Chapter 289: My Lord, Times Have Changed
In the morning, inside Flushing's office.
Wang Jianzheng was drinking green tea while flipping through a book.
Since George?? Martin looks at his own work in order to find inspiration.
Then, Wang gradually will naturally read "A Song of Ice and Fire", in case the reporter interviews, he can tout it in a targeted manner.
This will not make others think that you disdain to read other people's.
He folded the physical book and set it aside.
Then click the mouse to enter the catalog of King Arthur.
"According to the progress, it's time for the protagonist's hole cards to be revealed. Wang gradually muttered to himself.
With almost the same number of words, in "Ice and Fire", the horse king is dead, and the heroine relies on the power of the dragon to stabilize the situation.
Then as the same type, the strength improvement brought by science and technology should also be revealed.
So, in his pen, the lord around Arthur, a baron who burns and loots, and has a good reputation, jumps out.
He pointed to the boundary monument that had been secretly moved recently, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Prince, this place has been our family's territory for generations, and there is a boundary monument as proof. β
"If you want to get this land, you can go to the king and apply for arbitration, or have a glorious duel!"
King Arbitrate?
Arthur rolled his eyes and complained inwardly, "The king has fallen into a coma, how can he care about this now?"
However, with such a wine bag and rice bag, he dares to have a glorious duel?
Arthur compared the strength of the two sides and his future plans, and nodded in agreement.
The baron smiled "hehe", threw out a white glove, and then instructed the guards around him to retreat and make way for the duel.
"Your Royal Highness," Merlin exhorted, "a small piece of territory, and when His Majesty wakes up, he will naturally take it back." β
"Master Merlin, I always have to grow up and face challenges on my own. Arthur pointed to the other side and said disdainfully: "Besides, there will be no danger in dealing with this kind of person." β
Merlin groaned, looked at the baron, and nodded reluctantly.
Then he commanded the prince's guards to retreat, leaving a large clearing of land.
Arthur took his sword and walked to the field, ready for a duel.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the duel began, the baron on the opposite side shook out a magic scroll, and then floated from the ground at a distance of three or four meters from the ground.
"Hehe," the baron's fat face showed a treacherous smile, "Duel is not just about dancing with swords, the equipment on your body is also part of your strength." β
Huh?
Arthur looked at the sky and suddenly felt that the natives were cunning enough.
The baron stared at the protagonist's dull expression, and his heart became more and more proud.
"A down-and-out prince, kill him, and I will be able to establish authority among the local nobility. β
"Maybe, you can climb the eldest prince and princess in the capital of God!"
While selling a bright future, he pulled out a few magic missile scrolls.
"My lord, don't be so old-fashioned, times have changed!"
"Iβ" Arthur heard this, and his heart was like a galloping horse.
"Hey, I was actually educated by the natives!"
However, fortunately, the baron was negligent in training, and the crosshairs of the magic missiles were rotten enough, and even if one or two missiles hit the protagonist, they would only knock the prince back a step or two.
"It doesn't matter," said the baron, shaking his fat flesh, "I'm in heaven, and he can't hit me, it's just a target." β
Arthur touched the black ash on his armor and shook his head helplessly.
"I wanted to try my knight's skills with this body, but it turned out... It is still necessary to use modern means. β
"Ha, the down-and-out prince shook his head, he had no way to take me. The baron floated in the air, even more smug.
But...
What was that little piece of metal in his hand?
Arthur calmly pulled away from the safety and aimed at the sky with his revolver, ignoring the magic missile that was 5 meters away from him.
"Your Excellency, Lord Baron, you are very right!"
He looked at the scrambled enemy in the air, and said with a smile.
With the sound of a "bump", the baron fell to the ground.
Arthur stood beside the baron and looked down at him.
"Times have indeed changed!"
"You... You are witchcraft, and I will report it to the Church!" the baron first shouted, then begging for mercy, "let me go, Your Highness. β
"I can swear allegiance to you!"
"Hehe, what I mean by the changed times is that I don't need any lords. β
"The people on the mainland are all my citizens," he gently pulled the trigger, "but it's only my citizens!"
After Wang gradually finished writing this paragraph, he checked it again.
After a moment, he took a sip of tea with satisfaction, "With the first appearance of technology, King Arthur has completed the first step of territorial expansion. β
He also expressed his political attitude. β
Wang gradually clicked the mouse and entered the comment area, wanting to see the readers' reactions.
Unexpectedly, readers who are already quick to start playing stalks.
"The teacher asked me to read those old-fashioned extracurricular books, I just want to say, the era of adults has changed, I want to watch the Internet!"
"My parents asked me to go to church, I just want to say, the times have changed, I just want to beat the priest to death!"
"George?? The third volume of Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" has not yet been published, I just want to say, the era of adults has changed, you should learn from the speed of the king's writing!"
This...
Why did you start whipping Martin again?
Wang gradually looked at the comments and laughed helplessly.
"Forget it, he doesn't care anyway. β
At this moment, Nokia's mobile phone rang.
Wang gradually picked up the phone and found that it was Wozniak.
"Wang, times have changed, it's so interesting. His excited voice came from the other end of the phone, "This is simply a true portrayal of the current situation in Silicon Valley!"
"If you like it, if you like. Wang gradually responded with a smile.
Although this big guy often does some inexplicable things, after all, people pay for each book.
"But, Wang," Voni's voice is like that of a child who can't get his favorite toy, "but in this work, the development of technology basically depends on women, which is not in line with reality." β
"In Silicon Valley, in addition to your partner Dorsey's girlfriend, are there any top female programmers?"
"Besides, you're going to Italy and publish women's publications, isn't that a bit too feminist?"
After a few moments, Wang gradually hung up the phone, with a crying and laughing expression on his face.
If there is one who is most opposed to feminists in words, it must be these nerds who are quite lacking in femininity.
But if it wasn't for the witches who developed productivity, it was King Arthur who led a group of shirtless brothers to climb technology...
That picture is too spicy for the eyes.
Actually, it doesn't matter. Wang gradually said to himself: "Although these people are more radical than anyone else, but after having a girlfriend, they have all become good babies." β
On the contrary, those men who champion women's rights, most of them are playboys, such as... Himself?
Thinking of this, Wang gradually hesitated and dialed Sarah's number.
In fact, in addition to promoting the new book, Wang gradually had another important purpose when he went to Italy.
Sarah's prison dilogy, which can't be written, should be the reason for the lack of accumulation.
He wants to take Sarah to visit the author of "My Genius Girlfriend" to help her out of her predicament.
"Hello, this is Sarah's residence, I'm not here for the time being, please leave a message. β
"If it's Wang, please contact Lily or Ms. Lynn, they know where I am. β
