Bad luck plagues him, he refuses to become a Kamen Rider.

"Otherwise, wouldn't all my years working for the conglomerate have been for nothing?"

Guihu was quite proud, but Youxing was not discouraged at all.

Since he became a special consultant for the conglomerate, his salary has far exceeded what he used to earn.

With his current financial resources, although he can't afford Guihu's car, it's more than enough for him to completely upgrade his life.

Yuuki doesn't pursue a particularly luxurious life; that's enough for her.

"I should also put my moving on the agenda as soon as possible, and then there's the car..."

Yuuki thought about it and decided to buy a motorcycle.

The motorcycle is small and fast, and he is not an ordinary person; he is also resistant to crashes. Unless a major accident occurs, there will be no accidents.

Yuuki felt he had no reason not to buy a motorcycle.

"Yuuki! Mr. Takatora!"

Manatsu's voice was always so energetic. The two looked through the crowd and found Manatsu waving at them.

After quickly walking over, Manatsu smiled and led the two of them into the school.

Unlike in the past, the school gates were open today, with not only students coming and going, but also media carrying cameras, some game enthusiasts, and a large number of curious passersby.

Various banners related to games were hung on the trees along both sides of the road.

"World's first release, the latest fighting game!"

"An unprecedented virtual game awaits your challenge!"

……

Yu Xing was dazzled and only turned his gaze back when someone called him.

"senior!"

The voice sounded familiar, but Yu Xing couldn't quite place it until he saw the person's face. He then recognized her as the girl they had rescued last time.

"Senior! About that matter..."

Before he could finish speaking, Guihu shook his head at the girl: "We'll talk about it later."

There were just too many people around, and Guihu wasn't sure if it was safe here, so there were some things he couldn't say.

Who is this?

Manatsu looked the junior up and down and asked curiously.

"I helped her out a little when I came to the school before, and that's how we met."

Yuuki naturally couldn't tell Manatsu the truth, so he made up some excuse to brush it off.

Manatsu didn't suspect anything. She smiled and extended her hand: "Hello, I'm Yuuki's friend, Sonoda Manatsu."

Manatsu's liveliness is infectious, and the girl hesitated for only a moment before reaching out to shake hands with Manatsu.

"Tsukishima Yuzuki".

After a brief introduction, while the two girls were still talking, Guihu tugged at Youxing.

"You take Manatsu to check out the game expo later, and Yuzuki and I will go somewhere else to chat."

Knowing that separating was for the purpose of discussing things, Yuuki was quite happy to do so.

"That's perfect, it won't disturb Manatsu and me while we're looking at the exhibition."

Upon hearing this, Guihu's face darkened immediately: "Wasn't it you bastard who insisted on calling me to come along yesterday? And now that I'm here, you dare to complain about me?"

"I brought you here in case of emergencies, you know how lucky I am..."

Yuuki looked troubled: "I'll have to rely on you to protect Manatsu and the others. I'm afraid I can't protect them by myself."

Guihu snorted coldly, barely accepting Youxing's explanation.

He stopped arguing with Yuuki and joined in Manatsu and Yuzuki's conversation.

After chatting for a while, Guihu found an excuse to leave with Yuzuki, leaving only Yuuki and Manatsu behind.

"Let's go check out the front! The game expo is about to start."

Despite the slight delay, Manatsu remained in high spirits.

Without the Guihu brand light bulb, the two managed to squeeze through the crowd and reach the front of the exhibition.

"Wow!"

When she saw the arena filled with a large arena, Manatsu let out a gasp.

Yu Xing wasn't particularly surprised. He was a little confused about what such a large arena was for, so he looked towards the arena.

There were two hosts standing on the stage, and behind them was a large, covered display board.

The two hosts were holding microphones, trying to liven up the atmosphere; it would still be a while before the event officially started.

"Yuxing, this is such a big arena, are they going to drag people up there to fight in boxing matches?"

Manatsu's voice was somewhat muffled amidst the noisy crowd, but Yuuki still managed to catch it.

"Isn't this for a game? Shouldn't it be prepared for a game?"

Yuuki lowered his head to make sure Manatsu could hear what he was saying.

"But what kind of game needs such a large arena? I didn't even see the console."

Manatsu looked left and right, but still couldn't figure it out.

"We should know soon."

Yu Xing glanced at her watch; it was almost nine o'clock, precisely the time for the new game's promotional launch.

As expected, the host quickly announced: "This game is sponsored by the World Tree Foundation and uses extremely realistic virtual technology. Now, let's reveal its true nature!"

When did the Etrian Foundation start making games?

The host's words startled Yu Xing, who scratched his head.

As a specially appointed consultant, how could he not know that World Tree Group had a game project?

Yuuki didn't speculate too much, but instead turned her gaze to the display board.

As the music started, the display board slowly revealed its full appearance, and the game name on it made Youxing's gaze immediately freeze.

[Alien Warriors]

He finished reciting the name in his mind, then let out a cold laugh.

As expected, anything related to the World Tree Foundation is bound to be of low quality.

The moment Yuuki saw the name, he knew what it was.

"I wonder how Lingma has modified Lockseed. If it's just a half-finished product, then this game will be terrible."

How long has it been since they submitted their proposal?

Is it really safe to present the proposal in such a rush without any problems?

Since today is the first release, Yuxing decided to spend more time here.

If anything unexpected happens, he can remedy the situation in time and incidentally stop the game from continuing.

With a change in mindset, I became much more relaxed and serious.

Yuuki's change caught Manatsu's attention, and she gently patted Yuuki: "Yuuki, what's wrong?"

Yuuki's gaze swept over, very seriously: "Matsu, if I tell you to run in a bit, run outside quickly, and don't stop."

Although she didn't know why Yuuki wanted to tell her this, Yuuki was almost never wrong, and Manatsu trusted him completely, so she nodded decisively.

Once he was sure that Manatsu had heard him, he looked away and focused all his attention on the stage.

"Well then, without further ado, let's invite the first group of contestants to come up on stage and perform!"

The pre-selected individuals walked up from the audience as the host announced their arrival, and then they took out sunflower seed locks from their pockets and opened them simultaneously.

A small virtual battlefield was instantly constructed on the ground, and a rift tore open in the sky, from which two low-level aliens leaped into the battlefield.

"Oh!"

Looking at the aliens in the virtual arena, Youxing relaxed a bit. As long as this step went smoothly, there shouldn't be many unexpected problems.

Amidst the applause of the audience, the host, with a smile on his face, waved his hand to officially begin the competition.

Chapter 55 You've got a lucky break!

Inside the virtual arena, two alien beings fought each other under their respective commands, green blood splattering everywhere, but quickly dissipating as virtual particles.

Yuuki was also treated to a visual feast. He had never seen such a near-realistic virtual game before. It must be said that Sengoku Ryoma truly deserves to be called a genius scientist.

As the battle intensified, the aliens suffered increasingly severe injuries.

When one of them could no longer hold on and showed signs of exhaustion, the other alien instantly seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and slapped its chest with a claw.

"Heh!!!"

Accompanied by the angry roar of the alien, it disintegrated into countless particles.

The other alien creature, having lost its opponent, was sucked into the rift that opened again in the sky before it could even begin to vent its anger.

After watching the entire process, Yuuki couldn't help but admire Lingma's ingenious ideas once again.

The winner has been decided. The two contestants stepped down from the stage, and the host, smiling, held up a few sunflower seed locks and looked down at the sea of ​​people below.

"Our contestants have demonstrated their skills. Now, would anyone like to come up on stage and give it a try?"

His voice stirred up a thousand waves, and the crowd below erupted in cheers: "Me! Me! Me!"

Countless people raised their hands, their eyes filled with longing as they crowded forward, hoping to be chosen.

The louder the crowd became, the less anxious the host became. His gaze swept back and forth across the crowd, finally settling on Youxing, who had a calm expression.

"You're not even curious about this game?"

The host was suddenly overcome with jealousy; he wanted to see the man's face light up with ecstasy, so he hatched a plan.

At this moment, Yuuki stood in the churning crowd, protecting Manatsu like a pillar of strength.
