Huaxia Pengcheng

Pengcheng High Prosecutor's Hall

"This hall has made a final decision!"

"From now on, all assets under the names of Wu Ancheng and Mu Ling will be confiscated!"

"To pay all the losses of the plaintiff, Phantom World Metaverse Technology!"

"At the same time, the defendant Wu Lie is not allowed to operate in the upper and intermediate city circles for five years!"

'Bell! ’

As the hammer of justice sounded, a grudge that had been entangled for 12 years came to an end.

As the door to the Prosecutor's Chamber opened.

A group of reporters who had been waiting for a long time flocked to the scene...

"Mr. Wu, is the original Yuanjing of the Qiyuan World in your hands?"

"Mr. Wu, your parents stole it..."

"Secretary Yu, Wu Ancheng as your comrade-in-arms..."

"Everyone!" As a middle-aged man roared angrily, the reporters suddenly fell silent.

"Please give way!"

The words fell, and the middle-aged man entered the car with Wu Lie.

Disappear from view...

Seven years later...

City

Heavy Industry Machinery Zone of the lower urban circle.

Steel buildings stand tall.

In mid-air, heavy transport drones buzzed back and forth.

'Toot ......'

'Toot ......'

'Toot ......'

With the sound of a loud mechanical horn, the heavy metal gate slowly rises.

Then, a huge contingent of workers came out one after another.

Fifteen years ago, many cities were gone.

Planners divided each city into three intercity circles.

There are three urban circles: upper, middle and lower.

The Lower City Circle, which is mainly based on manufacturing, only retains a small number of material business areas.

Although a third of the area is used as a residential area.

However, the area left for everyone to live in is less than 10 square meters per person.

And these oppressive steel buildings are also known as bakeries.

In the L9 area of heavy industry, accompanied by the sound of the mechanical horn.

Wu Lie, who was wearing heavy protective clothing, also came to the steam room.

After the radiation cleaning test, I went to the locker room.

"Time flies so fast..."Looking at the helmet he had just taken off, Wu Lie let out a sigh.

was restricted from expulsion that year, and Wu Lie came to the lower-level city circle.

This time, it was seven years in the blink of an eye.

Now, the five-year period is long gone.

Today is also my last day working in heavy industry.

The young boy of those years is long gone.

The current Wu Lie has blue and black broken hair.

There was a breath of fortitude in his eyebrows.

After a short sigh.

Wu Lie changed his clothes and walked towards the passage.

When I walked out of the passage, I saw two friends waiting for me.

"Yu Lie, Brother Le!"

Hearing the sound, the two people standing at the entrance of the passage also turned to look.

"Xiao Wu, are you really not thinking about it anymore?" As soon as Wu Lie arrived in front of him, Brother Le hurriedly asked.

Brother Le, whose real name is Lei Liangle.

After coming to Pengcheng more than 20 years ago, he has been working in heavy industry.

When Wu Lie and the two first came to the Xiacheng Circle, the first person they met was Brother Le.

In addition to being the superior of the two, he has also played the role of the eldest brother of the two over the years.

Take good care of the two of them.

A month ago, Wu Lie and the two found Brother Le to resign.

This surprised Brother Le.

You must know that Wu Lie has been in heavy industry for just seven years.

From an ordinary worker to a nuclear-controlled energy unit.

This is a position that many people will never reach in their lifetime.

Brother Le, who didn't know why, immediately asked about the two.

Why quit.

Just when he learned that the two of them resigned because they were also going to enter Qiyuan, Brother Le was even more surprised.

immediately said that the two were too hasty!

Qiyuan, the full name of Qiyuan World.

The metaverse world created by the Phantom World Group for nearly 20 years with the help of diversified technologies.

Its name is also accompanied by the world-renowned Phantom Group.

Now, as Qiyuan is approaching the opening up, more and more classes are eager to try!

They are ready to enter Qiyuan and look for their own opportunities!

However, it is such a new world full of opportunities in the eyes of everyone.

But it made Brother Le feel too unreal.

Or rather.

The so-called metaverse.

In Brother Le's opinion, it's just a leek pool prepared for those super forces!

But he couldn't bear the resolute attitude of the two, and Brother Le could only agree in the end.

However, although the resignation of the two was agreed.

At this moment, Brother Le still wants to persuade the two to stay.

Hearing Brother Le's words, Wu Lie also smiled with relief.

Then he said: "Brother Le, I have thought it very clearly!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

It was handed to Brother Le and Yu Lie successively.

"You've thought it through, too?" Taking the cigarette, Brother Le turned his head to look at Yu Lie.

I saw Yu Lie glance at Wu Lie, and then shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"Alas, well!"

"Now that you've decided, I won't say anything more!"

Now it's their last day of work.

Seeing that the attitude of the two was still the same, Brother Le could only give up the idea of persuasion.

As the words fell, Brother Le also swept away his worries, and said with a smile: "Since you have decided, let's go and have a good time!" ”

"I'm sure you have what it takes!"

"Well, we will!" Wu Lie nodded in response.

"It's okay, Brother Le, if you don't make a name for yourself, let's mess with you again!" Yu Lie said with a cheap smile.

"Hmph, it's beautiful!"

"I'll tell you two, if you can't make a name for yourself, don't come back!"

"I can't afford to lose this man!" Brother Le looked at the two of them and said with a smile.

For a moment, the three of them laughed loudly.

Brother Le said this, Wu Lie and the others naturally did not take it seriously.

And Brother Le, of course, is just joking.

All three of them knew it in their hearts.

If it really comes to this.

There is no need for the two of them to speak, and Brother Le will definitely not care.

But.

At this moment, Wu Lie's eyes are firm!

As if telling the two and themselves.

I will never let these four words appear!

After some laughter.

The three of them came to Brother Le's house together.

Knowing that Wu Lie and the two were leaving, Brother Le's lover also prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Waiting for the meal to be served, Brother Le said directly.

Anyway, the three of them are going to have a good drink tonight.

Wu Lie and the others were also happy.

In this way, the three of them drank until late at night.

It wasn't until Wu Lie's alcohol consumption peaked that they said goodbye and left...

"Lao Wu, why don't you let me mention it?" In the car, Yu Lie looked at Wu Lie with some puzzlement.

The reason why the two decided to go to the Qiyuan world.

It's not a matter of following the trend.

Or rather, this is a plan that the two have been preparing for a long time.

Several years of preparation, plus some channel information obtained by Yu Lie.

So the two of them can be very sure.

The Qiyuan world is different from all metaverse worlds.

There is even a possibility that it will become the third universe!

According to the plan of the two, they were originally going to invite Brother Le tonight.

and shared the information in the hands of the two of them with Brother Le.

But when Yu Lie was about to speak, he was stopped by Wu Lie halfway.

"After entering Qiyuan, let's talk about it when we have a chance!" Wu Lie looked out the window and said lightly.

When Yu Lie heard this, he didn't continue to ask.

Turn your head to look the other way.

Pengcheng in September, it seems that it will always be drizzling....

Late at night.

I don't know if it's because of the departure of the two.

Tonight's Brother Le and Sister-in-law Le seem to have a hard time sleeping.

I looked at my sleeping daughter.

Sister-in-law Le suddenly turned over and asked, "Old Lei, do you say that Xiao Wu can do this?" ”

"Hey, young man, it's a good thing to be aggressive, whether you can succeed or not, at least you have to fight like this, what if it happens?"

Hearing Sister-in-law Le's words, Brother Le returned softly.

Between the words, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.

"Old Lei, or ......"

"Or what?" Brother Le turned his head to look at his wife and smiled gently.

"I'm past that age, now I have you two, take care of you, and it's enough for you to love me."

When the words fell, Brother Le reached out and pinched his wife's face.

"Sleep, I have to work tomorrow."

"Hmm..."Sister-in-law Le hummed softly.

Gently hug Brother Le and go to sleep with peace of mind...

......

September 15th

Intermediate City Circle

Pengcheng Bay residential area

'Buzz ......'

'Buzz ......'

Feeling the bracelet vibrating constantly, Wu Lie slowly sat up from the bed.

Scratching his soft hair, he said, "Answer."

When the voice falls, the charging miniature bee eye is automatically activated.

After a simple scan towards Wu Lie, who was not yet awake.

I connected to the visual call.

"Come down and help get something, the equipment I bought has arrived."

Before he could open his eyes, the scene on Yu Lie's side entered Wu Lie's line of sight through the sensor chip.

"Well, come down right away." Wu Lie answered, got dressed and walked downstairs.

Although it has been implanted with a biosensing chip for a long time.

But Wu Lie still couldn't help but think about a question: This thing really won't replace itself?

"Why are there so many?" As soon as he walked to the door, Wu Lie was startled by the scene in front of him.

Five medium-sized transport drones will occupy the entire yard.

Among them, there are also more than a dozen large boxes!

"How can there be so many things, don't you say it's a somatosensory suit?"

"The day before yesterday, I told my dad that we were moving here."

"He heard that we were going to enter Qiyuan, and he said that it was for us." Yu Lie was holding something in his hand, and his mouth was not idle.

As he spoke, Wu Lie also hurriedly moved.

The two ran back and forth more than a dozen times, and finally moved all the two dozen boxes to the second floor.

Then, it took almost two more hours to install all the equipment.

The dormant capsule, the sign conduction monitor, and the sports capsule are all two!

A room thermostat, an air monitoring controller.

Finally, there are two sets of somatosensory suits and EEG sensing helmets placed on the dormant pod.

Looking at this pile of equipment, both of them let out a sigh of relief.

Although there is a holographic installation guide, it is really not easy.

"Young Master, Young Master Wu, breakfast is ready."

As soon as the big guys were arranged, the housekeeper of the Yulie family came in to inform the two of them of breakfast.

"There's about an hour left, breakfast first." Yu Yeol looked at the time.

AM 09:15

There are still 45 minutes until the opening of Qiyuan!

"Hmm!" Wu Lie answered, and the two went downstairs to the restaurant together.
