Chapter 211: Unable to Evolve
The news of Lu Wu's live stream to reveal the secret of the Boneless Wild Pig had garnered significant attention.
After all, this was no small matter.
From the current situation, it was evident that Lu Wu was destined to be the losing party.
His five-day delay and Jiangbei's profits from the Boneless Wild Pig Broth in the past five days made the situation clear.
So, Lu Wu's so-called explanation and live stream were destined to be a public execution.
The outcome was obvious, with only a few possibilities.
Either he would postpone again, or he would continue to claim that Jiangbei plagiarized his Optimized Version of the Boneless Wild Pig Soup.
The best-case scenario would be for him to present another plan to prove his innocence.
Regardless of the situation, Lu Wu was destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame as a failure and even a plagiarist.
However, despite knowing the inevitable outcome, Lu Wu still started the live stream, and the audience was quite large.
People from Jiangbei, Jiangnan, and even many unrelated to Jiangbei and Jiangnan came to watch the spectacle.
Jiang Yuesheng even paused his work to watch his son's performance.
On the Jiangbei side, a well-endowed female was taking a bath while watching the live stream, and for the first time, she laid eyes on Lu Wu.
Upon seeing Lu Wu's disheveled appearance, she frowned slightly, seemingly displeased with his image.
But Lu Wu was oblivious to this.
He was busy with the live stream at that moment.
"Over here, little skeleton, come over here. Forget it, don't move around. Just put down your phone and let it do its thing."
As Lu Wu spoke, the viewers could see their perspective rising.
Soon after, a small, sneaky skeleton appeared in the frame.
This little guy hid behind Lu Wu, curiously watching the live stream, its eyes sparkling as if it had discovered a new continent.
Then, the viewers realized that Lu Wu's figure in the live stream was shrinking, while the skeleton's image was growing larger.
Before the viewers could react, Lu Wu flashed and instantly appeared next to the skeleton, slapping it on the head.
"Are you not paying attention to what I'm doing here?"
After swatting the skeleton, Lu Wu took out his phone.
"Let me borrow your phone for a moment. You can use mine for now. If you want to watch my live stream, just click here, then here, and finally here."
"Got it?"
"Okay, bye!"
After sending the skeleton away with his phone, Lu Wu turned to face the camera.
"Hello, everyone! I'm Lu Wu, also known as Angry Laughter. Welcome to my live stream. If you haven't followed me yet, please do so now. And for those generous big spenders out there, send some gifts my way!"
The viewers were left bewildered by this scene.
What was he doing?
Follow him? Gifts? Did he really think he was here to live stream?
What surprised the viewers even more was that someone actually sent gifts.
As soon as Lu Wu finished speaking, someone sent a hundred 500-yuan rockets.
Upon closer inspection, the sender's nickname was Jiangbei Breeding Center Jiangbei Wind! And with Jiangbei Wind's gift, a string of other gifts followed, all from users with Jiangbei-related names.
The viewers' expressions became filled with amusement.
So, this was a deliberate attempt to disrupt the show?
However, Lu Wu seemed completely unaware of the disruption and even expressed gratitude.
"Thank you, Jiangbei Wind, for the rocket. You're so generous!"
"Thank you, Shi Ying, for the yacht. You're even more generous!"
"Thank you, whoever from Jiangbei, for your gift. People from Jiangbei are so generous!"
"Thank you, Lu Wu, for the super rocket. Wait, isn't Lu Wu right here?"
Lu Wu paused in his gratitude, then quickly realized what was happening.
"Little Skeleton!!!
Did you secretly send me gifts?"
Lu Wu quickly snatched the skeleton's phone from the corner and grabbed the skeleton, questioning it: "How did you know my payment password?"
The skeleton looked innocent and wronged.
It wasn't the skeleton, the skeleton didn't do anything. Lu Wu paused, then took a closer look at the user named Lu Wu who had sent the gift. Upon opening the profile, he saw that the avatar was Tuan Tuan.
The case was solved right there.
"Dudu, are you so rich that you're burning money? You're sending gifts to me and even to yourself. Why not use this money to buy some ribs instead? No, I need to educate Dudu face-to-face and teach her the importance of frugality."
As he spoke, Lu Wu seemed ready to go and educate his silly wife.
The viewers were speechless.
Lu Wu, did you forget the purpose of today's live stream?
Fortunately, Lu Wu hadn't taken action yet when his phone rang.
It was Jiang Yuesheng, and he said only two words.
"Cut it out!"
After Jiang Yuesheng's words, Lu Wu calmed down and turned back to the viewers.
"Where were we? Oh, right, live stream to live stream! I started this live stream to explain why I postponed the last time."
Finally, it was beginning!
As Lu Wu finally got to the main topic, different people reacted in different ways.
In the Jiangnan region, especially those led by Zhang Wentao, everyone was anxiously awaiting for Lu Wu to prove his innocence.
On the other side, in Jiangbei, Lin Huai and Jiangbei Feng were eagerly anticipating a spectacle, hoping to witness Lu Wu's downfall and Jiangnan's embarrassment.
"It's a shame Lu Wu didn't turn on the chat messages," Jiangbei Feng lamented, slightly disappointed that he couldn't further provoke Lu Wu.
Lu Wu, however, could guess the current state of mind of those watching, especially those from Jiangbei.
They might be laughing now, but soon, tears would replace their smiles.
"The reason for the delay in my previous livestream was that I had a sudden idea before going live. I realized that by using Ironclad Cow Milk as the core material, I could further optimize the breeding program for Boneless Wild Pig Broth."
As Lu Wu spoke, Jiangbei Feng's lips curled upward.
"So, you've managed to enhance the Boneless Wild Pig Broth within five days? And you even saved 200 points worth of materials? Lu Wu is indeed a genius, but it's all for naught."
Even if Lu Wu had improved the program, what difference would it make?
Currently, Lu Wu was accused of plagiarism, and any optimized version he submitted would not pass the review process, let alone be sold.
Even if Lu Wu could prove his innocence, it would require going through a procedure. By the time he completed it, Jiangbei would have firmly grasped the production of Ironclad Cow Milk and further optimized their program.
In the end, Lu Wu would still be at a disadvantage.
Beside Jiangbei Feng, Lin Huai nodded in approval.
"This young man from Jiangbei is quite capable. It was his suggestion to focus on the Ironclad Cattle Herd, and it's proven to be a wise decision."
Just as they were reveling in their success, Lu Wu's words took a sharp turn.
"However, I've discovered a problem with this breeding program!
The issue lies in the use of Ironclad Cow Milk as the core material.
While it can indeed enhance the quality of Boneless Wild Pigs in a short period, it also causes certain problems. The most severe ones are threefold."
"Firstly, due to the properties of Ironclad Cow Milk, there's a conflicting effect with the Necromantic Attribute.
This means that while it can improve the quality of Boneless Wild Pigs, it also affects their skeletal structure, making the joints fragile after enhancement.
It might not be noticeable at first, but when subjected to shock attacks, the bones can easily shatter."
As Lu Wu revealed the first issue, the brows of those in Jiangbei who had purchased and used the Boneless Wild Pig Broth breeding program furrowed.
If what Lu Wu said was true, it would be a grave problem.
But Lu Wu wasn't finished yet, and he immediately followed up with the second point.
"Secondly, again due to the properties of Ironclad Cow Milk, using this program causes a reaction in Boneless Wild Pigs that gradually weakens their mastery of the Necromantic Attribute. It can weaken their skills by about one level."
The expressions of those listening grew even more grim.
Lu Wu then delivered the most devastating blow.
"Thirdly, and most importantly, I've found that because of Ironclad Cow Milk, Boneless Wild Pigs bred with this program cannot evolve into Ironbone Boars!"
The third point was brief but packed the most significant punch.
Upon hearing this, the breeders in Jiangbei who had used the breeding program were all in a state of panic.
They desperately wanted to know if Lu Wu was telling the truth.
However, with Lu Wu's livestream lacking interaction, they couldn't voice their concerns. What frustrated them even more was that after stating these three points, Lu Wu was about to end the livestream.
"Alright, I've basically covered everything I wanted to say in this livestream. This is the result of my tireless efforts over the past five days. Next, I'm going to teach my silly Dudu a lesson. Farewell, everyone."
After saying this, Lu Wu abruptly ended the livestream.
On Lu Wu's side, the livestream ended swiftly and decisively. But in Jiangbei, it caused an uproar.
"Quickly, go and verify what he just said!"
Lin Huai struggled to maintain his composure and immediately issued the order.
Even Jiangbei Feng, usually calm and collected, was flustered. He picked up his phone to contact the team responsible for optimizing the Boneless Wild Pig Broth program.
He desperately hoped that Lu Wu was lying.
But deep down, he knew that Lu Wu's words were likely 90% true.
And if Lu Wu was telling the truth, it would spell big trouble for Jiangbei, and even greater trouble for Lin Huai and Jiangbei Feng!
