Game time PM15:45
At this moment, [Inquisition Battle·Personal Battle] finally decided the last eight players, and in a short period After the break, these eight players who have stood at the top of the pyramid at least in this competition will continue to compete in the next round, and their opponents are also determined early due to the schedule!
“First of all, the first half of the competition area brought us extreme surprises and shocks. The players who stood out were the Night Song players who had the largest equivalent and the most lethal power in this competition; A professional player with countless honors wakes up; his strength is unfathomable, and the only one who can do it in one second The game ends within a short period of time, and the player on the first page of his personal list, the Keyi player with extraordinary background, the anonymous player shrouded in mystery, and..."
The smiling face took a deep breath, and on the far right of the big screen The fourth silhouette on the side lights up and says succinctly: "Cordoba."
"As you can see, according to the schedule, the two games in the first half are the Night Song player versus the anonymous player, and the Cordoba player versus the Awakening Dragon player."
The handsome guy immediately followed up, serious. Said: "It must be admitted that even though Almost every game in the upcoming semi-finals is full of gold content, but the two games in the first half still make people’s blood boil just thinking about it.”
And Xiao Xiaobai just responded at the right time. Interfaced: "But I personally look forward to the second half. Whether it is player Mang who has shown the aesthetics of a spellcaster to the extreme for us; player Christina, who has never made a serious move even once and is most likely the only dragon player in the game, still has weird and terrifying power and fighting methods. Rather than Anonymous contestants whose appearance is completely inversely proportional are very interesting."
"Eh?"
The good wife was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Xiaobai, are you right? Less personal? ”
But as soon as she said this sentence, the good wife regretted it, and as expected, Xiao Xiaobai immediately showed a mysterious and confident smile, and said softly: "Of course not, but if the introduction of the Cordoba players only requires their names, It’s enough, then it doesn’t even need to mention the name. It’s enough to believe it in your heart. After all, it’s the morning glory.”
[You want to mention the morning glory. It’s too bad! Think about the feelings of the morning glory. Hey! 】
With a smile, he glared hard at Xiao Xiaobai, who didn't mind the own-goal, and said dryly: "And the two games in the second half will be between the mourning player and Christina. Players, anonymous players versus Big Flower Petunia players, as Xiao Xiaobai said, whether it is a highlight or a hit, it is 100% satisfactory."
"Then, everyone should still return. Remember we mentioned before that about Small changes in the latter part.”
The good wife looked at the teleprompter tenderly and said with a smile: “For the sake of fairness, the order of the two rounds of competition from now on will be re-randomized by the system. That is to say, while ensuring that the opponents remain the same, the order of the semi-finals and semi-finals will be randomly selected, and after the semi-finals, the third place game and the championship game will be played in order.”
The smiling face shrugged and said lazily: "Actually, let me tell you, no one pays attention to the third place battle at all. There are even some people who are idle and feel that it is a waste of time, so they might as well stop fighting and change it to rock scissors... …”
Bang! ! !
"Then, the semi-finals will begin in thirty minutes, and before that, the system will take about two minutes to complete the selection of the order of the games."
With ease and familiarity Pressing his smiling head on the table, the handsome guy said solemnly: "Then, please look at the big screen -"
The next moment, the background behind the commentary box was immediately divided into four parts, with the upper left area background color Red, the text is black [Awakening Dragon VS Cordoba]; the upper right area has a blue background, and the text is gold [Night Song VS Anonymous]; the lower left area has a green background, and the text is plain white [Mourning VS Christie] Na]; the lower right corner area has a bright yellow background and the text is magenta [Big Flower Morning Glory VS Anonymous].
In the center, there is a simple pointer.
......
"The turntable."
In the conference room of Red Constellation, Hanmei looked at the virtual screen in mid-air with some surprise, and sighed: "This is also It’s a bit too retro.”
Kuzhong shrugged and shook his head: “The form doesn’t matter, as long as the official is willing to express this attitude, it’s fine. But I personally think this randomization should be really random, but the second If it’s one game, it should be random among the other three groups.”
"Haha, after all, the fundamental reason why they are willing to change the rules is that we raised objections. Although they did not say it explicitly, the other party is not stupid. They must know that we have objections because we inexplicably let the captain take the lead."
The Pioneer grinned and said happily: "By the way, our club should be the first to let the Innocence Company suffer, right? According to their official style for a long time, I think this matter can be recorded in the mileage "
"Don't get carried away."
Han Mei glanced at Pioneer and shook her head: "The reason why Innocence Company's style is so stubborn is that it will not compromise for short-term gains. In addition, the main reason is that they basically did nothing wrong. As for the rule modification this time, it is not so much a compromise with us as a compromise with their own negligence."
"Sister Mei Mei said it right. Yes.”
Han Guang immediately echoed loudly and speculated: "So where do you think the captain will be ranked?"
"You don't have ears, right?"
Han Meibai He glanced at Han Guang and said angrily: "Didn't I just say that, except that I won't choose to wake up the dragon in the first game, it should be really random, so no matter which game it is, there is a chance... eh?!"
"What's wrong?"
Han Guang was stunned at first, and then subconsciously tilted his head to look at the big screen from Han Mei's perspective, just in time to catch the simple pointer rotating at high speed. After a few laps, it stopped firmly at the top of the screen...a little to the left!
"So, the two sides of the first game are the Cordoba players and the Awakening Dragon players in the top half."
As the good wife read out the results solemnly, the Red Constellation conference room was filled with excitement. After the explosion, even Xue Ran, who was lounging on the carpet, and the gentleman who always maintained an exaggerated smile, widened their eyes and showed expressions of disbelief.
As for Hanmei and Jiuzhong, the two think tanks who had already determined that Awakening Dragon would not appear in the first game, they fell into a state of confusion at the same time, looking at the results on the screen with disbelief until the pointer started again. I haven't come back to my senses yet.
Only the client, Xinglong, showed no surprise after seeing that he was still ranked in the first game. He even couldn't help but laugh and murmured: "That's right... …”
“Right?”
Hanmei, who was standing next to her, suddenly turned her head to look at Xinglong, and said in a shocked voice: "What's right? What's wrong? This is obviously completely wrong, right? It's obvious that we have given serious feedback to the official because of the unfair competition system. The official side I was sure I wanted to change it, but in the end, I still let you get the wrong answer. Array, this doesn’t look right horizontally or vertically, right?”
Not only Hanmei, but also others present had the same idea, so although they did not directly question Xinglong like the former, they all It was an expression that was completely incomprehensible.
Xinglong asked Hanmei in return: "You said the official is sure to change it, so what do they want to change? Fix the BUG that the Red Constellation's Xinglong will play in the first game? "
Hanmei: "Uh..."
"In the final analysis, the official just promised to change the order of the competition to random."
Xinglong smiled, with a captivating light shining in his eyes: "From the beginning to the end, they have never given us any face because we are the leading club in the country. Not only that... In my opinion, based on the consistent behavior of the Innocence Company Style, they would even deliberately let me continue to take the lead in several other games on a random basis, just because they were 'not used to it'."
Kinou, who barely calmed down, pursed his lips and frowned: "But. We didn't make unreasonable demands, it was just normal feedback. What's wrong with it..."
"They accepted normal feedback."
Xinglong said in his tone. The smile did not diminish, and he raised his eyebrows and said: "But after all, we are used to our big influence, so it is likely that people will feel uncomfortable when giving feedback. However, if it were other game manufacturers, they would probably do it in order not to offend Red. The constellations muddle along, but for the Guilty Company... I think as long as they are uncomfortable, the cause of their discomfort will be equally uncomfortable."
Hanguang's eyes widened and he said in shock: "So Captain, you. What you mean is that the Innocence Company deliberately continued to let you fight in the first game?”
"Either it's intentional, or it's purely random. After all, the one-quarter chance is not low." Xinglong said casually, then stood up and looked around everyone with a smile and asked. : "But so what? Whether it's the first game or the fourth game, is there really any difference? It's better to say..."
"It's better to say that you have already I can’t wait to have a good fight with the half-human No. 2 in the world, right?”
Hanmei rolled her eyes and sighed after finishing her words for Xinglong: “I thought that before. You've been working hard for a few years now! You're stable! You're more reliable! You didn't meet anyone you looked up to before, did you? Right? You turn a blind eye to us who should cooperate with your performance, right?"
Xinglong just smiled and said calmly: "I didn't object when you discussed it with the officials before."< br>
"But your reaction now is a bit too happy!"
Hanmei, who had no choice but to accept that Awakening Dragon had to play in the first game, sighed and said angrily: "The corners of your mouth are grinning almost to the ears. Got it!”
Xinglong didn’t deny it, just smiled reservedly, and then turned to look at the screen again, unable to even hide the fighting spirit in his body.
Seeing his kindness, Hanmei and others who were still a little angry lost their temper. After exchanging helpless looks, they all smiled knowingly, without saying anything.
……
On the other side, the order of the other three games has also been randomized:
The second game-[Mourning VS Christina]
The third game-[Yege VS Anonymous]
The fourth game - [Morning Glory VS Anonymous]
……
"How is it, Xiaoyu."
"Are you confident?"
"Can you win or not? Can you beat him to death?"
Idong's private room , everyone is gathering around Cordoba, all talking about the latter who is about to face a tough battle, and even Yuchen is cheering for him in a soft voice.
Cordoba himself crossed his legs very calmly and shrugged: "I don't know."
"God doesn't know."
Zi Lan patted Cordoba on the shoulder angrily and complained: "I didn't know you were so comfortable with such an old god?"
"That's not the case. What?”
Cordoba rolled his eyes at Zilan and said as if he was arrogant: “Isn’t that nonsense if I go online to play in the arena right now?” >
Idong touched his chin and said hesitantly: "It doesn't seem impossible? As the saying goes, if you sharpen your weapon in battle, you will lose all your happiness?"
"Only your uncle."
Cordoba shook his head, then turned to Gu Xiaole, who was about to speak, and replied: "Okay, okay, there's no need to say anything. Now let me be quiet for a while." Right."
Gu Xiaole said sincerely: "I just want to say that uncle Yidong is my father."
"I was wrong."
Cordoba immediately apologized.
"Pfft, I don't blame you either~"
Gu Xiaole chuckled, then turned around and waved to everyone: "What are you doing? Don't disturb Yujiang, let him think quietly for a while. Quiet.”
I didn’t complain about Gu Xiaole’s inappropriate words. They all realized that Cordoba seemed to be concentrating on preparing for the war in his own way. Everyone immediately dispersed and did what they were supposed to do.
……
At the same time
Innocence Continent, Violet Empire, Imperial Capital Salamun
“Uh-huh——”
In a remote house, Shuxiang, who had just gone online, looked pale and staggered, clutching her chest. Suddenly, he staggered and fell onto the bed.
Although he had just used magic to block the pain in reality, and at the same time calmed his mental state with the help of the barrier of the stronghold, when this marginalized man with great strength returned to the game again, his body was She still 'recalled' the state she was in just before she was offline, so much so that Shuxiang felt a 'phantom pain' even though her body was not at all abnormal.
“It’s still careless.”
She had not been seriously injured since the last exchange meeting. She sighed, clasped her hands to regain her energy, and murmured in a low voice: "If I hadn't been disconnected at that time, I would have still had a chance... Who!? "
"Hey, don't be excited, don't be excited, it's me, me~"
With a chuckle, a figure suddenly appeared in the originally 'empty' corner of the room. Including Dai Mao, his slender figure is barely 160 centimeters.
“Who are you!?”
“Me? I am Ultraman [Dijia] passing by!”
"Let me ask you again, who are you?"
"I will not change my name in business, nor my surname in my daily life - the mother-in-law!"
