Chapter 10: I don't believe you unless you prove it to me.
"As you wish, Your Majesty."
Viserys stood there watching Illyrio and the other man leave.
If he could, he would love to fly to that fat man's house right now and enjoy the hot bath and delicious food the man was talking about.
But there was nothing he could do; the other party had come at the worst possible time. His group of adorable little leeks had all gone offline, and in order not to arouse Illyrio's suspicion, he could only make excuses and ask the other party to come pick him up tomorrow.
Who knows if the other party is used to being an assassin? How could they do something like this at night?
Sigh, sometimes knowing you're just a pawn isn't such a bad thing. As the saying goes, "With confidence comes fearlessness!"
As long as Illyrio wants to use his name to draw attention and build up strength and time for "Little Aegon," and as long as Viserys doesn't act too recklessly and his needs are met, that fatso will certainly not refuse.
"When did our King acquire such a group of loyal Targaryen subjects?" Turning the corner, the governor's carriage was already waiting. Before getting in, Illyrio glanced at the old man with the bread:
"You really should have informed me beforehand; you know, that's something you should have done."
"I'm sorry, sir."

Water friends' gaming group:
High and Low Tastes: @Everyone, brothers, I swear the first holographic game in history has been born! Please forgive my poor writing skills, I can only describe it as awesome: Ice and Fire, Ride and Blade.
Calling a mouse a duck: I second that. It gives a sense of realism, like traveling through time, especially in terms of air quality. It completely matches my stereotype of a medieval Western city. Who knows if the producers were just bored and did such a detailed job in this aspect.
Sister-in-law, I'm here: Brothers, don't believe what they said, the game is fake, it just plays Calabash Brothers on a loop when you open it.
Zhao Xiaotian, who had just been added to the group, typed with a smile, "I'm serious about squatting in the grass: Hey upstairs, it's illegal to eat alone."
Mantou Xianren: Brothers, just register quickly and you're done. There's no such thing as being awesome, only being the most awesome.
Ghostfire Boy: Goodness, how much money did you guys get? You've become legendary navigators.
Wood Cured: @Pointing at a Mouse as a Duck, is it really that amazing? No doubt about it, I'll register first.
As Viserys had predicted, the five players who went offline immediately stirred up another storm in the fan group.
What was originally just a minor incident—the supposedly 100% realistic holographic game—quickly attracted three more players to stubbornly follow suit after five netizens shared their experiences.
Besides, in the small group of only a dozen people, most of them were also drawn to the topic. Although it was just a few people constantly refreshing the chat, Viserys, even from a different world, could tell through Little Fireman that most people weren't indifferent; they were just used to lurking.
Love Pineapple Pizza: I'm not saying anything more. Since the brothers didn't get poisoned, even if this game is full of shit and urine, we men are going to swim back and forth.
I eat goji berries like rice: @High and Low Taste Salty, how much do you guys get paid for posting an ad? Is there really such an amazing holographic game that doesn't use celebrity endorsements or in-game gameplay, relying entirely on small-scale promotion?
100% guaranteed to win: I agree with the comment above, unless you guys post some gameplay footage.
The Minister of Revenue, Non-stick Pan: Let me, the hero, investigate this good man!
Wang Wu, who was holed up in his dormitory, saw that some people didn't believe him. After thinking for a while, he picked up the helmet and put it on. After a while, Wang Wu figured it out and uploaded several photos he had taken in the game to his computer.
Under the curious gazes of his roommates, Wang Wu quickly sent several photos to the group chat.
Try different flavors, high and low: [Photo] [Photo]
"Wu Zi, what are you studying?" Li Peng, the good roommate and joker, had just come out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in his mouth. He looked at Wang Wu, who was holding a motorcycle helmet with his mouth bulging, and asked.
"I didn't know that Wu Zi was hibernating in bed wearing that old helmet when we got back. He just got up and is now sitting in front of the computer, talking nonsense."
Wang Wu's roommate, Zhang Quan, who was sitting on the bed opposite him, answered Wang Wu's questions while scrolling through videos on his phone.
Song Jiang, who was lying on the upper bunk of Zhang Quan, also chimed in with his opinion.
After posting the photos, Wang Wu realized that his strange behavior had attracted the attention of his roommates. He immediately turned around and looked at them:
"Hey guys, want a good game?"
Li Peng, who was holding a toothbrush in his mouth, was stunned for a moment, then his gaze met that of Song Jiang and Zhang Quan on the bed. All three of them saw the doubt in each other's eyes.
Wang Wu left after posting the photos, unaware that this had sparked another heated discussion in the small group.
100 Guaranteed to Win: Holy crap, buddy, are you sure this photo wasn't taken on a Hollywood set?
I eat goji berries as a staple food: I think the picture is just something I found online and it's just making a big deal out of nothing.
FBI Director: I don't know if it's an internet image or not, but I'm stubborn and I'm going to test the waters of this game.
I eat goji berries like they're my main meal: Case closed! Everyone in this group except me is an actor. Tell me, do you want my money or my kidney?
Sister-in-law, I'm out: You're wrong upstairs. We don't want your money or your kidney; we just want your body.
The heated discussion within the group was divided between believers and non-believers, but Viserys, who was the group admin himself, didn't bother to mute anyone.
At this moment, His Majesty the King was watching the number of registered players surge from the initial five to ten, and he chuckled wickedly.
Alright, you're all high-quality newbies, hurry up and log on to work for your King!
Connected to another world via the internet cable, Zhao Xiaotian left the gaming group and immediately sent a message to his mysterious online friend, Tank Rearview Mirror.
As a second-generation rich kid, he was extremely excited at the beginning of the trip. After the initial excitement subsided, he keenly sensed the business opportunity through his exposure to the outside world.

Ok?
Seeing the red dots representing unread messages on the blue panel, Viserys immediately unfolded them:
I'm serious about this: Bro, would you mind telling me what your company is called?
Viserys frowned. This wasn't the behavior of a gullible sucker. You should just play your game. Why are you trying to figure out who's behind it all?
Tank Rearview Mirror: Uh, it's not that I don't trust you, brother, it's just that the company has a very strong background, and I've signed a confidentiality agreement, so I can't reveal too much to you.
Zhao Xiaotian looked at the other party's reply and sighed. He was thinking that the game had such a big prospect that his father should invest in it, so that his father would look at him with new respect.

Tank Rearview Mirror: All I can tell you is that ordinary people don't know the company's name, and as for its strength, those in the know understand. Don't make wild guesses, just focus on playing the game.
Zhao Xiaotian was stunned. He knew everything, but he had no idea that his father had someone above him!
