Chapter 77: The Dragon Lifts Its Head
I have heard that in this world, there used to be a sea of stars in summer, and there was a blanket of silver in winter.
The water of the Raja River can be drunk.

In the dead of night on the central street of the city, a beam of light rushed into the sky, bursting like fireworks, and the blue barrier was getting bigger and bigger, as if it was a new blue sky - a blue sky without the sun, which was gradually enveloping the entire Qihe City.
To the east, after the bus terminal, you will reach the strange rockery in the rugged sea view.
To the west, we crossed the Lizhi Bridge to the edge of the field beyond the No. 3 High School.
To the south, past the suburban hospital, until you reach the Tongting steps at the foot of the rugged mountain.
To the north, past the Jackdaw Cemetery, until the round of the faint jade plate above the surface of the Luojiang River.

"Good morning audience friends, today is March 1, 2044 AD, and it is also the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the Dragon Head Festival, also known as the 'Spring Dragon Festival', is a traditional festival in our country...... What the? …… Blackout? But I'm just halfway through the planting here, don't we have a generator? …… What are you talking about? Qihe City is thousands of kilometers away from us, how can it be affected. ”
*
"Good morning, all the audience friends in Qihe City, I am the host Zhang Zheng."
"I'm the host Li Xin."
"Today is March 1, 2044, and the winter vacation of the student party is finally over."
"Zhang Zheng, listening to your tone, it seems that you are looking forward to the end of the students' winter vacation?"
"Of course, the children's start of school is undoubtedly a relief for us parents, take my family's little ancestor who is in the second year of junior high school as an example, during the Spring Festival, he does not accompany the whole family to play online games together, he has to shout to eat dumplings, saying that traditional festivals should be traditional, when do you say you can't eat dumplings? I have to spoil the harmonious atmosphere of the family on such a beautiful night Chinese New Year's Eve......"
Li Xin smiled according to the previously rehearsed process, interrupted Zhang Zheng, and said: "This is a normal phenomenon, almost every student in the second year of junior high school after learning modern history, will yearn for the traditional Spring Festival that appears in the books, and during the New Year, the whole family happily gathers around to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, in the words of the ancestors, this is called 'New Year's Flavor'." ”
"It's not just about eating, he's also going to watch the Spring Festival Gala, where can I find a show that has been off the air for so many years? I had no choice but to dig graves on the Internet, and finally found an issue of 2018 to show him. ”
"Zhang Zheng, I think that we, as parents, should guide our children in the right direction when they learn history, so as not to let them go astray. It is necessary to tell them the meaning of dross and teach them to move forward on the road they should advance in the new era, instead of choosing to spoil and find them a Spring Festival Gala video that should not continue to exist. ”
"You're right, in fact, even if technology has regressed, we shouldn't forget our roots, and I really miss the feeling of lying in the CLORIS-2 generation equipment when I was a child, and gathering in the game world with the whole family. It's a pity that now I'm back to the era of books, and I feel that the years when science and technology were the most developed were like a dream. ”
"Yes, don't forget your original intention, you have to always. I don't know if you remember, the new generation of CLORIS-3 produced in 2032 will be several times smaller in size and can be carried around. You said Zhang Zheng, if there had been no technological war in the world, what would the CLARIS equipment be like now? ”
"I remember the device, but I didn't have the money to buy it. It's like a helmet, and you can enter it by wearing it on your head, which is very convenient. I think it would have been much smaller if it hadn't been for that tech war. ”
Li Xin smiled mysteriously, took out a small box from under the table and opened it, "Zhang Zheng, what do you think this is?" ”
"This ...... Is it a smartwatch? ”
"Yes, but it's not your average smartwatch, and you can roughly guess it by name of it."
"What's the name?"
"You have to be prepared."
Zhang Zheng pretended to be anxious and said: "Li Xin, don't buy Guanzi, I and the audience and friends are going to be anxious to death by you." ”
"Okay." Li Xin looked at the camera and took the watch out of the box, "Audience friends, the name of this device is: CLORIS-NA." That's right, this is a new generation of CLORIS, as long as you bring your watch, you only need conscious control to enter and exit the game world, which is extremely convenient. Think about it, when you sit in the office and are tired of work, you just need to move a thought, you can go to the summer beach to lie down in the sun, how pleasant, not only that, but it can also ...... In short, only when you really enter that world experience can you appreciate its charm. Zhang Zheng, do you think that CLORIS-NA is only smaller in size than previous generations? ”
"Or else? By the way, which game do you need to tune into for that summer beach? ”
"Before I explain, let's get into the look of this device."

Bai Xin sat on the sofa and looked at the TV screen.
At school today, she was going to go to school by herself in the morning, but she didn't expect the TV screen to open and play this 'news' by herself, she thought that her brother was prompting her to watch this program, so she watched it very seriously......
"Little Ink...... That little box, I seem to have seen it somewhere. Bai Xin muttered, as if he suddenly thought of something, "That's right! On the bed table in Dad's room, the gift box ......."
*
"CLORIS-NA, there is only one game, and that is Dragon Quest - Undead MAX. Don't worry, although the name belongs to the RPG game of the bloody combat system, but in fact it is not more than that, I will sell it first, and the specific gameplay needs to be tried by everyone. ”
"But it's just a game, what if you get tired of playing it?"
"So what if you get tired of living in reality? CLORIS-NA brings you more than just a gaming experience, and I'm going to tell you about its other features......"

In the second half of the night on March 1, the blue [Sky Cage] covered the whole city with teeth and claws, and only those who couldn't sleep at night saw all this. They photographed bizarre landscapes, but they couldn't upload them to various platforms, and the network always showed abnormalities, and even mobile phones couldn't dial them.
The moment the train entered Qihe City, it was cut in half by the falling "blue sky", the people in front survived, and all the people in the second half entered the void space with inertia - among those undead who died tragically, none of them reached the death period on the list of deaths......
At 7:00 a.m., all the electronic devices connected to the network in Qihe City, those with screens play pictures, and those without screens play audio, and the voices of Zhang Zheng and Li Xin, the famous hosts of Qihe City, sounded neatly in every household.
The two of them rehearsed all night in the windowless drill room, and they always felt that this was an advertisement that deceived the audience with a clear conscience. However, the price offered by the merchant can not only make them clear of their conscience, even if they dig it out and feed it to the dogs, they are willing to - after all, conscience is a thing that cannot be exchanged for money.
Unbeknownst to them, the whole city of Qihe was watching the news broadcast by the two of them. And during this time period, all other cities within a radius of 1,000 kilometers were without power.

"Can't you get into other games too?" I tapped the helmet, "Damn, I just made contact with you. ”
"All the games are gone, oh my god...... Can't I eat chicken in the future? Oh Kei......" Yu Yu took off his helmet, and the expression on his face was loveless.
"Oh, what kind of dialect is Kei......"
"Mikassiu, is it because of the power outage?" Tong Wanqing said and took out her mobile phone, "The mobile phone still has a signal and network, otherwise use the mobile phone to log in to the game and try it." ”
Ye Zi hurriedly took out his mobile phone, "Really, the plot hasn't finished yet, it was suddenly disconnected, and the new equipment given by Mikas Xiu is too unstable." ”
"The main feature of the CLORIS-3 generation is that it is easy to carry, and the 2nd generation is a huge machine bed that people need to lie in to get in." Mikassi dragged his chin, "The 3rd generation does not need to be connected to the power supply, it has an infinite battery that can last for a hundred years, and the shell material can circulate and absorb charged particles in the air, which has absolutely nothing to do with power outages." The moment I retreated just now, it didn't pop up ......"
"The game is taken down." Li Muzi looked at the screen of his phone, and then Mikassiu said, "There is no game on the phone anymore." ”
"No...... All the games, gone. Su Yu's lips trembled, she had just experienced what it was like to use the CLORIS-3 generation to meet me, although it was in the game, she was really happy and excited.
Suddenly interrupted, the game was taken off the shelves.
All this is undoubtedly a blow to her.
Or, never.
Why, it gave hope and light, and suddenly extinguished it.
"Su Yu, don't be sad first, it may be that the location of the castle is relatively remote, and there are some abnormalities in the magnetic field, which leads to such a problem, we will all have a way, am I right Mikassiu?"
Mikasxiu was stunned for a moment, and said: "That's right, little master, it's indeed a magnetic field problem, it's all blamed for building the castle outside the city, although it's not too far, but after all, it's separated by a Luojiang River, and when the Luojiang River flows too fast, it will cause, uh, there is a problem with the magnetic field, so the game is off the shelves." I mean, let's look at the takedown, but actually, it's a magnetic field problem, so ...... Well, it's off the shelves. ”
"What, Mikassius? What's the game off the shelves and the magnetic field-ah! Li Muzi said halfway, and his back was twisted by Ye Zi fiercely.
Ye Zi pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "So that's the case!" Yes, didn't I talk about high school physics, you see I forgot about it, it's still Wanqing, right, Muzi? ”
"Right...... The negative effects of magnetic field instability in the second volume of physics, including this, I skipped class to play basketball that day, or did I almost fail the exam after the remedial homework......" Li Muzi scratched his head and said.
Ye Zi didn't speak, thinking in his heart: When did you pass the exam.
"That's why Ben Meow said, your broken world is really troublesome and boring." Galilo crossed her arms, "Master, I'll make you a bowl of roasted fairy grass to drink, right?" ”
Ye Zi didn't speak again, thinking in his heart: You will make a poop.
"I haven't slept all night, and it's not good to eat that kind of sweets directly, and everyone hasn't eaten breakfast yet. Mikassius, prepare for you. ”
"Yes, my sweet little master, what would you like to eat?"
"Red bean milk roasted fairy grass." Galilo said with a red face.
After Ye Zi's burning fairy grass fell to the ground yesterday, the cat's curiosity made her can't help but lick it secretly, so ...... The smell was unforgettable.
"Let's have meat buns." Li Muzi said with a big grin.
"I see you know how to eat buns in the morning." Ye Zi rolled his eyes, and said to Tong Wanqing again, "What do you want to eat?" I'm just like you. ”
"Fried Cold ......"
"Forget it, I'll eat meat buns too." Ye Zi interrupted Tong Wanqing's words.
"Noodles roll stinky tofu." Tong Wanqing finished the rest of the sentence.
"Okay, remember everything." Mikassiu looked at Su Yu with a smile, "What does the beauty want to eat?" ”
Su Yi sat on the bed, always looking at them, from forcibly explaining to changing the topic, she hated herself for knowing too much about acting......
Everyone looked at Su Yu, her tears flowed out of her eyes, but her face was smiling, "It's not like I haven't gone to school, the second volume of physics in the first year of high school, how can I talk about magnetic fields." ”
Ye Zi poked Li Muzi and scolded in a low voice: "It's all your fault!" ”
"Thank you." Su Yi smiled and wiped her tears, looked at Mikassiu, and said, "Give me a glass of milk oats, it needs to be hot." ”
