The Fifty-Second Councilor
February 3, 2057, evening.
Having just hung up Liu He's call, Luo Zhe entered the audiovisual room, sat on the sofa, and placed a dark blue helmet next to him.
This helmet was delivered by three men wearing the uniforms of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall after Liu He left during the day. Every War God or councilor who joins the War God Palace receives a Consciousness Sensor Helmet free of charge. With this Consciousness Sensor Helmet, one can directly enter the virtual space anywhere on Earth by wearing the helmet.
Moreover, this Consciousness Sensor Helmet is the same as the one in the Elite Training Camp, only with more and more functions, but the way it is used is the same.
Luo Zhe picked up the dark blue helmet, patted it lightly, and laughed, "Back in the Training Camp, over a hundred trainees only received two helmets in total. I never imagined that after becoming War God, everyone would have one. It seems the privileged class is everywhere!"
When the Consciousness Sensor Helmet was delivered, it also came with an instruction manual, which listed some precautions in detail. The most important point was undoubtedly—be careful to protect yourself!
Because once you put on the dark blue helmet, your consciousness will enter a virtual space, which would be troublesome if someone tried to assassinate you at that time. However, generally speaking, within the Base City and the Warrior Residential Area, no one has dared to do so.
Moreover, this Consciousness Sensor Helmet also has security devices that can detect whether anyone enters the surrounding area.
Moreover--
"Others may be afraid of security issues, but I'm not." Luo Zhe chuckled, and a black membrane instantly extended from his body, protecting him.
With the Black God Set protecting you, what's there to worry about? Even a full-force attack from a peak High-level War God wouldn't reach the defensive limits of the Black God Set.
"Safety zone set, 5 meters x 5 meters." With the security zone set, the doors and windows were already locked. Once someone intrudes into the designated safety zone, Luo Zhe's consciousness will be automatically kicked out of the virtual space.
Multiple layers of insurance!
"Whoosh!"
Luo Zhe put on the helmet, and the Black God Set extended to cover the dark blue helmet. He sat cross-legged on the ground, like a black sculpture.
Enter virtual space!
It was a quiet, large room when Luo Zhe, dressed in a long golden robe, suddenly appeared inside.
This is a huge room with an area of over 1,000 square meters. In the very center of the room is a large round bed with a diameter of three meters, and in front of the bed is an indoor swimming pool that is 10 meters wide and 20 meters long.
A bed, swimming pool, desk and chair, luxury dining table, lounge chair, yoga mat meditation area... The spacious room, spanning over 1000 square meters, is neatly divided into many areas.
Luo Zhe had already experienced the Consciousness Sensor Helmet beforehand, so he wasn't surprised at all.
Luo Zhe glanced at the "War God Palace Regulations" on the desk. The War God Palace was the strongest organization of human Fighter, jointly created by the First Speaker Hong and the Second Speaker Thor. All War God and beings Beyond War God on Earth were councilors of the War God Palace. The management of the War God Palace was the "Council of the War God Palace," and only beings Beyond War God were qualified to become councilors.
Most War God wear white robes, while only councilors like Luo Zhe wear gold robes.
The parliament has five speakers: First Speaker 'Hong', Second Speaker ' Thor ', Third Speaker ' Mo Henderson ', Fourth Speaker ' Ister ', and Fifth Speaker ' Atkin '.
These five are the five strongest individuals on Earth!
However, Luo Zhe's appearance is very likely to break this ranking. Because among the current five speakers, only the First Speaker and Second Speaker have a record of killing a senator wearing the Black God Set!
Luo Zhe walked to the floor-to-ceiling window on the south side of the room. Looking at the magnificent scenery outside, he shook his head and said, "This War God Palace is usually just a place for the War God to have fun."
This War God Palace has everything you could want: a shopping mall, an auction hall, Arena Plaza, Trial Tower, and more. As long as you have enough money, you can live a life of decadence here. Although it's a virtual space, this 100% virtuality feels exactly like reality.
"It's time to go see the other War God and councilors." Then, Luo Zhe pushed open the door and left the room.
Following the corridor, we arrived at the outer wall corridor, which was a full nine meters wide. Standing on the corridor, which resembled a city wall, and leaning over it, we looked down at the large plaza of the entire War God Palace, which contained a total of nine arenas.
Outside the square.
"Boom!" The surging waves of darkness crashed against the walls of the plaza again and again. The vast War God Palace looked like a huge palace floating on an endless black ocean.
Walking along this corridor, you soon reach the spiral staircase leading to the first-floor lobby. This lobby is about 30 meters high and over 100 meters long and wide, larger than the sports field of a typical school.
In this large lobby on the first floor, there are a large number of sofas and chairs neatly arranged. Looking around, there must be at least several thousand seats. Right now, there are nearly two thousand people gathered here, sitting in twos and threes, drinking and chatting.
"So many War God!" Luo Zhe couldn't help but hold his breath.
Those who can enter the War God Palace are at least War God! And there are nearly two thousand people below us. Even in the Elite Training Camp, we have never seen so many War God.
This place truly is a gathering place for all the War God of war on Earth!
As Luo Zhe walked down the spiral staircase along the wall, he looked down at the entire hall. Besides the many War God chatting, there were also a hundred or so waiters with outstanding looks and temperament, moving among the crowd to serve these War God.
On one wall of the hall, there is a huge display screen with the number '3499' on it.
"What does 3499 mean?" Luo Zhe wondered.
Snap!
The moment Luo Zhe stepped onto the gleaming floor tiles of the first-floor lobby, the entire lobby suddenly went dark, transforming from its previously soft and comfortable lighting into a dim gloom. The previously soothing music also vanished instantly.
"Um?"
Swish!
Almost all the War God who were talking turned to look at the stairwell, their gazes all falling on Luo Zhe!
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound that seemed to resonate through the soul, loud, enthusiastic, and joyful music immediately filled the hall, echoing throughout. At that moment, nearly a thousand War God from all over the world stood up and clapped along with the music.
They are the most elite and wealthiest group of people in human society. They stand at the top of the Pyramid of human society. At this moment, driven by the music, they become a common group, celebrating the newly elected powerful councilor, Luo Zhe, with great enthusiasm!
Swish!
A faint light shone down on Luo Zhe below.
"Today, the War God Palace welcomes a brand new powerful councilor, his name... Luo Zhe!"
A rough, godlike voice rang out!
At the same time, a three-dimensional virtual projection appeared above the hall, displaying large, three-dimensional characters: Name: Luo Zhe, Nationality: Huaxia Nation, Rank: Councilor Level. These were three simple lines of three-dimensional text, seemingly carved from stone, suspended in mid-air.
"From this point on, the total number of councilors in human society has increased by one, reaching 52!" As that godlike voice echoed through the hall once more, the number '3499' on the huge display screen on the hall wall changed to 51 in a flash, and then the 1 jumped again to 2.
Then, the number '52' on the huge display screen quickly split into high-resolution personal photos, with corresponding brief biographies of the members below. The top five photos corresponded to the five speakers, while the photos below each represented one of the 51 members.
When Luo Zhe's photo first appeared in the center of the screen, it was just a small black dot. It quickly expanded to cover the entire screen, remained still for about five seconds, and then began to shrink continuously. Finally, it shrank to the size of the other photos and was placed at the top of all the photos of the powerful members of parliament.
Then, the originally enthusiastic and joyful music began to weaken until it disappeared completely.
The light that had been shining on Luo Zhe also disappeared.
Everything returned to calm.
But the heated discussion that had been stirred up in the crowd was only just beginning to unleash its full power. The War God were all in their positions, discussing the matter with their friends.
Everyone's talking about the newly elected legislator— Luo Zhe!
There are only 52 councilors in the entire Earth, each with a well-known story, but this newly promoted powerful councilor is someone that almost no one remembers.
"Good heavens! Are our intelligence departments incompetent? They even missed such important information about a powerful senator!" A black powerhouse angrily complained about his own intelligence department.
"This powerful congressman is from our Huaxia Nation. Quickly check his intelligence and see if we can win him over to serve the country." A dignified middle-aged man instructed his attendant, "Remember, don't offend him! Even if you can't win him over, at least maintain a good relationship!"
"Bullshit! Another powerful member of parliament has emerged in Huaxia Nation!"
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Just as the War God were discussing among themselves, suddenly, a series of footsteps sounded from the stairs, and everyone subconsciously looked up.
On the spiral staircase, led by the black-haired man 'Hong' and the bald middle-aged man ' Thor ', all the speakers, councilors, and the War God powerhouses under the command of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall and the Thunder Martial Arts Hall descended one after another. The originally noisy hall immediately fell silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
