The day has finally arrived for the second elimination round of the Robot World Competition.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the auditorium was already packed.
But the scene today is very different from before.
Because the audience can no longer see the arenas in the venue, the entire venue has turned into a huge display screen.
This is probably the first time that the audience has seen such a huge display screen, which is comparable to a football field.
"What's going on today? No competition? Isn't it a knockout round?"
"Yes, but why can't we even see the arena? Or are we at the wrong venue?"
"Don't think too much. If we walked to the wrong place, how could so many people go to the wrong place with us?"
"I heard that today's knockout match uses a new competition method called Pandora's Maze."
"Pandora's Labyrinth?"
"Yeah, that's right. I heard that players are allowed to choose a path to go on, and no one can tell which player they will meet on the way."
"There is actually such a setting!"
For a time, many spectators couldn't help but began to speculate about what kind of format today's game would take.
At this moment, the players from all three teams were gathered in front of a large elevator door in the stadium.
According to the organizer's instructions, they needed to take the elevator to a space on the third underground floor to participate in the competition, and were completely isolated afterwards.
After hearing this, Weslin couldn't help but think of the previous Machine King Contest, which seemed to be somewhat similar.
However, due to the large number of participating teams, the contestants will be divided into four batches, with 60 people in each batch.
Just as all the players took the elevator to the three underground floors, what appeared in front of them was a huge low space, as empty as a parking lot.
At the end of this space, there are four doors with Roman numerals on them reading "one two three four".
Seeing this, the players couldn't help but be confused and full of doubts.
However, the arrival of 240 players also made this empty place become lively.
"What are you doing here? Are those doors in front of the competition venue?" A'hao looked around and found that the only way to go was the four doors in front of him.
After Long Yi figured out the situation, he pointed to a person-high pillar not far ahead, with a box similar to a donation box placed on it, "If you guessed correctly, we will decide by drawing lots later.
The order of appearance, and then choose which door to take."
Everyone looked in the direction Long Yi pointed, and sure enough they saw the box.
Another special thing about this game is that the coaches of all the teams did not follow up, but stayed above to watch the game.
Therefore, this knockout round is a battle that only belongs to the players themselves.
But Weslin always felt that this seemed to be a rule formulated in response to the last incident where the list was hacked.
You must know that in the last knockout round, many teams left the game with regrets because they were assigned to a super strong team.
So this time, no one can tamper with the game.
"Hi! Weslin!"
At this time, a familiar voice came from the side.
Weslin turned his head and looked over, and saw Bobby, the captain of the African Casal team, walking towards him.
"Ah, it's Captain Bobby." Weslin said with a smile.
Bobby grinned, showing his signature big white teeth, "We meet again. By the way, do you know what happened in today's game? My team members are all a little panicked now."
Weslin shrugged, "I'm not very sure either. I believe there will be an answer soon."
"I found that today's players all looked a little uneasy. So did I."
"After all, this is the second knockout round. If it fails, another group of teams will leave the World Series."
"That's true." Bobby smiled and scratched his head.
Weslin glanced at the anxious faces of the Casal team members, and then said: "Are you in good condition today? You are still out at the stall after finishing so late."
Bobby nodded vigorously, "Well, not bad. Today is crucial for us, so we have to cheer ourselves up no matter what. After all, this is our last chance."
Looking at Bobby's optimistic look, Weslin could feel the pressure he was under, perhaps several times that of those other team members.
In this regard, he had to admire Bobby and his brother Kuqi for driving the whole team forward with their strength.
Suddenly, the elevator door not far away opened, and two staff members walked out of it.
They were wearing gray suits, and their leather shoes made a bumpy sound on the ground.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue began to become quiet, and all eyes were focused on these two staff members.
I saw one of the staff members holding a notebook and pen standing at the front. After scanning the audience, he said: "Welcome to the second round of the elimination round of the Robot World Competition. Everyone has been able to make it all the way to this point.
It can be said that they are all the elites among the elites.”
"Today, we will adopt a new way of competition, which is Pandora's Labyrinth."
"Wait a minute, I will ask you to draw the numbers in an orderly manner, and then according to the order of the numbers, decide who will enter first. There will be a total of four batches for the competition."
"When you enter Pandora's maze according to the numbers in your hands, you will see a space that completely subverts your regular competition. You can find your own opponents in it, just walk through the door."
"In addition, the losing party will leave the maze, while the winning party can continue to stay."
Hearing this sentence, all the players present looked confused.
"What do you mean? Doesn't it mean that the winners and losers leave at the same time, and then the next group of people enters?"
"What the hell is going on? Why can't the winner leave? What's the point of staying?"
"Somewhere in the dark, I suddenly had an ominous premonition!"
For a moment, the players all began to feel a little panic.
Uneasiness spread throughout the three underground floors.
But for some strong people, such rules make them smile bloodthirsty.
"Not bad, it's a bit interesting. It looks like it's going to be a wheel battle?"
"In this case, those weak chickens will suffer. How many rounds can they last in the wheel battle?"
The staff saw that the players were all talking about it, so they stabilized the order and said: "Okay, let me continue to explain. I believe many players have already guessed it, it sounds like a wheel battle."
