29 I Also Have Arms (1/2)
”Did you hear, rumours have been going around that this year, the Alliance has invented a new product, apparently, it's called something space eye. They can finally broadcast the city ranking competitions of other cities.”
”Yes, the dimensional space eye is created from dimensional stone, this information has already been spread over the entire continent.”
”Is this information true?”
”What the f*ck, you remain scooped up in your house all the time and don't even watch the news, what is not true? Go to any public square, those places where large screens have been set, they are already filled with crowds of people waiting for the dimensional broadcast to come online and reach the Earth. You know, I should also go find a place, the television sets at home are too small for cheering, they can't satisfy the craving.”
Today was a very special day! The once a year city ranking competition which was directly related to everyone's benefit and any city's honour started today. In previous years, an ordinary person would only hear about the final rankings after the event was over. But other than hearing about it, everything else was too far from them.
But a few days ago, the Central Continent's government publicly announced that the present City Ranking Competition maybe be broadcasted if the dimensional broadcast was achieved. Immediately, the entire human race was enlivened!
The legendary other dimensions, even the Fifth Dimension was something which ordinary people could only hear stories about, but would never be able to personally witness, not even a broadcast.
Thus today, everyone who had received the news earlier had laid down all the work on their hands and were waiting to personally witness the legendary other dimensions as well as see every city's newly awakened kill their way in all directions.
Streets, bars, pubs, colleges, any place which had a large screen was already jampacked with people, time slowly passed and as the broadcast finally started, a wave of sounds ranging from bellows of surprise to shrieks of excitement successively echoed all over.
The legendary Fifth Dimension, the legendary city within the sky, the legendary floating steel fortress, the legendary streets filled with fluxers walking around…..every scene in the broadcast was what everyone in the surging crowd yearned for.
Lin Li was walking on the street while attentively watching the big screen in the public square and calmly observing the endlessly excited people, thinking that she couldn't be classified as a part of this world.
Suddenly, the scene changed.
”Hey, our Lucky Wind City's battle squads look great, look at the battle squad in the front, they have a war chariot.”
”Don't start shouting for nothing when you don't know anything, ok? That is a Delta Thunder God TX12 all-terrain war chariot, it costs 300,000 dimensional coins to make one, it can fly sky high, travel on land and dive underwater, isn't it frightening.”
”You said what? 300,000 dimensional coins? Aren't you adding two extra zeroes? I have never seen so much money in my whole life.”
”Fart, haven't you seen the fatty walking in the front? He is the son of the richest person of our Lucky Wind City, and see that four-eyed vulgar man, he is the heir of xx enterprises and that little guy with crooked teeth, his family is involved in the business of real estate, for them, 300,000 is nothing....”
”Huh, that last boy looks very normal.”
”Eh, I don't know that contestant, however, seeing that beautiful and icily arrogant woman walking by his side, I don't think his background is simple. In any case, this battle squad is formed by nouveau riche, every one of them should have used a fortune to awaken.”
”Haha, brother you're wrong, his name is Li Yunmu, he is a naturally awakened fluxer and belongs to our sixteenth high school.”
”Dang, naturally awakened fluxer, excellent.”
Hearing the name Li Yunmu, Lin Li suddenly lifted her head and gazed at the screen with complex emotions, seeing the man getting farther and farther away from her.
”Let's go Ah Li, you are only 16 years old now, you still have a chance. Maybe next year you will be able to pass the half-awakened fluxer's exam.”
A girl walking with Lin Li, who clearly knew about Lin Li and Li Yunmu's past relationship, said to comfort her.
”Yes, I still have the chance, but only to become a half fluxer....”
Lin Li said with tired expression, not realizing that a trace of misery appeared on her face.
On the flux test day half month ago, who would have thought that she, who carried the hopes of entire sixteenth high school, would fail to be selected as a half fluxer because of lacking a little bit of flux power at the half fluxer testing machine. In addition, that childhood sweetheart whom she considered to be unworthy of her would become the honour and glory of all students and teachers in one move. Not only that, he would also enter the place she had yearned for all her life and become one of the leading characters watched by countless people on the screen.
...
”Ka cha…..”
Following crooked teeth Qiang, four-eyed brother thin also activated his silver base equipment. Next instant, another soldier equipped with silver base equipment appeared in front of Li Yunmu.
”Tracker silver base equipment!”
