Chapter 66: Righteous Energy
When the third young lady of the house arrived, Yang Yunqiu was desperately fighting with his books, and Mr. Hu had pressed him so hard that he could hardly find time to do his proper work, let alone pay attention to this delicate girl?
It's easy for others to ignore Miss Yang Yunqiu, but it's hard not to notice her.
In the Sun family, apart from Sun Zhong Yang, he is now the most prominent. The third young lady has a crush on Sun Zhong Yang and also pays attention to this second young master of the Sun family who can barely compare with Sun Zhong Yang.
As a result, it is impossible not to admit that Yang Yunqiu's appearance is good enough that any woman would not dislike him. The third miss had many admirers in Quanzhou and naturally developed a proud temperament, with a bit of self-love. As a 21st-century person, Yang Yunqiu was gentle when interacting with people, especially women, compared to men of this era. Perhaps an unintentional glance made the third miss misunderstand that he had a good impression of her.
At that time her thoughts must have been both proud and joyful, yet also disdainful.
Yu's family daughter, how could she let a concubine son of Sun's family eat swan meat?
As a result, a misunderstanding occurred.
Her father was just chatting with friends, talking about the latest news in Quanzhou, and mentioned Sun Zhaoming, jokingly mentioning that this kid is not bad, maybe he can be a son-in-law.
Third Miss's father was also a man who didn't bother with trivial matters and had a straightforward personality, so telling this kind of joke wasn't a big deal.
Actually, Third Miss heard these words and became angry and ashamed, running to Yang Yuxiu's face and scolding her. If it were not for the fact that Wang Yi and others rushed over to communicate with him at this moment, Yang Yuxiu would not have been so careless as to let her be too embarrassed.
Having found a secluded spot, Yang Yunqiu opened the communicator.
"What's wrong, why so anxious?"
Just now in class, the communicator rang regularly, once a minute, and it has been three times so far. Obviously, Wang Yi and others have something urgent.
Li Shanshan also brought her maid over and had her stand to one side, while she herself sat down beside Yang Yinqu.
A gentle breeze blew, lifting a strand of black hair. The two people leaned in to talk, naturally drawing slightly closer together. In the 21st century, it's normal for classmates to sit like this, but now, it seems a bit too intimate.
Li Shanshan's little maid was only eleven years old. Normally, Li Shanshan didn't restrict them too much. At this moment, one in green clothes and the other in a yellow shirt, they smiled at each other, looking quite lively and lovely.
"You said, does Miss like Second Master?"
"The second young master is not bad either, he's talented and handsome, although he's only a concubine's son. Think about the rare treasures in his mansion, each one worth a fortune. If our miss marries him, she'll definitely live a life of luxury. Besides... given the current situation, it's best for her to find someone who truly understands her. Having someone who truly understands you is better than anything else."
The two little maidservants lowered their voices to a whisper, and after Li Shanshan coughed, they all stopped talking, not daring to say another word.
Li Shanshan didn't pay attention to them, she furrowed her brow and asked: "What should we do?" Her voice was slightly tense, obviously she had some misgivings. Yang Yunqiu was also somewhat surprised, but with a calm expression, he said: "...I didn't expect this kind of thing either."
Something has happened on earth, a group of game enthusiasts who are obsessed with the modern version of the "World" game have actually developed from the game to reality, not only wanting to enjoy the thrill of upgrading and achievement in the game, but also extending it to the real world. They spontaneously formed an organization that specializes in 'learning from Lei Feng and doing good deeds'.
At first, there was nothing special, but they used to be connected with each other. Wherever there were some lonely elderly people or someone needed help, they would not hesitate to come forward and assist.
Later on, however, the things they did became more and more complicated. This group of gamers was not just ordinary students; although there were less than two hundred people, they came from all walks of life, and most of them were elites - doctors, police officers, businessmen, and even some rich second-generation and official second-generation descendants. With such a diverse group of people gathered together, completely absorbed in this one thing, how could these small-time activities possibly satisfy them?
They directly posted a message on the official forum of the game "World", called "Life and Death at Any Time", along with their phone number and main area of activity. If anyone's life or property is threatened, they can call the police, but if the police can't arrive quickly or can't handle it, they can dial their number.
At first, it was nothing, just a group of game enthusiasts playing and fooling around, like any other gaming guild organizing offline activities. But this thing was forwarded by many netizens, and many young people knew about it and were very enthusiastic about giving suggestions, perhaps everyone likes this kind of role-playing, just like a game.
As a result, the other day there was a woman who suffered a fire, and in her panic she didn't know what to do, so she made a phone call. She was quite lucky, as it turned out that there were some netizens nearby who arrived even faster than the firefighters. Not only did they rescue her, but they also managed to salvage most of her valuables. After all the commotion had died down, it turned out that two of them were firefighters in the game, and although their physical abilities may not have been up to par, their knowledge was almost on a par with that of real-life firefighters.
The firefighters who arrived later also said that the responses of these people were all correct, and if they couldn't encourage such impulsive behavior, they would have liked to ask directly whether those two game enthusiasts were interested in participating in training and joining this profession.
Li Shanshan sighed: "Won't cause... trouble, right?"
She grew up in the Li family, has some political sensitivity, ordinary folk organizations are nothing to worry about, but such behavior, I'm afraid the police really won't support it. Moreover, ordinary people can easily get impulsive, and may unintentionally cross that line that shouldn't be crossed. In games, it's no big deal, but in real society, if 'Spider-Man', 'Batman', or 'Superman' appear, that would be a headache for people.
Yang Yunqiu, however, was not as cautious as Li Shanshan. From the start, he had discussed and created this semi-virtual fantasy world with WaWa, and even agreed to add hypnotic techniques to it. He had guessed that a portion of people with strong sensitivity might be more deeply affected, and unknowingly start doing things in real life similar to what they did in the game.
Because the mystic arts he practiced were all about guiding people towards goodness, teaching others to help and take pleasure in it, that kind of thing now seems very high-sounding and unrealistic to young people, perhaps there really are originally just people with a sense of justice who have been made to have an excessive sense of justice.
I didn't expect it to be so fast and there are still quite a few people.
These people will be assessed, and it's estimated that many of them can be recruited as assistants. First, they'll adapt to the virtual world environment, then they'll be sent to the lower planes for training, and soon they'll truly form a combat force.
What he needs now is not his assistants' ability, but their moral character must be absolutely qualified.
Yang Yunqiu smiled: "Alright, you tell Li Zifeng for me that I want some of the new recruits from his underground third floor this year, the more the better. Also, organize a special team to deal with unexpected events caused by the explosion of evil energy."
Wang Yi's mind was in a daze, and he directly put the communicator to Li Zifeng's ear. Apparently, Captain Li also knew about this matter and curiously came over to join in on the excitement.
Li Zifeng heard Yang Yunqiu's idea, covering his forehead and crying with laughter: "Please, my young master, they are just a group of ordinary people who have not received any training, do you want them to join the underground third floor?"
Yang Yunqiu smiled: "Don't worry, if they can pass my test, they must be exceptionally talented. I'm recommending them to you because they seem to have been influenced by the mysterious technique, which means their perception is stronger than ordinary people. I'll contact them again and give them a chance to take a test in a real virtual reality game. If they pass, with some training, they may not be as good as your elite subordinates, but they will still be much better than ordinary people. And the higher their perception, the easier it is for them to use the artifacts I create. When the time comes, they might even find it easier to deal with evil spirits than your people."
Li Zifeng fell silent.
Yang Yunqiu continued, "Wang Yi and the others were all selected in this way, aren't they doing a good job? Besides, I think that in the future, the outbreak of evil energy on Earth will become more and more severe day by day. You will be short-handed sooner or later, so I am preparing for the rainy day. There is nothing wrong with it. Moreover, if we can recruit them, it will also be a contribution to maintaining the dignity of the government and the police."
Li Zifeng raised an eyebrow: "Don't look at me wearing a police badge, I don't care about the face of the police."
It's just that Yang Yunqiu makes sense, and it's not a big deal either. If those people were really useful, he would be willing to recruit them. The underground third floor is now disconnected from the top, and the group of people who understand the inside story have long wanted to exaggerate the scale. It's just that there are few people who can cope with these things, so it's hard to find them even if you want to.
"Alright, as you said, the slogan they're using now - 'at your beck and call' is quite good. I'll establish a rapid response team, hmm, let's put it under the fire department's name. And don't let them just hang up phone numbers for people to randomly call, only have them handle events triggered by emergencies. However, you'll have to be named as the captain of this rapid response team, I don't have the energy to find someone else to take charge."
Yang Yunqiu thought for a moment and agreed, after all, Wang Yi and others were considered half-official people, putting on a layer of skin, occasionally borrowing the tiger's skin to show off, and doing things was also convenient.
As soon as Yang Yunqiu returned home from school, she quickly handled the matter on Earth. First, she had the doll send a message to those crazy game enthusiasts in the name of the world team, telling them that the "world" and the official decision had decided to let their organization be regularized, but before that, the world team required them to enter the virtual reality game currently under development for testing, and only after passing could they officially join the organization.
As for the posts on the official forum, they were thoroughly blocked without even needing to take action, and many gamers who came to watch the excitement were not very happy. However, the real key figures were so shocked by the official information from the world team that they were boiling with enthusiasm, and no one cared about this anymore, so nothing happened.
