Chapter 85: Things Are Turning Bad

The ancient mirror was evil to begin with. Old Master Wang looked at it without a second thought and even let it reflect his own face. Such a backlash now was only to be expected.

I carefully stepped back a few paces, keeping my distance from him.

Old Master Wang’s face grew ever more ferocious, and he kept nodding uncontrollably.

“I only looked at this…”

On second thought, I understood. Someone like Jiang Cheng would cause a sensation no matter where he went, so this place must have been cleared out in advance as well.

By now, most of the players in the game had already reached level fifty, and what they were doing was precisely the level fifty dungeon.

One thing, too, was beyond doubt: anyone who could work for Shoreline Corporation, even if they had been fired, would still enjoy a tremendous advantage when applying to other companies thanks to that résumé. If they had resigned of their own accord, it would be all the more so.

In the time it took to breathe three times, three Saint Sword experts of the first rank were cleaved in two and fell from the sky. This sent Shangguan Qingyun into a fury.

Thinking that Jiang Cheng had gone to the trouble of getting me a meal from a hundred-flavor restaurant, the resentment in my heart toward him diminished considerably. I had to admit, Jiang Cheng’s little sweet jujube was truly delicious.

Seeing that Yu Xuanji was about to gradually reverse the situation, how could Madam Sun be willing to let it go? She wanted that slut Yu Xuanji to pay back every bit of suffering Rour had endured.

After chatting for a while, Ye Hua left the hardware development department and took a detour to the software development division to assign some development tasks.

The future is an age of wireless power transmission, one in which electricity is delivered and used wherever and whenever it is needed. In that world, batteries would find themselves in a terribly awkward position. It could not yet be said that they would vanish from history, but being pushed to the margins was beyond doubt.

Although Hua Wu had her eyes closed, she heard everything they said. When she heard that Feng Mo had agreed to Wang Kou, she knew Feng Mo had already noticed what she was doing.

Even so, the python was still bleeding. The searing pain drove it into a frenzy, its massive head whipping violently from side to side, and its huge body swaying along with it.

The sound of roof tiles shattering on the ground and the dull thud of crossbow bolts burying themselves in the wooden frame above the window rang out at the same time, yet it was completely drowned out. In the silence of the night, that single sound was as clear as thunder. The imperial guards, already taut with nerves, jolted at once upon hearing it, and nearly half of them surged out from the Li Zheng Hall.

In the end, fewer than twenty or thirty out of every hundred soldiers from the Solomon Alliance Army managed to break through. They were badly weakened in a single battle.

Before the two dishes, the two judges found themselves unable to decide. Although Lin Jie held the advantage in creativity and flavor, the magnificent braised grouper was indeed an excellent dish.

Those warriors who had guarded the imperial city all along proved to be as brittle as rotten leather, utterly incapable of resisting. In the blink of an eye, more than half of them had been taken down.

Tang Yike could not understand it, but she could feel the sanctity of that moment, because her usually irreverent master wore a very solemn expression.

The Purple Emperor suppressed the urge in his heart and waited patiently for the lamb leg to finish roasting. By the time the air was filled with fragrant aromas, he had already started gnawing away at it.

“Ouye Yu, let us stop here. I do not wish to hurt you,” said Mu Qingshan. It was meant as a kind warning, but in Ouye Yu’s ears, it sounded entirely different.

As for Mu Bai making the game, the actual production tasks were still handed over to Ling Tong’s side. Mu Bai himself was only responsible for the game’s planning.

“Since miss knows about shadow guards, she should know what shadow guards are for.” The shadow guard lying on the ground struggled up and said each word slowly and distinctly.

Meanwhile, Wu Xiaozu, as a “blind man,” could only pretend nothing was amiss while the other person sized him up and changed clothes.

When the time came, countless people simultaneously applied for the right to purchase. During the first ten minutes, purchase eligibility was drawn by lottery, and one hundred thousand lucky winners were chosen.
