Nameless 73

Thunder rumbled! In an instant, the entire valley shook violently. Countless trees toppled, the ground cracked open, and the dense forest collapsed, exposing the dark earth beneath. The massive boulder under Bai Zongnan’s feet trembled fiercely, as if it was bearing some terrifying force, threatening to disintegrate at any moment. Even more, the grass and weeds at his feet flattened, presenting a scene of utter apocalypse.

He vaguely sensed a presence, as though—

“It’s all thanks to Director Ke’s wise leadership and strong support for the show that we’ve reached this point. I must produce even better programs to repay him!” Lin Lei exclaimed with excitement, as if receiving praise from Ke Lan was the highest honor.

After he spoke, several people released their spiritual senses, probing their surroundings to guard against ambushes or unforeseen dangers.

Lu Xuan walked to the master control console and magnified the image of the ship capable of firing ion cannons on a dedicated screen. The “Data Eye” revealed a warship three hundred meters long and one hundred meters wide.

“For the third round of the tournament, let’s hold it in the plaza outside this palace,” Elder Feng suggested.

On the island, apart from the ever-present sea and land, the simulated blue sky, fluffy clouds, and sunlight suddenly gave way to an endless void of darkness. No matter how hard Saeko tried to peer upwards, she could not discern any stars within the gloom, only a few faint, barely visible points of light.

While the native residents were celebrating in lively fashion, Wang Chen withdrew his attention, gazing at the descending Zero Space.

Daphne was rather reserved. Unlike Kailan, who wandered about, she couldn’t resist her curiosity and peeked inside for a moment before quickly pulling back, standing quietly and watching me intently, waiting for my reply.

Unless the towns band together for a show of force, perhaps there might be some effect, but is such a possibility even likely?

“Oh, come on, I’m human. Don’t do that again, or I won’t be drinking at your place anymore,” Chen Hao said.

The grip controller featured a fire button, and when necessary, could be used for close-quarters combat, such as punching. Yet this was not the APU’s strength—once an enemy closed in, the pilot would inevitably become the primary target, a fact beyond dispute.

Fu Siye sat beside Mu Yinyin, watching her interact with Jiang Ling with effortless ease and laughter. His expression seemed to darken even more.

“Boss Su is useless at everything except feigning madness and playing the fool. I was tricked by him back then, which is why I took on all this,” someone remarked.

Looking at the young people holding signs on Wood Street, Cheng Daqi was filled with anticipation for his future journey to overturn the fate of America.

Duan Jiajia thought that once technology advanced further—perhaps after 2008—she might venture into the peripherals industry herself.

Even winning a good item in a game was enough to excite someone for half a day, making them lose sleep. Some even claimed that winning a divine item was so thrilling it led to sudden death.

“But that’s not what you really think,” Mother Qi’s words cut straight to the heart of Qi Yuan’s true feelings.

Standing to the side and watching her tidy up, he remembered his plans for tomorrow and said, “I have to rejoin my unit tomorrow. Today I’ll take care of the outside land. If the house needs anything, just go to the supply cooperative and buy it.”

Aunt Liu saw Shen Ming’s worried expression and a smile flickered in her eyes. “All right, then. I was heading to the kitchen anyway.” With that, she turned and left.

I used to speak often of sincerity, but always regarded artful sincerity as a mere tactic.

That’s human nature! If you get along, you talk more; if not, you say less, or keep your distance altogether.

By contrast, ever since her arrival, Liu Shangyuan had done everything in his power to care for her. For Liu Zhixing, lost in a strange world with no kin, it was like a lifeline offered in the snow. Gradually, she truly came to regard Liu Shangyuan as her own father.
