"Good audience friends, welcome to watch the final of the "Rise of Empire" part of the eighth UEFA Cup competition in 2020. This is also the last event in the virtual game of this UEFA Cup. We can already see the venue of the final,
Hmm…it looks like a hilly terrain.”
"Because since entering the knockout round, all maps have been randomly generated. Both the contestants and us as solutions will only see the terrain at the beginning of the game."
"Yes, Director Zhang, this is also one of the results of the league's continuous improvement of game rules over the years."
"We have been working hard to improve the fairness of the rules of major competitions in the past few years. I believe that future competitions will also..."
"Oh, Cruhid's team appears!"
In the picture broadcast live to the whole country, several figures gradually climbed up the slope of a hillside. The afterglow of the setting sun stretched their shadows very long. The mountain wind blew the skirts of their clothes and made the sound of hunting.
"The scene was filled with shouts like a mountain and a tsunami. They are all supporters of Sky-Breaking Blade. If they can win this final, they will become a legend since the league created the virtual game competition!"
"Yes, if the Skybreaker team wins the championship in the end, they will become the first team in the history of the league to win all the game championships, and the Skybreaker team will maintain the first place in personal points for three consecutive years.
..."
On the hillside in the picture, five figures are sitting on the ground, all looking relaxed. They are looking at a dirt road winding at the foot of the mountain, whispering to each other, while a man with a sword on his back claps his hands from time to time, presiding over the discussion.
situation.
"They stopped at the mountain. They seemed to have no intention of continuing to look for their opponents. They seemed to be planning to start fighting here."
"The view from this hillside is pretty good. If they stay here, they can spot their opponents immediately, and it's also difficult for Lanshan's team to sneak attack on them. Although I think with Han Sanshi's style, it's impossible to formulate such tactics as a sneak attack.
..."
"Their expressions are very relaxed - many people think that the semi-final match between Cruhid and Jiang Hu was already an early final. They were very calm at the time, so now they have more reason to face it calmly...
..."
"But I believe Han Sanshi will not give up easily. I hope they can bring us a wonderful final."
The people on the short hillside did not move much. Judging from the live broadcast screen, several people seemed to be discussing something with each other. The audience could only see the sound of the video and could not hear the direct dialogue between the players in the game.
, this is also a setting made to maintain the fairness of the game.
"...It seems that we need to wait with Cruhid for a while. Director Zhang, do you know some inside information about the origin of the name of Duan Tianfeng's team?"
"Well... I haven't asked him such a question myself, but we know that he names his team different every time. Let me make my own guess. The origin of these names seems to be
It has something to do with the background of each game..."
"For example, the 'Steel Frontline' in "Infinite War", the "Valkyrie" in "Arcade", and the "Sword of Kings" in "Firestone". Of course, these names are all familiar now, but if you think about it carefully
After a while, it seems that there is indeed some relationship. Well, Director Zhang has studied these people very deeply..."
"It's just a guess, a guess, hahaha... maybe it's just his random behavior, there is no rule..."
"Oh! The director helped us switch to the scene of the people in Arashiyama! It seems they are about to meet!"
In the bird's-eye view, below one side of the hillside, a team of five people walked out of the woods, then raised their heads in unison and looked at each other with the people on the hillside.
The noise of discussion gradually subsided in the crowd of spectators. Everyone looked at the two teams in the final battle quietly, and they also looked at each other quietly.
The cold wind howled and time passed. After an unknown amount of time, a burly man leading the team below finally took off a large black square metal shield from behind, and then took out another large shield.
.
He held the shield in both hands, stepped forward, and then used the shields to collide with each other twice, making a "bang" sound. The sound echoed in the mountains, accompanied by the whimpering wind, as if foreshadowing the next battle.
of tragedy.
But the people on the mountain didn't think so. In the picture, the leading man with a big sword waved his hand, then turned back and smiled. Several people slowly got up and walked down the mountain together.
The team on Lanshan's side walked to the other side in unison, clearing a flat piece of land on the dirt road ahead. At the same time, several people spread out and formed a fighting formation.
"The people of Arashiyama are Arashiyama. They very simply agreed to use this place as a battlefield, and with this flat formation... it seems that this game will be over soon."
"Maybe. But it's not possible that they didn't hide something. If there is any trump card that Han Sanshi has not used in previous games, now is the best time..."
"Oh? Director Zhang seems to know some inside information. I remember that you and Han Sanshi were very familiar with each other. Was it before..."
"No, no, no, even though he is very stupid, he will definitely not tell me such a thing."
"Oh! We saw that the whispering had stopped. She stopped on the mountainside and pressed her hands on the ground..."
"It should be that move."
"It should be. When they faced Jianghu in the semi-finals before, they used this move to catch Duan Fenglei and the others off guard. But this move has been exposed now, and it is impossible for Han Sanshi not to guard against it..."
"The people in Lanshan are taking action!"
Behind the man holding a shield in both hands, a man in black robes was walking to one side, taking out something like a scroll from his arms as he walked. At the same time, the people walking down the hillside continued to move forward.
On the mountainside behind, the brilliance of magic suddenly lit up. The black stream of light shone in a circular magic circle, and then gradually condensed into several thin strips of different lengths with the center of the magic circle as the center.
Scattered and gathered to form the appearance of a dial.
Black magic light is the representative color of time magic.
"Okay, the 'Time Plus' has been formed, and Cruhid's members will receive huge speed gains." The commentator said.
The audience cheered.
The hands on the dial began to rotate, then faster and faster, and finally turned into a hazy black light together with the entire array, immersing into the five people nearby. From a distance, it seemed like they were shrouded in a layer of black shadow.
With.
Then, five black shadows were elongated in people's eyes like substance, extending toward the front.
A black light behind her suddenly stopped, revealing a delicate figure wrapped in black light. She waved her hands and continued to fly forward. However, in the sky behind her, huge fire clouds were rolling continuously, and several blazing stars were
The meteorite tore through the sky with billowing smoke, drew a long diagonal line, and hit the front of the team.
Meteor and fire shower.
"Even the chant to cast the spell has been shortened to a...ah!"
In the ears of the audience, the commentator's excited shouts came: "Anti-magic field! They really have a trump card!"
The black-robed mage who walked to the middle of the formation tore open the scroll in his hand, and then pressed it on the ground with his backhand. A purple-black light exploded between his hands, expanded, and gradually turned into a huge black shield, covering
A radius of one hundred meters is covered.
The fiery red meteor hit the purple-black shield, making a popping sound, and then disappeared out of thin air, just like a stone entering the water. Except for ripples, nothing else happened. A few black streaks
After entering the range of purple-black light, the stream of light quickly faded away. As the smoke dispersed, the figures of people gradually appeared - obviously after being filtered by the purple-black field, their speed also dropped back to that of "human beings"
degree.
"The anti-magic field is a large-scale spell with a very high level of spells. At this stage, no player can learn this skill, let alone make it into a scroll. I don't know where Lanshan and the others got this rare scroll...
."
"But in this way, Zhao Lu'an is equivalent to a useless person. This is a lose-lose tactic."
"In terms of magic ability, Xu Yu Liushang is definitely stronger than him, so this deal is not a loss for them."
"With Zhao Luan's proud character, I want him to accept such tactics..."
The two people continued to fight, and the figure in the black robe slowly retreated, replaced by two shield guards holding swords. They did not hold shields with both hands like their captain, but held a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.
attire.
Opposite them, the five figures did not stop because the buff disappeared. Although their speed dropped to a normal level, each person's pace was not disrupted by this.
The big man with two shields sneered, and then swung his shield violently. Behind their triangular formation, another figure wearing a black robe stretched out his hand and pulled off the robe, revealing the full body armor underneath.
"Han Sanshi really cheated! They don't have a healing profession at all! This way, the negative impact of the anti-magic field on them will be minimized!"
"They switched to Destruction in All Directions..." The person known as Director Zhang murmured: "Is this all a tactical plan..."
"This will evolve into the most brutal hand-to-hand battle! The winner may be decided in a very short time!"
The audience was excited again. The man in silver armor roared, rounded the war hammer in his hand, and struck the two-handed sword player at the front with the hammer.
"Judgment of the Holy Light! The Ten Directions Are Destroyed has just been hit with the Sky-Breaking Blade! Is this also Lanshan's arrangement..."
"The silver light on his body...this is a level five blessing..."
"They exchanged a move! Shi Fang Du Mu only lost 8% of his health. It seems that in the competition of strength, Shi Fang Du De is not at a disadvantage, and he is wearing heavy armor and has an advantage in defense.
..."
"Tai Dongyue and Fuhua I used shield barriers at the same time to block Jian Beidong. Oh, Cangyun Barrier has crossed the line! Han Sanshi's target is the back row!"
"It seems this is their tactic..."
Amidst the boiling sound of the scene, the battlefield was shaken by the overwhelming fighting spirit. Dust and loess filled the sky. The two commentators spoke quickly, but they still wished they had a few mouths to make the whole situation clear and round. But these flaws are still there.
The audience, which was already completely excited, had lost its proper meaning. They shouted, roared, and danced and roared for the people they supported.
"Han Sanshi is already close! Although Mu Xiang has some melee abilities, the gap between him and the Shield Warrior is too big, and now he has lost his strongest support of the Holy Word and Blessing..."
"Charge! Shield slam! Another shield slam!"
"Muchiang didn't dodge the second blow. After all, his professional experience is still too little..."
"Xuyu Liushang is rushing up! What is she going to do? She has no fighting power now. Does she want to attract firepower..."
"Ah! It's a code word! Cangyun Barrier was stunned, but he also released Earthshaking Blow. His reaction was very fast..."
As the double-shielded warrior stomped on the ground, a black shadow appeared behind him. The tight-fitting black leather armor outlined his graceful figure and made his beautiful face extremely white. But at this time, this beautiful woman
The woman's expression revealed a ruthless coldness.
"Second Word's grasp of the situation is indeed first-rate. Her timely appearance saved Cruhid's two legal professions."
"But now she has been exposed from stealth and has lost her biggest trump card as an assassin. And the opponent is Han Sanshi, so she can't get any benefits..."
"Yes, the opponent is a double-shield warrior, and he is wearing plate armor..."
"The dragon roared! The code word was blown away. Hey, what is Han Lei doing? Now is a great opportunity to deal with the assassin..."
"He used the fury of the earth! The range of this earth wall is very wide. It seems that he may have used his camp skill before, the power of the dragon..."
The huge earthquake sound echoed on the battlefield. Through the shimmering light of the shield, everyone could still see that a high earth wall had risen on one side of the dirt road. The semicircular earth wall divided the messy battlefield.
As we approached, the crowd fighting on the field was also divided into two parts. Amidst the falling mud, a towering earth wall stood on the roadside. Even in the live broadcast, the other side of the earth wall could not be seen.
What was happening. The bird's-eye view of the live broadcast began to move forward and rise, and gradually turned into a 90-degree bird's-eye view.
"The code word can't be passed. It seems that Han Sanshi is determined to kill these two people first. After all, the duration of the anti-magic field is limited..."
"Now it seems... the decision made by Code Whisper is open to question. She insisted on saving these two legal professions, and she may have played into Han Sanshi's hands..."
"Yes, if she chooses to help the Sky-Breaking Blade or Jian Beidong, the situation on the field may be different. Now Cangyun Barrier is still blessed with the power of the dragon, and the situation of priests and mages is in danger...
.Oh, what a beautiful tumble. With a rich family background like Lou Yuzhang, he can actually tumble so beautifully..."
"Look, the code word rushes towards the destruction of all directions! Are you giving up on those two people..."
"The power of Falstad! She will also fight hard! Cruhid hopes to fight back the disadvantage in other places..."
"No, this is a phantom. She blocked the Templars! The Sky-Breaking Blade rushed over..."
The man holding a two-handed sword rushed to the bottom of the earth wall with long strides. He raised the sword above his head with both hands, and then held his breath and concentrated.
Cut it out with one sword.
A fine slash appeared in the middle of the earth wall, and then gradually spread at a speed visible to the naked eye. The next moment, the seemingly indestructible high wall shattered like a piece of glass. As dust rose in the sky, the battlefield in the southeast
It became chaos.
Two figures suddenly flew out of the dust.
"The Sky-Breaking Blade threw his two teammates out!"
"In such a fierce battle, he can still make so many explosive moves. It seems that his 'Intent Sword' is indeed very powerful..."
"He just met Cangyun Barrier head-on!"
A huge metal collision sounded, and the gorgeous two-handed sword and the ancient shield with complicated patterns finally met.
"The sword and shield duel! This reminds me of the national emblem of the Falstad Empire in "The Rise of an Empire"..."
"The Sky-Breaking Blade retreated. After all, his opponent still has a shield to attack."
"No, he changed sides, and he took the opportunity to attack Destruction in All Directions!"
"The code word... is indeed very dangerous. Although Shifang Deni has lost some health points, at least he is still a Templar and an assassin on the surface..."
"This is... a flurry! Oh my God, he is dancing with a two-handed sword..."
The man on the picture has a calm expression and focused eyes, but he is swinging the sword in his hand vigorously, as if his hand is not a heavy sword, but a feather. The fierce picture makes the audience's attention.
The enthusiasm was completely ignited, and apart from their crazy shouts, no other sounds could be heard outside the venue.
"It is impossible for Destruction in All Directions to receive all the attacks! He has activated the divine blessing, but his health is still about to bottom out..."
"This is what happens without treatment. Although in the anti-magic circle, bringing treatment will not help..."
"Glory of the Holy Light! The blood volume of Destruction in All Directions suddenly increased by 0%. This is his last fight..."
"Han Sanshi is catching up! Shield charge!"
"This crisis of annihilation in all directions is temporary...what?"
The harsh sound of metal collision suddenly sounded in the valley.
The two-handed sword was held by the man in one hand, and the other hand held a shield that appeared from nowhere to block the impact of the double-shield warrior.
Then, he raised his left arm holding the shield and smashed it down hard.
"OMG...it's a shield slam!"
"The power of the God of War! Sweep! He was using one hand to wield a two-handed sword. What did I see..."
"The Cangyun Barrier has been forced back, the duration of the dragon's power has passed, and he has no advantage at all..."
"This is a shield collision! Han Sanshi was knocked away..."
"The situation in Arashiyama is very dangerous!"
Amid the cheers at the scene, the man who temporarily acted as a shield guard tightened his face and strode towards the retreating double-shield warrior. A familiar roar sounded from behind. The man looked back and saw that the Templar Knight was struggling from behind.
He rushed forward and tried to form an encirclement with his captain.
Then, a dizzy sign appeared on his head.
"Sneak attack! Destruction in all directions still relaxed his vigilance, and he gave the secret language a chance. A player of the level of the secret language seized this only chance!"
"The Sky-Breaking Blade returns, whirlwind! This is a whirlwind with a shield. It should have a bludgeoning attribute in the damage determination, and it has a miraculous effect on heavy armor..."
"All directions have fallen! The first death in the finals has appeared, and victory beckons to Cruhid!"
"The secret language rushes towards Huahua I, they want to turn their advantage into victory..."
The tight leather armor turned into an afterimage and rushed towards another battlefield. The man holding a two-handed sword did not move, as if he was waiting for something.
He knew that the rock-solid man would not give up easily.
In the picture, the double-shield warrior finally stood in front of him again. The strong man wiped the dust on his head and said something. In the live broadcast, the Sky-Breaking Blade also responded with two words, and then took a fighting posture.
.
The double-shield warrior shook his head.
"Tai Dongyue and Fu Hua I have already declined, and the addition of secret words is enough to change the balance of the situation."
"Jian Beidong has been able to sustain for so long under the attack of two people, which is worthy of his title of 'Sword that Breaks the Sky'. We all know that he is good at offense rather than defense. He can sustain such a long time under the attack of two people."
Long......"
"Lan Shan's tactics have been implemented very smoothly. They are almost successful. If Mu Xiang and Xu Yu Liushang are killed at that time, then their pile of heavy armor can shrink their defense. When the anti-magic field is removed, they can rely on Zhao Luan's
Magical support leads to victory..."
"Yes, with the combination of their two shield guards and one double-shield warrior, they can last for a long time. Oh, we have seen the battle on the other side and the result has been determined."
"How did Duan Tianfeng do it? In previous games, he did not use similar methods to break the rules of the system. If in the game "Rise of Empires", it is possible to wield a two-handed sword alone, then other similar types of
In the virtual world...it seems that the melee combat system in virtual reality games will undergo earth-shaking changes in the future."
"In fact, during this battle, he has already demonstrated one of the changes."
"The anti-magic field has disappeared! Will the whispers be the last straw that breaks Lanshan's death..."
"She is casting a spell, Zhao Luan must do something..."
"Oh, we see..." The commentator's voice suddenly rose in pitch, and the scene roared like a mountain and sea at the same time, "The members of Arashiyama have admitted defeat! Congratulations...Team Cruhid!"
They won this final!"
"A new history is born! Duan Tianfeng won all the championships in the 1-year League Cup virtual game competition! This is an unprecedented moment, and this is undoubtedly a team of... kings!"
The scene switched to the room of the contestants. Several people walked out of the game cabin one after another. They shouted, danced, and hugged each other. Even the two women who looked as cold as frost did not suppress their emotions at this moment.
Feeling.
They pushed each other and walked out of a certain door, and then were overwhelmed by the roar of mountains and tsunamis outside the door.
"The players from both sides of the game have come out and they hugged each other. I believe that Arashiyama fans will not be discouraged. Their team also performed very well in today's game!"
"As a young player who has written such a miraculous history at the age of 18, Duan Tianfeng is worthy of the title of 'Peak of the Sky'. He uses his strength to lead his team members in "Jianghu", "Endless War", "Gun Fighting"
They have defeated all the powerful enemies in front of them in many games such as "God" and stood at the top of the peak. They have no guild and no power, but now they dominate the alliance! This moment belongs to them!"
"Oh, Han Lei and Duan Tianfeng are shaking hands."
"This is also a moment worth remembering. We can see the persistence and hard work in this veteran who has been in the professional world for six years. Although he did not win the game in the end, I believe he tried his best. Even if Lanshan lost, it would be an honor!
"
"Yes, let us wish him better results in future games."
"Oh, we saw...this person in the camera is Chen Tianfan, and he also shed tears of excitement. I believe that the moment Duan Tianfeng hit Han Sanshi away with his shield, the soul of the 'Shield of Heaven'
Possessed.”
"His juniors have achieved such good results, I think there will be no regrets in his heart now."
"The audience has rushed to the stage and lifted Duan Tianfeng up. They are cheering for their hero."
"Of course. This is a mythical era that belongs to them. I hope..."
The screen was turned off.
This is the twenty-third floor of a skyscraper. In a luxurious office, a man in a suit put down the wine glass in his hand and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
In the modern era of the 22nd century, the appearance of the city has changed a lot. In the night sky, a few rays of light flow back and forth between the buildings of the skyscrapers. They are the air passages between each floor, shining in the dark night.
The bright modern light. Looking at the modern picture, the man suddenly raised his arms in a hugging gesture.
"This is...what it feels like to have."
He let out a long breath, and a smile gradually appeared on his handsome face.
"That's great." He said.
"Chairman." A soft voice came from the living room behind.
Gorgeous chandeliers hang above the living room, and below are a variety of furniture with fluid designs, making the entire living room full of technological modernity. There is also an oval bar next to the door on one side, white.
The marble countertop reflects dazzling white light under the dazzling lights. On the shelves behind the bar, various expensive wine bottles are arranged in an orderly manner to fill all the grids. There is a door behind the bar, which has been pushed open at this time.
, a woman with a hot figure and scantily clad clothes walked out of the door holding a transparent light panel in her hand.
"The game is over, Chairman."
The woman's voice was soft and her expression was extremely soft. She shook her wavy hair and blinked, but the handsome man in a suit was unmoved and just looked at her and nodded.
"They won, right?"
"Yes." The woman knew that he was also watching the game, but she still gave the appropriate answer.
"Then...just follow the original plan."
"yes."
Seeing that the man in front of her didn't express anything, the woman had no choice but to bow her head, then turned around and walked back swaying.
"Huh huh huh..." The man let out a deep laugh, sat back in his seat, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Then it's time to harvest."
In the empty living room, only his voice echoed, like the whisper of a devil.
The next day, the league's official announcement released a piece of news that shocked the professional world.
The Sky-Breaking Blade announced its retirement.
*********************
"I think I've made my point very clear."
At the same night, there was another gorgeous office. Different from the previous living room, this office was decorated in an ancient style. The wooden furniture and walls were lined with many green branches, and some walls were hung with
Some unknown calligraphy and paintings were placed on a corner of one side of the office, and there was a square table with some pens, ink, paper and inkstones on it, and the whole room was filled with the fragrance of paper and ink.
Judging from the voice, the person speaking at this time was a woman. Her long black hair poured down from her head like a waterfall and spread behind her. It contrasted with the white dress on her body, giving people a sharp contrast.
Feel.
"I insist...to cancel this engagement." The woman's voice was cold, which also gave her words a cold aura.
"You have already seen the conditions, I believe..."
"I wouldn't have agreed." Sitting opposite the woman was a middle-aged man. A loose coat was draped on his shoulders, as if he wanted to dispel the coldness of the night, but his meticulously combed hair and matching
His resolute face easily gave everyone who saw him a serious first impression.
"But..." His serious expression suddenly softened, replaced by a pleasant smile: "You are my most precious daughter, why don't I think about you... and
..."
He tapped a transparent light plate in his hand, and the message text on it was gradually disappearing: "After today, there will be no more young masters of the Duan family... so..."
"I agree with your proposal."
Where the middle-aged man couldn't see, the woman in the white dress suddenly let go of her clenched hands. She took a step back, then bowed, and her beautiful black long hair slanted down, blocking her face.
"Thank you for your tolerance, Father. Then..."
The man waved his hand, and the woman turned around, walked out from the rear door, and then closed the door quietly.
The woman walked out of the door, walked down the steps, walked out of the elevator, and walked out of the building. A hover car was parked at the door. As her figure appeared, two bodyguards wearing black suits and sunglasses walked out from the side. One of them
He held a windbreaker and put it on the back of the girl in the white dress.
The car door was opened, and she stepped towards the car. The bright moonlight shone on her white feet, showing a stunning charm in the dark night. As if she thought of something, she stopped just before entering the car.
The air quality in the 22nd century was obviously getting worse day by day, but the moonlight tonight was very bright. She looked up at the white disk, and suddenly stretched out an equally white hand, trying to move the
The disc is held in the hand.
"Finally...free." She sighed, then weakly put down her arms and got into the car.
The sound of levitation sounded, and the white levitation car started up quickly, quickly blending in with the nightlife that had just woken up, and disappeared into the dark night traffic.
On the night of August 5, 1 year, a new era began.
This chapter has been completed!
