Chapter 6: Acting

Huo Yingsu sighed.

She looked at the document in front of her and then pulled up a small text program. She definitely didn’t want to communicate with the barrage directly.

In such a large room with many people, Huo Yingsu had to firmly hide her identity as a player.

...Unless she was strong enough to deal with them.

But her body’s data would follow her real body’s data.

That young miss Huo Yingsu who was lying on the bed weakly and might die at any moment due to blood loss...

In this way, it was absolutely impossible for Huo Yingsu to deal with other players so easily.

In fact, she only knew extremely basic survival methods.

*sigh*

And asking her to kill others?

Are you kidding me?

Huo Yingsu was born and raised in a peaceful era, she had never even killed a chicken, much less a person.

If she hadn’t been driven to her end or haven’t adapted to the apocalypse’s state, Huo Yingsu really didn’t want to raise her knife and hurt other people.

...Unless for self defense.

She’s definitely not going to hold back at that time.

Even if it meant that she might end up puking and uncomfortable, she had to do it.

Every world has their own set of rules. When the apocalypse came, those who couldn’t adapt would be reduced to be nothing more than cannon fodder.

But for now, let Huo Yingsu stay as the innocent young woman for the time being.

’Now what?’

Huo Yingsu didn’t have strong investigative ability.

She’s not a police officer nor in any related profession. Her job back then was only a simple office worker, working with the documents and data on the computer.

Perhaps somewhat closer to the HR work, so she didn’t really feel at loss with this work.

But it couldn’t change the fact that she was really not suited to investigate the truth as the mission requires...

Even if this investigation might involve some... uhm, supernatural matter.

’Perhaps it’s better for me to stay in that broken room?’

Huo Yingsu couldn’t help but think that way for a moment before suppressing this unreliable thoughts. With broken legs and her head throbbing painfully almost all the time, Huo Yingsu knew very well that it would be impossible for her to get out without using some special means.

Strength?

She has none.

Skills?

She has none either.

Even if she couldn’t complete the other two missions, being a player would give her more advantage. She would have five days to think about how to break out from that room and possibly escape from the three or perhaps four male protagonists’ scheme.

How it would happen later...

Huo Yingsu had absolutely no idea.

She could only take one step at a time.

For now, Huo Yingsu typed on the text box.

{What mission would you like to give? I wouldn’t guarantee accepting it, but I can listen to it}

After she finished typing, Huo Yingsu pretended to be working again. She still has many things that she had to do with the list given to her and through following the format given to her, she hadn’t finished her work yet.

...

[Oh, this newcomer is quite smart. I thought that she will ask questions directly and then got found out by other players]

[Hehehe, watching newcomers died brutally is always very interesting]

[It’s a pity]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, being too smart is not good, Miss]

[Just be a stupid one and entertain us well. Surviving the Live Stream Horror Survival Game would be easy at that time]

...

There were some people who gave infuriating comments like this, but Huo Yingsu ignored them.

She knew very well that these viewers only wanted to see everything that’s fun from the live broadcast, not caring about the people’s safety in the slightest bit. Because from the very beginning, their real intention of watching was entertainment.

What’s so fun watching people losing their lives?

Huo Yingsu didn’t understand she didn’t want to understand.

Thankfully, there were also other relatively mild comments that genuinely offered some advices.

...Whether the advice were useful or not was another question, though.

...

[In that case, how about if you try to go out of the company and just stockpile some resources? As long as you can gather enough resources to survive for five entire day safely, I can give you 10 survival points!]

[Pssh, such a boring mission and small amount of survival points. I challenge you to enter the company’s core research department and I’ll give you 100 survival points]

[Just the core research department? I challenge you to complete all three challenges hahaha!]

[If you can complete all three challenges, 1000 survival points are nothing]

[Tsk, don’t overestimate yourself. How about if I give you a task of getting another identity card and impersonate other people? I’ll give you 2 survival points if you can complete the missions]

[It’s such a simple mission]

[They’re rookie]

[Hey, how about if you just make trouble when you’re leaving? I can give you 100 survival points if you can make more than 10 people hates you at the same time]

...

Both rational and absurd missions were given by the viewers through the barrage after they saw Huo Yingsu’s message.

Whether she could do it was another matter.

But whether they issued it was another matter altogether.

In any case, the viewers were either stingy and only gave her 1 survival points for doing mission or even so generous that he was willing to offer 1000 survival points for her.

The good thing is that the viewers in the Live Stream Horror Survival Game basically had to be responsible for their words.

The bad thing is that many viewers in the Live Stream Horror Survival Game would often spout out nonsense.

Their missions are even bizarre.

What the hell making trouble in the company before going out?

Do they think that she didn’t have enough trouble before the apocalypse and had to play a high profile drama?

Huo Yingsu’s lips twitched.

But the other missions could be considered.

She typed on the screen again.

..

{How do you get another identity card and impersonate others?}
