Chapter 2 - Tag Team

"Let's see which world I should go into next," Liu Zhi said, scrolling through hundreds of different worlds on a bronze mirror that worked like a smartphone screen.

 

Thud!

 

"Hey, it's my chance now," Liu Ran roared, storming into his room.

 

"Your chance…" Liu Zhi stared back at her.

 

Seeing her brother's reaction, she knew he wasn't planning to share with her. She tried to snatch the bronze mirror from his hand, but all in vain.

 

"Hey, why don't we form a team entering the same world this way? We can fight him together at the end." Liu Ran said, knowing there was no way, he would let her play alone.

 

"A tag team, you would only be a burden for me." Liu Zhi mocked her.

 

"If I am not in, you also can't go. Hmph!" She said, threateningly.

 

"Huh, what can you even do to stop me?" He sneered at her, ready jump into a random world.

 

"Mo…"

 

"Shut your mouth," Liu Zhi instantly appeared in front of her, his hand covering her mouth.

 

Liu Ran stared at him with wide eyes as he lifted his hand from her mouth.

 

"So, which world are we going," She asked happily.

 

"Um, let me think," Liu Zhi again started scrolling through multiple worlds.

 

With Liu Ran peeking from the side, as she selected the planet in the middle of his scrolling.

 

"Let's go to this one, there are even mechas," she spoke excitedly.

 

He glanced at the world, and it was a 3-star world. With his current strength, he could easily enter the top 100 rankings of any 3-star world.

 

"It's been a long time, let's see what this world brings," Liu Zhi thought. 

 

In recent times, he has been busy struggling through the 5-star world for survival.

 

Now, it's time to dominate the world.

 

"Let's begin," Liu Zhi said, pressing the start button on the screen.

 

3, 2, 1…

 

Their vision turned blurred for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the ground surrounded by broken buildings.

 

"Help… someone please… save my daughter."

 

He was trying to lift the dizziness when he heard a woman cry. He lifted his head to see what was really going on here.

 

"What the fuck is this? Straight into war, how could I be this unlucky/"

 

He murmured, stretching his body a bit, before joining the battle.

 

Far away from here, in the Silver Moon City.

 

In a luxurious villa, a young girl was rubbing her eyes while sitting on her fluffy bed.

 

"Miss, you are awake. Should I bring you a morning tea?" A maid asked her.

 

"Tea… no, where is my phone?" She replied lazily.

 

 

In the war zone, where the mutants had almost destroyed the whole city, all the mutants were gathering at the same location.

 

Amidst these mutants was a handsome young man carrying a blood-red sword in his right hand and a black spear in his left. As he soloed the whole mutant army.

 

"Who is this guy? Does anyone know him?" A warrior with broken armour asked, staring at the unstoppable mutants being massacred in front of him.

 

"Maybe he is from headquarters. We asked for reinforcement weeks ago, but he came too late. If he had come just a few days earlier, the city could have been saved." Another man who was helping civilians escape sighed.

 

While Liu Zhi was having warm up with mutants, a giant black mecha appeared above the city, its canons pointed at the middle of the city where all the mutants had been gathered.

 

"Thanks for making work easy, little friend," The man driving the mecha murmured as he fired all missiles at the Liu Zhi and mutants.

 

Swoosh!

 

Instantly, hundreds of explosions rang through the city as the smoke clouds filled the air.

 

When the smoke cleared, there was nothing left except for the charred, dead bodies of mutants.

 

The giant mecha landed on the ground, satisfied with the results. As he began clearing the mutants who survived the explosion.

 

While the mecha was clearing the mutants, its sensors automatically showed an alert on the driver's screen, and in the next second, the whole mecha split into two.

 

Inside, the driver was completely shocked to find the roof gone from his head, as he fearfully looked at the young man standing beside him, whose face was slightly charred, clothes gone.

 

"That was the only pair of clothes I have. Are you gonna compensate for it, right?" He said to the driver with an ugly smile.

 

"Mr I… I… didn't mean to harm you?" The driver explained while stuttering.

 

"No worries, just take off your clothes and give me your bank cards and let bygones be bygones."

 

A few minutes later, Liu Zhi was walking out with other civilians, dressed in new clothes. While the driver was still standing beside his chopped mecha, wearing pink panda underwear, shivering in the cold.

 

 

Compare Liu Zhi's struggle; Liu Ran was currently struggling with a much bigger problem.

 

"Which should I play first, Aa…"

 

She was extremely frustrated because she had just bought 100+games and didn't know which to start first.

 

"Miss, should I call the doctor if you aren't feeling well?" The maid quickly said after hearing her frustrated scream.

 

"No… I'm just slightly tired," she said, as she started scrolling through the games again.

 

"Young Miss, your grandfather is here to see you," Another maid came in haste.

 

"My grandfather…" She thought for a bit, as the vision of the past flashed in front of her eyes.

 

The girl whose body she was in right now was called Silvia Rowan, the sole heir of the Rowan family.

 

Her grandparents adore her the most, even more than her parents.

 

She quickly stood up and went to meet her grandpa with open arms.

 

"Grandpa…"

 

Seeing the old man sitting on the sofa, she quickly jumped on him, giving him a tight hug.

 

"Grandpa, I missed you a lot."
