The pressure has now shifted to FFF. He's feeling numb from the endless stream of private messages.
The White Light signed lightsaber that he sold earlier has reappeared in the forum's auction, with a starting price of a staggering 8.88 million...
As the reputation of the White Lights grows, the value of collectibles will inevitably rise.
To be honest, even someone as shrewd as FFF couldn't have imagined that the starting price for this lightsaber would be so high, and that people would actually bid on it, with the auction price quickly reaching 11 million...
What a loss!
Huge loss!
At this moment, Qingchen sent him a message: "Use the funds to prepare 200 sets of the best equipment on the market, as well as a full range of gene-based drugs."
When FFF saw this message, he was shocked. 200 sets? He quickly realized that this boss was about to make a big move again!
It's a very big undertaking; otherwise, why would we need so many things?
So, this boss really does have teammates, two hundred of them.
Oh no, the world of superconductivity is about to change!
...
...
The news that the White Light is suspected to be the Joker is slowly spreading. After all, Storm City already has its suspicions, and they must submit the information to the Central Royal City.
Otherwise, if the Fate Master's intelligence agency investigates the matter afterward and finds out that you knew about it but didn't report it, then you're finished.
The Fate Masters' intelligence network is far more terrifying than that of the Arbiters; it seems there's nothing that can be hidden from them.
Before the virtuoso of Roosevelt Kingdom, the only thing you need to do is not to hide anything; hiding something has a worse consequence than making a mistake.
Those from the four major guilds who participated in the recent battle couldn't help but wonder: if Joker could use the Godslayer in the Superconducting World, then he should be able to do it in the real world too!
Having played in the superconducting world for so long, they naturally understand the practical implications of those skills for the real world.
Because they will also learn in the world of superconductivity.
Some have speculated that Hades found the necromancer tradition, which had been lost for over two hundred years, in the real world, which is why he deleted his S-rank account and started over, embarking on the path of a necromancer again in the superconducting world.
Now, if this Joker wants to kill you, all he needs to do is use Godcut to pass through you, and you'll explode into fireworks like a flame reaction. You can't even withstand the energy he releases during his jump.
From then on, the Joker could move freely among thousands of troops, killing with just one move.
This is truly a case of killing a thousand men in seven steps, leaving no trace for ten thousand miles.
And most importantly, the skills in the superconducting world are actually miniature versions. Who knows what the effect would be if they were used in the real world?
Therefore, we must never allow the Joker to have the chance to ascend to demigod alive!
...
...
At this moment, Qingchen logged off.
He took off his virtual reality glasses and looked around: "Huh, is nobody using that virtual pod?"
Hu Xiaoniu explained, "The old man just went in and tried it out, and he said it was quite fun."
Qingchen looked at the old man: "Were you robbed after you went in?"
"Well, it's just a key, so be it," the old man said.
"Where did you go after that?" Qingchen asked.
The old man said irritably, "What business is it of yours where I go or what I do? I'm just wandering around. Can the chairman of the board restrict my personal freedom?"
"I was just asking casually," Qingchen thought, feeling that... the other person's stubbornness was exactly the same as when he had tricked Yi back then.
The old man asked, "Now that the identity crisis has been resolved, what are the plans next?"
Qing Chen pondered, "I'll soon be heading to the battlefield of the Forbidden Forest. The Roosevelt Kingdom is about to go to war with the Giant Dynasty. Before I leave, I need to make arrangements for things in the Superconducting World. All the experts under the four dukes will be participating in the war. With those experts gone, it's a great opportunity for us to seize the points ranking. My goal is to rack up points and secure all the spots in the top ten!"
"What's the use of the leaderboard?" the old man asked, puzzled.
Qing Chen said, "The top ten each month can get the chance to awaken in the real world. The first place can make an already awakened expert awaken again. However, the upper limit of the first place's opportunity should be B level to A level. I haven't heard of anyone being able to go from A level to S level demigod."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in disbelief. It turned out that there were actually methods to interfere with the awakening process in the Western Continent.
This method is too important; no wonder Qing Chen is so determined to immerse himself in the superconducting world!
At this time, the four major guilds were still trying to figure out how to push White Light off the top spot.
Little did they know, Qing Chen was thinking about how to squeeze them all out...
He didn't plan to give up any of the top 10 awakening slots each month!
Since everyone is in hibernation while in the superconducting world, they can train during the day and log in at night. As long as the Key Gate is open and Qing Ji can open the Shadow Gate to pick them up, they can log back in at any time, even if they are training in the snowy mountains.
The butler's apartment has become a secret base in the Eastern Continent. Qing Chen returned to Ginkgo Manor to start teaching. He wanted to bring all his disciples out before setting off for the Forbidden Forest.
Half an hour later, Qingchen stood at the front of the conference room like a teacher: "Come on, let's start with the first lesson, face pinching."
The old man stood outside the door; of course, he couldn't listen to the lecture like a student, but he listened with exceptional concentration as he stood in the corridor...
In the conference room, Chen Zhuoqu hesitated for a moment before asking, "Master, since the Western Continent has such strict controls, how did we get so many virtual reality glasses? Won't they be tracing the buyers' information?"
Qing Chen smiled and replied, "I don't plan to buy it."
...
...
Inside an apartment in Blackwater.
Zhong Yu stood up from the virtual pod and remained silent for a long time before saying, "Hehe, you really are ruthless when it comes to killing. I like it."
When Qingchen came out of the No. 8 Multiverse instance, he was in a hurry to get away and killed Zhongyu instantly.
But for such an abnormal player, being instantly killed might not be such an infuriating thing, after all, he is an F-rank low-level account, so being instantly killed is normal.
What Zhongyu is more concerned about is that this "white light" is indeed ruthless. He fought alone in the dungeon and still managed to kill so many players.
The four major guilds' joint attempt to block him failed, and Zhongyu developed a sense of mutual respect for this kind of person.
However, being instantly killed is still a bit unpleasant, and he still hasn't been able to obtain a profession or level in the superconducting world, so he can't go on a killing spree.
So, let's go back to the real world and kill people.
He is a demigod in the real world; this is his home turf.
With that in mind, Zhong Yu pushed open the door and went to a cathedral he had previously spotted.
Just then, Zhong Yu received a message on his phone: "This is the office of Marquis Morton. A Level 1 War Order has been issued. Freeman 281994441, please proceed to Blackwater City Airport within 2 hours to prepare for assembly."
"Huh, war?" Zhongyu seemed to have found something interesting: "Hehe."
At the same time, Yi passed through the key gate and arrived at Ginkgo Manor. The mute servant stared at her in astonishment and wrote on the LCD screen: "Who are you?"
Yi smiled and replied, "I am Qingchen's life robot. I have important news to inform him."
The mute servant went to inform Qingchen, who asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Yi said softly, "I detected a large amount of information on the civilian network. The war between the Roosevelt Kingdom and the Forbidden Forest is about to begin. You need to assemble at Storm City Airport within two hours. The Crimson Blood Squad and Blue Mountain did not notify you. If you fail to assemble within the specified time, you will be directly sent to a military court."
Qing Chen was stunned for a moment; he hadn't expected the war to come so quickly.
War has truly broken out.
Chapter 839, Caught Up
There was still a little over an hour left before the deadline for the war mobilization order.
2 a.m.
On the bridge between Triston Tower and Gobert Tower in Storm City, a figure was moving rapidly.
This narrow covered bridge connects two tall buildings, much like a tightrope walker bridging a thin steel cable between the two structures.
And this figure is a tightrope walker.
Reaching the end of the covered bridge, he carefully climbed up the glass facade of the building, his fingers gripping the gaps between the glass panes. It looked dangerous, but he did it with remarkable ease.
Soon we arrived at the edge of the rooftop terrace, which was the apartment of Marquis Casey of Storm City.
The Marquis of Casey transformed the top seven floors of the tallest building in the city center into an island exclusively for the wealthy.
There is a floor here where all sorts of the most beautiful female slaves are imprisoned. They live in separate rooms on this floor and dress up carefully every day just to welcome the nobles who are coming.
Another entire floor is a private casino, where female slaves temporarily act as sexy dealers when the games begin...
The remaining half-floor is a virtual world built by Marquis Casey. The wealthy will bring their most powerful slaves here, have the slaves connected to neurons and enter the superconducting world, then enter the 199th multiverse to fight each other. The slave owner who wins in the end will be able to take all the bets on the table.
The wealthy will watch from this floor, where professionals will record the screen and broadcast it live to a large screen.
Of course, the noble lords still preferred to watch real-life wilderness battles, which were more bloody and exciting, but nobles had to report to Duke Storm before leaving the city, otherwise they would be considered treasonous.
Therefore, everyone should avoid causing trouble if possible.
This year's Duke of Storms is not easy to get along with.
However, for the sake of excitement, they would hold rituals to kill the defeated slaves, so that the slaves would fight to the death on the broadcast, creating some wonderful and fantastical scenes.
This rooftop is very famous in Storm City. Many people, in their youthful ignorance, vow that they must one day be qualified to participate in the card games here.
It is said that even the Duke of Storms occasionally visits.
Each time the Duke of Storms visited, many body bags would be transported out of the rooftop.
The black figure arrived at the top floor, gently gripping the edge of the wall with both hands, listening to the sounds from the rooftop.
Twelve security personnel, with automatic rifles slung around their necks, patrolled strictly along a fixed route, their eyes sharp as eagles.
The next moment, the dark figure leaped into the rooftop.
Almost at the same time he appeared, 12 security personnel raised their guns and opened fire indiscriminately, without asking why, without asking his identity, without leaving any survivors, and did so decisively.
However, the bullets hovered in front of the shadowy figure.
"Joker!" the well-trained security personnel exclaimed. They knew, of course, who Black Spider had been searching for with such a large-scale operation recently.
After the exclamation, as the dark figure lightly landed on the ground, all the bullets were deflected back by the ricochet, and all 12 people fell to the ground.
