【001】Chess Club
Infinity City.
Hawkins sat in a rocking chair on the balcony and was looking at a letter that was written by a farewell letter.
A year has passed since the competition, and many forces have been shocked by Iona's perfect resurrection this year, and even spawned an organization of scholars to study the reasons for Iona's successful resurrection.
After the end of the competition, Hawkins sent invitations to many potential players, Feng Wu, Ye Hua, Hua Di, Zhang Shixiong, Xiao Shimei and many other players joined Infinity City and became a new player.
Feng Wu wanted to see Infinite City, Ye Hua wanted to pursue a higher realm of boxing, and Hua Di saw that Feng Wu and Ye Hua had agreed, so she simply agreed.
As for Zhang Shixiong and Xiao Shimei, Hawkins agreed to join Infinite City after promising them that they could open the Yellow Gate Martial Arts Hall in Infinite City to accept apprentices and teach.
At this time, the Infinite City can be said to be strong, if it is not located in the Eternal Space, the cultivator will not be able to enter the Infinite City at all, and the Infinite City will inevitably become a new force in the cultivation world that is not weaker than the forces such as the Atrium.
Unfortunately, there are people who don't belong to Infinity City.
After becoming a player for a year, Feng Wu didn't seem to be particularly interested in the player's power, but began to be extremely interested in a lot of strange technological products, so after knowing that there was an academy of sciences in the atrium, he decided to go to the atrium to study, and he probably won't come back.
"Hawkins, this is a brain drain, why don't we open an academy in Infinity City?" said Iona as she walked out of the room, glanced at Hawkins' letter, and smiled.
Iona began to collect her own heirs after joining Infinity City, and Ellingleaf and many elves born from the World Tree joined Infinity City one after another, but because of habits, customs and other problems, Hawkins simply set aside a special place for Iona to place elves.
However, Iona would often go to Hawkins' side to ask Hawkins for advice, because she found that Hawkins knew almost everything, as long as it was a question, Hawkins was 99% likely to give an answer after asking a question, and the answer was bound to be correct.
"There is really a need to introduce the Academy of Science and Technology, in fact, everything in Infinity City is very scientific, but it does not conform to the science in some people's common sense. Hawkins put down the farewell letter and said lightly.
Iona sat next to Hawkins, watching the people coming and going in the square outside the City Lord's Mansion, and sighed: "Sure enough, you will choose a place, right next to the resurrection point, it's really lively." ”
"Don't elves like to be pure?" Anna walked out of the dream kingdom, glanced at Iona with a slightly hostile look, and simply sat down next to Hawkins, and asked.
Iona smiled, "Most elves do like to be pure, but I prefer to be lively. ”
"Anyway, Hawkins, the technology of our Infinite City is not bad, even if it is a mecha, a space battleship or something, we all have people who can make it, is it very bad?" Anna asked, looking at Hawkins.
Hawkins smiled: "It's really not bad in terms of manufacturing, but in terms of research and development, we are really not as good as the Academy of Sciences in the atrium." ”
"Then just dig people up in the realm!" Anna suggested.
There are also a large number of scholars in the world cave, these scholars are rich in knowledge, each of them is a good teacher, there are many players who have learned a lot of knowledge in the world of knowledge, and many novelties in the infinite city often come from the world of knowledge.
"Impossible, unless the World Cave collapses, the old diehards of the world will definitely not be willing to relocate. Hawkins denied.
In the past, scholars in the world of knowledge did stay in the world of knowledge because they were unable to leave, but now that there is a back path of Hawkins, they are reluctant to leave.
The main thing is that it is too convenient to study the world cave in the world.
It's like a dinosaur researcher entering the Jurassic, who would be willing to leave while ensuring their own safety?
"So you're going to dig people up in the atrium?" Anna asked.
Hawkins smiled: "Maybe you can lead a team to the atrium as an exchange group." ”
"Is this very troublesome? Could it be that Infinite City wants to establish diplomatic relations with the Atrium?" Anna said unhappily, once a cultivator who was not a player entered Infinite City, it felt that Infinite City was not pure.
Iona also spoke: "I am also against establishing diplomatic relations with the atrium, the atrium is mixed with dragons and snakes, and it is not a good force, and it can't be accepted even the dirty part of it because it has a little shining point." ”
"Hawkins !!!"
As the three of them discussed, Marnie's voice came from the sky.
The three of them looked up and saw Marnie's glyph falling from the sky and smashing straight into Hawkins' head.
Hawkins raised one hand to catch Marnie, and with a twist of his hand he unloaded the force, placing Marnie on his lap while the other hand grabbed the small money bag in Marnie's hand like lightning.
"That's my trophy!" Marnie blew up on the spot.
Hawkins put away the money bag and said calmly: "This is my reward for saving your life, if I don't save you, you will fall to your death." ”
"I won't fall to my death, give it back to me. Marnie said with her teeth and claws.
Anna looked enviously at Marnie who was playing in Hawkins's arms, and said, "Hawkins, I'll come back at noon." ”
As she spoke, her body was hazy for a while, and she returned to the dream kingdom in a blink of an eye.
"What a handy ability. Iona sighed as she watched Anna leave.
Hawkins smiled, "Isn't it good that you got a career?"
"Well, the support class is actually pretty good. Iona couldn't help but smile.
She was originally a World Tree, and after becoming a player, she received a class called the Mother Tree of Life, which can resurrect dead spirits and produce nectar of life.
Now many stores in Infinity City are cooperating with Iona, and among the healing potions, the nectar of life ranks first, and as long as there is still a breath left, it can be pulled back.
However, compared to the help given to her by Hawkins, it is far less than the help she gave to Hawkins.
A strong man who is half a step into one, there are too many things to share, and Hawkins also understands the way to one, but he does not plan to take the road of oneness.
His current charm, if he exudes it with all his might, even a stone will fall for it, and if it is really one, the probability of success is very high.
But he didn't like the state of being one, infinite space, infinite time, and that's the only thing, and it wasn't the ideal state he wanted.
For example, in a certain world, the one who enters that world suddenly wants to go back to the past on a whim, even if there are different possibilities in that world, the one can only destroy the future and go straight to the past.
When other practitioners enter that world, they still see the past, not the future.
On the other hand, even if a transcendent goes back to the past, he does not need to destroy the future, so when other practitioners enter that world, they still arrive at the future.
Because he doesn't like it, Hawkins doesn't try to be unified.
Iona knew this, and as a person who wanted to be one, she could only sigh that Hawkins was talented and capricious, which was probably the privilege of genius.
......
Dark Demon Realm.
Li Xiao sat in the mirror space, thinking about his next step.
As a doppelganger of Hawkins' doppelganger, Li Xiao came to the Dark Demon Realm after the match, mainly because his original world had been destroyed, and even Iona couldn't restore it.
So he had to find a suitable place to settle the Li family.
After screening, he believes that the most suitable world for ghost cultivators and zombies is the Dark Demon Realm, which is a relatively dark world, where humans are captive by ghouls, necromancers, and dark elves, and are completely two-legged sheep-like existence.
It took him a year to finally solve the mess of ghouls, necromancers, dark elves, black dragons, etc., and finally brought the Li family back to the Dark Demon Realm, allowing them to live and reproduce here.
"Atrium?"
Hawkins transmits the information to the mother, and the mother issues a task to all the clones, and Li Xiao naturally sees this task as well.
To be honest, Jing Ji thinks about moving, he actually wants to go out and about, after all, as an anchor, his popularity has declined greatly this year, whether it is killing ghouls or necromancers, he can't satisfy the increasingly perverted audience.
What they want to see is an existence like Iona, and what they want to see is an earth-shattering event.
But everyone knows that there are so many big events, and the collision between the Evil God Cup and the will of the Abyss can be said to be a rare major event in the past hundreds of millions of years, and it is finally perfectly resolved, which can be regarded as satisfying the appetite of many audiences.
But at the same time, it also nourishes their appetites.
"Senior Ojiko, have there been any major events in the atrium recently? Li Xiao opened the live broadcast room and whispered to Ou Zhizi.
After about half an hour, Ojiko replied, "The atrium? Probably not, the atrium is still relatively quiet, and I haven't heard of anything big happening here." ”
"Oh, okay, then I'll ask to stick to the atrium. Hawkins replied.
After a while, he asked again about sticking to the atrium, and sticking to the atrium quickly replied, "Is the anchor coming to the atrium? It's better to come back after a while." ”
"Something happened?" Li Xiao's eyes lit up and he quickly asked.
Sticking to the atrium, he replied: "It's really troublesome, does the anchor know about the chess club?"
"Chess clubs? Li Xiao replied.
Sticking to the atrium introduced: "The chess club is a very mysterious organization, it is said that all those who join will get the identity of a chess piece, and the supreme leader is the chess player, he has complete control over the chess pieces, and even spies can't infiltrate this organization, recently they have targeted Mo Qi'er, the daughter of the Mo family, and there have been many chess pieces that have caused chaos in the atrium, and even attacked Mo Qi'er once, and many cultivators died." ”
"Does the person in charge of the atrium care?" Li Xiao said in surprise.
Sticking to the atrium, he said helplessly: "How can it not matter, the atrium has implemented a curfew, and a lot of personnel have been sent to patrol, but unfortunately the people in the chess club are too mysterious, and they have not been able to find their hiding place so far." ”
"So it's not time to go to the atrium?" Li Xiao said thoughtfully.
Sticking to the atrium, he replied, "It's really not suitable, and anyone who enters the atrium will probably be monitored." ”
"I see, thanks. Li Xiao replied.
Sticking to the atrium and smiling: "You're welcome, when the time is right, welcome the anchor to the atrium, and I'll invite the anchor to dinner when the time comes." ”
"Good. Li Xiao agreed.
After closing the live broadcast room, Li Xiao thought of sealing nothing.
Feng Wu seemed to have run to the atrium, not knowing what the situation was now.
