The top four battles of Peak Contest S3 begin on time.
Because it is already the semi-finals, out of consideration for ratings and respect for advertisers, the time of the two games has been staggered; [Hell Front] and [Order] can have an extra day off in this round and wait until the second round.
Let’s fight again in the early morning of the 10th. The duel tonight will be between [The Alliance of Losers] and [Heaven’s Gate].

[Apex Contest S3, Semifinals]
[Venue: Cangyun Mountain]
When the members of the two teams entered the viewing space, this system voice sounded in their ears.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sentence "The game will start in thirty seconds".
In the vanguard battle, the two people who were introduced to the battlefield were [Tianma Xingkong] and [Sariye].
Everyone is familiar with the little pony, as for Suriel ... From the appearance, his face is the same as most of the casual players.
He was wearing a set of black and white clothing, and did not reveal any weapons or equipment on his body. It was difficult to determine what type of player he was.
Since this game is played under the influence of an "artifact", from the moment you enter the battlefield, the special effect of the [Philosopher's Stone] on the [Waste Alliance] side has the "Midas Touch"...
The countdown to take effect has begun.
The moment the barrier disappears, it is just thirty seconds, that is, at the moment of official start, the equipment and skills of Salihuan will have a "value improvement"; and at the [Gate of Paradise]
With the addition of Amulet, the degree of this improvement will be strengthened, and it is very likely that more than half of Sariel's skills and equipment will become ineffective immediately.
Of course, according to Hongye's analysis, in the face of this restraint, the countermeasures are also there; as long as the other party adjusts his own items and skills before the game, it is necessary to bring some equipment/learning conditions.
The combat power will be reduced a lot, but it is still better than carrying a bunch of useless gadgets.
【...two...one...fight!】
The countdown ended soon and the barrier disappeared.
In this kind of single challenge, Tianma Xingkong usually would not retreat in the preparation stage; and Sariel, it seemed that he did not retreat even half a step.
As soon as the fighting started, the two men fought hand to hand.
The audience all thought that what followed was going to be an earth-shattering, hearty and fierce battle...
However, the reality is...
buzzing
With a strange sound of energy surging, Sariel's eyes emitted a strange light.
The person he was glaring at was like a still frame in a movie, maintaining a half-finished forward movement and not moving at all.
…………
"Sure enough ... Is this kind of development again ..." At this moment, Gui Xiao, who was watching the game in the conference room, spoke with a very dignified look. Listening to his tone, the scene in front of him did not surprise him.
"You still can't see anything?" Sashimi asked from the side.
Obviously, this is not the first time they have discussed the topic of "Heaven's Gate".
"Ah ..." Gui Xiao nodded, "It is unable to observe at all, and can only roughly guess their ability through the performance of third parties ..." He paused and looked up at the sky in the live broadcast screen. "For example, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now,
Judging from the data on Tianma, his physical activities have been suppressed by some kind of ability, and even his energy activities have been restricted. The cost of activating this ability for Sariel seems to be just to continue to watch.
Just chasing the opponent."
"Well..." Sashimi muttered, "Judging from the game records so far, the seven members of their team have demonstrated such 'unreasonable' skills; there is no doubt that these abilities of theirs are
They are all permanent skills that can be used repeatedly..."
"The point...is not how powerful they are." Meng Jingchan interrupted, "but where did these guys come from?"
He paused for a few seconds, took a puff of cigarette, and then said: "About blocking Gui Xiao's 'data perspective', it's actually understandable... After all, the player base of Thriller Park is huge, and it can't be blocked even if it's blocked.
There are guys who can copy other people's skills, and it's quite normal for a few players who can "anti-data perspective" to appear.
"It's just that... in a team, seven players with related IDs all have this ability, and they all have super-class combat capabilities. The probability of this happening is terrifyingly low.
"What's even weirder is that these seven masters seem to be bosses created out of thin air. With our [Order] connections, we can't find any players who have come into contact with them in the script... Also searched on the game forum
There are no posting or reply records from their IDs... This is an almost impossible phenomenon among non-professional players.”
"Then what do you mean..." Ye Zhi heard something in his words, so he asked.
"Fuck" Meng Jingchan puffed out his smoke, "This team probably has something to do with Dream Company."
"Are you saying that they colluded with people within Dream Company?" Ye Zhi asked again, "Did they use some kind of plug-in developed by the game company itself? Or did they directly modify the data?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Brother Chan corrected him, "In the past year, Dream Company's style and execution ability have been obvious to all... If some of their internal employees colluded with outsiders to cheat, then this team would have been destroyed long ago.
They were found out and disqualified, and none of the internal staff could escape. Now, since this team has advanced all the way to the semi-finals without being investigated or punished, it means that Dream Company believes that they have no problem, and may even
...This team is actually supported by the officials behind the scenes."
Hearing this, Wu Shi Shen Xuan turned around and said doubtfully: "Your explanation makes sense based on the existing results, but what is the 'motive' behind it? Why did Dream Company arrange this in the competition?
A team? Does this do them any good?"
"This is something I've always been confused about." Brother Chan replied, "You said they were 'making stars'...the seven members of Team Paradise are all as low-key as absconders, and they don't look like them at all.
They want to be famous; let's say they are paid to 'sell champions'... How much money does it cost for Dream Company to do such a thing? To be honest, I personally feel... Dream Company is not a big deal.
A company that treats players as sons, they are a company that treats players as grandsons and capital as grandsons..." He shrugged and continued, "The only hypothesis I can think of now is...Dream Company has deployed such a powerful force.
Teams that are so strong that they appear to be cheating are in the competition just to use their hands to eliminate some specific teams or players..."
…………
While they were talking to him, on the battlefield, the "Vanguard War" had ended.
Tianma Xingkong, who was immobilized from the first second of the game, although he has been trying to break free from the shackles, he still failed in the end.
After a while, Sariel, who felt that he had "enough observation", could only sigh and said: "You do have a somewhat unique personality charm, and you also have certain potential and talent in some aspects, but in this final moment...
Those factors alone are not enough for you to pass the selection... Being unable to escape from the confinement of the 'Evil Eye' means that you have not been able to find an escape from the 'creature' in both 'power' and 'spiritual consciousness'.
The methods of this class, so the results are obvious..."
As he spoke, he slowly raised his head, looked at the sky, and didn't know who he was saying to: "Sorry, I'm not qualified."
After that, his eyes reappeared with strange light, and just by "looking" at the sky, they turned into white light.
The victory or defeat ended in this confrontation that was almost like hanging up and inexplicable lines.
The audience, the commentators, and even the contestants who had been eliminated in the previous dozen rounds... basically looked confused; only a handful of people, as well as some inhuman, higher-ranking beings, understood Sally's words.
What Ye said.
In any case, the score became 1-0.
Next, is the "backbone battle".
After a short rest period, [Raphael] and [Gabriel] from [Heaven's Gate], and [Honghu] and [Seven Kills] from [Waste Alliance] appeared on the field.
If the unconventional "elimination" seems a bit inexplicable and aggrieved, then these two people are more "submissive".
Under the premise of being restrained by the artifact, Raphael and Gabriel stood there for a full minute against the attacks of the two opponents. During this period, Honghu, Seven Kills, and Soul Intent were also used, but they were stunned.
Can kill one person.
This made Honghu feel like "Did I choose a fake artifact? Install fake equipment? Use a bunch of fake skills?"
Of course, not only him, Qisha and the audience also thought so...
One minute later, the two of them were evaluated respectively as "their skills stop here" and "the ambition is only to cultivate one's self", and then they were instantly killed by the two men from heaven with one move.
At this point, at least the audience has unanimously agreed on one thing. The members of [Heaven's Gate] are probably all ghost-level monsters.
Looking at all the games in S3 so far, it is indeed only the game between Gui Xiao and Shiva where a top player is allowed to attack at will for a minute and then easily counterattack.
Previously, because most of the opponents [Heaven's Gate] faced were second-rate fighters, and the most powerful one was [Hongying] without Xu Huaishang, players had a "upper limit" on their strength.
The feeling is still rather vague.
But in front of them, when they met the [Wasteless Alliance], they still showed that suffocating calmness and despairing combat power. This... cannot be described as ordinary "strong".
If it weren't for Dream Company's always tough style, and the team's low-key attitude that they can't be hacked at all, 90% of the players would definitely believe it if they directly said that they were a cheat without any evidence.
