Chapter 145185. "The Singer of the People" Opens
Soon, time came to January 10, 1003, the early morning of the Saint Laurent calendar.
The entire Liberty City was prepared for this day: Lilith set up a real-time broadcast of magical projections in the theater square and tavern; the Guards maintained order in dense crowds; reporters holding magic stones were filming on the grounds that set up stages;
Annan is still wearing the Reeves family's mage robe. If you want to say the difference, it is just to take care of the black hair slightly to take care of it and wear the black gem earrings that he hasn't worn for a long time on his left ear.
The knockout round is not as compact as auditions and rematches, and will last for seven days, seven hours a day.
It's much easier than auditions than a whole day, but sitting in the judges for seven hours is still a torment, but Annan has been resting for a long time - although he always feels he's busy
During these seven days, 1,000 contestants will perform on stage one after another. After comments from the judges, the audience will vote, and the 100 contestants with the largest number of votes will advance.
At the same time, there is no limit on the number of votes for the audience, which means that as long as you are bored enough, you can vote for each of the 1,000 contestants.
Outside the court, in addition to the audience who are paying attention to the competition around the world, the casino also joined in the fun - betting on who will advance to the top 100, top 10, third place, runner-up, and champion.
The current favorite to win the championship is the Holy Maiden of the Fortune Church, and he was even teased that "this steak was roasted for this sauce". The handicap in the casino is even as low as an outrageous 1:0.5 odds. That is to say, if you spend 100 jinars to buy the Holy Maiden to win the championship and win, you will get a principal with a bonus of 50 jinars.
The second place is Bayley Knight, with a slightly better 1:1 odds. If you win, you win, and if you lose, you will be gone.
Those who know her know that Bayley Knight and Madeleine were the best sisters and competitors. When they didn't know, they heard "What? The judges are warming up!" and they also felt that she was very likely to win the championship.
The remaining varied groups, such as the Dragon Clan, all have low winning rates because the casino believes that Annan is good at this. There are also some celebrities who are also very popular in the market, such as Rat Man, Elf, Slime, and Necromancer.
If they can enter the top 1,000, they must have great skills.
Ten minutes after the opening of the arena, thousands of seats were already full, and even the aisles and stairs were filled with people.
The staff at the arena pushed the dining cart by, and while walking, they promoted: "Cake, pudding, happy water, fries, fruits, popcorn, and collect your legs..."
The mess continued until a figure appeared on the stage, holding a microphone burning the amplification.
"Welcome all the people in the mainland Allen to watch the first episode of the "Singer of the People" knockout round!"
As the host finished speaking, magic flames suddenly rose around the arena, and even during the day, they were still gorgeous and dazzling.
Amid the cheers, the host continued to shout: "This program is sponsored by Fortune Church, I am the host Peterson!"
That's right, the host is Annan's aide, Peterson.
Originally, Annan wanted to give Francois a rare opportunity to show his face, but he almost kowtowed himself not to give it to him, so he had to take advantage of Peterson.
Fortunately, Peterson was smart enough to handle the work he was in charge.
"After two rounds of fierce competition, 1,000 players were decided from 130,000 people. Next, they will compete fiercely on this stage until the final champion is decided!"
Peterson introduced the competition according to the pre-prepared speech and pointed sideways towards the five empty seats at the end of the stage.
"Next, we have invited five judges to come on stage-"
"The first one is the famous actor, the King of the North, Faro Barros, let us welcome - 'Trumen'!"
Amid cheers and applause, Faro Barros stepped onto the stage.
Even though he was rid of the shadow of the past through "Truemon's World", he had never received so much, without the malice welcome to make his eyes shine.
"The second one is from Haiyuan City, known as the voice of death-like temptation, Siren Siren Siren Clan leader, Ms. Ellin!"
The shouts around were even warmer than Faro Barros' appearance.
Siren Siren has always been a siren who "tempts crew with singing and beauty" in rumors. This shows how beautiful the appearance of Siren Siren Siren is.
Eerlin listened to the cheers belonging to humans, and she felt inexplicably touched her heart, swinging her powerful tail and sliding out.
"The third one is the master of the Southern Undead Kingdom, the smartest lich, the Skeleton King, Lord Leonaifa!"
The applause was still warm, but the cheers were less. They are still a little afraid of the undead.
"The fourth is the Blood Moon that shrouds the Eternal Night Land, the Twelve Bloodsman Congressmen, the Scarlet Queen, Serena Odris Sturret!"
The Scarlet Queen appeared with the throne in the shape of a coffin, and her appearance was exactly the same as when she first came to Liberty City.
The audience's shouts resounded again.
"The last one--"
Peterson paused at this moment, waiting for the shouts in the arena to weaken.
An Nan in the backstage thought that he forgot his words, he resumed his speech in silence:
"The King of the North, the Champion Warlock, the Lord of Freedom City, the Holy Grail Knight's Representative, the Ratman Nemesis, the spokesperson of Lady of Wealth, Annan Reeves!!!"
The cheers in the arena almost overturned the arena.
"I don't know that so many people have come." Olmedo next to him teased.
Annan ignored her, took a deep breath and stepped out of the backstage, and cheered like a tsunami.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
The sun shines on the ends of hair, cheeks, and shoulders, blocking a layer of light for him.
Annan was nervous for the first time and walked towards the judges.
The cheers did not diminish. When she walked to the judges' seat, Annan suddenly stood still and raised his head to wave to his people.
The shouts in the arena were deafening, and the soldiers stood up first, clenched their right fists in their chests, and their bodies were as straight as a spear.
The people around him stood up, and then everyone saw that the audience in the arena raised waves like the sea water.
Among them are Annan's friends, relatives, people from Free City, and tourists, but they are all doing the same thing at this moment.
This scene was really shocking, and the Skeleton King couldn't help but exclaim: "Annan, you have a group of loyal people."
...
Almost half of the people in Liberty City gathered in the arenas, squares, taverns and other places where they could watch the game, and the streets were a little empty.
At this time, the third floor of the Mage Tower was also quiet.
"Mr. Svalro, don't you go and see it?"
Michael walked to Svalo with his shoulders moving.
"Young people's things are meaningless."
"If I remember correctly, there are at least dozens of guys in the arena who are hundreds of years old now."
"That's a childish game," Mr. Svalro said coldly.
Michael laughed: "Is it because Alice was screened out in the first round?"
"That's because they don't know how to appreciate it."
Michael had nothing to talk to with a daughter slave like Svalro, so he turned back to the alchemy room.
The leaves of the other world piled up in a corner of the test bench like vegetables in the vegetable market. Annan asked for something called "magic TV" and he had some ideas.
