"It seems to be very noisy outside."
"Hey, don't act like it has nothing to do with you."
The door screen belonging to Wings of Freedom was opened again, and the commotion that was still ringing outside also rang in this place for a moment, and then was isolated into another world again with the greetings of two people: "You
Who do you think they are seeing?"
"Why, do they think this situation won't happen in the semi-finals?" Liangchen Meiyu sat down in her original seat, and then raised her legs high: "What if we still have to fight back and forth?"
, then what is the significance of designing human sea tactics?"
"They won't pay attention to the fact that we have two places in the semi-finals. They will only focus on the handicap." Freefly spread his hands: "Every time this kind of thing happens, they always
It will be done.”
"The direction of public opinion will always change, as long as we do it just right." Liangchen Meiyu raised her head and greeted the half-box of cigarettes that came in: "As long as we win the championship, the rest... let them
Go ahead and make a noise."
"...do you have confidence?"
"Of course."
Understanding what the other party was referring to, Liangchen Meiyu nodded to Freefly: "I will continue to 'prepare', please don't worry, President."
"very good."
Shaking his eyes at the half-pack of cigarettes sitting on the other side, who was saying nothing at this time, Freefly nodded with satisfaction, then changed the topic and set his eyes in a certain direction outside the seat: "Then
...Where is that woman?”
"...Probably still thinking about life outside."
"So... you've got it done?"
"What aspect are you referring to? If it is her suspicion of us, then it should be settled."
In the quiet atmosphere, Freefly nodded lightly, and then sighed slightly, as if he remembered the face of the woman who faced him face to face before: "My cousin, everything else is good, but she has a bad temper.
It doesn’t matter if she takes some... As long as she doesn’t hinder our actions, let her do the rest."
"As her suitor, no one understands this better than me." Liangchen Meiyu said with a smile: "As a target that cannot be conquered for a long time, this...is also very suitable for me."
"Haha, then I wish you success first."
Freefly raised a hand and made a gesture of toasting, then put away the smile on his face and continued to look in the direction of the empty door: "Then..."
"What about the team competition?"
"that……"
Liangchen Meiyu touched her nose, but finally showed an inexplicable smile: "That's not urgent."
"It should be some time before our game."
He looked out the window. On the stage projection in the center of the venue, two teams of ten people were gradually appearing in the center, and then they were distributed in the left and right directions of a huge mansion, one by one.
Under the protection of an invisible wall of air, they stared at each other with wide eyes, as if waiting for the start of the game. I don’t know whether they had the same doubts as the contestants, or were attracted by the mansion-like scene in front of them.
The outside audience also temporarily put aside their talk about the previous game that ended suddenly, and instead, like the two people in the explanation channel, focused on the game that was about to start: "Okay, related
We can put aside the debate about whether this game will become the shortest game of this UEFA Cup for now, because according to the arrangement of the league, the first semi-final of the team competition is about to begin..."
"The second best team in the world?" Duan Qing's voice also sounded: "Although they are both heavyweight players, compared to these two teams, what I care about more is this scene."
"Oh? Do you have any bold ideas?"
"Although the time was short, I still noticed the scenes of the two previous games." Duan Qing's voice replied: "The venue for the first semi-final is Kalon Pass in the easternmost part of Taron County.
, and the second game...should be Fars Fortress."
"You have good eyesight, young man." Fanhua Sijin said with a smile, "But... what's the use of this?"
"There is really nothing wrong with those two scenes. The problem lies in...the changes in them."
Duan Qing's voice gradually became deeper: "I have been to Kalon Pass, which is one of the entrances to Falling Star Mountain, but when I went there, that place was peaceful, and it was not the place that appeared in the game.
It looks like war and ruins. As for Fars Fortress... Judging from the current situation, the west gate there should be damaged by now, but in the map just now, the fortress gates are normal. "
"If I guess correctly, these two maps represent the scenes of the free world in two different historical periods." Duan Qing finally said: "One was before the war between the two countries, and the other... was between the two countries.
After the war."
"You are... the intact Fars Fortress was the fortress before the war between the Principality and the Empire, and the half-destroyed Karon Pass was the Karon Pass after the war between the Principality and the Empire?" Blossoms bloom slowly.
He laughed slowly: "Ha, let's not consider whether this represents the result of the war between the two countries as revealed by the system. What does the appearance of these scenes have to do with the current game?"
"Did you forget yesterday's game?"
Duan Qing responded in a low voice: "Since the system can assign the four games to the extreme environments of the four elements, then today's game... it can also be assigned to the front, back, and left of this war. The one in front of me
The mansion, and the surrounding communities, may also be standing somewhere in the free world, and in the war that is happening in that world, they are composing their own connection with this war."
"…not a bad idea."
Blossom Blossom laughed and said, "What a pity - I guessed wrong!"
"……ah?"
"I know this place." Fanhua Sijin explained with a smile: "This is one of the mansions located near the Miracle Bridge. Although I don't know which one it is, the mansion area is still very famous. It seems
Is it called...Cannady Mansion District? Yes, yes, that's the name."
Looking at the system information displayed during the game, Fanhua Sijin nodded with satisfaction: "Did you see it? It's clearly written in the Adventurer's Manual."
"That is..."
"This is somewhere within the City of Freedom." Fanhua Sijin said with a smile: "It has almost nothing to do with the so-called war."
[Welcome to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup team competition.]
[The system is generated and the map is randomly selected. The selected map is: Cannady Mansion Area.]
"Wow……"
Amidst the exclamations of the audience outside the venue, Eternal Star Soul, who looked up at the three-story mansion in front of him, murmured: "Although I have never been to this place, these houses... are a bit too big.
ah."
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, but the system prompts are not over yet."
[The random scene is generated, the time is selected, and the target scanning begins. 】
[Target selected...]
[Random rules are being generated...]
[Special rules are generated: the upper limit of blood volume of all players is reduced by 80%.]
"And the random rules...what?"
The fat mage who was surprised by the system prompts suddenly shouted: "The upper limit of health has been reduced by 80%? What a joke!"
"It seems the system is not kidding."
Looking at the life bar that was shrinking and finally reduced to just one bar, Phoenix Tianwang, who was sitting in the corner, smiled bitterly and said: "With this amount of health... I'm afraid I'll die after just two hits, right?"
"The other party must be the same." Looking at the members of the Jianghu who were also trapped behind the unknown barrier in the distance, the red-haired man's eyes gradually became serious: "Even with the blood cow with superior equipment and HP, encountering such a
The situation won’t get any better.”
"The crux of the matter is...why the system does what it does."
[Special rules have been generated and target selection has been completed.]
[Rule generation completed.]
[Our team’s goal: to bring the hostages trapped in the mansion to a safe place.]
Swish——
As the voice fell, Jiang Hu and others behind the wall of air suddenly disappeared in front of them, and then, followed by off-site cameras, they moved to a room inside the mansion. Their hands and feet were released.
First, they showed a vigilant look and quickly checked the room along the wall. Then, under the frightened gaze of the hostage in the center whose hands and feet were bound, his mouth was covered, and his eyes were looking at him, each of them showed a bitter smile.
: "So...we just became kidnappers?"
"I guess so."
Wu Xing Que Tu, holding a one-handed sword, slowly walked to the window, first looked at the distance of the mansion, then turned back with a smile and looked at the man with the scar face: "Judging from your appearance, this identity is still
It suits you very well.”
"...Cut the nonsense."
Waving his hand to suppress the other people's thoughts of laughing secretly, Duan Fenglei walked to the same window with his hands behind his back. After a while, he stretched out his hand to close the curtains and looked up and around: "The game should start soon.
Those of us who are unfamiliar with this place...are not half at the disadvantage."
"Suffering a loss?"
"If this is the territory of the Free City, then our opponent should know this place very well." Duan Fenglei shook his head and said: "Although I don't know whether the location where this so-called hostage was generated is fixed, but..."
"It shouldn't take them long to find this place, right?"
【Ding--】
As the system prompt sounded again, a large timer suddenly appeared in a corner of their system prompt bar. The reflected five-minute timer was like a giant hand grabbing a sponge, completely squeezing out the tense atmosphere.
pressed to everyone's side. Wu Xing Que Tu, who once again glanced at the light outside the window, also withdrew his gaze, suddenly lifted up the wooden table in front of the hostage, and then pushed down other furniture around him while pointing at other people.
The teammates shouted: "Meng Jiangluo, go around the door outside and feel the nearby terrain! Changfeng Elegy, you and Yun Shengtan stay here, be careful to hide your position! Boss..."
"You want to go out, right?"
Before Wu Xing Que Tu could finish shouting the next words, he had already reached the door. Duan Fenglei, who was carrying his back, raised his hand: "Do what you want to do, this game..."
"It shouldn't end so easily."
boom--
A crisp and loud cracking sound suddenly sounded downstairs where they were. It was the sound made when the main entrance on the first floor of the mansion was knocked to pieces by a strong force. Meng Jiangluo, who had just ran to the stairs, hurriedly squatted down.
He got down and carefully looked at the door of the living room under the stairs. Except for the scattered wood fragments and the sunlight that came in, he didn't see any other figures: "It's actually a feint attack..."
call--
The pupil in the center of his eyes suddenly dilated as the whistling sound came from far to near. He suddenly turned towards the aisle behind the stairs, then pulled out his long sword in the air wave caused by the fireball, and hid behind the corner.
In the shadow: "They are coming! The main entrance!"
Wow——
The sound of the window being broken once again sounded in his head. Meng Jiangluo, who was holding the sword, did not raise his head this time. Instead, he stepped back again, opened the door and hid in the confines of another room. The demon fell from the sky.
Fusheng, however, had no intention of continuing to pursue his opponent. Instead, while approaching the previous staircase, he shouted loudly in the direction of the room where Meng Jiangluo was: "Coach!"
"I know, I know……"
As the response sounded, the figure of another man in leather armor suddenly appeared on the window of the room. Then, before the spectators outside could react in surprise, he ran into the room in an inverted posture.
The scattered glass shards reflected the cold light, reflecting the shadow of Phoenix Tianwang's spear to every corner of the room. The rain-like sound of metal collision that arose in a moment was quickly silenced in the ears of nearby players.
Instead, there was a shout from Meng Jiangluo before his death: "There are three of them——"
Demon Resurrection, who had already reached the door, smiled as if his treacherous plot had succeeded when he heard the sound, and then suddenly kicked open the wooden door in front of him: "People inside, listen!"
"Your grandpa is here!"
He shouted loudly, and then retreated to the side the moment before the swords were handed out at the same time, and then at the same time as the huge sound of broken windows sounded in the room, he punched the wall next to him: "Broken!"
A huge sound was accompanied by the collapsing rubble, which crashed into the room where the hostages were. The red-haired man retracted his fist with satisfaction, and then turned around amid the sounds of swords and the shouts of several people from behind.
Facing the figure of Wu Xing Que Tu who circled back from the top of the stairs: "You are too unprofessional, aren't you? It's okay to divide the troops, but you can even fall into this simple attack..."
"...What about you?" Listening to the sound of fierce fighting still ringing in the room, the hilt of Wu Xing Que Tu's originally tightly grasped sword slightly loosened: "Where did you all come in from?"
"You want to delay it until Duan Fenglei comes back? That's impossible."
Pointing his thumbs up behind him, the demon resurrected with a grin and replied: "The angry mad demon has already gone to block him. We deliberately left a substitute spot, just to be able to use it at the critical moment..."
"Keep a key man who can deal with him."
【Ding--】
[The hostages have reached the safe area and the game is over.]
Wuxing Quetu's eyes narrowed for a moment, then immediately relaxed.
