Chapter 43: The Child of Light

Long Chen cleared his throat and said respectfully: "My lord, I will first report to you on the operation of the first three quarters of this year. ”

"As I told you, I'm not an adult. It stands to reason that you should call me a teacher. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Faced with Long Chen's stubbornness, Ying Zheng glared at him, and said helplessly:

"Alright, sit down and talk. Although Wudinghai is a virtual space, there is also gravity, and people will get tired after standing for a long time. ”

Two yellow rosewood chairs appeared out of thin air, and after the two sat down, Long Chen bowed and said:

"Profits in the first three quarters totaled 183.2 billion yuan, down from the same period last year. The main reason is that the materials for making the immersive system are becoming more and more difficult to find, and the price is rising too fast, followed by the fact that the location of the "Bright World" clubhouse has changed from easy to difficult, the golden city has basically been developed, and some of the remaining areas have resisted us, resulting in a sharp increase in the cost of dredging relations. At present, there are 1,000 clubs mainly distributed in China and Southeast Asia, and in other regions, there are 10 in Russia, only 3 in Australia, and a total of 52 in Africa. Europe and the Americas are still assessing the impact of realistic systems on human health, and there is no market access, so I am ready for the next phase......"

"Stop!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "From today onwards, all operations do not need to be reported to me, you are in charge." From today onwards, the expansion of the club will be stopped, and when the reserve production materials are exhausted, the factory will be closed and disbanded, and the assets will be realized. ”

He tilted his head slightly, and the beaded curtain on his crown swayed, crisp and pleasant. Although he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, his tone was very resolute.

"This, this ......"

Isn't this the rhythm of self-abandonment of martial arts and withdrawal from the rivers and lakes?

Long Chen was choked up all of a sudden, and he was going to use the case to report the transition often, but the focus was still to deal with the provocation of the Xiuzhen Sect, but he never dreamed that the messenger would make such a ridiculous decision, and he suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.

Ying Zheng stood up, looked around, sighed, and said, "You have followed me for many years, and there must be many doubts in your heart, so I will explain them one by one today." ”

Since Yingzheng stood up, Long Chen was not good at sitting with a big stab, so he quickly stood up and listened respectfully.

"Before and after you saddle your horse, only my order is to listen, but my identity is always a thorn in your heart. If I can develop my brain domain, how can I not feel the fear that lies behind your loyalty? Hehe, in fact, your problem is also my problem. After so many years, I have lost a lot of important information, sometimes sober and sometimes confused, often unable to figure out who I am. ”

Ying Zheng stretched out two fingers, knocked his forehead in distress, and said, "But I can tell you that I am definitely not a demon or a monster, nor is it a corpse of Qin Shi Huang."

"I developed the simulation system and founded The Bright World, and you are my agent in the world. But what you don't know is that all this is not to make money, not to serve the society and improve technology, but to find a special group of people. The earth is facing a catastrophe, and humanity may become extinct, so it is necessary to select a special group of people to carry the continuation of civilization, and I call them the Children of Light. Recently, I have become more and more insensitive that a catastrophe could occur within a few years. Since it was clear that time was running out, the step-by-step plan I had made had to be revised, and extraordinary things would have to be done at extraordinary times.

"So far, there is a huge amount of information. To continue civilization, the brains of the Children of Light must be wide enough for me to infuse information. In order to support the high-intensity operation of the brain, it is necessary to have a strong body, and to be able to survive in the last days, it is necessary to have a strong spirit. A broad mind, a strong body, and a tenacious spirit are the three conditions for me to choose the child of light. I set out a thousand strands of thought entrenched in the 1,000 local area networks of "Bright World", and when I find good seedlings, I will cultivate them, broaden his brain domain, strengthen his body, and shape his faith and spirit. But it's a pity that "Bright World" has been in operation for five years, and the number of Internet users is billions, and it has only cultivated twenty-eight children of light, and I call them twenty-eight nights. There are so few that it takes at least hundreds of people to carry civilization.

"But I also found an interesting statistic, the probability of producing a child of light among ordinary people is about 1 in 10 million, about 1 in 100,000 in martial arts, and 3 in 1,000 among cultivators. What does this mean? It shows that cultivators are very strong physically, mentally, and mentally, and are most suitable for becoming children of light. It's a pity that the cultivation realm has always avoided the world, and very few materials have been circulated on the Internet. As far as I know, the superpowers of cultivators come from the use of a mysterious substance, 'True Qi', which belongs to another body of knowledge. But it doesn't matter, as long as they're still human, flesh and blood, and nervous systems, I can control them.

"At first, I was looking for it from ordinary people, then from people in the martial arts, and now I am looking for it from cultivators. The cultivation realm also sensed that the end was coming, and the creed and ethics that violated the thousand-year-old creed and ethics appeared one after another, just trying to grab resources in order to survive in the last days. This catastrophe extends far beyond the terrestrial level and cannot be undone by manpower. Therefore, my policy is to cultivate as many children of light as possible, lurking in the last days, and not letting civilization break its roots.

"At the beginning, "Bright World" set its sights on martial arts people, which caused dissatisfaction among martial arts, thinking that the virtual network had robbed the apprentices in reality. But the martial arts masters who entered the "Bright World" to make trouble were all quietly transformed by me, becoming faster and stronger, and soon changed their concepts after tasting the sweetness, and took the initiative to open an online museum to teach apprentices. Now, except for some old stubborns, there are not many opposing voices in the martial arts. But the Xiuzhen sect is a completely different matter, compared to the weakness and looseness of martial arts, they have a strict management system and independent sovereignty, they are resistant to the world, and they are contemptuous of technology. In recent years, cultivators have begun to appear in the world of light, and I have chosen excellent, instructed them to win over their fellow disciples, and worked hard for a year before I selected eight sons of light and dozens of followers. Hahaha, I dug the foot of the wall hard, and the Xiuzhen sect was certainly vigilant. But those old antiques hated technology, and they didn't know the situation and refused to lower their bodies to investigate, so they left me with a chance to develop, otherwise they would have come to the door a long time ago.

"But the catastrophe is approaching, and I don't have time to infiltrate slowly. Therefore, half a month ago, I ordered the three sons of light to lead ten followers to oppose the South China Sea Sect, threatening to cultivate the truth for ten years, it is better to stay in the Bright World for a day! This is the reason why the South China Sea Sect is angry and embarrassed. Since the cultivators entered the WTO, they have been devastated, and "Bright World" is the first secular force to respond to the battle head-on, and all forces, including the military and officials, are staring at it with wide eyes. I provoked this battle, it doesn't matter if I win or lose, what is important is that after this battle, the simulation system can be quickly spread out in the cultivation realm, producing more children of light.

"The six top Xiuzhen sects, the Immortal Valley, the Shushan faction, the Taodu faction, the Nanhai faction, the Zhengyi sect, and the Quanzhen sect, the Nanhai sect is the weakest link. This battle must be fought to the point where it hurts, and the other factions will value your existence. Then with the might of the First World War, he took refuge in the Xiuzhen Realm and gave away the clubhouse, and the plan was perfect. Remember, The Bright World is a bait to be swallowed comfortably, and if you treat it as a city and stick to it, you will be at odds with what I mean. ”

Hearing these words, Long Chen's face turned pale and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Ying Zheng pretended not to know and continued:

"At the beginning, you proposed the establishment of the Tianlong Life Science Research Institute, ready to use science to deconstruct martial arts. Now that we have discovered that the cultivator is our big customer, there is no need for it to exist. Of course, the initial work of the institute was still effective, and the EEG analysis report on consciousness, dreams, emotions, etc. was very good, and it played a supporting role in my study of human reason and emotion. What's more, I have been secretly creating Superman in the Bright World, and the Institute has become a front to attract public attention, and it is also a big target, and it is its mission to be destroyed, hahaha. However, in the process of establishing the research institute, you began to cultivate your personal power, which makes me very happy!"

Long Chen's back stiffened, and he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

"For more than a year, none of the personnel of the research institute, from security guards to martial artists to experts, have entered the "Bright World" for testing. You know that I can scan the brain and change a person's mind, so I isolate these people and want to create a worldly force that is independent of the Light World and is at your disposal. The thousand-year-old martial arts family dragon clan, none of them entered the "Bright World" transformation. I am indeed very pleased with this, don't think it's the opposite. I can easily control your minds, but I don't, because what I need is not a pawn, a minion, but a group of flesh-and-blood people who can continue civilization in the last days. It doesn't matter if you have your own ideas, as long as you don't go against the plan, and I never doubted your loyalty. Therefore, after this battle with the Nanhai faction, I will leave for a period of time and lead the Twenty-Eight Houses to open up a base in the end times, during which you will be in charge of all things. Remember, everything is a means, everything is a process, everything is a cloud of smoke!

"The three sons of light are all core disciples of the inner sect, and they actually rebelled against the South China Sea faction, and the shock to the cultivation realm is huge. In the past, cultivators were high above and looked at the world like ants, but this time someone abandoned the cultivation of truth and went to the world, which is no less than detonating an atom-bomb. The battle between "Bright World" and the Nanhai faction was the first head-to-head confrontation between the secular realm and the true realm. I guessed that the battle would be fought in two phases, the first stage was to suppress and humiliate the research institute at the martial arts conference, and the second stage was to destroy the door while the moon was scattered and the black wind was high at the end of the song. If the government forces are not needed, it is very good that the military and the police can stand by and watch. Since they dare to come, I will dare to fight! After you go offline, the first step is to withdraw the defenses and remove all the perimeter guards. The second step is to collect all the guns and go into battle. The third step is to invite a few controllable media to watch the ceremony, so as not to tear your face above the conference, and there is no room for maneuver. As for the aftermath of the conference, each has its own destiny!

"I am upright and upright, and I don't play tricks, just to let the secular world see that the samurai cultivated in "Bright World" can fight with the cultivators, and that the cultivation world can see that "Bright World" can assist in cultivation. As long as I can contribute a few more Children of Light, I don't mind improving the abilities of cultivators. ”

Ying Zheng smiled, stroked his beard, like an old fox who had stolen sesame oil, and smiled very proudly.

Long Chen's expression changed with Ying Zheng's words, and gradually calmed down from uneasiness, and said:

"My lord, I am here for this. This time, the Nanhai faction even dispatched the inner disciples, and I heard that there were still old monsters who had been cultivating for many years. ”

Ying Zheng smiled:

"Do you still want to ask for a soldier or horse? If I am strong and strong, do I need such a twist and turn? This time, I drew a team of 100 people composed of high-level martial artists and a team of 10 people composed of middle-level halls from the "Bright World", which is enough to sweep the martial arts. Don't bother the Sons of Light, sending them into the field would be tantamount to killing chickens and eggs, and I wouldn't do such a stupid thing. ”

"My lord, we are quite inferior in high-end combat power. ”

"Didn't I send you Butterfly Dance?"

"The butterfly dance is only a high-level palace, and it may not be invincible. ”

Ying Zheng frowned and said:

"Butterfly Dance's body is the most successful transformation I have made among a martial arts master, and it has reached the limit of the human body, and it can be called invincible at the same level, enough to be a grandmaster in a battle. Those 100 martial artists and 10 halls are also extraordinary. Such a lineup is enough for self-preservation, and after the conference, it will send a soft peace to the South China Sea. My purpose is to promote the Bright World to the cultivation realm, and not to fight for a moment!"

"What if the South China Sea faction doesn't accept the request for peace and kills them all?"

Ying Zheng laughed and said:

"You've come full circle, and you actually want to ask this, right? If he wants to fight, then he will fight! Don't worry, I'll watch from the sky. One day before becoming an immortal, one day still a human, the cultivator really rebelled against the sky, but my real opponent is not them!"
