Chapter 163 (1/2)
Blue Screen
Chu Shen and his friend had, of course, disappeared from the dueling grounds. This time, they appeared in a rocky plateau. In front of them was a steep cliff and behind them was a stretch of empty rock. The sky was dark and ominous, though the sun could be seen occasionally peeking through the sky.
Chu Shen didn’t have time to study his surroundings since a blue screen appeared in front of him.
Chu Shen blinked. The blue screen stayed in front of him. What the heck was this? This had never happened for him before. Chu Shen studied the blue screen in front of him and was stunned when he realized it had every martial art he had learned under skills. Lucas, Aslo, and Chrissa had similar blue appear in front of them.
Aslo and Chrissa were extremely confused at this. Just what was this strange thing? Lucas, however, was in shock. Wasn’t this the same kind of table that appeared in VR games? He had played them often before the accident with his parents. One of his favorites was Royal Routes Legends, an epic magic game set in a fantasy world. Those who played the game often usually called it RRL.
As this thought occurred to Lucas, he attempted to dismiss the screen like he would in the game. “Dismiss.” As soon as Lucas said that, the screen disappeared. “Status.” The screen appeared in front of him again.
Dismissing the screen, he looked over at Chu Shen. His face was scrunched up in confusion as he stared at the screen in front of him. Lucas went over to him and looked over his shoulder. While he could see the blue screen, no writing was visible. He couldn’t see anything besides a blank screen.
“Hey Chu Shen, can you see anything?” Chu Shen turned his head to look at Lucas when he heard his voice. Unfortunately, the blue screen blocked his vision. While he could see through it, it was difficult to make anything specific out.
“That you Lucas?” Chu Shen’s voice had a questioning tone to it.
Lucas laughed at he saw Chu Shen squinting at him through the status screen. “You dummy. Just say dismiss and it’ll go away.”
Chu Shen tried it and the blue screen disappeared. While Chu Shen was dismissing the status screen, Lucas informed Chrissa and Aslo how to get rid of their status screen.
After they got rid of the screens, they studied their surroundings. Looking off the edge of the plateau, all of them were stunned at what they saw. Below them, they could see two armies clas.h.i.+ng.
The two armies were so far away that any normal human would have seen only dark blobs. Thanks to their cultivation level, and Lucas’ cyborg eyes, all of them could see the two armies with perfect clarity.
