Chapter 381: Earthquake in Dongqing (13)

In the face of Jiang Pengji’s reprimand, the System looked like it didn’t care about anything; it was like a dead mouse that felt nothing.

It could not destruct itself now and escape. It could only hope to anger Jiang Pengji to the point that she would destroy it herself.

It had to admit that it had belittled her… It took her lightly because, in its mind, Jiang Pengji was only a lowly ant.

Jiang Pengji saw through its mind and said softly, “The mental brain domain is your cage. I’ll get rid of the both of you at once when I get ahold of your noumenon. If I get rid of you now, I would only be acting rashly and alerting the enemy…”

Even though the System was just a virtual awareness program, it was so terrified that it got goosebumps.

“Are you dumb? Since my mental brain domain is 3S, do you think I can’t sense that your mental brain domain is abnormal?”

The System was speechless. It was suddenly rendered speechless.

It indeed split itself into two for replication. Its noumenon had most of the energy and ability. The part that was separated replicated the incomplete data of its noumenon, forming another “Court Intrigue System,” which was the part that was now attached to Jiang Pengji.

“If I kill you, your noumenon will be aware of it immediately. This will alert the enemy. If I let you escape and merge your noumenon with the separated part, you will have the same level of mental brain domain as me. Am I not creating a strong enemy for no reason?”

Jiang Pengji did not understand it. Who gave the System the confidence that it thought she could not see through such child’s play?

“Just stay in your prison cell obediently. I’ll feed you energy regularly, and make sure that you are neither hungry nor full.” As she finished speaking, she cut off the System’s external awareness communication channel and blocked its noise.

In an instant, she felt that the whole world was different. Her ears were completely at peace. Her dispute with the System only took 15 minutes. In the eyes of the audience in the streaming room, she had simply zoned out.

Although she had to handle the operations manually without the System’s assistance, it was a lot safer for her without the System constantly lurking as a hidden sense of danger.

At that moment, she realized that many functions in the streaming room’s back-end were gray.

Jiang Pengji smacked her lips and brought out some back-end data, which was even more detailed.

At a glance, the System modified the initial data. The keyword, which had been set previously, completely limited the possibility of another dimension discovering her. If the viewers’ comments were “prohibited,” they would be kicked out immediately and their IPs would be barred. Therefore, Jiang Pengji could only encounter onlookers.

Under the System’s concealment, Jiang Pengji could not even see the content at all.

It was a pity that even though she confined the System’s awareness, she had no authority to change the back-end data. In other words, the way the streaming room was currently operated would remain the same in the future. She was unable to upgrade her level and update the data…

It was seriously an emasculated version of the streaming room… Tsk. Jiang Pengji looked disgusted.

However, as long as the streaming room was still there, the audience could still be seen, and she could exchange for rice, which she currently needed, at the virtual shopping mall. That was enough.

She comforted herself that way, but she still felt somewhat dissatisfied in her heart. However, the dissatisfaction soon disappeared.

“Wow… This is amazing!” Jiang Pengji was looking at the back-end popularity points, which totaled 111 million.

She quickly rummaged through the back-end data. She only then realized where the tens of millions of popularity points, which popped up of nowhere, came from. Jiang Pengji had restrained the System’s awareness. The points in its account were then directly transferred to her back-end account.

The ultimate reason the System attached to her was unknown, but there was a very clear goal: to exploit the popularity points by using all sorts of tricks.

With every “upgrade,” the System would take the opportunity to transfer the exploited popularity points to its noumenon. Of course, under Jiang Pengji’s deliberate obstruction, it could only transfer very few popularity points to its noumenon. Most of the points were saved up by the System bitterly and frugally.

For the earthquake, the audience in the streaming room rewarded her enthusiastically, and the System received half of the popularity points that came through. The System did not have the time to be happy. It sought death by touching Jiang Pengji’s last nerve. Both parties shed all pretenses of cordiality and unfortunately, it was being confined.

At last, the popularity points that the System had accumulated during that period of time had all been pocketed by Jiang Pengji.

At that moment…

Yingyang Kuaixian: “Are you not feeling well?”

Laosiji Lianmeng: “Do you guys think that the streamer is possessed? She didn’t move at all, then she suddenly made some gestures in the air with her fingers, and now she’s smiling without rhyme or reason… Perhaps the wound on her back has affected her brain.”

Jiang Pengji regained her senses and looked a lot gentler. She replied to the audience in the streaming room, who had been anxiously waiting.

Host V: “Cough. I’m sorry to keep everyone waiting. I was negotiating with the person in charge of the streaming just now. Due to confidentiality, it’s inappropriate for me to disclose too much. However, through my utmost efforts to fight for my point of view, the other party is willing to open up another channel in the agricultural dimension. The rewards can be used in exchange for the same amount of food and medicinal herbs. However, in order to not affect the dimension, in accordance with the rules between the dimensions, only a limited variety of things can be exchanged.”

The bullet screen posted by Jiang Pengji was the longest that she had posted in the history of her streaming room. Upon hearing the news, the audience in the streaming room was suddenly filled with excitement.

Yingyang Kuaixian: “Oh my gosh. The streamer is an employee of the legendary multidimensional streaming company that’s written about in novels!”

Wahaha: “Eh, I feel so classy after hearing what the streamer said.”

Motorola: “Oh my gosh. Is there another streamer like the streamer?”

The audience in the streaming room was enlightened and asked all sorts of questions. Jiang Pengji gave them a unified reply.

Host V: “I’m not an employee of a multidimensional streaming company. I’m just a jinx who wanders about in time and space. I’m helping someone temporarily, upon their request. I didn’t really like streaming at first––I still don’t really like it, even after doing it for a few years. However, I like all of you very much. I also like the feeling of chatting with you all during the streaming. I’m not sure whether there are streamers in the other dimensions. I only know that it’s just me for now…”

She chatted generally for a while. The audience in the streaming room slowly accepted her words.

Yinyuejia Zhuge Qinmo: “A lot of relief supplies are needed for the earthquake, and they take up a lot of space. How are you going to explain where they came from to the outsiders? If you don’t give a good explanation, I think your friends around you will be suspicious.”

There were benefits in having incompetent teammates. Even the imitator was full of flaws… Blind and incompetent teammates might not have noticed that something was wrong.

Competent teammates were different. People who were too smart were difficult to deal with. Once they grew suspicious, it would not be easy for them to banish their doubts.

Jiang Pengji had, of course, considered that problem.

Host V: “Don’t worry. Just sit and watch me perform. I’ll lose if I can’t deceive them successfully.”

Upon seeing the comment, many viewers suddenly began to feel sorry for Xu Ke and Feng Jin. She got up and brushed off the dust from her clothes.

She calculated the time and realized that Huaiyu should have finished writing the booklet. It was not known as to what the situation on Xiaoyu’s side was.
