A spiral stone staircase wound around a stone pillar, and the members of the Vienna Opera Company walked up the stairs.
At this moment, Britney finally realized why Roland asked them if they had acrophobia.
It wasn't a big deal at the beginning, but when they reached a height of more than thirty meters and looked down, they were rather alarmed.
More importantly, while the stairs were wide, they were not defended by railings. The higher they went, the more uneasy they became.
"Why didn't Roland make any defense measures for us?" A female player slowly walked up against the wall. She didn't dare to look out at all, and her legs were shaking. "I'm almost peeing my pants."
"It's such a large building, and he built it in two minutes. He can't have done anything too delicate," a male player nearby explained. "It's already very impressive that he can do this. Although I don't know the level of the battle-class players, I think his abilities must be pretty good. "
Britney walked in the front and said, "I know a thing or two about the battle-class players. He must be the strongest magic class player right now."
"Tsk, tsk. If only you could seduce him into our company as a tool, Captain." The girl, who was about to piss her pants, slowly walked up while holding onto the inner wall. She said, "The theater can be built at any time, and it has very strong combat abilities. It can definitely protect our entire performance troupe and reduce the trouble we encounter."
Britney heaved a helpless sigh.
A male player behind her chuckled. "You wish, Daphne. Roland has a queen with him. She's as beautiful as Captain Britney without any Charm buff. Also, don't you see that there's a pretty girl with him? If I were Roland, I wouldn't leave two beautiful girls behind and follow the captain. "
Britney was rather unhappy.
The female player named Daphne argued, "How can you compare NPCs in a game to real people?"
"Why can't we compete?"
"Those NPCs are all fake. They're gone after they take off the virtual helmet," Daphne said matter-of-factly. Daphne said matter-of-factly, "But the captain is a real person. Even without the virtual helmet, she still exists in this world. If Roland is smart, he should choose the captain. "
"But the leader without the virtual helmet doesn't seem to be as beautiful as she is now." The male player laughed dryly.
At this moment, Britney suddenly turned around and glared at the male player angrily.
The male player knew that he had said the wrong thing and immediately shut up in embarrassment.
Daphne snapped, "You men only know how to look at a person's appearance. Can't you be more sophisticated? You're too superficial!"
"Daphne, do you like a man who weighs 250 kilograms, has no money, no car, and no house, is very gentle, and is willing to give everything to you? If you're willing to marry such a man, I'll admit that you're a woman of quality and solemnly apologize to you. "
The male player didn't want to argue anymore, but Daphne's words were too much of a blow, and he couldn't help but retort.
Daphne was so angry that her mouth almost twisted. "Xiaya, you're so annoying. You're not a gentleman at all. I don't want to talk to you anymore."
Although she also studied art, Daphne had only just turned 18 in reality, so it was normal for her to be a little spoiled.
Such bickering was actually part of the performance troupe's daily routine. Everybody else listened and laughed as they walked to the top of the pillar in a long line.
A height of more than a hundred meters could be climbed in less than two minutes if they were on the ground. But to climb up … and it was so 'dangerous', they had to walk for almost ten minutes before they reached the top.
Then, almost everyone let out a cry of "wow".
The top of the pillar was a smooth, round surface about fifty meters in diameter. It could've accommodated an orchestra of two hundred people, not just fifty.
"Take out your tools and sit down at the center." Britney clapped her hands and said, "We're waiting for Roland to come up. Then, we'll begin."
As soon as Britney's voice trailed off, a black shadow darted out from the pillar, flew into the air, and slowly landed in front of the troupe.
It was exactly Roland.
"It's great to be able to fly," Britney said enviously. "You can do whatever you want."
"It's not as good as you think." Roland smiled and looked at the performance troupe that was already seated. He asked, "Can we begin?"
A lot of things could be stored in the players' system Backpacks. Naturally, a chair wasn't a problem.
Britney took out her chair and instruments too and sat down at the center of the orchestra.
Then, a conductor walked to the front of the performance troupe with a stick in his hand, as if he was ready to conduct the performance.
"We're ready." Britney smiled at Betta.
Roland stepped back and snapped his fingers with his intact left hand. A white magic circle appeared before the performance troupe.
Britney cleared her throat and began to speak.
Half a minute later, a slightly distorted female voice echoed in Encart City.
"Because the mayor has sealed the city, we can only play music in this way. Because of the long distance, we had to cut the three plays. Also, thank you for the special venue that Roland has provided for us."
As soon as this voice appeared in the sky above Encart City, everyone in the city heard it.
Almost everybody opened their windows, walked out of their homes, or looked at the enormous pillar from the rooftops of their houses.
"The first program is the orchestral version of 'The Sound of Silence'. Please enjoy, my friends."
Then, melodious music came down from the sky.
Music in this world was almost exclusively spread by bards.
Most bards, on the other hand, played solo, and most of them were recitatives, telling one legendary story after another.
Most of the recitatives were very similar. The occasional changes were minor.
One would get bored after listening to them.
But the music in modern society was different. It was more sophisticated in terms of techniques.
It was on a completely different level.
The moment the string music of "The Sound of Silence" came out, most people were amazed and intoxicated.
The nobles thought it was great too, but they weren't in a good mood.
After "The Sound of Silence", it was an adapted version of a famous song such as "Croatia" and "A Bazaar".
Then, there were four popular songs that were more pleasant.
Because they didn't know what the people in this city liked, the performance troupe had prepared all kinds of music, including slow, sad, cheerful, and even heavy metal.
Everyone in the city stopped what they were doing and quietly looked in the direction of the giant pillar.
Even Andonara, who had a deep understanding of music, listened with great interest. If there was a song that she liked, she would even put her hands together and gently rub her thumbs against each other.
At the same time, she seemed to be trying her best to endure it.
The performance lasted more than two hours. After it was over, people were still looking at the pillar, as if they didn't want it to end just like that.
Andonara was silent for several minutes too, before she said to Roland, "The elves … are no longer the race best at music and art in the world. You are."
