Chapter 49 - Reasonable Function (1/2)
As he ran, Meng Fan would take a look at the live comments periodically. There weren’t many people, but the channel was heated.
Aside from the few words he spoke at the beginning, Meng Fan remained quiet.
One, because he was already heaving from running and had no breath to break his rhythm. Two, he realized that he should refrain from answering their questions, because in reality if he was running he shouldn’t be able to see their comments unless he could fake ‘holding his phone’ while running. That would be difficult, not to mention confusing.
Meng Fan had decided on streaming his run after he received the stream assistant. As the broadcast progressed, he began to consider some other details pertaining to his stream.
Sometimes, he had to pretend he couldn’t read the live comments. This was a crucial point he had to remember.
As for the size of the stream assistant, when nobody was around, he could shrink it to badge sized, but if people were present, it had to be at least medium-sized.
The medium size could pass for a GoPro type camera, one that had the stabilization function. As for why his camera, in particular, was smaller, higher quality, had incredible stability, high def, and unending battery life… He did not plan on going into that detail.
After all, with the advancement of modern technology, there have been more and more high functioning handheld or tilt stabilizers appearing on the market.
After adding a belt that was strapped to his chest—although it looked a bit silly—people thought it was a reasonable functioning device.
With so many extreme sports like surfing and parachuting being recorded appropriately, running wasn’t even on the same level.
Of course, the stabilizing feature and pixel definition could all be lowered, so it didn’t pose a big problem.
He then thought of the large form, the one sized like a drone, Meng Fan reminded himself that this kind of device could not be just ‘controlled’ with his brain in public. He had to dispel all thoughts of streaming himself from ‘god’s perspective’.
Unless he could free up his hands and took out his phone and pretend to control it from an app.
This kind of operation would definitely not work while he was running. Although it could work for other situations. After all, this kind of intelligent device couldn’t just be used for running.
As for its invisibility function, it couldn’t ever be used during a stream.
Unless he wanted to record something secretive, in which case the transparent function would be very useful.
As he was running, Meng Fan periodically checked the virtual interface, going over what else he should take note of, thinking about the possible flaws that could occur.
After all, he had read several web novels, and despite the thrill he got out of using his black magic equipment, he had to be a bit more prudent and cautious. His ‘presence’ was high and could easily be spotted by someone. It was unlikely he would be caught and sent to questioning, but it would stir up trouble nonetheless.
If anything threatened his life safety—especially after he had so painstakingly been reincarnated—and beaten into a “GG”, not only would the universe be disgusted, even he would be disgusted with himself for ruining such a good hand of cards!
“Ding! Great job! You’ve run 10 kilometers, elapsed time 1 hour 4 minutes and 13 seconds.”
After 10 kilometers of high intensity running, Meng Fan was virtually improving with every run. Now, his average speed had dropped to around 7 minutes and 25 seconds, and among those ten, 1to 2 of those kilometers could reach 7 minutes 20 seconds. The tough kilometers he maintained within 7 minutes and 30 seconds.
“He’s slowing down.”
“He stopped.”
“Is it finally over?”
“This has been the most boring stream I’ve ever watched!”
“You bunch are the most waste group of netizens I’ve ever met, hahaha!”
“This had to be at least an hour?”
“He can really run!”
“Although he’s slow… but damn, the man can run!”
“Hey host, how far have you run?”
“Did you not just hear the voice alert? 10 kilometers!”
“Everyone says the host is a fatty. I don’t believe it!”
“See see see, the pretty girl is here again!”
“The host is walking over!”
“Kakaka this girl looks so tough!”
