"Ye Feng, it's time to go."

Ye Feng stopped to accept the move, turned his head and smiled at Chen Dong, and said confidently: "Okay, I'm ready." ”

Preparing for the competition, Ye Feng couldn't relax his practice, Ye Feng got up early and practiced his boxing techniques to adjust his spirit to the best state.

After breakfast, Ye Feng and Chen Dong got into the car of Cai Lifo's disciples who came to greet them, and went to the secret place where the Guwu Conference was held.

"This is the information of the contestants in this ancient martial arts conference, you can take a look."

Chen Dong handed him a directory that he had collected through secret means.

The directory records the basic information of the contestants, such as their names, ages, origins, genres, the types of martial arts they are proficient in, their surnames, strengths and weaknesses, and even the important combat experiences of their lives. In order to avoid their enemies, many warriors do not disclose their true identities. Many of the portraits of the warriors on the list are vacant, and the profiles of some warriors are even mostly question marks.

"Huh? Sixty players, all of them are dark warriors. The top seed player Hua Manyue was in the late stage of dark energy cultivation three years ago? Rub, isn't it possible to step into the level of transformation with one foot now・・・・・・" Ye Feng looked at the introduction of the participating martial artists on the list, and was secretly surprised.

Ye Feng's normal strength was just the cultivation of the early stage of dark energy, even if he used the "physique enhancement", it was only improved to the late stage of dark energy. If the opponent is a martial artist who is at the peak of dark strength or even a half-step transformation strength, Ye Feng will be at a significant disadvantage physically.

In addition, Ye Feng's combat experience may be the least among all the contestants・・・・・ but Ye Feng has mental power, he can see through the opponent's false moves and record and analyze the opponent's moves, so if he can't do it, he can briefly explode into the small universe and use the extreme physique enhancement to save his life.

In the end, you have to fight to know. For Ye Feng, the championship is not important, the important thing is to be able to gain a lot of combat experience and copy the tricks of other martial artists is the biggest gain.

"Master, uncles, uncles, brothers, brothers, and brothers, when you arrive at the venue, you must remember to call me Murong Feng, don't call me by my real name." Ye Feng said solemnly to everyone in the car.

"You know, you've said it several times." Everyone laughed.

Chen Dong glanced at Ye Feng with a strange expression, and wondered: "Ye Feng, even if you want to be incognito, you don't need to carry an earthen pot on your head, don't you have a better hood?" ”

At this moment, Ye Feng's head was covered with a yellow and clear jar-like hood, and only three holes were opened in the position of his eyes and mouth, looking like a daze expression.

Ye Feng didn't care, and said with a grin: "Master, you don't understand, this earthen can hood can have a lot of origins." ”

When Ye Feng chose a mask to hide his appearance, he remembered a famous online side-scrolling fighting game he played back then, so he made an earthen pot helmet out of ironwood. Not to mention, it really has a bit of a pretending to be thirteen on it, and it is even more perfect with a red rose in its mouth.

After shuttling through the streets for half an hour, the car stopped in front of the Haicheng Institute of High Energy Physics.

"Huh? Master, why did we come to this place? Could it be that the Guwu Conference was held in it? Ye Feng looked at the gate of the research institute and was stunned.

Chen Dong smiled but said nothing. At this time, a guard guarding the door trotted over, saluted the military, and said solemnly: "Hello, please show the pass." ”

Chen Dong handed out a red magnetic card.

When the guard saw the magnetic card, his eyes lit up, and he said Wait a minute, picked up the instrument on his waist and read it on the magnetic card for a few seconds, and looked at the information displayed on the instrument screen, the guard nodded to Ye Feng and the others, opened the electronic fence and said: "After entering, please follow the guidance of the staff and street signs to the B-15 building." ”

Chen Dong thanked him. Two cars drove into the institute.

The institute is quiet, the roads are wide, clean and tidy. At this time, guards were stationed at each fork in the road, and signs with arrows were erected along the roadside to show Ye Feng and others the way. Under the guidance of the staff, the car was parked in the parking lot at the entrance of the building.

Before entering the gate, Ye Feng and his party were inspected again, this time they checked the luggage carried by everyone and the whole body security check. Then, the guards even asked everyone to enter fingerprints into a device before they could enter the building.

Then, under the leadership of the staff, Ye Feng and others took the elevator to the second basement floor of the building. After turning several times through the complex corridors, you came to a thick, tall metal door with five heavily armed guards armed with assault rifles.

Here, Ye Feng and the others were interrogated for the third time, and their fingerprints were verified one by one, and the metal door was opened. After entering, Ye Feng found that behind the gate was a huge elevator.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to call it a lift platform, which is ten meters long and wide enough to fit a tank.

The elevator began to descend rapidly.

And it's a bottomless descent.

Ye Feng felt that it had dropped to a depth of hundreds of meters, and the elevator stopped. When I went out, I saw an underground tunnel with no end in sight, and a monorail parked in front of me.

In terms of staff leadership, Ye Feng and others got on the tram and took the tram to start a long and tortuous shuttle in the underground tunnel.

"・・・・・・Master, what the hell is this place?" Ye Feng finally couldn't help but ask out loud.

First to the Institute, then to the Institute's eerie underground passages, and then, in its current condition, it seems that the destination is deeper underground.

There were such huge and complex underground fortifications hidden under Haicheng City・・・・・・ Ye Feng felt that there was a reason for magnifying here.

"Hehe, I was more surprised than you when I first came here." Chen Dong showed a nostalgic look and said with a smile: "Below is a facility secretly built by the state to deal with huge disasters such as nuclear bomb attacks or meteorite impacts, and at the bottom is a huge base that is said to be able to accommodate 100,000 people, and it is also the place where the ancient martial arts conference is held. ”

Nuclear protection base?

Ye Feng opened his mouth wide, grandma's, the country is really generous. Isn't it enough to find a gymnasium or something, so you can use it to "kill chickens".

"It sounds outrageous, but Ye Feng thinks about it, in addition to the players who participated in the Ancient Martial Arts Conference, there were also Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world who came to observe and a large number of real power, with more than 10,000 people. In order to ensure security and do a good job of secrecy, the state has used this base. Chen Dong explained.

At this time, the guide who didn't talk much also turned his head and smiled: "This old gentleman is right. But in fact, there is another reason, that is, the top management feels that this base is idle, and it is better to play a role. Since the use of underground bases to host competitions in various places, the safety factor and confidentiality factor of the competition have been greatly improved. ”

Wouldn't it be unwise to open such an important base to the outside world, and what if foreign spies got in?

Faced with Ye Feng's question, the staff smiled and did not answer, but said that this problem would be handled by professionals.

After chatting for a few minutes, the tram reached the end point, an empty and spacious cave, and there were two passages on the left and right that were the same as when Ye Feng and the others came.

The walls of the cave are reinforced with reinforced concrete, and in the center is a platform for incoming trams to pick up and drop off, which leads to a thick metal gate.

There are still many soldiers with guns at the door and on the platform, and those who pass through the gate have to go through fingerprint verification checkpoints.

Ye Feng looked around curiously, and followed Chen Dong and the others into the gate.

Behind the door, a huge passage ten meters high, fifteen meters wide, and fifty meters long was passed through this passage, and the scene in front of me suddenly lit up.

The underground space is so huge that it is beyond imagination, and the magnificent momentum is blowing in the face.

What appeared in front of Ye Feng was a circular space with a diameter of more than one thousand meters, and the height was more than one hundred meters, and it was extremely empty. The ground floor is dotted with integrated buildings, with a wide square like a football field in the center, surrounded by circles of square-like buildings and circular radiating passages.

At the top of the giant cave, there are more than a dozen giant lamps in the shape of gemstones, several meters wide, emitting bright but not dazzling phosphorescence, which is a rare lighting lamp made of luminous technology. On the ground, it is assumed that many of the same type of electric lights will illuminate the entire cavern as if it were daylight, like a dungeon.

At this moment, the entrances to the underground base on all sides are constantly blended in, and the empty underground space recalls the sound of lively conversation. The liveliness of the Ancient Martial Arts Conference far exceeded Ye Feng's expectations.

That's ・・・・・・ 20,000 or 30,000 people, right? After Ye Feng estimated the number of people in the underground space, he was secretly frightened.

In addition to the crowds of people who came to compete and watch the games, there were also a large number of guards in the base, and almost every fork in the road and passage door had soldiers with loaded guns. Ye Feng could see that these guards were all real soldiers and had been strictly trained.

Each group of guests entering has a guide who will lead the way. Under the guidance of the guide, Ye Feng and the others walked through the complex passage and came to a small square building.

"Alright, Dear Player 45, this is the rest room for you and your group of friends and family. If you have any questions, you can call the service ring or ask any of the staff. The official start time of the game is 10:30 a.m., your location is 19 in Zone B, please arrive 10 minutes early. Now, you can take a break and take your leave. The guide politely said and left.

The square building is not big, there is only one single room on the first floor, which can accommodate two people, and there are a total of six floors up and down. Just enough for Ye Feng and his group of relatives and friends to live.

The so-called family and friend group means that the contestants can bring ten escorts for free. Companions can be at the same door, or they can be relatives or friends, but each person will need to enter their fingerprints as a key to get around the base. The 10 people, together with the contestants, will be provided with free food and accommodation at the base during the competition.

Those who come to watch the game and participate in gambling can only honestly spend money to buy tickets and spend a lot of money. The largest organizer ZF has already set up a variety of consumption places in the base, high-end restaurants, high-end entertainment venues, luxury consumption clubs, antique and rare goods exchanges, and even casinos・・・・・・ but these are all small profits, and the real highlight is the gambling activities of the ancient martial arts conference.

These magnates came here in search of visual stimulation, witnessing the fierce battles between ancient warriors, and enjoying the heartbeat of gambling - in a sense, the ancient martial arts conference was not only a selection competition, but also a "ring show" for martial artists.

After resting for a while, Ye Feng set off with Chen Dong and the others, and followed the instructions on the wall of the passage to the competition venue.

Located in the central square of the underground base, it is a temporary playing field, with sixteen chessboard rings in the middle, surrounded by a stepped spectator platform.

As soon as Ye Feng entered the venue, he was slightly shocked by the warm atmosphere that came to his face.

Twenty minutes before the start, the audience was already full, crowded and bustling, with at least 10,000 people.

Dozens of bright lights hit the ring, illuminating the arena as bright as noon. Behind the auditorium, a huge LCD screen was erected to show the situation in each ring. In the corridor of the venue, in front of and behind the auditorium, there is a soldier with a gun every ten meters, and his vigilant eyes are always patrolling.

In the center of the stadium gate, there is a rectangular platform that rises a little above the ring, and several rows of expensive tables and chairs are placed, which seem to be the positions of important people. There were men and women, young people in their early twenties, and old men with gray hair, all of whom looked indifferent, or hugged their chests, or closed their eyes to recuperate, or leisurely drinking tea, and the atmosphere was a little out of place with the surrounding bustle and noise.
