Volume 12 Interlude 6: Leisure Travel Chapter 30 The Importance of Aristocratic Family
"This is not a forehead-popping contest!"
"This is enough to start a genocide war!" Some people looked at this scene, and even their mental images couldn't help but complain.
"This world shouldn't be just about bullets. War, scientific research, and technology should be the main themes!!"
Truth·Deep Thought shouted so, and then he snapped his fingers and activated his own secret skill·When Thousands of Artillery Fires Roar!
At the moment when the flashing of the first word stopped and the real word emerged, Truth and Deep Thought launched its own attack.
All the attacks were targeted at Lu Bai's forehead at this moment.
This kind of attack is not only to pierce Lu Bai's forehead, but also to smash Lu Bai's entire body into mud and then burn him to ashes, only then will it be considered successful.
"An attack of this level!!!" The other contestants were also watching this at this time.
They believe that their own attacks would hardly reach this level.
"It seems that Truth and Deep Thought are likely to win."
"We must ensure that either I or one of the contestants from the Nangong family successfully advances and defeats the other." Zhongyang Budong thought.
As the eldest son of the Central Family, he had to ensure that the title of number one in the world remained in the hands of the five major families.
Judging from the current situation, the opponent's attack capability is completely beyond normal limits.
He must use his own suppression secrets to destroy the opponent's technological weapons and use this to win.
Of course, the people from the Nangong family can do it too. The opponent’s secret technique can force them to take the initiative first, and directly attack before the opponent’s technological weapons roar.
But in the end, it's still not as stable as his.
As the central family, he restrains not only the other three families, but also all individuals who do not fight according to the rules.
Even aliens, even gods, must abide by the rules of the Central Family!
This is the confidence of the Central Family!
But this time, the guy from the Dongfang family was also pretty good. His ability to accumulate power was very strong, and he was an opponent who could possibly defeat him.
It seems I have to find some time to talk to the other party.
If he meets the opponent in advance, he will need the opponent to help him advance!
Or, he could directly interfere with the order of the match and let him face off against this Truth·Deep Thought.
However, as the roar of artillery fire stopped, a glimmer of light appeared on the field.
A barrier suddenly appeared on the forehead of Truth·Deep Thought. Unfortunately, the barrier was broken directly, and Truth·Deep Thought was knocked off the ring.
At this time, the smoke caused by the roar of artillery fire on the ring quickly dissipated, revealing Lu Bai's unharmed body.
"It's a stand attack!!!" the commentator shouted excitedly.
"Contestant Lu Bai not only remained unscathed under the roar of that kind of technological weapon, he also successfully used his Stand to strike the enemy."
"Tell the world that times have not changed!"
"It was Lu Bai who won and secured his place in the top eight!!!!!"
"Lu Bai!" Zhongfang looked at Lu Bai on the ring, his expression becoming somewhat unfriendly.
If he had 100% confidence in defeating Truth and Deep Thought, then he felt that he could not see any possibility of winning against Lu Bai.
He wouldn't be able to withstand an attack of that magnitude unless he used suppression and turned the duel back into a pure head-bouncing contest.
But Lu Bai was different, he actually did it and did it with ease.
From this point of view alone, his level of danger far exceeds that of Truth and Deep Thought.
There is a good chance that Lu Bai will defeat the remaining contestants and truly become number one in the world.
If that happened, he would become a sinner of the Central Family.
"No, absolutely not!" Central thought without hesitation.
Unfortunately, things did not go according to his will, and soon other duels began.
Soon, the mind image started to turn and the top eight were decided.
In the quarterfinals, there were only four people from the five major families. The other four were Lu Bai, Mo Gongdao, an alien, and an unknown identity.
For the first time, in the world's best competition, there were players from aristocratic families and non-aristocratic families, with the score divided equally.
This gave many ordinary people hope, but also made many people from aristocratic families look gloomy.
Especially the Ximen family.
There were originally three contestants from the Ximen family this time.
As a result, one of them lost before the middle stage and was defeated by Lu Bai.
The other one was defeated by Nangong Wudi before entering the top 16.
Later, in the round of 16, another person from the Ximen family met the unknown opponent and was defeated.
As a result, there was no one from the Ximen family in this round of the quarterfinals.
At the same time, the other families also looked unhappy.
Although there is only one person from the Central Family participating in the competition, he has been winning until now.
The Nangong family had three contestants, among whom Nangong Wudi emerged as a dark horse and successfully defeated another of his brothers to win.
But there were six people in total from Beitang and Dongfang family. Needless to say, many of them bumped into each other, but there were also two who bumped into the Demon Attack Sect and the aliens.
They didn't even win the game, which led to the current situation.
In previous competitions, the top eight were basically dominated by the five major families, and only in a few cases would one or two outside powerhouses win and advance to the top eight.
But now it’s different. The pressure on the remaining people from the aristocratic families immediately increased.
"Should we control the order of the next duels?" A servant beside Zhongyang Budong asked carefully.
"Let those guys fight each other and not interfere with this one..."
With a flick of his finger, the servant flew backwards. Zhongyang looked at him without moving, his eyes full of anger: "Are you insulting the honor of the Zhongyang family?"
He did have the idea of manipulating the game, but his idea was to make himself collide with those people.
He never shirks his responsibilities.
This is the glory of the Central Family, and also the basis for him to be superior to others.
After the quarterfinals are decided, it will be the semi-finals.
Lu Bai faced off against the guy from the Beitang family.
"You are very strong, but your journey must stop here!" Beitang Jing said, his eyes full of self-confidence.
They are from a noble family, and letting these guys come here is already a blasphemy.
After this, Lu Bai will definitely marry into a noble family, change his name to Dongfang or Nangong, or even become a member of their Beitang family.
This is also the management of the aristocratic family. Those players who perform outstandingly in the world's number one duel competition will be absorbed into the aristocratic family.
Boys marry into the wife's family, and girls get married.
Even genderless aliens will be absorbed into the family and renamed.
In short, the other party must be absorbed into the family.
This is the reason why the aristocratic family can continue to become stronger.
"Oh." Lu Bai didn't care about it.
"You are also good at defensive counterattacks, right? But defensive counterattacks are the domain of our Beitang family." Beitang Jing said, and at the same time the word "first" fell.
Lu Bai slowly raised his hand to attack.
It's not like he really uses defensive counterattacks as his fighting style.
He did this simply because it allowed him to better understand other people's various techniques.
Some of these powers seem particularly simple, but it is precisely this simplicity that reflects the characteristics of the mind-image universe very well.
That is what your heart desires, that is everything.
The same is true for the power of the five great families. Their secret skills all involve the rules of duels. They don’t seem so fancy, but in fact, they all involve the moon-level empowerment of heaven and earth, and even some strong ones involve star-level existence infection.
However, these empowerments of heaven and earth and the infection of existence all have local characteristics and are combined with the power of their mental images.
Lu Bai just simply attacked with a flick of his fingers, but Beitang Jing was different. The moment Lu Bai attacked, he seized the opportunity to observe everything .
Then he rushed forward as well.
However, unlike Lu Bai's finger snapping, Beitang Jing clenched all five fingers into a fist.
"It appears! Beitang Jing's secret technique: Five-finger Continuous Strike!"
The commentator filled in at this time and said, "Unlike most people who use their middle finger to tap the forehead, the five-finger tap will use the index finger, middle finger, ring finger, pinky finger, and thumb in that order, for a total of five taps."
"You can attack the enemy from multiple directions while defeating their attacks."
"The most important thing is that because of the counterattack defense, his attack has the effect of being the first to arrive after being struck last."
"Contestant Lu Bai is in the process of attacking, so it's difficult for him to dodge the enemy's attack!"
Lu Bai smiled as he sensed the other party's strength and found that the other party was indeed very interesting.
Compared to people from other families, the guy in front of him is more powerful, and because of this, he shows more things.
"So that's how it is. The family is a whole. Using the name of the family, one can use the world as a medium to infect existence."
"This kind of infection can, to a certain extent, interfere with the rules of the game."
"And the essence of the competition rules is composed of the five major families."
This phenomenon, at this moment, was fully manifested through the infection of the other party's existence.
Lu Bai's finger flick collided with the opponent's five-shot combo.
Of the five attacks, only two collided with Lu Bai's fingers at this moment, and the remaining three seemed to have traveled through time and space, falling towards Lu Bai's forehead.
Moreover, Lu Bai couldn't even dodge this kind of attack or use anything else to defend himself.
Because, these are the rules.
When attacking, you can only attack; when defending, you can only defend.
Only after defense can you counterattack.
This is a rule that only the five major families can defy.
But at the same time, the five major families are also the makers and maintainers of the rules.
"We won. The power of the bullet to the forehead might be the key point, but the special effect is another key point."
"This is my secret skill: a hopeless future!"
