《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 105: Showing the Game.

When they entered the highway, Ingrid asked, "What restaurant are we going to this evening?"
"I was thinking about Japanese food. What do you think?" Luan asked.
"That sounds great to me." Ingrid smiled.
When they arrived in front of Saulo's house which was on a hill, five imported cars were parked in the drive. In addition, security was greater than this morning. Many of them Luan did not know, so it was easy to guess that they were security for Saulo's guests.
After parking the car, Luan took the laptop and a file folder, and got out of the car and opened the door for Ingrid, and offered his hand for her to hold.
"Thanks." Ingrid got out of the car, and they walked hand in hand towards the entrance.
"Mr. Dimas, welcome!" Saulo's guards recognized him and said respectfully. The other security guards on the other hand looked at Luan and Ingrid, not very respectfully, but they did not cross the line since they knew that Luan was someone they could not provoke.
"Mm." Luan nodded, and with Ingrid he passed them and started up the stairs.
Just a minute later, one of the security guards murmured, "Wow, this girl is very hot. I wonder how much she earns to be with him?"
"Idiot, what are you going to do if they hear?" another murmured.
"Relax, they are already gone. There is no way for them to hear-"
Before he could finish, Ingrid murmured something in Luan's ear and took a small stone from her right side and threw it at the man. At first, the security guard wanted to laugh, since he thought it wouldn't even be able to reach him. However, the stone never seemed to have been thrown, until someone screamed.
"Your face, your face is bleeding!" A security guard shouted.
Only now did the pain come, and he saw a lot of blood seeping from his cheek.
Ingrid stared at the security guard and said solemnly, "Say that again, and next time I will hit that poisonous tongue of yours."

"I, I was wrong, forgive me!" He didn't know how she had managed to do that, however, he didn't doubt her words. The security guard almost pissed himself when he thought about the possibility of her making a mistake when she had hit him in the head. Although he was a bit of an idiot, he was not a total fool. He knew that she had thrown the stone even faster than a bullet. This was not something that an ordinary person could do.
Saulo's guards felt like laughing at the security guard's stupidity. They didn't see it in person, but they knew that Luan and his family were far from normal. The image of the stone sinking into the floor of Saul's courtyard was heavily etched in their minds.
Only when Ingrid and Luan's silhouette disappeared did the security guards breathe again. "My god, I thought I was going to die! This girl is not normal..."
"Idiot, that's why I said you should think before you speak! You're so lucky that shewas the one who retaliated. If it were the boy, I wouldn't say you would be so lucky. From the look on his face, I can tell he's used to killing. If he wanted to, you would already be dead," a security guard who was in the army and had gone through many things said.
"You're right. I will not repeat the same mistake." Somehow, Ingrid's warning had made the security guard reflect on his own actions.
"Luan and Ingrid, you are here!" Saulo had a pleasant smile when he saw the two enter, accompanied by a maid.
There were five men sitting next to Saul; they all had a rigid expression, and they each had a very oppressive aura. However, the moment they felt the presence of Luan and Ingrid, they felt like cats cornered by a pitbull. Luan was still fine; he had managed to restrict his aura. However, Ingrid was still learning, and those who were more sensitive to people's aura felt angst under the pressure.

Among them was Rogerio Levy Cardoso, Elias' father.
"Haha. Luan, it's good to see you again." Rogerio laughed as he stood up to give Luan a hug.
Luan, seeing this, asked Ingrid to hold the laptop and the folder with the files.
Since he and his wife, Olivia, started practicing the body technique, the days had become more colorful...
"Uncle Rogerio, it's good to see you too." Luan returned the hug.
After distancing himself, Rogerio looked at Ingrid.
"Are you Ingrid, yes?" Rogerio smiled at her and said, "You look even more beautiful since the last time I saw you at Bradesco's birthday party."
"Thanks." Ingrid smiled slightly.
"Good evening. I'm happy that you all came here to hear my proposal." Luan reached out his hand and greeted everyone with a handshake.
"Humph! I just hope it's not a waste of time. I came here today because Mr. Saulo insisted that I come. Otherwise, even if someone was very rich, this sort of thing would have meant nothing to me." The man who spoke was Edson Leopoldo Aguiar. He wore an army short-sleeved jacket and had a stiff expression. He wore glasses and his hair was gray. Edson Leopoldo Aguiar was close to 70 years old and was an Army General.
Luan was not bothered by Edson's way of speaking; he just treated it with indifference. If this man didn't want to cooperate? Okay, Luan wasn't going to lose anything from it.
"Stay with yours, Edson." Rogerio, on the other hand, was a little upset when he heard this. "If you are upset, leave now. You should be honored just to be invited by Mr. Saulo. You don't want him to waste your time? I think you shouldn't waste Luan's time."
"You're talking nonsense." Edson did not believe what Rogerio said. Although he could feel that Luan and Ingrid were not normal, he didn't think much about it.
"Silence!" Saulo was slightly annoyed to see that his guests were doing this, and when he spoke, his aura was so dense that it made Rogerio and Edson feel suffocated. "I invited you all here because I consider you friends, but if you think you are wasting time, you can leave now!"
"I said too much. I'm sorry." Edson apologized when he heard Saulo speak so harshly.
"Excuse me." Even though he didn't believe he was wrong, Rogerio apologized and sat down.
"Luan, Ingrid, don't just stand there. Come and sit." Saulo smiled as he spoke to them.
For the five people who were invited, they were surprised when they saw Saulo's mood change so much when he addressed Luan and Ingrid. As a result, their expectations had increased a little.
"Okay." Luan nodded and brought Ingrid to sit beside him.
Now, around a glass table, all eight people were sitting in silence until Luan said, "I don't want to make you all waste a lot of time. I'll be straightforward and show you a little bit of the game I'm creating and talk about my goal."
Luan asked Ingrid for the laptop and he placed it on the glass table and opened it. When turning on the laptop, he opened the game and turned the screen to them, leaving the game in automatic mode where the generated avatar moved by itself. Logically, this role was something only he as the Game Administrator could do. While the puppet of the game made a series of movements, Luan explained to them his objective of launching the game, as well as his intention to collaborate.
An old woman in her mid sixties asked, "Can you show some of your strength?"
"Yes." Luan nodded and stood up. Then he asked Saulo, "Is it okay if I make a hole in your wall, grandfather?"
