The teenager asked, “Why did you help me?”Sienna did not answer his question.She squatted down, picked up a roasted sweet potato from the ground and said lightly, “It’s not too much for me to take this as a thank you gift, right?”Having said that, she got into a taxi that was parked by the side of the road and left.The taillights from the car disappeared into the empty street. The teenager looked at the roasted sweet potatoes that had rolled all over the ground, then remembered the ‘thank you’ that Sienna had taken away. For the first time ever, he felt his chest being filled with various mixed emotions. He did not have such emotions when he was getting beaten up on the ground to the point where his whole body was bruised and swollen.He did not have such emotions when he lost all faith in this gloomy and obscure life. However, he felt a lump rising in his throat as he felt respected. He was being treated as an equal.The middle-aged woman picked up the stall as she ask
Monki had a very fast reaction, so he replied immediately, “This is called a virtual world! The Universal Atrium is the world’s best ultra-modern technology experience hall! It allows you to be immersed in such experiences! What you see is not a pre-recorded film but the experiencer currently experiencing a scene that is even more realistic than what you see in movies!”Hunter chimed in and nodded. “That’s right!”However, after they had finished speaking, the only viewer also left the live broadcast room. Monki let out a long sigh and was prepared to stop the live broadcast with resentment. He also sighed while operating and said, “Do you think it’s because I’m not good-looking? I’m obviously also a pretty charming older brother with a handsome face.”Unexpectedly, the viewer who had commented just now came back.Monki was excited, and he hurriedly retracted the operation to turn off the live broadcast. He then asked enthusiastically and eagerly, “Dear, do you want to come and p
There was not a single experiencer that day.The area was completely deserted. Monki yawned sleepily and looked up again to find two cars parked in front of the shop. An old man with glasses got out of the car, and five nerdy-looking students followed behind the old man.They walked toward the Universal Atrium after they had gotten out of the car with an air of arrogance and majesty. From their expressions, it seemed as though they were joined in opposition to the same adversary. Monki froze for a moment and was then instantly re-energized. That was right!The old man at the lead must be the old professor who had left a message in his live broadcast yesterday, saying that he was coming to expose the counterfeit!“Brothers, there are guests. Come out to receive them!”Monki turned back and shouted, then picked up his cell phone to send Sienna a text message.‘Boss, the person who’s here to expose the counterfeit… I mean, the professor is here!’After sending this message, M
The challenge scene in the virtual world that Monki had chosen for them was called the World of Ice and Snow. As the name implied, they would need to face various challenges in the icy scene.Monki smiled, and he was even gloating a little.The moment he pressed the start button, the cabin hatches of the holographic game pods closed slowly. The students pursed their lips, and one of them said, “Pfft. They really have pretty good swindling skills.”In the next second.It was completely dark before them, and when they opened their eyes again, they were surrounded by a vast expanse of white all around them. There were glaciers and snow-capped mountains everywhere. Cold wind started blowing, whistling harshly in their ears, and they could feel the cold air pierce into their bones!The five students were all stunned!When had they ever seen such a scene? At this moment, they were all freezing and shivering, and there was thick white mist when they spoke and breathed. “Damn it!
They were all still shivering when the door of the holographic game pods opened up. It was as if the snow was still falling on them, and the temperature that was cold to the extreme still existed. Professor Lawrence had been observing the entire process of them being in the virtual world through the screen.Professor Lawrence was furious. He looked at his students and roared resentfully, “Shame on you! This child’s play of a thing has scared all of you to such an extent?”The students cried out in injustice. “Professor, it’s really terrifying! I’ve never been so afraid even when I was playing 5D games. Although there can also be immersive effects when wearing VR goggles, it’s nowhere near this effect that we’ve just experienced. It was just like the real world!”“That’s right, Professor! You should come and experience it for yourself if you don’t believe us. We really tried our best!”“Pfft.” Professor Lawrence snorted coldly. His temper flared up, and he was very stubborn as h
Sienna smiled, then personally pushed a huge door in the Universal Atrium open.There were countless LCD panels that looked like mirrors inside. They had been assembled into a huge curtain with magical techniques, and the curtain looked very high-tech and was particularly amazing!“Please go ahead, Professor.”Sienna made an inviting gesture. Professor Lawrence snorted coldly and walked in with his head held high.“Tell me, what do you intend to show me?”Sienna did not answer. She snapped her fingers, and in the next second, all the lights in the mirror projection hall went out. When the lights were turned on again, a hunched figure appeared on the huge screen.It was an old woman with gray hair. The old woman had a ruddy expression, and she was in high spirits. She also had a red scarf tied around her neck. Professor Lawrence was initially sneering, but he was startled when he saw the person who had appeared on the screen.This was because it was his wife. His wife was s
The group got into their cars and left the Universal Atrium.Monki was slightly confused, and he could not help but poke Hunter’s arm and ask, “What did the old professor mean when he bowed to us?”“I guess he was apologizing to us,” Hunter said.Monki’s mood was finally soothed. He was extremely furious because the old professor refused to listen to him no matter how reasonable he was. It was really depressing. “Boss, you’re still the most amazing!” Monki was extremely excited as he approached Sienna excitedly. He gave her a thumbs up as he flattered her, “Boss, you’re still the most amazing. You actually managed to take care of that stubborn and difficult old professor with just one move!”Sienna was too lazy to pay any attention to him. Speaking of which, she was also reluctant to expose other people’s pain, but it seemed that she had managed to dissipate the obsession in Professor Lawrence’s heart. Perhaps, this was the significance of the mirror projection.Sienna sat
Sienna’s words were very unceremonious and rude.A trace of grievance instantly appeared on Clara’s pure and beautiful face. She bit her lip and explained, “Sienna, how could you say that? I’m just doing this for your own good. That thing is unclean to begin with.”“There are a lot of unclean things.” Sienna raised her eyes, glanced at Clara, and said with a half-hearted smile, “Aren’t you one of them?”Clara’s face turned pale in an instant, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes. Quentin could not stand it any longer, so he stood in front of Clara directly and reprimanded Sienna. “That’s enough! What’s wrong with Clara showing concern for you? You’re so ignorant that it’s utterly unbelievable!”Sienna was speechless. Sienna laughed out of anger as she replied, “I really am ignorant. So, I hope that you two can stay as far away from me as possible. Don’t act like two foolish critics who just want to point fingers at others. You guys are so nosy, you’re really model worker r
