In the blink of an eye, it was already the seventh day and the fourth day of training these apprentices.
In the living room on the first floor, Bei Gaoyang removed all modern conveniences and restored it to the pure Canaanite style. The interior was dark, like a dark castle. Even in the daytime, candles were lit, and the apprentices more than once
He complained that this was a pretense of mystery, but Bei Gaoyang naturally had a deep intention in doing so.
For the fourth time, Ding Jian stood in front of the demonic mentor. He muttered a strangely pronounced syllable, threw a silver coin, and made corresponding casting gestures with his other hand. The coin flickered slightly on the way down.
Once, there were signs of being lit.
But unfortunately, he still failed. Even when the coin fell to the ground, the magic power showed no sign of lighting it up.
"What's the problem?"
Ding Jian was about to cry and did not hesitate to say: "It is impossible to 'output' the spell configuration at the first time..."
Bei Gaoyang nodded, "It's still a matter of proficiency, go down and practice more!"
"yes!"
He thought he had escaped this punishment, but then a ray of lightning struck him, causing him to convulse painfully, and the hair all over his body stood on end with electricity.
"Next!"
"You have visitors!"
Xiao Ai's clone, Xiao Qi, reminded him. Bei Gaoyang waved his hand and asked the apprentices in the back to wait. A completely transparent [Magic Servant] attracted Yu Qingdong and two people who looked familiar but could not name them.
"Chairman..."
"Well, are you done with your things?"
"Equipment production is now on track. It is expected that enough gaming helmets for the fourth test will be produced on March 12, four days later."
"So soon...how many days have I been back?"
"Today is the seventh day"
"Time flies so fast..."
Bei Gaoyang realized that the time to leave had come. Although this low-magic environment could extend the stay, it was not indefinite. Now the magic energy storage materials were being consumed every minute and every second, which was equivalent to burning every moment.
Huge amounts of money.
The demonic environment only solved the problem of 'water', and there was too little 'water', which was not enough for him to recover from one meditation. The longer he stayed, the shorter the time that this small pool could be maintained.
"You are here this time..."
Yu Qingdong said nothing and silently gave up his position to the person behind him.
This is a middle-aged man with a resolute face and deep nasolabial wrinkles. He is very direct when he comes up, and his tone cannot be said to be respectful. "Hello, I am Bao Shaojie, one of the leaders of Project Zero. My superior sent me to report to you.
Please ask a few questions."
"Please tell me!"
"What...strengths and techniques are you training these people to master?"
"magic!"
"...Is it magic in the usual sense?"
"Yes and no, there is a certain similarity."
"Then...what are the benefits of this kind of magic, what are the harms, and what kind of...prospects and future it may cause?"
Bei Gaoyang smiled and said: "Magic is very dangerous, but it depends on how the person who masters it uses it. Magic can also change and reshape the environment and rules, making things you are familiar with become unrecognizable..."
The middle-aged man was silent for a while and then asked: "Is the Canaan game also a magic? Or..."
"Canaan is also a magic. It uses magic to create a completely virtual world, which is what you understand as an online game."
"Canaan was created by your magic, right? It is virtual and does not exist?"
"Yes."
"What is your purpose for doing this?"
"Whether you believe it or not, I don't have any ill intentions towards you or the world."
The handsome young man next to the middle-aged man stepped forward and asked, "Everyone has a purpose for everything they do, right? Or is it inconvenient for you to tell us?"
"I can only say that I have some enemies, very powerful enemies, so I need helpers. One of the purposes of the Canaan game is to train a group of powerful masters of extraordinary power!"
"Didn't you just say that the Canaan game is virtual?"
"It's virtual, but some things gained in the virtual may also become real."
"For example...the improvement in the quality of the players?"
"right"
"You are suggesting that the professions and abilities in the game may one day appear in reality, right?"
"good"
"What you are doing now is to prepare for this day, right?"
Bei Gaoyang looked at the small building where he was, nodded and said with a smile: "That's understandable."
Yu Qingdong was frightened when he heard this. Why, why do you want me to hear this? Can you leave? Can you plug your ears?
A puppet-like CEO of Canaan Company has already suffered such a heavy blow. He really doesn't want to carry something heavier...
The experiences of these seven days made my nerves extremely tense. Every day in my dreams, a pair of omnipresent eyes stared at me!
I thought that the provocative behavior of the '10 helmets' would allow me to escape this huge whirlpool, but unexpectedly, it backfired. The superiors actually raised his confidentiality level.
What a fuck!
In the face of this level of secrecy, his wishes really didn't matter, and he had to go with the flow and couldn't help himself.
The living room was silent for a while.
"Thank you for your candor." The middle-aged man Bao Shaojie's expression softened a little and he said, "You just said that magic might change the environment and... the rules? Then could it bring about a huge plague or other disasters?
"
"No, ordinary people have almost no idea. You are in a magical environment. There should be ways and time to determine whether this is correct."
"...What is magic?"
The smile on Bei Gaoyang's face faded, he thought for a while and said cautiously: "Magic is also science."
"That is to say, there are rules to follow, and there are ways to achieve them repeatedly. It is a kind of unknown rules and phenomena that modern science has not yet touched upon, right?"
"...very good explanation, can be understood in this way"
"...Where are you from?"
"My hometown is Fuyuan, but it is another Fuyuan, an earth in parallel time and space. There is also a country very similar to China and a nation very similar to you. That is the place that haunts me.
…”
"As far as we know, you first appeared in the cotton spinning community in Fuyuan City. Is that your home address in another ordinary time and space?"
"Yes"
"Then you went to another place, a place where magic, magic exists?"
"Yes, that was really an unbearable experience."
"Thank you, we have finished asking our questions."
The middle-aged and young people looked at each other and bowed to Bei Gaoyang together, saying: "Please consider this place as your hometown. We welcome you back and wish our cooperation smooth."
"Have I passed the test?" Bei Gaoyang said with a smile, "How many weapons are aimed at here at this moment?"
"Please understand that this is a last resort measure. You know us well, but we know very little about you. In order to avoid the heavy losses that may be caused by misjudgment, we have to..."
"I know and understand."
"Then...we resign."
"goodbye"
As soon as the three of them reached the door, several apprentices rushed out and shouted for help...
"Young people don't know how to cherish it. What a great opportunity now? Learning a skill is no better than anything else!?" the middle-aged man reprimanded righteously!
"We have encountered coercion, threats and abuse, and our personal freedoms have been restricted..."
The young man said quickly: "Nonsense, why didn't I see it there?"
"I..." Several apprentices were dumbfounded. They didn't see it. How could you see it? Are you blind?
Yu Qingdong suddenly felt that this scene was particularly funny, and he coughed quickly to stop himself from laughing. Only then did the apprentices find him, and they immediately seemed to have found a savior, calling them Mr. Yu, Big Mouth Yu, Shushu Yu...
Yu Qingdong's face darkened, and he quickly told his two superiors, "Let's go quickly, don't disturb the normal teaching order here..."
After the three people left, Bei Gaoyang naturally took care of these guys. Under the turns of Dian Mang, these people realized their mistakes and swore that they would never do it again.
"Punishing you is not because of your behavior just now, but because you failed to correctly understand your situation, cannot distinguish between what is useful to you and what is not useful to you, and you still have illusions and luck that you should not have. And.
This is exactly a taboo for spell casters!"
Taking the opportunity to educate the apprentices, Bei Gaoyang waved his hand and told them to get out. He sat alone in the dark living room, recalling the meeting just now, and laughed silently.
He had long expected this day.
Almost a showdown!
That's right. In the past, he was just messing around in the game. Although there were players, the base was still small after all, and the risks and benefits were not proportional.
Things are different now. In the fourth test, there are hundreds of thousands of players and the same number of tourists. In addition, he has also extended his hands offline, and the risks are not comparable to before.
Bei Gaoyang has never underestimated the elites of this world. He believes that after they return, they will implement and maintain the current cooperative relationship after careful and comprehensive evaluation.
Of course, they didn't just believe what Bei Gaoyang said. This showdown actually didn't say anything. It was just a gesture, which could also be said to be a deeper trial than before.
Neither he nor the other party can give up on this cooperative relationship. No matter how great the risk is, it is still just speculation after all. The benefits are indeed tangible, tangible, and are still sweeping across like a tsunami.
——It's time to leave.
The fourth test is coming soon, and there are still a lot of things to do in setting up the fourth level of magic network. As for these apprentices, let them stay here and practice hard. What the future holds depends entirely on them.
Taking stock of what he had gained from this trip, Bei Gaoyang was basically satisfied. He originally planned to have some fun, but he forgot about it as soon as he discovered a good prospect who really had the qualifications to become a spell caster.
I can't do it next time. I finally came back. I should relax and unwind after work, so I can balance work and rest.
It is said that as soon as Yu Qingdong and the others walked out of the "colorful and transparent barrier", their expressions changed.
"Shh, let's talk about it when we get back!"
Sitting in the car with a lot of worries, the middle-aged man Bao Shaojie took out a piece of paper from his pocket, opened it and took a look at it, frowning.
The young man saw it and said, "Has he discovered it?"
Bao Shaojie asked: "What do you think?"
The young man shrugged his shoulders, "I thought nothing could be hidden from him. Being looked at by his eyes, I felt like his inner thoughts were read by him."
Bao Shaojie sighed, took out a lighter, lit the paper ball, put it in the car ashtray, and watched it turn into ashes.
"Um...you really don't care about them?" Yu Qingdong asked weakly.
"What does it matter? One is not hungry, the other is not cold, and the third is not injured. All of them are white, fat, and lively. I want to trade with them." This is the attitude of the young man.
Bao Shaojie also regrets, "I didn't understand the situation at the time, and the time was too tight, otherwise...well, it's too late to say anything now."
Yu Qingdong cursed in his stomach after hearing this, "What, you still want to arrange for one or two Mr. Dongguo to come in?"
When the car returned to the factory, Bao Shaojie and the young man got on a helicopter that had started up as soon as they got off the car. Yu Qingdong wanted to escape, but he was escorted aboard by two big soldiers.
Sitting in the helicopter with a grimace, looking at the nameless hill below me and the colorful transparent barrier covering the hill, I really couldn't help myself.
"I still have a lot of work..."
In the evening, Yu Dazui, who had been sitting in the dark room for more than two hours, quickly complained when he saw Bao Shaojie coming in.
"Yours!" Bao Shaojie threw a bag of things.
"What?" Yu Qingdong opened it and found that he had been recruited again. This time it was a brand new unit that he had never heard of. There was also a special shoulder patch, as well as a series of secret documents that upgraded his authority level, military rank and commendations.
.
"Again!?" Yu Qingdong threw the things away, sat down, and said helplessly, "I'm just a businessman, an ordinary citizen. I was forced to get to this point. You didn't tell me at the beginning.
I understand... Otherwise, should I go back to Warwick Company? I think that kind of job is more suitable for me... Really, I am really not this material!"
"You are now at a higher level than me." Bao Shaojie seemed not to hear these complaints. He sat down leisurely, lit a cigarette, and threw one over without caring whether the other party smoked or not, "I want to convey to you
Let's show our superiors' spirit... After professional, careful and comprehensive evaluation, we have decided to keep the current established guidelines, policies, measures and support unchanged and let it take its course.
Judging from his words and deeds, it seems that this person can still cooperate. Although we cannot believe everything he said, we cannot believe everything he said. We think he still has some feelings for our country, people and history. From his first
From one appearance to the present, we have collected and analyzed all information about him and established a comprehensive analysis and evaluation model..."
Yu Qingdong listened to every sentence, thinking, this pirate ship seems to be in trouble, he should be more careful in the future, get less involved in everything, and he must take care of his mouth!
These are all fatal things...
"Director, news from Building Zero...he is leaving!"
Yu Qingdong thought to himself, this giant Buddha is finally leaving. Let's go back and get the fourth test. I have to run the Canaan game honestly. Isn't it better than anything else?
