Volume 1: The Beginner's First Cry Chapter 41: General Assembly (2)
In the following time, they began to torture me painfully. The ten of us were divided into two groups. I, Afeng, the Guardian of the Heart, Xiaoniao Yiren, and Yun Wuying were in one group of five. We only defended and did not attack. We practiced defense and protecting me. The remaining group attacked with all their strength, aiming to hit me. They were too cunning, and my actions were a little clumsy. Although Afeng and the others covered me with all their strength, I was still repeatedly injured and ravaged. This was different from bullying those skeletons and zombies who had no IQ. Without the cover of the undead brothers, I had no qualifications to fight against the masters. It was really horrible!
Xue Wuxia and the others attacked me to their heart's content while instructing me on how to move, how to dodge, and how to protect myself the best I could. Afeng and the others tried their best to cover me, and when necessary, they used their own flesh and blood to block the hail of bullets for me . Of course, if they had been a little more polite in their words, given me some face, and didn't scold me so often, the effect would have been better. I'm just a rookie, and many mistakes are inevitable.
It's no wonder they are anxious. According to the rules of the group competition published by Tian Media, all contestants are divided into ten groups. Only the first place in the group can qualify for the top ten and participate in the next round. The group competition is a continuous challenge, with multiple games being held at the same time. The interval between each game is only fifteen minutes. The one who persists to the end is the winner. But the problem is that we don't have enough contestants and no extra substitutes. Once too much physical or mental strength is consumed in the previous battle, fifteen minutes is not enough time to recover. Especially for me, casting "Summoning the Dead" consumes 80% of mental strength, which is not so easy to recover. And I am the most important fighting force. If I want to win with fewer people and defeat the strong with the weak, I must maximize my fighting power and not let me suffer too serious a blow.
No wonder 20 people are allowed to sign up when only 8 people are needed to participate. Team competitions not only look at the strength of the main members, but also the depth of the team bench, which can reflect the true strength of a team. Those teams with extensive social connections and power are of course happy, and they must have recruited many experts. The only ones who are in trouble are small teams like ours, which are composed of close friends gathered together and are unwilling to temporarily invite unfamiliar people to join. The serious shortage of personnel has greatly restricted our performance. If we want to achieve good results, it is difficult!
Moreover, there is very little information about the contestants from the Eastern Continent, so there is no way to prepare in advance. Most of the information published by "Sky Media" is about masters from other continents. For example, the one who topped the "World's Most Influential Figures Ranking" is indeed a player from the Western Continent, and he is also my mortal rival. He switched to the hidden profession of Light Knight. When I think that he may be among those who will hunt me down in the future, I feel chilled. He must be a master among masters. It may be due to the difference in cultural customs. Master players from the Eastern Continent, especially China, rarely accept interviews. Faced with the temptation of Long Piaopiao, only a few arrogant people from other countries took the bait. Those self-boasting words are disgusting. They just rely on a few stinky money to act like they are the best in the world. Whether it is a mule or a horse, let's take it out for a walk before talking.
The strange thing is that the "Playboy" has not shown up. I thought he would definitely seize this opportunity, which would allow him to get close to beautiful women and increase his popularity. With his original publicity, there was no reason for him to give up. Could it be that he was extremely "lucky" to be a piece of trash and not worthy of being interviewed by beautiful women? Ah Feng disagreed with me. With his experience as a professional player, maybe he was waiting for an opportunity to make a big splash. The "World Heroes Conference" in front of him was the most ideal opportunity. So we must not lose, because every opponent we meet could be him. In reality, he has already been irreparably defeated. Here, Ah Feng never wants to lose to him again.
I understand Afeng's feelings. The price is to endure even more crazy attacks. Of course, they have to grasp the scale and not accidentally beat us to death, especially me. They take a break every once in a while and give me theoretical lessons. I am such a grown-up, but I am like a primary school student in front of them. Even the youngest girl can teach me a lesson without any hesitation, but I can only listen to her. It's so depressing.
At 1:00 am on September 1, the "World Heroes Conference" was held simultaneously in four continents. 100,000 players from the Eastern Continent came to watch the competition. Because there were so many contestants and the venue was limited, they could only enter in turns . The losers were eliminated immediately and could not stay to watch the next game, so as to make room for the contestants who came later. The registration fee and ticket fee were not delayed. Tianxia International really made money! In order to ensure the smooth progress of the competition, there was no online time limit for the contestants and the audience on site today, and they could be online 24 hours a day.
The first event was the individual competition. Xue Wuxia and Yun Wuying bought tickets to watch and learn on site. Xiao Lajiao also went to join in the fun. In order to convince Heitieta to let her take leave to participate in this competition, she had to spend a lot of time and effort. In the end, Nan Feiyan also came forward to help her say a lot of good things, and she was reluctantly allowed. I definitely won't go. Ten gold coins for a ticket is not something I can afford. What surprised me was that Afeng used the excuse of giving me the final training and actually stayed behind. He didn't accompany Xue Wuxia to watch the game. I don't know what he was thinking.
Seeing Afeng absent-mindedly fighting with me, his eyes looking towards the direction of the conference from time to time, I sighed secretly, signaled to stop attacking, and walked over, "Afeng, what are you thinking about? Do you really want to watch the game?" He must feel very regretful for giving up such a chance to get close . I must be a burden to him. I have to support the lives of two people. Ten gold coins are not too much, but not too little either.
A Feng looked at the high venue from afar, "'Flower Prince' should be there too. I don't know his name. I'm afraid that even if we compete with him face to face, we won't know who he is."
I was stunned for a moment. I didn't expect that Ah Feng was thinking these things. I patted him on the shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter. There is a long way to go. Even if you miss this time, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. You can always find him. I just don't know what kind of mood you will feel when he falls at your feet. It's really exciting!"
"I will definitely make him regret it." A Feng didn't say much, but his simple sentence revealed his immense determination.
After a moment's silence, I couldn't help but ask, "Then why don't you go watch the game in person? I heard that reporters will interview outstanding players on the spot, and they can also observe and identify them carefully. Maybe they can recognize him." Thinking back to the time when Afeng had put a lot of effort into understanding his rival. Not only did he know his height and weight, but he also got information about his measurements. He also investigated his behavior and living habits, and has a relatively detailed profile. Although he is completely different in the game, his height and body shape will not have obvious changes. The last time we met, Afeng also said that he had not changed much. As long as we identify the target and eliminate them one by one, and observe for a long time, the chance of recognizing him is still quite high. Although the tickets are expensive, we can still save money.
"I'm a little scared. I'm afraid that I won't be able to control my emotions when I really recognize him, and he will be aware of my existence before me. We are still too weak now. This is not the time to act impulsively. To deal with someone like him, we need to plan before we act. I don't want to defeat him once or twice, but I want him to be completely defeated in "Tianxia" and never have a chance to turn things around." The cold words were filled with tremendous hatred, "Playboy", I really don't know what happened between you to cause such deep hatred in my usually very kind brother. Is it really as simple as a fight for love between you?
