Chinatown, this city is set up with characteristic retro Chinese buildings. Although it is a simulated environment, the simulation degree of this virtual world is as high as 99.99%. What you see, hear, and feel is the same as reality.
The world is almost exactly the same.
The cost of running the Star Wars Carnival is high. A total of 160,000 large and small groups and sects have sponsored this event. Only by truly entering it can you have an intuitive and new understanding.
The retro urban style, bustling streets, and dusty stone roads seem to bring people back to the land of fireworks in the south of the Yangtze River in ancient times.
Ding Meng also shuttled among the people on the street. He discovered an interesting phenomenon, because the people who came in were all contestants. Not only did everyone have different clothes, but most of them showed their true colors and raised their heads.
The id on it is intentionally displayed.
In fact, this mentality is easy to understand, because most people want to become famous and show their face in the Fengyun Conference, and they hope that as many people as possible know their name and appearance, the better.
The Tulip Inn is a very large and luxurious restaurant set up by the system. The antique style is quite attractive because it is located beside a large lake. When dining here, you can enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains that cannot be seen in the real world.
Ding Meng saw Dai Yi and Lu Qing at the door of the inn from a distance. The two of them flashed their IDs above their heads: "Bingyi-Dai Yi, Bingyi-Lu Qing", using their real names.
It’s just that the group name is added to the prefix, which is required by Blue Ice to increase exposure.
Of course, what really attracted passers-by to stop and watch was the way these two people dressed up. Dai Yi obviously bought the system's "Chu Liuxiang Chic Folding Fan Ancient Costume Set". He was dressed in white like snow, holding a fan in his hand, and put on light makeup on his face.
The key to a woman disguising herself as a man is that she is so lifelike in her disguise that she has both the tenderness of a woman and the heroism of a man, which is quite eye-catching.
Lu Qing, on the other hand, changed her past fashion girl style and actually started playing with ancient costumes. Her outfit was a typical Qing palace style suit, dignified and elegant. Standing next to Dai Yi, she complemented each other and was stunningly beautiful.
Ding Meng also showed his ID and took the initiative to step forward and said: "I said, you two spent at least tens of thousands of star coins on this outfit, right?"
When Dai Yi and Lu Qing saw him, they covered their mouths and laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" Ding Meng was confused.
His look is really unique. The collar buttons are fastened, but the hem buttons are not. Sure enough, "The song I heard this gentleman sing just now has aroused a feeling in my heart."
"Anger", no wonder it is called "a ball of anger".
"Husband, why don't you spend some money to buy some clothes?" Dai Yi laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight.
Ding Meng drooped his eyelids: "This is a suit, okay?"
Lu Qing was also laughing so hard: "I guess this is the cheapest suit, right?"
Ding Meng nodded straightforwardly: "Where are the 65 star coins? Do you think that's not money?"
The two of them were still laughing, but suddenly a rough voice sounded from behind: "Boss, sisters-in-law, I'm here!"
Ding Meng looked back and was startled. Jun Ling unknowingly touched behind the three of them. Jun Ling was dressed in a retro black outfit, black clothes, black pants, black leggings, and a scar on his face.
She was covered with a black scarf and a certain tawny bamboo hat on her head. Only a pair of shining eyes were exposed. She had a dog-leg knife on her waist. She looked like a heroine in ancient costume, and her voice was also
The sound of the jar sounded like a man's.
"It doesn't matter if you changed your image, your voice also became a man's." Ding Meng couldn't help it.
Jun Ling's voice sounded like beating a drum: "I'm trying to maintain a sense of mystery!"
Ding Meng looked up again and found that the ID on Jun Ling's head actually said - "Kneel down for labor and management."
Awesome!
Ding Meng almost knelt down. The brain circuit of the straight girl is not something ordinary people can understand. This name is just for fighting. The value of drawing hatred is the first.
Jun Ling pointed to the other side of the street: "I'm pretty good here. Look at them four times."
In the crowd of people in the distance, Ding Meng also spotted Si Yan and Mao Zi at a glance. To be honest, it was difficult for him not to notice them.
Siyan is wearing a short-sleeved woodcutter outfit. Well, it must be a suit, but it is probably cheaper than Ding Meng’s Jiangbao outfit. The classic ID on his head is Tao Hongshan!
He had a cigarette in his mouth and looked like he had been smoking for thousands of years. His eyes were narrowed by the smoke: "Boss, we are here!"
If Four Eyes still has the image of chopping firewood, then Maozi has no image at all, because Maozi didn't buy any clothes at all, and wore the system's default free clothes - a pair of grass-leaf pants, a pure tramp, and a head on his head.
Niucha ID——Ah Sha Ma!
Among all the contestants on the street, Maozi was the only one who was naked. The one who smoked the cigarette, half of the cigarette was gone after taking one puff. It was an absolute ten thousand-year-old pipe.
Ding Meng drooped his eyelids: "Image, image, Maozi!"
Maozi was also a little helpless: "I have no money, boss."
Dai Yi asked curiously: "Where is your money?"
"I've already bought cigarettes!" Maozi handed Ding Meng a pack of cigarettes, "Boss, come and smoke some Huazi, this is a brand-name product..."
Ding Meng waved decisively: "Okay, everyone is here, let's go in first!"
Before the Fengyunhui event, the official will hold a grand opening ceremony. This opening ceremony will be held at the Martial Arts Hall in the center of Star Wars City. All contestants can participate. The entire process will be broadcast live through remote real-time transmission technology, and you will not be able to enter the virtual world.
Citizens of the Federal Empire can watch the opening ceremony and all games online at home.
Ding Meng and the others watched the opening ceremony at the inn. All the advertisements, walls, and major places in Chinatown had live broadcast screens and light curtains. Naturally, the carnival, which is held every five years, would have big names in attendance.
It can be clearly seen from the screen that the first two well-dressed male and female hosts appeared. In fact, Ding Meng also knew the male host. The big star Ryuzaki who hosted the engagement ceremony in Feixing City was kicked into the water by Ding Meng.
However, this guy is lucky. Hosting shows have become more and more popular in recent years, so it is normal for him to be invited to the Star Wars Carnival this time.
The female host is from the Empire and is also a well-known entertainment star named Yang Qian'er. Of course, after the two hosts came on stage, they basically introduced the origins of the Star Wars League and the carnival to those who were participating in this event for the first time.
Have a clear and intuitive understanding.
This is not a grand event in the ordinary sense, but a national celebration.
After introducing the history of the development of Star Wars, the male and female hosts began to introduce the special guests. The number of special guests in the previous years was quite large. They were Ji Chenxue, the first national goddess from the Nuo Star Empire, and Sheng Hui.
The second-ranked beauty in the Federation, Lu Xiaobing, will jointly display the mysterious gifts for the battle of the kings.
This is a big attraction of Carnival, and it is also a ratings hit. However, Ji Chenxue did not appear on the stage this year, and Lu Xiaobing on the federal side was replaced by Cheng Mengjia, who ranked fifth.
Ding Meng noticed that many people in the inn lobby were booing at this moment. The reason was simple. The tenth carnival was of great commemorative significance, but the official did not invite the most important guests.
At the same time, in the conference room of Bingyi Building, Lan Bing and others were also watching the live broadcast. Lan Bing even had fun teasing Ji Chenxue: "Isn't it a bit regretful that you didn't receive an invitation for such an important ceremony?"
Ji Chenxue smiled slightly: "I have been a special guest for three times, and I am a little tired. This time I just want to be a quiet audience."
Liang Yiran said: "Where are Ding Meng and the others?"
Lan Bing explained: "You can't see it yet. You can only pay to activate the lock mode after they pass the pre-selection."
The opening ceremony was proceeding in an orderly manner. The last item was for the big shot to announce the start of the event. Three people were seen walking up to the rostrum, two of whom were obviously husband and wife. These were Bai Xingfei, the president of the Shenghui Federation, and the president's wife, La.
Bik Somantha.
Everyone has seen this president a lot on news and TV, but they still lack knowledge of the president himself. Liang Yiran explained: "President Bai Xingfei has been in office for 45 years. He is the only one who was re-elected after the Devouring World War.
President, the support rate in our federation is very high. The president’s wife Somantha comes from the Rubick family, which is also one of the top sectarian families in the federation. There will definitely be experts from the Rubick family participating in this Fengyun meeting..."
At this moment, on the other side of the rostrum, the head of the Nuoxing Empire Wenyang also walked up.
Ji Chenxue sighed secretly. She had been in contact with both big bosses, but she still felt that Head Wen Yang was far more terrifying than President Bai Xingfei.
Of course, when you reach that level of power, no one can save money.
At the invitation of the two hosts, the president and the head of state shook hands in a friendly manner on the podium. This scene is a classic moment that only occurs every five years. It also means that the frogmen of the Federation, Empire, and the predatory world will usher in a brief period of peace.
issue, and then the two big guys jointly announced: "The 10th Star Wars International Carnival has officially begun."
I saw fireworks blooming in the sky over Star Wars City, and hundreds of birds flying, creating a joyful and festive scene.
Now the first round of pre-selection has begun at various competition points in major cities. This pre-selection is actually the most lengthy part. After all, there are more than 50 billion players, and every one of them must be tested.
For Ding Meng and others, they can directly go to the nearest martial arts hall or martial arts gym for preliminary testing.
There are martial arts gyms on the three streets near the Tulip Inn. Ding Meng chose a martial arts gym called "Longdu". In fact, the martial arts gym is a virtual space set up by the system. After entering, there is an endless prairie, and there are already lines on the prairie.
There is a long line of contestants waiting for the pre-selected test.
I haven’t seen what the test is like, but there was a commotion behind me: “Get out of the way, get out of the way, don’t block the way!”
Ding Meng turned around and saw a group of luxuriously dressed players walking forward arrogantly. Looking at their arrogant looks, he knew they were about to jump in line. The ID prefix above the heads of these people was: Longdu!
"Who are these guys?" Jun Ling asked.
Dai Yi replied calmly: "The Longdu family of Blue Pole Star City is a martial arts sect and quite wealthy. It seems that they sponsored the carnival and they got the naming rights of this martial arts gym."
In the past, Dai Yi might have been a little wary of mentioning the name of this sect, but things are different now. With his strength leaping forward, he has the confidence to do so, and his tone is also an understatement.
Originally, Ding Meng and his party wanted to keep a low profile, but when this group of people passed by, they found Maozi who was almost naked and had a gray face, so they laughed mercilessly.
Maozi was immediately annoyed: "Why are you laughing? What's so funny?"
