Chapter 315: Skinner

Meanwhile, on the chat channels, many people were closely following the major events unfolding in this world!

Reports of snow beasts appearing, unfortunate stories of survivors, and accounts of rising figures who rapidly gained strength, even defeating the top-ranked fierce individuals globally.

There was a myriad of news and updates.

Of course, the news of the turmoil in Waldo’s Dawn City and its swift suppression quickly spread far and wide.

"What? Daring to rebel against Waldo? Hahaha, it’s simply hilarious! Do they even know who Waldo is? Just having his name there is enough to deter any rebellion from succeeding!"

"Who knows what those people were thinking, acting so recklessly!"

"There’s no need to ponder the outcome. But, gotta admit, this Waldo guy is really formidable!"

People expressed their opinions.

All of them were mocking, ridiculing those who rebelled, considering them brainless and lacking intelligence.

At first, when they heard this news, they didn’t quite believe it, thinking it was just a rumor.

After all, it was just too outrageous.

Daring to rebel against Waldo, how incredibly foolish!

However, subsequent streams of news made them have to believe this outrageous fact.

In response, they could only say those people deserved their fate.

At the same time, Waldo was idly browsing various pieces of information.

He came across various reports and comments about Dawn City.

But he wasn’t particularly interested.

Afterward, he flipped through page after page of various information.

"What’s all this? Boring. I’m outta here!"

Waldo had no interest in all the gossip news and couldn’t find the information he was looking for. So, he decided to leave.

However, just at that moment, he suddenly saw a livestream.

A livestream? What kind of livestream?

Waldo was momentarily taken aback.

Then, with some curiosity, he clicked to enter.

In the next moment, a survivor in his thirties, clad in a combat suit, addressed everyone.

This person naturally was the anchor.

"Hello everyone, I’m your Skinner. Today, let’s get close to the snow beasts and see just how formidable they are!

"The location we are heading to is a small hill outside the Iron City. According to reliable information, there have been traces of snow beast activity around Iron City recently, and many unfortunate individuals have fallen victim to them!"

"Today, Skinner is risking his life to lead you all and witness what real snow beasts are like!"

The man in the footage spoke confidently.

Waldo didn’t know who Skinner was, he hadn’t heard of him before. Later, from the barrage of comments, Waldo learned a few things.

Turns out, this Skinner was a very powerful individual.

Ranked 101st in the global power rankings!

It was a pity, just a little more and he could have made it to the top hundred, earning the right to establish a city.

Many even claimed that if it weren’t for Skinner’s bad luck—missing the snow beast hunt during the rankings announcement—causing his low ranking, he could have easily made it to the top hundred.

"Skinner, I love you!"

"Is Skinner planning to perform a beast-slaying battle today? I’m all prepared, you do your thing!"

"Wow, it’s Skinner! Skinner, what’s been up with you lately? Why no streams! You have no idea how agonizing it’s been without you. Sob, sob, sob."

"Skinner is invincible, go go go!"

"Charge, Skinner! I love you!"

The barrage of comments scrolled rapidly, and many people were watching.

Waldo glanced at the viewer count in the livestream.

It was as high as a hundred thousand.

This surprised Waldo somewhat.

Seems like this person is really impressive! Having such high viewership!

Waldo couldn’t help but become a bit interested.

Since he was bored anyway, he continued watching.

In the footage, Skinner had finished his introduction.

"Brothers, without further ado, I’m setting off to the destination right away. Wish me luck, and let’s rack up some experience points. As long as you give me experience, you’re all my big brothers!"

Skinner said with a playful grin.

This elicited a round of hearty laughter in the livestream room.

And indeed, some viewers started sending gifts.

Moreover, the experience points from the gifts were quite substantial. Energized by the rewards, Skinner wasted no more time and quickly got into action.

He hopped onto a snowmobile.

And sped off towards the front.

But not long after, he suddenly stopped!

"???"

"What’s going on? Why did he stop again?"

"Did the vehicle break down? Man, I’ve been telling you to get a new one! How long have you been using this one? It’s been attacked by snow beasts; it’s bound to break down sooner or later!"

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you looking at?"

"The anchor isn’t saying anything? Trying to act cool?"

"???"

Seeing him stop, the barrage was filled with confusion.

In the stream, the man named Skinner suddenly came to a halt and looked in a certain direction.

Because the spot he was gazing at was beyond the livestream’s coverage, the audience didn’t know what exactly he was looking at.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Skinner’s smile gradually faded, replaced by a serious expression.

"Everyone, hold on a moment, I’ll be right back!"

Having said that, Skinner disappeared from the livestream and headed towards that direction.

"What’s going on? Did Skinner discover something? Adjust the camera and let us see too!"

"Oh no, Skinner looks very serious. Something bad seems to have happened, and it could be significant. Let’s not speculate and wait for a bit!"

"I hope nothing bad happens to Skinner!"

At this moment, a wave of confusion swept through the barrage.

Even Waldo was curious and focused on the screen, eager to see what was happening!

Shortly after, Skinner reappeared on the screen.

His face looked even grimmer.

He addressed everyone, saying, "Brothers, just now, I found a very significant piece of information. On the snowy ground, can you guess what I found? That’s right, bloodstains, a lot of bloodstains!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

His destination this time was a snowy mountain outside the Black Iron City.

It was said that there was a lot of snow beast activity there, and he wanted to investigate.

Essentially, everyone had a curious mind.

He capitalized on people’s curiosity and frequently went to dangerous areas that ordinary people couldn’t reach.

It was precisely because of his daring and fearlessness, venturing into dangerous zones several times, that he gained such a massive following.

And he was known to people as Skinner.

However, this livestream had only just begun, and it seemed to have encountered some twists and turns.

He had only recently left Black Iron City and already encountered signs of snow beasts.

This was not a good omen.

It indicated that there was a lot of snow beast activity outside Black Iron City.

If he really goes to his destination, there will likely be more dangers on the way.

The possibility of encountering snow beasts is quite high.

"Brothers, you can see it too, this journey is very perilous. I hope everyone can move their fingers and give me, Skinner, a reward to encourage me, alright?"

Skinner noticed many people sending gifts, and with a determined expression, like a soldier heading to the battlefield, he said, "Originally, I was considering giving up on this mission. However, seeing how supportive you all are, I won’t mind the danger and will go for it!"

"Come, let me first show you the traces left by the snow beasts. I definitely won’t deceive you all!"

Later, Skinner arrived on a snowy field.

Due to heavy snow, nothing was visible.

However, when Skinner cleared away the surface snow, a large area of bloody red appeared before everyone.

In addition, there were various scattered body parts.

This scene was very shocking.

Only when a person is almost torn to shreds would such a scene occur.

It was truly hair-raising.

"I can’t believe there really is snow beast activity! Initially, I thought this guy was just saying this to trick us into giving him experience points. Turns out, it’s true!"

"Skinner, don’t be afraid, we’re with you!"

"Actually finding traces of snow beasts, it seems like they just passed through not long ago!"

"I have a feeling something’s not right. Seriously, we’re so close to Black Iron City, there shouldn’t be snow beasts here, how did they appear?"

"People from Black Iron City are extremely frightened. I’m sure I won’t dare to go out again in the future! It’s too terrifying. Snow beasts appearing so close, with my strength, I wouldn’t even be enough for a snow beast’s slap!"

Upon seeing a vast expanse of crimson in the footage, everyone chimed in.

To be honest, they had some doubts about what Skinner had said earlier.

After all, streamers create hype, and seven or eight out of ten things they say are usually false.

As a result, they hadn’t expected that traces of snow beasts would actually appear.

However, precisely because of this, it ignited everyone’s interest even more.

The reason they watch Skinner’s livestream is precisely for the thrill, isn’t it?

What they love the most is these tense and exciting scenes.

Therefore, they were even more excited than before.

Many even kept sending gifts.

Seeing that many more people were giving gifts all at once, and the experience points he was gaining were increasing, Skinner was overjoyed.

However, on the surface, he still had to figure out a way to hide his excited expression.

He put on a heavy look of hesitation and inner conflict!
