One word awakened the dreamer.
The panicking crowds instantly died down as everyone looked at Leinster, who suddenly stopped just a meter away from the potted plant monster.
Such a close distance...
Wasn't it suicide?
"Kieeekkk!"
—Kill you!!
As expected, the plant monster swung its thick roots towards Leinster, and everyone subconsciously squeezed their eyes shut.
It's over.
Either that bastard dies or all of them die.
But Leinster actually...walked leisurely, even closer to the potted plant's thick "legs"!
Slam! Slam!
The roots hit the floor and the tiles cracked, ceramic debris shot out in all directions, some even flying towards Leinster.
But the young man moved with incredible reflex, like an elegant cat. He effortlessly dodged all the debris and stood right at the potted plant's blind spot.
Hidden near the plant monster's own potted plant and its numerous legs, the potted plant instantly lost sight of Leinster.
"Kieekkk!!"
—Ahhh! Where? Where? Where??
The potted plant looked around in confusion, its whole body thrashing around without any direction.
Amidst the roots dancing wildly in the background, Leinster browsed his [Sorrow Store] and immediately found an offensive skill that he liked.
[Level 1 Teardrop bullet: 10 Sorrow Emo/bullet]
[Upgrade to level 2 with only an extra 10 Sorrow Emo!]
[Recommendation: upgrade to level 3 by adding an extra 20 Emo~ (Your current target is level 3!) ]
[Guaranteed one-hit kill for a target of the same level, severe injury for a target one level above the skill~ ]
Seeing this, Leinster nearly vomited blood.
Aish, he didn't have 30 whole Sorrow Emo, just short of 5 points!
He shouldn't have bought the [tear-ing pain] skill just now.
His own ability tricked him with that shtty recommendation!!
And wait, why would this veggie boy become stronger than its sibling back in his ruin?
It's a level 3 monster!
Should he just...run?
Leinster was about to abandon all plans together when he saw the livestream panel at the corner of his vision...precisely, the number of viewers.
Ah, wait, wait...
Leinster slowly smirked like a cat who was plotting to steal canned food.
Hohoho, no wonder his ability recommended buying something that didn't immediately kill the veggie.
Hum, okay, purchase a level 2 Teardrop bullet!
[Deducting 20 Sorrow Emo ••• ]
[Thank you for your purchase, OmO]
Leinster's sorrow gauge was instantly left with only 5 emo, a sight that tore Leinster's fragile heart to pieces.
Wuwuwuwuw, goodbye, my food~
Leinster swiped his tears of sorrow as his right hand slowly produced the same blue-colored mist.
The fifteen survivors and the hundreds of viewers keenly noticed the swirling blue mist on Leinster's right hand and those with prejudices instantly shrieked.
"Ah! Is he going to massacre us to buy time to escape?"
A young girl blurted subconsciously, enticing others around her to nod fearfully.
Leinster's lips twitched at the accusation while the swirling blue mist slowly produced a single drop of water droplet.
It was not even the size of a pinky nail, so small that the viewers almost couldn't see it if the livestream's mysterious camera didn't zoom in.
Once the blue-ish water droplet appeared, Leinster whistled and immediately smiled warmly at the potted plant who was still searching for him as if playing a hide-and-seek game.
"Brother, brother, hey, over here~ "
Leinster's voice attracted the blind potted plant, who relied heavily on scent and voices.
"Kieeek!"
—Got you!!
The potted plant's thick "arm roots" immediately thrust at Leinster, aiming for his head and chest simultaneously.
"Ahhhh— "
The survivors subconsciously screamed in horror, but Leinster didn't budge even for a bit.
He just raised his right hand and flicked his wrist gently....towards the huge pot.
Psiu!
The sparkling blue water droplet flew out of Leinster's palm and instantly tore through the air.
Visible to the naked eyes, the water quickly solidified and the tip became as sharp as a bullet's edge!
The moment the seemingly soft water touched the hard pot...
Crack!
The water droplet pierced through the pot, going straight at the deep roots protected by the pot.
Bang!
The water droplet pierced through the thick roots inside the pot and instantly bored a hole onto it before melting like ordinary water, dripping onto the soil underneath the root.
The plant monster's arm roots' movement suddenly paused midair, just an inch away from Leinster's head and chest.
It was as if someone pressed a pause button.
Leinster quickly took a few steps back before the monster suddenly broke free from the "freezing spell" and shrieked to the sky.
"KIEEEEEKKKK!!!"
—AHHHHHHH!! IT HURTS IT HURTS IT HURTS HURTS HURRTSSSS!!!!
The monster babbled nonsense as its roots trembled violently.
It couldn't even move its tentacles around rashly like before.
A handful of black soil trickled down the hole in the pot and if one looked closer, the soil was actually dyed with a bit of green.
The plant...was bleeding!
And it was bleeding heavily.
The plant's lush "feet roots" dried up in the blink of an eye, with some detached from the pot and left neglected on the floor.
The plant collapsed to the floor and wailed, its voice piercing the survivors and the viewers' hearts.
Following this stunt, the number of viewers suddenly shot up like a rocket!
[Viewers: 200]
[Viewers: 400]
[Viewers: 500]
500 views for just a welfare livestream when the other main livestreams were still there.
It was nothing short of a miracle!
Leinster's cheeks flushed red at the rising number of viewers, his breath becoming rapid.
More! More! 500 isn't enough to get the best luck!
Sensing Leinster's strange state, the survivors and the viewers collectively fell silent, all eyes on a certain someone's silver hair swaying gently in the air.
Noticing his momentary discomposure, Leinster patted his palm and turned around on his heels.
A bright smile bloomed on Leinster's pale face as he cleared his throat.
"Cough, cough. So— can someone tell me about the blocked ruin?"
