Earth Federation 2113

Eighth Time Zone: Beiyang Land

Tenkyo Province

As night gradually falls, Xuanwu City, as the center of Tianjing Province, has long been clothed with a layer of colorful neon lights, and the high-rise buildings are like lighthouses, illuminating Xuanwu City at night.

Rustle – rustle rustle – rustle rustle –

The sound of brakes broke the quiet night, and black vehicles swarmed out from various streets, collectively surrounding a towering commercial building.

"Quick! Fast! Fast!!! ”

"That person is on the roof of the building, and he has been instructed to catch him alive, and he must not be killed!"

A group of black-clothed people got out of the car, and the man in sunglasses who took the lead spoke in a hurried tone, eager to rush to the roof of the building immediately, catch the traitor to earn credit, and the other black-clothed people saw this, and immediately rushed out and rushed into the commercial building in front of them.

Around their waists, a black rifle handle thing hangs...........

At the same time, the rooftops of commercial buildings

A black-haired young man with a delicate face and a well-proportioned figure stood quietly on the edge of the rooftop, looking at the huge movement below, and sighed imperceptibly:

"Finally, they found out."

Squeak!

The rooftop gate behind the young man was pushed open, and a blonde girl with a beautiful face stepped out of the shadows with heavy steps—

"Blank, you have no way to escape, quickly hand over the 'Holy Pattern'!"

"You're finally here."

The black-haired youth turned his head and stared at the colleague in front of him, his dark eyes reflecting the other party and the small pistol she was holding.

"Mu Yeyan, your intelligence ability is really amazing."

When the blonde girl heard the other party's name, she couldn't help but tremble, and instantly calmed down again, looked at the other party with complicated eyes, and softened her tone: "Ye Kong, hurry up and hand over the 'holy pattern' in the game, I don't want to hurt you." ”

"Is there any difference between handing over and not handing?"

"Even if I hand it over, Mirror Blossom won't allow me to exist, right?"

Mu Yeyan couldn't help but stagnate: "Ye Kong, I'll help you intercede with the president..........."

This time, Mu Yeyan didn't call the other party's game ID, but directly called out her real name, just like the other party called her name, the same call to each other, the last time happened three years ago.

"You know better than me what kind of character the president is."

Ye Kong shook his head and turned his head to look down, a large number of black cars blocked the nearby area, and ordinary people did not enter at all, let alone know what was going on.

This is the strongest guild in the eighth time zone, Mirror Flower Water Moon, and it has terrifying power—a real power that can destroy ordinary people.

It is now the year 2113 of the Earth Federation, the sixth year of the open beta of the game "Demonland", known as the second human world, "Demonland", which has long become the world's largest economic industry, and has also given birth to a large number of business legends and super chaebols.

At least 60 of the top 100 richest people on the Fox rich list are engaged in industry investments related to "Demonland".

As the strongest guild in the eighth time zone, the real power of Jinghua Shuiyue is unimaginably huge for ordinary people, and the president of Jinghua Shuiyue is known for his ruthless and brutal temperament.

Therefore, Ye Kong understood the other party's methods of dealing with 'traitors' - after all, he was once a core member of the "Mirror Flower Water Moon".

"There's no way he'll let me go."

When Mu Yeyan heard this, she immediately fell silent, but Ye Kong didn't give her a chance to speak, and turned her head to look at the bustling city night scene: "Time flies so fast, it's been six years since the open beta of "Demon Realm", and it's been almost four years since I entered the "Mirror Flower Water Moon", and next week will be the update day of the tenth expansion pack - "The Advent of the Sage". ”

"I really want to see what the legendary sage is like..........

Ye Kong's tone fell, causing Mu Yeyan's heart to skip a beat, and a sense of foreboding arose.

"No matter what, I'll help you intercede!"

Mu Yeyan shouted urgently, and a trace of anxiety appeared on her delicate and pretty face.

"It's useless, Mirror Flower Water Moon will not let go of a traitor."

Ye Kong shook his head, and relying on the body strengthened by the game, he heard the footsteps in the building, and it would only take ten seconds at most, and the executive staff of "Mirror Flower Water Moon" would rush to the rooftop.

"I can't believe that you will come to give me a ride in person, thank you, Nightsmoke."

Ye Kong smiled and waved his hand, and with a slight tiptoe, the whole person jumped off the rooftop.

"Don't !!"

Mu Yeyan snorted hurriedly and desperately rushed to the edge of the rooftop, but he couldn't catch the other party's body, so he could only watch the other party jump down from the sky like a butterfly.

Uproar——!

"Goodbye, this world."

Ye Kong felt the whistling sound in his ears, and his heart became quiet, suddenly, the wind blew his clothes, and a somewhat yellowed photo flew out, and he was about to fly away, but he was grabbed by a palm again.

Ye Kong pressed the photo to his chest and closed his eyes freely-

"This memory can't be lost."

It was a group photo of two people, and the young man in the photo was Ye Kong, but he was a few years younger, about seventeen or eighteen years old. And beside Ye Kong, there was a beautiful white-haired girl standing, reaching out to put her arms around his neck, looking very intimate.

"Shiro, I'm looking for you."

The whistling sound in my ears grew heavier and heavier, and finally turned into a loud noise

- Bang!

A bright and eye-catching red flower gradually blooms on the ground.........

.................

It's dark.

Ye Kong seemed to fall into darkness, his mind could not turn, only a cold touch, and the concept of time became blurred, as if a second had passed, and it seemed that several years had passed.

Suddenly, there was a glimmer of light in front of Ye Kong, and when he reached out to grab it, suddenly, the scene in front of him had color, and it began to condense again-

"What is this place?"

Ye Kong opened his eyes, his pupils gradually regained focus from a state of distraction, and the surrounding scene also came into view-

An ordinary hardboard bed, a slightly yellowed ceiling, and some old computer desks, and an LCD TV directly opposite the bed, make for a very familiar scene.

"This ...... This is the room in the Xingheng community? ”

Ye Kong was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, a large number of memories surged like a tide, allowing him to identify his own location:

"Impossible! The house in Xingheng Community, when I left Sheung Shui City, I sold it directly! ”

"Why am I here?"

Ye Kong shook his head, but found that the scene in front of him had not changed at all, and at the same time, in the LCD TV in front of him, a variety interview program was playing-

"Mr. Shen Yanxin, we know that tonight will be an important moment in history, that is, the day when the open beta of "Demon Realm" is open, I don't know, what do you think of this game?"

A hostess dressed quite nicely addressed a personable middle-aged man with her questions.

"Meng Die?!"

Ye Kong recognized the identity of the hostess, and what surprised him even more was that the middle-aged man next to him was none other than the smash hit 'Federation Celebrity' - Shen Yanxin!

"I remember that at the beginning of 2108, didn't Shen Yanxin be exposed to a fan sucking scandal, which led to a ban on the whole of Taiwan, and finally committed suicide by jumping off a building?!"

Ye Kong looked at the TV in a daze, the middle-aged man who was smiling and talking, as if he had seen a ghost, almost stared out his eyes!

However, Shen Yanxin on TV kept smiling and explained his opinion:

"I am very optimistic about the future of "Magic Realm", as we all know, today's human beings have entered the era of intelligence, factory-type manufacturing industry has adopted intelligent machinery, animal husbandry has also adopted intelligent mechanical management, a large number of low-level manpower has lost job opportunities, resulting in the whole society has become 'anxious'."

"Although the federal government has been scheduling, it is not a symptom of the problem, but fortunately, human wisdom can always solve the problem, the federal government has developed a new stealth technology, and produced the first game developed by the government - "Demon Land", committed to creating more jobs, and turning the entire video game into an economic industry that replaces manufacturing to ensure the stability of the whole society!"

After Shen Yanxin recounted a large number of truths, he finally concluded: "Therefore, with the strong support of the federal government, I believe that "Demon Realm" will become a second world for mankind, containing unparalleled commercial potential!" ”

At the end of his words, the audience immediately applauded on TV, but Ye Kong didn't care about this, because the interview on TV reminded him of a situation-

"Shen Yanxin's variety show interview, the concept of the second world proposed, the open beta days of "Demon Realm" .........."

"It's the year 2107 of the Earth Federation?!"

Ye Kong was suddenly startled, and immediately looked at the mirror on the bedside table, but saw that a young and immature face was reflected on the mirror, and he looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old!

"I ...... I'm reborn?! ”

Ye Kong touched his chin, his cheeks without any scum, and told him the truth of everything-

He's back six years ago!

The point in time when "Demon Land" is about to open beta!

"Wait a minute! If I go back to that time.........."

Ye Kong snorted, and immediately crawled out of bed, as soon as his feet hit the ground, there was a sense of vanity on his body, which was the inevitable characteristic of the otaku physique that has been lacking exercise for a long time.

Suddenly, Ye Kong's brows furrowed, and he said in his heart: "Sure enough, at this time, I haven't been strengthened by the spirit of "Demon Realm", and my body in reality is also weak............"

"This situation will improve a little bit when my spirit is integrated into the game and then fed back to my body!"

In the last life, Ye Kong dropped out of school and became an otaku at home for some reason, and before the open beta of "Demon Realm", he had been playing online games on the PC side (computer).

He didn't go out of the house all day, although his body did not become fat, but he inevitably became 'weak', and even went to the other extreme - he looked very thin, and his skin looked pale, like a sick seedling.

You must know that six years later, Ye Kong is a legendary swordsman in the eighth time zone, and his body in reality has received spiritual feedback, and with the physical exercise method developed by "Mirror Flower Water Moon", his physique has long been no less than that of some top athletes.

Now, Ye Kong unexpectedly returned to six years ago, and naturally he couldn't adapt to his original body.

"I don't have time to worry about this, I'll come back from the workout later."

Ye Kong shook his head, took a vain step, and walked to the door.

When he arrived at the door of the confinement room, he couldn't help but hesitate for a moment—

"If, she's really alive.........."

Ye Kong swallowed his saliva, his throat made a rough sound, stretched out a trembling right hand, and slowly grasped the doorknob, but he didn't dare to open it easily.

He was afraid it was a dream.

If it was a dream, Ye Kong would rather never wake up for the rest of his life, at least, he could retain a glimmer of hope - the hope of seeing her again.

If it was a dream, he would wake up after all, and the metallic touch on Ye Kong's hand and the chatter on the TV clearly reminded him that none of this was a dream.

Thankfully, it's all so real.

"Hoo ......"

Ye Kong took a deep breath and opened the door violently.

Squeak!

A living room appeared in front of me, the living room was a little dim, because the owner did not turn on the lights in order to save electricity, only the afterglow of the setting sun, through the interval of the window, shone on a table.

A petite figure, lying on the table, scribbling, she needs to finish all her homework before the evening, so that she can have time to cook dinner and work part-time at the convenience store in the evening.

After all, her brother is already 'decadent', and her parents died unexpectedly, so she has to take on all the responsibilities, including the daily expenses of the two.

"Really....... Really ........."

Ye Kong looked at the figure of the girl in the sunset, only to feel that his heart stopped beating, and an indescribable excitement surged, this is the person he owes the most in his life, but after the other party died of illness, he only recalled it in his dreams.

Right now, all this is so real, Ye Kong can see the other party's posture clearly, as well as the familiar snow-white long hair, which is completely consistent with the image in his memory, which is his nominal sister - Ye Bai.

"Whew....... It's done, huh? ”

The other party stretched his waist, turned around, and revealed a beautiful face, with a small face, big and watery eyes, cherry lips and a nose, and skin as white as snow, which looked particularly cute.

Although she is not very old, her appearance is only sixteen years old, but she has a wisp of elegance and peerless temperament, and over time, she will definitely be a red face.

This girl is Ye Bai, and she finally finished her homework.

"Brother, did you wake up so early?"

Ye Bai's face showed surprise, under normal circumstances, her brother was a 'late-night stayer', and it was impossible for him to get up until the moon appeared.

"Ahh I see, you must be hungry, right? ”

Ye Bai's beautiful eyes turned, and he immediately thought of the 'reason' why his brother woke up early, so he hurriedly got up and walked quickly to the kitchen: "Brother, wait a minute, I'll make dinner right away......... Yes! ”

Ye Kong didn't wait for the other party to finish, he directly hugged the other party and said the words that had been brewing for a long time-

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!!! ”

That's what Ye Kong has always wanted to say, he really owes his sister too much.

In his previous life, Ye Kong worked as an Internet waste for three years, relying on Ye Bai's convenience store to support him with a meager salary, and he was always indulged in the online world, until Ye Bai died of illness, he suddenly realized, but it was too late.

Ye Kong never had a chance to say 'I'm sorry' to the other party.

This is his lifelong heart disease.

"Huh?!"

Ye Bai was startled, the flush stained her cheeks, she didn't understand what was going on, she had always been used to obeying her brother, so she could only let Ye Kong hold her, and the two of them stood still as if they were petrified.

"Ah, sorry......."

Ye Kong finally reacted, the other party didn't know what was going on in the future, and he couldn't understand his behavior, I'm afraid that his performance was no different from a metamorphosis in the eyes of the other party.

"I ...... I didn't mean to........"

Ye Kong immediately let go of the other party and tried to explain his abnormal behavior.

However, Ye Bai didn't care: "Okay, I know that my brother has just woken up, and his brain is a little 'mushy', after all, my brother is an adolescent boy, and it is normal to have a 'sweet dream' occasionally." ”

Ye Bai waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care, obviously, she regarded Ye Kong's abnormal behavior as a phenomenon when the youth woke up.

"Brother, it seems that you must have had a 'good dream'."

Ye Bai squeezed her eyebrows for a while, the meaning of her words was very obvious, and then she turned around and walked to the kitchen and began to prepare today's dinner.

"Looks like I was misunderstood........

Ye Kong shook his head, but his mood was surprisingly good, now that he was reborn, he not only avoided death, but also saw the living Ye Bai, which was a scene he never dared to imagine.

However, as soon as Ye Kong thought of the future, his mood sank again-

"It's still a year and a half before her illness hits........."

"Brother, it's time to eat!"

Ye Bai put a plate of fried meat with green peppers and two bowls of rice on the table, the dishes were very simple, and even the only dish of fried meat with green peppers could not see many slices of meat, which could be said to be an extremely simple meal.

It can be seen that after the unexpected death of his parents, the Ye family's economic situation is not optimistic.

Ye Kong didn't care, sat down in a hurry, picked up the rice bowl and devoured it, startled Ye Bai's beautiful eyes for a while, and thought that he had encountered the reincarnation of a demon.

Although Ye Kong used to be a core member of "Mirror Flowers and Water Moon", he didn't know how much he had eaten, but what he always wanted to eat most was the food made by his sister.

"My brother is hungry like this........."

Ye Bai muttered in his heart, took the initiative to stretch out his chopsticks, picked up the only few pieces of meat, and put them into Ye Kong's bowl, and when Ye Kong reacted and wanted to clip it to Ye Bai, he saw that Ye Bai immediately protected the small bowl-

"Don't, don't, I'm losing weight that!"

Ye Bai's little head shook like a rattle, and he took the initiative to reject Ye Kong's move, but his eyes were aimed at the other party's bowl, in fact, the brother and sister usually can't eat any big meat, so what are they talking about losing weight?

What's more, Ye Bai's figure can be described as slender and slender, and there is no need to lose weight at all............

A quarter of an hour later

"I'm done."

Ye Bai swept the remaining green peppers, put down the empty bowl in his hand, and watched Ye Kong also put down the empty bowl, and couldn't help but show a successful smile, as if watching his brother eat enough is a very happy thing.

"Ah, it's almost 6 o'clock, and I have to go to Uncle Wang's convenience store to work."

Ye Bai cleaned up the dining table, immediately changed into casual clothes, and was about to go out and go to work at the "Lab convenience store" in the Xingheng community, but was stopped by Ye Kong-

"Sister, don't go to the convenience store to work."

"Huh?!"

Ye Bai was stunned for a moment, unable to understand what Ye Kong meant.

In this regard, Ye Kong took a deep breath, and said the excuse he had planned in his heart: "Sister, I recently found a job as a game studio on the Internet, and in the future, I will also be a professional gamer, and I can get a salary of 2,000 federal coins next month, which is enough for the daily expenses of the two of us." ”

"Now that the beta of "Demonland" is about to start, the game studio where I work will also be stationed in "Demonland", and we won't have to be so strapped when the next month's salary arrives."

This is Ye Kong's good excuse, in fact, he doesn't plan to go to the studio and let others squeeze labor in exchange for a pitiful salary.

On the contrary, Ye Kong plans to 'go it alone' and use his rebirth experience to earn wealth that others can't imagine.

In the previous life, as a legendary swordsman in the eighth time zone, a core member of the "Mirror Flower Water Moon", and a first-class professional player, Ye Kong's understanding of the future is better than anyone today.

The matter of rebirth is very important, and it must not be exposed, otherwise, Ye Bai thinks that he is mentally ill and sends him to a mental hospital for examination, then it will really be over - if the matter is exposed, he will become a sliced guinea pig.

Therefore, Ye Kong's use of 'game studio' as an excuse is an excellent choice.

"2,000 federal coins?!"

Ye Bai was stunned for a moment, because the working conditions reported by Ye Kong were too good, you know, this is the era of the Earth Federation, inflation basically does not exist, the purchasing power of the federal currency is very strong, and an adult breakfast is only the price of two federal coins.

2,000 federal coins, converted into the monetary unit of the last century, is about equivalent to the value of 4,500 Huaxia coins, which is definitely an unimaginable salary for a brother and sister of the Ye family who died and only relied on after-school work to make a living.

In the federal era, a full-time working adult (engaged in the grassroots service industry) had a monthly salary of about 1,500 federal dollars, and many people needed to work two jobs (one full-time job for 5 hours) to ensure their mortgage, children's tuition, social welfare and daily expenses.

Ye Bai's part-time job in a convenience store is only 1200 federal dollars, if it weren't for Uncle Wang's deep friendship with the Ye family's parents, a part-time job (three-hour system) would never get this salary, and thanks to Uncle Wang's help, Ye Bai could continue to go to school, otherwise, the Ye family brothers and sisters would not be able to pay the tuition fees for high school.

"So powerful?"

Ye Bai's beautiful eyes turned, as if she had guessed Ye Kong's thoughts,

The next moment, she stood on tiptoe, patted Ye Kong's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother, I knew that you had the ability, and you got such a good job, but you will have to marry a wife and have children in the future, and the cost of this will be a lot - you can keep this salary first, and the daily expenses will be handed over to me." ”

"But let you bear the ....... alone"

"Don't be so scheming between brothers and sisters! If you care, it's a big deal, you will raise me in the future. ”

Ye Bai waved his hand, his tone was very 'generous', but the corners of Ye Kong's eyes twitched, as a brother and sister who have been together for many years, Ye Kong still can't see it?

Ye Bai obviously didn't believe his words, but he was unwilling to brush his brother's face and dignity, so he intimately gave Ye Kong a step, so that he would not lose face and keep his brother's dignity.

This is Ye Bai's carefulness, and it is also her consistent style.

"Okay, in order to let my brother save more 'wife', I'm going to work!"

Ye Bai waved his hand, opened the door and was about to go out, but Ye Kong was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "I'll send you, it's not safe for you to walk at night as a girl........"

"Poof!"

Ye Bai immediately laughed, and saw that she pointed to Ye Kong's body, and then pointed at herself: "Brother, you didn't wake up, did you?" Have you forgotten that I won the first place in the "Karakutedo" competition for high school students in Sheung Shui City? Although I am far worse than those real masters, I still have no problem beating ten 'older brothers'. ”

Saying that, Ye Bai gestured his arm, quite a kind of 'I am strong' momentum, indeed, Ye Bai looks white and slender body, but he has a strength that ordinary boys can't match.

On the contrary, Ye Kong, as an otaku at this time, although he is as slender as Ye Bai, has a fragile physique........

This kind of look, not to mention protecting Ye Bai, letting Ye Bai protect him is almost the same.

"Oh no, I'm a 'cyber waste' now........."

Ye Kong's expression froze, he forgot that he was not the physique of his previous life.

"Okay, I have to rush to Uncle Wang's convenience store." Ye Bai didn't care, but she had some joy for Ye Kong's concern, and she waved her hand-

"By the way, I'll put the newly bought virtual helmet on your bedside table, and my brother should go to 'work'."

Bang!

The door was closed, and Ye Bai's footsteps could be vaguely heard, and he walked away with brisk steps..........
