Live Streaming Food Stall… But in Dog-Blooded Novels – CH118

Chapter 118

In the Multiverse Livestream, all hosts currently challenging the Genius Baby: Three and a Half Years Old world found their screens frozen mid-scene.

Leaves caught mid-air in the wind, charcoal flames in the oven motionless, words left unspoken in throats.

A luminous panel unfolded before hundreds of millions of viewers:

[Genius Baby: Three and a Half Years Old world bug fix rate: 100%. Character arc completion for [Ye Qingquan]: 100%. New ending unlocked: “Ye Qingquan and Baby Share Roast Duck.” Current timeline will be overwritten.]

[Host [Jian Yunlan] is the first to clear Genius Baby: Three and a Half Years Old. His name shall be recorded in history.]

[Genius Baby: Three and a Half Years Old timeline unlocked. All residents of this world now have access to the Multiverse Livestream. Let us welcome them—]

“……”

The Genius Baby zone exploded.

In Little Boss Lan’s livestream, viewers who had followed since day one popped virtual champagne:

[Knew it was coming, but still can’t believe Little Lan actually cleared it…]

[The characters here feel so real, especially Ye Qingquan—full of living, breathing humanity (.). In other streams, he’s just a backdrop for cute baby hosts, but here? He’s truly seen.]

[Same. This stream made me realize how deeply Ye Qingquan loves his child, willing to do anything for their happiness.]

[Now that the zone’s cleared, no more challenges allowed, right?]

[Damn, the hardcore fans in this zone are gonna lose it.]

As predicted.

While Little Lan’s viewers celebrated, those who insisted Genius Baby should remain a “cute baby showcase” zone…

Received this news like a bolt from the blue.

Take Xiao Lu, for example.

From the start, Xiao Lu had dismissed this unconventional livestream—especially its host, who, despite having such an adorable face, refused to “perform” and instead turned their precious baby zone into some chaotic food stall mess.

His only comfort was that, despite the rising bug-fix rates, the stream’s popularity remained low. Surely, most zone viewers weren’t buying into this gimmick.

Once the challenge ended and that “Little Lan” host got booted, their zone would return to peaceful, wholesome baby-worshipping, right…?

Xiao Lu and his like-minded friends had been clinging to this hope.

Until the news broke: Little Boss Lan had cleared the Genius Baby world.

The sky was falling!!!

From the moment the announcement dropped, the private chat Xiao Lu had created with fellow critics of the “Little Boss Lan” stream exploded with nonstop messages:

[CLEARED??? HOW??? Someone like HIM cleared it???!!!]

[No way, impossible, fake news, rigged—someone report this to Cross-Dimensional Livestream for data manipulation!]

[So many adorable babies were still challenging! Let them keep going QAQ Now that the zone’s cleared, where will we find another perfect stage for cute baby content…?]

[I can’t take this. All I wanted was to quietly adore babies and heal from their cuteness. Now the zone’s GONE? Is there no justice? Demand a full investigation.]

[My favorite baby host was about to sing—didn’t even get a note out before the challenge ended. So unfair!]

Ever since Genius Baby became famous for launching child stars, no viewer had genuinely tuned in to watch bug fixes or story resolutions.

No one truly cared that the characters were trapped in endless cycles, replaying preset plotlines like broken records—wasn’t that just a little tragic?

To them, the Genius Baby world existed solely as a showcase for adorable toddlers.

If it had to be cleared someday, it should’ve been by an ultra-cute baby—

Not some random street vendor maniac!

The audience’s meltdown was undeniable.

Beyond Xiao Lu’s group chat, nearly every stream in the zone (except Little Boss Lan’s) flooded with outrage—demands for investigations, threats of mass complaints—all descending into chaos.

Amid the turmoil, viewers clung to one last lifeline:

[So what if he cleared it?]

[Agreed. Even with the clear, his stream only has 40K viewers—not even top three in the zone.]

Though the announcement drew some new viewers, “Happy Little Lan” plateaued at 40K concurrent users—

While the most popular baby host stream hit 60K.

That 20K gap was the audience’s protest: We reject this outcome!

Though the world was cleared and hosts were being recalled, the zone would remain open for ~30 minutes—a grace period for venting.

Watching the stream, Xiao Lu hatched a plan and typed:

“Let’s rally everyone to boost other hosts’ popularity and gifts, push Little Lan out of the top 10 trending list. We’ll show Multiverse Livestream we reject their verdict.”

“Those dogblood novel fans have countless zones—Genius Baby is ALL WE HAVE. We must protect our sanctuary!”

The group erupted in agreement:

[Yes! Current #1 is Xuanxuan—I’ve mobilized everyone to boost her.]

[I know a hacker who can inflate stats. Not ideal, but desperate times (sigh).]

[EVERYONE MOVE!]

[Progress! Little Lan’s stream just dropped to #5… faster, now #7!]

[It’s working—KEEP GOING!]

Xiao Lu watched the screen nervously.

Thanks to the collective efforts of the zone’s audience, just as he had hoped, that blue-hued livestream plummeted down the popularity rankings.

Despite clearing the challenge, it was now free-falling on the charts—an unprecedented humiliation in the entire dogblood novel community!

“If this keeps up, Multiverse Livestream will have to reconsider,” Xiao Lu thought optimistically. “They might even reverse the outcome and reopen the zone for challenges!”

Yet his optimism was short-lived.

Just as Happy Little Lan teetered at #9, about to drop out of the top 10 entirely—

A seismic shift occurred.

The viewer count in the top-right corner of Happy Little Lan’s stream, after lingering at 40K for a brief moment—

Skyrocketed.

40K, 50K, 60K, 100K…

In the blink of an eye, the number more than doubled—and kept climbing relentlessly. The sheer data volume overloaded the entire zone, causing lag.

Even its ranking on the overall popularity chart shot upward like lightning, trailing dazzling comeback effects.

The audience was stunned.

They’d poured their hearts (and even faked stats) into boosting the top baby host to 100K viewers.

So how had Happy Little Lan’s stream suddenly attracted over 100K, instantly leaping from #10 to #1?

Not even botting could be this blatant!!!

“H-how?!” Xiao Lu fell back onto his chair, trembling. “Fake numbers—must be fake! No way this many viewers—where are the comments—”

With a shaky hand, he clicked [Enable Comments].

The next second, his screen was obliterated by a tsunami of live comments and exploding gift effects:

[FINALLY found Streamer Jian’s channel!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! LOOK WHAT I DISCOVERED]

[Holy shit, no wonder we couldn’t find him in hundreds of dogblood worlds—he ended up HERE?? And got SHRUNK??]

[Only that Lan Boss could conquer a baby-worshipping zone like this.]

[Mini Jian is SO CUTE AAAAAAAAHHHH Lanlan!!! Do you understand the lethal charm of a tiny street vendor selling roast duck?? (teary) (hyperventilating) (nosebleed)]

[Offering fortunes for the full Genius Baby VOD…]

[I have it, hehe~ User [Yu Ming] gifted Rocket x100 to Streamer [Jian Yunlan]]

[Yu Ming, you—envy. User [Fu Changfeng] gifted Romantic Carnival x100 to Streamer [Jian Yunlan]]

[Damn, Ye Qingquan might be the luckiest protagonist ever—getting to be dad to a small three-year-old Jian!!]

[I ENVY YE QINGQUAN!!! User [Gu Xingzhou] gifted Rocket x100 to Streamer [Jian Yunlan]]

[EnvyEnvyEnvyEnvyEnvy!!!!!! User [Ning Sheng] gifted Starship x100 to Streamer [Jian Yunlan]]

[Calm down, fans—we get you missed Jian’s streams, but the system’s about to CRASH!!!]

Four days without Streamer Jian’s street food broadcasts had left his regulars with severe withdrawal.

—Never realized how much I needed this until it was gone!

They missed Jian.

His wontons, fried rice, spicy hotpot, fried chicken…

Now, having finally found his channel, their excitement erupted.

More and more longtime viewers flooded the Genius Baby zone, spamming comments and gifts like there was no tomorrow, pushing the metrics higher with each passing second.

Then, exactly ten minutes after Jian Yunlan cleared the world—

The entire Multiverse Livestream platform crashed.
