There are no other fancy ingredients in it. The UEFA Cup qualifiers officially started soon in the hot summer of July. However, even without a grand opening ceremony and well-known commentators coming to help, this qualifier The game still attracts most players who are still struggling in the free world. Although it was an online competition, many players and team members from other regions rushed to Cerulean City together with the enthusiastic spectators, and then turned a game that was not originally for civilian players into a grand venue.
Although this event is actually filled with bars and Internet cafes in major areas of the city.
"If it weren't for supporting my brothers, I wouldn't have come to this place! I still have hundreds of people waiting under me, and I will soon break through the third level of the trial ring in the next few days..."
"I just got a beheading ax yesterday. The effect is to increase the power of the attack by 80% when it hits the weak point. If it hits the head, it will be a real beheading, hahahaha!"
"The people from the Peak Guild have just sent the news. They hope to let us give up the Roderick Fortress in the northern part of Eta County. In return, they will give us the remains of Abram and twenty pieces of equipment as compensation... "
"Zaraha City is now in chaos, and we still have to come here to participate in the competition! I don't know what the presidents are thinking. Have they given up on fighting for the territory vacated after Wings of Freedom left? ?"
Discussions between players, discussions between guild presidents and guild presidents... The same conversations are in this atmosphere, constantly taking place in every corner of the city, as lonely as outsiders. Mengzhu, who was sitting in the corner and had nothing to talk about in common, then dropped the drink in his hand, stood up reluctantly, and made way for the other four new customers who had just arrived at the bar. Seat: "Forget it, it's almost time anyway..."
In the darkening sky, she walked out of the bar and politely turned around and closed the door behind her. Then, after passing through several bustling streets, she returned to her home deep in the alley of District D. Without noticing whether someone was following her secretly, she sighed a few times and then got into her game cabin. After a familiar operation, she entered the server used for the competition.
Different from the world they used for training before, Mengzhu entered the competition server at this time, and it was already the competition server used by the alliance to officially start the game.
"Is everyone here?"
"Of course, I'm just waiting for you."
"...I originally thought you would come to Hualan City like last time, but it made me wait for so long."
"Knowing that your family is poor, I won't let you continue to spend money."
After a brief exchange of greetings with her teammates, the little girl dropped the shaking fist in her hand angrily. Her eyes that were originally looking at the arena marking the starting position gradually became firmer, and she seemed to let go of her inner feelings at the same time. The last trace of softness: "Okay, then just concentrate on playing the game... Everyone, work hard and get back the first prize."
"I really want to win the championship." Black Corn on the side heard the sound and shook his head with a bitter smile: "Everyone is a professional player now, so don't embarrass yourself, right?"
"Our identity is just a symbol, and there is still a big gap between us and those professional players supported by clubs." Duan Qing on the other side explained in a low voice: "The league will also clean up the list of professional players with no results from time to time. Eliminate from the list players who only have names but have no real abilities..."
"That's why we have to work harder!" Xiao Hongchen, who shouted, interrupted Duan Qing's explanation with an excited look: "Prove our strength and let the so-called top guilds see... We are also very strong of!"
"I don't know where you get your confidence." The evil young man from Jiecheng standing next to him sighed helplessly: "Although we have worked overtime and practiced for so many days, compared with the real masters... we It’s still far from enough.”
"We, our practice must be effective." Still maintaining the posture of holding the staff, the red-haired Qianzhihe looked at Duan Qing with an expression full of trust: "That's what Brother Qingshan did for us. Tailor-made training plan, and everyone practices so hard..."
"I agree." Lost Dream, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "We should... be able to defeat some of them."
"The premise is that you have carefully practiced the teamwork I taught you."
Looking at the arena in the distance that was constantly swallowing up the participating people, Duan Qing reminded everyone in a low voice: "Although the tacit understanding of those professional teams is definitely not bad, this is the only place where we can beat each other. ...By the way, do none of you really want to sign up for the individual competition?"
The gradually lowered conversation extended forward as the team moved forward, slowly blending into the road in front of the arena. The sound gradually became inaudible, and was finally swallowed back as the atmosphere gradually became tense. into their respective mouths. Looking at his teammates' expressions that gradually became unnatural due to the change in mood, Duan Qing couldn't help but let out a few wry smiles. However, before it was his turn to use words to adjust everyone's mental state, another small trouble appeared. Put it in front of him: "...huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"This system... doesn't seem to let me in."
"You won't be allowed in? Why?"
Stopping at the edge of the dark hole of the arena, the eyes of the rest of the team invariably focused on Duan Qing. They saw that he had been operating on the system interface that no one could see for a long time, and finally he pulled himself up. The corner of his mouth: "...Well, it seems you can only go in by yourself."
"……ah?"
"The waiting seats for the players seem to be separated from the spectator seats this time."
After saying these words calmly, Duan Qing retracted his operating finger: "Because I am not a contestant, I can only go where the audience is..."
"Hey, can't the coach do it too?" Mengzhu on the side hurriedly jumped to the side of the arch: "There are so many coaches in the world, won't they also get in in the end?"
"They said they were coaches, but in the end they actually went down to play a few games." Recalling the UEFA Cup matches he had seen when he had participated in the game before, Duan Qing shook his head and replied: "It should have been when I signed up. , and the Angry Demons were recruited as team members and so on..."
"Then, then we will register you as a member of the competition." Mengzhu raised his fingers and hurriedly operated in the air: "You should be able to change it now, right? Register as a substitute member or something..."
"Substitute members can sign up at any time, as long as they are not in the middle of a match." Duan Qing, with a smile on his face, then held down the opponent's arm: "But the problem is... I will definitely not be able to participate in the match."
"Why, why!"
"...Anyway, don't worry, I will still be watching you from the audience."
Tightening his fingers slightly, Duan Qing passed encouraging glances to the eyes of other people around him. His evasive words then turned to the front, still entering the arch of the crowd: "Relax, It’s just a game. When you really stand in front of those teams, you will realize that they are also a group of ordinary players who make mistakes and make mistakes..."
"But, but..."
"You probably haven't forgotten the things I taught you before, right?"
Blinking at Mengzhu, Duan Qing gestured around, and then his low voice, together with the hands holding the little girl's shoulders, fell in her ears: "Believe me, I will definitely be able to guess it. As long as you follow my instructions...you can at least get a good ranking."
"Go ahead, I will always watch you." He waved his hand, and the retreating figure disappeared into the arch in front of the others: "Then..."
"Waiting for your triumphant return."
A strong light that was completely inconsistent with the corridor in front of him then appeared in front of Duan Qing, followed by a spectacular scene inside a grand arena. After realizing that the teleportation was completed, he put away the encouraging smile he had been maintaining. , began to look around at the mountain of people gathered in the auditorium like a football field. A rolling ball of chaotic light is gathering over the open space in the center of the arena, seeming to indicate a live broadcast that has not been formed because the game has not started, and the audience who are also waiting for the start are also using There are various ways to kill the time before waiting: "Collecting equipment! Selling equipment! All kinds of latest weapons and equipment, potions and enchantments! Grenade, explosives and magic products! Quality and quantity are guaranteed. Interested parties can interview!"
"I'm still optimistic about Jianghu this time. Although the second best player in the world won the team competition last time, the people in Jianghu were also divided into teams last time. They should learn their lesson..."
"Nan Tieshan! I have been looking for you for a long time. No one is allowed to leave after school today! I want to challenge you!"
"I heard that the Wings of Freedom this time still adopted the tactic of casting more nets. It is simply stupid. Not to mention being the second best in the world, even with the headwind and leisurely Weizard, the current comprehensive strength is higher than They are much stronger..."
"What do you think?"
Similar discussions kept coming to his ears. Duan Qing chose a random seat casually, but a questioning voice immediately sounded in his ears, like a friend seeking help because he couldn't argue with him. A supportive passerby: "Is Wizard hopeful this time?"
"How do I know, hehehe..."
"Hey, why are you watching the game if you don't have any ideas? Are you just a fake fan... Which team do you like?"
"Um... I came to watch my friends compete, just to support them. I don't know where they will end up, so..."
Seemingly confirming his previous statement, the two players who waved their hands ignored Duan Qing's presence, and he was so happy that he also retracted his embarrassing laughter and turned his eyes to the person in front of him. The center of the arena. The chaotic light group that was still constantly surging also changed slightly as Duan Qing watched. It became clear as the volume gradually expanded. The prompt sound belonging to the system also appeared on each person. The audience's ears instantly drowned out the noisy sound: "All participating teams have arrived and the competition is about to begin."
"The entry of the players is in progress...the entry is complete and the competition map will start to be loaded——"
"Loading completed. Countdown - 10 seconds."
"five four three two one……"
boom!
A loud roar like the creation of the world then rang in the ears of all players. The chaotic light group originally located in the center of the arena suddenly began to expand rapidly, with an edge of gray-black light that quickly broke through the seats of all spectators. , flew far away towards the edge of the boundless world, and the endless darkness and the spreading chaos enveloped the entire arena. At the same time, it also completely replaced the clear water and blue sky originally located near the arena, which was unique to the ground. Brown then appeared at the foot of the entire space together with the settling roar, and the audience who were looking around hesitantly said at the end of their field of vision: "Look! It's below!"
"We...are in heaven?"
"Is that...the arena? What kind of perspective is this?"
"It's a true God's perspective, but... this is too inconvenient, right? It's so far away that you can't even see people clearly..."
"It seems like you can control your viewing angle."
Amidst the exclamations of countless players, Duan Qing muttered to himself in a low voice: "Well... In this case, I should be able to fly down."
"Wow, it's true." The two players who were originally sitting next to him heard the sound and immediately started operating for a while: "It is indeed like this! My brother is awesome, can't we go wherever we want now... …”
"The only thing that can be controlled is the perspective, and you are not really flying in the sky. What's more... there are already wind magicians who can fly. What's the big deal about flying in the sky..."
"What? Who can fly in the sky? Is it Lei Ruotian or Hu Luansen? I don't believe it, I don't believe it, unless there is a video to prove it..."
Rubbing his forehead, Duan Qing once again ignored the new round of quarrel between the two people next to him, and then operated the system interface, integrating the camera-shaped logo representing his own viewing angle into the sky that was flying downwards. among the army of cameras. The vast battlefield unfolded by chaos seemed to have gradually taken shape at this time, with various landforms extending towards the horizon that was difficult to reach. Duan Qing, who was completely different from other hesitating spectators, then chose his own direction. Quickly moving toward the distance in that direction: "A9..."
"It should be over there."
