The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits

"Huo Wei's Love" experienced a malfunction in the small virtual space, which, apart from causing some dissatisfaction among the interstellar public, did not provoke much of a reaction.

Everyone knew the real-life drama virtual base on the Waste Star was being used for the first time, so encountering some glitches was expected.

The interstellar public's memory is short, and there are just too many intriguing reality dramas. "Huo Wei's Love" attracted interest not only because of Huo Wei's enviable romance as the female lead but also due to the depiction of cultural customs in this unique era.

Although the ancient Mother Star people consumed food that was even inferior to what the lowest Exotic Beasts eat.

It turns out the Mother Star People's physiques were so weak that a mere cold could trigger the most severe consequences.

...

However, other dramas set against different backgrounds were also damn good, revenge themes, comeback stories, face-slapping scenarios... none were less compelling than the countryside style storyline of "Huo Wei's Love".

Even when the program team noticed the anomaly on Waste Star No.1, no one paid much attention. Such minor issues could typically be resolved by the control center at the main hub.

It wasn't until the interstellar audience found one after another of the dramas disappearing from their favorites, and then they couldn't find any real-life dramas on the broadcasting platform... someone finally realized there was a significant problem.

A blunder of such magnitude could not go unnoticed by the upper echelons of the program team.

The daily onslaught of inquiries alone was enough to make the program team frantic.

In each reality drama, apart from the leading role or dual lead roles, the other supporting roles were filled by interstellar citizens auditioning as actors.

The disconnection with the Waste Star left those watching as well as their friends and family restless, with no choice but to contact the program team orchestrating it all.

The program team also tried to find solutions, but what shocked and panicked them was that not only could they not contact the control center, but they also couldn't even pinpoint the coordinates of any Waste Star.

As a result, they were left helpless, not even understanding what had happened.

However, this situation persisted for only a brief half-month, after which the mysteriously vanished reality dramas began to reboot again.

All the interstellar citizens who had been following this incident swarmed into the viewing platform.

Yet the various reality shows they had saved changed their previous styles, becoming bizarre.

----------

Liu Li was an interstellar viewer obsessed with reality dramas.

He was a civilian from the N9210 Star Domain of Blue Star, identified by his black hair and yellow skin; he heard that people like him inherited their genes from a far-ancient Mother Star nation called Hua Country. Thus, when choosing reality dramas, he preferred those set against the ancient and near-ancient Hua Country backgrounds.

Thinking back to the recent "Huo Wei's Love" that he had been following, it still seemed somewhat watchable.

However, shortly after he started watching a segment, the platform malfunctioned, leading him to send multiple complaint communications to the program team.

Luckily, just as he was about to send the 103rd complaint, the platform's communication was restored.

The small viewing platform for "Huo Wei's Love" became accessible, albeit without the option to post comments.

Still, having something to watch was enough.

Recalling Huo Wei's delicate smile made Liu Li's heart flutter, sparking some envy for the actor playing Han Zixuan.

Nowadays women are so fierce; it's rare to find a tender and gentle girl like Huo Wei anymore.

Liu Li eagerly entered watching mode.

The screen in front of him flickered a few times, yet the scenes that unfolded were not what he expected.

Huo Wei, the female lead, was nowhere to be found, replaced by a chaotic scene.

The actors had gone crazy, brawling relentlessly over a little bit of food.

Liu Li backed out in shock and checked the reality drama's title again to confirm he hadn't entered the wrong viewing room.

Re-entering, the scene remained unchanged; interstellar actors who prided themselves as upper-class people acted like savages from a barbarian drama, fighting over food and clothing, vividly displaying humanity's inherent evil.

Liu Li felt absurdity under the circumstances and exited out again, switching to another reality drama.

If he remembered correctly, this reality drama was supposed to be a modern romance story.

But witnessing the female lead, who kicked the male lead, slapped the supporting male actor, and confronted friends and family with disdain like a mad beast, what in the world was happening?

Switching again, the high-IQ male lead was now plotting world destruction....

Switching again and again, finding the mental illness-stricken female lead preparing to kill.... ah, she had already acted, shockingly, she had butchered her own husband.

......

Liu Li felt his mind was deeply traumatized.

His thoughts aligned with most interstellar people, believing the protagonists of these reality dramas were merely lower-class people serving them, but when these lower-class individuals started killing, disbelief was inevitable.

They weren't targeting lower-class people like themselves but undercover ordinary interstellar actors.

Such a commotion couldn't be ignored by the program team, even if they wanted to play deaf.

All the evidence pointed to the fact that these individuals, used as experimental subjects, had begun to discover the true nature of their world, every bit of it a facade.

Those chosen for lead roles usually carried outstanding genes; at least after uncovering the world's essence, their intelligence was heightened.

This caused severe damage to those still trapped in virtual space.

The program team wanted to quickly stop everything but was powerless, only able to watch various tragedies unfold.

Those who freely manipulate others' lives will eventually be manipulated freely in return.

Su Li, like a deity, stood suspended in mid-air above the control center.

Red cowered fearfully in the corner, gazing up at the closed-eyed Huo Wei.

There was only one thought in his mind; she was definitely not Huo Wei.

No matter how Red felt, it did not affect Su Li's comprehension of the Time-Space Law.

What an unexpected delight, discovering that this control center still retained traces of time and space.

Even if it was just a stone fragment containing the Time-Space Law.

Su Li had asked Red, and he was clueless about this object; even those from the program team weren't aware, only having figured out some characteristics.

So they merged it into the control platform at this control center, harnessing its power to expand and modify various Waste Stars. This also served as rehearsal bases.

Su Li discovered that the time flow for each small scene was not identical.

Red was unable to move, then stood dumbfounded as he watched Su Li vanish from the control center.

In a blink, Su Li stood on a bustling and lively street.

The interstellar technology was truly impressive; the scenario was flawlessly replicated.

This was Waste Star No. 29, set in the near-ancient Mother Star modern backdrop within a commercial empire reality drama's virtual small space.
