Chapter 1173 The preliminary round ends and the finals warm up!
"Give me a little bit, don't delay my check-in! # fierce"
"Damn it, why do I feel like there are more and more people? #glance"
"GMNMSL! I can't even move a step for a long time with my server stuck!"
"I can't walk, I can't walk at all..."
“Warm reminder, press ALT+F4 to block everyone with one click~ #笑”
"No, how can I remember whether it's F9 or which one? If it doesn't work, I have to try first..."
"Did the brother in front squeeze in?"
At this time, with the official start of the Marathon in Jianye City, everywhere you look is occupied by players who can't see the air. There are endless shouts of people checking in and taking pictures, and the excitement is unprecedented.
As the 'initiator' of all this, Fang Yun was wearing headphones at this time, chatting with Beast Master and others who were also waiting for the player to post pictures, while controlling Qian Cheng to join in the fun with the crowd.
Although Jianye City is not big, due to the large number of participating players and the impact of server lag, no one has completed the city check-in marathon that originally only took a few minutes to complete.
No one has completed the Jianye Tour Check-in yet, so Fang Yun was enjoying his leisure time, following the large group as they passed check-in NPCs one after another, and he also took a series of group photos along the way.
And others who had the same behavior as him were Beast Master and others.
As the people behind this competition, the results of Beast Master and others are not included in the calculation.
But this did not hinder their desire to participate in the grand event. Each of them took advantage of the fact that no one came to the door to post pictures, and seized all the time to complete the record of all NPC check-ins.
"It's strange, I've already clocked in as the warehouse manager in just a short while, why hasn't anyone else completed the tour yet?"
As another photo taken with the warehouse manager of Jianye Airport was completed, Master Beast smacked his lips and did not continue running towards the next NPC, but couldn't help but ask in his voice.
Hearing this, before Fang Yun opened his mouth, he heard Huang He spit out unceremoniously: "Aren't you talking nonsense? In order to do experiments, Mr. Fang took our group of managers on several routes before. If this were the case,
If you can't outrun those who are participating in a marathon for the first time, you might as well find a piece of tofu and just kill them!"
While scolding the beast master, Huang He kept his hands on his hands and quickly completed the photo with the welcoming monk, running non-stop towards the penultimate NPC 'Teacher' before the finish line of this marathon.
But before he could reach the location, he saw the YY icon that he had specially called up and hung on the right side of the screen suddenly started to jump.
"I wonder, can anyone really be so fast?"
Looking at the jumping window, Huang He was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing. He didn't bother to check in anymore, and quickly opened the chat window to review the pictures sent by the player named "Yesterday Sunset".
At the same time that Xianyang sent his check-in photo of himself to Huang He, the YYs of Fang Yun Beast Master and others began to beat almost at the same time.
Obviously, the time for the first batch of players to complete the check-in is very close, and it is even open to question whether the former sunset was the first to complete the level.
As more and more players sent check-in pictures through YY, Fang Yun and the others, as expected, gradually became anxious.
Fortunately, these players have very specific time records when they send pictures. Even if they do not check them immediately, they can accurately complete the ranking through the time records.
While they were busy counting the lists, Bianliang City's world channel began to become a chaotic dance as more and more players completed their check-in.
"Wow haha! I must be the first one to send a picture to Brother Cheng. I am sure to win the first place in the preliminary round! #德义#得得"
"How dare you brag like this after running for a few minutes? I haven't even spoken for 4 minutes and 30 seconds."
"Put it down. I have the nerve to show it with 4 minutes and 30 seconds. Isn't my time of 3 minutes and 20 seconds sure to win first place?"
"I believe the one that's 4 minutes and 30 seconds. As for the one that's 3 minutes and 20 seconds, show me the evidence and I'll chop it up on the spot. If you can't get it out, just wait to die!"
"Damn it, I'm still stuck in welcoming the guest monk, and you guys have already finished it?!"
"What the heck! Judging from this pace, my place in the finals may not be guaranteed. I'm still stuck with the warehouse manager!"
"Friendly reminder, press ALT+F4 to speed up sprinting~"
"Please brothers, please give me a place for your sister... #Blush"
"I really can't let this go, how about next time? Next time for sure!"
As more and more players who have completed the tour around Jianye City are showing off in the world, some players who have not yet completed the tour are becoming more and more anxious.
Especially those who are just one step away from the final goal, the mouse that is already anxious is about to die.
Although the top 200 in the preliminary round will get 1 million red envelopes, most players still want to rush into the top 100, because that means they can participate in the finals and have a chance to win four red babies or priceless super beasts!
The players who didn't reach the finish line were anxious, and Fang Yun and the others in charge of statistics weren't doing much better at this time.
"Damn it, if I had known this, I wouldn't do this job even if I were killed!"
Once again, he submitted a batch of IDs and time records to Sujiu, who was in charge of the president's preparation. After working for a long time, Mr. Beast finally had time to rub his sore wrists and couldn't help but complain in his voice.
Although he had long expected that the enthusiasm of marathon players would be unprecedentedly high this time, when a large number of players came towards him like a roaring tsunami with countless photos, Beast Master was still a little overwhelmed.
He felt like his eyes were almost blurry.
The others were similar. Except for Fang Yun who didn't care about the workload due to his strengthened physique, everyone including Su Jiu looked a little embarrassed at this time.
Fortunately, this statistical work is coming to an end soon.
Their method of counting the tables is very simple. Fang Yun Beast Master and others are responsible for receiving and reviewing the photos sent by players. After confirming that they are correct, they will submit them to Sujiu, who will make a detailed ranking.
And since only the top 200 players are rewarded, they actually only need to count the IDs of the top 200 players. Once the 200th player is confirmed, the preliminary marathon will be officially over.
After a while, Sujiu told Fang Yun that the ranking of the 200th player had been determined. Everyone who heard the news breathed a long sigh of relief involuntarily.
But it’s finally over!
After Fang Yun heard that the list had been confirmed, he immediately asked Sujiu to send the list, and then read it carefully.
After reading the list, Fang Yun nodded slightly, then returned to YY's tens of thousands of people hall, cleared his throat and turned on the microphone and said: "I announce that this Jianye Marathon preliminary competition is officially over! The top 200 player IDs have been tallied
Come out. Next, our team will announce the IDs of all 200 players through the world channel in the game. Players who see their IDs can come to me on the rooftop of Chang'an to receive a 1 million red envelope."
As he spoke, he put his hand on the keyboard and directly sent out the IDs of the top ten players and the final results.
[World] Qiancheng: "First place: Sunset in the past, duration: 3 minutes and 54 seconds.
Second place: The master was taken away, time spent: 3 minutes and 55 seconds.
Third place: Xuan and Shang, time spent: 3 minutes and 59 seconds..."
With the announcement of the top ten player IDs in this preliminary round, the first reaction of all players who saw this list was to widen their eyes to see if their names were there. When they found out that they were not on the list, they were all disappointed.
"What a bunch of fucking perverts! It's obviously their first time to run, but these people actually ran into four minutes, which is fucking outrageous!"
"I ran in six minutes and thought I would be on the list. It seems I was overthinking..."
“I’m just going to say that the person in front of me who said he ran for 3 minutes and 20 seconds is bragging, right?”
"Cheating, these people must have cheated!"
"If you can't run away, just accuse someone of cheating. That's all you'll be able to do."
"There is no way. The main reason is that the server is too stuck. I guess those who can run within 4 minutes must be the first batch to leave. At that time, the stuck was not particularly serious."
"Don't worry, brothers, this is just the top ten list, there are 190 more that have not been announced yet."
"Wrong, it should be 90. The 101st to 200th place can actually get a consolation prize, but they won't be able to compete in the finals..."
Once the gorgeous results of the top ten were announced, it really blinded many people's eyes. Some players couldn't accept it and even clamored to report them for cheating.
Of course, cheating or anything like that is impossible. With the golden partners of Fang Yun and Su Jiu, this report card can be said to be full of weight and there is absolutely no way it could be watered down in the slightest.
In fact, Fang Yun was actually quite surprised when he first got his transcript.
You must know that these players achieved this result after temporarily learning the rules of the marathon.
He had tried to record when he was running the route before. When the network was good, there was no lag, and the route was very familiar, his best time to check in with all NPCs and complete the tour was 2 minutes and 28 seconds.
But that can only be regarded as the most ideal state. You must know that the entire Bianliang City was absolutely jammed during the race today. These players managed to run within 4 minutes despite such a huge delay. Fang Yun was worried
Ask yourself, even if he comes by himself, that's probably the case.
Without thinking any more, after announcing the IDs of the top ten, he typed again in the world: "Starting from this list, players who appear on the list can come to Chang'an rooftop to get a 1 million red envelope from me.
.”
After finishing speaking, he was about to notify Mr. Beast to announce the IDs of the 11th to 20th place, when he suddenly remembered something and posted another paragraph on the World Channel.
"By the way, players who are not on the list must not have the idea of claiming it by false claims. We have records of every player ID on the list. If someone claims false claims, once verified, we will permanently blacklist them.
The list will not be allowed to participate in any future events!"
After warning those players who might fish in troubled waters, Fang Yun felt relieved and immediately handed over the stage to Beast Master and the others.
When the players in Bianliang City saw his last warning, they couldn't help but praise him.
"No need to say, be rigorous!"
"Here I go, I was just thinking about what to do if someone created a small account with a similar name to pretend to receive red envelopes, but it turns out Brother Cheng had already thought of it."
"Actually, I guess what Brother Cheng is really guarding against is someone using a fake account to participate in the marathon finals later. After all, it is easy to misunderstand some similar names in this game."
"Damn it! Another way for me to make a fortune has been blocked..."
"No, no, no, no one wants to claim even 1 million, right?"
"If you ask me, Brother Cheng shouldn't remind you. In this way, Brother Cheng can enrich his blacklist, and we will have fewer opponents in the future, right?"
"Tsk tsk, you are still taller..."
Many players were praising Fang Yun's decision on the World Channel at this time. It was not until Beast Master sent out the IDs of the 11-20 players that these people took back their thoughts and immediately went to study whether there were any in the second batch of big lists.
own name.
Time passed slowly as batch after batch of lists were announced.
During this period, Fang Yun, who had already rushed to the rooftop of Chang'an, became busy again. The number of Dream Coins in his backpack decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. When all 200 players on the list were announced, his 200 million Dream Coins
All were distributed.
However, although 200 people received red envelopes, the mood of these players was completely different.
The top 100 people who received red envelopes for their previous results were naturally overjoyed. After all, compared to the 1 million red envelopes, being able to participate in the finals was the most important thing to them.
And those players ranked outside 100 are in a more bitter mood.
Being outside the 100th place means that they have lost the qualification to participate in the finals. Although there is still a million red envelopes available, this thing is obviously a consolation prize, and getting it will only make people more depressed.
Fang Yun couldn't care less about this at this time. After handing out the red envelope of 200 million Dreamcoins, he put his hand on the keyboard and started to warm up for the upcoming finals.
"All the red envelopes for the Jianye Marathon preliminary competition have been distributed. Players who have not received the red envelopes do not need to be discouraged. I believe that you will be able to complete the counterattack in the activities in the next two days!"
First, he comforted the players who had failed to achieve anything in this marathon competition. Then, after the cool-down time for the World Speech was over, he continued: "Then, all the players who have reached the finals will get a period of rest.
We will officially start the finals at four o'clock in the afternoon, and we hope that all the contestants will not be late."
"What, the final has to wait until 4pm?"
"Yeah, I thought the finals would start right after the preliminary rounds."
"Is there something wrong with this? After all, the basic rules of the marathon have been exposed in the preliminary competition. It will not start until four o'clock in the afternoon. I am worried that someone will use this time to cheat..."
"It's not whether it will happen, but it will definitely happen!"
"Don't worry, since Brother Cheng dares to set the final time at 4 o'clock, it means that he already knows it. We just have to wait and watch the excitement."
"I hope so..."
When they learned that the marathon final would not start until four in the afternoon, many players' first reaction was to look at the time. When they found out that it was not even three-thirty, they couldn't help but start talking.
Although most of them have been eliminated in the preliminary round, because the Spring Festival Gala held by Qiancheng is too conscientious, many people do not want anything to go wrong in the following marathon finals and the activities tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
