Chapter 604: World collision theory
Chapter 604: World collision theory
Night, 10pm.
I had 92 Sword of Destructions in my bag. After a day of hard work, the Destroyers outside of Bright Moon Pass were cleared out. The quest interface indicated that I had killed 148 of them. It was too tough to find even one more so the quest was it.
I took out the City Return Scroll and headed back to Dragon Region.
“Shua!”
The teleportation light flashed across and I appeared on the Dragon Region square. Not far away, a human army was setting up camp. Xuanyuan Empire really was highly efficient. Only a short time passed and the ten thousand elites that they promised had arrived at Dragon Territory. From afar, they were mostly young strong men. Their eyes were filled with killing energy and one look and one knew that they were elites that had been through a hundred battles. At this moment, they were led by Lin Mu. Facing this general whose body was covered in death energy but was really strong, these soldiers yielded to him. They had no choice!
……
I stepped into the Dragon Region Hall and Senior Sister was standing in front of a table covered with books. Lan Che was beside pointing things out, “Lady, the namelist is here, you are holding the resource list. Also, these are the horses and grain that Winter Sun City sent, don’t sign wrongly, there there…”
Senior Sister was about to collapse. She was used to fighting so when did she ever do such tasks.
I said solemnly, “Senior Sister, I am back.”
“Oh, is that so?”
She tossed the scroll and smiled, “As expected from my Junior Brother, come. Let me see the proof!”
“En.”
I waved and tossed out a bunch of Sword of Destructions. Instantly, Lan Che’s eyes lit up, “Wa— With these, we can create a bunch of swords…”
“Right.”
Senior Sister Yun smiled, “If not I wouldn’t have asked him to clear out those Destroyers.”
She walked forwards and smiled, “Junior Brother, well done. You even exceeded my expectations. Come, I will use my identity as head of Dragon Region to gift you this honor!”
“Ding!”
System Notification: Congratulations for completing the quest Hunt Destroyers (SS Grade), obtained rewards: 25% experience of the current level, Charm +2, Dragon Region points +6000, gold +800!
……
Not bad, another 6000 points. But I didn’t think much about the gold. Dragon Region was poor and it was at its poorest moment now. Although my Senior Sister was as strong as a Lord, she was even stronger than the weaker lords but she was still poor. The gold of each reward was so little that my heart hurt. I even wanted to reward her with some gold of my own.
After completing the quest, I went offline to rest.
When eating supper, I told Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan and Ruyi that I had to attend a forum. After which, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
……
Next morning, I woke up early.
After washing up, I wore casual wear and prepared to head out. I heard Lin Xi say, “You will take an hour to get to Shanghai, it is still early. Eat breakfast first, Shen Mingxuan and I have bought them back.”
“Oh, thank you—”
I went upstairs and as expected, pepper soup and dough fritters were ready for me. I wolves them down and wiped my hands. I smiled, “Level well, I might be back in the afternoon or latest at night.”
“En—”
Shen Mingxuan smiled, “Guys that don’t spend the night outside are good guys. But we can’t ask for much right Lin Xi?”
Lin Xi smiled, “I don’t understand!”
“…”
I went downstairs and after getting in the car, I fixed a GPS and drove quickly.
……
It was 9:30 when I arrived in Shanghai and I parked at the venue. I used the digital ticket to get upstairs. On the 10th floor, the meeting was about to begin. It was busier than I thought, there were even many reporters. When I went up, Jack came over. He had a tie and was wearing a creased shirt, he looked like an IT guy. His brown hair made him look energetic and he hugged me right away.
“Lu, long time no see!”
He spoke chinese and he learned when I was over there. He was my roommate, I learned good english while he learned chinese from me. Just that he had a slight Jiangsu accent.
“Long time no see!”
I laughed and slapped his back, “Where is my name tag?”
“Here!”
He took a VIP tag for me and smiled, “Come, the meeting is about to begin!”
“En, okay.”
……
I entered and the venue was really crowded, far from what Jack had mentioned. There looked like there would be over 100 people. When Jack and I sat in the third row, we looked around and saw someone familiar. It was Huang Yuan in a suit!
He was in the first row and beside him was Zhang Yi, Destiny’s Europe CEO. Why were they here?
I frowned and pointed forwards, “Jack, do you know them?”
“Nope.”
Jack shook his head, “Why, do you know them?”
“Nothing…”
I didn’t want to make things complicated in case I caused trouble for Jack. At that moment, Old Huang turned around and when he saw me, he was stunned. He then smiled and nodded at me. I frowned and didn’t react.
“Is there someone sitting here?”
A clear sweet voice spread from beside me and it was a real beauty. On her chest was a reporter tag and on it was ZGTV. Sun Fei Er, isn’t that… ZGTV Game channel’s host? One of the most famous hosts, she was also the signed host and reporter by Destiny Corporation.
“Nope.”
I shook my head so she sat beside me. When she saw me, she was confused and frowned but she didn’t say anything. When Jack and I continued to talk, she looked at me in confusion. After she looked over several times, I turned around, “Fei Er, what do you want to ask?”
She laughed, “So direct? Okay, I would like to ask… You are July Wildfire, Lu Li?”
“Yes.”
I was speechless and knew that she would recognise me. Fei Er spent her days on Illusionary Moon’s forums and it wasn’t a surprise that she recognised me. After all, apart from those few strongest players, I should be the most popular. Not only was I top three in most events, I gained many first kills. I was someone that everyone knew.
Fei Er was excited, “I didn’t expect… Didn’t expect. This was a scholarly forum and I actually met you. Haha, I wanted to find a chance to get an interview with you!”
“Interview…”
I smiled, “No need, there is nothing much to interview. I am low profile, you should be able to tell.”
Fei Er smiled, “Scoff, no one can reject me. Li Xiao Yao couldn’t, Fang Ge Que couldn’t. Lu Chen so you can’t either. Why not I treat you to a meal after, anything is fine, then we can go karaoke or something—”
I glanced at her, “Beauties won’t work on me, I know Li Xiao Yao and Fang Ge Que. But I don’t know who Lu Chen is.”
She licked her lips, “Don’t be so heartless, just spend some time and accept an interview. I can help write you into a legend. You are so handsome, you won’t reject me right?”
“Since you said such a key thing… Okay then, but let’s do it online. I am too busy and I can’t find time to drink coffee. Give me some questions, I will reply to them one by one.”
“En, okay. Add me on WeChat.”
“En, okay.”
……
After adding, Jack looked at me with a heartpained expression, “Lu you have changed. You said that you will spend your time on science, I didn’t expect… You to spend time to get girls now.”
I looked at him speechlessly, “Jack, you haven’t changed.”
He laughed.
Not long later, the forum began. The first was Jack’s teacher, a famous professor. The name of his thesis was World Collision Theory. When he started describing it, I was fully focused. Although I wasn’t so well read in this but I was able to understand everything he was describing. Especially when he talked about why the monsters were appearing, it was pretty much the same as the data that I searched using Stareye.
This theory might be real.
The World Collision was how two worlds were merging and in the end, both sides will coexist or will wipe out. After he talked about all this, some people panicked while some snickered and shook their heads. If this theory was real, our world might got towards extinction.
Everything in front of us would disappear so who could accept that?
I frowned but at that moment I saw Huang Yuan crossing his arms and smiling coldly. It was as if he had seen through everything. Did he know the truth? If not why would he have such an expression?
I had no idea.
