Old He remained silent.
One day, two days, three days...
Old He gradually lost his mind.
As soon as he smells meat, he'll lie down on the ground like a dog, sticking out his tongue.
"Oh, Lao He, are you begging me?" Dr. Liu showed no pity whatsoever: "Unfortunately, I'm doing this for your own good. Didn't you say you'd rather die than eat human flesh?"
On the fourth day, Old He finally started gnawing on his fingers...
Lu Shi didn't want to watch any more of the scene, and many viewers in the live stream were vomiting.
I won't go into details here, but in the end, Old He ate himself until only a pile of bones remained.
That's when it's truly dead.
Dr. Liu also witnessed what the consequences would be if they didn't eat human flesh.
The video ended, and the computer returned to a blue screen.
"Then how did you become one with it?"
Lu Shi continued pacing back and forth in the room, a little habit he had when he was thinking.
I don't know either; I lost consciousness after I died.
[I don't know how much time passed, but one day I suddenly woke up.]
There was no one here. I realized I had become one with this computer.
Lu Shi exclaimed "Oh!" So this thing is called a computer!
“They’ve eaten too much human flesh and turned into monsters. They’re wandering around on the second floor!” Lu Shi said calmly.
This outcome is very much in line with the monster's character; whether you eat it or not, there will be no good ending.
He then recounted the whole story to "Old He".
The computer screen flashed blue once before I started typing:
【Thank you.】
Congratulations on completing the game.
Only then did the system's voice sound: "Congratulations..."
But before it could finish speaking, Lu Shi covered his mouth and laughed.
"Excuse me, Lao He, no, I should call you a devil, right? Your acting is terrible!"
A note from the author:
In one or two more chapters, our male lead will make his appearance—
Chapter 20
☪ True Plague Prison (Complete)
The system is stuck.
Lu Shi's actions not only shocked the system but also stunned the viewers who witnessed them.
They never imagined that someone would refuse to clear the dungeon and then argue with the system and the dungeon NPCs.
Silver Hall
Lu Shi's live stream popularity continues to rise. If the game "Infinite Wishes" didn't prohibit streamers from leveling up during live streams, Lu Shi's popularity would at least be in the middle of the Gold Hall rank.
However, the total number of viewers gathered in the Silver Hall has not changed much; those who are used to watching top streamers will not come here.
In other words, Lu Shi was actually leeching off the other streamers in the lobby.
A girl wearing glasses quickly glanced at the other live streams and then looked surprised.
The number of viewers in the two live streams that were just ranked second and third has shrunk by at least half.
And all these people flocked to Lu Shi's place.
The new viewers discussed loudly: "What's going on? I heard a streamer refused to clear a dungeon?"
"Wow, you can do that? These streamers are so outrageous!"
"I heard he's a newbie. He just finished the newbie dungeon and already ranked first in the Silver Hall. Wow, he's got a bright future ahead of him!"
"So what's going on? Has the main plot taken a turn?"
As a skilled player, Red Spider paid no attention to the chattering group of newcomers.
She turned her head, glanced at the bubblegum boy not far from her, and walked over:
"It seems your reasoning was wrong. You didn't expect that Lao He wasn't an innocent victim."
The once arrogant boy immediately lowered his head, like a rooster that had lost a fight.
He didn't answer Red Spider, but instead muttered to himself, "How could that be!"
"I was wrong!"
"Is it true that Lao He is a demon?"
The boy couldn't figure it out, so he could only look up at Lu Shi's live stream.
[Supreme Demon Lord's Livestream]
Lu Shi's words were like a thunderclap, not only interrupting the system that was about to announce the rewards, but also turning the blue screen computer into a mosaic.
The buzzing computer resembled a defeated person in a fit of impotent rage, and its anomaly made Lu Shi even more certain that he had guessed correctly.
No, no, no, he didn't guess, he deduced it.
Lu Shi leaned against the table, elegantly staring at the cunning computer, wondering what other tricks it had up its sleeve.
Soon, the pixelated image was replaced by a terrifying, eerie, and indescribable face.
It looked like a lump of mud haphazardly smeared on his face.
However, this is not the most terrifying thing. What is disgusting is that a tentacle with a mouth would occasionally emerge from this clump of mud.
Lu Shi was unaware, but the viewers who stayed in the live stream knew very well that those tentacles were exactly the same as the ones that had tied Lu Shi to the dark room back then.
It was a face that, upon first seeing it, evoked disgust and fear, yet one still wanted to keep looking and was unwilling to look away.
Silver Hall
"Don't stare at that face! This, this guy isn't an ordinary demon, he's a follower of an evil god!"
The one who issued this warning was neither Red Spider nor any other hidden expert player, but that cartoonish-looking boy.
After he finished speaking, he covered his face with his hands, regardless of whether anyone else was listening.
Red Spider cleared his throat, confirming his point: "He's right, these kinds of bosses are very common in high-difficulty dungeons. Just seeing them is enough to cause mental pollution, making your sanity drop like crazy. In more serious cases, it can drive you insane!"
"Even though we're watching on TV, it still has an impact. Anyone with a mental attribute below 150 shouldn't watch!"
After saying this, Red Spider looked at the boy with even more curiosity.
Who is he, and how could he know this kind of knowledge?
If she's a player who can enter high-difficulty dungeons, there's no way she wouldn't recognize her!
She gave a wink to an elderly man with white hair behind her, who quietly nodded.
[Supreme Demon Lord's Livestream]
Lu Shi's mental attribute is only 90. Logically speaking, his sanity should have plummeted when facing this demon.
However, when Lu Shi was in the cultivation world, he encountered several cultivators who had gone mad from their cultivation. The monsters created by these people were far more terrifying than this demon.
Therefore, Lu Shi's sanity value only symbolically decreased by three points.
When did you find out?
The demon sneered, and as soon as it opened its mouth, more than a dozen wriggling tentacles stretched out.
The lips on those tentacles would open and close, as if the sound was coming from them.
“I thought the first thing you would do was kill me, not waste your time here.”
Lu Shi's tone was somewhat disappointed, as if he was complaining that the NPC wasn't intelligent enough.
"Heh," the demon sneered again, "I can kill you anytime, I'm not in a hurry!"
However, Lu Shi completely ignored the demon. He stopped leaning against the table and walked in another direction.
As a demon of considerable rank, when had it ever suffered such injustice, with someone ignoring it!
Shouldn't these stupid, lowly creatures be terrified and kneel down begging for mercy upon seeing its majestic appearance?
Damn it! The demon discovered that it would actually take some time to break through the limitations of this body!
That's why it wasn't in a hurry to kill Lu Shi.
It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't!
But the demon never expected that it would end up in such a ridiculous way after killing, eating, driving, and deceiving countless players in this instance.
Lu Shi, an ancient person.
Computers were something otherworldly to him, mysterious and fascinating.
Lu Shi is a keen observer.
There are many large black boxes (and other electronic devices) in the room, so why is it that only this computer works?
Lu Shi quickly discovered that the computer was plugged in.
While the demon was still cursing and swearing, Lu Shi had already strode over to the power source and decisively unplugged the wire.
The world fell silent instantly.
This computer, which held so many secrets, suddenly fell apart...
Among the pile of rubble, a few bones surprisingly fell out.
Several bones with teeth marks.
