Chapter 354: Chapter 343 Curtain Falls and Begins (1st Update) Chapter 354: Chapter 343 Curtain Falls and Begins (1st Update) Jiang Qiao had just finished speaking, and with his support, Wan Xiang also appeared much more confident, at least she could stand up straight in front of her own father.
But the next mont, Jiang Qiao gently patted Wan Xiang on the back.
“I’ve said all I wanted to say, Wan, it’s ti for you to go ho and study with your father, you need to work hard for the college entrance exam next month.”
“Eh?”
Wan Feng took a small step forward, sowhat surprised as she turned to look back at Jiang Qiao, perhaps thinking that Jiang Qiao would confront her father to the end.
“Haven’t I said before? With your current grades, getting into a good university and playing ‘Spirit’ are not in conflict, there’s no need to give up one for the other, we’ll et again in ‘Spirit’ during the sumr holiday,” Jiang Qiao said.
Wan Xiang let out a troubled noise like ‘Uh oh…’ but eventually, as if sulking, obediently followed her father.
The man glanced back at Jiang Qiao as he was taking Wan Xiang away and then asked…
“Do you really think playing gas is helpful for the developnt of this country?” the man asked a very broad question, but it was also his concern.
Older generations think playing video gas is a waste of potential because, on one hand, they believe that playing video gas simply doesn’t make money, but this man looked further ahead, now aware that the financial system of ‘Spirit’ had begun to blend with reality.
Originally, only the top-tier players in other online gas could beco truly wealthy, but now even an ordinary player in ‘Spirit’ can support themselves by playing, even earning a salary much higher than their original jobs.
But if more and more people play ‘Spirit’, what about the real world’s labor force and developnt? This is an old question, but as the number of ‘Spirit’ players increases, it will beco a very real societal issue.
When playing gas can make money, who would still want to work?
“Such a philosophical question? Uh… society is developing, and now many low-cost labor jobs have been replaced by machinery, so I guess it’s not wrong to say that,”
If Jiang Qiao rembered correctly, a small portion of restaurants has already turned into self-service ones without staff, and a similar thing can be said for other job positions in society.
But it was also a very general answer; with only 130,000 players, the number of ‘Spirit’ players couldn’t possibly lead to the situation the man was worried about.
“Captain Lin, let answer that question,” Silver General popped up out of nowhere, seemingly recognizing the man in the security uniform, and then said, “Let give a simple example, Captain Lin. You must have used VR equipnt for training before, nowadays many engineering and even experintal projects use computers for simulation, ‘Spirit’ could replace all the simulation programs in the world, including engineering simulations.”
The man frowned slightly, as if he didn’t quite understand Silver General’s point, but eventually, led away by his daughter, he left the scene first.
“Boss, is the building system and physics engine in ‘Spirit’ really the sa as reality? Little Feather starts building houses from the rooftop,” Black Ash remarked sarcastically after hearing Silver General’s words, “And when I shoot, I can use the recoil of the gun to fly far away!”
Black Ash could cite a multitude of examples where the physics engine of ‘Spirit’ could anger Newton enough to make him flip his coffin lid.
“What if I told you that there are two physics engines in ‘Spirit’? One identical to reality, and the other prepared for gaplay. After a while, there might be universities specially offering courses related to ‘Spirit,'”
Silver General looked towards Queen i, who was drawing big and sweet pies on the field, this pie wasn’t just aid at the players, but at all of humanity.
“Just hope that ‘Spirit’ can hold its own and give out more playing qualifications.”
It’s doing great! A new batch is about to open soon!
Jiang Qiao had already received a ssage sent by the five Knights that the Black Ash Knight had regained his sanity, and the… fragnt of the Divine Fragnt had been acquired. With this shard, Jiang Qiao should be able to open another wave of play privileges.
Queen i’s sche finally concluded perfectly under the cheer of Thorn and an array of Divine Chosen Ones.
“Do you think Queen i is played by a staff mber or is a predetermined artificial AI performance?” Sir Silver suddenly asked everyone this intriguing question amid applause.
But no one answered Sir Silver, because after the curtain call, Zhao Mingwei had already fallen deep into sleep. Under Mo Shigui’s direction, a group of professional players lifted Zhao Mingwei onto an ambulance.
“Old Song, why do I feel that when he wakes up, he’ll jump out of the hospital bed and run to an internet cafe?” Black Pot Cooking at asked while watching Zhao Mingwei being loaded into the ambulance.
“He won’t… because Divine Spirit is going under maintenance in two hours,” Mo Shigui checked the ssage on his phone from the Divine Spirit’s official website and said, “The maintenance will last for twelve hours.”
“Twelve hours of maintenance! And in the middle of the day? What are the ga’s officials thinking!” complained soone from the players who ca along.
“Go to the internet cafe to log in now?”
The suggestion from that little genius received approval from a crowd of people, while Jiang Qiao stood still, watching the ambulance and a group of players who were rushing to log in two hours before the maintenance to farm monsters.
Jiang Qiao was now worried about Zhao Mingwei’s condition. His injuries might not only be physical but also spiritual. Although not fatal, there could still be so side effects.
While Jiang Qiao could heal physical injuries, he was powerless against soul injuries, even with the power of the Devouring God. But Zhao Mingwei was recovering fast… Jiang Qiao’s first task now was to ‘digest’ the Black Ash Knight.
………
Instance Lord’s suite.
“You’re not fooling , how did such a big Black Ash Knight turn into a… furball?”
Jiang Qiao had arrived at the Instance Lord’s suite in search of the Black Ash Knight; however, the imposing figure of the Black Ash Knight that had been in the arena was nowhere to be seen, leaving behind only a fist-sized… lump of coal.
This lump of coal resembled the soot spirit from Spirited Away, with an all-black body and a pair of eyes scanning around.
“Agent, General Black Ash’s body has decayed over the years; this is the last part sustaining his existence. Don’t worry, Black Ash’s thoughts and mories have recovered. Just let him absorb enough energy, and he will fully recover,” Knight Lion Heart seriously told Jiang Qiao.
“Fully recover?”
Jiang Qiao glanced again at the black coal lump on the table, which calmly picked up a pancake from the table and started munching on it. Its body was essentially its mouth, and it seed to have quite the appetite, gobbling up the pancake crisply in two bites.
“Sigel? Is he the current proxy of Devouring God?” After eating the pancake, the coal lump finally got to the point.
Contrary to its cute appearance, its voice sounded unusually deep and hoarse, resembling that of an old man.
From his interaction with Knight Lion Heart, it seed that this Black Ash Knight was of the sa generation as Knight Lion Heart.
“He is a very capable proxy. Queen i also highly trusts this proxy. Black Ash, you can tell him anything directly,” Knight Lion Heart praised Jiang Qiao generously while describing him.
“Let think…” The coal lump picked up a “Modern Life Encyclopedia” handed to it by Knight Lion Heart, flipped through a few pages, found an appropriate description, cleared its throat, and said, “Agent, have you ever thought about poaching gods?”
