Multiversal Livestreaming System : I Can Copy My Viewers Skills-Chapter 29: Solo Grinding
Chapter 29: Solo Grinding
Adam wiped the blood off his blade, his breath steadying as he surveyed the carnage.
Lesser orc bodies lay scattered around him, their weapons still clutched in stiffening fingers. The air was heavy with the coppery scent of blood.
"My leveling is getting slower..."
Adam muttered under his breath.
Just as he turned to leave...
Only to stop as a low growl echoed from deeper within the rocky outcrop.
Emerging from the shadows was a massive figure... a very large orc.
Its hulking body stood nearly two heads taller than the others, its muscles thick and corded beneath crude armor plates.
Jagged scars crossed its chest, and in its hand was a heavy, spiked club wrapped in iron bands.
The creature's red eyes locked onto Adam with murderous intent.
[Identified: Elite Orc (Level 16)]
The orc snarled, dragging its club along the stone, sparks scraping up from the surface.
Adam instinctively shifted his stance, feeling the tension build in his limbs.
'Level 16...'
Adam exhaled, flexing his fingers.
The orc roared and charged forward, swinging its massive club in a brutal arc.
Adam barely sidestepped the attack, feeling the wind whip past his face as the weapon smashed into the ground, splintering stone.
'Damn... That would've killed me.'
"[Temporary Copy]!"
Adam called out, activating his skill.
[Select Viewer Skill to Copy]
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!
Adam shifted his stance and rushed forward.
The elite orc swung down again, but Adam twisted his body, narrowly avoiding the strike.
As the club struck the ground, Adam darted in low, slashing his dagger across the orc's side.
A faint shimmer followed his strike, and an illusory blade mirrored his attack, cutting the same wound even deeper.
The orc howled in rage, staggering back as dark blood poured from its side.
[Experienced Old Knight has donated 20 coins]
[Experienced Old Knight] : Good good! Although it's a weaker version of my skill, you're using it nicely which doesn't bring me shame!
[5th Style Sword Master says it's a pretty basic sword technique]
[NLE_immortal agrees saying that it can't even one hit kill]
[Experienced Old Knight curses the both of you]
'Tough hide... I need more than just strength for this.'
"Copy another skill!"
Adam said.
[Select Viewer Skill to Copy]
Frog Eater.
[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: Acid Beam!]
[Reducing Acid Beam to its F-tier version...]
[Acid Beam has been reduced to Acidic Spray.]
[Temporary Copy] : Acidic Spray (30 Second Duration)
Adam's palm tingled as greenish energy gathered in his hand.
The elite orc lunged forward, its club smashing into a nearby tree, splintering wood and sending shards flying.
"Take this!"
Adam thrust his hand forward, releasing a cloud of burning acid.
The acidic spray splattered across the orc's chest and face.
The creature let out a loud roar, thrashing as smoke rose from its searing flesh.
The acid hissed and bubbled, eating through the orc's armor and scorching deep into its skin.
[Frog Eater has donated 5 coins]
[Frog Eater] : Look look! That's mine! Pretty awesome right?!
[Mads_1401] : Yeah... acidic pee is pretty cool I guess...
[Bird Hunter has donated 10 coins]
[Bird Hunter] : Streamer! Can you try to copy mine?! It's a lot more useful than what these fellows have!
[Prankster of Kingdoms is mocking you saying that the livestreamer isn't hunting birds.]
The orc staggered, but its bloodshot eyes never wavered. It charged again, wild with rage.
"Tch... stubborn thing."
Adam coughed, forcing himself back to his feet.
His blood control kicked in, accelerating his body's recovery.
His muscles tightened as he forced more blood to his limbs, pushing past the pain.
The orc's breathing was ragged, but its fury remained undiminished.
Adam clenched his burning dagger tightly, feeling the weapon's heat radiate against his palm.
"Got you..."
Adam muttered.
With a burst of speed, he dashed low, slicing the orc's Achilles tendon.
The creature bellowed in agony, toppling to one knee.
Adam didn't hesitate!

He immediately drove his burning dagger straight through the orc's throat.
The steel pierced deep, and the flames scorched the wound shut before blood could spill.
The orc let out a final, gurgling breath before collapsing.
[Elite Orc Defeated]
[+420 Exp, +0.1 Basic Soul Core.]
[+10 Gold]
[You have leveled up!]
[Level 8 → Level 9]
[Natural Magical Defenses have been slightly improved]
Adam stood over the corpse, breathing heavily.
His body ached, but victory felt satisfying.
The copied skills faded, his skin returning to normal and his dagger cooling in his hand.
"Not bad..."
Adam muttered, rolling his shoulder to ease the stiffness.
'However, I'll still definitely need to be at level 25 before I challenge this floor's boss..'
He wiped the blood from his blade, turned away from the corpse, and stepped deeper into the forest, ready to continue his hunt.
...
The first light of dawn crept over the horizon, casting a pale glow through the scattered trees.
The blood-soaked battlefield, littered with goblin corpses and the fallen elite orc, was silent.
Adam sat on a nearby rock, resting his aching muscles.
His clothes were stained, his arms throbbed with dull pain, and faint traces of smoke still rose from his scorched dagger.
"Finally..."
Adam muttered, feeling the tension in his body start to fade.
He reached into his pouch, pulled out a flask of water, and took a long drink.
The cool liquid soothed his dry throat and washed away the bitter taste of blood.
He leaned back, opening his system interface.

"Level 9... and 2.76 Soul Cores."
Adam closed his eyes for a moment, letting out a breath of relief.
"That's progress."
He flexed his fingers, feeling the improved control in his blood flow.
The Bloodforged Crystal's effects had clearly paid off.
His stamina had lasted longer, his reactions had sharpened, and his body felt stronger than before.
'At this rate... I should be able to reach level 25 soon.'
Adam thought.
'Once I hit that threshold... the Hobgoblin Chieftain is mine.'
