Chapter 1657: Talk About a Big Thing! (1/92)
In the illusory world, in the core area of the science and technology city, a magnificent castle is shrouded in the night.
The top of the spire reflects a thin and long beam of light, as if it is connected to the sky, spreading the barrier with no dead angles around it with this beam as the center, connecting the outer wall of the core area.
Below the castle is a magnificent night market, lively, prosperous, and never-ending, which is completely different from the dead silence shrouded in most areas of the slums.
This castle is where the legendary "that adult" lives.
The only main road leading to the castle was completely under martial law more than ten hours ago, and it is a main road that is dozens of miles long.
Every ten meters, there are mechanized cultivators guarding the hand, and there are countless firefly-sized micro-reconnaissance drones lingering in the sky.
They move around the castle in a regular manner, fully monitoring all abnormal movements around the castle.
In an astrology club called "Starry Sky", Li Xian and Zhang Ziqian successfully sneaked in here.
Yes.
Zhang Ziqian used his old skills again and stole two passes from the dignitaries in the core area, so that they could come here directly without any obstacles.
As the captain of the Eternal Powerful Team, Li Xian was naturally strongly opposed to the theft, but after Zhang Ziqian took action several times, he was forced to accept such a setting.
Even if he didn't accept it, Zhang Ziqian would use other methods to get what he wanted...
For example, the large deposit of 10 million gold gear coins they currently have was obtained by Zhang Ziqian.
His goal was very clear. As soon as he entered the core area, he immediately stole the "signal base station" installed near the core area, and then began to send fraudulent text messages in groups.
The specific content of the text message was also very simple.
He said that he was a closed disciple of "that adult". Because of a certain research, he had a bet agreement with "that adult" and was now raising research funds. He was confident that he could prove that his theory was completely correct. If the bet was successful, he would receive a bonus of 100 times the research funds. Once the bonus is in hand, a high amount will be returned to all research sponsors...
I don't know if it's because of stupid people with a lot of money.
Li Xian didn't expect that there are actually people who keep transferring money to Zhang Ziqian's new e-wallet...
In just less than a few hours, they raised a total of 10 million gold gear coins and came to the "Astrology Club" in front of them with "divination" as a gimmick.
The membership fee of this club is 100,000 gold gear coins per person per year, which is a fun for the rich and powerful.
After joining, in addition to being able to do a fortune divination once a day for free and a question divination once a week, there is also a monthly star blessing gathering to help absorb the universe's luck through divine power and get out of Africa and into Europe.
However, after evaluation, Li Xian and Zhang Ziqian both felt that they might be able to find out the clues they wanted in this place.
...
Just after paying the membership fee and entering the door, Li Xian and Zhang Ziqian heard the discussion at the next table.
"Have you heard? Black Dragon escaped and betrayed the commander. The authorities have just issued a mobilization order, offering a reward of 1 million gold gear coins."
"No wonder martial law is in place..."
"It's not necessarily because of Black Dragon. It is said that just a few hours ago, someone saw the Mechanical Guard carrying a coffin into the castle."
"I just heard it... There is no solid evidence. I still think it is related to Black Dragon's escape."
"So, who is the current commander of Black Dragon?"
"Zhu Yuanrun, who runs an underground boxing ring in the slums."
"It turned out to be him..."
"I think it's better not to join in the fun. The Black Dragon is extremely powerful. Even if we really see him, it's a question whether we can survive and report the news."
"That's the truth."
"It is said that the Black Dragon is the masterpiece of that adult, the first fully mechanized guard-type cultivator. This out-of-control incident almost killed the contracted commander in his hands. That adult must be furious."
The three dignitaries and a yellow-haired lady dressed as a witch held hands and discussed around a table. There was a crystal ball on the table.
Before doing astrological divination, the body and mind need to be completely relaxed.
Therefore, chatting about gossip and talking about small things before divination is often the best.
As we all know, the most stress-relieving way is actually to get together as a group of people and say bad things about outsiders together...
If you have experienced school dormitories, you must have a deep understanding of this.
The most outrageous example is that there are four people in a dormitory. Each of them will privately create three groups to pull two roommates that they think are okay, and then complain about the fourth annoying guy together. It's so real that it's scary.
Originally, several people were talking about the black dragon.
As a result, the topic suddenly turned to "that adult", and the witch in charge of divination immediately spoke out to control the situation.
This is not something they can discuss.
That adult is as good as a god, monitoring everything, and it is said that he can hear everything.
The witch is also very clear about this.
She also heard a rumor that the beam reflected by the spire above the castle, also known as the "Thinker", plays a role that is not just a barrier... At the same time, it can also play a monitoring role.
Although this is just a rumor, in order to avoid trouble, she still smiled and advised softly: "Gentlemen, don't discuss state affairs to avoid getting into trouble."
The three dignitaries nodded: "What Mrs. Melissa said is that we made a mistake."
"It doesn't matter. Then, the astrological divination will officially begin..."
The person named Melissa spoke quietly, and then began the following command process: "Please follow my instructions, first slowly close your eyes, completely empty your mind and thoughts, and imagine what the starry sky looks like in your mind. …Then, in your mind, ask the questions you want to ask.”
She mumbled something in her mouth.
The crystal ball on the table began to flicker with faint starlight after being silent for a few seconds.
Um? Actually...not a liar?
Li Xian observed for a long time. He thought that this kind of club was some kind of place for cheating rich people to pay, but he didn't expect that the "witch" in front of him actually knew something.
However, he definitely doesn’t understand.
Throughout the ages, he was a famous star wanderer.
Manipulate the stars, harness the stars, trigger star tribulations... All starry sky spells are omnipotent.
Of course, this "astrology" is also included.
About three full minutes passed.
The woman named Melissa gently let go of her hand: "Star Lord, I know your demands and have given you the answer."
Then, a girl in a maid outfit took out a quill from the side.
Melissa quickly wrote down the questions asked by the three people and the answers to the questions on three pieces of paper and handed them to the three people.
At this time, Li Xian saw Zhang Zipiao walking forward and looking like a thief, and immediately knew that this guy had itchy hands again.
"Brother Zi Tie, what are you doing..."
"Nothing to do, just take a look." Zhang Zitiao said through a message.
To be honest, if Li Xian hadn't stopped him, he might have really taken action on those three pieces of paper.
But now, it’s okay not to take it.
Because of his vicious eyes, he had already seen what was written on the paper.
He sent a message to Li Xian and said: "Of these three people, the first person asked is why everyone calls that lord, that lord. Instead of calling him by his real name directly."
Li Xian: "Why?"
Zhang Zipiao: "Because, that person's last name is Na, and his name is the taste of taste. After the name becomes smooth, he will become that adult."
Li Xian: "..."
Zhang Zipiao: "The second question is, if the Science and Technology City is destroyed one day, what will be the reason?"
Hearing this, Li Xian couldn't help but grin: "This question is quite interesting."
Zhang Zipiao: "The woman named Melissa answered that if the world were to be destroyed, the most likely cause would be that someone fell down and caused a big explosion."
Had a fall?
Li Xian was stunned...
Would a fall lead to the destruction of the world?
Even if a cultivator in the transformation stage occasionally falls on the ground, it will only leave a hole.
To the point of destroying the world, it would only happen if Wang Ling fell down...
"last question."
Zhang Zipiao continued: "The third person asked if there will be a second season of The Daily Life of the Immortal King."
Li Xian smiled meaningfully: "So, is there?"
Zhang Zi nodded: "Yes. And, just today. At this moment, when everyone sees this chapter, Station B has already announced it."
