Chapter 325 'Promotion Ceremony' The Ringing Snake and the Transformed Snake in the Sacred Mountain
The official Ten Tribes gave Jiang Qian enough room to display, but Jiang Qian had no intention of competing and just wanted to win.
The "three passes" in the promotion ceremony are equivalent to the tribulations that the candidates have to overcome. Each subsequent pass is more dangerous than the last. No matter how fierce the early stage is, it still depends on the final decisive game.
Therefore, for Jiang Qian, as long as he can spend the least effort and quietly pick up the winning results, he will never be high-profile.
But soon, during the first five hours of watching the changes, Jiang Qian discovered that he was a little too optimistic.
The entire environment is constantly moving and transforming based on the concept of a Möbius strip.
When a candidate moves in a straight line in one direction, it will eventually return to the starting point; when a candidate has been hidden in a certain location for too long without being discovered, the environment will continuously "send" other candidates to that candidate.
position and conduct high-frequency harassment... Jiang Qian had to move his position many times and adapt accordingly.
In such a replica environment, candidates can never calibrate their own position and the relationship between that position and the overall environment.
Because everything around us is changing.
Only by always maintaining a high degree of vigilance and making correct responses to new changes in the environment at all times can candidates have a chance to survive in such a dangerous situation.
Of course, this is for the average candidate.
For an unconventional candidate like Jiang Qian, who possesses both intelligence and prowess and a wealth of rare goods, the Mobius environment will only bring him more fun to relieve his boredom.
In the current battle for the category king in the designated area, there are a total of 31 candidates for snake cards and suspected snake cards.
In five hours of active or passive contact, 17 candidates have been eliminated.
The remaining 14 players, including Jiang Qian, are still in the confrontation.
The elimination rate so far is: 55%.
Jiang Qian gradually shifted his attention to the environment to people. He actively observed the hiding and attacking methods of nearby potential candidates, and silently and selectively stored this visual information in his concise and orderly brain.
Of course, after experiencing "containment" and training camps, Jiang Qian's vision has further broadened, and many fighting methods and general martial arts no longer have storage significance for him.
So more often than not, he was chatting to relieve his boredom.
Until two weird guys showed up together.
First, the two men appeared at the edge of the moonlit pond, drinking water and resting without any care. Then, under Jiang Qian's gaze, they slowly approached the woods where he was lurking.
One is an adult male, wearing a black hooded cloak with suspicious bandages on his head, only his facial features are exposed.
His face was sharp and angular, and against the pale complexion, his purple lips and scarlet brows were particularly stunning.
The other is a dwarf of unknown gender.
He is short in stature but dressed in gorgeous clothes. His exotic attire is studded with jewels, gold and silver. However, his steps are much more agile and lighter than that of a dwarf. Even though he is carrying a lot of metals and treasures, he does not have any difficulty in moving.
This man has delicate features and a constant smile on his face, which is obviously in contrast to the cold and stern man wearing a hood and cloak.
What are the backgrounds of these two people? They seem to be confident in the promotion ceremony... Jiang Qian observes secretly, waiting for the other party to approach and listen to them.
Since it was already night time and the Beidou button camera was as bright as stars, it was difficult to get close to the other party and eavesdrop.
However, at this moment, a large net carrying strong current fell from the sky!
Cover the two people in the path, one tall and one short.
But a strange scene happened. The two of them just stopped walking, but had no reaction to the electric current flowing through their bodies!
The dwarf turned his head and said something to the cold and stern man in the hood and cloak, and then turned into mud. With the electric current penetrating his body, the cold and stern man pulled out his long sword from the scabbard and cut open the dense net with one strike.
, put the sword into its sheath and move on.
After a while, the dwarf appeared next to the cold man again, and the two continued to walk forward.
What surprised Jiang Qian was that these two guys didn't care at all about the person who laid the trap, and had no intention of finding out the culprit and taking revenge.
At the same time, they did not carefully disguise themselves like normal candidates and seek to pass the test steadily.
In Jiang Qian's view, they are showing their strength in a ostentatious way.
Or, they are using "swaggering through the market" as a means to try to achieve one or more special purposes, and the importance of achieving the purpose has exceeded the importance of steadily passing the customs.
Fortunately, they did not change direction and continued walking towards the woods where Jiang was hiding.
During Jiang Qian's secret analysis, the two of them got closer and closer to his hiding place.
Until their voices could be heard directly by Jiang Qian.
"Is there really no need to pull it out and take a look? You might have missed it because of this!" the dwarf said to the cold and stern man.
His voice was as clear and childish as a boy's, making it difficult to tell his age.
The cold and stern man who approved the hood and cloak was just the opposite. His voice was low and hoarse, like a disability caused by severe damage to his vocal cords. It was uncomfortable to hear:
"No, Qianlong won't use such low-level methods."
Upon hearing his ID, Jiang Qian's eyes condensed slightly and he became alert.
He continued to listen calmly, hoping to get more information: who they were, where they came from, who they served, what their purpose was, and why they mentioned his name.
"Unexpectedly, your comment about not using Qianlong..." the dwarf chuckled, "I thought you would dislike him very much!"
"Just seeking truth from facts. Qianlong Don't Use is now an official training target for license holders, and he has cleared many difficult dungeons. With his prop reserves, he will never bring in such low-level equipment."
The cold and stern man said, his scarlet eyes reflecting a shuddering luster under the moonlight.
"That's right. After all, he is Ayiguli's best choice. In terms of status, he has the same opportunity as us to take charge of the sacred mountain and become the puppet of those old women..."
The dwarf was laughing and complaining when the man beside him had his sword unsheathed and suddenly pointed it at the throat of the dwarf.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Be respectful."
"Ah, ha! Slip of the tongue, you know I only like to show off my quick words!"
The dwarf raised his hands in fear as if to show surrender, but continued to smile playfully:
"The sword has no eyes, Shui Longyin, you have to be careful. Even the Holy Mother is reluctant to touch my hair. Now that Sister Jiaojiao is not around, you have to think more about yourself..."
The cold and stern man was silent for a few seconds before actually sheathing his sword.
The two people who were traveling together had a silent confrontation.
Jiang Qian was outside the incident, but he listened with great pleasure: There was a lot of information!
They mentioned the Holy Mountain, the peacock spider Aiguli, and the suspected name of the Nine-tailed Fox of the Holy Mountain... These old women were most likely referring to the Holy Mother and the Saint of the Holy Mountain.
Jiang Qianqian remembered these very clearly when he joined the Lan Junxian Sacred Mountain project team.
But the most important thing is the "identity" of these two people.
Roughly inferring, the identities of these two people seem to be similar to his. They are both the "Crown Princes" of the Holy Mountain selected by the Holy Maiden of the Holy Mountain?
Three snake identity cards...
And that cold and stern man wearing a hooded cloak and his face covered with bandages is named "Water Dragon Yin"?
Jiang Qian secretly thought that with such an arrogant name, he would be embarrassed to go out on the street if it didn't have a mythical beast card behind it.
But what does this mean?
Jiang Qian quickly integrated information in his mind: two people suspected to be princes of the Holy Mountain appeared at this year's promotion ceremony, and openly searched for their whereabouts during the ceremony...
He then recalled the episode where the Nine-tailed Fox from the Holy Mountain asked to meet him after being captured.
At that time, I was deeply pursued and under the official protection of the license holder, so I was unable to follow up on the matter in time. I think I must have missed some information.
But you can’t say for sure, maybe what you missed is a hidden danger.
Judging purely from the so-called crown prince status and the words and deeds of the two newcomers, the purpose of these two people looking for him is probably not good.
"I will kill you on the altar." The cold and stern man was the first to look away from the dwarf.
"Everyone will have to rely on their abilities when the time comes!" the dwarf said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, let's kill the Qianlong first and don't use it anymore."
The two ended the confrontation and continued to move forward side by side.
Then, they stopped near the big tree where Jiang Qian was.
The cold and stern man wearing a hood and cloak held the hilt of the sword, but the dwarf was already running towards the big tree one step ahead of him!
Jiang Qian tightly wrapped his invisibility cloak and watched the two people's movements without revealing anything...
"Ugh!"
With a moan, the woman's slender figure appeared in silhouette under the big tree!
"Hey, you are still a girl!"
The dwarf exclaimed in surprise, raised his hand and sent the young woman to his "ally".
The slender figure suddenly escaped from the dwarf's hands and was thrown at the feet of the cold and stern man. He timidly raised his head and looked up along the man's black boots and cloak...
However, before her cheeks could be fully raised, the man grabbed her collar and dragged her up from the ground, and the hoarse voice sounded again:
"Have you ever seen Qianlong not to be used?"
His question was so direct that the surprise and fear in the woman's eyes magnified at the same time.
"The official celebrity of the license holder, who has passed the "Whispers of the Inner Demon" and "Children's Paradise" high-level games, is in his early twenties, has short black hair, and is handsome... have you seen him?"
The cold and stern man continued to question in a more solemn tone.
The woman struggled to shake her head first, then nodded: "I've seen you, I've seen you!"
"Where?" The cold and stern man's expression softened slightly.
"In the……"
The woman swallowed the blood welling up in her mouth with difficulty. At the same time, she quickly glanced at the big tree next to her and whispered:
"If I tell you...can you let me go?"
The cold and stern man was silent for two seconds and then smiled:
"Of course. We will not kill any extra people to speed up the end of the game. Because we need time to hunt down the real target, do you understand?"
The woman was stared at by those scarlet upright children, with thorns on her back, and she nodded like garlic!
Jiang Qian was depressed at that time.
Having escaped the joint hunting by major non-lawful organizations, finally entered the promotion ceremony, and encountered an embarrassing situation that was suspected of "the crown prince seizing the heir apparent"?
What's ridiculous is that even his identity as "Crown Prince" was forced upon him...
Jiang Qian was speechless and ready to give it a go.
The cold and stern man called Shui Longyin tightened his grip on the woman's collar:
"Now tell me where Qianlong should not be used."
"there……"
The woman pointed in a direction:
"He's heading that way! A person with similar features, I'm not sure if he's Qian Long Don't Use..."
After the woman finished speaking intermittently, she timidly stared at the man's scarlet hole, trembling all over.
"oh."
The cold and stern man responded, grabbed the woman's chin, and threw her towards the big tree on the side!
boom!
Katsa.
The cold and stern man withdrew his murderous hand and grasped the sword hilt again.
"Oh, what's going on? I haven't asked clearly yet." The dwarf laughed.
"She's lying."
"Oh? So she has never seen Qianlong Wuyong..."
"No, she has seen it."
The cold and stern man said, looking at the big tree where Jiang Qian was:
"Don't use Qianlong. It's right here."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Qian's body had already made a choice: withdraw!
Rather than standing up to meet the enemy, taking action is the best option.
Under the influence of the invisibility cloak, spread your wings and soar into the air, activate your spiritual vision, and use the snake shadow to sneak!
Using Leng Yue as a reference, he always flew in a fixed direction from the forest.
The two people behind him followed him for a long time before they were gradually thrown away.
But Jiang Qian did not stop walking. He continued to fly in one direction, paying attention to the surrounding environment with his spiritual vision until he returned to the "starting point".
On the ground, there were still deep shoe marks left by the two men when they started chasing each other. The young woman who tried to "perjury" for him also fell to the ground unconscious.
Jiang Qian approached and checked the woman's condition, and found that she still had a faint breath.
"Hey, how are you?"
Jiang Qian tried to wake him up, but to no avail.
The other person's heartbeat has stopped and his pulse can no longer be felt.
So Jiang Qian performed first aid on the spot, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation and artificial respiration.
Fold your hands on the other person's chest, press rhythmically, then pinch the other person's breath, and lean over to rescue.
Under Jiang Qian's skillful rescue techniques, the woman's heart finally resumed beating. She coughed weakly a few times and opened her eyes...
"Do not kill me!"
Just as she was about to struggle, she saw Jiang Qian taking off his invisibility cloak and revealing his true face. Her face was filled with surprise and tears filled her eyelashes:
"You...don't use Qianlong?!"
Jiang Qian asked calmly: "How did you know it was me?"
The woman hesitated to speak, until her eyes filled with admiration and emotion: "I am a survivor of the "Children's Paradise"!"
"So that's why you want to repay me?"
Jiang Qian said calmly:
"But what you just did was too risky. Those two people are not good friends. You were too lucky."
"It doesn't matter! Today I have fully realized that with my qualifications, even if I meet the promotion standards, I have no chance of being promoted... I am not strong enough, so it doesn't matter if I am eliminated."
The woman held Jiang Qian's hand tightly, looked at her with admiration and continued:
"Master Qianlong will definitely pass the promotion ceremony smoothly, right? I know you can definitely do it, come on!"
However, at this moment, a cold edge slashed at Jiang Qian's back...
Jiang Qian quickly grabbed the woman's back and jumped forward, avoiding the sharp edge.
In the vision field of vision, Shui Longyin and the dwarf, the cold and stern man who had just been tracking him halfway, were already standing behind him.
The dwarf couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha... I can't tell that Qianlong Wuyong is still a sweetheart!"
The cold and stern man scoffed.
"The lover of temperament..." Jiang Qian lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms, "Am I?"
The woman was a little overwhelmed by what he saw, and she replied playfully: "I don't know... maybe the Qianlong God saved me just because he had kind thoughts?"
"Wrong. It's because..."
Jiang Qian pinched the woman's wrist, and amid the surprise of the woman and the two people opposite her, he put the woman's arms around her neck and tightened it around her shoulder blades.
In this way, as long as the force is appropriate, there is a chance to remove the opponent's head from his neck.
