The sun gradually rose high enough to shine across the entire grassland. The grand gathering in the central grassland became more lively than ever with the beginning of a new day, and the series that happened yesterday and the night before were hidden in the sky. The events in the darkness did not seem to have much obvious impact on the Barish Conference here. Gathering near the martial arts field inside Mi Ti Ling, batches of participating warriors representing different tribes were also preparing for the competition with the support of their respective clan leaders and other important figures such as elders. There were many of them. The idle tribal warriors who have been eliminated but are still staying here, and the members of the small tribe who have already passed two or three rounds of the competition but have suffered huge battle losses and scars, are still surviving in the competition schedule. : "Krim's injury hasn't healed yet?"
"His right shoulder was shot by an arrow in yesterday's game. Now he can no longer use his right hand, but he just told me that he can continue to play."
"Forget it, it's better not to let him continue to play. Instead of forcing himself so hard, it's better to let him recover from his injuries before contributing to the tribe. Let's forget about today's battle."
"But Mr. Patriarch! We have lost enough combat power! Both Team 12 and Team 29 are unable to fight normally due to lack of team members! If Team 3 has such a problem again -"
"It doesn't matter."
After raising his hand to stop the tribal player in front of him, the figure known as the clan leader sitting in the center of countless tribal warriors then whispered: "If the team cannot be assembled, just break up the incomplete teams. Team members are added to other teams that are missing members to ensure the stability of the overall battle."
"Yes, but this way our team will become smaller! We almost lost the duel yesterday because of the incomplete formation. If we continue to reduce the number of team units-"
"When I first taught you this fighting method, I considered this possible problem. After all, no one can guarantee that your mixed elite distributed combat system can always guarantee no casualties." He stretched out his hand to interrupt the argument of another tribesman in front of him. The tribe leader who was surrounded by a cloak and covered his face continued to reply in a low voice: "There are more people, and there are more people, and there are fewer people, and there are fewer people." , As long as the system is intact, even if one or two teams are missing, our formation can continue to flow."
"Corona, Balgu, I leave it to you." Still lowering his head, the leader of what looked like a small tribe kept thinking and gesturing while holding a parchment page in his hand: "No If you join the third team, the pressure on your side will be even greater. If there is really no other way, you can move closer to the left and right sides of each other to make up for the gap and facilitate mutual support and exchanges."
"yes."
Amidst the echoes from all around, the patriarch closed the page that looked like a tactical layout in front of him, then turned around and groped around behind him: "The overall formation will be affected by our changes this time. The looseness of ten angles is not a big problem, as long as people are not observing us and studying us, they will not notice such subtle changes."
"Our overall fighting style will not be affected by this, and your hard training for many days will not be wasted. But remember, we cannot relax in the transformation of formations, and the gaps created by the enemy must be filled as soon as possible. ." The patriarch raised his head slightly, revealing a little of his childish and pointed white chin: "The absent Corim and his third team are watching you below. Just think of it as fighting with his unyielding will."
"But clan leader, our duel opponent today is the Kolya clan." Amid another wave of echoing voices, the clansman who had asked the question before asked his question in a low voice again: "They are the most powerful clan. A tribe that is good at attacking fortresses, and Crox in the tribe is also a brave and famous warrior on the entire grassland. Can our formation really be able to stop them?"
"Have some confidence in yourself." The movement paused for a moment, and then the patriarch who looked at this man let out a few low laughs: "And this is what I want to say next."
"It's not like I haven't investigated anything."
The hand that was groping backwards appeared in front of everyone again. What appeared in the hands of this clan leader was another sheepskin scroll with densely packed small words: "After learning that our opponent today is the Kolya clan, I deliberately spent After some time to investigate the intelligence of this tribe, although they are indeed extraordinary in strength and have defeated all their enemies in previous battles, their battle damage is not small, especially in the last battle. , most of their archery troops were destroyed by the opponent's 'exchange tactics'."
"This is good news for us, because without bows and arrows as cover, the shield bearers in each of our teams can focus more on the defense directly ahead." The clan leader read. The content recorded on the parchment roll in his hand also said bit by bit what he wanted to instruct: "The second team, the sixth team, the seventh team, and the eighth team - especially you, as the main axis in the center of the formation, When facing the spearmen of the Kollia tribe's vanguard, I allow you to shrink your formation as much as possible, pick up your shield, and give your teammates the chance to counterattack."
"Yes. But..." After first agreeing to the explanation of the clan leader in front of them, the several clansmen who were pointed out and looked fully armed and powerful lowered their voices again: "If we only focus on defense, He is still very passive when facing a real strong man. I heard that Crox is a warrior who is good at using a sledgehammer. If he cannot use dodge to move the formation——"
"Didn't I teach you how to change the formation before? You just need to make sure that the overall formation does not move." He answered casually, but the corners of the mouth of the clan leader who was shrouded in a hood curled up in a mysterious way. Tiaoqiao: "Besides - Crox shouldn't appear."
"Based on this intelligence I have, he's going to play on the other side today."
A huge burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the competition scene in the martial arts field ahead, accompanied by a huge howl from one of the winners of the competition. A herald from the Zhuang Sacrificial Clan followed with two A guard came to the group of tribes that were gathering together to discuss tactics, and reminded them loudly, who were still turning to look in the direction of the cheers: "Get ready, Na Ke! It's your turn soon!"
"Understood." He gestured to the other party with the received action, and the clan leader who was surrounded in the center also pulled the scroll in his hand to cover his body again: "Anyway, according to the information in my hand, Korok Si previously signed up to participate in the selection ceremony for the Lord Divine Envoy, and today is also the day of the competition there, so he probably won’t have the chance to participate in the confrontation with us.”
"Okay!" Amidst the small boiling scene that broke out among the tribe members, one or two tribesmen calmed down first: "Wait a minute, why did Crooks participate in the competition over there? He and Koroks The relationship between the Lia tribe should not be as bad as the outside rumors say, and they are not the kind of people who would give up the tribe for personal interests and glory."
"Of course those rumors from the outside world are false. The purpose is to send Crox out to participate in the selection of the divine envoy and find a way out for the entire Kolya clan." The voice of the clan leader who answered still sounded mysterious. : "This matter has not been announced to the outside world. Crokes always goes to the other side to participate in the competition very late. The purpose is to stagger the time of the two competitions, thus creating the opportunity to participate in two competitions at the same time. .”
"That's right, Kilger also said about the selection ceremony at the Divine Envoy. I heard that the games there are very free. No matter when you go, the game arrangements can be made for you immediately." The tribesman answered immediately, and then showed a doubtful expression again: "But in this case, Crox's situation should be the same. Why can't he do this today?"
"Because there has been another change in today's selection ceremony." He raised the sheepskin scroll in his hand again, and the patriarch wrapped in a black cloak finally answered with a bit of joy: "That divine envoy She and her messenger came up with a new way to compete."
"Contestants who still want to advance should have been called over by now to get ready."
****************************
Not only the Kolia and Koroks, but also the countless contestants who have stayed on the central grassland and participated in Duan Qing's side still have many similar situations. Most of them were also eliminated by their respective tribes or civilization. Someone who was sent here to take advantage of it, or a brave man who was sent here secretly to make a bet. Duan Qing, who had not been informed of this situation by any large tribe, was naturally aware of this arrangement that happened under his nose. Those who had been included in the observer list by Nasia early because of their obvious strength and performance. The person's background had already been thoroughly investigated by the capable Ningyu Ninglan, so when these "unknown warriors" among all the contestants also appeared in front of him, this gray The smile on the face of the magician in robe also clearly showed the word "satisfaction": "Very good, thank you everyone for your support and continued enthusiasm for our competition."
"Just like yesterday's hunting competition, today's competition will also adopt some unusual methods." He looked around at the faces of countless warriors standing in front of the stone platform, and his smile gradually faded a bit: "Considering that Based on the strength you showed in the hunting competition yesterday and your performance in the subsequent series of events, today's competition will be designed to be more dangerous."
"We have gained enough courage! No matter how powerful the beasts and monsters are, they cannot be our opponents!" A tribal warrior standing in front also raised the long knife in his hand: "Those people from the big tribes It’s the same thing when we come! No one can defeat us!”
"Very good, I like your ideas and momentum that can be called 'reckless'." Duan Qing nodded his head again, grinning and then slowly walked down the stone where he was. Taiwan: "Then without further ado, let's get started as soon as possible."
"If our estimate is not wrong, today's battle may last for a long time."
With the help of the Nasu people who were responsible for maintaining order, Asahi Dongsheng and others, the gray-robed magician took the lead in walking to the first of the hundreds of contestants and warriors lined up here, and then stretched out his hand to him. Something was drawn on the front of his chest, and he stretched out his hand in the direction of the stone platform he was walking down: "I will use the power of magic to carve a mark on you, and then you can enter the competition area through the teleportation circle. - Remember, don’t walk around randomly after arriving at the target location, and don’t be surprised by everything in front of you, because I will tell you the rules of the game one after another.”
"What is that drawn in front of me?" Among the participating warriors looking at each other in confusion, the first warrior standing in front of Duan Qing gestured to the giant ax in his hand and asked in a muffled voice: "Is it for dueling? "
"It can be regarded as, at least it can be regarded as a kind of... uh, blood volume statistics for you." Duan Qing had already turned to the second warrior, and replied aloud without turning his head: "The runes are on The filled magic energy will detect your life strength, and when the strength drops to a certain level, it will trigger another teleportation rune mark, thus sending you to the designated location."
"Although I don't know if there will be deviations or inaccuracies about your 'low life strength', at least the effect can be guaranteed because our team leader has tested it for you with his life." He used another Pointing towards his back with one hand: "Just think of it as a kind of insurance, an insurance that is enough to save your lives."
"How can a real warrior use this kind of insurance?" He frowned slightly, and then the first tribal contestant also waved his giant ax and made a dissatisfied voice: "No matter what kind of enemy he is, he will fall in ancient times. Under Mululu’s giant ax! My ax and I don’t need such insurance!”
"Why, you don't believe it?" Duan Qing, who was still concentrating on describing the second magic rune of the second warrior, seemed to have no strength to explain: "If you don't believe it, I won't stop you. Anyway, this is The Tao runes were originally not within the scope of the envoy's instructions, but were a personal 'gift' from me."
"Those who don't want to accept the gift can go through the portal now."
