"This bastard, the limelight has been stolen by him."
Listening to the still undulating sounds inside and outside the central square at his feet, Duan Fenglei, who was standing aside with his arms folded, couldn't help but let out a cold snort: "We didn't let him show off like this just to show off his power here.
Yes."
"To be honest, he didn't show off much." Duan Shanyue, who had retreated to the depths of the high platform, also let out a wry smile when he heard the sound: "But when I turn around and think about it, the once 'god'-level figure has been beaten by countless people.
The virtual king whom I admired actually appeared in public in this way, and he also personally promised them the opportunity to 'communicate' with him... Hey, that makes me a little eager to give it a try."
"It's a good thing to have a fighting spirit, so I don't have to talk nonsense." His dissatisfied expression gradually faded away, and Duan Feng Lei looked coldly at the gray-robed back in front of him who was still receiving cheers and speaking casually: "His teammates are all participating in the competition.
Has it been confirmed? We cannot allow them to take advantage of the situation on our territory."
"Of course, all the preparations that need to be made have been made." Duan Shanyue came back to his senses, smiled ferociously and clapped his fists in front of himself: "As long as they dare to broadcast it live on the entire network like this-"
"This competition will definitely make them suffer."
Unable to hear the loud conspiracies of the two event organizers behind him, Duan Qing, who was standing at the front of the high platform, still resisted the raging heat wave coming from below with an unchanging smile. He used his hands that kept lowering to signal that the noise would gradually quiet down.
, and finally spread the words that were amplified by magic again inside and outside the square: "Okay, okay, I have completely felt your enthusiasm today."
"Although I don't want to mention my past identity, you are gathered here today, and a large number of people are here for this reason." The gray-robed magician pointed at his face, and then vaguely walked in the direction in which he came.
Several players who were still under siege smiled: "Of course, there are also people who don't know me, or the new generation who have been growing up in the past three years - I am very happy to see your appearance, which shows that we are still thriving.
With the breath of life, players...adventurers are always alive and never grow old."
"So before the competition starts, I still have to say one thing: Don't think of me as some strange, deified guy. I am just an ordinary contestant, essentially no different from you." At this point.
Duan Qing scratched his hair in embarrassment: "If this competition is really going to be called the 'Chicken Beak Cup', I think I would be a rookie now, hahaha."
"Equal fights, equal exchanges, I believe that no matter the victory or defeat, everyone will have an unforgettable good time." The half-joking tone had a strange magic power, and the gray-robed magician's voice echoed over the quiet venue: "Then, if not
If you have any other questions——"
"Are you looking for excuses for yourself?"
The perfect opening speech and the boiling sound that was about to rise again were eventually interrupted by the insertion of disharmony. A moderate low laugh from the corner of the square immediately attracted the attention of everyone present and leaned against the wall.
Liangchen Meiyu, who had her right hand spread out, was not afraid of this concentration of scrutiny, and expressed her doubts to the sky with a disapproving look: "You want us to treat you equally? It means that if you lose to us then,
, the face won’t be too ugly, right?”
"After all, he is an old man who has retired for such a long time. He may not have any strength commensurate with the legend at all, so I will use such words to pave the way first - hahaha! It sounds very reasonable!" Hugging
A burst of piercing laughter burst out from both arms, and Lueyi Guyan, who also appeared in front of everyone, changed the subject: "But this can be said from anyone's mouth, but you are very unconvincing when you say it."
Li, don't forget how you were completely defeated by that man on the sacred mountain."
"That was just an accident. After all, I also have other tasks on my body." Blinking her eyes, Liangchen Meiyu didn't care about the ridicule from Sunset Guyan: "This time, I don't have any burden on me, and I also have plenty of energy to accompany me.
You guys have a great time."
"Don't do this. Don't you and your Wings of Freedom say one thing and do the other behind your back?" Duan Shanyue walked to the front of the high platform with eyes wide open. Duan Shanyue's tone was also full of accusations: "Here.
But Tania! It is a place protected by both the Principality and the Council of Mages! You and the Magic Empire behind you can never succeed in any conspiracy!"
"Ah, please rest assured about this."
Seemingly very satisfied with her status as the guest of honor, Liangchen Meiyu politely bowed to the others present and saluted: "The rules and content of the competition this time are also very attractive to us. I
Together with other teammates who have qualified for the main competition, they can’t wait to go to the ‘forbidden zone’ of Sky City to have a look.”
"Why, do you have any doubts about our qualifications?" Feeling the atmosphere in the venue gradually getting colder, he straightened up with a strange smile on his face: "No way, no way, it's already here.
At that time, are you going to use some shameless and despicable way to deny our qualifications? You can check our preliminary records!"
"We really don't have any memory about whether you defeated any competition team in the preliminary round and qualified for the competition." Facing the handsome young man's wanton nonsense, Duan Fenglei frowned and replied in a low voice.
: "But there should be video recordings on Blossoms, and there are no errors in the post-match statistics, so..."
"Aha, thank you Jianghu for your recognition." Before the other party could finish speaking, Liangchen Meiyu once again bowed in the direction of the high platform in an exaggerated manner: "When you held the competition and formulated the rules, you should have thought of this.
The situation is right. Anyway, you didn't do it once or twice at the headquarters of our Magic Empire without asking -"
"It's not a big deal for us to visit the City in the Sky a little more openly, right?"
The eyes looking around at the other people present became more and more weird. Finally, Liangchen Meiyu's eyes stopped on Duan Qing again. The gray-robed magician who looked down at the audience did not avoid looking at him, and finally indifferently
He smiled and nodded his head: "Yes, please feel free to visit."
"Oh yo yo, I seem to feel a hint of murderous intent from your answer." Liangchen Meiyu pretended to be scared: "Don't you guys have discussed it and come over to encircle and suppress our Wings of Freedom as soon as the game starts? Then?
It’s so bullying.”
"Don't worry, they all have some deep grudges against me. They shouldn't respond to my appeal for you." Duan Qing curled his lips: "And according to the rules of the game, everything from the beginning
People should be randomly assigned to all directions of the playing field, so your worries would not have happened."
"Really?" His eyes kept swaying back and forth, and Liangchen Meiyu asked the long-hidden question on behalf of everyone: "But how are you and Jianghu going to do this? You can't rely on some magic to teleport, right?
You know, there are at least hundreds of people here..."
"That's right, it relies on the power of teleportation."
After interrupting the handsome young man for the first time, the gray-robed magician turned his attention to everyone in the square: "After all, the 'forbidden zone' is not a place where you can enter and exit at will. The adventurer and the Wizards Council worked together to
Not only is the developed entrance too dangerous, but if everyone enters one by one, it will also go against the design of Jianghu's competition."
"Have you set up the teleportation channel in advance?" Looking sideways at the high platform above, the Fufeng Guild magician named Hot Pot Paomo also showed a distrustful expression at this time: "This kind of thing is different from ordinary entrances and exits.
What’s the difference? Let’s not talk about the order of entry and the impact on the progress of the game. What if the team that enters first finds the advantageous terrain in advance, or even directly blocks the teleportation point to kill? Isn’t this the same?”
"So I said, we will let everyone teleport in together." The murmurs of the crowd were replaced by another uproar. Duan Qing continued to explain pleasantly: "I know this sounds a bit...
It’s impossible to imagine, but trust me, it can be done.”
"Oh, let's wait and see." Liangchen Meiyu showed an expression as if she was watching a joke: "We will stand here without moving, and we also invite the manager of the floating city, the messenger of the God, and the third person under the Lord of Violet.
A magic apprentice, the former virtual king, His Majesty the Sky-Breaking Blade, please show us the 'miracle'."
"Since it is a 'miracle', it was naturally not done by me."
Duan Qing nodded his head and stopped saying too many words. The air flow composed of the gathering of magic also inflated his gray robe, along with the light and shadow around the entire high platform.
They all seemed much darker: "The word 'show' naturally doesn't count, and I don't have that much ability."
"but--"
The sense of space tearing caused by the terrifying magic energy began to appear behind Duan Qing. A tall purple wall also stood behind the torn space curtains, accompanied by countless intricate and intricate magic patterns.
The violent tremors caused by the accumulation of energy extended towards both sides of Duan Qing as if eroding reality: "If you are really looking forward to it, then it is not impossible to start now... right?"
"I don't want to read the rules again, and I don't need any other opening speech." Duan Fenglei, who had his hands behind his back, shook his head and answered Duan Fenglei without flinching from standing so close to the crazily surging energy.
Qing asked inexplicably: "You... you just started."
"Then, please get ready."
Looking back at everyone below, the smile on Duan Qing's lips seemed to be even more dazzling against the intensification of space erosion: "The 'miracle' you have been waiting for will come soon. Once the transmission is completed -"
"The game is declared to begin."
The harsh hum of energy then replaced Duan Qing's strange smile, and the erosion traces composed of complex purple magic lines also turned into a magic net that covered the sky and the sun with the sudden burst of energy.
A huge magic eye behind the tearing space was also accompanied by a burst of queen-like laughter belonging to Violet, occupying the largest space in the gap between the magic net behind Duan Qing: "Okay, little guys, just like
As my lovely apprentice said."
"After we arrive at the Sky City, let's have a good 'communication' with each other."
The dazzling purple light turned into a dazzling flash, and the energy hovering over the entire square reached its highest point at this moment. The players present who had to cover their eyes because the light was too dazzling then watched the rising energy and Wei.
In Erlit's sweet laughter that spread throughout the world, everything disappeared from the square in an instant as if it had been evaporated.
************************************
"Wushuang, please confirm the situation quickly."
Opening her eyes again, Xue Ling Huan Bing said in a quick voice. She was the first to adapt to the feeling of discomfort after space teleportation. Then she looked around where she was and shouted softly to the rest of her team.
: "Is everyone's head still clear? Get up quickly!"
"Woooooooooo." Qianzhihe, who was holding his forehead with a distressed look on his face and swaying a little, also looked a little pitiful and honest while holding his staff: "This, this is simply too scary, I
I have never seen such a terrifying spatial resonance, and the resonance sequence of the spatial string field is completed in segments... Ugh, all my magic power was almost poured out like beans."
"Even you can't adapt, so the magicians in other teams must be in the same state." He stepped in front of Qian Zhihe, Chao Ri Dongsheng raised his long knife and looked up, down, left, and right where he was, "Quite a bit.
The investigation methods for all teams have also been temporarily banned...hey, it's fair and just."
"Really? Then my heart is at least half relieved." The raised bow has been fully drawn. Baibu Wushuang, who is standing at the front of the team, looks past the wall pillars that are so tall that it is difficult to see the end, and falls towards the front.
At the end of the wilderness ruins piled randomly with random rocks ahead: "There are no traces of human activity anywhere - have we really arrived at the battlefield?"
"Yes, this is the forbidden area of the Sky City. It is a place that has never been explored and developed." After answering in the affirmative, Xueling Huanbing, who was holding the hilt of the big sword, narrowed his eyes:
"I also visited here before when we set up the challenge arena."
"The Council of Mages has nominally taken over the ownership of Sky City, but they do not fully control it everywhere." Qian Zhihe, who nodded, also explained in a weak voice: "Like this area in the core area of Sky City.
The Mage Council has never made up its mind to march into this dangerous place, and in the past period of time, they have been leaving it to the players to solve it in the form of entrustments."
"This time's arrangement for the main competition can be regarded as an extension of the 'entrustment'." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who frowned, replied in a low voice: "I don't know what they think, actually leaving such a large enclave.
No matter, aren't they afraid...Hey, Duan Qing, do you know anything?"
"Duan Qing?"
