Chapter 37: Future Scholars (23)
One hundred and fifty-three galaxies sent players to participate in this year's Major League Junior Mecha Competition.
There are more than 200 galaxies in the big league, but the entry conditions for the mecha competition are very high, not every galaxy will have qualified players to participate in every session, and this time there are 153 galaxies participating in the competition!
Of course, the Kinser Galaxy will not host such a large-scale event for nothing, and they will have priority in controlling the live coverage of the competition. The entertainment and media industry of the Kinser galaxy is as excited as if it is a chicken, and it has been doing various preliminary publicity reports months in advance, from the venue and session arrangement, the latest intelligent brain review system, the authority and prestige of the real referee, the grievances between the participating teams of each galaxy, and the list of team members...... To the height, weight, strengths, appearance, family history, scandals, and property of the players...... As long as it can be used for hype, none of it will be let go by them.
Victor of the Kra Galaxy, Luna of the Guma Galaxy, and Owen of the Vess Galaxy are far ahead of the other players in all indicators in the selection test, and they are the favorites to win the championship in this competition, and they are also the people who have been hyped and reported the most.
And Noah's appearance in this competition as a dark horse also provided a lot of talking points for the media in the Kinser system.
Born as an orphan, with no backstage and no background, he has become one of the first-rate schools in the Vis system with his own efforts, and now he is making a name for himself in the mecha competition!
For a while, Noah almost became synonymous with hard work. Even the school drama "The Sword of Minaya" that he performed at the Visshield Military Academy before became popular, and was found by a reporter from unknown company and placed in the competition publicity area of the Star Network, and the ratings were not low.
======
Owen sat in the stands with a slight smile on his face, his expression flawlessly perfect, and without any embellishment, he could captivate a large number of men and women who were eagerly following the game.
In fact, when Owen was not playing in the past two days, he sat in the stands with this expression, and was released by the media of the Kinser galaxy with a few photos with good angles, which immediately sparked popularity and heated discussions, and was awarded a series of titles such as the most handsome player, the best temperament player, and the most charismatic player in this competition.
Owen ΜSagan has been accustomed to being the center of attention since he was a child, and his origin, appearance, and ability are all the best, and he deserves to be admired and envied by the public.
It's a really good feeling to be sought after and adored, and Owen has always enjoyed it.
But this time, his assistant Mike knew that Owen was not happy about it, and he was not in a good mood.
Mike came from a small family that had been attached to the Sagan family for generations, and due to the family's tradition and strength and many other reasons, he had followed Owen since he was a child, and if nothing else, he would continue to follow him in the future, and becoming the right-hand man of the Sagan family would be the whole content of his life.
Therefore, Mike knows Owen very well, and not only will he not be in a good mood behind such a light smile, but he may not be in trouble.
The Mecha Tournament adopts the state-of-the-art Nuda competition system, rather than a simple points round-robin or knockout round, and the arrangement of each game is arranged in real time according to the results of all previous matches through precise evaluation and calculation, ensuring the efficiency of the game and fairness to each player to the greatest extent.
After sitting a little longer, Owen received a notification from the central brain of the tournament for the next event - against Victor in the Kra system.
By now, the tournament has entered the crucial final stage, and those who are not strong enough have been eliminated, and now every matchup is a battle between real heavyweights.
The audience's emotions became more and more high-pitched, and they all began to cheer and cheer after seeing the announced candidates.
Owen stood up to go to the prep area to prepare.
Suddenly, a Kinser system arena attendant came over and whispered something to him.
Owen frowned, "Let that stupid woman go back and forth from where, I don't have time to deal with her now!" β
The waiter whispered a few more words before Owen waved his hand impatiently, "Then you hurry up and bring her over, I'm going to have a game soon." β
After a while, the man came to Owen with a woman who was so tightly covered from head to toe that he couldn't tell what she looked like.
It's just that Mike still recognizes this woman as Miss Maggie at a glance.
Owen sat down and didn't get up, but said to her impatiently, "Speak quickly!" β
Miss Maggie followed the example of the service staff just now, bent down, and whispered to Owen, Owen's face became worse and worse, and finally scolded in a low voice, "That's because you are stupid, don't push on me!" β
Miss Maggie's body trembled, her hand hanging at her side clenched into a fist, and her voice rose uncontrollably, "If it weren't for your 'friendship', how could I have done those things!! You deliberately hurt me! I can't stay in the Vis system anymore! β
Owen frowned and pressed her shoulder, muffling her voice, and after a few more whispered exchanges, Miss Maggie turned away.
Mike stared intently at her back, feeling as if he had just heard Project XXX, the XX Galaxy and the Vess System, the Level 1 encryption plan, decryption, warning, reminder...... waited for sensitive words, and it wasn't until Owen called for him to hurry up and prepare for the game that a stirring reaction occurred.
Owen's participation in this tournament is a secret mission from the Vis Military Department, and he is not allowed to win if he loses, and this match with Victor of the Kra system is the one he planned to lose.
Major-General Nikolai sat very low-key in the high-ranking VIP stands, dressed in civilian clothes, and as the head of this plan, he personally followed the whole process very responsibly.
Seeing that the mecha piloted by Owen and Victor in the arena were at an astonishing speed, the two mecha came and went suddenly, Owen's silver-blue cool mecha was like a silver-blue light, and Victor's black heavy mecha was like a flickering black shadow, Major General Nikolai frowned without a trace - Owen was too strong, even if he lost in the end, it would look very stiff.
The screen of the personal terminal flickered, and Major General Nikolai turned on the headset with the shielding function on, and on the other side was his brother Arthur, whose voice was a little deep, and asked, "Nick, what's going on with Owen?" He didn't go as planned! β
Major General Nikolai looked up at Mike, who was hurrying around the rows of seats in the stands and trotting towards him, and calmly replied, "I don't know, but there should be an answer soon." β
======
Sitting not far away, Zhou Yin, who also belonged to the high-level VIP area in the stands, also heard His Excellency Louis beside him saying, "Noah, your teammates have a problem. β
"How?"
Lord Louis, "Owen's kid is not normal, Victor's strength is not as good as him, he doesn't have to fight so aggressively, he should have won easily a few rounds ago, but he made low-level mistakes in a row, what is this trying to do?" β
Zhou Yin lowered his head and crackled on his terminal for a while, and then raised his head, "It is estimated that he wants to indirectly increase the difficulty of my game, Victor and I both competed with Luna in the Guma Galaxy yesterday, one win and one loss, it stands to reason that I can directly skip the battle with Victor, but Owen's results in the tournament have always been very good......" lowered his head and tapped a few more times on the terminal, then raised his head and said, "My calculation shows that as long as Victor and his match last for five minutes and twenty-eight seconds, The Nuda format will determine that I need to play against Victor. β
His Excellency Louis patted him dotingly, "It's hard work, and you have to have more than one game, how are you now?" β
Zhou Yin leaned back and replied honestly, "I'm tired!" Almost all of these players are top-notch people from military academies in various galaxies, and they have received many years of formal training in terms of physical strength and mental strength, which I can't compare to them! Rubbing his forehead, "And I'm still worried about Gu Li and Xiaobai, now that the deadline given by the hospital for them to hold on to is getting closer and closer, their bodies will get weaker and weaker, I ...... I ......" I couldn't go on, just clenched my fists to resist the bursts of distress and worry.
The competition has strict restrictions on the use of potions or instruments to restore the body, and Lord Louis does not dare to give him medicine casually, so he can only help him decompress by gently pinching the back of his arm and shoulder.
Sure enough, as Zhou Yin estimated, after Owen held on for twenty-five minutes to win the 'hard' victory, the central brain of the tournament released the announcement of the next game - Noah of the Vis system vs. Victor of the Kra system.
Whether it's paying a lot of money to watch the game or watching it live through the guΓ² star network, the audience who is following the game is excited!
The contestants who persevered to the end of this competition were of equal strength and fought very fiercely, so they were very entertaining. In particular, Noah in the Vis system has a very novel way of fighting, which is always refreshing, and often goes beyond the traditional mode to defeat the enemy with unbelievable tactics, which makes everyone look forward to every time he plays.
Zhou Yin has participated in three competitions in a row, and today he has already competed twice, and the continuous high-intensity control of the mecha made him obviously feel the overdraft of his physical and mental strength.
It's okay to say, grit your teeth and get a good night's sleep, and you can recover after you go back; Mental overdraft is very painful.
In the past, when he was training at the military academy, his mental strength was overdrawn and Zhou Yin could rely on medicine to help recover, but now he can't, unlike other players who have received long-term formal training in this area, and his tolerance is much stronger, Zhou Yin only feels a splitting headache at this time, and his brain is like a needle pricked.
Gritted his teeth and stood up, thinking to himself for Xiaobai and Gu Li! No matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to hold on!
His Excellency Louis looked at his pale face and clenched fists to know what was going on, his eyes flashed with worry, and he also stood up, "How are you?" β
Zhou Yin reluctantly smiled, "I can still hold on." β
His Excellency Louis suddenly stood up high, took him into his arms, hugged him tightly, as if he wanted to transfer his strength to Zhou Yin through this action, bowed his head and said in Zhou Yin's ear, "Baby, I know you're having a hard time now, don't be afraid, be strong." β
Zhou Yin pouted, "Don't treat me as a child, I'm not afraid, now except for Xiaobai and Gu Li's illness, there is nothing to make me afraid!" β
As he said that, he raised his hand in response to the hug and sighed softly, "Don't always be so nice to me." β
It felt very good to be gently cared for, so good that he was a little weak-hearted.
Although Zhou Yin is just a substitute and will leave this world after Noah's recovery, this life is what he really feels: he has no reservations about Xiaobai and Gu Li, and is willing to dedicate a qiΔ love; Grateful and dependent on His Excellency Louis, and even somewhat adored............ Zhou Yin paused when he thought of this, and he didn't know how to describe his feelings for His Excellency Louis, which should be called good feelings now, and maybe it could be called love after a while.
In a certain way, this is also his life!
Zhou Yin thought that when he left, he would be very reluctant, reluctant to give up on Gully and Xiaobai, reluctant to His Excellency Louis, and even reluctant to give up Keith and his mentor, Ms. Stone.
Peter, a close confidant of His Excellency Louis, looked at Zhou Yin's back and wondered, "My lord, why didn't you tell Young Master Noah that his two children are receiving interferon treatment, and they will be fine soon, don't worry too much." β
Lord Louis shook his head, "Wait a minute, the two little devils are the driving force for Noah's competition, and suddenly tell him that the two little devils are okay, and if he loses motivation, he may not be able to give full play to his potential." β
Peter hesitated, "But Master Noah is more worried about the child than the competition is so hard, you-" Do you want to say that you are willing?
Lord Louis pinched his eyebrows, "Don't ask, Peter, I'm almost distressed!" β
But there is no way, you have to endure it even if you are distressed, the level of mecha warriors is difficult to greatly improve by training alone, and many mecha warriors have been upgraded on the battlefield in the past - when facing great pressure, their potential will be completely stimulated. The sense of urgency on the field of play is on par with that on the battlefield, and everyone who gives it their all to the end can benefit immensely.
Of course, he is very reluctant to bear the hardship of baby Noah, but no matter how distressed he is, he has to endure it, after all, Noah has chosen to board the mecha, so in the future, no matter whether he takes this as his main business or not, he will be inextricably linked with the mecha, and if he does not work hard to enhance his strength, he will give the enemy a huge opportunity! The Kanlabaha people are very doting on their children, but they understand the importance of raising a strong man.
