Chapter 11: Chapter 11 981 Windows
Li Siming had never watched live streams before.
As a professional programmer, although he had not yet graduated from college, he was already capable of taking on programming jobs. Busy with code writing day and night, he had neither the time nor the energy to watch any online live streams!
Whether it was live streams of beautiful women, or those featuring talent, bizarre acts, documentaries, or exploration, he was not interested.
Looking back now, he could not recall how everything had happened last night, where he had found that live stream room, how he had clicked on it, how it had started... His mind was a complete blank!
His strong professional capabilities granted him meticulous thinking, and his powerful logical reasoning skills were something he couldn't let go of even now!
Live streaming with time travel, 'time traveling' to a world inside a TV drama!!
How bizarre and ridiculous that was, and yet, the pictures captured from the video, along with the abundance of ready evidence, were a stark reminder to him!
It was real, indeed real!
Was he going insane, or had something gone wrong with the world?
His eyes red, he refilled his coffee cup over and over, and his mouse moved extremely fast on his computer...
Zoom in, zoom even more, pause and pause again... not missing any part, not missing any detail!
But the result was as perfect as ever, flawless!
Just then, an extremely professional and powerful data retrieval tool completed its task in the background. With a "ding dong", a long list popped up, every file and record on the computer was searched out, even those data and files that had been deleted were listed!
But...
There was not the program that was currently running, the client called "Spirit Live Streaming Room"!
Damn it!
It was sitting there running on the desktop, with his mouse actively operating it!
However, it was like a real ghost, no matter how it was operated or what method used, it was untraceable!
Let alone hacking into it!
"Hey, Lei Zi, how's it going? Figured it out yet?"
Lei Zi was a professional specializing in video post-production. Li Siming had already sent him the recorded live streaming video and pictures, and now, he wanted to hear the opinion of this professional from a different perspective.
"This is messed up, you wouldn't believe it, but our school's history professor was scared stiff..."
"What?" Li Siming quickly sat up, "You showed it to someone else?"
"Don't rush, I couldn't find any traces of editing, no special effects, no known technological methods. I counted the people that appeared in the video and there were one thousand two hundred and sixteen, whether in close-up or far away shots, each one looked so real..."
"Cut the crap!" Li Siming said irritably, pulling at the collar of his shirt, not knowing what he was so agitated about.
"I had no choice but to upload it to the school network, using the sharp eyes of the masses to verify its authenticity."
"And the result, what was the result?"
"The result is that the old professor is now in the hospital, the ambulance has just left..."
Li Siming opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words!
"Right, I was just about to find you. Send me the client for that live streaming room. You don't know, I've searched all the major live streaming websites but couldn't find it..."
Li Siming forced a smile as he looked at the computer screen. On the screen, the video file of the live stream was still playing; the character Li Xu transformed into, a little eunuch, was looking at him with a mysterious smile on his lips.
"Hey, are you listening? Send me that damned live streaming room..."
"Can't send it... forget it, you come over and see for yourself!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Siming finally had no doubts; he had become involved in an inexplicable supernatural event, yes, after back and forth, doubt and confirmation and again doubting after confirming!
However, he didn't know that something even more terrifying was happening at that moment: a pair of invisible eyes were observing him through the computer screen, via the undetectable live streaming room client.
.........
"Live room viewership: 3819 people, spiritual power collection: 0.3NT per minute, Power of Faith collection: 0.01nt per minute..."
This was a huge accident, but at the same time, a huge surprise!
Li Xu had not expected that, after the live stream ended, the saved video would still have the same resource collection functionality, nor had he anticipated that the remaining 981 people would become so efficient a source and seed of influence in such a short span of time!
Not only that, the effects of this influence spread were so direct, they could be seen on the page for [Real World Support and Accentuation]!
981 downloads of live streaming clients, now had turned into 981 windows, densely arranged. Li Xu randomly clicked on one, the window expanded, the video played, and soon, everything happening to a man in his twenties (Li Siming) was within Li Xu's view.
What he was doing, what he was puzzled about, what he was telling his friend on the phone...
Li Xu was stunned for a moment before suddenly bursting into laughter!
"This feature is very powerful, not bad, not bad!"
"3819 people, do those videos and images that were spread also have the resource collection function?"
"Never mind that, as long as it spreads, that's good, as long as the resource collection rate is increasing, that's good, spiritual power collection, Power of Faith... increased again, it has increased again!"
Indeed, in the span of just a moment, the viewer count and Resource Collection Efficiency both showed a small increase, changing to 3841 people and 0.31nt per minute, but the Power of Faith collection had barely changed, a pitifully small number.
"I initially thought it would take many live streams, a long time to accumulate enough resources, but now it's all good, maybe a single sleep can bring about the appearance of purchasable props in the app store, what if a Golden Finger that I had envisioned appears... whoa, calm down, calm down!"
Li Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead, cursed the sweltering heat waving his power, the rented room was as hot as a sauna, no air conditioning, the fan was useless, and his empty wallet was holding back his impulse to improve his living conditions.
Now it was different, not to mention the possibilities of the infinite future, but at least now, change was about to come. The first step was to rescue himself from this crude, narrow, oven-like residence and move into a comfortable apartment!
So tired, couldn't hold on any longer, the remaining windows would have to wait, roughly understanding what they would be like; now, he was about to enjoy a good sleep and then welcome his new life!
With boundless joy and contentment, Li Xu locked the doors and windows, drew the curtains, ensuring that there was no chance for his secret to leak, and then collapsed into bed and fell into a deep sleep!
