouldn’t you be compensating me for emotional distress?!”
[Your message has been blocked by the recipient.]
“What?!!”
Yi could hold it no longer.
This back-and-forth banter made the atmosphere in the live streaming room instantaneous peak.
On Metropolitan News, the comments exploded once again:
“[Replayed Classics]!”
“Scary!
Even through the screen my scalp tingles, and I’m itching all over!”
“This dude is too unlucky, let’s go over and tease him a bit.”
…
These comments weren’t just empty words.
—Yi’s streaming room was actually flooded with new viewers, comments like [LOL] and [Here for the pilgrimage] nearly covered the entire screen.
Yi was on verge of a meltdown.
Finally, the image faded away and Zhen began reading the next piece of news.
Only then did Yi feel slightly better—
“Next up, continuing with adventurer’s news: The Pacific deep-sea wormhole is undergoing some unknown changes.
Any time, if it is infused with too much energy – such as a nuclear bomb, it will explode into an array of uncontrolled space-time fragments, which will reassemble and return to normal within minutes.”
Translated into layman’s terms, it’s an update the developer team made to the multi-dimensional space-time tunnel.
Players who wish to explore the space-time fragments Easter egg don’t have to keep their main missions pending on the final step anymore.
Even if they have completed the main quests, and the multi-dimensional tunnel has formed, they just need to launch another nuclear bomb to create a bunch of space-time fragments.
Then they can repeatedly reload the save files to explore different space-time fragments.
Players who’ve chosen the monster route can do the same.
“Next up, I’ve got some exciting news to present,” Qiang finally got serious.
“This Tuesday, a new [Mobile Ball Venue] opened in Metropolitan’s western district.
I personally got an annual card and tried out this entirely new ball game.”
The news footage also switched to the inside view of the venue following his voice.
The new venue is vastly spacious, matching the size of the underground mobile ball field in the Forgotten Cemetery.
But comparing the disorder and violence, the ambiance filled with altered humans and post-apocalyptic punks in the underground venue, this new place is more harmonious.
The environment is neat and clean, friendly and refreshing—it completely looks like a modernized venue.
Playing ball here, weapons are even not allowed, nor is attacking other athletes.
—All weapons aren’t allowed to bring!
Barring physical contest for the mobile ball, even violent physical conflicts aren’t permitted under other circumstances—of course, the weight of the mobile ball also has been significantly reduced, now it’s only a tad bit heavier than a basketball.
Quite healthy and harmonious indeed.
Of course, rules can only restrain those who are willing to obey.
Qiang strapped on the electric roller skates, put on knee and elbow pads, a helmet, and stepped into the race track to experience this brand-new sport.
However, before he could complete a lap, someone elbowed him in the face.
Qiang, furious, retaliated with a punch.
Accepting the challenge, the opponent made a daring knee strike.
Qiang, with full physical resilience, braced the knee strike, raised both arms, tightly embraced the opponent, and then—
rolled on the spot!
In their contest for the mobile ball, they were already accelerating on the track.
Then all of a sudden, this move.
Acting under inertia, the huddled pair began to tumble crazily on the smooth track devoid of obstacles, executing almost a flawless rolling fire wheel move!
The final image was of a bruised Qiang standing in front of the camera, microphone in hand, wrapping up the interview:
“All in all, it’s a sport full of skills, with a satisfactory level of confrontations, and more suitable for Metropolis’ residents.”
“Residents and adventurers are welcome to get a membership card – I mean…
to experience!”
“This news item doesn’t include any sponsored content.”
After Qiang finished the last sentence, the footage returned to the studio.
Zhen squinted at Qiang and Qiang dodged her gaze.
Yi was taken aback before realizing, “Is this…
the money for those brochures?”
The audience reacted similarly:
“Oh my god, they met the standard for combat intensity.
Are the people in the Metropolis typically violent?”
“But you know, without body enhancements and fighting, it feels like it would be fun just as a pure sport?”
“We’ll form a team with my roommates and compete tonight!”
…
Zhen, with her well-honed experience, was still emotionally steady as she continued her script, “The First World Mobile Ball Championships will officially kick off tonight.
All registered competitors, remember to check your round and don’t miss the matches.”
“Interested viewers and friends, you can also keep following the broadcast.”
After a brief pause, Zhen continued:
“Now, let us turn our attention to a more distant place–”
“From another planet: the news from Pandora.”
“Out of Pandora’s eight hidden [Ultimate Challenges], two have already surfaced and one adventurer has successfully completed one of them.”
The director timely replaced the screen, broadcasting the thrilling scene of Xu Shenghan’s death-defying surfing in gigantic waves to global audiences.
This video had gone viral worldwide a few days ago, and its reappearance still stirred many exclamations.
Metropolitan News even marked Xu Shenghan’s ID and live streaming room, giving him a free advertisement.
Then, the screen changed.
Xu Shenghan in person was standing in front of a dazzling giant trophy, crouching, holding this surfing-board modeled trophy, gritting his teeth, barely lifting it.
From the veins popping on his forehead, people worried whether he could handle the trophy or would drop it on his foot.
Luckily, the award staff of Yunmeng were not so cruel.
After a “click” sound for a photo, they quickly helped him put the trophy down.
The photo of Xu Shenghan, his forehead veiny, teeth gritting, and his face red, was frozen on the screen for a full three seconds before it switched to the next scene.
Xu Shenghan was thus embarrassed, covering his face with both hands, shouting ‘socially dead’.
The news about Pandora was not over yet-
“Around the other Hunting Challenge that had not yet seen a first completion, adventurers began a fierce competition.”
“From the moment the [Burst of Strength] information appeared to the time of this broadcast, a total of 318,647,792 times deaths have occurred due to infighting among adventurers in the jungle of Pandora, which is 600,000 times more than before the [Burst of Strength] was revealed!”
“[Adventurer] has become the greatest source of crisis on Pandora, even surpassing the wilderness, plants, natives, and beasts.”
“The number of tombstones is so large that they almost flood the jungle.”
A large number of players were fighting in the jungle of Pandora, scenes flashed across the screen quickly.
There were people everywhere, battles everywhere, and deaths everywhere!
Because of the group fighting, Yi was frequently killed by others.
In the news footage, there were even eight consecutive scenes where Yi was killed!
Killed by an axe, killed by a long spear, falling into a trap and getting pierced by wooden spikes, strangled to death by an enemy at a narrow road, ambushed by an Annan native disguised as a tree, caught by a dragon knight and thrown from the sky…
All sorts of methods of death were endless and too horrific to watch.
In the simultaneous overseas broadcast of Metropolitan News, people were asking, “Who is this?” “Why is it him again?” and “Why is he so unlucky?”
The live streaming room where Yi himself was located had turned into a sea of joy.
But it didn’t stop there.
Lincoln had sent him a message again—
Another collection QR code and a comment:
[Advertising fee, two portions, you know the drill.]
“I bloody don’t understand!!
You better explain it to me!!” Yi shouted and sent this message back.
But–
[The message has been rejected by the recipient.]
“???”
“Why do they reject me and still manage to send me messages?”
“Wait…
ṅοѵǤᴑ.сο
You’re blocking me after sending the message?
Is this something a human would do!?”
Yi had a mental breakdown.
The viewers were laughing their heads off.
The news continued–
“These grisly deaths have even shocked the residents of the Metropolis and Night City, prompting them to send numerous letters to the TV stations.”
“Now, we are going to relay the contents of these letters to the adventurers–”
“Many residents believe, we should control the intensity of the fights to avoid excessive violence which could have a negative impact on society.”
Zhen paused at this point, seemingly hesitating about the following content.
But Qiang had already continued to read with a smile:
“Also, there are three times as many residents whose opinions on the matter are–”
“Ahem.”
Qiang coughed twice, adjusted his voice, and mimicked the viewers’ tone, saying:
“What are the war reporters getting paid for?
Deploy them all!
And the live broadcast as well, hurry it up!
Hurry it up!”
