Overgod Ascension

Chapter 723: Old Friends (3600 +)

Soundnest City.

In the early morning, Vidie got out of bed and the living room had been filled with tempting food scents.

Cozy yellow toasted leather with hot air, two slices of bacon fried just right next to it, and a lump of egg.

In a glass jar, hot fresh milk makes your index finger move at first glance.

“Master, today's newspaper! ”

Viddy sat in his seat and the maid took the initiative to put a napkin around him.

On a table next to him, his butler dropped the iron and sent the already burnt newspaper.

In this era, civilian technology and military and even royal technology are two concepts altogether. Although the latter two have reached the level of transistors and display screens, the ink in the printing press is still generally irrelevant, with a rough and indiscriminate taste, especially in newspapers that have just been printed, dyeing a layer of ink at the touch.

Newspapers in general, because of cost problems, can't afford very high-end technology.

Thus, in the families of a truly superior society, it is the job of housekeepers to iron newspapers that come in the early hours of the day.

“Mmm!”

After taking over the warm newspaper, after ironing, the ink had dried thoroughly, giving off a fresh scent and not a scratch of hand.

“The Science Discovery Magazine is down? ”

He drinks milk, eats it with bread and bacon, then reads the newspaper, and is surprised and feels reasoned again.

“There have been so many psychotic events in the kingdom, the other party can't even explain it at all. Angry readers have long asked it to give an explanation...”

Viddy turned over the second page of the newspaper, and a prominent title suddenly came to his attention - ‘Siberian Forest Discovery, Discovering the Trail of the Mysterious Wolf! ’

“Well, another werewolf has been found. What's wrong with the world? ”

Vidie turned her white eyes and complained.

In his life, elementary school and junior high school were no different. After that graduation trip, he came back through the obstructions of his parents, persevered in choosing the path he wanted, and walked quite well. He is now a small well-known businessman in the city of Songnesh.

It's just that he hasn't changed much, but the world is becoming more and more strange to him.

“Enrollment in a psychic class? ”

“Master of Mystics lectures! ”

“The Great Adventurer Henry Lecture? ”

……

In the copy of the newspaper, there are also a lot of advertisements and job postings. Vidie shook her head just at a glance: “Since the appearance of the werewolves, there have also been more and more liars in the kingdom under the banner of special features. If you really want to see the superpowers, why not just go to the Redemption Church, at least those magic tricks must be real! ”

With Pope Steven still in the Church of Redemption, Vidie's face could not help but show a smile.

Being able to make a friend like him was the greatest achievement of his life.

He even suspected that his career would not have been so smooth if it had not been for the influence of this halo.

“My housekeeper, do I have any missed schedules today? ”

After eating and drinking, Vidie wiped her mouth with a white napkin and chewed another piece of mint candy, asking casually.

“According to yesterday's itinerary, master, you should arrive at the company at 9: 00 a.m., the driver is already waiting outside… Also, Madame came to see you and left you a message! ”

“Oh, what is it? ”

Vidie's face turned helpless: "If you want me to enroll in some weird remedial class and meet an important college student, don't tell me. ”

“Actually, not at all! ”

The housekeeper looked a little strange: “Madame has asked me to tell you that she has prepared a wedding for you and would like you to meet your fiancée this evening! ”

“Wait a minute! ”

Vidal immediately glanced at him and said, "Fixed the engagement? Fiancée? Oh, my God... what age do the old bosses think this is? Aren't these parents supposed to have swept into the trash of history long ago? ”

“As a matter of fact, neither the master nor his wife thought so! ”

His butler said in a regrettable tone: "As your personal butler, I would also advise you to meet this Miss Lilith, who comes from a famous door in the kingdom! ”

“Okay, okay...”

Vidie sighs: “I can't imagine moving out of the house, but I can't escape the claws of the house... but to keep them from coming here and growling... you tell her I'm coming! ”

Tingling bell!

At this point, on a small round table in the living room, a golden microphone and a telephone with a ringing bell suddenly rang.

“Master, call for you, they claim to be your old classmates! ”

As soon as the butler takes over, hand over the microphone to Veedy.

“Many of my classmates have been able to meet several acquaintances since the establishment of my business office...”

Viddy muttered with dissatisfaction, taking the microphone, and he heard a voice in his ear that surprised him: "Hi! Vid, it's Steven. Do you have time for a party? Call the others! ”

“Yes, of course! ”

Vidie jumped almost immediately: “Where are you? I'll be right there?”

“No rush, I will take the airship and arrive in Soundnest City this evening with one night's free time. ”

Wu Ming across the street said.

“I know, I'll pick you up myself! ”

After taking a deep breath and dropping the microphone, Viddy immediately shouted: "Butler, go to the best hotel in town right away and book a good bakery with a banquet. ”

“Also, I'll see you at the wedding. Let's reschedule! ”

Vidie made a painful decision, and the butler raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he rarely saw the owner's eyebrow flying.

“I'm going to start prepping now and make a few more calls. Neville and Philip are definitely going to scream, and Alice... Alas... I hear she's been having a rough time...”

……

At the same moment, in an institute in Sound Nest City.

“Alice, what's wrong with you? Why did even the simplest of these parameter records go wrong?! ”

Alice was wearing the worker's clothes she had to wear when she got out of the workshop, and she had a lot of oil on her body, and she apologized, “I'm sorry, sir, I'll pay attention next time! ”

“Want another time? ”

Master's fat face was filled with anger at the moment: "Alice, do you know what the environment is? All the institutes are in bad shape, and our institutes are ready to lay off...”

Aliceton was pale.

It is also the truth that, in the present world, it is these basic scientific institutions that have the greatest impact, and unless what happens is that of supernatural capabilities, they are generally called into question.

“Now society is getting worse and worse. Even the elite from college can see our little research institute. I have received ten resumes this week...”

Alice's head was even lower when she heard the director's whereabouts.

It was a regret of her life that she had not attended university at that time. Although she had studied harder over the years, she had worked very hard every day and had to attend various training courses at night, often at no cost, and could not do either.

In fact, easier roads are not without them.

That is to give up your dreams and marry honestly and have children.

Her mother had already identified several candidates for her, and they all looked good.

But I don't know why, Alice just doesn't want to.

‘My youth, how can it just consume these things...’

Alice bites her teeth in the dark, but on the surface, she still has to apologize.

After being scolded by the director and taking on more punitive work and withholding another day's wages, Alice finally walked out of the institute, feeling as if she had fallen all over the battlefield.

Let's do it!

At this point, on the side of the road, the sound of the airbag horn suddenly rang.

“Hi, beautiful. Want a lift? ”

A guy dressed up for leisure, much like the rich second generation, opened the door of a steam sedan and bowed slightly: "I also have a complimentary dinner here! ”

“Vidie, you bastard! ”

Looking at this old classmate, Alice finally smiled relaxed.

The other side is pathetic to her first half of her life. She is unable to learn, and she can hardly catch up with the scholars and theologians.

It was just that Vidie was very lucky, that the family was in much better shape, that she had more courage, and that she was determined to start her own path.

“Aren't you going to the office today? ”

Alice asked strangely.

“Get in the car first! ”

Viddy couldn't help but ask Alice to get in the car and confess: “A few of our old classmates are getting together, and I called Inspector Phillip and Neville...”

“Philip also graduated successfully and was assigned to be a police commissioner here! ”

Alice exclaimed and suddenly responded: "No… why are you suddenly having a party? ”

“Of course it's because he's coming! ”

Vidie sighs: "Alice, I know you're strong and don't want to accept our help, but you need to know that in this highly competitive society, you need to put all your resources on the table as leverage, otherwise how can you beat people who are better off than you and harder off than you are? ”

“I know, I know everything...”

Alice muttered, and the taste in her heart was incredibly complex.

And all of this, by the time you get off the sedan and come to the compartment of the biggest hotel in the city center, has risen to its peak.

“I don't fit here, let's go! ”

She looked at the brilliant decoration of Kim Bi, and at her simple, slightly whitewashed work clothes, suddenly appeared to be inferior.

“If you're here, why are you leaving? At least meet your old friend first! ”

At the tip of Vedi's eyes, he saw a shadow and immediately called, “Neville, here! Here!!”
