[Hegemony Company New Moon City Branch, Secret Meeting Room]
Zhao Yiming stood alone in front of the giant holographic screen, the walls and floor of the room pitch black, only the screen's cold blue light revealing him clearly.
The screen was divided into six sections, showing not real people but abstract images.
The King, with an imposing and lofty gaze.
The Empress, both beautiful and cold.
The towering and solid Chariot.
The Bishop, with a face full of sorrow.
The Knight, with eyes sharp as blades.
The Pawn, with a resolute and unyielding expression.
In front of the six massive holographic images, Zhao Yiming seemed like a humble ant, needing to exert effort just to look up at them.
Silence spread with a sense of oppression, time seemed to stall, every second stretched infinitely.
Then, a deep voice sounded, the Pawn spoke first: "Zhao, New Moon City has been quite lively recently."
