WTNL Chapter 71 [End]

Antai Community
Chapter 71: “As a believer, won’t you come to kiss your god?”

…What?

Wen Jianyan’s brain was a chaotic mess, all the space in his mind squeezed by muddled thoughts. Although he could hear the other party’s voice, he was completely unable to process the information contained in their words.

He could understand every single word, but combined together, they seemed like another language.

He hung his head, a blur of watery light before his eyes.

Icy fingers lifted his chin.

The young man’s face was forced to tilt up. A pale face, pitch-black wet eyelashes, the tip of his nose and the corners of his eyes completely red, his moist amber eyes filled with bewilderment.

His face was soaked in tears, which dripped down his chin.

In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:

[…Sorry family, I’m going to go feral first to show my respect!!!!]

[Ahhhhhhhhhhh I’ve already lost my mind!! The dog scammer crying is too sexy, I can’t take it!]

[Although seeing him cry is really tragic and pitiful, why am I getting even more excited!!!]

[The live broadcast room teaches us to have integrity, so I’ll just say it straight—ahhhhhh keep crying! Hurry! It’s insanely delicious!]

[Damn it, am I the only one shipping the weird pairings of God x Bishop and Evil God x Swindler?! It’s too delicious, too delicious; tears are flowing from the corners of my mouth!]

[And just now I remember that ghost BOSS said, “You won’t be able to run away anymore”… ahhhhh what does that mean! Could it be that he’s going to follow him into other instances next?!]

[I think he will! It’s basically like having a tracker!]

[Ahhhhhh so looking forward to it, I feel like this guy will become a regular guest in the swindler’s live broadcast room!]

[Ahhhh is this the feeling of your shipped CP having after-sales service!]

Just then, the system’s familiar mechanical voice rang in his ear:

[Antai Community instance time limit has ended, unlock progress reached 96%, instance is closing…]

[10, 9, 8…]

Wen Jianyan paused, his eyes finally focusing.

The time was up! It was over! He was finally going to leave this instance!

Wu Zhu leaned down, his icy golden eyes staring at the disheveled human before him. He casually rubbed the young man’s lower lip with the pad of his thumb, a hint of a smile flitting across his own lips:

“As a believer, aren’t you going to come kiss your god?”

[7, 6…]

Wen Jianyan’s expression went into a trance for a moment. He raised his eyes, his dark, bright, wet eyelashes trembling slightly.

Like a tamed lamb, the young man submissively leaned in closer, his bewildered amber eyes reflecting the other party’s gradually enlarging face in their depths.

The power binding his body loosened slightly, allowing him to move freely.

The distance between their lips shortened bit by bit, stopping just before they were about to touch. The human’s hot and moist breath sprayed over, fragmentary and ticklish.

The man’s golden eyes darkened little by little.

“Believer?”

The young man’s brows and eyes carried a smile. His flushed lips parted, and between his snow-white teeth, his pink tongue tip could faintly be seen.

Wen Jianyan’s voice was low and weak, carrying a hint of frivolous mockery:

“Are you worthy?”

“My tongue still has another use.”

The vigorous vitality had already been restored to Wen Jianyan’s eyes. He raised a middle finger, gritted his teeth, and smiled:

“—It can still curse you.” “You piece of trash, you hurt your daddy so fucking much.”

[…2, 1]

The countdown reached zero.

The heavy darkness had no visible boundaries, rolling silently.

The man with black hair and golden eyes stood alone in the darkness. His eyes narrowed slightly, his thoughtful gaze falling upon the void.

Wu Zhu lowered his eyes, his gaze landing on his own spread fingers.

The warm and slippery touch of fresh blood seemed to still linger on his fingertips. That body temperature unique to a human made him uncontrollably a bit mesmerized.

The scent unique to the other’s soul seemed to still linger at the tip of his nose.

Vivid, passionate, and fragrant.

He licked the corner of his lips, a hint of greed flashing deep in his golden eyes.

Today was just a shallow taste, yet it was already so delicious.

He really looked forward to the day he swallowed him completely into his stomach.

“…We will meet again very soon.”

The man’s deep voice stirred a tremor in the darkness. The smile contained in his trailing tone made one shudder.

[Live broadcast ended.]

[Streamer has logged off.]

[In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room will close in one minute. Countdown: 60, 59…]

Although the instance had ended, the viewers still hadn’t recovered their senses.

[Fuck… is this live broadcast room this thrilling!]

[This is playing way too wild!! I love it, I love it!]

[Ahhhhhhh I still want to keep watching, help! When is the dog scammer broadcasting next time? I can’t wait a single moment longer!]

[Oh my god, speaking of which, I really didn’t expect the dog scammer to actually come back alive from that boss’s hands!]

[Ahhhhhh me too! I’m so hooked I can’t take it, swindler hurry up and continue broadcasting!]

[Wuwuwu what kind of godly live broadcast is this, not only can we watch the streamer show off his skills, but we can also find a wife and ship CPs, one dish with three flavors! Motto motto!]

[Speaking of which, did you guys notice! The Black team streamer jumped into the identity of a bishop halfway through, and in the end, it was actually confirmed by the evil spirit!!]

[Eh it really is! I feel the streamer is probably not far from unlocking a title!]

[Hm? Isn’t it only streamers B-rank and above who can unlock titles? The streamer is only D-rank right now, I feel like we still have to wait a while.]

[No, no, no, I think it’ll be very soon. This is only his third live broadcast! And he’s already this strong, I guess B-rank isn’t far away!]

[Ahhhhhh so looking forward to it, I remember there will be skills after equipping a title, right?]

[I feel like after the streamer rises to B-rank in the future, his title will become super awesome… Mother of the World this, Evil Spirit Cult Leader that, ahhhhh, I feel like I’m seeing the seedling of an S-rank streamer slowly rising!]

[Let’s not talk about things so far away first. I feel like the streamer can definitely be the MVP this time!]

[I think so too!]

After team battle instances B-rank and above ended, the MVP streamer of the instance would be evaluated. The streamer selected as the MVP would have their live broadcast room featured on the front page recommendation during their next broadcast!

This kind of front page recommendation for a solo live broadcast room was extremely precious, a powerful weapon for attracting traffic and gaining fans!

The sixty-second countdown gradually came to an end.

Although all the live broadcast rooms were already closed, the viewers still remained in the Antai Community live broadcast plaza. Their eyes stared tightly at the big screen in the plaza, waiting with bated breath in anticipation.

Accompanied by a burst of stirring music, the originally blackened big screen slowly lit up.

[Congratulations to In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room for winning MVP of this match!]

The next second, the young man with amber eyes appeared on the screen. He slightly narrowed his eyes, a faint smile lingering on his lips, and frivolously blew a kiss to the crowd.

The plaza boiled over:

[Ahhhhhhhhhhh as expected of you!]

[I knew it! The MVP of this match is absolutely this dog scammer!]

[Dog scammer is awesome!]

[Ahhhhhh the live broadcast room system really knows how to do this. I really love this clip every time I watch it, it’s completely at the level of a heart sniper!]

[Although I’m really happy as a career fan that the streamer will get a front page recommendation in the next instance, but… thinking about how more people will be fighting me for my wife makes me so sad wuwuwu!]

[Dog scammer, charge!!!]

Wen Jianyan lay spread-eagled, somewhat drained of strength, in a vast, snow-white space.

The surroundings were a vast expanse of white. Besides him, there wasn’t a second streamer.

After all, this instance was a faction instance, and the Black team didn’t have any other streamers besides him. So, the space after the end naturally only contained him alone.

This was actually a good thing for Wen Jianyan.

After all, his current state—barely clothed, face covered in tear stains, and skin branded with bizarre scars… the fewer people who saw him, the better.

Fortunately, in this space, one could spend points to heal wounds and buy clothes; otherwise, Wen Jianyan really wouldn’t know how to return to his room with a straight face.

[Your live broadcast room’s peak concurrent viewership reached 149,868. Reward points have been credited to the streamer’s account!]
[Achievement Unlocked: Rising Steadily!]
[You are 31,000 points away from upgrading your live broadcast room. Streamer, please keep up the good work and create more brilliance!]

The system broadcast voice in his ears had been continuing for a long time.

Wen Jianyan didn’t turn off the notifications this time. After all, having just narrowly escaped death, that string of clinking data broadcast sounds would make his mood much better. After all, in the system space, this represented bona fide currency!

As he listened, he estimated in his mind.

Although this instance was more difficult than the last one, the amount of points obtained from completing quests and unlocking routes was roughly the same. However, the point settlement from the faction battle and the tip points were almost double those of the last instance.

Regardless, the harvest was plentiful.

Wen Jianyan was quite satisfied with the achievements he obtained in this instance.

After all, not only did he get a massive amount of points and items he could bring into the next instance, but he also got stuck right on the edge of completing the main plot, failing to unlock the Platinum achievement.

The next instance would finally not target him, hell yeah!

The familiar sound of fireworks rang out:

[Congratulations to the Black team for unlocking the Antai Community instance Platinum achievement!]

Wen Jianyan’s eyes widened in shock, and he violently sprang up from the floor: “Ah? Why?”

Didn’t he fail to finish the main plot in the end, leaving one Epic-level item unobtained?! He shouldn’t have unlocked the Platinum achievement!

[Unidentified BUG detected, instance has lost opening conditions.] The system’s cold voice rang out: [The Platinum achievement will be awarded to the streamer with the highest main quest completion.]

Wen Jianyan: “…”

Fuck.

Then didn’t he suffer a huge loss!

Wen Jianyan scratched his hair with some annoyance and lowered his head—

The next second, a familiar pattern came into view.

On his lower abdomen, a complex scarlet pattern meandered, forming a stark contrast with his fair skin. It flowed down along his hip bone, disappearing into the gap of his pants.

Wen Jianyan’s pupils shrank.

?!

Wait? Why is this still here?!

He had originally thought that when the Nightmare Live Broadcast Room deducted points to heal his body, it would make this thing disappear! Why did it look exactly the same as before he spent the points!

“Little Assistant, heal the wounds!” His voice changed pitch slightly.

“The wounds on your body are completely healed; no treatment is necessary,” the Little Assistant’s sweet voice rang in his ear.

Wen Jianyan raised his eyes with a hideous expression, gritting his teeth as he said:

“Remove it for me! No matter how many points it costs!”

The Little Assistant’s voice remained devoid of fluctuation: “No material residue detected, please reconfirm your command.”

Wen Jianyan’s pupils quaked: “…”

No way?

When he was unable to focus due to the overly intense pain earlier, he seemed to have heard something…

What was it again…?

Fragmented memories flooded his mind.

Wait? …What did he mean by ‘you won’t be able to run away anymore’?

Wen Jianyan felt a chill down his back as an ominous premonition suddenly and slowly rose in his heart.

He somewhat dazedly pressed his hand against that small patch of faintly burning skin. The smooth skin felt no different from anywhere else.

Could this be a tracker?

Is this damn thing going to appear in the next instance too?! If he had known, he wouldn’t have run his mouth just now!

Besides that, it seemed he had forgotten something else…

Wen Jianyan frowned slightly, carefully recalling for a long while. Suddenly, his pupils shrank as he abruptly realized.

He lowered his head, looking in shock at that talisman-like pattern. It was as if the other party’s deep, smiling, yet icy voice rang in his ears once again:

“This is my name.”

…Name.

Name?!

“…”

After realizing this, Wen Jianyan was so angry his face turned white.

Who the fuck tattoos their own name onto someone else’s body! And in such an awkward position too! Someone who didn’t know would look at it and think he had some sort of special fetish…

How perverted is that!
