Chapter 387: Thirteenth Official Livestream! Exterminate Everyone! Leave None Alive! (2)

Chapter 387 – Thirteenth Official Livestream! Exterminate Everyone! Leave None Alive! (2)

9:08 AM.

Transdimensional Review’s livestream rooms still weren’t open for public access.

Including the various nations’ governments, almost everyone around the world was waiting in front of a screen at this moment. Yet, the only thing that entered their eyes was a field of darkness.

“The official livestream this time is delayed again.”

Inside the Observer Conference Hall, Big Sis Wu looked at the time and said, “It seems it’s another dangerous product.”

“Which product he reviewed wasn’t dangerous?” While immersed in writing notes, the middle-aged team leader said, “However, no matter how dangerous the products are, there are limits. The supergiant revealed in the previous episode has already reached that limit. Hence, what we should do now is focus on the AI problem.”

“Didn’t he say he has a solution for it? He told us to stop meddling in the matter.”

“But I can’t help but find his words to be unreliable.”

“Maybe he received technological support from the power behind him?”

“The power behind him…” Stopping his writing, the middle-aged team leader looked up and said, “Sometimes, I find myself thinking that there might not exist any power behind him at all.”

“What do you mean?” Big Sis Wu asked in confusion.

“If I have to name a power behind him, I believe it is time itself. Time, cause and effect, and logic are the powers backing him…”

…

Pacific Ocean, Super Floating Castle:

Looking at the rows of text displayed on the virtual interface before him, Chen Yu cursed, “What the heck?! They’re really trying to exterminate everyone?!”

Just look at the names of these options…

How crazy were they?

[Natural Disaster Generator—Ancient Human Extinction Limited Edition]

[1. Nuclear War]

[2. Asteroid Impact]

[3. Simultaneous Supervolcano Eruption]

[4. Magnitude 13 Earthquake]

[5. Mutated Virus Outbreak]

[6. Artificial Intelligence Crisis]

[7. Gamma-ray Burst]

[8. Black Hole Devouring]

[9. Sun Expansion]

[10. Destructive Invasion By Alien Civilization]

“…”

After a moment of silence, Chen Yu stretched out his finger, bypassed the top ten options with unprecedented caution, and clicked the “Product Introduction” option at the bottom of the virtual screen.

He wanted to see just which mentally disabled company developed this thing and even sent it to him for advertisement…

[Product Introduction: Natural Disaster Generator (Ancient Human Extinction Limited Edition): This product wonderfully displays the fragility of ancient human society through the creation of a variety of natural disasters, thereby raising the awareness of humans toward various crises in the new era. It also profoundly exposes the ignorance, helplessness, backwardness, and pathology of ancient human civilization.]

[Produced by the “Die from Addiction” Company in 7162.]

“Fuck!

“I knew it was you!!”

Suppressing the urge to throw the generator away, Chen Yu pulled out his phone, entered WeChat, and rapidly typed out a message.

[Chen Yu: “You there? Come out!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, how can I help you?”]

[Chen Yu: “Help me switch to a new product. Do that, and we can still be friends.”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Do you not like this product?”]

Chen Yu smiled angrily.

[Chen Yu: “I love it. I love it very much. Why don’t you send me to your space-time, and I’ll use it on the spot for you?”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Oh! I understand! You’re afraid that this Natural Disaster Generator is even more dangerous, right?”]

[Chen Yu: “More dangerous? In that case, let me ask you what your most dangerous product is.”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, this is a misunderstanding. Although we keep sending you products like the Type-K Beast Armor, Oscillating Planet Smasher, and a soon-to-explode supergiant, we are a good advertising company!”]

[Chen Yu: “…”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “It’ll be troublesome to explain the details to you. You should check the instruction manual yourself, Mr. Chen.”]

Sending a glance at the virtual screen, Chen Yu frowned.

[Chen Yu: “Where’s the instruction manual?”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “It’s on the third row, in between the options of ‘Black Hole Devouring’ and ‘Sun Expansion’ options. Please make sure your hand doesn’t tremble. You’ll get a scare, otherwise.”]

[Chen Yu: “Why, thank you very much.”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “You’re welcome.”]

Placing down his phone, Chen Yu rubbed his eyes and looked at the screen in detail. Sure enough, there was a small line of characters between the options of “Black Hole Devouring” and “Sun Expansion.”

[Product Operating Instructions (Must Read)!]

“Why are you hiding it if it’s a ‘must read’?!”

Lifting his head, Chen Yu looked at the clear sky outside the window and took a deep breath. After spending some time steadying himself, he tentatively stretched out his finger and clicked on the tiny characters.

Buzz!

The next second, the product’s metallic body let out a low hum. The virtual screen then changed to displaying a dynamic, explanatory video.

Chen Yu hurriedly pulled over a chair, sat down, and listened carefully to the introduction.

The whole introduction video was dubbed in Chinese, and the vocabulary used was concise. The footage ended five minutes later.

“What the heck? So that’s what this thing is?” Realization dawning upon him, Chen Yu stood up with spirited eyes. “I can’t believe such a product actually exists!”

Buzz!

At this time, his phone vibrated.

Pulling out his phone, he found that it was a message from the Transdimensional Marketing Company’s staff.

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Based on the time passed, you should’ve finished watching the introduction, right?”]

[Chen Yu: “Yes.”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Do you feel relieved now?”]

[Chen Yu: “I’m relieved! This thing is interesting!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Good, then. I wish you a fun review.”]

[Chen Yu: “It’s definitely going to be fun!”]

Exiting WeChat, Chen Yu looked at the time. “It’s 9:20 already. I can’t delay things any longer.

“Let’s change today’s livestream method a little…”

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yu took a step forward and carefully inspected the virtual screen. He then stretched out a finger and clicked on the [2. Artificial Intelligence Crisis] option!

“My fellow viewers, it’s time for some fun!”

…

“It’s almost half-past nine. Why is this episode so late?”

America, New York, Observer Conference Hall:

Including the middle-aged team leader from China, the other countries’ representatives fell into a state of impatience. They also urged their respective departments repeatedly to check whether their equipment and network were malfunctioning.

“This is abnormal. This is too abnormal.”

Standing up, the middle-aged team leader picked up his satellite phone. While calling his superior, he said to Big Sis Wu, “He has always been punctual ever since his first official livestream. Even at the worst of times, he is no more than ten minutes late. Yet, he is almost half an hour late this time. Could something have happened?”

“Could it be HAL causing trouble?” Big Sis Wu said with uncertainty.

“…This is also what I’m afraid of.”

“China’s representative.” At this time, the American representative seated at the head of the table picked up his microphone and looked at the middle-aged team leader. “Try contacting Transdimensional’s UP.”

“We tried four minutes ago. Bilibili’s platform shows he isn’t online.”

“Does anyone present have any suggestions? According to the information I have, at least two billion people are waiting for the livestream right now. There is a lot of discussions being held over this on the internet.”

In response, Japan’s representative raised his hand and spoke into his microphone, “I suggest we inform the media now to explain to the pub—”

Bang!

Before the Japanese representative could finish speaking, a flower of blood suddenly bloomed on his chest.

“?” Lowering his head to look at the bloodstain, the Japanese representative then turned to look at the stunned faces of everyone in the room. Holding his chest with his trembling right hand, he asked, “これはどういうこと?(What is the meaning of this?)”

Bang!

Another loud noise echoed throughout the room, and Japan’s representative finally fell to the ground.

This time, everyone in the room finally reacted. Immediately, a series of exclamations and screams broke out throughout the room.

“Not good!” Breaking out in cold sweat, the middle-aged team leader subconsciously grabbed Big Sis Wu’s hand and shouted, “We need to leave!”

“What’s going on? We…”

Bang!

“Leader?! What’s wrong?! Leader?!”

Boom!

The next moment, the Observer Conference Hall’s door opened suddenly, and rows of metallic robots holding heavy machine guns rushed into the room and pulled the trigger…
