Data Wasteland

As soon as Chen Xing walked to the door, someone came out from inside. The corner was so narrow that the two almost collided. However, Chen Xing was agile and avoided it first.

"Sorry, I walked too quickly and almost ran into my husband. Please forgive me for the many offenses."

What came out was a handsome young man, dressed in a decent dress, and slightly nodded at Chen Xing, apologizing.

"It's okay, I am walking in a hurry, all wrong."

The other party was the first to admit his mistake, and Chen Xing naturally had to treat each other with courtesy.

The handsome young man showed a sunny smile, nodded to Chen Xing again, and left.

At this time, Chen Xing noticed that the other party was carrying a black suitcase. As the other party left, the strange resonance gradually disappeared.

He couldn't help frowning. In order to confirm his thoughts, he walked into the store quickly, took out the photo of the little skull, and asked the old man who was wiping the antiquities behind the counter.

"Oh, sorry, this soul boy's skull was just bought."

"Yes, that's right, it's the young man who just went out. He has a lot of hands. He bought several pieces from me at once..."

Without saying anything, Chen Xing chased him out immediately. Less than a minute had passed, and the young man hadn't walked far. Chen Xing quickened his pace and soon caught up with the opponent near the white dragon statue.

"Hello, sir, what can I do for you?" The stopped young man responded politely.

"It's like this..." Chen Xing glanced at the other person's suitcase and said, "My request may be a bit presumptuous..." He said as he took out the photo of the little skull, "Introduce myself, I am the Red Dragon Principality. The mayor of Orchid Town, Chen Erliu, came this time for this little thing, but it seems that you bought it."

The young man’s gaze stayed on the photo for a few seconds, and then replied after repeated confirmation, “I’m sorry to disappoint you. I did buy this antique, just ten minutes ago.”

"Can you, can you let me see..." Chen Xing explained before waiting for the other person to speak, "I am a decent nobleman, and I don't have any crooked thoughts. I just want to see if I have a fate with him. "

Hearing Chen Xing’s request, the young man did not hesitate. He squatted down and opened the suitcase. He introduced himself, "My name is Lanster Mordrek, Lord Mayor, you can call me Lanster directly. ."

The friendliness and trust of the other party surprised Chen Xing. After all, this is something worth millions of gold coins. Although this is a satellite signal coverage area, it is not without people who go crazy and take risks.

"Lanster, thank you." Chen Xing said seriously. In any case, the trust of the other party must be thanked.

"Is this what you want to see?"

Lanster lifted the red cloth wrapped outside, revealing Bai Shengsheng's skull.

At the moment his eyes touched, Chen Xing felt an unspeakable intimacy, as if he had met a friend in the vast sea of ​​people, and the resonance from his soul was extremely strong. In just an instant, the two psychic energies completed the fusion, like salt falling into the water, they could no longer distinguish each other.

"It's it, it's it!"

Chen Xing couldn't help the surprise on his face. After these days of disappointment, I finally met a strong resonance, unable to control his emotions for a while, and called out what was in his heart.

He held it in his hands, a little bit unable to put it down, and said, "This friend, no, brother, it's not convenient to transfer this thing to me. It's easy to say how much money." He looked left and right, a little bit

Can't put it down.

"I'm sorry, Lord Mayor, this is what our prince pointed out. I need to ask him what he can do." Lanster bowed and said, with an apologetic face on his face.

"Who is your son?" Chen Xing asked.

"Our son's surname is blue, and the blue is blue. He is from the Eastern Continent and lives here." Lanster replied.

"Can I see this Young Master Lan?" Chen Xing asked again. At this time, he had calmed down. To have such a graceful attendant, the identity of the master is definitely not simple.

"Yes, but certain conditions need to be met." Lanster bowed again, humble and polite, but with a kind of indifference that refused to others.

"What conditions?" Chen Xing asked.

"If the adults can enter the top eight in the martial arts competition three days later, they can enter the White Dragon Palace and meet our son in person."

"Fighting Contest?" Chen Xing frowned. There are indeed many similar games in this world, but they are mostly found in underground casinos.

Seeing the doubts in Chen Xing’s eyes, Lanster immediately explained, “Our son wants to get to know the future powerhouses on the Red Earth Continent in this way, and the winner will receive a generous reward.”

"I sensed the psychic fluctuations of the guard level strong in you. The conditions for the competition are below the quasi-lord level, and you fully meet it."

"You mean, I can get this as long as I participate in the competition and enter the top eight?" Chen Xing asked.

"This is one of the prizes of the competition. If it is not the start of the competition and there is no time to replace the prizes, I am willing to convey your needs to our son. Our son has a bold personality, maybe I will give it to you directly. Now I can only exchange one. This way, I am very sorry for the trouble to you." Lanster bowed and apologized.

Chen Xing nodded, expressing his understanding, and then asked, "The condition for the competition is below the quasi-lord level. In other words, the highest level of the competition is the guard level. Can this be understood?"

"Yes, Lord Mayor, what our son wants to get acquainted with is not the strong now, but the strong in the future."

After reconfirming, Chen Xing probably understood the intentions of the "boy blue". To put it bluntly, it is to find good seedlings in advance to attract and invest. Compared with those who have already achieved achievements, those who are still developing are more likely to be satisfied.

"Well, I'll go to the competition, I believe I have a chance to get the ranking, but before that..." Chen Xing emphasized, "Please tell your son and leave this thing to me."

"This..." Lanster hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but was embarrassed to say it.

"What's wrong, isn't it convenient?" Chen Xing asked.

"According to the rules of the game, if there is no repeated demand in the quarterfinals, it is yours, but if someone like you wants to get it, you must decide the outcome between you and the winner."

"I see, no one can grab it, and if someone grabs it, all opponents must be defeated." Chen Xing repeated, and Lanster nodded in agreement.

After a while, Chen Xing followed Lanster's instructions and arrived at the registration point at the main entrance of the White Dragon Palace.

A banner is hung with a balloon on the top-Unparalleled Fighting Competition in the World.

There is a big sign at the registration point with the entry conditions written on it. Generally speaking, it is: large guard or below combat strength, no age limit, no gender limit, weapons and imperial spirits are not allowed in the competition, and can only rely on fists and feet to fight.

There was a circle of people outside, with tall and sturdy bald heads wearing leather vests

The brawny, the handsome aristocratic teenagers, the mercenaries in strong costumes, the girls in boxing gloves, and the tough old men who are more than seventy years old, all eager to try, and the registration atmosphere is very enthusiastic.

"Sora, who is this Young Master Blue?" Before signing up, Chen Xing asked the mastermind about the identity of the organizer.

[It is not recommended to obtain the other party's information]

"Why?" Chen Xing asked strangely. This is Sola's first objection to his request. Could there be someone with higher authority than him?

[There are two reasons...]

[First reason, top secret]

[According to the highest law formulated by the Human Survival Committee, the clearnet system must not excessively interfere with human society, but any major privacy involving a wide range of political changes is classified as the highest level of confidentiality, and even the king-level powerhouse cannot access it]

[The second reason, unknown danger]

[According to the records of the database, your investigator is likely to have the same abilities as you, and can predict the existence of danger to a certain extent. If you know the secret of the other party, you will bring a strong sense of crisis to the other party when you meet, which will trigger hostility and even assassination]

[If the owner insists on exploring to the end, according to the previous agreement, Sora will provide detailed information]

[Please choose whether to obtain information, yes/no? ]

Chen Xing hesitated again and again, and finally clicked "No" and listened to Sola's suggestion.

If the other party really has a "dangerous perception", or even a higher level of "extraordinary perception", then he had better stay away.

Heita scholars believe that the ability to foresee is that the person can feel the "power of time and space."

In their point of view, there is an invisible force that drives the movement and changes of all things. This force is called the "source force", also known as the "source force".

Perceiving the source of power, we can predict the short-term future through the laws of the movement of all things, thereby avoiding danger.

If it is like Sola said, after he gains the secrets of the other party, it will trigger a strong sense of crisis.

The status of the opponent seems to be very high, he has made enough enemies, but he doesn't want to make new ones. Anyway, his purpose was only the skull of the unknown humanoid creature, and he would withdraw it as soon as he got it. There was no need for a little curiosity.

Even if the other party's true identity involves a wide range of political changes, what does it have to do with the mayor of this fringe town?

Just take care of your own one-acre three-quarters of land. If you have spare time, it is better to study more profitable businesses.

Eating a box lunch of $3.50 and worrying about national affairs, why bother?

"I want to register, what information do I need to provide?" Chen Xing squeezed forward and asked.

"Do you dare to sign up for your small body?" a strong man next to him laughed.

Chen Xing ignored the other party, but looked at the registration staff at the registration point. There is never a lack of stupid people in this world, and there is no need to let him teach every time.

"Huh, it's pretty cool!" The strong man sneered, "You better pray not to meet me in the game, otherwise I will unscrew your head as a stool."

"Very well, I remember what you said." Chen Xing turned around and said lightly.

For a moment, the brawny man felt tremendous pressure, and the other's gaze seemed to be a wolf staring at its prey. Perhaps it was an illusion, he shook his head, leaving a harsh sentence "you wait", and then walked away.
