"Crossing?" Taro Sakamoto blinked his eyes, as if he understood, and his expression stiffened little by little.

Although when everyone is young, they will more or less yearn to wake up one day, or suddenly snap, travel to another world, and then appear on the stage of that era to become the protagonist of that era......

Especially in this era when all resources are monopolized by conglomerates, and most of the jobs are occupied by artificial intelligence, it is difficult for ordinary people to get ahead.

But...... Isn't all this to think about? Why did it happen all of a sudden? Li Yuan's heart was in turmoil. Besides, even if I crossed, didn't I cross alone? What's the matter with so many people, I'm still not the protagonist anymore?

"Can we go back?" At this time, Taro Sakamoto sat on the ground with a sad face: "I don't know what happened to me outside, my parents must be worried!" ”

"Well, that's what I'm worried about, too." Li Yuan is calmer than him, maybe this is because of his personal character.

I'm still taking the college entrance exam...... He secretly complained in his heart, but the matter has come to this point, and he doesn't know if he can still take the college entrance examination. In the Great Neon Country, this is also an opportunity for ordinary people to change their fate.

And just as everyone was talking to each other, trying to figure out what was going on, everything seemed to suddenly stand still.

The wind was no longer blowing, and the leaves on the side remained the same as when they were swaying, and they stopped there strangely, as if time had frozen at this moment.

"Hello, everyone, welcome to the Tian Yuan Continent!" At this time, a voice that seemed a little out of place and out of place sounded suddenly.

Li Yuan Huoran turned around.

"When we meet for the first time, I'm Brother Merlin, the founder of the game in the Tian Yuan Continent and the game administrator!"

'Mei ...... Merlin?! Li Yuan's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

In front of his eyes, in the sky above the town of Dom, pink petals flew in the sky, and a man with white hair, wearing a white mage robe with intricate patterns on it, and holding a wooden staff, appeared.

The man looked about twenty years old, handsome and abnormal, and his body should be enlarged proportionally, about ten meters tall.

That's right, it's Merlin! Li Yuan recognized it at a glance, when he went to visit the game headquarters of the Tian Yuan Continent, the top person in charge of the game of the Tian Yuan Continent had seen this image for him.

This can be regarded as the display of his image in the Tian Yuan Continent, according to reports, its prototype is the legendary court mage Merlin of King Arthur of Great Britain, but the key image creation is from the 21st century, a game called Destiny Night.

And now, the soul behind this image is the supreme person in charge of the game in the Tian Yuan Continent.

But this is not what shocked Li Yuan, what shocked him the most was that the day before the open beta of this game in Tianyuan Continent, wasn't it rumored that he was dead?

No...... This is not a legend, but a fact! If a news report is fake, is it possible that there are 10 or 20 reports, and there can still be a fake?

Among them, there are several media that represent the façade of the consortium, and the company that designed the game of Tian Yuan Continent has also proved that at this time, and held a mourning party for him,

Besides, even if there is a mistake, how can there be no news after more than a month?

But what about now? In the age of the 'spirit', after this image is fixed, it is impossible for anyone else to use it unless it is the person.

While Li Yuan was shocked, someone below was already shouting and asking what happened to Merlin.

"Humph! Do you ask me what happened? That Merlin still maintained a somewhat unserious appearance, revealing a relaxed smile: "As everyone knows, I summoned everyone to the Tianyuan Continent without authorization!" ”

"What are you kidding?!"

"This can't be!!"

"My VR machines are all at home, how can you ......"

……

Below, there were doubts one after another.

Similarly, at this time, Li Yuan's brain was also blank, summoning without authorization? How is this possible? If such a thing can be done, wouldn't that be ......

"Everyone thinks it's impossible, but it's not hard for me to do it!" Merlin's tone was still as relaxed and pleasant as ever, but in Li Yuan's ears, it was a different matter.

"Because, didn't you give up all your souls yourself?"

"What?!"

At this moment, the town blew up in an instant. Li Yuan opened his mouth and found the answer almost instantly, soul recognition! It's soul recognition!

'This man'......' he looked up and looked at the white, woman-like face in disbelief, 'holds the secret of soul identification!' Hold everyone's soul in your hands! ’

"This time, I invite everyone to come, just to give everyone a great opportunity to fully enter the game and play the role of the game, and please cherish it!"

"Don't give me nonsense, I'm going back!"

"Yes! I'm going back, I'm going to work, I can't afford to lose this job! ”

"I don't want to play games right now! How the hell should this be taken offline! ”

……

"Are you going back?" The corners of Merlin's mouth hooked again, and he smiled lightly: "I'm sorry to tell you, once this game is launched, it can't be ended or taken offline except for defeating the final boss hidden in the Tianyuan Continent!" ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone revealed a bit gloomy: "I can only keep playing!" ”

No! That's impossible! Li Yuan's pupils constricted.

At this time, there was another shouting and scolding below.

"But you don't have to worry, because the time flow ratio of this game is 1000:1 compared to the outside world, which means that a thousand years have passed in the game, and only one year has passed in the outside world." Merlin's tone returned to the same relaxed and cheerful way before:

"In addition, I have summoned not only everyone present, but the souls of all people who have entered the soul identification system in reality! So now the outside world has been in a major mess, right? ”

Li Yuan's heart shook fiercely.

But without waiting for him to think about it, Merlin had already continued: "Therefore, everyone present, enjoy this game, if it goes well, maybe after you defeat the boss and clear the level, it just feels as simple as a dream!" ”

"The only thing I have to warn you about is that, though!" Merlin's smile was put away and replaced with a seriousness that he had never had before, so that all the noise in the square of the whole town of Dom gradually fell silent, and he looked up at him in a daze.

"You are participating in this game of the etheric body of your soul. Well, you can understand it as the essence of the soul, and it is similar to the physical body in reality, but it will be more convenient, and the limits of all aspects of ability will be higher. ”

"But ......"

When the word Merlin came out, everyone was awe-inspiring.

"If you die, it means that your soul is destroyed, and the consequences of soul destruction, I don't think I need to explain it, right?"

As soon as the words fell, the entire Dom Town was silent for a moment, everyone stared at the figure in the sky in a daze, and Li Yuan even clearly heard the sound of himself swallowing saliva, which was constantly amplified and echoed in his mind.

"There is only one opportunity, please cherish it!"

Merlin said that, and the town of Dom rang out with hysterical cries and screams of chaos. Some people raise their heads and roar, some hug their heads and cry, some kneel, and some are depressed.

At this moment, Li Yuan's thick sense of horror also surged, so that his hands trembled slightly.

"Wouldn't it? It's a lie, it must be a lie......" Taro Sakamoto sat down on the ground with his butt and said.

Then, he raised his head again, looked at Li Yuan blankly, and asked in a trembling voice, "This is a lie, right?" This ......"

Li Yuan couldn't answer, although he couldn't believe it, but after experiencing that kind of novice training ground and talking with the top person in charge of the game, he knew that everything Merlin said should be true.

"Hmph, I know everyone must be freaking, so I've prepared a big gift package for each of you and give it to everyone! Please laugh and accept...... Yikes! I forgot, you're probably not going to be able to laugh now! Merlin patted his head, then raised the wooden staff in his hand, and muttered the words in his mouth.

When he had recited the incantation, he said, "Bah! With a sound, in an instant, a bright white light emanated from his wooden staff, obscuring everyone's vision.

Warm feeling, this is Li Yuan's first reaction.

Then, he 'saw' in the white light, as if a streamer flew towards him, and in a flash it disappeared into his palm.

Li Yuan's body shook, and there seemed to be an inexplicable power in the streamer, sweeping away all his originally chaotic thoughts and settling down.

Then, the white light disappeared, and everyone stared blankly at their palms, although everyone's faces were still dazed and helpless, but the crying and roaring had stopped.

Li Yuan's heart moved, and he opened the storage bag, and found that there was now an extra cloth robe and a wooden sword inside, and nothing had changed otherwise.

Huh? Li Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, this is the gift package that Merlin said? This Nima is too stingy, isn't he?

But at this time, Li Yuan's thoughts were interrupted by Lang Lang's laughter, and Li Yuan turned his head to look at the sound and found that it was a man with curly blonde hair, blue eyes, and a tall nose.

He had already changed into a robe, holding a short wooden staff in his hand, and looked about the same age as Li Yuan, but there was a pride and confidence in his expression that could not be concealed...... No, this should be called complacency, right?

"Haha, Mr. Merlin really deserves to be the legendary mage of our Great Britain, is this 100,000 gold coins considered the starting capital for me to build a business empire?"

'One hundred thousand gold coins? Li Yuan blinked, and hurriedly opened his storage bag, there was no doubt that there was only one gold coin lying in his storage bag.

He was a little unconvinced, so he turned around and asked Taro Sakamoto, "Brother Sakamoto, how many gold coins did you find from that gift package?" ”

"Gold?" Taro Sakamoto was a little puzzled, "I didn't get the extra gold coins?" ”

"This ...... That's right! Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that that person should be an exception.

But the next moment, Taro Sakamoto's words made Li Yuan's heart suddenly twitch: "But I seem to have obtained a skill, which seems to be able to store physical strength and magic power, called ...... Energy storage. Well, and a dress and a wooden sword. ”

"Huh? Skill? Li Yuanyi was stunned: "How do you know?" ”

"How do you know...... Sakamoto Taro thought slightly, "That's how I know, when a light enters my palm, I know." ”

"This ...... That's it! The corners of Li Yuan's eyes jumped.

"Li Yuansang, what did you get?" Taro Sakamoto asked suspiciously.

"Uh, me?" Li Yuan's face suddenly froze, and he checked his storage bag and skills unbelievingly, but everything was empty, as if he was laughing at him nakedly, he should ...... Didn't get anything?
