As someone who prioritizes killing others, I'm forced to stream a death game.

Chapter 17 Go and Receive Your Punishment

We must absolutely not let ourselves be touched by these attack methods!

Liu Ren immediately made a judgment about this unknown threat.

With his superhuman reaction speed and physical abilities, as well as the awareness brought by the "Fist of Ten Thousand" technique, Liu Ren quickly twisted his body and avoided the black spikes that were aimed directly at him.

Then continue trying to increase the distance to moisten it.

The effects of the gadgets clearly transcend the realm of physics.

Although he possessed exceptional martial arts skills, the risk of facing such a thing was still too high.

Unless he also possesses a magical artifact.

But... how easy is it to obtain such magical tools?

At least for now, Liu Ren doesn't.

"Hmm? So agile..." A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Wenrui's cold eyes.

He now understood why all those people below had been wiped out by one person.

Liu Ren's skills, even among regular fighters without any tricks, would place him in the top tier.

But it's a pity.

Having or not having magic tools represents two different levels of combat power!

It's like having a knife and then fighting someone who doesn't have one.

"Let's see if you can still run—Heart-Eating Bite!"

A somewhat distorted smile flashed across Zhou Wenrui's face as he slammed the sickle into the ground once more.

Seven or eight black spikes rushed toward Liu Ren again at extremely high speed, blocking almost all of his escape routes.

The sharp end of the spike pointed directly at Liu Ren's heart.

"!"

Liu Ren immediately halted his forward momentum, forcefully changing direction to retreat and advance, avoiding Black Thorn's attack, while quickly searching for other breakthroughs.

He moves very quickly.

They look very busy.

It could even be described as a perilous journey—if Liu Ren's reaction speed or physical speed slowed down even slightly...

He is already a corpse.

On the other hand, Zhou Wenrui, who stood still and barely moved, had already cornered Liu Ren.

The difference in combat strength between the two sides is evident.

This stark contrast left viewers watching the live stream feeling extremely uncomfortable.

This is ridiculously over the top! Are these magical artifacts really that useful?

I thought this Zhou Wenrui was really something.

[Although it certainly looks impressive now.]

[But the guy who's so awesome isn't him at all!]

[The amazing thing is the gadgets! What does it have to do with Zhou Wenrui himself!]

[This gadget is way too over-the-top!]

To be honest, I've wanted to complain about this for a while now. The world is supposed to be quite realistic, so why are there so many ghosts?

Ultimately, what exactly is this "trickery"?

[I don't know. Nobody had ever been able to figure this out before.]

I wonder if the streamer will be able to continue living...

I think it's unlikely.

I think it's unlikely too.

[I think it's good. The streamer's movements are quite stylish; he looks very strong.]

Let's cast a vote.

[Do you think the streamer can survive this round? Yes or No]

[Place your order now!]

[Place your crystals!]

[System notification: The number of viewers in the live stream has exceeded 30! Keep it up!]

[or]

【…】

The live stream room was very lively.

However, Liu Ren himself was already on the verge of death.

Every second, I was teetering on the brink of death.

They were practically about to fall headfirst into it.

"...We must create a window of opportunity...!"

“These thorns seem to have a physical form.”

"Moreover, the number has remained at around eight."

"Is that guy... strong in himself?"

Liu Ren used his agility and endurance to dodge the stabs by leaping back and forth at high speed.

He kept thinking and pondering in his mind.

The advantages of having well-rounded overall attributes are also fully demonstrated at this moment.

If any one attribute is even slightly lacking.

He's going to die here today.

But he is good at everything.

Realizing that Zhou Wenrui was planning to force him back, Liu Ren looked at Zhou Wenrui, who was getting closer and closer, and a thought flashed through his mind.

Seeing Liu Ren forced back into his presence, Zhou Wenrui felt a surge of intense pleasure.

He loves the feeling of slowly crushing a powerful flea!

The stronger Liu Ren was, the more excited Zhou Wenrui became, to the point of being unable to contain his excitement.

"Didn't you want to run away? Why are you back again? Hmm? Keep running, hahaha... Your dancing is pretty good, hahaha!"

Watching Liu Ren being forced to jump around and dodge the spikes, Zhou Wenrui laughed heartily with a satisfied expression.

"...This person's mental state is even more pathological than mine."

Liu Ren thought to himself expressionlessly.

Killing and death are merely the most basic requirements here.

But for him, it was a bottom line that needed to be broken.

Therefore, a person standing on the edge of a cliff basking in the sunlight can never understand the feelings of the insects in the cracks of the rocks below.

For someone who falls, once they slip, there is no chance of climbing back up.

And there are countless people like Liu Ren who are willing to jump down.

"...Once you fall into the abyss, the deeper you go, the longer you can live. By killing everyone, I can live longer than everyone else."

"To kill everyone, I must possess... a magical artifact!"

Liu Ren murmured to himself.

Then, he suddenly threw out a short dagger hidden inside his coat.

At this moment, the live stream was still in progress, with people voting and betting on crystal coins.

The betting game has just ended.

[Voting results: Yes, 33%. No, 67%.]

The next second, the black spikes that were attacking Liu Ren all instantly retracted back to Zhou Wenrui's side.

"Huh?!" Zhou Wenrui was stunned for a moment upon seeing this.

Taking advantage of this rare window of opportunity, Liu Ren unleashed all his strength and sprinted away.

The dagger, powerful enough to pierce a person, was blocked by the retracted spikes before it could strike Zhou Wenrui, preventing it from advancing any further.

Finally, it fell to the ground with a crisp thud.

After a two-second pause, Zhou Wenrui finally reacted and angrily cursed, "You damned thing! It's just an ordinary dagger, why did you retract all the tentacles?! The prey got away!"

He hurriedly slammed the sickle into the ground, and the black spikes shot out again.

However, in just two seconds, despite Liu Ren's disregard for the risk of injury, the two had already pulled more than forty meters apart.

At the speed at which the spikes extended, they were just too slow to catch up with Liu Ren.

The spikes gradually stopped moving when Liu Ren maintained a speed of 20 meters per second, increasing the distance between the two sides by 200 meters.

Finally, it had no choice but to shrink back to Zhou Wenrui's feet.

Watching Liu Ren's retreating figure, Zhou Wenrui took a deep breath and roared in fury, "Fool! You let your prey escape! What use are you to me!"

He threw the sickle forcefully to the ground.

Then, the metallic sickle melted directly into the ground and disappeared.

Zhou Wenrui's angry outburst received absolutely no response.

He knows it too.

But when people get angry, they can smash everything in their path.

They don't care at all whether those things have brains or not.

After standing there in silence for a long time, Zhou Wenrui could only open his terminal and report the message to his superior.

"Sorry, Brother Lao, the target got away."

"?"

"That guy's pretty strong, and very fast. I'll give you a detailed report later."
