Chapter 167 Reunion with the Emperor
I was lucky enough to draw one of the Five Elements Armor I wanted.
Zhang Zhao felt that he was quite lucky.
After experiencing familiar changes.
Zhang Zhao sensed that his perspective had changed.
but?
This time, there were no issues with the perspective switching.
He felt that he could easily control his current body.
"it is good……"
"So handsome..."
"Good talk..."
Amidst the commotion, Zhang Zhao realized he seemed to be in a very unusual place.
The surroundings were brightly lit, and the stands were full of people, some of whom were waving excitedly.
Some were having a heated discussion.
Zhang Zhao's gaze fell on the black piano placed in front of him.
He lowered his head slightly and saw his own slender and beautiful fingers, which felt strangely familiar.
"Have I become Li Xinnan again?" Zhang Zhao wondered to himself.
This isn't quite right, is it?
Does that mean the Flame Dragon Armor Summoner is now in my hands?
Is it that simple?
Zhang Zhao noticed the necklace she was wearing around her neck.
It is inlaid with a red crystal.
Zhang Zhao had considered the process of acquiring the Flame Dragon Armor, and how he would use Bei Miao's body to wage another civil war, reversing the outcome of the previous conflict.
Flame Dragon versus Dark Flame Dragon...
He even considered the possibility of returning to the Flame Dragon Armor from a thousand years ago to participate in the light and shadow war of that time.
National Piano Competition D City Selection Round - Final
There wasn't much time for Zhang Zhao to think about why.
Fortunately, Xin Nan had already finished playing, so all he had to do now was stand up and give his thanks.
For Xin Nan, playing the piano is more interesting than fighting monsters, even though he is good at both.
But Zhang Zhao can't play the piano anymore.
……
"The winner of this qualifying competition is..."
The host deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
But the audience clearly didn't buy it.
"Li Xinnan! The Piano Prince!"
Their cheers already revealed the outcome.
"That's right, it's our Li Xinnan!"
The crowd erupted in cheers!
Among the audience members sitting in the front row, a woman with a little girl and the girl next to her were genuinely happy for Xin Nan.
"Aunt Hui, you and Xiao Lan stay here. I'm going back to the dumpling restaurant to get busy."
"Minci, you really care about him. Aren't you going to share your joy of winning the city championship with him?"
"No need, it's fine now. He'll definitely prove himself on a bigger stage, and I'll always be by his side..."
"it is good."
…………
Zhang Zhao discovered that the skip button for the plot had been removed.
I can only go with the flow.
Interviews and award presentations.
He performed mechanical movements like a puppet, without any expression throughout.
Fortunately, Xin Nan is not one to remain smug and elated at times like this. Everyone knows this is typical of the piano prince.
No one will care.
"Please sign your name..."
After completing these tasks, Zhang Zhao finally relaxed.
"Brother Xinnan is about to become a superstar. Even we'll have to line up for his autograph!"
at this time.
Aunt Hui led Xiao Lan to Zhang Zhao's side.
“Xinnan, your mother always says that if a person is upright, their shadow will be upright. Aunt Hui believes that you will not become arrogant or complacent because of this small achievement.”
Xiao Lan's innocent and adorable appearance.
Aunt Hui's words sounded like a warning, yet they were also full of loving concern.
This made Zhang Zhao feel very comfortable, even though he was now an imposter posing as Li Xinnan.
"Let's go back and have some dumplings."
"How did Brother Xinnan know that Sister Minci went back to make dumplings for you?"
Xiao Lan looked on with curiosity.
Zhang Zhao patted Xiao Lan's head.
"Brother Xinnan has prophetic abilities."
"I do not believe."
Xiao Lan acted like she was a three-year-old child, which was very cute.
"Haha, now I'm going to make a prediction: you will become friends with a child who likes to look into the sun."
"How could anyone possibly look directly into the sun?"
Do such people really exist?
Xiao Lan looked on with curiosity.
…………
Zhang Zhao is now experiencing this heartwarming storyline, and it seems that not skipping it isn't so bad?
He also checked in at the Happiness Dumpling Restaurant.
Wearing aprons, Minci and Aunt Hui were busy making dumplings that were absolutely delicious.
It really does taste like happiness.
From time to time, you could hear them discussing topics related to Xinnan.
"In such an environment, it's no wonder that Xin Nan has such a good temper and such artistic talent."
After Zhang Zhao finished eating the dumplings.
We left this cozy little house.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Hui and Minci, he got on his motorcycle and left.
I stopped in front of a burger joint called Fast Burger.
Business is temporarily suspended.
Zhang Zhao pushed open the door.
There was no one in the store.
He skillfully walked to a target and aimed his eyes at the bullseye for verification.
After passing through, he went into the restroom.
I witnessed the toilet sink and the secret passage behind it open.
Zhang Zhao entered a modern, high-tech base that was completely different from the style of the toilet.
ERP research base.
Slowly walk in.
After passing the fingerprint verification process again.
He entered the main research room.
Here, a smartly dressed woman and a man in a black suit are studying something.
Their identities are self-evident.
"Xin Nan, you should go and start your combat training. Your first real fight might be coming soon. We are currently analyzing the victim's blood."
Mijin and Higashisan were very focused on their work.
Zhang Zhao saw a picture of the Evil Ginseng Beast on the screen.
Zhang Zhao entered the virtual combat room once again.
Spin.
Price surge.
The mountain is shrouded in clouds and rain, and exudes an ethereal aura.
An old man is waiting here.
"We meet again, young man..."
The old man from the sacred mountain stroked his beard, smiling broadly, his voice very kind.
You've changed a lot... but all for the better.
But as he continued to speak...
The authority of the voice was highlighted.
A golden figure appeared.
The old man from the sacred mountain transformed into imperial armor.
"it's me……"
Zhang Zhao was not surprised that the Emperor Armor still remembered him.
If we're talking about what's special, it's definitely the other side that's more special than itself.
But when he opened his mouth, he realized that the voice didn't seem to be Li Xinnan's.
Here, he became his original self.
He turned his gaze to the opposite side.
The Emperor Armor also understood his meaning.
"This is because you became stronger on your own, it has nothing to do with me."
"What advice do you have for me, senior?"
Zhang Zhao bowed to the golden imperial armor. He did have a guess about this easy mode where the experience could end immediately, and the key to that guess lay in the person in front of him.
The majestic voice of the Emperor Armor slowly resounded, as if it came from the heavens above, carrying boundless pressure and solemnity: "I was worried that your strength had increased too quickly, and that your mental state might be lacking. I intended to lend you a hand. However, judging from your changes, it seems that I was overthinking it."
The Imperial Armor paused slightly, and its golden light intensified.
He continued, "Your progress has truly exceeded my expectations. But the road ahead is long... you still need to work hard, but you're very close."
The source of his original violence has not been revealed at all; he seems to have embarked on an unprecedented path, yet his state of mind remains so stable.
What an impressive junior!
Zhang Zhao understood the first half of the sentence perfectly.
But the second half of the sentence turns into a classic riddle.
Do I need to become stronger to deal with a stronger enemy?
"I have a few questions; could you please enlighten me, senior?"
"can."
"Do I have a chance to return to my original world?"
"can."
Why do I always feel like the world I've lived through is incomplete?
Yes, the world is broken into pieces and needs to be put back together.
"Is it six pieces?"
"correct."
Are those beads useful?
Zhang Zhao was referring to what he obtained from the simulation of capturing the king.
"it works."
"Is it only simulations involving ultimate armor that have the opportunity to change real history?"
"Yes."
The emperor discovered Zhang Zhao's unparalleled intelligence; there were some things he himself was not suited to say, yet his yes/no answers were far too effortless. It was so easy for him.
"Won't this journey be too long?"
"No, with your strength, it will only get faster and faster."
"Thank you.
Zhang Zhao ended his conversation with the Emperor Armor. He felt that this was the limit of what he could answer; asking too many questions might cause him trouble.
He was just turning himself into a headless fly.
