Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Everyone’s breathing stopped at this moment.
Four living people were smashed to death just like that?
Such a bloody scene?
It shouldn’t have happened!
Originally, the coffin was made of simple thin wood, and there were even signs of decay in some places.
Even two people could carry the coffin away. Four people could at least stop the coffin from sliding down.
After all, the coffin didn’t fall straight down!
It slid down from the slope!
However!
It just happened!
The four of them were smashed to death just like that!
Almost everyone had seen it clearly just now!
That coffin slid down in an instant!
This didn’t make any sense!
It was too strange!
It was so eerie that it sent shivers down your spine!
Though Li Yidao was prepared for this, he did not expect it to be so tragic!
If not for his strong heart, by now, he might have already run to the side and vomited like the villagers…
As for the live stream, it exploded instantly!
“What the heck was that?”
“Why is it blurred? Has the live stream’s functionality become so powerful now?”
“D*mn it! I just come back to my sense, and a sip of milk tea almost choked me!”
“Is the milk tea legitimate milk tea, upstairs?”
“No, he was killed? Four of them were directly killed!”
“Holy sh*t! Brother Dao is too awesome! Is there any justice left? I just want to ask! Is anyone in charge? When will the other four be killed?”
“I’m outta here! Seriously scared now! D*mn it!”
“By the way, why hasn’t Brother Dao’s live stream been banned yet? But it’s blurred now.”
“Haha, ban Brother Dao’s live stream? Aren’t you afraid he’ll retaliate and follow you?”
At this moment, in the office of the General Manager of the live stream platform, Wang Shengqiang wiped his forehead, still feeling lingering fear!
Fortunately, he had prepared in advance!
After all, Brother Dao’s live stream was filled with unexpected events!
Directly banning it? The losses would be enormous!
So, he and the technical team had worked out a plan early on!
Whenever there was any problem in Brother Dao’s live stream, they would apply mosaic directly!
They had someone monitoring Brother Dao’s live stream from the beginning!
That was why the mosaic had appeared in that instant!
This way, they retained the traffic without violating any rules.
It could be considered a very good solution.
But the mosaic was really annoying to the viewers.
Li Yidao watched as everyone was in a panic.
He walked over slowly.
Looking at the tragedy in the deep pit, he knew they needed to report this to the police.
So, he took out his phone and made the call.
After all, this was a direct incident resulting in the death of four people. The police couldn’t just brush it off without a thorough investigation.
Soon enough, the police and forensic personnel rushed to the scene.
What surprised Li Yidao was that the one leading the team was Li Hui.
But since they knew each other, things would be easier to handle.
What Li Yidao didn’t know was that the reason Li Hui came was because this incident involved him!
He had been under special scrutiny for a long time!
Many departments were watching him, so Li Hui became a handy person to have around.
Whenever there was anything related to Li Yidao, this “acquaintance” of his would be present. This would make communication smoother.
After the investigation, it was confirmed that it was an accident.
With so many witnesses and millions of live stream viewers, there was no doubt about it.
Cao Yajing’s coffin was carried back to the village by the villagers.
With Li Yidao’s guidance, they rebuilt the mourning hall.
The coffin was left there for another two days.
On the third day, they climbed back to the mountaintop and laid Cao Yajing to rest in a peaceful spot.
It wasn’t a particularly auspicious Feng Shui location, but it was enough to soothe Cao Yajing’s restless soul.
This location cost Li Yidao two years of his lifespan.
It was far better than an ordinary burial site.
With everything taken care of, Li Yidao returned to his funeral shop on the third evening.
It had been three days since he left.
As he returned, Li Yidao felt an infinite sense of emotion.
Birth, age, illness, and death were all part of one’s fate.
Upon Li Yidao’s return to the funeral shop, as he just opened the door, the system’s prompt sounded once again!
“Ding dong! Detected that the host has completed a follow-up mission, the reward for the third stage system advanced mission will be issued.”
“Ding dong! Detected that there are unsettled rewards in the current cumulative pool. The reward will be issued according to the current accumulation of the business accumulation pool.”
“The rewards are as follows…”
Li Yidao now had doubts about whether this system could recognize his home.
Why did it always settle the rewards when he returned to the funeral shop?
However, he didn’t dwell on it and proceeded to check the system rewards.
As expected, the cumulative pool reward was lifespan again.
He wasn’t sure if the four deaths today were accidental or due to their relatively young age, but they contributed a total of 438 years of lifespan!
It could count as a huge harvest!
As for the advanced rewards, he received a new skill.
[Death Investigation: Allows the detailed investigation of the cause and process of death for individuals prompted by the system. Different investigations consume varying amounts of lifespan, and multiple investigations on the same person will multiply the lifespan consumption!]
“So, this skill allows me to understand the detailed cause and process of people’s deaths? But what’s the use of having this skill when I can’t even warn them?”
Li Yidao mumbled and felt powerless to complain.
His eyes were filled with helplessness.
Even if he knew more about their deaths, he couldn’t help or stop them. What was the use of acquiring this skill?
But just as Li Yidao felt frustrated, the familiar system voice rang out again!
“Ding dong! The host has completed the third stage mission, meeting the criteria for full system access. The opened content is as follows.”
Subsequent cumulative pool rewards will be issued in real-time.]
The business reward function is fully upgraded, and rewards for follow-up missions are no longer limited to skills. Please explore specific rewards on your own, host.]
Skill usage conditions have been comprehensively adjusted. For detailed adjustments, please refer to the skill usage instructions, host.]
The system task function is now open, and the specific task release mode is random.]
Hearing this series of prompts, Li Yidao was completely dumbfounded.
He stood at the door and immediately checked the system’s changes.
The most significant changes were seen in the two skills, “Blade of Death” and “Hand of God”.
The most crucial change was that when using these two skills, they could now investigate the remaining lifespan of the target!
They also had the freedom to choose the consumption of lifespan!
In simple terms, when using these skills, they didn’t need to consume the entire remaining lifespan of the target at once.
They could choose to use only a portion of it, and the effects obtained would be proportional.
For example, when using the “Hand of God,” even if the target had fifty years of remaining lifespan, Li Yidao could choose to heal only ten years of the person’s life!
This newfound control was highly beneficial.
It meant that he no longer had to worry about killing himself while trying to kill or save someone.
Very good… very nice.
Of course, some basic requirements still needed to be met.
Li Yidao couldn’t just freely decide to kill or save anyone.
Some limitations needed to exist, which was entirely reasonable.
However!
Both “Hand of God” and “Blade of Death” came with a special note!
If the current skill usage conditions were not met, the cost of using the skill forcibly would be ten times the lifespan! This note completely shocked Li Yidao!
What did this mean?
It represented an absolute power!
It meant that as long as he had enough lifespan, he could truly control the life and death of others!
One could even say that Li Yidao is truly the Grim Reaper!
Huff…
Even Li Yidao himself couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
This was a test for himself!
With a helpless shake of his head and a wry smile, he decided not to think about it for now.
Whether to use such power would depend on the actual situation.
He was not a rigid person, and if someone truly offended him, using “Blade of Death” wouldn’t make him feel guilty!
For the time being, he chose not to dwell on the changes in the system.
Li Yidao walked into his bedroom and turned on the light.
Now he just wanted to get a good night’s sleep.
But as he was about to lie down, he suddenly froze in place!
An icy chill rushed from his feet to his head!
He found that the most important thing in his bedroom was gone!
Who?
Who would steal something so seemingly worthless to others?
