Chapter 11: In what era are we still competing in martial arts and weapons? Guns!
"The craftsmanship is not bad, young man, this is what you call eating. Ah..." Arthur wolfed down the bowl of noodles in front of him, his eyes almost popped out. He didn't know how to use chopsticks, and Ye Guanwu didn't have any Western ones at home.
Knife and fork, fortunately, noodles do not require the complicated action of "clipping". You can hold the bowl with one hand and use chopsticks with the other to pull it into your mouth.
"Eat slowly, aren't you afraid of being burned?" Ye Guanwu was somewhat surprised by his eating appearance, "How long has it been since you last eaten?"
"We also have a cook in the camp, but the food he cooks is really hard to evaluate." Arthur ate the clear soup noodles with a flurry of joy, and even drank the soup. He took the photo
He patted his belly and said, "Most of the time, I have to process the meat of the prey myself. We are all people who put our heads on our belts. It's okay if we have a stutter. I haven't tasted such 'exquisite' food in a long time."
”
He reached out for a cigarette out of habit, and even touched the cigarette case. Then he remembered his agreement with Ye Guanwu, and quietly put the cigarette case back into his backpack.
"Where are your parents?" Arthur asked, "Why don't they live with you?"
"My mother is a martial arts movie actor. She seems to be filming on an island right now. I don't know the details..." Ye Guanwu seemed to have just remembered that this thing was from 1899, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what an actor is?
What?"
"Like Maud Adams?"
"..." This time it was Ye Guanwu's turn to be confused. In order not to show his timidity, he could only nod his head and said vaguely, "It should be similar."
"That's good. Actors can earn a lot of money." Arthur looked at the decorations in the room, seeming a little jealous, and said, "What about your dad?"
"He... To be honest, I don't know what he does. It seems that my mother was chasing him. He often goes out and has no fixed job. He travels around the country and has no idea what he does for a living. He comes back all year round.
A few times, especially in recent years, I didn’t even come back for the Chinese New Year. At most, I only made a phone call home.”
"But..."
……
"Are you Daxia Ye's son?"
……
Mo Taifeng's face and voice appeared in his memories. Since he was now a partner with Arthur, he did not hide his secrets and told all his experiences in the banquet hall.
"Have you already fought against Berserker?" After eating and drinking, Arthur lay down directly on the sofa and said, "It looks like you are very strong. Berserker should be the most dangerous among us."
One of them, you can actually fight to a draw with him without a follower."
"It doesn't count." Ye Guanwu recalled all the details in the banquet hall, especially Mo Taifeng's meaningful announcement to him before leaving, and clenched his fists involuntarily, "That group of people, whether they are masters or servants, have no
Use your true skills against me. In Mo Taifeng's Kung Fu philosophy, there is no such thing as a 'tie', it's life or death."
"Haha, if you ask me, Berserker's master either has a brain problem or is possessed by a demon." Arthur laughed frivolously, put one hand behind his head, pulled out the revolver with the other, and hooked it with his fingers.
He held the trigger and rotated it on his finger skillfully, while saying, "Please, what era are we in now, and we still compete in martial arts? We compete with weapons and guns."
"In my time, duels were fought with guns. Now, your weapons will only become more advanced."
"That's right..."
However, in his memory, the scene of Mo Taifeng smashing a cup smoothly and scratching a person's throat with the fragments played repeatedly like slow motion, making him unforgettable. It was so understated, as if he flicked out a candle casually.
He had the intention to kill, and he could have killed Master Ma on the spot.
How can we say that such a person is not in danger?
"Forget it, let's talk about it later." Arthur waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry about himself anymore, "I can just sleep here."
"On the sofa?" Ye Guanwu looked at the width of the sofa, "Can I give you that blanket again?"
"It's alright, anyway, the night will pass quickly." Arthur took off his belt, which was equivalent to a small arsenal, and placed it on the coffee table. "If you encounter any situation, just shout and I will rush in to support you.
”
"I don't think anyone would come to my house so quickly, but I still thank you."
……
After much effort, he finally lay down on the bed. Ye Guanwu looked at the ceiling and let out a long breath.
Thinking on the bright side, at least, he won't have to worry about running out of things to do every night after that.
The exciting life that ordinary people have no chance of, just hit him on the head. A seven-to-one battle royale where desires and wishes are gambled and all means are used. According to Arthur, his life may even be in danger.
It all depends on how much other Masters desire their wishes, as well as their own moral values.
For example, tonight's Mo Taifeng is completely unscrupulous in his behavior and is quite dangerous.
And...Master.
Judging from his reaction, he is undoubtedly aware of what is happening, and what role will he play in it? We have made an appointment to meet him at Ruoshui Pavilion tomorrow. Do you want to take Arthur with you then?
The more I think about it, the more questions I have.
"Holy Grail..." Ye Guanwu turned over and murmured, "In the final analysis, can all wishes really be realized? What if it is some outrageous wish, such as if I want to extinguish the sun or make the universe collapse, it will also
Can you help me achieve it?"
His peaceful life was disrupted, and it seemed that even his biological clock was out of whack. He turned over in bed several times without falling asleep, so he simply picked up his phone and started scrolling.
I don’t have much time to open that video website called bilingbiling on weekdays, and it has accumulated 99% of news.
I refreshed it casually and immediately pushed him the most popular live broadcast room.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"The most popular domestic virtual idol group in 2044, 'Five Souls', has its first group broadcast...what the hell is its name?"
Out of inexplicable curiosity, Ye Guanwu clicked in and was almost blinded by the gift effects that filled the screen.
"Many people are giving gifts."
However, what puzzled him was that although it said "Idol", the ones who appeared were not real people, but five virtual girls between animation and reality. On the stage at the moment was a slightly short girl with a cute style.
Dressed cartoon girl.
The screen is filled with "Holy Rain Meng" and the praying expression with hands clasped together, which looks both fanatical and a little scary.
————
"Okay, it's over!"
Qiantang, a studio somewhere in the south of the city, was still full of people and brightly lit. Before the girls had time to take off their thick motion capture suits, they were called to the team leader because the connection was disconnected.
, the five virtual girls on the big screen also lost the ability to move, and just stood there without any expression, like five tethered puppets.
"Today's live broadcast data far exceeded expectations, and the number of viewers willing to pay is greater than expected. After analysis, we believe that there is still greater potential to be developed in this market."
"The data has been passed on, and the news I heard is... this group broadcast, the head office 'TWM', which is the [Three Sages], decided to increase the investment capital in this project. With our
The project serves as a carrier to study the latest V-wear technology and at the same time expand its popularity in the youth market."
At this moment, it was already 11:30, almost late at night, and the girls looked a little tired. However, when they heard the news and heard that their project had a long-term future, their eyes shone with light.
"Thanks to Luo Qi for withstanding the pressure of public opinion in the first two weeks... In short, this is a good start."
"That's it for today. There will be a celebratory supper later, so I'll treat you to it!"
……
"Huh..." Luo Qi, the actor of "Yu Meng", was not very happy because of this praise. She just let out a long breath and felt relieved.
"Leader, I'm a little tired... I'll go back first." She took off her motion capture suit and started packing her backpack.
"Are you leaving now?" The girl with twin ponytails, one of the five soul groups, asked in confusion, "It's only half past eleven."
Luo Qi waved to her tiredly and said with a smile, "I'm really tired."
