Chapter 363: Wang Yun Abandoned, Forsaken! Left to Die!

“Hello, this is Chuan City Emergency Center…”

“My big brother Wang Yun, send someone to save him now! He can’t hold on anymore!”

“Hello, this is Z City Rescue Center…”

“You need to save Wang Yun, hurry! Send a helicopter! He’s a hero, he can’t die!”

At this moment, phones across the entire city were buzzing non-stop.

It was 4:30 AM.

Countless lights illuminated the city. Almost everyone—men, women, young, and old—had woken up. Even students and workers who had early mornings ahead were gripping their phones, staring anxiously at their screens.

The entire internet collapsed.

All platforms crashed completely.

Weibo’s staff was forced to work overtime. Every single employee, even the higher-ups, had been jolted awake by the incessant ringing of their phones.

Weibo’s CEO issued a public statement, saying they were working to restore the system.

As for the live-streaming platform—its chat feed had become nothing but flashing lines of text, like endless streams of code. Even pausing the video wouldn’t stop the text from flooding the screen.

Everything was in chaos.

The executive producer received yet another call from the station chief.

Not just their own chief, every major TV station’s chief was calling. Celebrities were frantically reaching out. Countless superstars were trying to get updates, pulling every string they could.

Old Fang was overwhelmed—his phone was on the brink of crashing. Even he himself was barely holding together.

“Hurry and ask when will the firefighters arrive? Where is everyone?! Where’s the producer?! Get a helicopter over there for the rescue. Make an emergency landing. Crash-land if necessary! Cough, cough!” old Fang shouted, his voice trembling with urgency.

As soon as he finished speaking, his body wavered uncontrollably.

Liu Qingqing, standing beside him, immediately caught him.

“Old Fang, please don’t get too worked up. They’re already doing everything they can. Everyone is rushing over as fast as possible. You need to take care of yourself. Wang Yun will be fine. His physical endurance is far better than most.”

Liu Qingqing had no idea what else to say. She was just as anxious.

Old Fang leaned back in his chair, his face flushed.

At this hour, he was supposed to be resting. But ever since Wang Yun had set out for the rescue, he had been unable to sleep. His eyelid kept twitching. An ominous feeling that forced him to stay in the broadcast room.

The producer and staff had tried to persuade him to rest, but he refused.

They had no choice but to stay with him.

Liu Qingqing had initially planned to rest too, but she couldn’t leave Old Fang Lao alone—after all, they were partners.

So she had reluctantly stayed behind.

Never did she expect to witness such a horrifying scene.

“Hurry, get the helicopter there!”

Fang Lao weakly waved his hand.

The sleepless night, combined with his agitation, had pushed his aging body past its limits.

Liu Qingqing immediately nodded. “Don’t worry, the helicopter is already there!”

The moment she spoke, medical staff entered the broadcast room, preparing to examine old Fang. After all, Fang Lao was an influential figure—if something happened to him, the entire production team would be in trouble.

The live audience panicked upon seeing old Fang collapse. But what enraged them the most was that no one was helping Wang Yun.

On-screen, Wang Yun still lay motionless on the ground.

Meanwhile, the short-haired woman and her boyfriend had grabbed some branches, turning away to rescue their friends.

They had originally planned to flee, but the smoke was too thick.

They couldn’t see where to go, and they were afraid of getting hit by falling branches. So, they decided to help the remaining two people first.

With more people, they figured, they’d have a better chance of finding a way out.

And just like that they turned their backs on Wang Yun.

The entire world was watching. Their selfishness was broadcasted live for all to see.

News reports had often covered similar cases—

Extreme adventure groups getting stranded, only for rescuers to risk their lives for them. Yet, when those rescuers met danger, the very people they saved did nothing to help—some even abandoned them outright. Many rescuers had lost their lives this way.

Meanwhile, the ones they had saved continued living comfortably.

These stories were common.

People without conscience were common.

But this time everyone was witnessing it firsthand.

And because Wang Yun’s livestream was in first-person view, every single viewer felt as though they were the ones being abandoned.

The rage, the helplessness, the fury, the overwhelming urge to kill—all of it exploded in that moment.

“Put in more effort! Come on!” the short-haired woman shouted as she helped lift her friend.

Behind her, Wang Yun remained motionless.

[Ding!]

[Detected host’s life force weakening. System has automatically converted all shock points into adrenaline support!]

Just as everyone thought Wang Yun was about to die. Just as even Wang Yun himself believed it was the end. Just as he was completely abandoned—

A familiar voice suddenly rang out in his silent mind.
