The hoarse male's cry abruptly gagged all the other cries.
Everyone, including the bob-haired woman and Leinster looked at the pot-belly middle-aged man with wide eyes.
Huh? What?
The middle-aged man immediately rattled in a hurry, his saliva flew everywhere and he even bit his tongue.
"I-It— ! It's true! Look! T-there is something blocking the door! W-we can't enter!"
The man's words were met with sharp hissing noises and everyone pounced at the door with reddened eyes.
"Impossible! How could this be??"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Ah! What the hell! An invisible barrier??"
"Why? Why?? I-it shouldn't be like this— "
The people pounded the door until their fists turned red and bled.
With more than ten people crowding at the door, no one noticed Leinster who was sitting on the floor.
Some even accidentally shoved Leinster around, kicking him to the rear of the group.
Unfortunately, no matter how the people screamed and pounded the door, the potted plant's two tentacles still reached out to the selected few at the rear.
Swish!
One of the tentacles strangled a skinny, weak-looking man.
"A-ahhhh! Help! Help! I don't wanna die— "
The other one...blind as it was, actually shot at Leinster's waist.
The poor alien had just been kicked around and was slowly standing up when something grabbed his waist and yanked his entire body into the air.
....
Fck?
Leinster gripped the thick thing around his waist as he quickly clenched and opened his fist.
C'mon, level 2 corrosive liquid—
DING! [Sorry, OmO! Your Wrath Emo balance is insufficient!]
Leinster almost dislocated his waist.
Insufficient his foot!!
As if knowing that Leinster's current situation could be a hot topic, the system's notification rang out joyfully.
DING! [It is detected that the challenger is in an Active Ruin Zone!]
[Do you want to open a welfare livestream?]
[PS: In the welfare livestream, you will only get life votes and no death votes!]
[PS2: It is advised to open the blind box reward after you have a certain number of viewers. The more viewers, the luckier you will be!]
Okay, okay, just turn on the livestream!
Leinster couldn't care less and in less than a second, it was as if an invisible eyeball cracked open in the air, slowly gazing at Leinster from a certain angle.
Leinster, who didn't feel this prickly gaze even when he was in the [Ruin] before, subconsciously shuddered.
He felt that someone was targeting him!
Simultaneously, everyone's phones buzzed, nearly scaring the timid ones to death.
"A-ah! W-what's with the phone?"
"Could it be...the Death League App?"
In such a dire situation, no one would check their phones, not even their Death League App, but what if there was a new announcement that could affect their lives?
Seeing that the monster was distracted by the two "sacrifices", everyone, including the woman in a bob cut, quickly took out their phones and saw their Death League App sending a push-up notification.
[A streamer in a radius 10 meters from you has opened a welfare livestream!]
[Come and support your local streamer by sending them Life Votes.]
The survivors almost dropped their phones.
What? There's a streamer around them?
A...Death Challenger?
Everyone quickly opened the named livestream and saw the same scene as the one happening right in front of their eyes—
Two people dragged the potted plant's head, about to be dropped into its mouth.
The skinny man had long fainted from fright, leaving only a silver-haired one, someone so conspicuous yet no one had noticed him before.
At the sight of the young man and his name on the livestream's title, the bob-haired woman gasped.
"Ah! Isn't he that one— "
The other survivors were confused for a second but then, who didn't know about the nation-wide infamous criminal?
Everyone sucked in their breaths and almost kneeled.
It's Leinster Raine!
Leinster himself didn't know that the number of viewers in his livestream had soared to 15 and was still quickly climbing to 50.
At the moment, he was busy searching his "store", which was actually just a visualisation of his superpower.
[OmO, OmO, check out today's recommendations!]
The [Fear Store] section was glowing in a golden light and among the list of skills, one was burning with a green flame.
[Highly recommended!]
[Lvl 1 Tearing Pain: 1 purchase will last 1 second for a target of the same level as the caster!]
[Buy with just 5 Sorrow Emo!]
[Add 1 Sorrow Emo to prolong the pain duration per 1 second~]
Oho, this one is definitely the cheapest skill he has ever seen in his [Emo Market] various shops.
You shall be the chosen one!
Leinster immediately "purchased" the [Tear-ing Pain] and the OmO panel immediately jumped and down excitedly.
DING! [Thank you for your purchase, OmO~]
[Deducting 5 Sorrow Emo ••• ]
[Balance: 25 Sorrow Emo]
The purchase happened in less than a second and the next moment, a blue mist rose from Leinster's palm, slowly condensing a strange water droplet.
At the same time, Leinster was already close to the gigantic plant's mouth, so close that he could sense the putrid smell of flesh, blood and other things.
Scrunching his nose in disgust, Leinster flicked the newly-formed blue water droplet straight into the monster's mouth.
"Drink some water, little veggie!"
Drip.
The water droplet slid effortlessly into the monster's mouth and the next second...
