183. Oolong
After explaining the matter, it was already more than two hours later. Instead of leaving in a hurry, Insula accepted Zorin's invitation to come to the residence of Murray's team. Knowing that there was a little girl in their team, Insula went to the wine first and bought half a dozen chocolate cakes instead of the rum cakes that would make the little girl drunk. Although, these men still prefer the soft and moist taste with a hint of wine.
Although the Command program was over, the buffet with sponsor representatives, media partners, etc., continued almost late into the night. When everyone returned to their residences, Murray and Chirome were surprised to see Insula and Zorin sitting in the living room together, watching the broadcast of the ball game and drinking old whisky. The team's companions were surprised by the visitor's calmness.
This is Insula, the director of the CDC's Special Operations Department. However, his previous position was more powerful, as the chief instructor of wilderness survival training for all U.S. special forces. Murray introduced Sura to the cause, "Of course, this kind of person can't be an adventurer. ”
Murray's previous remarks that he was an active advocate of environmental protection like Zolin and Chirome, and that he was an opportunist who was obsessed with travel and exploration, and so on, so now, when there is another person who can be imagined to be extremely powerful after listening to the introduction, everyone also thinks that it is their kind of person, and it is naturally easier to recognize. In this world, everyone now feels as if nothing is impossible.
Insula was an extremely talkative person, and a box of chocolate cakes was so pleasing to these girls who were not very old compared to him. Insula, who looks to be in his forties and has some vicissitudes but is full of charm, is also a very eye-catching kind of man.
When Insula recounted the details of life and training in a variety of difficult terrains in a playful voice, everyone was captivated. If it weren't for the fact that we had to play the next day, we would have had a pleasant conversation until dawn the next day.
The first day of the second week of the Super Carnival was a very peculiar rì. Events began to appear on the huge chessboard. When a team is standing in that grid, such an event will be triggered. While the leading Kruger squad always wanted to try to trigger an event to play with because it was really fun, they rolled the dice that never made it happen.
And on this day, Pitt's team, known as "the most charismatic villain who insists on love and true evil in order to maintain peace on the earth, to prevent the destruction of the world", became the person they want to be - "villains".
This is indeed a very strange team, when the charismatic Pitt draws lots, he seems to have decided to bring together half of the cast of "11 Arhats", plus a group of Hollywood's most charismatic male stars. Pete, Clooney, Damon, Redford, Freeman, Willis and others gathered together to say that the positions on the chessboard, although because of their tacit cooperation, the items encountered were not too demanding. In the middle of the pack, the total points are only in the middle of the middle, but this team is undoubtedly very eye-catching. And this time, the "most charismatic villain" made a meritorious service, and they triggered the event "Close the entire area of a coordinate square for 3 days". And which coordinate square it is depends on the result of their re-roll of the dice.
There are quite a variety of facilities in the whole residential, competition and related service areas, and of course, the largest area is occupied by the players' living quarters. If you throw it at the residence of a team, the team will have to pack up and find a friendly team's residence for three days, which is also a ghost idea that the general command of the carnival event has come up with in order to make more tidbits.
As Pete shook off Kim Sè's short hair, just like his image in the movie, he smiled and rolled the dice, and everyone expected that the final result would not be themselves.
Sure enough, it's not the residence of any one of the squads, but an area that everyone has something to do with: the player service area. In this small coordinate square, the only 5-storey building, all the departments that provide services to the athletes are concentrated: the catering department, the information and communication service department and the laundry room.
This means that for the next three days, all the contestants will have to do whatever they want to eat, pick up the ingredients directly from the warehouse, and do the laundry, at least their own underwear. Actually, it's winter after all. In addition to the clothes worn in the competition, almost every player has several sets of clothes that are relatively easy to wear at home when they have been under the same roof with their teammates for a long time, and there is definitely a lot of work to do to wash clothes and dry clothes.
Of course, originally, the players could choose to change their clothes all the time, either by taking them from the headquarters warehouse or by asking their friends and relatives and sponsors to help them out, but because they have the right to interpret the rules, the headquarters will never allow such a thing to happen. They'll make sure the rules are explained so that the stars have to cook and do their own laundry.
The trigger event triggered one such result, and Pete's team became the target of public criticism, and they were repaired miserably during a three-team scuffle in a canoe water championship that day. And everyone watching the game also went to bless their opponents.
For most of the team, such oolong events have some impact, there are not many people who can do housework and are willing to do housework, in a team, doing housework can certainly show an older person taking care of the backward attitude, but it can also be a weaker strength and influence in the team A posture of submission to the strong, it all depends on the composition of different teams and how everyone understands such things. Whether the result is good or bad, that's hard to say. The scenery created by laundry and drying is certainly what reporters like to see, and how celebrities from all over the world unify their food and drink in a framework is also an interesting question.
This incident has had an impact on most of the squad, but for Murray's team, where Zuo Lin is cooking for Zuo Lin and Zuo Lin is not there, diet has never been a problem. On the contrary, when some of the teams were in a hurry, Zuo Lin stewed a pot of delicious haggis soup casually. Coupled with a few side dishes that combine Chinese and Western, everyone's morale is greatly boosted. And the laundry, Dominic Ingrahan took it all without saying anything, and now she is still on the bench and has not contributed much to the team, and in the team, she and Eva Solbo are much older than everyone else, this arrogant actress outside, is just such a good wife and mother.
The closure of the player service area not only added countless highlights to the carnival's broadcast team, but also affected the game to some extent. For example, the Pete team that caused this incident was happy to set up a barbecue grill in the garden at the beginning, drinking beer and eating barbecue, but the next day they were humiliated again on the field when they had collective diarrhea.
Murray's team's luck with the dice roll seemed to come to an abrupt halt after that perfect 18 points, even as they tried to catch up. But when the Kruger team suddenly jumped 15 squares on the board, Panpania only rolled 8 points. Not only did he not be able to catch up, but he also faced the possibility of being challenged to the second position by the team behind.
The challenge was by no means something the Murray squad feared, and while they were never looked up to, they still managed to finish second. Among them, the all-round strength of Zuolin, Murray and Chirom is certainly an important reason, but the persistence of the female xìng in the team at critical moments is also an important part. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything but drag my feet.
On the first day of the second week, Murray's squad had another bye, and the team behind them was only 2 blocks away from them. Now everyone has cards and items in their hands, and confrontation can happen at any time. However, after this eighth round, there was an exchange of personnel that everyone was a little incomprehensible. The captain of the Barramon team, that is, the Barramon who fought hard with Zuolin in the arena, was exchanged to the Kruger team, and now the captain is the singer Sadia, who is a quarter witch blood.
There must be something wrong with this, and the command and reporters can't get anything out of the mouths of the people involved, as if everything happened as it should be, but the problem behind it is difficult to say. Sadia's witch bloodline, the magic totem she drew on Baramon during the arena, and her status as a member of the "Truth Society" made Zorin and Murray a little uneasy. And as a member of the watchmen, Chirom is even more elevated.
What made Zuolin even more strange was that two days later, Insula returned to the edge of the arena and sat quietly watching the game. Insula didn't pay much attention to the game of Murray's team, but instead stared at the current Sadia team. It just so happened that on this day, the Sadia team participated in a variant version of the triathlon, which was the most interesting and intense event of the day. But because of Sula's performance, it didn't seem like she was watching the game, but like watching Shadia.
"What happened?" When Zolin asked Insula that afternoon, Insula raised his eyebrows and said, "The offices of the Society of Truth in England, Norway and Iceland have been copied. Bernard, Sophie and Vichnik led the way. The people of the Truth Society were so stupid that they deserved to be unlucky when they went to the headquarters to sue the guys at the headquarters because the Watchers had returned to the council. The Society of Truth is not going well in South America, and there seems to be internal divisions. After the three offices were cleared, they sent someone to the headquarters to negotiate, but the negotiator was killed by the Truth Society's own men. It happened very quickly, and both sides did not have time to mobilize many people, and both sides were in chaos. The headquarters means that it is up to you to decide whether or not to make the Operations Division active, and I will be responsible for intelligence support throughout the process. …… Unfortunately, this happened at this time, and I was a little worried about what this guy would do. She is Norwegian. In case she goes crazy, it's not easy for you to get attention right now, so I'm going to take a look. Sadia's strength is not weak. ”
"Isn't the strength weak? By what standard?" Zuo Lin frowned, although he hadn't measured Sadia's strength, the innate limit of a quarter of the witch's bloodline determined that Sadia was not much stronger.
"By the standards of ordinary people, of course. It's good for everyone to keep the carnival going smoothly. You can't let that woman go crazy and make some bloody crimes, then it's going to be troublesome. And the witch bloodline...... It's also a bloodline that is prone to falling into a state of madness. In the carnival activities, the truth will have a lot of investment, and the profit sharing of broadcasting and advertising is considerable. I'm afraid the truth will do more than I get home. They are now absolutely unwilling to engage in a full-scale conflict with us. And we? hehe, you think I don't know about what you bet on with Murray? You just work hard. ”
