Tuo Shanjun, Tu Ge... are also the blessings of Long Qi himself. His attempt to "slow down the pace" was completely ruined in an instant under the guidance of a bad topic.
Moreover, the long-term stagnant atmosphere around the card table also made it difficult to start any casual chat.
The poker game inevitably entered a fast-paced track as the tiger demanded.
The second game went much faster than the first game...in fact, it was less than 30% of the time of the first game.
After quickly learning and adapting, the two extraordinary species have mastered certain tricks. Moreover, their ability to predict is far superior to that of Long Qi, so that when the situation reaches the middle, they know that there is no possibility of making any further achievements, and they have to restart a new game.
Long Qi's scalp was numb, but he had to restart as instructed.
In the third game, the two extraordinary species came up and used the most drastic methods to wreak havoc and massacre in order to find opportunities to destroy the "basic environment".
Long Qi and other lawful factions initially still had some energy to save the hundreds of millions of people in Lake City from the two extraordinary demon kings. But after a few rounds of fast-paced confrontation, the energy was almost exhausted.
In this way, the fourth game, the fifth game... it didn't even take until the middle of the night, and the card table was already shaking.
Long Qi's ominous premonition became a reality. After knowing how to restart the game, sleeping became a luxury for him. Others could lie down when they were low on energy. He who had the authority to restart became a waiter who had to serve him all the time. No matter how sleepy or tired he was, Mo La would knock on the table and ask him to hurry up and restart the game.
Moreover, since there are fewer and fewer people around the card table who can withstand it, two people playing cards
It's really boring. Wen Huilan, who fished all the way, can recharge the number, and the rest...
Only Frith could barely resist, while others like Zhao Xi, Liu Fengming, and Lao Yao were already overwhelmed. So much so that the confused Major Hong was dragged over to top up the count, and then lay down for half the game.
In the end, Long Qi still had to work hard to cheer up, and while being a good "reset button", he also had to be a good partner...
Time passed by minute by minute, and the extraordinarily long night seemed to have no end.
Taking advantage of Mo La and Tiger's "one-on-one" at the end of the card game, Long Qiban leaned on his chair and squinted for a while, but suddenly woke up. He looked at his watch and saw that only seven or eight minutes had passed since he closed his eyes.
Probably because the glass door that was smashed by Liu Fengming had not been repaired yet, the mountain wind blew at night, making it a bit cool even in midsummer.
At the table, Mo La and Tiger were discussing the key elements of the game, and now they focused on two key figures who never appeared.
Mo La fanned herself with her long-brimmed hat, her expression a little irritated: "Luo Yuan and Tu Ge, these two guys are really clueless. You also said that they are hiding a plot and have to meet certain prerequisites... Oh shit ! I think Luo is just lazy, or he just can’t handle those two!"
Tiger felt calmer: "You paid too much attention to character card killing earlier, but it is useless to kill everyone. He said this is to build building blocks, nothing else."
"Then you should stop trying to pick out the clown's cards when you have nothing to do, okay? You didn't hit Tuge. If you did, would you throw all the cards at him?"
The two extraordinary beings were about to quarrel again. Long Qi rolled his eyes.
Squinting at the progress of the card game on the table, it seemed that he had entered the meaningless "late stage" again... Well, he couldn't sleep either.
Looking around, he ignored the people staggering around. Even the first-class tough guy Fries was taking a break at this time.
Wen Huilan, on the other hand, had finished playing all the cards and was sitting quietly, holding a coffee cup, looking at the shadowy mountain peaks outside the floor-to-ceiling window in trance.
She didn't know whether she was looking at the wind leaves on the sky ridge; or she was thinking about the person she tried to sell but couldn't say out loud after all.
Long Qi wanted to discuss with Wen Huilan the issues related to Tu Ge; he also wanted to discuss whether the "Hollywood" that year was filmed and produced according to the intentions of Tu Ge and Li Wei behind him.
He also wanted to ask whether the fate of those homeless people who were stuck at the bottom and even disappeared without a trace after the Great Return to the City Movement had been determined by them from the beginning!
After so many questions were actually asked, they were replaced by a very boring sentence: "Mr. Hui, you are really able to endure."
Wen Huilan responded softly: "It's better to be awake than to be asleep."
"……Yes."
Long Qi was accidentally stabbed in the vital part with a knife, which was heartbreaking. After being stunned by the bad memory of "web crawler" for a moment, I reluctantly changed the topic:
"Where's your 'highly paid' bodyguard?"
"About, chatting with friends upstairs?"
"The protection target is still downstairs, and he ran upstairs? This doesn't seem very professional."
"The supply point is relatively safe."
"But he can't hear you... Well, I mean, we are short of manpower now.
, let him come over and play two games with me. I just saw his character cards, they are really good. "
Wen Huilan smiled lightly, let go of the topic, and raised her glass slightly:
"Would you like a drink?"
"Okay, but where is the waiter?"
Wen Huilan pressed the call button on the side of the table, and soon the naive robot waiter rushed over to serve him steaming coffee, but other than that, it was hard to expect anything special.
That's fine, as long as I can resist the sleepiness...
Long Qi took the coffee cup and took two sips. Surprisingly, it felt pretty good. He simply kicked Fries awake, and before the latter lost his temper, he gave him a recommendation with a smile:
"Have a drink!"
Fries forgave him for the sake of the coffee...actually the robot waiter. Because this robot, which looks round-headed and lacks excellent industrial design creativity, can actually provide him with the black tea he likes!
"Artificial intelligence is really a great invention."
"Your sister's artificial intelligence!"
Not to mention that this kind of silly, black and thick mobile beverage machine has almost no connection with artificial intelligence. Even if it "connects", this moment makes Long Qi painfully think of the "Flag Bearer" hundreds of kilometers away... And the authority Ronan gave him through this thing.
However, Long Qi could only mutter a few curse words.
Fries, on the other hand, after taking a sip of black tea to cheer up, he went forward without any warning: "Ms. Wen, do you mind if I ask about your relationship history with Mr. Tuger?"
Long Qi choked on his coffee, and he was very suspicious. At this moment, Mo La and Tiger also pricked up their ears - even if the dispute between them
The discussion is still ongoing.
Wen Huilan was silent for half a second, smiled and shook her head: "I quite mind."
"But if I were at Yingtou Field and I didn't get to know Lao Yao in front of me, Lao Yao would most likely come to find you. And later when the boss learns about your friendship with Lao Yao, you should also mention it... at least your My godson must be there to work hard."
Frith is really a top-notch player in straight-ball play, and he looks confident when he pries into privacy. When it comes to his speculations, he has them all in his hand: "Gao Wenfu will go to Jincheng for a long time, and he also wants to protect his foundation and not sell it." How can teammates attract the attention of the BOSS? It seems that I have looked for a tiger before, but I didn't get the desired results. Isn't it natural to find a heavyweight to match? "
"This is something Lao Gao can do."
He was obviously arguing with Mo La about the pros and cons of the card game, but Tiger interrupted suddenly. He didn't just do some last-ditch damage, he came with questions:
"Speaking of which, I've known Levi for a long time. However, I remember that before the 1980s, no... it should be before 1983, I really hadn't seen Tuge. Have you seen him?"
Tiger asked Mo La casually.
Mo La seemed to be watching the evolution of the card game seriously, and responded casually: "I was sleeping in the nutrition cabin at that time, so it's useless to ask me."
"Then when did you have an impression of him?"
"He took over the position of training instructor, and it was probably after 1985. By that time, someone might have lost all his pants..."
"Someone who lost his pants" the corner of his mouth twitched, the few cards in his hand opened and closed quickly twice, and his eyes turned to Wen Hui again
orchid:
"Look, we are all still very curious about Mr. Tuge in the 1980s. Ms. Wen might as well tell us what he looked like back then."
As he spoke, Tiger pointed at Lao Yao, who had just been awakened by the voice:
"You can make up for it."
Lao Yao said "Ah" in a daze. He didn't understand what was going on, but instinctively followed the gazes of people around the card table and looked at Wen Huilan.
In this way, Wen Huilan was almost attacked from all sides, and there was no one standing on the same line with her at the card table. Especially when there are highly dangerous extraordinary species like Mo La and Tiger.
But even so, she was able to manage her expression very appropriately. She smiled and pondered. She didn't agree immediately, but she didn't refuse either.
Thinking about how she came to serve as Ronan's guide with only an unreliable bodyguard, she might have been mentally prepared for this...
In other words, it will still have to be sold, sooner or later.
Just as Long Qi was thinking, his wrist suddenly shook, and the communicator began to vibrate continuously. He glanced at the time - it was already 2 o'clock in the morning. Who was calling at this time?
On the other side of the ocean?
He was muttering in his mind, but the moment he saw the caller's name, he lowered his head and subconsciously wanted to get up and leave. As a result, Mo La stopped and shouted:
"You answer the phone secretly?"
Long Qi hesitated and replied: "Well, she is Boss Luo's secretary..."
"He has more secretaries, which one?"
"He...he Yueyin."
Mo La raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised: "It's junior sister."
In a sense, He Yueyin's weight is not inferior to that of Tu Ge. Mo La doesn't care that more than half of the people here can't understand her.
Regarding the relationship with He Yueyin, he tapped Long Qi with his chin:
"Just pick her up here. It is said that this junior sister of mine is always upright and upright, and she talks to others about everything."
What if it involves secrets?
Long Qi cursed and held it back, but he could only answer the phone as Mo La said: "Uh, hello, Vice President He. Is it about the live broadcast? Boss Luo is not here. Apart from him, we They’re all here.”
He sped up his speech to inform He Yueyin of the situation here to avoid misjudgment and inappropriate words.
He Yueyin did not hesitate and said directly: "I can't contact Mr. Luo, can you find him as soon as possible?"
"could not be reached?"
It doesn’t make sense!
When you are away from home, communication should always be open, but if it is not possible, as long as you are on Earth, just shout "Ronan, I want to talk to you"... and you will not be unable to contact us!
In this case, there is only one possibility:
Ronan didn't want to talk to He Yueyin.
Long Qi's heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and he had an ominous premonition: "This...did something happen?"
He Yueyin asked back: "Have you noticed any changes in the spiritual ocean in the Lake City area?"
"Aha?"
This stumped Long Qi. This group of people is basically all capable people, but unfortunately, they all tend to be on the physical side. For a field like the spiritual ocean, to be honest, the sensitivity is not high.
Long Qi subconsciously looked at the two extraordinary beings and said that those who are capable can do anything. These two...
His conversation with He Yueyin would definitely not be hidden from Mo La and Tiger. But at present, they don't seem to be particularly clear about the so-called changes in the spiritual ocean.
Mera gestured to the dragon
Seven: "Don't say half-talk, ask clearly what's going on."
Long Qicai didn't want to be the transmitter and simply turned on the speakerphone.
Opposite him, He Yueyin did not pretend to be mysterious and said directly: "According to reports from many people with mental side abilities, in the past period, the global spiritual ocean has experienced very frequent abnormal fluctuations. Investigate its source, especially the Old World... …as far back as four hours ago.
"There are also some ability users who report that they have frequent nightmares after falling asleep normally. According to the current observation data, the areas where abnormal fluctuations occur are indeed in the current time zone late at night. Some data also support that this is consistent with the local time zone. There is a positive correlation between the number of people falling asleep.”
Long Qi felt that this scene seemed a bit "familiar". Before he could figure out what was going on, Mo La had already responded:
"Daylight Nightmare, upside down?"
Yes, it’s the Daylight Nightmare!
This thing is also called a day nightmare, which refers specifically to the collective nightmare event that shocked the world on May 6 this year and suddenly disappeared without a trace.
At that time, at least hundreds of millions of people encountered direct sunlight, strong light, high temperature, etc. in their dreams when they fell asleep. It mainly occurred in the New World area, where it was late at night when the incident occurred.
It's exactly the opposite of the old continent this time.
But the intelligence at that time had no clue at all, and no one knew what the cause was. Even if it is the effect of a "supernormal power", the suspicion of the Tianzhao Order is still high!
But now, He Yueyin came directly to Luonan, this...
Mo La had already asked first: "What do dreams have in common?"
He Yueyin maintained a calm tone: "Can
Those who have some memories of dreams basically claim that they were caught up in continuous exhausting battles, or even wars.
"There are also many people who directly pointed out that it was directly related to a live broadcast they watched in the first half of the night."
Long Qi raised his head in astonishment and looked at the "basic environment" with debris scattered all over the desktop.
The tiger also asked: "How much is a lot?"
"The clearly designated 'sample' is around two thousand people."
"That's not much..."
"In the spiritual ocean, there have been more than 20 million samples of abnormal fluctuations of the same frequency collected, and the number is rising rapidly."
