“Thank you for the Magic Book, Jiang Wei Da Ji! The streamer is generous!”
Inside the dimly lit room, the petite white-haired girl couldn’t help but grin as she saw the screen filled with flashy special effects.
“In that case, I’ll keep my promise. The next video will be a scathing review of the S-Class Hero, the Magical Girl ‘Radiance of the Blazing Sun.’”
As soon as she said that, the chat exploded.
A torrent of similar messages flooded in one after another:
“666, the streamer doesn’t value her life! You dare to review that crazy bitch? I admire your courage.”
“Streamer, don’t do it! You’ll disappear. If she catches you, you’ll be minced into fine sauce.”
“The guy above me, it wouldn’t be that big of a piece.”
…
Watching the shock and mourning fill the screen, Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
This was exactly the result she wanted.
The show’s effect was achieved.
As for the potential risks…
She took it pretty lightly.
In this line of work, there’s no perfect timing, location, or people.
It all depends on whether your Eight Characters of Fate are strong enough.
Besides, she was trolling those lofty heroes.
Sure, they were all too busy to deal with a small fry like her, but their fans were terrifying.
Maybe one day, after making too many enemies, she’d be walking down the street and get a heel to the face from some stranger she’d never met, and die right here under a tree.
Not impossible.
“Alright, everyone. Since I said it, I’ll follow through.”
“The video will be posted tomorrow!”
That statement set off another uproar.
“The video’s already done? You came here just to scam gifts, right?”
“666, you’re not even pretending anymore. Just say you want to troll.”
…
Su Yu realized she’d slipped up.
Her face flushed slightly, but since she always streamed as a virtual avatar, no one could see her embarrassment.
“Shaboo!”
To avoid the awkwardness dragging on, she didn’t hesitate.
She grabbed the mouse and clicked “End Stream.”
The world fell silent.
She let out a breath and skillfully opened the video site’s backend.
Seeing the impressive number on the streaming revenue, a beautiful curve curled at the corner of her mouth.
“The internet really does heal the soul…”
In just two months online, she’d already earned more than she could in ten years of her past life.
Sure, the cost was depleting her Hidden Virtue and owing a debt of several hundred thousand mothers, but she never had a mother in either life anyway.
So to her, those comments attacking her with Floating Wood…
Were just adorable whining.
…
Just as she was planning how to enjoy her Otherworld life, an untimely notification sounded in her ear.
She pulled her thoughts back to reality, frowned instinctively, and leaned closer to the screen.
She saw a little red dot pop up on the private message page.
Curiosity drove her to click on it.
The first line that met her eyes was:
“Guangxi Biaoge Mixianshan?”
“The video titled ‘Scathing Review of S-Class Hero, the Shameful Defeat of the Gutless Jinshu Fengbao’—was that you?”
Seeing these provocative words, Su Yu sneered.
She clicked into his homepage to check his preferences.
Seeing his collection filled with videos about that S-Class Hero, she immediately confirmed he was a brainless fan of the hero.
Normally, she got thousands of such “house visits” every day, and she couldn’t be bothered to argue with these fanboys.
But today she was in a great mood.
Seeing someone come to her doorstep, she felt playful.
Might as well have a little fun.
“That would be me. What insights do you have about that video of mine?”
Her fingers flew across the keyboard, and she sent the message without much thought.
A response came soon after:
“Insights? Hardly. I’m just curious…”
“Where did you get the guts?”
Su Yu was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.
She bet the person on the other side was a little kid whose mind hadn’t developed yet, saying something so laughable.
Her interest faded considerably.
She decided not to keep playing with him.
Instead, she pulled out her usual set of Public Relations Tactics.
“I don’t know what you mean. My channel, Guangxi Biaoge Mixianshan, prides itself on fairness and impartiality. You can say my video is bad, but can you say it’s not true?”
“Take the video you mentioned. A dignified S-Class Hero loses to a Monster. That’s one thing. But when other heroes come to support, instead of thanking them, he bites back, accusing them of stealing his credit. What did he say that day again?”
“‘If you’re so good at killing, let him kill them all!’ He said that, didn’t he? Is that something a person should say?”
“I’ve never seen such a shameless person!”
…
After a heated exchange, the other side fell into deep silence and didn’t respond again.
But in Su Yu’s experience, they’d probably rage-quit and started smashing their computer.
For these fanatical followers, regardless of whether their idol was wrong, questioning was the greatest sin.
She’d seen too many of these people.
…
A while later, the other side finally replied.
But this time, the words surprised Su Yu.
“Good. Very good.”
“I hope you understand the consequences of your actions.”
…
“Pfft…”
Su Yu couldn’t help laughing again.
Her fingers tapped quickly, leaving a single word: “Triggered!”
Then she quickly exited the battlefield—block, mute, report, one-stop service.
After that, she stretched her legs up onto the table.
Now that felt good.
But before she could fully enjoy the euphoria of victory, an untimely knock came at the door.
“Community warmth delivery. Come out and sign for it.”
“Huh?”
Hearing the voice, Su Yu froze.
She thought hard but couldn’t recall ordering any packages.
Frowning, she walked toward the hallway.
“A delivery?”
There were quite a few Monsters in this world.
To be safe, she was cautious when she reached the door.
She asked again.
But got no response.
She peeked through the peephole.
No one in sight.
After hesitating, she carefully cracked the door open and saw a small square box lying flat on the ground.
“What’s this?”
Suspicious, Su Yu picked up the package, turned it over a few times, but couldn’t figure it out.
She decided to take it inside.
But the moment she closed the door, she clearly heard a distinct buzzing sound, like the hum of an engine.
“I never expected your true face to be this. White hair—natural? That’s rare.”
“Who?!”
Startled by the sudden voice, Su Yu’s heart skipped a beat.
She turned toward the sound, only to see a masked figure standing on the living room table, which had been empty moments ago.
Its skin had a metallic sheen, making it look inhuman.
“M-Monster?!”
She instinctively concluded it was a Monster.
Even though she’d never faced one directly since coming to this world, she knew what to do.
Without hesitation, she spun around and bolted, shooting out like lightning.
But before she could get far, her legs suddenly grew heavy.
It felt as if she was stuck, unable to move another inch.
“What’s wrong with my legs?”
Su Yu’s heart sank.
She knew something was terribly wrong.
Stiffly, she turned her head, only to find the figure now standing right in front of her.
“Running so fast—did you mistake me for a Monster?”
“I thought someone like you was fearless. The legendary Guangxi Biaoge Mixianshan.”
“Wh-What?”
Hearing that name, Su Yu’s brain short-circuited for a moment, then her eyes widened.
“How do you know— No, no… What are you talking about? I don’t understand?”
Realizing something, she quickly changed her tune, but it was too late.
“Don’t understand? Interesting. Maybe another name will ring a bell.”
“Right, Miss Su Yu?”
Holy shit! Doxxed!
Su Yu’s vision swam.
She almost fainted from shock.
She never imagined that a simple online argument would lead to someone showing up at her door.
Facing the slowly encroaching face, a strong will to survive forced her to squeeze out a smile more pathetic than crying:
“Hehe… Can we settle this?”
But the response was a rather strange voice:
“Are you joking?”
…
Su Yu’s hanging heart died on the spot.
After mourning internally for a moment, she gritted her teeth, bit her lip, and spoke in a reluctant whisper:
“What do you plan to do?”
…
“What to do?”
This time, it was the masked figure’s turn to be silent.
“Yeah, what to do?”
…
Far away, Lin Mo was just now reconsidering that very question.
According to the original plan, once he met the target in person, he’d have the robot teach this clueless troll a lesson, make them think twice, and delete the video.
But he never expected the legendary “Guangxi Biaoge Mixianshan” to be a petite, cute girl.
The way she scrambled and stumbled while trying to escape, coupled with that expression of facing death—he found it hard to go through with it.
More importantly, she had white hair.
One in a million.
If it was natural, he really wanted to capture… no, invite her for research.
After thinking it over, he quickly adjusted his thoughts and had the robot speak:
“Given that your online videos have caused me considerable trouble, I’ll give you two options.”
“What options?”
Su Yu stared fixedly at its eyes, afraid his next words would be something vicious.
“First, we follow Legal Procedure.”
“I pick the second!”
Without hesitation, before Lin Mo could finish, she made her decision decisively.
That surprised him.
“Don’t you want to hear the conditions first?”
“No need…”
Su Yu shook her head helplessly, a look of sorrow on her face.
“It can’t be worse than going to jail.”
Lin Mo paused, then let out a light laugh.
“You’ve got personality.”
“Alright, the second option is that I’m very interested in you right now. I need you to cooperate with some of my research.”
“Research?”
Hearing that word, Su Yu shuddered.
Scenes of Dissection flashed through her mind.
She forced out another smile uglier than crying:
“Is there a third option?”
The robot shook its head, then spoke in a meaningful tone:
“Miss Su Yu, you wouldn’t want your identity as an Online Troll to be made public, would you…”
Su Yu’s vision went black.
She felt like she was already dead.
