Promotional posters and videos for the top eight teams are being expeditedly produced.
No need to take special photos, just capture the highlights of the game.
For example, the moment when the captain of the White Eagle Kingdom was knocked away by Xia Zhi's sword.
So cool!
Of course, it refers to Xia Zhi.
The White Eagle National first team also has a chance to play.
Before the start of the finals, the 8 defeated teams in this round will continue to compete to determine the 9th-16th place.
The game will be held seven days later on the day of the semi-finals.
Play a round first to determine the teams ranked 9-12 and 13-16.
The remaining two rounds will be played on the final day.
Otherwise, if we finish the game early, there will be only one game on the final day, and everyone will not be able to enjoy it.
After returning to the hotel.
Everyone had a big meal and went to the small bar to celebrate as usual.
"Come on, cheers for us all to make it to the quarterfinals!"
"Dry!"
"From today on, we are also world-class star card masters, let's do it again!"
"Do it, do it!"
"In addition, I would like to pay homage to Master alone."
"Wait, I want it too!"
"Count me in."
“Get in line!”
After two glasses of wine, everyone led by Xu Tuantuan came up with Gu Ci's idea.
Looking at the little guys actively pouring wine, Gu Ci said with a smile: "Shouldn't you go find A Li to challenge him? Why are you drinking me?"
"This is not called irrigation, it is called respect." Xu Tuantuan said seriously, "Respect our common idol, Master Gu."
"Yes, yes." Coco agreed very much with the little fat man's words.
Although she knew that Xu Tuantuan was looking for a reason to let Master Gu drink, to her, the little fat man was right, Master Gu was indeed her idol.
Coco thinks that the little fat boy’s headband is really good, and she can legitimately go to Master Gu for a drink.
If she was allowed to go there alone, she would really be a bit hesitant.
"Okay, come on then."
Gu Ci picked up the cup and poured wine, drinking one by one.
Don’t refuse anyone who comes, and don’t be timid at all.
Xia Zhi sat next to Gu Ci, wearing gloves and tearing up the roasted rabbit.
Tear off all the meat and put it on a plate.
Just drinking without eating can easily damage your stomach.
Xia Zhi tore off a lot of meat and found a pile of bones in front of him.
Because usually after drinking one glass, you will eat two more mouthfuls before drinking the next glass.
It's just that Gu Ci keeps forgetting.
Went to drink wine, and the fragrant roast rabbit meat was piled up into a small mountain on the plate.
Xia Zhi had no choice but to feed him personally.
Xu Tuantuan and others don’t need to eat roast rabbit.
Just eat dog food.
Ten minutes passed.
Gu Ci was beaten to the end.
As a good brother of Gu Ci, Lei Meng saw that these little guys actually teamed up to mess with Master Gu, so he decisively chose to side with Gu Ci and helped Gu Ci fill the cup that was not very full until it was as full as possible.
, lest others say that Master Gu is insincere.
It can be said to be very considerate.
Coach Yang and the previous champion also came to have a drink with Gu Ci.
Everyone toasted, except Lu Beibei and Lu Maomao.
During the meal, they talked about forbidden star cards for a while. Master Lu got so excited that he spilled the soup on his pants. Lu Maomao accompanied him back to the room to change clothes.
It just took a long time to change, and I don’t know what I was doing.
After Gu Ci drank a round, he didn't feel dizzy, but his face was slightly red.
"Boss Gu, please take a break first and we'll come back later," Xu Tuantuan said.
Xia Zhi picked up the fork on the plate and stared at Xu Tuantuan, as if to say: Come over and try again later.
Xu Tuantuan pretended not to see it and ran away.
Xia Keke is so fierce... Ke Ke quietly stuck out her tongue and hurried back to their table with the others.
Lei Meng also ran away.
It's not because of fear of retaliation.
Mainly because I don’t want to disturb Master Gu’s three-person world.
After all, he is a caring instructor.
Jiang Qianye asked the waiter to bring a cup of yogurt.
Looking at the row of empty wine bottles on the table, Jiang Qianye tilted his head: "Master Gu is very brave tonight, aren't you afraid of getting drunk?"
Before Gu Ci could answer, Xia Zhi said angrily: "It's not because of the little fat guy. In the afternoon, he said that he would goad A Li together, but then he suddenly came to go goad Gu Ci. It's so abominable!"
Gu Ci said it was not a big problem: "I also want to drink."
"That's different." Xia Zhi said, "It's not a question of whether you want to drink or not. With so many of them drinking from you, it's obvious that they are bullying others."
After saying that, Xia Zhi seemed a little angry and said, "No, I'll go back and bully you later!"
Jiang Qianye's attention stayed on the original meaning of Gu Ci's words: "You said you wanted to drink?"
Then should she satisfy Master Gu’s wish?
"That's right." Could it be that Gu Ci didn't know that a certain girl wanted to get him drunk again? He said he wanted to drink, and he told Jiang Qianye specifically, "Our three teams have all entered the quarterfinals. I
I want to drink more to celebrate, since I have nothing to do tomorrow, it doesn’t matter if I get drunk.”
Jiang Qianye: "Then I'll ask the waiter to bring two more bottles of wine, and we can drink them ourselves."
Listen, there are two things as soon as you open your mouth.
This is a rhythm that even Xia Zhi doesn't miss.
"...Let's forget it." Gu Ci pretended to hesitate for a moment, then stopped Jiang Qianye and said.
Jiang Qianye: "Master Gu, don't you want to drink?"
Gu Ci sighed: "Yes, I want to drink it, but Master Lu doesn't allow it. There will be a card maker meeting later."
"I am coming."
As soon as Gu Ci finished speaking, Lu Beibei and Lu Maomao entered the bar.
Lu Beibei asked Lu Maomao to play with Keke and the others, while he walked over quickly, looking impatient: "It's a meeting, it's a meeting!"
By the way, he also shouted to the previous champion who was drinking with Director Yang at the bar: "Come over for a meeting soon!"
Give it a try!
Jiang Qianye really wanted Tianhu to shovel Lu Beibei out.
Lu Beibei said in the afternoon that he would discuss the structure with Gu Ci and the previous champion in the evening.
But having said it before, isn’t there something wrong with not drinking at the bar late at night, not spending time with Lu Maomao, and instead discussing star cards?
Is this guy planning to spend the rest of his life with Xingka?
Jiang Qianye complained crazily in his heart.
Gu Ci couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Although Jiang Qianye remained expressionless, he could feel it from the way Jiang Qianye looked at Lu Beibei - the eldest lady of a certain association wanted to hit someone.
There is something to say.
You can't hide the look in someone's eyes that wants to kill you.
This is the situation Jiang Qianye is in now.
comfortable!
The corners of Gu Ci's mouth turned up higher and higher.
He admitted that Jiang Qianye has been relatively aggressive recently and is a bit unable to drive.
But it's always okay to piss off a girl.
Don't you want me to get drunk?
I want, too.
But I just couldn't drink it.
What to do?
So angry...
"So Master Gu deliberately said that he wanted to drink?" Jiang Qianye asked suddenly.
Deliberately saying that he wanted to drink? Xia Zhi looked at Gu Ci in confusion.
Obviously, the girl did not understand the twists and turns involved.
Gu Ci immediately smoothed the corners of his upturned mouth: "No, I really want to drink."
As if to prove this statement, Gu Ci asked Lu Beibei face to face: "How about we wait until tomorrow to discuss it during the day? Let's have some wine tonight and celebrate our victory."
Lu Beibei won't do it.
He and Lu Maomao only changed clothes for less than 20 minutes before rushing to the bar. Wasn't it just for the structural exchange meeting of the three genius card makers?
"A man must keep his word." Lu Beibei said, "Tonight is what we promised!"
Look... Gu Ci showed an innocent expression to Jiang Qianye.
It's not that he doesn't drink, it's that Master Lu doesn't let him drink.
It's all Master Lu's fault.
It's strange that Jiang Qianye believed him.
She even knew everything about Gu Ci, how could she not know Gu Ci's character?
The more serious Master Gu is, the less things are like what he shows.
It's just that Gu Ci doesn't admit it, and she can't force Gu Ci to admit it.
But that's okay.
She can wait.
The communication structure is not about the exchange of feelings. You can't communicate for one night, right?
When Lu Beibei and the previous champion have gone back to sleep, what excuse can Master Gu have to make?
Xia Zhi didn't mind leaving for the meeting.
After all, it was something promised, and Xia Zhi very much hoped that Gu Ci would always be a man of his word.
Especially when it comes to being her brother, you should always be her brother.
So it’s okay to talk about star cards in the bar.
With Keke and the others around, I won't be bored.
Think of it as consolidating Gu Cige's excellent quality of keeping his word.
"Brother Gu Ci, remember to eat them all."
Xia Zhi placed a plate piled with roasted rabbit meat in front of Gu Ci, gave some instructions, and then took Jiang Qianye with him to the table where Coco and the others were sitting, and joined the wine party.
The previous champion sat over with a glass of juice.
Had it been Director Yang who was sitting alone at the bar before Lei Meng came to Dayang Country, he would have gone back to sleep first.
He, an old man, can't play with young people and can't connect with each other.
Now with Lei Meng accompanying them, the two of them were eating peanuts and drinking wine while talking about the Star Palace battlefield, and they were quite happy.
Lu Beibei looked at Gu Ci and the previous champion seriously: "We don't have much time, let's get started."
As he spoke, he took out a recording pen.
Gu Ci: "..."
Last champion: "..."
Gu Ci: "It won't happen, it won't happen."
"Very well, I'm afraid I can't remember." Lu Beibei said seriously, "Which one of us will come first?"
"I'll go first." The previous champion took out the design of the sharing card.
So the three of them began to analyze more possibilities of the "energy transfer" structure.
The analysis lasted an hour.
Next, Lu Beibei also took out his own "Fire Poison" structure.
"Fire poison" is not the same as the "explosive poison" that Gu Ci originally thought of, but the principle is the same, there is fire hidden in the poison.
I have to say that exchanging ideas is a particularly good way for card makers to improve themselves.
When different ideas collide with each other, it is easy to create sparks of inspiration.
"I thought of another dirty trick." Gu Ci said.
Lu Beibei: "There is no such thing as dirty or dirty. A winning routine is a good routine."
The previous champion thought so.
Gu Ci: "..."
Why do you feel like these two people are in the underworld more than you are?
Lu Beibei urged: "Speak quickly, speak quickly."
Gu Ci sorted out his thoughts and said, "Do you still remember [blood collapse] about dog betting?"
Lu Beibei: "Remember."
"Yeah." The previous champion also nodded.
[Blood Collapse] is one of the more eye-catching cards in this World Cup so far.
Especially in the morning match between Subayili's first team and Olympus' first team, the entire Olympus team was almost wiped out, which once again deepened everyone's impression of the card [Blood Collapse].
Gu Cidao: "What do you think will happen if [Blood Collapse] is made into a negative effect and hung on the opponent like a poison?"
Lu Beibei: "?"
"What do you mean?" Lu Beibei didn't understand.
"[Blood Collapse] can absorb blood energy to increase its power, and it can be used as a debuff as well. The more seriously injured the person with [Blood Collapse] is, the more painful it will be when it explodes." Gu Ci said, "However, considering that poison is usually hidden in
What’s inside the human body may not be able to absorb other people’s blood.”
"That's very perverted." The previous champion smacked his tongue.
According to this statement, it is equivalent to planting a remote-controlled bomb in the opponent's body.
More poisonous than fire.
Fire Poison requires several stacks, but [Blood Collapse] only needs to be cast once.
Moreover, the number of stacks of fire poison consumes your own star power, and you need to use spell cards repeatedly to hit the same target.
[Blood Collapse], however, relies on the health of the opponent to grow.
In other words, [Blood Collapse] is using the enemy's energy to attack the enemy.
A complete and utter free prostitution.
And the most crucial point.
Blood gas itself is a type of normal energy in the human body.
It is almost impossible to detect by opponents.
If you are hit by fire poison, you can still feel a slight strange burning sensation in your body, but if you are hit by [hemorrhagic collapse], you may actually die without knowing how.
Lu Beibei: "I take back what I just said."
Gu Ci: "What?"
Lu Beibei: "You are really dirty!"
Gu Ci: "..."
Lu Beibei: "Does it conflict with fire poison?"
Gu Ci thought for a while and said: "Theoretically there is no conflict, but overlapping strokes must be used, otherwise there will be too many star symbols and not enough card surface."
"As long as there is no conflict." Lu Beibei said with excitement, "I can hide the blood collapse in the fire poison and explode it twice in a row to see who can withstand it."
Gu Ci: "..."
So who is dirty?
Soon, a complete star card design was released.
The three of us drew together and turned our ideas into drawings in minutes.
As for whether the drawing is correct, and if so, how effective it will be, we still have to make it into a card to know.
After discussing [Blood Collapse], it was Gu Ci's turn to figure out the structure.
Gu Ci took out the "permanent existence" structure of disposable cards.
There is no particular reason for choosing this structure, I just happened to think of it.
There are too many main structures in Gu Ci, so I will pick one out at random first, and when I return to China later, I will slowly share it with Lu Beibei and the previous champion when I have the opportunity.
There are also little flying birds.
Master Gu is very fair and will never favor one over another.
Thinking of the charming and innocent girl, Gu Ci took out another [Master Pen] and gave it to the previous champion.
The previous champion was flattered: "Isn't this not good?"
Hurry and put away the [Master Pen].
I’ll practice as soon as I get back!
Happy time is always short.
Several hours passed before I knew it.
After the three people exchanged ideas, the little fat man and others had already left.
The waiter also returned to the dormitory after get off work.
The bar that was bustling before suddenly became empty.
A pile of empty wine bottles was left on the table and floor.
There were only four of them left in the entire bar.
Well, isn't it three?
Who is the other one?
Of course it’s Jiang Qianye.
"Why didn't you leave?" Gu Ci asked.
"Waiting for you." Jiang Qianye said.
