Next, the dynasty did nothing except go back to the Shiranui Dojo twice, neither took the initiative to go out to investigate anything, nor did he go to the villa in Shinjuku to observe the gods or visit the two youkai who were imprisoned there.

Of course, there is no shortage of reports with Yuzi. After all, with such a living earth encyclopedia, the dynasty would not let go of the opportunity to obtain knowledge for free from her.

Just like that, before I knew it, time came in a blink of an eye, Friday, November 20th. That is, the day before the start of the Iron Fist Tournament.

After his morning class, he boarded the train to Nagano and rushed to Nagano Prefecture.

Nagano, located in the middle of Japan's main island of Honshu, between Kansai and Kanto, is one of the eight inland prefectures in Japan and the fourth largest prefecture in Japan by the central highlands, bordered by Gunma to the east, Gifu Prefecture to the west, Yamanashi Prefecture and Shizuoka Prefecture to the south, and Niigata Prefecture and Toyama Prefecture to the north.

Heihachi Mishima chose to hold the Iron Fist Tournament here, probably because he wanted to climb to the top.

After all, Nagano is a prefecture on the central highlands with the 'roof of Japan', and Matsumoto City is the center of its center.

It is one of the leading tourist prefectures in Japan, with abundant internal resources, many mountain lakes and rivers, and the largest rainbow trout breeding in Japan, and many sightseeing resources.

……

It didn't take long, just over an hour, and the dynasty arrived in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture.

Similar to Matsuyama City, which was originally set foot in search of youkai, Matsumoto City is also a city rich in the ancient style of the Ehu period, with a beautiful and tranquil interior environment, and the remnants of the Ehu era and Yamamaru Castle can be seen everywhere, and the surrounding rivers are murmuring, making people feel a sense of leisure, so worthy of the title of Nagano Prefecture's 'Japan Switzerland'.

However, it is a pity that Matsumoto City is not a famous hot spring town, and even if there are well-known hot spring resources in and around the city, it is either inconvenient or undeveloped, or it is far away from the city, and if it is not a vacation or leisure, it is really worth the loss to live there, so although there are homestays in the city, there are no hot springs to enjoy in the lodging hall.

Fortunately, Wang Chao didn't pick on this, not to mention that the hotel where the players lived had been designated by the organizer, so it didn't take long for Wang Chao to come to the hotel designated by the organizer, take out his identity certificate, and get his room key from the front desk.

"Oh, by the way, have the other contestants arrived?" Wang Chao picked up the key, and asked the girl at the front desk as if he had just remembered something.

"It's already here." The girl at the front desk replied.

"All?"

"Yes."

"Can you tell me their room number?"

"This ......" The girl at the front desk didn't answer, looking embarrassed.

"Forget it, when I didn't ask." Wang Chao waved his hand and gave up his plan to ask the player to stay in the room from the girl at the front desk.

"I'm sorry I couldn't help you." The girl at the front desk breathed a sigh of relief and quickly apologized.

Wang Chao waved his hand again and went to his room according to the previous instructions of the girl at the front desk.

On the sixth floor, room 612.

The dynasty entered with his card and rested in the room.

……

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Wang Chao came to the small banquet hall on the third floor of the hotel.

There is no other reason to come here, just to get an invitation, to participate in the pre-fight banquet and opponent lottery of the Iron Fist Tournament, so that you can determine who your opponent will be tomorrow.

So as soon as he entered, the dynasty saw a lot of acquaintances.

Such as the street fighter sumo Honda who has fought before. Such as Nina, who has acted together. If you have had a short exchange, you can be considered a friend's Zafina. and Zacks and others who had a round side.

They each stayed aside, silently drinking wine or eating the food served at the table.

Wang Chao nodded slightly at several of them, took a glass of champagne from the tray in the hand of the waiter next to him, and walked straight towards Zafina among them.

Although the other people are also familiar, the relationship is obviously not to the point where he takes the initiative to say hello, not to mention, Zax among them is still the target he wants to deal with, and the dynasty does not dare to show too closeness, so as not to be seen by the dark spies around who don't know whether there is a presence or not, and report it to the people behind.

"See you again." Wang Chao raised his glass to Zafina and greeted.

At this time, she was still dressed in the traditional style. The maroon Southeast Asian-style side slit cloth skirt, the yellow shiny fabric made of the backless and open-chested waistless coat, the arms are covered with tasseled arm sleeves of the same color, and the black hair is tied high, showing a charming and charming appearance.

"yes, I didn't expect to see you here." Zafina raised her glass in response, took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and whispered in a slightly embarrassed voice.

"Me too." Wang Dynasty laughed. Then he paused, and then asked, "What are you competing for this time?" Bonus? Or have you discovered the so-called magic star again? ”

"It's a demon star." Zafina didn't hide it, and admitted it very simply.

"Demon Star? Who? Wang Chao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

Last time it was Vega, this time is Heihachi Mishima?

No wonder he thinks so. After all, although he had played the game of Iron Fist in his previous life, he was not very familiar with his plot, only knowing the existence of the Mishima family, and the fact that the people of the Mishima family seemed to be turning into monsters, as for more situations, the dynasty was not very good, almost the same as ignorance, otherwise she would not have known her identity and purpose in the presence of Nina Williams.

"It's not decided yet. But one thing is for sure, he is in the middle of the players. Zafina said.

“…… How do you know he's among us. Wang Chao was stunned and couldn't help asking.

"Feeling." Zafina turned her head to look at him and replied with a very unique answer.

The dynasty was once again silent, speechless.

No way, who calls people spiritual cultivators, special people? Even if the answer was in Xuanqi, the dynasty had to come up with some thoughts to respond.

As for the reason? Just because he is the same, occasionally there will be some inexplicable thoughts and feelings similar to whims. So I have a deep understanding.

After waiting for a long time, the staff of the competition appeared, and after a few random sentences, they handed the microphone to the owner of the room, Heihachi Mishima, the organizer of the competition.

Mishima Heihachi's age looks very big, he is forty or fifty years old just by visual inspection, but his body shape and physique are very unusual, and he does not look weak at all as ordinary people of this age, and his breath is very strong. Wearing a hand-cut black suit, the muscles under the suit are bulging, and a proper suit is propped up and neat.

Half-bald, with hair on both sides supporting back, it looks like the outside of an ancient winged helmet, giving people a very strange feeling. The face is cold and profound, his eyes are like knives, and the corners of his mouth are drooping up and down, which is very difficult to get along with, and he looks like a stubborn old man.

The aura is very large, and when he stops there, he exudes a strong sense of presence, making the people around him involuntarily focus their eyes on him.

"Ahem." Then the next moment, I listened to Heihachi Mishima, "I'm glad that you were able to come to today's dinner......"

Heihachi Mishima said "let's go" for a while, showing enough attention to everyone, and then stepped aside and handed the host back to the staff in the field.

"Then let's stop wasting time and start grouping now."

As he spoke, as soon as the picture on the large screen behind the staff changed, the avatars of all the people present and an approximate pyramid-shaped game progress chart appeared.

"Wait a minute, I will draw everyone's order and opponents through the computer, and the full name is no one to intervene to ensure notarization."

"Everyone, please be careful."

"Let's go!"

Then the picture on the screen changed, and everyone's avatars changed on the screen at a rapid speed......

It didn't take long for the host to shout, "Stop!" ”

Suddenly, the avatar in the screen rotated rapidly, showing a photo of a person. - Paul the Sweeper. The division is zoomed out and falls to the leftmost position of the smallest row of the process graph.

Then the screening continued, and everyone's avatars turned their heads again rapidly.

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

"Stop!"

It didn't take long for all the players to be ranked.

For example, Paul was the first one. The opponent was the second Zax to be drawn. The third is the masked male who Mishima Heihachi stuffed in with the organizer's fist, and the opponent is sumo Honda. The fourth is Nina, the opponent Yoshiki Ohno. The fifth is Wang Jinglei, and the opponent is the second male in the mask. The sixth is Li Chaowolf, and the opponent is the dynasty. The seventh is Zafina, and the opponent is Heihachi Mishima.

On the surface, it seems to be so, very fair, very fair, but on closer inspection, it is completely wrong.

If it's really fair, how could the four of Mishima Heihachi and his party not meet together? Is it really that coincidental?

Of course, that possibility is not ruled out, but for some reason, the dynasty always feels that this is not the case.

"Maybe I'm too careful, right?" Afterwards, Wang Chao couldn't help but shake his head imperceptibly, and said with a dark smile.

And even if that's the case, what can you do? Debunking Heihachi Mishima? Or continue to pretend to be dumb and live, just understand it in your heart.

In this way, the dynasty no longer paid attention to these, and instead observed the three mission objectives of Zax, Wang Jinglei, and Li Chaowolf.

It's just a pity that he didn't observe for long, and soon, Mishima Heihachi didn't know if he was impatient to get together with everyone or what, and after the lottery was over, he left the banquet hall with Li Chaowolf, the masked man and the bodyguard, and disappeared from the dynasty's sight.

And then there's Nina Williams. Zax. Wang Jinglei. Let the dynasty faintly think.

"Alright, I should go too, what room are you in?" Then the dynasty retracted his gaze and turned to look at Zafina beside him and asked. (To be continued.) )
