Chapter 1: Lost

Next Chapter

Lion Lake City, located in the middle of Pande, has ushered in another scorching summer. Today, however, the people here are not upset by the hot weather, but everyone is as enthusiastic as the hot weather, and their faces are full of joy and joy. Because today is the most lively day of the year in Lion Lake City, Athletic Day. Under the scorching sun, thousands of Lion Lake citizens are rushing towards the city's landmark, the Lion Lake Arena.

"Hey, have you heard of everything? The Phoenix Hotel is being chartered today! ”

"Huh?! Who is so powerful that he dares to charter the Phoenix Hotel on the day of the competition?! ”

"Hey, hey, hey! Be quiet! I heard that it was the Black Dragon Society... ”

"Black, Black Dragon Society?! You mean that Black Dragon Society in the Raven Kingdom?! ”

"That's right, I heard from the guys at the hotel!"

Strange to say, the whole Lion Lake City is extremely lively today, except for one place that is very deserted, the most luxurious hotel in Lion Lake City, the Phoenix Hotel. You must know that in previous years, on the day of the competition, the most famous hotels in the city were overcrowded and very lively, so this has become a major event that people in the local area are talking about today.

"Bastard! I'm going to go in and see who is so arrogant that he doesn't dare to let Uncle Ben in to drink! ”

"Hey, it's bad if you make a quiet noise and let the people inside hear it! Let's go to another store! I heard from the guys in the store that there were people from the Black Dragon Society sitting inside! The Black Dragon Club of the Raven Realm! ”

"Huh?! It's the Black Dragon Society that has taken this place?。。。 Then we can't afford to mess with it, let's go, let's go, it's a disappointment! ”

The two rich men who were invited out by the hotel guys, including a local marquis general, talked outside the Phoenix Hotel for a while, and then left in a hurry.

Not to mention that it is in the small Lion Lake City, looking at the entire Pande, but anyone who is a little self-aware, who dares to take the initiative to provoke the Black Dragon Society, a big gang with forces all over Pande. So when the people here heard that the Phoenix Hotel was chartered by the Black Dragon Society, no one dared to pick quarrels and provoke trouble anymore. And people are more afraid that the people of the Black Dragon Society will take the initiative to find their own trouble, so when the news is widely spread in Lion Lake City, many timid and afraid people will be frightened when they are about to pass by the Phoenix Hotel, and they can't wait to take a few more streets to stay away from this place.

This is also the abnormal scene of the Phoenix Hotel today.

Deserted and deserted, but the owners and guys of the hotel are more enthusiastic and hardworking than ever, and they call these Black Dragon Club VIPs thoughtful.

"Haha, boss, Pande is such a wonderful place, if nothing else, just these vivid, almost perfect stunners are enough for the brothers to lose their souls! It's a paradise for us men. In the VIP box in the Phoenix Hotel, a blonde man sat on the seat and laughed, and the man's hand was not idle while talking, and he kept stroking the beauty in his arms.

"yes, yes!" Several other people at the banquet chimed in, but the man at the main table and a young woman sitting next to him disagreed.

"Come on! Let's salute the boss together, thank the boss for his hospitality, and congratulate the boss on his promotion to vice president of Deep Blue! Seeing that the man sitting at the table did not seem to buy his words, the blonde man shrewdly poured a glass of wine for the man and called for the others to raise a glass together.

At his suggestion, the other people at the banquet also rushed to respond, stood up one after another, raised the wine in the glass very enthusiastically, and leaned over to wait for the man.

The man who was respectfully called the boss didn't look very old, he was only in his early twenties, but he was the real controller of the Black Dragon Society.

The man was dressed in a cream-white silk robe, a pair of white leather boots, and wore no ornaments other than a dagger with an ivory scabbard around his waist. Under the man's very flowing hair, there is a fair, smooth, angular and handsome face.

Seeing that everyone at the table was greeting him and getting up, the man slowly got up from his seat with a slight smile, raised his wine glass and clashed glasses with others one by one very politely, and then said softly: "You guys, did you once wag your tail at him like this?" ”

"Huh?!" The people at the table didn't expect that the man would suddenly change his face, and the scene became extremely embarrassing for a while.

"Oops, Boss, you're mistaken! We've all been with you all the time! The blonde man was the most clever, pretending to be greatly wronged, and said very aggrieved.

Of course, the others knew who the man in white was talking about, but they didn't have the guts of the blonde man. They didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, for fear of offending the man in white or the man in white by saying something they shouldn't say, after all, neither of these two people was something they could provoke.

"Look at your cowardice, guys, it's not the same time now, that guy is just a prisoner now, what's so scary!" The man in white suddenly widened his eyes, and his face, which was still elegant and easy-going, suddenly became gloomy, and he raised his voice, as if he was demonstrating to everyone, so he shouted loudly to the ceiling of the restaurant: "Li Qing! Li Qing。。。 Behold, what can I do if I call him by his first name?。。。 That person has been expelled from the house for five whole years, without the protection of the family, hmph, he is now just a pathetic prisoner, a poor worm, a shame on the Li family! ”

The man in white spoke like a madman, his voice became louder and louder, his cold face became more and more gloomy, and his eyes were full of hatred unscrupulously.

The man in white is named Li Bai, and he is the second son of the Li family in the imperial capital. In the eyes of the world, he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he had a prestigious family background that everyone envied. But the world will not understand the unequal treatment he has received from his family in the past 24 years. In the past, he hated the whole family's meticulous preference for his half-brother Li Qing, but he dared not speak out, so he could only disguise himself as a sensible and well-behaved child, and did his best to become the favorite of adults.

Over the years, Li Qing has remembered every humiliation he has made, and he only wants to double his dedication one day.

Now that the person he hated the most in the world had been expelled from his home and had become nothing, and he had become the most promising heir to the family, he could finally remove his disguise and release the resentment that had been suppressed in his heart for many years.

Speaking of Li Bai, we have to talk about the giant mountain behind him, the imperial capital Li family, the founder of Pande.

The Li family, the imperial capital, is the top chaebol in China today, the actual controller of Deep Blue, the world's largest technology group, and the second place in the global wealth list.

Five years ago, that is, the year his brother Li Qing was imprisoned, the Li family

Spent a huge amount of money to purchase a piece of land of nearly 100,000 square kilometers in a remote area of China, and cooperated with the local government to jointly develop and build.

By using the world's most advanced intelligent machinery, which is also independently developed and created by the family business, and with the unremitting work of 1 million Deep Blue third-generation intelligent robots, the prototype of Pande was officially completed three years ago.

Also in the past three years, the Li family has also focused on the development of the family industry in the field of AI artificial intelligence, which is more realistic. Li's almost crazy investment in this field has made a breakthrough in less than three years.

At the press conference two years ago, Wei Lan, as the chairman of Deep Blue and the son-in-law of Li Longxia, the patriarch of the Li family, officially announced that the fourth-generation AI artificial intelligence robot was successfully developed and officially rolled off the production line. This robot carries a new generation of deep blue biochips, which have almost the same degree of simulation as humans in thinking, reasoning, emotion, etc., and then integrate the bionic organisms of the third generation to achieve the similarity of artificial intelligence robots and humans.

A year ago, with the joint efforts of tens of thousands of senior engineers in Deep Blue, the super server designed and built for Pande was officially launched, and hundreds of millions of source codes injected the "soul" into Pande Continent.

After four years of hard work, Pande Continent was born and officially opened to the outside world.

In just one year since its opening, the Pander Continent has taken the world by storm, and countless players who are passionate about the Ancient Iron Age have poured into the Pande World. This year, Deep Blue attracted countless gold and became the world's largest technology group in one fell swoop, and the Li family has become one of the few super consortia in the world.

As soon as he thought of this, thinking that he might soon inherit such a "behemoth" and become the helmsman of the entire Li family, Li Bai's heart would be irrepressibly excited. This exuberance made his blood run through his body, and he began to laugh wildly, unbridledly.

"Hehe, in the future, I will be the heir of the family, and Li Qing will be disgraced by the family because of the stain on his body, and he will be abandoned by the family forever! One is heaven and the other is earth, what else will he fight with me!? Li Bai's smile gradually converged, slowly looked sideways, and looked at the young woman sitting next to him with a cold face for a while. Without warning at all, he suddenly pulled the woman over, drew his sword neatly, and stabbed the woman in the heart.

"Ahh The people who witnessed this sudden incident only exclaimed for a while, and then they didn't dare to speak again. The woman snorted in pain, a mouthful of thick blood spit out from the corner of her mouth, and she stared at him in disbelief with a pair of clear eyes, and her blood-stained hands tugged at Li Bai's clothes, and she didn't even have time to say a word, she slowly slipped to the ground.

"Look, the woman you love died in my hands again, hehe, her eyes are still so charming, Mo Xiaoyu, don't look at me like that, it's no wonder to me, who made you choose that person? You should pay for the choices you make。。。 Hehe, I'm really looking forward to it, the way you look when you meet, I think it's wonderful to think about it. After killing the simulated person he had carefully made according to Mo Xiaoyu's appearance again, Li Bai sneered and said a few words that no one else present could understand, and his face became more and more cloudy. Then, he calmly took off his bloodstained coat and threw it on the face of the dummy man he had killed, took out a white handkerchief and meticulously wiped the sword with many irregular serrations and strange shapes, exuding a bone-chilling sheath, returned to his seat, and reminded the others at the table in a deep voice, "Remember, I am the one worthy of your awe now, but if anyone is afraid, I will allow him to be out now." If you want to follow me, just remember one thing ... Let me trample that man under my feet, and never turn over! The dead young woman in the pool of blood had not yet been seen, her blood had not yet been drained, and the executioner, as if nothing had happened, raised his glass gracefully like a gentleman, and raised it lightly.

The reason why Pande is obsessed with countless experiencers is precisely because here, as long as you have enough money and enough strength, you are the master here. You can do whatever you want here and do whatever you want.

Here, the experiencer finds their true selves that have been lost deep within.

Maybe pure and good, maybe ugly and evil ...

---------------------------------- Dividing Line-------------------------------

Awakening as usual, Li Qing opened his eyes, only to find that he was not in a prison cell, but lying on the vast and desolate Gobi, surrounded by more than a hundred prisoners who were as confused as him. With all kinds of questions, Li Qing was as lost, flustered, and overwhelmed as the other prisoners, moving forward on this vast Gobi with no end in sight. I don't know where I'm going.

It wasn't until they met the first Pander Aborigines that they realized they were experiencing a nightmare from which they could not escape.

The aborigines were dressed in old and new clothes that they had never seen before, and those who delved into ancient history might know that this unknown continent was still in the iron civilization of thousands of years ago.

Unfortunately, this group of aborigines living in ancient civilizations did not show them a trace of kindness.

Li Qing and the others, who thought that they had found hope of returning home, would soon be able to leave this mysterious and trembling land, and they ran up to greet the group of strangely dressed aborigines, who never thought that they would be greeted by a hunt full of blood and killing.

The barbarians rushed at them, shouting, waving their weapons and shooting their "prey" with precision as they tried to flee for their lives. They surround the "prey" they catch as if they were hunting. In a panic, Li Qing and his companions scattered screaming. They ran and fled as hard as they could, but they couldn't get as fast as the arrows shot by the natives. There was no escape, and the lost people, who were already hungry and cold, finally chose to be tied up and resigned to their fate.

"Haha!" The aborigines cheered and celebrated around the group of "prey" they had caught, and then began to skillfully swing the rope nooses, tie the encircled "prey" one by one, tie them to their horses, and drag them to a nearby town.

After a day's and a night's trek, the caravan full of goods and slaves made its way into the nearby city of Lion Lake. Surrounded by the common people, the caravan stopped in the central square of the town, which was made of stone, and several hunters wearing swords drove Li Qing and the other prisoners one by one to the blood-stained, terrifying-looking high platform in the center of the square. Bound to stand on the filthy and smelly platform, they were terrified and forced to accept the eyes of the local people who came up as if they were examining commodities. Shoppers are selective, leaving those from advanced civilizations at a loss and, more importantly, incomprehensible to the act.

How can people be so vicious?

How can people live like this?

The aborigines simply ignored their heart-rending arguments, which were as meaningless to the aborigines as the barking of chickens and dogs.

As a result, some of them were sold for the price of a loaf of bread, and the frail and senile were given to customers as gifts for their "entertainment" at will. This unknown world has left indelible memories in the hearts of those who lived in the 30th century. Make them feel like they might be dead, and this is hell, the place where these sinful people should come when they die。。。。。。

In the dark corner of the cell, Li Qing, who was asleep, once again dreamed of the scene when he first came to Pande three months ago, and he woke up in a cold sweat all over his body. Every day in Pander felt so long, hard and hopeless, only the quiet and short night could give him a rest, but he was often awakened by nightmares. During this time, some of their prisoners died of exhaustion, and some of them were still walking dead. He was glad that he was still in good health, that he was not used as a gift, and that he was tortured and died tragically, and he hated being sold as garbage by slave owners, and he survived to this day.

Thankfully, no matter what mood Li Qing holds at this time, all this is about to end. As soon as the morning dawned, he would go to the arena with his companions and end it all with a tragic death.

And this is not a relief for him. He looked forward to an earlier dawn and an earlier awakening of the "dream".
