He deliberately concealed the content related to memetic pollution and the other world. After all, such things are too complicated to explain, and if not handled properly, the memetic pollution may become even worse.
We can’t let the lovely little March be polluted any further!
After hearing this, San Yueqi's eyes lit up instantly and he exclaimed excitedly: "Wow! Such an amazing technology! It sounds so fun! I thought only the girl from the Star Core Hunter had this technology, but I didn't expect that the company also has it!"
She hugged Bai Qiong's arm and shook it coquettishly, "Bai Qiong, Bai Qiong, I want to go too! Take me with you!"
Bai Qiong looked at San Yueqi's enthusiastic look, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he took her soft little hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go together!"
Is there anything more fun than adventuring in the Star Railway World with your girlfriend?
Moreover, in the original plot, it was Sanyueqi who accompanied the protagonist, catching Ether Spirits all the way, passing the gym, and heading towards the championship.
The two left the train car hand in hand.
Belloberg, Rivettown.
San Yueqi glanced at the hurried crowd and pointed at a company employee who was wearing a uniform and looking around at a street corner and said, "Bai Qiong, do you think that guy in uniform with shifty eyes is the one who sent you the message?"
March 7's crisp voice interrupted Bai Qiong's thoughts.
Bai Qiong looked in the direction of March Seven's finger, and sure enough, in the crowd, a blond young man wearing a Rivet Town Company uniform was holding a cell phone and looking around, as if he was looking for someone.
"It should be him."
Bai Qiong nodded at San Yueqi, picked up his phone, and was about to send a message to the other party to confirm.
Unexpectedly, before he could make any move, the young man in uniform seemed to have suddenly found his target. His eyes lit up and he quickly walked towards Bai Qiong and San Yue Qi.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Bai Qiong? I'm Wilder!"
The young man walked up to Bai Qiong, his face immediately filled with a warm smile, and he said with a slightly excited tone, "It doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, but I recognized you at first sight! Your photo has been widely circulated in our strategic investment department. After seeing you today, you look even more handsome than in the photo!"
The corner of Bai Qiong's mouth twitched slightly.
Strategic Investment Department? Widely circulated?
Although Bai Qiong had vaguely known from Scott's mouth last time, he had now been listed as a key target of attention within the Beloberg Interstellar Peace Company.
However, being recognized so enthusiastically and praised for being "handsome" in person still made him feel a little embarrassed, even a little... socially dead.
He waved his hand, trying to make his expression look more natural, and said, "Forget the polite words, let's talk about what you mentioned in the text message. What exactly is that "Star Wars Victory Celebration"? "
Wilder didn't seem to notice Bai Qiong's embarrassment, and continued to explain enthusiastically: "You asked a really good question! This celebration is actually a large-scale competitive event specially held by the "Ether Front Competition Association" at the end of each season for players from all over the universe to give back to the majority of players!"
He paused, as if to emphasize the special nature of this celebration, and added: "According to the original plan, this celebration should have been held offline with large-scale competitions and carnival activities. However, as you know, the star core is now blocking interstellar passages, causing many interstellar routes to be affected. Therefore, in order to ensure that all players can participate smoothly, the association temporarily changed this celebration to an online viewing mode."
"Online spectator mode?"
Sanyueqi tilted his head and asked in confusion, "Since we are watching the game online, why do we need to come here?"
"No, no, no! Miss, you misunderstood!"
Wilder waved his hands and explained, "Although the majority of the audience will watch the game online, in order to cater to those enthusiastic audiences who insist on going to the scene to experience the atmosphere of the celebration, our company has specially applied to set up a small offline venue in Beloberg to provide services specifically for the audience!"
He pointed to the bustling crowd around him and said proudly: "Look, although it is a temporary venue, the atmosphere is still very warm! Moreover, we have prepared a variety of offline activities to ensure that every audience present will have a great time!"
Wilder said this and pointed to a huge electronic screen not far away, on which was scrolling the game trailer of "Aether Front" and various event previews.
"Collect, fight, develop, upgrade"
This is the core gameplay and slogan of our "Ether Front"!"
Wilder pointed at the slogan scrolling on the screen and said excitedly, "How about it? Doesn't it sound exciting?!"
Sanyueqi looked at the creatures on the screen with different shapes and full of science fiction, his eyes flashing with excitement, and nodded repeatedly, saying: "Yeah! It does sound interesting! That... Ether Front, how do you play it? Where can I play this game?"
"Haha, you are Miss March 7, right? It seems that you are also very interested in our game!"
After hearing what March Seven said, Wilder said even more enthusiastically, "Without further delay, since both of you are interested in "Ether Front", I will take you to the celebration service hall first. You can register a game account there and start your own journey on the Ether Front!"
He made a "please" gesture, signaling Bai Qiong and San Yueqi to follow him, "Follow me, this way please! The celebration service hall is not far ahead!"
Bai Qiong and San Yueqi looked at each other and saw anticipation and curiosity in each other's eyes.
"Then please lead the way."
Bai Qiong nodded to the young man, then took March Seven's hand and followed Wilder into the depths of Rivet Town.
Old weapons testing ground.
The celebration service hall was hung with colorful flags and banners everywhere. Although a faint smell of rust could still be smelled, it could not suppress the cheerful atmosphere on the scene.
Various peculiarly shaped stalls and decorations dotted around make this place look more like a lively carnival venue.
Sanyueqi looked around curiously, his eyes full of excitement, "Here...wait, this place looks familiar..."
She stopped and looked around, as if trying to remember something.
"Ah! I remember now!"
Sanyueqi suddenly exclaimed and clapped his hands, "Isn't this the arsenal that Miss Topa found before? We almost had a fight with her there. The situation at that time scared me to death!" "It's here for sure."
Bai Qiong nodded, and looked at Wilder with a hint of understanding in his eyes, "I didn't expect this place to change so much.
Of course he knew that the old weapons factory had been renovated, but compared to what it looked like in the game, the renovation here was more complete and thorough.
If he hadn't known the plot in advance, he would never have thought that this was the abandoned arsenal.
"Haha, you two have been here before? It seems like we are destined to meet!"
Wilder enthusiastically explained: "Since the debt problem was successfully resolved, Beloberg and the company have established a good cooperative relationship. The company is very optimistic about the future potential of Yalilo-VI, so it decided to increase its investment here. This old weapons test site is the first important project of our cooperation!"
He paused, with a hint of pride in his tone. Of course, the "weapons testing ground" is a thing of the past.
Now this is the central venue of the "Star Battle Celebration"!
Chapter 6.8: Departure to the Echo Corridor! (K)
The three of them looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a tuxedo, with silver hair and a strange mask.
Wilder's eyes lit up and he exclaimed in surprise: "Huh? That's not...
He walked forward quickly, with a hint of excitement in his tone, "Mr. Giovanni! Is that you?"
The man called Giovanni turned around, his mask hiding his expression, but his voice was full of joy: "Hmm?"
He looked at Wilder and laughed, "Ha, Wilder! I was wondering where you were.
He turned his gaze to Bai Qiong and San Yue Qi, bowed slightly, his posture elegant, and his tone became more enthusiastic: "You actually brought a handsome man and this beautiful lady with you! Welcome to my arena! If I'm not mistaken, you two are Bai Qiong and San Yue Qi from the Starry Sky Train, right?"
Sanyueqi blinked and asked curiously: "How do you know our names?"
Giovanni let out a deep laugh. "It doesn't matter, my friend. What matters is that we met here!"
He straightened up and began to introduce himself. "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Giovanni di Giorgio da Epseron. I am a small private businessman from Epseron. I am the sole sponsor of this "Star Battle Celebration". I hope you will take good care of me."
March Seven scratched his head and muttered, "Thank you for introducing yourself, Giovanni Di Joe... Mr. Something."
She looked Giovanni up and down, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Why did you come to such a small place?" "You sound like a big shot, why are you still here?"
Seeing this, Bai Qiong quickly reached out and gently covered San Yueqi's mouth, and whispered: "How rude, San Yue."
Giovanni waved his hands and laughed nonchalantly, "Hahaha, it's harmless, it's harmless! On the contrary, I really like Miss March's straightforward character."
He cleared his throat and continued: "Next, let me answer Miss March's question. As you can see, the "Interstellar Victory Celebration" will be held on this beautiful ice planet.
"As the full sponsor of this event, it is only natural for me to come to the competition venue to check the operating conditions."
He slightly turned sideways, his eyes moving between Bai Qiong and San Yue Qi, "Besides, I also want to get to know the players in the competition, and you two, doing business in this vast universe, you can never have too many friends.
"If you two are willing to honor me by calling me a friend, it would be my great honor!"
San Yue Qi broke free from Bai Qiong's hand and whispered in Bai Qiong's ear: "Hmm...Bai Qiong, this guy is wearing a mask and looks weird. I always feel that there is some conspiracy behind this game, right?"
Bai Qiong put his index finger against Sanyueqi's mouth and said, "Don't talk nonsense! Little Sanyue, I think there is nothing wrong with Mr. Giovanni."
At this time, Bai Qiong had already remembered this NPC. This was Giovanni, the behind-the-scenes organizer of "Ether Front", and also a fateful traveler walking on the road of "joy".
But in the original plot, he really didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
Giovanni still heard March Seven's whisper, but he didn't care and laughed heartily: "Hahaha, being too suspicious is not good for your health. Don't worry, I'm just keen on enjoying the fun of the game, and I want to see the players compete with each other and work together for this."
At this point, he lowered his head slightly, and his tone became serious, "I can promise you - I swear on my honor and this mask!"
Bai Qiong looked at Giovanni with a calm and deep gaze, and said slowly: "I believe you too, Mr. Giovanni."
At this time, Wilder came over with two small coins and said with a smile: "You two, your ether coins are also ready."
He handed the ether coins to Bai Qiong and San Yue Qi for safekeeping. "This is a must for playing the Ether Front. Please..."
Bai Qiong took the ether coin. It was cold to the touch, with exquisite patterns carved on it, and faintly emitting some kind of energy fluctuations.
March 7th curiously played with the ether coin and asked, "Wild, what is the use of this ether coin?"
Wilder patiently explained: "This coin can store the creature in the form of "ether" data, and materialize it into an "ether spirit" to "compete" with other players."
"I see."
San Yue Qi suddenly realized and carefully put away the ether coin.
Giovanni looked at the two of them, with an imperceptible light flashing in his eyes. He smiled and said, "It seems that you two can't wait to experience the charm of "Ether Front". This coin contains a random initial ether spirit for you to cultivate.
After that, go to the "Championship Park" in various places to improve the "Championship Rating", complete the "Trial" of each Championship Park, obtain all the "Qualification Badges", and you can sign up for the finale of the celebration - the Championship.
Well, I won't disturb you two." Wilder nodded to them and said, "I have to go do other things now. I wish you two good results in the competition! I look forward to meeting you two on the field."
San Yue Qi waved to the two of them and said, "So...goodbye, gentlemen?"
"goodbye!"
After saying that, Giovanni and Wilde turned and left, their figures quickly disappearing in the bustling crowd.
Bai Qiong froze in his place as he watched the two people go away. He felt as if something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
"Hey, Bai Qiong, what are you daydreaming about?"
Sanyueqi tugged at Baiqiong's clothes, interrupting his thoughts, "Don't you want to take a look at your own ether spirit?"
March 7th could not wait to raise the coin in front of him and toss it gently according to Wilde's method.
A blue light flashed, and a small mechanical creature jumped out, spinning in circles and making a "sizzling" sound of electricity.
"Wow! So cute!"
Sanyueqi cried out in surprise, carefully extended his finger, and gently touched the small mechanical creation, "Is this the Demonic Mechanic?"
The possessed robot seemed to feel San Yueqi's touch, making even more cheerful "sizzling" sounds and flying around her fingers.
San Yueqi smiled happily, and gently stroked the metal shell of the Demonic Machine with his other hand, his eyes full of love.
"Is this my initial ether spirit? It feels so great!" March 7 said excitedly.
Bai Qiong looked at San Yue Qi and her demonic device, and then he realized that something was wrong.
In the original plot, after the conversation with Giovanni, a group called "Topa Support Group" will appear.
Similar to Team Rocket from Pokémon, they go and grab the Ethereum coin that a kid picked up.
This is also a novice tutorial level. After this level is over, the child will give the coin he picked up to the protagonist, and then get the first ether spirit.
Dimensional savings.
But now
No child picked up any coins, and Topa's support group did not show up.
This is the biggest world line change at the moment.
He took a deep breath, took out his ether coin, and imitated March 7, holding the coin in front of him and tossing it gently.
There was a flash of blue light, and surprisingly, nothing was summoned.
Bai Qiong was slightly stunned, looking at the empty coin in his hand, frowning slightly. He tried again, tossed the coin up again, and stared at it intently.
However, still nothing appeared.
The coin drew an arc in the air and fell back into his palm. It still felt cold to the touch, but there was no trace of the ether spirit.
"what?"
Sanyueqi came over, blinking his big eyes, with a puzzled look on his face, "What's going on? Xiaobai, where is your ether spirit?"
