The traders who were walking stopped their busy steps, the nobles who greeted them stopped chatting, and the residents of the Principality in every corner of the city of Tania also stopped one after another because of this grand event hosted by the adventurers. Among the streets passed by players who are constantly running back and forth. Some busybodies then chased these players in all directions of the central square. Vendors on the street even began to smell the gold coins and moved to the place where these people gathered, pointing. , the crowds waving their arms and applauding in the streets and alleys have become more and more crowded as time goes by: "It seems that no matter which world we go to, people's habit of watching the excitement will not change. "
"Fortunately, we have the most advanced surveillance system on this continent, as well as the most convenient and fast magic signal broadcast system. Otherwise, no matter how many teams of reporters are sent, it is probably impossible to take care of everything for today's game."
"As the main stage, we still can't cover everything. We can only choose the liveliest and most eye-catching event to broadcast, and hope that they will not act like a demolition team, or that our audience will receive our The commentary was finished before..."
"Premise: It is a game that we think is exciting. Not to mention that major guilds and professional players have their own fans and supporters. Even players passing by probably have each other's preferences and tastes, and they may not be willing to follow. Our perspective travels here.”
"Since all the battlefields are set in this city, it must be very convenient for the audience to watch whichever game they want."
The war of words provoked by Duan Fenglei's previous opening speech was quickly overshadowed by the real battles that broke out in every corner of the city. The countless registration teams that had originally gathered in the central square had already used their best speed to Arriving in all directions of the city, sporadic fighting sparks quickly arose in the scattered streets of major cities centered on the central square, accompanied by some of the unknown onlookers pointing and pointing. At the same time, voices were asking: "What's going on? What's going on with these adventurers today?"
"I don't know. I heard it's a battle competition that they hold among the adventurers every year. This year it was suddenly chosen in our city."
"Why did you choose our city? Won't they destroy our home by fighting like this? Guards! Where are the guards? Come and stop them! The walls of my manor are about to collapse!"
"Don't worry, didn't you see our guards guarding over there? There are also adventurer judges they sent over, and - look! That magician is wearing the magic robe of the Council of Mages!"
"So each group is composed of an adventurer and a Mage Council magician as joint witnesses, right?"
Crouching on the city wall that has been repaired and now showing curved lines, Duan Qing, wearing a gray magic robe, looked down at the boiling city interior: "The arrangements are quite good, Jianghu This time we should have spent a lot of money.”
"I heard that Jiang Hu spent tens of millions of gold coins just to hire these magicians to interfere in these so-called 'mundane' affairs." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was taking care of his leather boots, stood aside and then nodded. He said the information he knew without any hesitation: "Of course, this must be done for the sake of Fernando Wiggins's nod of agreement, otherwise many members of the Mages Council would not pay attention to these so-called 'mundane' matters at all. Bring up any interest."
"Even so, this scene still looks very scary." Using his own bow and arrow in front of him, squinting his eyes and constantly aiming left and right, Baibu Wushuang replied with a worried look: "When I think that so many people are rushing towards My body can't stop trembling as I wait for us to come."
"Are you scared? You can't suppress the excitement of fighting!" Qian Zhihe, who was squatting behind in a red magic robe, then jumped in front of Duan Qing with a look of joy on his face: "Come on! Let them come! I can't wait for them to see how awesome I am!"
"Calm down, we are still far from the end."
With a slight sigh, Duan Qing, who led this strange team here, also stopped his overlooking action: "Let me confirm the rules again: One-on-one, people who sign up for the competition can start from the same person who signed up. You choose among people as your opponent for advancement, and whoever wins will advance, right?"
"Yes, I remember telling us that." Xueling Huanbing took out his adventurer's manual: "I know your questions, such as what to do when a strong person deliberately chooses a weak person as a combat opponent, and why Team formation and the like - these issues have already been thought about by Jianghu, the host country that dominates the rules of the game."
"The preliminary competition is divided into two stages. The first stage is for the challenger and the challenged to send one member each to compete in a one-on-one duel." Looking back at the other two people present, the white-haired female swordsman hesitated for a moment and finally Still squatting next to Duan Qing: "This game does not count towards the number of wins and losses, it only serves as a draw. The winner has the right to designate the official competition venue, while the loser has the right to refuse to continue the competition for once. "
"The next battle will officially determine the outcome. The form of the battle is not fixed. It doesn't matter if you do it one by one or together." Speaking of this, Xue Ling Huan Bing held up her long long hair and showed a smile: " If you feel that you have no hope of winning, you can take the initiative to admit defeat. Everyone can save a little time, and at the same time, you can free up the competition venue and ensure that no unexpected losses are caused to the city."
"Considering that so many contestants have to decide the winner today, this competition arrangement is indeed more reasonable." Feeling the warm breath close at hand and the dissatisfied arrogance of the red-haired girl behind him, Duan Qing nodded unnaturally: "Otherwise, if we decide the outcome one by one like Shenshan, we won't know when and where the match will end."
"But most of the strong teams will stay." Xue Ling Huan Bing said with a serious and solemn face: "The elimination rate of the weak teams is very high. Even if it is half and half, there is still one chance to legally escape. It is difficult for them Promoted."
"If you want to stand out in such competition rules, weak teams must use some extraordinary methods." Baibu Wushuang, who crossed his arms, also gave an example: "For example, use the fastest speed to find an opponent you are sure to defeat, and then Step on the corpse of the weaker team to get the upper hand, or—"
"Strike where your opponents can't think of or see you, so you can gain an unexpected advantage against a strong team."
In the scene where several people looked at each other in silence for a while, the vague sound of the announcement gradually became clear along with the transmission of the magic signal. An exclamation from the blossoms also echoed with the sudden cheers from the surroundings. In the ears of Duan Qing and others, his extremely fast explanation voice appeared at the same time: "Oh oh oh oh! Luo Rigu Yan's flaming whip finally broke out! The huge power directly blew up Gu Yan. The last two people in Chen! Their attempt to defeat the superior ended in failure! What a pity!"
"Although they guessed that Wizard would choose the cathedral as the venue for the game and planted magic traps here in advance, the team gap between them and Wizard was still not made up, relying only on the setting sun and the headwind. Just two people, Youran, beat the five of them to a pulp."
"Yes, these two are the top magician players among the existing professional players, and they are very compatible with each other. The fire storm just now was so beautiful. Gu Chen's warrior team There is no resistance at all!”
"If you want to cause some substantial damage to Wizard's new magic combination, you first need to exclude one of them from the battlefield. Magic traps are indeed a good choice, but they may not be the ones they need to control. The brain of the team is the immediate combat capability of this team, and then seize the chance of a surprise attack at the beginning of the war, and kill the floating dream with almost zero combat capability in one fell swoop..."
"By the way, who is partnering with Blossoms this time?"
A question from Qian Zhihe then interrupted the trance of several people who were listening to the explanation. She pointed to her ear and then frowned in confusion: "The voice doesn't sound like that of my previous partner. Ah, the sound is also very mature and aged..."
"I heard that it's the mysterious guest invited again by Blossoms." Baibu Wushuang answered with his arms folded: "This explanation should be quite professional, and he has a deep understanding of the contestants. We might From his tactical analysis, we can find the weaknesses and inspiration of these potential enemies."
"I have heard of his name from Fanhua Sijin, and... it sounds familiar." After saying these words, Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes involuntarily shifted to Duan Qing: "You should know better. A little?"
"Of course, I am very familiar with it." Duan Qing scratched his nose and lowered his head helplessly: "After all, we are old friends who have faced each other many times... Huh, that guy is blooming like a brocade. , seems to be planning to invite all these old friends."
"Ah, speaking of-"
As if they knew what Duan Qing was discussing here, the magic signal echoing in their ears suddenly sounded a strange cry from the flower blossoms: "It seems that we haven't introduced the identity of this guest yet! Oops, it turned out to be the case. Because of the series of shocking declarations just now and the too tight pace of the subsequent game, I almost forgot about it."
"Ahem, it doesn't matter if you don't need to introduce me." The mysterious middle-aged voice hurriedly coughed and replied: "Anyway, sitting here watching the game is just casual for me. I don't intend to guest star all the time. Outside There’s a lot of other things waiting for me.”
"That's not possible. There are so many of your old friends here, how can you not let them know your existence?" Fanhua Sijin laughed unceremoniously: "Come on, come on, I know the audience can't see it. Naturally, we can’t see the ID or name from our commentary booth, so... let us reveal the identity of today’s guest!”
"Once ruled half of the warrior class, one of the representatives of traditional warrior players! The former president of the Sword of Justice! Toho Ramen!"
"It's indeed him."
Hearing the sudden exclamation from the players below who were also listening to these broadcasts, Duan Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Blossoms are blooming, flowers are blooming, you really don't stop, even for such a person. Are they all being dug up to work as coolies for you?”
"It's a pity that Goldman is not here, otherwise I can appreciate his expression." Xueling Huanbing smiled and held up the side of his cheek: "But he should have heard this long ago like you. As a guest."
"He won't panic. Anyway, the Sword of Justice is no longer in his hand." Duan Qing raised his eyebrows and laughed: "It should be looking at the expression of Brick, or those Gedemai The group of guild veterans who kicked out the guild and took the lead in making trouble in front of everyone... By the way, they must have participated in the competition this time, right?"
"Why, you still want to continue watching the excitement?" After looking at the other party for a while, Xue Ling Huan Bing couldn't help but knock Duan Qing's head: "Just wait here honestly and stop running around. If If someone finds you here, I don’t know how much trouble it will cause!”
"But according to the established plan, we were supposed to show up. They came here to challenge me. How can we not show up in front of them?"
"This step has been completed as early as the sacred mountain! Do you know how much effort we wasted trying to protect you? Can you be a little self-conscious?"
"Well, that's why I want to help you share some of the pressure. Besides, this preliminary round has nothing to do with us, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to stand up and wave in greeting..."
"Still waving to you? Do you really think you are a world-famous person? Believe it or not, if you stand in the Central Square now, 10,000 people will immediately come out and throw white gloves at you——"
"Oh! Look what we found!"
Another strange scream from Blossoms interrupted the bickering and noise between Duan Qing and the white-haired swordswoman, and also made the audience in the city collectively stunned: "It's the Sky-Breaking Blade! He finally Arrived at the scene!”
"Ah, I know you can't see it, because we discovered him with our special viewing angle. Well... should I reveal the location and let you find him? Hehehehehehe."
"...This guy." When everyone around him was equally stunned, Duan Qing was the first to grind his teeth and spat: "Should I take back his control authority over the magic circle?"
"You can figure it out yourself." Xue Ling Huan Bing took the lead in jumping off the city wall and waved to everyone: "Let's go."
"Let's change places quickly."
