The number of people in the live broadcast dropped sharply, and then, poof –

Yu Qing pressed the old woman ghost’s head into the dinner plate and asked with a smile: “Do you want to watch a ghost mukbang?”

Audience: [???]

Yu Qing: “I work for everyone’s enjoyment and broadcast something different.”

Audience: [!!!]

Since then, things became strange.

System: [Host Yu Qing killed the NPC, violated the rules, and the health value returned to zero!]

The audience rewarded him life points crazily.

[My wife is right, there must be something wrong with the rules!]
[The system want him to die on the third broadcast, but I want him to live forever!]
Other hosts: “But our audience is not like this!!!”

What did the audience want to see?

Audience: [Baby, hug the BOSS and kiss him until he is stunned!] <<less

Attributes: Male, 20 years old

Game Rounds: 5

Win Rate: 100/100

Danger Rank: SSS

No wonder they were afraid.

The first time he saw An Wujiu, Shen Ti felt curious. The kindness and fragility in those eyes were not fake, so how could he survive in the Altar? It was until he saw the man had a sudden personality change. He recklessly gambled regardless of the cost, casually estranged people, grew further excited on the verge of death, and even calculated against himself to win.

In the building, there was a song that was so lively and scary.
There were strange and suspicious creatures everywhere.
A twisted hospital with strange creatures roaming around every corner.

After several attempts to escape from this place, I finally looked up and shouted—

My heart was pulled out. I finally died.

"Huh?"

No, I'm still alive. My heart beats normally inside my body. I woke up gasping for air, clutching my heart and crying silently. I am back again. It starts all over again.

"Why? How come?"

I hate this. I don't want to go through that again. I can't do anything. I'm scared. I can't. I can't do it, so just let me die.

I saw a window over there. This place was on the 14th floor. If I jumped from here, I could die properly.
I approached the window and opened it wide. I climbed onto the windowsill, I let go of my grip on the wall and threw myself down.

When I fell, I saw the inside through the downstairs window.
One person was being dissected alive on the operating table.
A strange doctor looking out the window looked at me and tilted his head.

Crazy patients roaming around like zombies.
Two men with connected heads reached out at me.
Dozens of severed wrists were stuck upside down on the table, fluttering like sea anemones.

This is hell. Let's die and escape. <<less

We just want to have a fair trial – for ourselves and for those who still have hope for the world. <<less
