Chapter 342: Chapter 331: Not So Simple (Second Update) Chapter 342: Chapter 331: Not So Simple (Second Update) Wan Xiang successfully passed the leaping nuclear…or the assessnt and approval of everyone present, and Jiang Qiao rightfully coaxed Wan Xiang and her sister, Self-hanging, into the guild of Naless.
As the guild leader, Jiang Qiao was giving the two sisters a life consultation.
“First off, you definitely can’t fall behind in your university entrance exam revisions,” Jiang Qiao started with a motherly statent, which made Self-hanging do a double-take. “Is Xiao Wan a science student? I studied science too, although I’ve forgotten everything from high school. There are so science whizzes in the guild, and they can help her review during the next instance break.”
“Wait wait wait… President…”
It was Self-hanging’s first ti joining a guild in Holy Spirit World, so she was still not used to addressing Jiang Qiao as President, but the Naless guild had an ID called Fun Gaming, which was enough to convince her to join.
“What’s the matter?”
Jiang Qiao was making plans for Wan Xiang over the next few days. The high school exams were less than half a month away, which Jiang Qiao was aware of. The holographic ga exhibition was happening in four days. In the anti, they needed to upgrade Wan Xiang’s other equipnt and have her synchronize with the strategy team.
“I thought you were going to say sothing like, ‘Your sister is so talented, let her be a professional player! College can’t compare to going pro!'” Self-hanging mimicked Jiang Qiao’s tone when she said this.
“Is that what you think? Why wouldn’t she go to college if she has the opportunity? Your sister’s grades are so good, and even if she really wants to go pro, why not aim for both?” Jiang Qiao retorted.
“All of it!” Wan Xiang chid in from the side.
“Xiao Wan, do you really want to go pro?” Self-hanging was shocked by Wan Xiang’s response.
But Wan Xiang shook her head vigorously, telling her sister in this way that she had no interest in going pro, while also emphasizing, “I want to go to a public university!”
“That’s right. I just want your sister to participate in a PVE instance battle at the holographic projection show in three days, which conveniently is on a Sunday, and it won’t take up much ti,” Jiang Qiao said.
“But, President, I’ve seen that this holographic projection show will be globally broadcasted and it’s going to be on major news. Xiao Wan, um… she… will use her real appearance, and… her real na, just without the surna, you know?” Self-hanging spoke hesitantly, not sure whether to trust Jiang Qiao.
But Jiang Qiao could be friends with a public figure like Mo Shigui, who even gifted her sister a third of a house. Even if it was for financial gain, it wasn’t likely to be an upfront investnt so significant.
“Are you afraid her parents will find out?” At this mont, Jiang Qiao also noticed that Wan Xiang had black hair and eyes and sported a typical high school girl’s ponytail. If Wan Xiang were to dress in a high school uniform, there would be no inconsistency.
The only exception would be if she was holding the sniper rifle in her hands.
Self-hanging nodded incessantly, just the opposite of her sister.
“There are plenty of headgear costus in this ga that can cover appearances, like this one, this one, and this one.” Jiang Qiao took out an owl headgear, a rainbow unicorn headgear, and a giraffe headgear and placed them on the table. “With the ID, I don’t think there should be any associations.”
“Just like this.” However, Wan Xiang rejected Jiang Qiao’s suggestion to help her get headgear costus. “Just like this… go on TV.”
“Xiao Wan!”
Self-hanging’s voice was almost distorted. This sister of hers, in the midst of her rebellious phase, wanted to use this thod… to rebel against her own mother. But little did she know that as soon as Wan Xiang’s family saw her on TV… with a sniper rifle battling monsters, they would cut off Self-hanging’s allowance imdiately!
“If your real appearance is recognized on TV, it might cause a lot of trouble for your future, you… sure?”
Jiang Qiao couldn’t really restrict her in this regard. Even if he forced her to wear a headpiece, if she wanted to appear on TV with her real face, Jiang Qiao couldn’t stop her, even masking her face would be useless.
“Mm.” Wan Xiang indicated she had no issues.
“No! Absolutely not…” Self-hanging was about to persist with Jiang Qiao when her figure suddenly vanished from beside Wan Xiang.
“My sister’s ti to log off has arrived,” Wan Xiang said.
Jiang Qiao glanced at the ti. It was already half past nine in the evening, and using dinner as an excuse for being out, it was likely that her mother would soon call to check where exactly she was.
“I’ll ask you one more ti, this holographic projection show isn’t just so simple ga exhibition. Not only fans of Holy Spirit World will watch, but many people from your father’s line of work will be there as well. If you perform brilliantly in the competition, it could change your life,” Jiang Qiao was also concerned about the girl using her real appearance and na… showing up at the holographic ga exhibition could pose so issues.
But Wan Xiang was still stubborn, nodding her head as if to say, ‘If I can’t show my face, I quit!’
“Alright, go ho with your sister for now. I’ll arrange for you to enter the instance at five tomorrow afternoon.”
Jiang Qiao didn’t understand why Wan Xiang was so adamant about appearing on television, but she was eighteen years old and had her own considerations, so it wasn’t his place to interfere.
“Goodbye, President.” Holding the legendary sniper rifle in one hand and waving at Jiang Qiao with the other, Wan Xiang’s figure then vanished in front of him.
At that mont, Jiang Qiao glanced behind himself. Mo Shigui had already led the strategy group to Black Ash Island to familiarize themselves with the instance, while Zhao Mingwei was alone at the base, training Yelena in her psychic energy.
Jiang Qiao then teleported himself directly to the lord’s quarters of the instance without anyone noticing.
In the quarters, Queen i was looking at a script book Jiang Qiao had given her, muttering sothing.
“How’s the practice going?”
Jiang Qiao approached Queen i, who had just finished reading through the script book. She was still struggling with so of the awkward phrases.
“I’ve morized most of it… Agent, the upcoming battle with Black Ash, do we really not need to intervene?” Queen i had learned just yesterday that one of her generals, Black Ash, had appeared on Black Ash Island.
He erged as a foe massacring the Holy Spirits, which made Queen i consider negotiating with him.
But Jiang Qiao refused.
“Agent Black Ash was once as powerful as I was and he is also Ulysses’s ntor… Your Holy Spirits, I’m afraid, cannot restrain him,” Lion Heart Knight also appeared at that mont, urging Jiang Qiao to let them confront Black Ash Knight.
“If the Holy Spirits are defeated, then it will be your turn to step in, but now… the most important thing is your speech,” he told Queen i.
Jiang Qiao always had a backup plan, and the five Knights were one of those plans. Yet, compared to dealing with Black Ash Knight, Jiang Qiao was more concerned about Queen i’s progress in practicing the speech.
The holographic exhibition was an opportunity for major gaming companies to showcase trailers and make big promises about their new releases, including sneak peeks of various previews and plans for future updates.
And the Holy Spirits were also expected to make a big commitnt, but this one went beyond the scope of a ga.
The officials from Tiangong discussed with Tiangong-13 about the Holy Spirit Fund and the intent to build virtual worlds when they decided to include Tiangong-13 in the exhibition.
The officials had co to realize that Tiangong-13 might not be just a simple AI.
Fortunately for Jiang Qiao, he managed to mislead the officials into believing that they had control over Tiangong-13, and they expressed strong support and even plans for promotion of the interactivity between the virtual and the real worlds.
The only dissatisfaction was that, at this stage, there were too few gaming qualifications provided by the Holy Spirits.
The Holy Spirits as a realm where the real and ga worlds blend, the officials had recognized that the ga was capable of more than just simple leveling and monster hunting, but also various engineering trials and other tests.
Anyway, Jiang Qiao sumd up the big promises he needed to make at the holographic ga exhibition. First, a trading system between the virtual and real worlds would be promoted. The Holy Spirit Cloud Ga, this AR version, would also be launched. By then, those who don’t have Holy Spirit testing qualifications could explore the bustling world of Holy Spirit World as cloud players.
Second, there was… Those things Jiang Qiao jokingly ntioned about introducing academic disciplines related to Holy Spirits in universities may actually co true.
Jiang Qiao had noticed one or two players in the servers studying those… magical minerals on Biland Island, basically the various properties and effects of minerals that don’t exist on Earth.
All this Jiang Qiao wasn’t sure was good or bad, but one thing was certain, Holy Spirit World was evolving from a simple VR ga into mankind’s second revolutionary world.
