Chapter 38: Lock Picking

Huo Yingsu didn’t understand how her live broadcast ended up with an offline fight between the viewers.

After all, she didn’t even know who they were and where they were located.

But she had no time to care about it.

Tuck.

Tossing the nth broken hairpin on the side, Huo Yingsu sighed and rubbed her forehead. The sky had darkened and there were many evolved insects roaming outside. The shouts and scream had never stopped, but Huo Yingsu never looked out of the window.

She didn’t want to see the scene of these evolved insects devouring humans.

It would affect her appetite and mental state.

The former is more important.

*cough*

Because Huo Yingsu was now busy eating the canned food that she ’raided’ from the laboratory. She recognized the brand and since it was sealed shut and the content was still very good, she didn’t hesitate to eat and drink.

Filling her stomach and all made Huo Yingsu very comfortable.

She took out her phone and then checked the apartment’s message and other news report. Perhaps there were still some people who were very dedicated to their work and published these things in the internet?

As it turned out, Huo Yingsu was right.

She found a lot of them.

But most of them came from neighboring city who filmed the situation from a distance. They should use some drone or other technology to achieve this.

Huo Yingsu was not entirely sure about that.

...

Pan Hailin: Yingsu, are you still there? I’m afraid

Huo Yingsu: Pan Hailin? What happened?

Pan Hailin: Everyone is discussing whether the army will arrive in time or not and whether we should do something to fight back. But most people are too terrified to come out when they saw the pile of corpses outside

Huo Yingsu: ...Have you found the weakness of these evolved insects? If you can’t even deal with them, it’s absolutely impossible to go out if you’re just going to seek death

Pan Hailin: Ah, I know. My parents used fire thrower and it seems that the insects are naturally wary. Moreover, the effect of insect repellants are still very good and these evolved insects still retain this weakness.

Huo Yingsu: Hmm... it’s risky to come out at this time and it’s night time. You might want to rest and try tomorrow if it’s really necessary.

Pan Hailin: I’ll consider it.

...

Seeing the chat, Huo Yingsu shook her head helplessly.

She knew very well that Pan Hailin was just a native in this world and it was unlikely for Huo Yingsu to meet with the other party again in the future.

The number of players were fixed after the arrival of the apocalypse.

While non player still has the ability to gain some abilities one way or another, but they didn’t have the advantage of the players who could traverse to other worlds and collect special resources and equipment.

In this way, the only way for Huo Yingsu to meet with Pan Hailin again was for her to come to this world again.

But how could it be?

The Live Stream Horror Survival Game wouldn’t give such convenience to them.

So Huo Yingsu could only sigh.

She went to the bed and fell asleep almost immediately.

The next day, Huo Yingsu stared blankly at the unfamiliar ceiling. The memory of her previous day’s experience resurfaced inside her mind and Huo Yingsu sat up, only to feel sharp pain from her ankle and joints.

Her face contorted in pain.

For an ordinary person to suddenly ran around like a madman for a long period of time, straining her legs and muscles without giving it any chance to relax afterwards...

How could she expect to be fine?

"I should have massaged my legs yesterday..." Huo Yingsu’s legs trembled as she stood up and propped her body with the wall.

Those who didn’t know might think that she has a terminal illness because of her current appearance.

But thinking that she had indeed been running around for a long time...

Huo Yingsu closed her eyes painfully.

She browsed the mall and silently bought muscle relaxant or something that was useful to help her recover faster.

...

[Pfft! Hahahaha! Seeing Huo Yingsu’s face contort in pain, it’s really enjoyable]

[Oh, she’s already up. Good morning, Miss Huo Yingsu]

[The number of the players have decreased significantly and even the so called native players are decreasing at rapid speed.]

[It couldn’t be helped. Most of them are newbies who have only passed one game since they’re selected on May]

[The players selection for the fifth month will directly spiked up, making the best low ground battleground extremely lively. I really like those players selected on the fifth month because many of them are only of subpar quality and their way of dying are very unique]

[Hahaha, that’s right! I remember that one of them...]
