Spectate the game
Group B matches began, with the first match being played between the 2nd-ranked Gafreshak and the 9th-ranked Tyrone. Both teams were eye-catching in the first round, with Gafreřák deliberately losing to bottom-of-the-group Gude and Tyrone beating Diaz two places above them. It can be said that this is a match between the two strongest teams in Group B, and the audience is looking forward to it, but some people are worried about whether the Gafreřak team will continue to fake the match.
Darko's heart moved, and he asked Kevin, "After the last match-fixing, will anyone bet on the Gafreshak game?"
Kevin took out a piece of paper and looked at it and said, "It did affect it a little, but it wasn't too big, it didn't affect the opening." After all, the Gafreshak family must have an orc commander to participate in the competition, and they must win the championship, and only by winning the next two games can they guarantee qualification. Therefore, the Gafreřak team will not release water in this game, so the outcome will be easy to judge. ”
"Well, that's right, how many minutes?"
"It's a little strange to make the time, this one is six minutes for the home team. Kevin said strangely, but his expression was smiling, "It stands to reason that in the first round, the 11th-ranked Tyrone team defeated the 8th-ranked Diaz team, and people have seen the strength of the Tyrone team, while the Gafreshak team is a fake game, so it will naturally be lowered a notch psychologically." Therefore, most people believe that it is impossible for the Tyrone team to not last even 6 minutes, and they will buy the home team to lose. ”
Darko thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's right, that's right, if it were me, I would also buy the home team to lose." Why is this happening? Could it be that the data at the time is wrong?"
"The casino has the strongest team of actaries and appraisers, how can such a low-level mistake occur?" Kevin said as he brought the paper full of match odds to Dacko, "You can see what the 12 odds are for the win-loss bet and the time period of the game?"
Darko frowned tightly and looked at it for a while, only to find a clue, pointing to one of the odds and saying, "Generally speaking, the banker's expectation of the game time can be seen from the odds of the time bet and the time allowed by the winning and losing bets, which is basically the time period with the lowest odds, which also shows that the time period has the most betting funds." But the lowest odds are 20-25 minutes, but the time is only 6 minutes, isn't that a big difference?"
Half an hour of arming time had arrived, and the iron gates on both sides opened at the same time, and the orc warriors and orc commanders rushed out and converged towards the center of the ring at great speed.
"That's right, that's it!" Kevin snapped his fingers, "When everyone thinks this is a protracted battle between the two powers, giving the highest odds of 20-25 minutes and only 6 minutes of handicap respectively is to put everyone's expectations between 6 minutes and 25 minutes, so we ignore the possibility that the away team also has the possibility of giving up the game!
Before Kevin could finish speaking, a dull voice resounded throughout the audience. Following the prestige, I saw the orc leader of Gafreshak's team standing majestically in the center of the ring, and at its feet, the orc warriors of Tyrone were prostrate on the ground unconscious. But it seems that the defense on the orc warrior's body is very good, and that attack did not cause it much damage.
The instant winner came as a surprise to most people, and the pace of this one was in stark contrast to the intensity of the previous one, making it look very uncomfortable. For a while, the shouts and boos of the match-fixing resounded throughout the audience again,
In the midst of this noise, Wendy said calmly, "This is the tactic of the Tyrone team, after all, they have already won one game, as long as they beat the Gude team at the bottom of the group in the third round, they can qualify, there is no need to fight with the Gafreřak team." ”
"I'm afraid there is also the manipulation of the bookmaker, the Tyrone team was thinking about giving up this game, but they didn't think about holding on for a few minutes before losing, as long as the bookmaker promised a little benefit, they were naturally killed in seconds. Leah pouted angrily, clearly disdainful of the Gafreřak family.
Phyllis was dismissive of Kevin's cleverness, "Hmph, if you don't study all day long, you specialize in this crooked way, no wonder even Aceba ignores you." ”
Kevin spread his hands helplessly, and turned his head to see Darko giving him a thumbs up with a look of adoration.
The second match of the second round of Group B was a battle between Diaz and Goode. No. 7-ranked Diaz lost to Tyrone in the first round, while No. 16-ranked Gude won a match-fixing match against Gafreshak, which made the format of Group B confusing. Since Gafreřák will inevitably win the final game against Diaz, it is very likely that Diaz will lose in the third round, and as long as Gude wins one more game, they will be the weakest in the group.
Seemingly tempted by such a bright prospect, Goode's entire team was full of morale and waiting to meet the Diaz team. In the process of arming the orc warriors, although they did not make some dangerous moves like the Cynthia team, they also obviously deviated from the normal steps, and it seemed that they had some ideas of their own.
The game soon started in a lively atmosphere, and sure enough, it did not disappoint the crowd, as the Diaz team and the Gude team did not hide their clumsiness, and a fierce battle began as soon as they came up, which was matched by a wave of noise from the stands. The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. In the seats of the Dacko team and other teams, the strategy of both teams in this game was discussed.
"It's clear that Team Goode used the Savage Rip Glyph, which not only acted on attack skills, but also in turn stimulated the orc's own muscle tissue, triggering its potential. ”
"This glyph has been around for a long time, but it is not suitable for permanent use because it can cause muscle tissue strain. It looks like the Goode team wants to give it a go, after all, as long as this victory is made, it is very likely to qualify. ”
"I'm curious to see how the Diaz team copes, but judging from the last game, this Diaz team is not very good. ”
While everyone was talking, the game was developing at an unimaginable speed. Although the strength of the orc warriors of the Gude team has increased a lot, it has no great effect on the orc warriors of the Diaz team, but it only stirs up pieces of magical brilliance, which shows that its defense is in place. And the counterattack of the orc warriors of the Diaz team was not weak at all, and the Gude team focused all their weapons on attack power in order to achieve a quick victory, resulting in insufficient defense, and they were beaten and wounded in a few minutes. Small advantages gradually accumulate, and the center of gravity in the back is more and more skewed to one side. By the 9th minute, the orc warriors of the Goode team had fallen to the ground, leaving only the limbs and the muscles of the whole body twitching, which was the effect of the savage tearing glyph so that the muscles were still excited, but the body organs were too injured to bear.
As an inscriptionist, Darko also learned a lot from it, "In such a ring match, the first thing to do is to keep the platform that carries attack and defense alive in order to have a higher output, so this kind of glyph of savage tearing is not suitable, even if you are desperate, you should use the power of all attack and defense." ”
Phyllis was lamenting the bad luck of her team, "I thought the Diaz team was weak, but I didn't expect the Gude team to be weaker." Why are such weak teams all in other groups, and none of our opponents are worry-free. ”
Wendy shook her head, "In the first round, Team Diaz lost to Team Tyrone, which made people think that Team Diaz only focused on attack and not defense, so they were at the top of the qualifying round, but they lost in the ring. But it seems that their defense is actually very good, so it can only show that they lost to the Tyrone team not because they were weak, but because the Tyrone team was strong. ”
"Hmph, as a strong team but without the demeanor of a strong team, I just give up the game against the Gafreshak team, so I don't think I'm optimistic about them!" Leah was very disdainful of the Tyrone team's approach, and Otto nodded in agreement.
Darko wanted to say something, but felt a tightness in his wrist and was dragged away by Phyllis. Darko looked around, only to realize that it was lunch break, and all kinds of mobile stalls selling snacks had appeared in the aisles of the Colosseum. So the two walked around the stalls and bought a lot of food.
The lunch break passed quickly, and then it was Group C to play. But the situation in Group C is also like this lazy time in the afternoon, which does not lift the spirit in the slightest. Due to the withdrawal of the Tucson team, there is only one game in Group C in each round, and one team will have a bye, and in the second round, it is the turn of the third-ranked Dehringer team against the Tucson team, so the Dehringer team wins without a fight.
What needs to be played in Group C is a match between Phoenix, which is ranked 6th, and Muntz, who is ranked 14th. Phoenix played the abstained Tucson in the first round, so this was their first performance in the ring. But the Phoenix team didn't feel uncomfortable because of this, and they quickly got into the groove, especially the young boy Katchi, who was particularly eye-catching, and the glyph was copied successfully at one time, without being disturbed by the audience at the opening stage. Just from the light of the self-examination of the glyph, you can tell that it is a fine product. Egida also behaved remarkably, the process of enchantment was very skillful, and it seemed that it had been trained a lot, far from being as unbearable as Phyllis said.
Although the Muntz team also played to the best of their ability, their level was limited, and they were only armed according to the conventional routine, without any targeted arrangement. The game ended quickly and without any suspense, as Phoenix beat the Muntz team at the 15-minute mark. When the winners and losers of these two teams are decided, the situation in Group C will be clear. The Munts lost both games and were eliminated early, while the Deringer and Phoenix teams teamed up to qualify. In the third round, the two teams will only play to separate the first and second teams in the group, and they will qualify as the first team in the group, and they will meet the second team in Group B in the knockout stage, and the team that will qualify first in Group A in the second group.
After the Group C match, Kevin squinted his eyes slightly and muttered, "Here we go." ”
Group D matches have already begun, with the first match of the second round between Kostner and Nairobi, and the second round between Kostner and Merkelt. With Darko leaving the Colosseum in a hurry to save Assiba in the last game and failing to see Nairobi and Merkelt in the last game, it's also an opportunity to get to know the rest of the group. All six members of the Darko team were silent, just staring in the direction of the Nairobi team.
When the game started, the six members of the Nairobi team were all very calm and went about their work, occasionally interacting with each other. Obviously, the Nairobi team did not expect much from their own victory, because they had already lost one, and even if they could win this one with a suicide attack, they would lose the next game against the Dakko team. So instead of appointing meso, they just want to bring out the best skills and let the orc warriors last a little longer in the ring.
Looking at the Kostner team, they have also not made any changes, they are still the same as they are adapting to all changes, and of course, they can only do so calmly if they have absolute strength. The amazing thing is still the precision of Android's operation and the control of time, and the series of movements he casts for each part of the gloves is exactly the same as in the first round, and the same movements seem to be the same for even a second. It's as if his movements in the first round were recorded in a magical video, and now they're being released again. In the end, it was also a second before the chief referee announced that the time was up, and all the work was finished, to the amazement of those who watched the first round.
After the start of the ring match, the performance of the orc warriors of the Nairobi team was not unexpected, focusing on defense and supplemented by attack, which was completely a performance of wanting to hold on for a longer time and have more face. But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and the orc warriors of the Nairobi team only lasted 11 minutes before they were knocked to the ground, and at the same time, half of the front teeth of the orc warriors fell to the ground.
No one in the Darko team paid attention to the miserable situation of the Nairobi team, because the next game was their turn, it was a game that would decide their fate, and a loss would be an elimination, and a win would save a glimmer of hope.
