My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 55

Unfortunately, Michael happened to be filming a very important action scene, which required him todo some wire stunts. He was still visibly in good shape despite being covered with dust and dirt.However, the few other actors who acted alongside him kept making mistakes, leading to themhaving filmed over ten takes of the same scene. As a result, the filming didn't go smoothly, makinghim a little impatient.

Therefore, Harry could only leave in silence while carrying his laptop. If he went up to Michael rightnow, the latter would probably knock him out on the spot.

He returned his attention to the game, only to discover that Sirius had almost annihilated his entiresect; even over a hundred players were unable to stop Sirius.

He threw out all the gears in his inventory to arm his men. Furthermore, a continuous stream ofplayers logged on and came to his rescue after learning about what happened. Even so, the systemnotifications still kept popping up, saying that more and more players were killed.

Sirius’s Health Points never seemed to drop; despite having slaughtered hundreds of players, he hadhardly lost any Health Points, looking like a killing machine that would never wear itself down. Hecarried loads of precious pills with him and ate them like they were just candies, though it wasexcruciatingly hard for other players to get even one of these.

These pills’ effects were immediately apparent after he swallowed them down in handfuls. HisVitality kept increasing, his Combat Effectiveness kept going up, and his attributes went off thecharts.

He also consumed lots of supplies in the game; even though he could slay over ten players witheach major blow, he also lost half of his Strength in the process. However, he quickly took pills afterthat to make up for the loss.

He was literally burning up money by taking pills like that. These pills cost at least a few hundredeach, yet he ate them by the handful!

Beast was frightened to death at the sight of the scene. This is the power of the rich! he thought tohimself.

At the end of the battle, everyone else in Beast's sect had either died or fled with their tails betweentheir legs, leaving him the only person left in the sect.

Without wasting his breath, Sirius carried his great sword on his shoulder and charged toward Beaststraight away. Then, with a single slash, he slashed Beast's Health Points by one-tenth as the latterwas fleeing, causing the latter's Health Points to go down rapidly.

Beast threatened as he fled, “F*ck! I'm going to call my Dad over if you hit me again!”

However, Sirius simply responded to him by attacking him with one move after another, sendinghim flying until he couldn't fight back at all.

Beast was beaten up so ferociously that he didn’t even have time to type. He desperately pressedthe keyboard buttons to try to fight back, but he couldn't stand a chance against Sirius since thelatter's skills were simply too brutal.

Moreover, he found that his skills and attributes were suppressed in Sirius's presence. He didn'tknow whether he had the wrong impression or was terrified by the beating he was taking, but hecouldn't help feeling that something was weird.

Plug-in! Sirius233 is cheating using a plug-in! No wonder he's unusually fearsome today!Unfortunately, Sirius didn't give Beast time to talk. With a single swing of his sword, he slashedBeast on the spot to the point that the latter had only a wee bit of Health Points left.

Beast said in exasperation, “How could you cheat in the game using a plug-in?”

Sirius didn’t answer him though. As his stony-faced avatar's hair danced in the wind, his face wasconcealed by some strands of hair, revealing only a pair of eyes that flashed a menacing scarletcolor. Then, he put his sword back in its sheath and made a more savage move.

With that, another system notification popped up on Harry's screen that read, “Sirius233 hasunilaterally launched the Forced Dual Cultivation Mode against No. 1 Beast of the Server!”

Beep! “The Forced Dual Cultivation Mode is starting up!’

Beep! “All your gear and Experience Points have been taken away by your opponent!"

Beep! "You have died from exhaustion! Please go back to the Novice Village and start all over again!’Harry was stupefied off-screen along with the other spectating players in the game...

Another two hours had passed when Michael finally finished filming his part for this day. When hecame over in his costume, he saw Harry looking at the screen with an ashen face.

“I heard that you were looking for me?” asked Michael as he sat down. As the makeup artist seizedthe wee bit of time to fix his makeup, he looked at Harry's laptop screen, which was still displayingthe game's interface. However, Harry's online character had reincarnated from a widely-admiredbigwig to a nameless character in the Novice Village.

He had lost all his Experience Points, gears, and weapons. Not only did Sirius wipe out his wholesect, but he also slaughtered him so thoroughly that he was forced to reincarnate as a Level 1player. More infuriatingly, Sirius even raped and killed him in public!

He died a deeply humiliating death, for his cause of death was too indescribable!

Michael was unmoved deep down inside when he learned about what had happened; on thecontrary, he even wanted to laugh. He said, “It's good that your character has died. Go andconcentrate on your acting.”

It would soon be Harry's turn to film his part, so he went to film his scenes in deep dejection.Seizing the short break, Michael quickly turned on his cell phone and watched the surveillance videoto check on Sophia.

To his surprise, he found that Sophia had not logged on to the game; she had been packing herbags and sorting the learning materials required in the military training just now.

With a flicker in his eyes, Michael switched to another surveillance video, which showed a little kidstanding in front of the computer desk.

After logging into Sirius233's account with ease, he equipped Sirius's character with all the best gearand weapons in the inventory, including a batch of disposable gears that Sirius begrudged using.After that, he installed a plug-in and barged into Beast's sect in the game.

The plug-in was very powerful. Not only was it undetectable by the game's operating system, it alsoautomatically captured and emulated the way Sirius233's character was navigated in the past, sothat the character barged in and began slaughtering in large numbers without Nathan having tonavigate it himself.

Nathan spent most of the time navigating the plug-in to dodge the Swordsman Game's plug-indetection system so that it wouldn't discover the plug-in and suspend Sirius233's account.Furthermore, he even made time to hack into Michael's surveillance equipment...

Michael was rendered speechless by what Nathan had done.

On the other hand, Sophia hadn't had the faintest idea of the bloodshed that was happening in thegame at that moment; she fell asleep after having finished packing her bags.

Nathan didn't come home from school until it was late at night. Even after he came home, he stillrefused to speak to Sophia, and his cheeks still puffed up in anger.

Sophia caressed his face before they went to sleep, saying, “Alright, be good and stop being angry.I'll play with you again after I come back from my military training.”

He'll probably put this episode out of his mind after a month, she thought to herself. Of course, thatwas just wishful thinking on her part.

The next day, all the freshmen at the university set out for the military training camp to start theirmilitary training.

Looking especially smart and energetic dressed in her military outfit, belt, and army cap, Sophia gotready to leave home early in the morning. To her surprise, Nathan caught up with her soon after shegot dressed.

Also carrying an olive-drab knapsack on his back, he dressed in a tailor-made army uniform, withhalf of his small plastic frog's head poking out of his pocket.

Amazed, Sophia said, “So you have an army uniform too, Nate? It's alright to have fun wearing anarmy uniform, but you should hurry and change your clothes to go to school.”

Nathan haughtily turned his face away and replied, “Shut up.”

Gary said, “Nate is also a freshman at the university, so theoretically speaking, he has to go formilitary training too.”

“Nate is going for military training as well?” Sophia was shocked. “That can’t be! How could Natehave military training at such a young age?”

Gary replied with a smile, “He's merely going to be a looker-on. All he has to do is replace a place to sitdown and eat watermelon while you guys undergo your training.”

Sophia was rendered speechless by his answer.

Gary then continued, “Don’t worry, Madam; I have found somebody to protect Little Master.”Sophia was upset, for she still had to look after Nathan while having her military training.

Sophia and Nathan got down at the block near the campus entrance as before and entered thecampus on foot. On this day, the campus was packed with people in military uniform, includingstudents and the army officers who came to pick them up. There were even tens of olive-drab busesparked in serried ranks in every corner of the campus, creating a magnificent sight.
