Multiversal Livestreaming System : I Can Copy My Viewers Skills-Chapter 18: Confused Viewers

Elara and the others froze for a second.

The orcs were attacking each other... why?

They didn't have time to think.

Adam had already charged in!

He moved fast, weaving through the chaos while keeping the War Goblin Flute in his mouth.

A sharp, ear-piercing whistle continued to ring out.

The orcs were still disoriented, but some were starting to recover.

Adam didn't give them the chance.

He focused on the ones already wounded by their own kind.

His blade cut into a lesser orc's exposed back.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

Another orc staggered nearby, holding its bleeding shoulder.

Adam kicked its knee in and slashed its throat before it could react.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

The constant whistling was exhausting.

His lungs burned, and his jaw ached, but he didn't stop.

The moment the flute's sound faded, the orcs would turn their aggression back on him.

A sharp movement from his side sounded as an orc lunged at him.

It had recovered faster than the others, its eyes filled with rage.

Adam barely ducked under its swing, but another came from behind him.

He twisted his body, barely avoiding the blow.

'They're adapting...'

The orcs weren't stupid.

Their senses were sharp, and they were already learning to fight despite the noise.

Suddenly, he felt something wrong behind him.

A corpse?

His instincts screamed.

Adam activated [Quick Avoidance].

His body moved on its own.

He leaped forward just as a heavy axe slammed down where he had been.

One of the orcs were faking themselves to be a "corpse".

[5th Style Sword Master] : Huh? That movement just now seemed similar to a basic swordsmanship movement I have...

Without hesitation, Adam spun around and activated [Body Blood Magic].

A sharp spike of hardened blood burst from his palm and pierced the orc's skull.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

Seeing Adam's killing spree, his team immediately began positioning themselves according to how Adam instructed them.

Elara moved swiftly, her [Shadow Step] letting her slip between the orcs without being seen.

A dagger flashed, cutting an orc's throat before it could react.

Another turned to face her, but she disappeared into the darkness, reappearing behind it to stab deep into its spine.

Then, a loud crack sounded in the air.

Rei charged in, his fist coated in hardened stone.

He smashed it into an orc's chest, sending the massive creature flying.

The orc hit the ground hard, ribs shattered.

Before it could recover, Rei stomped down, crushing its skull.

Nathaniel wasn't far behind.

From a distance, he raised his bow.

His eyes glowed faintly while [Keen Sight] was activating.

He locked onto an orc about to swing at Adam.

[Wind Arrow.]

A sharp gust howled as an arrow shot through the air.

It struck the orc's temple with pinpoint accuracy.

The creature staggered, dead before it hit the ground.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

Adam finally let himself breathe as he tossed the Goblin War Flute towards Nathaniel.

"Don't stop blowing on it!"

He said. Nathaniel nodded and did exactly as he was instructed to.

Adam then turned his gaze towards his system notification

[Experienced Old Knight is applauding the team's cooperation]

[NLE_Immortal has donated 15 coins]

[NLE_Immortal] : Keep it up!

[Bird Hunter] : How are these people doing this at level 2?

After taking a second to decide, he activated [Temporary Copy] once again.

This time, directed towards the Experienced Old Knight!

[Temporary Copy has been activated...]

[Due to low level and low rank, skill picking will be randomized...]

The system beeped again.

[Temporary Copy is successful!]

[Temporarily Copied: A Thousand Sword Strike!]

[Reducing A Thousand Strike to its F-tier version...]

[A Thousand Sword Strike has been reduced to Double Strike.]

[Temporary Copy] : Double Strike (30 Second Duration)

[Double Strike] : A single strike from your attacks brings an illusory attack that deals 50% of the damage you dealt!

'Good!'

Adam didn't waste a second.

As soon as the system confirmed the copied skill, he dashed forward, targeting the orcs that were trying to escape.

[Double Strike – Activated.]

A surge of energy rushed through his body.

He raised his hand, blood swirling around his fingers.

[Body Blood Magic.]

Crimson spikes burst from his palm, shooting toward the fleeing orcs.

The moment they pierced flesh—

A second set of spikes, barely visible and tinged with an eerie glow, followed right after!

One orc screeched as the first spike tore through its back.

It stumbled, only for the illusory spike to slam into the same wound, punching straight through its chest.

Blood splattered onto the ground as it collapsed.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

[Experienced Old Knight is bewildered]

[Experienced Old Knight] : Hey! That skill you used just now! Isn't that mine?!

Another orc turned, eyes wide with fear.

It barely had time to react before a spike impaled its leg.

It howled, falling to its knees... then the second strike came, this one going straight through its skull.

[Lesser Orc has been slain.]

[+45 Exp, +0.02 Basic Soul Core.]

[+0.5 Gold]

Adam grinned.

This skill was good...

More orcs tried to scatter, realizing they were outmatched.

But with Double Strike active, he wasn't letting them get far.

He sent another round of [Body Blood Magic] flying, watching as the illusory strikes followed, doubling the carnage.

[You have leveled up!]

[Level 2 → 3]

[Mana Capacity has been increased accordingly]

Adam exhaled sharply, feeling the lingering tension in his muscles.

The battlefield was quiet now, aside from the occasional groan of a dying orc.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and glanced at the system notifications.

Unlike video games where you could assign stat points however you wanted, leveling in the Tower of Yxthar was different.

Your stats improved automatically, based on your existence, codename, and personalized ability.

'It'd be nice if I could adjust my own stats...'

Adam thought to himself.

Right now, his biggest issue was stamina.

As a mage, keeping distance was key, but enemies kept forcing him into close combat.

More stamina would help counter that.

"H-How are we doing this...?"

Nathaniel muttered, his voice shaky.

He stared at the fallen orcs, some still twitching as their bodies failed to accept death.

His grip tightened on his bow as if unsure of himself.

Adam turned to him.

"What were your test score evaluations before this?"

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Nathaniel blinked, caught off guard by the question.

"I—uh. Got High Evaluation on all of them... except Psychological Stability."

Adam nodded.

That made sense.

Despite his sharpshooting, Nathaniel was clearly the type to be rattled and shook easily...

"What about you two?"

Adam glanced at Rei and Elara.

Rei scratched the back of his head before answering.

"I got an Average evaluation in Awakened Ability Assessment and Psychological Stability... but my Combat Proficiency and Knowledge Proficiency were High Evaluation."

Elara, who had been quietly wiping blood off her daggers, finally spoke up.

"All of my evaluations were Average."

She smiled softly.

"But my Combat Proficiency was the Highest Evaluation."

Adam raised an eyebrow. "Highest?"

Elara simply nodded, sheathing her daggers with a practiced motion. "Fighting has always come naturally to me."
