With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

In another location, the host had already begun reading the inner monologues of the players in the living room.

Viewers watched the tense plot while being made both amused and exasperated by the host's narration, yet they didn't want to miss a single second.

"Housekeeper, something suddenly came up at home, so I won't be participating in the interview today." Wei Qingrong tried to control her emotions and appear as natural as possible. "It would be best if we could reschedule for another day."

The host read Wei Qingrong's inner monologue: Even though he knew leaving wouldn't be easy, Wei Qingrong still wanted to try. He had elderly parents and young children to support, and his whole family was waiting for good news. He was the pillar of his family; he couldn't afford to fail here. The more he thought about it, the more regretful Wei Qingrong became. If he had known it was so remote, he shouldn't have come. Or he should have checked the place and the company's background first. But now, it was too late for regrets.

I'm seriously... about to die laughing here.

[We had already empathized with Mr. Wei's dire situation and were worried for him, but after the host read the narration, we couldn't help but laugh.]

Although the narration was a bit distracting, I didn't want to miss a single second; the show would be incomplete without any of those segments.

[Weren't there shows that imitated this variety show before? They tried a completely immersive experience, removing all the narration, but that actually made it quite boring.]

[Yes, yes, I was bored at the time, so I watched that show too. I realized that the host reading the narration, which many people had complained about, was actually so important. Without this element, the show would be much less fun and would be quite boring.]

The point of watching variety shows is to relax; if you want non-stop high-energy entertainment, you might as well watch a mind-bending movie with a tight plot. Even the most immersive live-streamed variety show can't match the gripping storyline of a film. Therefore, immersive performances can become quite dull.

“Mr. Wei, I’m afraid it’s not possible now.” The butler still wore a gentle smile when facing Wei Qingrong, but everyone present could see the coldness and unyielding attitude in his eyes.

"Why?" Xue Lin, a rich second-generation, couldn't hold back any longer. "What do you mean? We're here, and we can't leave? Are you trying to illegally detain us?"

"I've never been afraid of anything. I'm a member of the Xue family. Go and ask around. Don't do anything foolish."

Something was clearly wrong here. Now that the door was open, Xue Lin naturally planned to take this opportunity to leave. He didn't think he needed the butler's permission. After saying those words, he hurriedly rushed outside.

Wei Qingrong actually wanted to go with them, but as an experienced person, when he saw the butler's cold smile, his feet seemed to be rooted to the spot, and he couldn't move no matter what.

Seeing that he didn't move, Feng Yu, who was standing next to him, also stood still and waited.

A-Zhou acted like a college student with no real social experience, and was momentarily filled with anxiety.

The two new players who had just entered, Lan Fangxue and Bai Han, looked completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

Just then, Xue Lin had already gone to the door, but instead of disappearing from everyone's sight as expected, he cried out in terror and ran back quickly, his face instantly covered in cold sweat, showing that he was greatly frightened.

"What kind of hell is this place?" Xue Lin gasped for breath, his legs weak as he leaned against the wall, his eyes filled with terror.

At this moment, the director also showed the audience what Xue Lin had seen.

[Holy crap, this is a bottomless abyss, shrouded in black mist, with pairs of wild beast eyes peering out from within. Who wouldn't go weak in the knees standing here?]

[Just for these special effects alone, it's worth the long wait.]

Wow, will these scenes appear in the game of the same name?

[Of course it will be! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste to put in so much effort just for a variety show? Let's look forward to it.]

"Does anyone else want to leave?" the butler asked patiently.

Azhen and the others had different expressions, but their gazes finally settled on Xue Lin, silently asking him what had happened.

However, Xue Lin seemed to have broken down emotionally, shouting, "This place is not right, we can't go back, we can't go back at all. The outside is not the way we came from, it's a bottomless abyss. I also saw... I also saw many pairs of eyes in those black mists, like hungry wolves. If we fall in, we will definitely be devoured."

Xue Lin's words exploded like oil in a pan. Everyone was terrified, but couldn't help checking to see what was happening. When they saw that the scene was pretty much as Xue Lin had described, they all panicked.

The butler stood leisurely to the side, waiting for everyone to calm down.

After an unknown amount of time, the group finally calmed down. They stood together and isolated the butler, as if doing so would make them feel safer.

"It seems you've all accepted reality. Actually, I meant you no harm," he said.

“You can indeed get what you want here, but you will have to pay a price.”

“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come,” Xue Lin said. “I have plenty of food and drink. Even if I wanted to prove myself, there was no need to risk coming here. Let me out. Do you need money? My family has plenty of money.”

The butler simply smiled and did not answer Xue Lin's question. Instead, he continued, "Welcome to the Infinite Flow World. As long as you survive to the end and successfully find the treasure, you will obtain what you desire."

"The premise is that you find the treasure while you're alive."

"So, is it a challenge?" Azhen, who was playing a college student, was naturally familiar with terms like "infinite flow" and asked.

The butler gave him an approving look: "Not bad, it's a challenge."

"What if we fail?" A-Zhou asked.

The butler replied, "Then you'll stay here forever and become a part of this place."

"Turn into a monster?" Azhen asked again.

The butler laughed: "Yes, it seems Miss Fu is familiar with this."

Azhen replied, "That's how it's written in novels."

"Is it really impossible to quit?" Feng Yu asked.

“We didn’t do this voluntarily; you’re forcing us,” Wei Qingrong said.

Xue Lin chimed in, "Yes, we never agreed to it; it's illegal."

"Heh, it's all about unlimited flow now, who cares about laws and regulations anymore? You adults are so naive." It was Lan Fangxue who spoke, her face showing a rebellious yet curious expression.

Bai Han said, "It's definitely impossible for them to let us out. Why don't we give it a try? Fortune favors the bold."

What roles do these two play?

[It seems these two are quite curious about the infinite flow world and want to give it a try.]

[Xuexue's character is clearly a rebellious teenager, and definitely in her adolescence. It's obvious, cough cough, I used to be like that.]

[The character played by Bai Han has a subtle sense of death about him, as if he's on the verge of despair and hope. How would you describe it?]

[Doesn't this resemble a character who's unhappy with their life and desperately hopes to suddenly turn their life around so that no one dares to underestimate them?]

That's really true.

As the audience engaged in a lively discussion, the host's narration appeared in the live broadcast studio. (End of Chapter)
