Chapter 2: Activating Live Streaming
Wang Dali's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Damn it, am I really this incompetent?
Apart from luck, all of my values are below the average for adult males? Wow, maybe I didn't exercise enough, but it shouldn't be this bad, right?
Wang Dali felt frustrated.
Well, okay, I may be a weakling, but so what? My luck is through the roof, way above the human average, reaching 14.
Ha, this is like having the goddess of luck on my side. No wonder the ship sank; I couldn't drown even if I tried. I'm like a cockroach, indestructible.
Before Wang Dali could bask in his newfound confidence, the system voice continued.
"Establish global online broadcasting, covering information in over 190 countries and regions worldwide, with real-time translation of information, and link the host's bank encrypted account—"
Almost simultaneously, a live streaming website appeared on the global internet. Thanks to unknown black technology, the information on this website could instantly connect to the entire world.
In over 190 countries and regions, as long as there's internet access, people can tune in. Moreover, the information on the website is translated in real-time, allowing people from all countries and regions to see and hear in their native language.
"What, global live streaming? And real-time translation?" Wang Dali was dumbfounded. Was this some kind of alien super technology?
Invading the global internet, establishing a website, hacking into the world bank system, setting up encrypted accounts, and all done instantly. Damn, it's incredible!
In Wang Dali's mind, information flashed immediately.
"The website's international domain name is WDL—"
"This is my name's abbreviation in uppercase! Wow, I actually have my own website, and it's a global live streaming platform?" Wang Dali felt instantly powerful!
"Haha, I'm about to launch a groundbreaking venture worldwide, become a CEO, win over the rich and beautiful, and reach the pinnacle of life!" Wang Dali smirked, unable to contain his excitement, bursting into laughter.
Yes, Wang Dali was naturally optimistic, with a thick-skinned attitude and never knowing what depression meant!
Then Wang Dali noticed something.
All the website's content had been set up with black technology. The website was simple, with only one live video frame, currently not yet activated.
On either side of the live video were various communication systems, tipping systems, and pay-per-view systems, and everything else that a live streaming platform should have, and even more. But currently, the viewer count displayed was zero.
"This extraordinary exploration has been triggered!"
"Received rookie package, with 1 remaining skill point. Do you wish to exchange for a skill—Basic Rock Climbing."
Wang Dali suddenly felt enlightened, gaining a lot of wilderness survival knowledge, thanks to the rookie package reward. With 1 skill point remaining, he immediately exchanged it for a basic rock climbing skill.
"Extraordinary exploration area: Death Island."
"Exploration tasks:
1. Cross Death Island from the registration point to the north, reaching the giant stone formation at the northern end of the island, and live stream the entire journey. Completion reward: 10 God points.
2. Within three days, achieve a live viewer count of 10 million. Reward: 10 God points (reward increases with viewer count exceeding 10 times).
Failure penalty: Obliteration!"
"What the hell, live stream the whole journey?"
Wang Dali exclaimed. And I have to reach 10 million online viewers within three days?
Failure means obliteration?!!!
Damn it, 10 million viewers online? Isn't that impossible? Damn you, God System, are you trying to make me fail the mission?
Wait a minute—
Wang Dali's mind suddenly lit up.
"Haha, this is a lifesaver! It's news! The Brunei Queen cruise ship capsized, with numerous top celebrities and tycoons missing. This is even more explosive news than the Titanic incident years ago. Right now, there's probably no accurate information about the shipwreck anywhere in the world. At most, it's just a case of the ship being missing. As long as I can be the first to release the news, I'll attract attention for sure!"
"Wow haha, there's always a way out!"
Wang Dali wanted to laugh out loud triumphantly, sing praises, but then the system beeped, continuing to display information.
"Host, do you wish to start the live stream immediately?"
"Yes!"
Wang Dali clenched his fist triumphantly.
As the live stream began, the only video frame on the extraordinary exploration website showed the stormy sea.
On the towering coast, beneath the black rocky cliffs, an Asian youth was half submerged in the surging sea, gripping onto the rocks, preparing to climb.
The video quality was an astonishing 8K!
Wang Dali's mind also displayed a screen, connecting to the live stream video.
"Damn!"
Wang Dali was also shocked; the clarity was unbelievable.
8K.
7680x4320.
At such a high resolution, every raindrop in the stormy sea, every drop of rainwater and scar on Wang Dali's face, and the texture of the black, cold rocks behind him were all vividly clear.
"This is incredible!"
Wang Dali was stunned by the ultimate resolution. Upon closer inspection, beside the video frame, there were options to adjust to 6K, 4K, 2K, and 1080P.
Wang Dali checked the panel data and found that just after activation, 2896 people had already tuned in.
