Chapter 295: The Meeting Point of Past, Present and Future (Part 2)
In the dark night sky, artificial light enveloped everything.
Rhode raised his head. The full moon and stars in the night sky had long disappeared. Instead, they were replaced by endless lights. Various lights came from bottom to top. Standing at a high place, you could see the river of ches composed of lights not far away, constantly moving forward. The whole world was like a sea of light. The wide virtual idol on the screen covering the entire wall was showing the goods in his hands to the audience with a smile. The searchlights not far away were from bottom to top, leaving their own brilliance on the curtain of the night.
"What should I say..."
Rhodes stood by the street and looked at everything in front of him. He reached out and tapped the vending machine in front of him. But what was coming was not the familiar and cold touch in his memory. Rhodes's hand easily passed through the instrument made by modern technology, swinging like air. Seeing this scene, Rhodes just shrugged his shoulders, turned his head and looked at the towering triangular building in front of him. It seemed that it was already evening. Although the city center was still bustling, it had gradually become quiet. No one was here, except for the pure white light emitted by the solar street lights he received.
"It's here."
Rhodes could feel that this was not the world in his fantasy, but on the contrary, this world was real. But it was here, but not here. Like himself, this world seemed to be divided into two. One was a real existence, and the other was a reflection of nothingness in the mirror. Rhodes raised his hand again. A faint white light covered his body, and the entire space shocked for a moment. Then he raised his hand again and gently tapped the vending machine in front of him.
"Dangdang."
A crisp sound rang out, and the vending machine shook for a moment. Feeling the familiar touch, Rhode's mouth slightly raised, then he clenched his right hand into a fist, raised his head and looked around, and then waved it hard again.
"Dong!!"
The vending machine was beaten and suddenly shook. Then three or five bottles of drinks rolled out of it. The vending machine, which felt that he was treated rudely, began to scream unyieldingly. The harsh alarm sounded through the night sky. But Rhode didn't care at all. He lowered his head and picked up the cans of drinks that fell at his feet. When he raised his head, he happened to see the convenience store owner rushing out of the store through the reflection of the glass window opposite, and strode to the vending machine and looking around. But there was no Rhode there.
"Huh..."
The cold and comfortable carbonated drink went down his throat, making Rhode tremble. Then he threw the can that had been finished and pinched into the trash can next to him, then picked up another can of drink, and walked towards the building in front of him as if he was walking. Rhode is not unfamiliar with this place, or any player in the Dragon Soul Continent is not unfamiliar with this place. Because this is the sanctuary in the hearts of those gamers. It is also the birthplace of the game "Dragon Soul Continent".
B&M Company.
The door slid quietly and opened, and Rhodes walked into the building. The whole hall was bright, but no receptionists or guards could be seen. Only the surveillance camera at the door turned slightly, but it seemed that there was no comment on the man in a strange costume.
"Ding Dong."
The crisp electronic sound sounded, and then the elevator next to it slowly opened. Without confirmation, Rhode looked up and walked into the elevator in front of him. Then the elevator door gradually closed and then ascended upwards. Rearing in the elevator, Rhode shook the Coke in his hand and looked at the scene in front of him. The artificially created electronic light was so dazzling that it even made Rhode think that he was in a dream for a moment. He didn't know which side was the dream and which side was the reality. Is it this world where he has lived for more than 20 years? Or the dream continent full of fire and sword, magic and great knowledge? If this side was the reality, then what was he? A man who was obsessed with Internet addiction? Thinking of this, Rhode couldn't help but smile bitterly, if this was
A movie that is oriented towards begging for Oscars. So as a character in the play, will his truth be the last time he entered a mental hospital? Or, he has never left this world at all. His previous experience is just a plot he imagined in the hospital. He regards the doctors, nurses, and patients there as characters in the game, and he imagines that he travels through a world and continues to miss the life in the game? Well, don’t say, this development is really a super-god turn... full of a strong literary atmosphere and questioning of real life, as well as the cruelty and coldness of society... If he can’t accept reality and commit suicide, it is definitely at least an Oscar-selected level...
"bite……………"
Another slight sound pulled Rhode back from his thoughts that had been off topic for 80,000 miles. He raised his head and looked at the elevator door that was slowly opened in front of him. It was pitch black outside the door. It seemed that he had completely gotten off work. But as Rhode stepped out of the elevator, the sensing light automatically lit up, as if guiding the lost soul in front of him.
Having said that, this really looks like a plot in a horror movie. Could it be that there is something wrong with COS and a real version of OFFICE?
Rhode swayed the coke in his hand again, and then walked forward. There was no service staff here to receive it, but he knew exactly where his destination was. Because he clearly sensed that four powerful auras were waiting for him at the end of the corridor.
The door is open.
The huge conference room was quiet. Rhode looked up and soon saw four figures that were very familiar to him sitting in the conference room and staring at him. Seeing these four people, Rhode raised his mouth slightly, then reached out to pull over a chair and sat down.
"Everyone, should I say I haven't seen you for a long time? Or should I say I'm the first time I met?"
"Long time no see, Mr. Rhode."
Hearing Rhode's words, a man in his thirties, who was nearly thirty, answered with a smile. He reached out and gently lifted his gold-rimmed glasses. Sitting beside him was a woman about twenty-six or seven years old. She was wearing a dress worn by a professional woman, with an equal kindness and a heartfelt smile on her delicate face. Just sitting there made people feel that she was shining with light all the time. On the other side, there were a pair of sisters sitting, who looked about the same age as the Canary, but they were also wearing B&M uniforms.
Rhodes is not unfamiliar with the four people in front of him. Any player in "Dragon Soul Continent" knows them and the history of B&M. Especially after the holographic virtual reality game of Dragon Soul Continent has exploded around the world, those third-rate tabloids have almost dug up everything their ancestors have done - but unfortunately, it seems that the paparazzi's skills are not deep enough. At least Rhodes never remembered seeing the rumors that "the CEO and CEO of B&M are time travelers from another world" somewhere.
As a top player, Rhode has participated in various events organized by B&M. Of course, he has dealt with these people very often. The middle-aged man on the left is the CEO of B&M, and the woman sitting next to him is the president Serena. As for the sisters, they are the rumored genius engineer sisters Ning Mi and Ning Jing. The four of them come from different countries and different identities, but they finally got together and established and created this popular game around the world. Although I have known that these four people are not simple, now they seem... they seem even less simple than I imagined.
"So, I think, we should introduce ourselves to each other?"
"certainly."
Hearing Rod's inquiry, Oult smiled, then he sorted out his suit and spoke.
"So, let me introduce myself again. I am the Dark Dragon—Orter."
"I was really surprised. I thought the Dark Dragon would be a more serious behind the scenes."
Hearing this, Rhode couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He said this seriously, especially considering Ion's dead face. Looking at the dark dragon who was smiling so kindly in front of him, Rhode really felt that the contrast was really big. However, Ort didn't say much about Rhode's words, just smiled slightly. Soon, Serena beside him also spoke up and introduced herself.
"I am Serena, the Dragon of Light, and I'm glad to see you again, Mr. Rhode."
This dragon of light deserves its name...
Looking at Serena, Rod secretly compared her heart and found that Serena and Lilian did have similarities. They both had a radiant aura, but unlike Lilian, Serena was obviously more perfect and firm. It seemed that Lilian's shortcomings had been completely supplemented by her, and even made Rhode feel that she was a little dazzling. But this was just a moment, and soon Rhode withdrew his gaze and looked at the remaining two. Feeling Rhode's gaze, the two sisters also waved at Rhode with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Rod, I am the Dragon of Judgment—Frein."
"Hello, Mr. Rhodes, I am Seth, the Dragon of Judgment."
It's really interesting. Looking at the sisters, Rhode's first reaction was that he remembered his subordinates Grey Hill and Madalas. If they could talk, they would probably be similar to these sisters. But two... Could you be in the world for too long? You don't look like the Dragon of Creation, but you are like two celebrity idols signing and shaking hands with fans...
"Hello, everyone, I think you already know that I am the current Void Dragon—Rod."
Speaking of this, Rhode let go of his hands that had been fiddling with Coke, and then he raised his head and looked at the four of them.
"So, after the greetings, we can get to the point. I think, you and I have questions that need to be answered."
Then, Rhode spoke.
