The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress-Chapter 853 - 832: Interstellar Superstar 2

Anning is acquainted with the two celebrities who have arrived.

She and these two celebrities are the top three in this reality show for having their personas most shattered.

One is Ning Kexin, who has a pure ’jade girl’ image, but behind the scenes, she’s someone who loves heavy makeup, wearing bright red lipstick and sexy clothes—a persona of a mature and sophisticated woman.

The other is Chu Ming, who plays the role of a naive and soft-hearted young idol, but in reality, he loves to swear and is a no-nonsense rough character.

Anning glanced at the two of them and stepped forward to shake hands with Ning Kexin and Chu Ming with a smile.

Ning Kexin’s cheeks were flushed as she maintained a shy smile on her face, while Chu Ming scratched his hair, making a tuft stick up adorably, making people want to bite him.

Anning kept a straight face and asked Ning Kexin, "Do you know who else is participating this time?"

Ning Kexin shook her head, her voice sweet and soft, "I can’t really say, but I know Fang Xiaolian will be here."

Ning Kexin also didn’t care much for Fang Xiaolian, always feeling that Fang Xiaolian was a very sly person, the type who would hurt others while pretending to be nice. She’d rather face Anning’s cold face than Fang Xiaolian’s bland face, which irritatingly acts all-knowing.

Chu Ming chuckled softly, "I will need to rely on the two of you a lot this time. I... know nothing and worry I’ll be the one holding everyone back."

Anning chuckled lightly, "Don’t worry, let’s all work hard together."

By this time, filming had already begun, all the holographic cameras in the room were turned on, and the livestream was crowded with fans.

The livestream was bursting with people shouting, "Ming Ming is so soft, really adorable, hopefully, this mission isn’t too hard. We can’t bear to see Ming Ming suffer."

Others shouted, "Kexin is so pretty; purely for her looks, I became a fan."

More people were shouting, "Anning is the real beauty, you know. Anning’s face is simply flawless from any angle, too stunning."

"This is the first reality show my Anning is participating in. Support my Anning."

"We support together."

In the hall, several other celebrities arrived one after another, and soon all the participants in the reality show were gathered.

Aside from the three of them, there was Fang Xiaolian and He Gang, known for his tough-guy image, and a member from the newly debuted group Ming Ye and Yu Huayuan, plus the comedy star Ma Fendou.

With eight stars plus their assistants, the previously empty hall now felt a bit crowded.

Anning exchanged a few pleasantries with familiar faces before resting on a sofa in the corner. She sat quietly there, calm and composed, offering a glimpse of serene times gone by.

She didn’t move, yet captured attention, as two holographic cameras surrounded Anning for filming.

Then, many fans began fussing on the livestream, praising Anning’s beauty, saying that even sitting motionless, she looked like a work of art.

After a lot of clamoring, the organizer’s representative entered, officially starting the reality show game.

All eight stars lay down in the holographic nutrient cabins.

The hall held around ten nutrient cabins; eight stars couldn’t occupy them all. The remaining cabins were said to be reserved for special personnel, who would appear in the game at random intervals, possibly as allies or foes, creating chaos or lending help, keeping everyone on their toes.

Anning lay down in the nutrient cabin; the organizer pressed a button, and the cabin quickly closed.

These nutrient cabins contained Nutrient Liquid, allowing a person to lie inside for two weeks without sleeping.

Once a person enters, the body enters a dormant state, but the brainwaves, commonly known as spiritual power, connect with the SkyNet, immersing the person’s mind into a special scenario.

In this scenario, all interactions feel real, whether taste, smell, or pain, just like in real life. If you’re hurt inside, you’ll feel pain; if you die inside, you’ll experience the sensation of death. Everything is extremely real.

As Anning lay down, she heard a voice.

Welcome to the Doomsday Dungeon.

Then, the cabin door closed, and Anning’s body entered a dormant state.

When she opened her eyes again, she was curled up in a particularly cramped, enclosed space.

Anning opened her eyes and glanced around, finding herself in total darkness. She reached out to touch, discovering the space was very confined, only enough for two or three people to stand, yet air was flowing in, not completely sealed.

She frowned, unable to recall how she ended up there.

She remembered ascending as Empress in a Female Venerate World for several decades, then...

What kind of world was this? What was her identity in this world?

After a moment, Anning received some memories.

As it turns out, this was a post-apocalyptic world.

In 2206, a catastrophe struck overnight, turning many people into zombies. Zombies and mutant flora and fauna invaded the human world, leaving humanity virtually unlivable.

Nations built underground cities to protect the surviving humans.

Everyone lived in underground cities.

Without sunlight and scarce water, with the large populations squeezed together, resources distributed to each individual were pitifully small.

Scarcity of resources naturally bred much darkness.

No matter how strictly managed, there were many criminals in the underground city.

Anning was only in her early teens when the apocalypse hit. Now, several years after the underground city was established, she seemed just over twenty. She developed her superpower in the third year of the apocalypse, as a Water Element Superpower User.

This body was an orphan, normally solitary, besides providing water to the base, she trained her superpower at home.

Her current environment was the enclosed space of an underground train carriage, locked in a cage, being transported from City A to City C’s research institute.

Her body had been injected with a Superpower Suppressant and, along with other superpower users, she was being sent to the research institute.

With these memories, Anning wasn’t anxious. She sat down and closed her eyes to rejuvenate, while seeking ways to overcome the suppressant effects.

She discovered the suppressant targeted the Crystal Core within the body, preventing superpower users from utilizing their abilities.

Superpower users in the underground city were controlled this way, becoming mere humans, even weaker than regular ones when injected by criminals.

Others feared, but Anning did not.

Without using abilities, she’d find other ways—there were always more solutions than problems.

Though she appeared to be resting, she was communicating with the Spiritual Energy of this world.

Meanwhile, she trained her spiritual power.

Anning perceived that, despite being a post-apocalyptic world, it was a world of Spiritual Energy revival.

Even in a closed space, she could sense the exuberant Spiritual Energy.

Anning tried to introduce energy into her body while utilizing spiritual power training techniques to enhance her spiritual power.
