The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 996 - 383: Interstellar Survival Livestream (Part 7)
Evening fell, and the sky gradually darkened.
He Hongtian sat by the fire pit, using the firelight to shave the branches one by one with his dagger.
Each branch had a sharp end, very pointed.
He Hongtian piled these branches beside his hand, ready to grab anytime.
Then, he used a triangular dagger to dig the soil, setting several traps around the shelter.
The traps were shallow, just a thin layer of soil, but they had ropes woven from vines and cloth strips.
If anyone or any animal stepped on them and missed, they would be bound by the ropes and suspended in mid-air.
While making the traps, He Hongtian reached out and operated his smart bracelet.
Initially, the viewers thought he had finally realized he hadn’t turned on the light screen and was about to activate it to interact with them.
But before they could prepare their comments, the livestream suddenly went black.
"Did Doctor He drop out?"
"Can’t be, there’s no attacker!"
"Could he have been bitten by a snake or some small venomous creature?!"
The viewers were bewildered, feeling a surreal sense like a dream.
Then, as if realizing something, they quickly entered the public livestream room.
Based on He Hongtian’s previous location, they found the holographic livestream of that area.
Two massive trees with a makeshift shelter between them.
In front of the shelter, several fire pits, the largest had an aluminum lunch box hanging above it.
The water in the lunch box was boiling, bubbling with steam.
This scene... was quite familiar; it’s what they’ve been watching for nearly a day.
But, where’s He Hongtian?
How did he disappear?!"
"I know! Doctor He must have activated the shielding function!"
"Shielding? What’s he doing? Doesn’t seem like he’s getting ready to sleep!"
"Exactly, no girls or handsome boys around, and he’s not doing anything embarrassing, why use shielding?"
The viewers were startled and began chatting incessantly.
"Shielding" is quite a humane function setting in adventure livestreaming.
Although the livestreams run twenty-four-seven, the adventurers participating are basically deprived of rights—either criminals or fugitives.
But they’re still human; personal matters occur.
Like sleeping, like going to the bathroom, or doing something a bit more thrilling with someone.
To emphasize so-called human rights, the show stipulates: a total of five hours daily personal time for adventurers.
During this time, adventurers can activate the shielding function.
In this manner, apart from those around the adventurer who can see him (or her) with the naked eye.
The show team, viewers of the livestream, cannot capture this adventurer via holographic imaging.
Some adventurers, especially females, utilize this time for convenience, bathing, or sleeping.
Of course, there are also ambitious adventurers who discover the strategic use of the "shielding" function’s other merits.
Using this period to execute secret plans not suitable for the public eye.
Like He Hongtian, digging traps or raiding others’ camps.
After all, without "shielding," viewers can discover their movements through the livestream cameras.
If rival fans undercover in the respective stream decipher their plans and alert others, wouldn’t it all be in vain?
With the shielding function, viewers can’t always keep God’s Eye View active.
And the adventurers’ actions become more tense, thrilling, and filled with uncertainties.
Therefore, even though some protest against granting human rights or privacy to felons and death row inmates, the adventure livestream’s "shielding" function remains.
He Hongtian’s livestream room originally didn’t have many fans.
Now he activated "shielding," playing disappearance, and the stream was entirely deserted.
So, when the five hours of "shielding" ended and the scene of He Hongtian lying in the shelter sleeping returned to the livestream, there were no comments or attention.
He Hongtian didn’t mind at all.
He seemed to be lying asleep, but was actually practicing Junior Master Uncle’s Wuji Technique.
This was a magical discovery he made during his two days in prison: if he continuously practiced Wuji Technique, he wouldn’t feel tired or fatigued even without sleep or rest.
And if he really wanted to sleep, he could fall asleep instantly and quickly enter a deep sleep state.
In deep sleep, one hour of rest felt equivalent to four or five hours for an average person.
Before practicing, He Hongtian had already taken a one-hour nap.
