"....." Xiao Shen had his inexistent lips twitch as he once again found himself in that strange dimension.
Yes. He had f*cking died again!
Cause of death: body overload!
Putting 200x the strength of a normal person in the body of said normal person was the same as tossing a ladder at a pane of glass!
He sighed inwardly as he reached his inexistent arms into the nearest clock and opened his eyes in his body once again.
The Old Baldy's corpse was headless on the ground, while he looked at it with nausea.
It was his first time killing a human being, but, it did not hit too hard on him after dying twice, no, thrice!
His body was currently brimming with strength, and any small movement could cause a body part to explode. Thus, he had to tread carefully until the gifts wore off!
Xiao Shen looked around the ruined graveyard, taking his time to slowly move his head around. Yes, moving his head with even with the least bit of strength would cause his head to fly off his neck!
He gingerly reached out and used as little strength as he could to lightly sweep his foot over the ground. The heap of sand that the Old Baldy had dug up earlier was instantly pushed into an empty grave, filling it up.
"Fair enough..." Xiao Shen looked at his foot and made sure that it was still connected to his leg. "I should try to cover up this location so that the police won't get involved..."
He muttered to himself as he carefully tiptoed over to the Old Baldy's headless corpse.
This fellow who had been stealing corroded was now a corpse himself!
"Wait..." Xiao Shen looked at his shadow and raised a brow.
It was only then that he realized the absurdity of the situation!
The Old Baldy was busy stealing corpses in broad daylight!
He looked at the trench his fall had created and glanced at the surrounding terrain.
Indeed, there was some sort of barrier surrounding the area and a hold had been created at the top.
"Haha, this means that there's no need for me to bother with cleaning up!" Xiao Shen sighed in relief.
He then walked over to the edge of the barrier and walked out of its area of influence. Then, upon coming out, he looked back and grazed the air with his finger.
Truly, after coming out, he could not go back in!
"Good." Xiao Shen nodded his head. He did not even want to go back in there anyways.
[Barrier creating skills are decent...]
[Breaking such a barrier requires an enormous amount of force!]
[Jiangshi master has been killed, the barrier will naturally dissipate by itself!]
[Anchor, how did it feel commiting your first murder~]
«[Event {Jiangshi Hunting} has been completed]»
Xiao Shen had the corners of his lips twitch as he looked up at the sky. "Many thanks to everyone who aided me with a gift! The completion of this event would not have been possible without you! Yes, it really is a strong barrier! And, no, while killing a fellow human being is against my morals, this fellow had indeed tried to kill me first. Showing mercy to a friend is benevolence, but doing the same to an enemy is foolishness, after all."
[Well said, Anchor!]
[Philosophical!]
[Philosophical! x2]
[Philosophical! x3]
He then forced a smile and attempted to bow, only for his upper body to violently tear off of his lower body.
He had forgotten about his condition and bowed using 200x his normal strength!
[.....]
[.....]
[.....]
[Did he just... die??]
***
"Aiyah..." Xiao Shen instantly reached out for the nearest clock to his position the very moment he came to in this mysterious dimension.
The clock spiral stopped and began to reverse, making him open his eyes back in his body.
Like before, the string of messages praising his reply filled the screen:
[Well said, Anchor!]
[Philosophical!]
[Philosophical! x2]
[Philosophical! x3]
"Thank you!" He forced a smile and, this time, made a very gentle slow motion bow.
He then reached into his pocket to take out his phone and find his location, only to pause in his tracks.
F*ck! He had been moving so fast that his clothes and everything on him were in shreds!
"...." Xiao Shen was speechless.
He slowly looked up at the sky and gently scratched the back of his head. "Uhh, viewers, I seem to be in a bit of a pickle..."
[Take the Old Baldy's clothes!]
[Sew up something from leaves!]
[Rob someone!]
[Anchor still looks so cool even in tattered clothes!]
«[### has gifted +3 strength pills!]»
Strength?
I need clothes, damnit!
Xiao Shen had the corners of his lips twitch slightly. He smiled and narrowed his eyes. "Thank you for the strength pill, viewer! But, what I need right now is a set of modern day clothing! I will agree to whatever request made by the first viewer who sends such!"
He remembered that in, a few livestreams he had seen, the streamer could accept commissions or requests from their viewers.
In an instant, multiple notifications resounded in his ears.
«[### has gifted a set of clothing!]»
«[### has gifted a set of clothing!!]»
«[### has gifted a set of clothing!!!]»
«[### has gifted a set of clothing!!!!]»
"Haha, thank you all for the gifts, but the first one only came from Viewer..." Xiao Shen chuckled lightly, but then frowned in confusion.
Wait, why the hell were the viewer names censored?
With a zing, the previous screens were blurred and a new one overlaid them. This one was followed by a male voice that sounded as though someone was right beside him.
«[Channel moderator: For your protection, of course! Most of these existences have reached a level so high, you cannot imagine. You would go crazy merely from seeing their true names! That, or your already broken worldview would be broken even more...]»
"Is that so..." Xiao Shen pursed his lips slightly.
It just made him all the more curious about who these existences truly were!
