Chapter 222: Are We Being Livestreamed the Whole Time?

Lin Yifan and these survivors know too little about this world.

They know nothing about natural disasters, nor about how to survive in this world.

Although there are humans in this world now, this time many other races have entered, and everyone knows that this group of survivors are also humans.

The humans of this world couldn't possibly be unaware of them; if they truly cared for these humans, they could at least have other races look after them even if they couldn't come themselves.

But in reality, there is none.

They did nothing, just watching them live and die on their own.

Then Lin Yifan's group of humans can no longer place any hope in them; they can only rely on themselves.

Therefore, we must seize the opportunity to develop quickly; otherwise, it will become even harder later.

It has to be said, clever people are never in short supply.

What Lin Yifan could think of, Hong Shaoqiang and Ruan Qingdan had also thought of; and although Su Xiao xi is the youngest, she exchanges physical stamina for mental power, so her intellect needs no further explanation.

The four exchanged a glance; without saying a word, they sprang into action the next second.

Ruan Qingdan and Su Xiao xi, relying on the fact that they and Airiliya are girls, immediately stepped forward and took her hand.

"Your Highness, you know so much! Unlike us, who know nothing, I'm still in the Initial Domain and already many people have died. If we remain this ignorant, I doubt many will survive when we reach the Intermediate Domain." Ruan Qingdan deliberately put on a worried look, sighing.

Su Xiao xi also immediately stepped forward, her face full of fear, and said:

"Yes! Princess, you're beautiful and kind-hearted; could you tell us how to survive in this world?"

"I lost my older brother, barely survived, and I still want to see more of this world. Even though life here is especially hard, I want to live a bit longer—I want to see why this broken world torments us living beings so much."

Although Airiliya is a princess, it's obvious she's rather simple‑minded; she didn't notice the little schemes of Su Xiao xi and Ruan Qingdan at all.

Instead, she felt a little embarrassed and spoke:

"Living in this world is hard for everyone; although I know a bit more than you, I'm actually powerless against its various disasters."

"But if you have anything you want to know, just ask me; since I consider you friends, I'll naturally help you."

Seeing this, Lin Yifan felt a bit embarrassed and bluntly said:

"Alright, you two stop playing the victim; Princess Airiliya sincerely wants to help us, so let's be sincere toward those who sincerely help us!"

Saying that, he turned to look at Airiliya and said seriously:

"Your Highness, we want to know what items are easy to obtain in the Initial Domain but hard to get in the Intermediate Domain, so we can develop well during this time and be prepared when we go to the Intermediate Domain."

"Also, our District is about to merge; although I hold this District's Boundary Stone, other districts might not be able to hold theirs, and if two districts become one, will we be affected by that Boundary Stone?"

"Oh wow! Turns out you two were just playing for sympathy!" Airiliya the princess immediately pouted, putting on an unhappy expression.

Ruan Qingdan and Su Xiao xi hurriedly said, "Sorry, sorry, we'll never do that again!"

"My dear sister, please forgive me quickly!"

Airiliya the princess obviously wasn't really angry; she waved her hand and said in a tsundere tone:

"Fine, I won't hold it against you!"

"But you have to treat me to a nice meal tonight, or I won't forgive you!"

Having said that, she sat on the nearby wooden bench, propping her chin.

"About the merger, it's actually quite normal—your Initial Domain will merge, and our Intermediate Domain will too."

"After the merger, there will be a main district and a sub‑district; the sub‑district's resource allocation will be weaker, and it will also be under the main district's jurisdiction."

"So after the merger, the sub‑district's Boundary Stone will disappear automatically, and each region will have one Boundary Stone in charge; as long as you ensure your district is the main one, the danger you worry about won't exist."

"The concept of sub‑districts, Lin Yifan and the others have played games with it, so they naturally understand."

"But whether we can become the main district—no one can guarantee that."

"Are you worried that your district might become a sub‑district?" Airiliya asked, seeing their expressions.

Lin Yifan nodded: "Yes, we really do have that worry."

"Then you don't need to worry about that." Airiliya shrugged and said calmly:

"I chose you because, although you're not ranked first among survivors in the Initial Domain—and not even in the top ten—"

"but the district you lead has the highest number of surviving survivors of any district, and you are the unique person willing to sacrifice part of your own interests to let more survivors live—that's why I chose you."

"The biggest factor in the merger is the number of survivors in the district, because resource refresh is based on survivor count; thus districts with more survivors get higher‑level resource refreshes."

"So you really don't need to worry—your district will definitely become the main district, not a sub‑district!"

"If that's the case, that's great!" Lin Yifan breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated a moment, then asked:

"By the way, you said earlier that all survivors in the Intermediate Domain have an interface display board, letting all Intermediate Domain survivors watch our… the survivors' struggle to survive—is that true?"

"If that's true, then we'd have no secrets at all!"

"That would mean we're being livestreamed; Lin Yifan, although his actions are conscience‑clear,"

"but he had always been a lone survivor, sometimes careless, not paying much attention to his image."

"For example, when relieving himself in the wild, he'd just find a bush or roadside for convenience, without bothering to seek shade."

"If it were really being livestreamed all the time, even his measurements wouldn't be a secret!"
