With the official deadline for registration, the number of contestants in this Star Reacher Competition has also exceeded the 500 mark after accounting. Among them, the number of seventh-level magicians has reached an unprecedented 30%. The people have already called this competition
This is the most fiercely competitive session in history.
The announced competition system has undergone major changes. The Duderan Business Federation has officially canceled the original simple and crude single-elimination competition system in the main competition stage, and instead adopted a group points system to prevent some originally strong players from losing due to luck.
In the early stages, the favorite was eliminated directly.
Moreover, even if they perform poorly in the group standings, qualified players will still have the opportunity to resurrect. This is also true when entering the official knockout stage. The new loser group system will help to make the system clearer and more intuitive.
Star Reachers are ranked based on their strength.
Lu Yu believes that this is already a relatively mature competitive sport operation. If Durderan's business complex continues to reform in the future, allowing people to participate in more than just gambling, perhaps this Duderland continent's signature
It will be louder, just like the streamer trial that Nihil is planning.
Today's Duderan is really a gambling carnival. On the streets, whether farmers or businessmen, they can discuss the Star Reacher's bets for a long time. At this moment, they can completely ignore each other's identity and focus on all the key points.
All are placed on "gambling".
The mature Star Reacher Competition also means that the gambling industry that accompanies it is full of vitality. Soon after getting the contestant's identity card, a casino used a gold coin as a stepping stone, hoping to get a chance to talk to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu could probably guess what the other party wanted to do and refused without thinking.
For the preliminary round, the three of them were very relaxed. They spent the days waiting in the tavern either reading or playing cards.
Herola was relatively nervous, and the knowledge that Lu Yu kept feeding her overwhelmed her. The novelty of a new field, and mastering advanced magic knowledge for the first time was quickly washed away by the questions that frequently lingered in her mind.
Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning is dangerous. As a curious baby, she appeared in every opportunity between the teacher and Sierra, who were laughing and joking. After asking a series of questions, she took the time to digest them, and then looked at the right time and repeated
The above operations cycle back and forth.
Finally, she succeeded in summoning... the Book of Knowledge without the guidance of a teacher.
This is the most useless summon for Herola, because the ability of the Book of Knowledge is to release all kinds of magic learned by the summoner himself and drown the opponent with a saturation attack. Lu Yu has not used it for a few times so far.
First, because his blue bar was really not long, even though it had grown a lot now, it was still significantly weaker than Sera and Lulu, so he began to think about the feasibility of an external magic storage device for summons.
Herola's troubles were a little different from Lu Yu's. She had no magic reserves before. When the book of knowledge was summoned, she could only turn the pages into mascots, open and close them, turn into butterflies, and fly to her.
Mid-air to make her happy.
In order to solve her embarrassing situation, and to see who had more characteristics compared to her and Mu Mu, Lu Yu summoned summons one after another that were not in the template system, and decided to expand the boundaries of her summons.
Not long after coming into contact with the Flesh Chariot, Mu Mu became familiar with it, and successfully obtained the response of the Flesh Chariot after only two attempts.
Which summon does Herola resonate with?
She first walked past the flesh-and-blood chariot, Lu Yu's elder-level summon. Without Lu Yu's intervention, Cha Che extended his tentacles over very enthusiastically. Herola was far less surprised than when she first saw it.
, but smiled and touched it and responded.
The second incarnation of Mercury Ball, who also had great military achievements, kept jumping on the ground. When he saw Herola approaching, he took the initiative to gather a hand and shook her friendly hand. Herola's reaction was the same as before,
She looked at Lu Yu and shook her head, indicating that she didn't feel anything special.
A squirming darkness made Herola stop and stare. The morning glory extending from the darkness politely tapped her feet, as if to say, look at me, look at me.
"teacher……"
Seeing Herola staring straight at the quiet garden, Lu Yu walked over and patted her shoulder: "It's an indescribable feeling. I understand. I also felt that way when I summoned the flesh and blood chariot for the first time.
.”
After giving Herola the method of summoning the Serenity Garden and instructing her on the details, Lu Yu stopped providing assistance.
The final step of summoning must be completed by the summoner himself, and he cannot replace it.
"Xiao An, while I'm going back to the Summoning Temple, you can give me a massage."
Every time he stayed in the temple for a long time, Lu Yu's body became severely stiff when he returned to reality. This time he decided to make a change.
After Lu Yu left, Lu Lu smiled at the small light hanging on the ceiling as a lighting crystal: "Your master always seems to prefer Xiao An, because Xiao An behaves very delicately, which suits his taste."
?"
Hearing this, the stable light source suddenly flashed.
The corner of Sierra's mouth twitched as she was reading, but she said nothing and decided to watch the fun.
Entering the temple, Lu Yu was surprised to find that Orkus was sitting at the round table discussing something with the red hair. His arrival temporarily interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Let me think about it."
Saying this, Orkus stood up and walked to Lu Yu.
"She offered the deal again."
"What are the chips?"
"It is [Shadow Kingdom]'s experience in strengthening the utilization of shadow substitute magic power and improving its actual combat power, but according to my guess, this experience is not very useful. She hopes to get a template that has both offensive and defensive attributes.
"
"Can't the [Mimetic Monster] and [Mimetic Plant] I gave her do this?"
"Limitations." Orkus said, "Disguising, then launching an attack, and using the damage left after the death of the summoned creature to block the enemy does not seem to be enough for her."
"That is to say, what she wants is a more active template... Do you know her purpose?"
"We didn't talk about it, but this time, she wasn't as calm as before and seemed a little anxious. I don't know what made her change her mind."
Lu Yu thought for a moment and sat at the table instead of Orkus.
"I'm also interested in the transaction between you."
The red-haired man frowned: "You also want to participate? What can you provide?"
Lu Yu snapped his fingers, and a white shadow condensed from the wind element flashed past in the hall: "I have the [Elemental Life] template. This template may be in line with your idea of pursuing 'initiative'."
The red-haired person was keenly aware of something: "Who are you?"
"Perch, who else could it be?"
"Your words gave me a sense of déjà vu, just like..." the red-haired man looked deeply, "a briquette."
It just so happened that Lu Yu didn't want to play house. He chuckled and said, "Should I say your intuition is very good? Your Shadow Kingdom is very good. I like it very much."
"You have mastered so many templates?" The red-haired man was surprised.
"Maybe there are more." Lu Yu said, "Now, can we have a frank chat? For example, why do you urgently need to summon the template?"
"Is this important to the transaction? We all get what we want. It would be dangerous for us to disclose information about the reality."
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, a source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org]
"You don't have more chips to exchange with me, unless you can provide more besides Shadow Kingdom."
"You clearly know that Shadow Kingdom is better than the two templates you gave." The red-haired voice was always cold and angry, "I found out and used it several times. The usage scenarios of mimic monsters are more biased.
It is passive and has some limitations.”
"A template without obvious limitations should be a stepping stone to becoming a pioneer." Lu Yu tapped his cheek, indicating that there was no need to be so excited.
Silence spread in the temple.
"Are you the like-minded friend in Shushan Pass?"
"I thought you should have guessed it."
"Earlier, I thought it was just a story for him to comfort, and it was fiction. To be honest, your story doesn't sound very real."
"That's for you, because you haven't experienced it, so you can't imagine it."
"I admit that my imagination is very limited." The red-haired man took a deep breath, "After all, my world is very, very small."
The red-haired man sighed and changed the topic: "Since you and Shushan both believe that pioneers should work together, can you prove it?"
"The way you want to prove it won't be to summon a template for you and let you have sex for nothing, right?"
The red-haired face suddenly turned red, her lips moved, and her eyes subconsciously moved away: "The dirty words in your mouth are really harsh."
"Ah?" Lu Yu and Orcus were both stunned.
They took a moment to confirm that it was the word "white prostitution" that caused the red hair's discomfort. Lu Yu politely apologized and said he would pay attention to it later.
"Let me put it another way, do you want to take away my template without giving anything?"
"We are all pioneers. How much power can a template exert? Everyone knows that you took advantage of the last transaction."
"The art of negotiation and trading is a science. It is normal for someone to pay for their own imprudence and naivety." Lu Yu emphasized, "I will not feel guilty for this kind of thing."
"Even if it's the Pioneer who's being tricked?"
"I won't play tricks on Shushan, because he is my friend, and you are not." Lu Yu said bluntly, "You who are keen on pursuing uniqueness, authority, and becoming a god will not look at the concept of the responsibility of a pioneer representative rationally.
.”
"I can also be your companion."
"It's too hasty. How should I trust your sincerity?"
"I am willing to swear an oath to the world as a pioneer in summoning."
Lu Yu and Orkus frowned in unison.
There was a different determination in the red-haired eyes.
"Can I know what exactly you want to do?" Lu Yu asked the red hair's purpose for the last time.
