Chapter 71: The Unexpected (2)
Hum, the man's words immediately caused a boo.
Bi Lingxiao was very shocked, he didn't expect that there were only twenty-eight people who passed through this melee! Even if the rules of the melee this time were a bit strange, it wouldn't be that there were only so few people left? After all, even if he couldn't deal with so many high-level creatures and other opponents, he should at least be able to hide! What's more, there were more than a dozen demon players with the protection of the master that he detected, and there would only be more and no less in the heavenly realm and the human realm, how could it be that there were only about twenty people left in the end, could it be that they broke out into frequent battles with each other? There seems to be only one explanation. Moreover, the enchantment was laid during the battle, because at least in the demon realm area, they did not sense the big battle.
"If you put Magatama into this groove to stimulate the internal force, the slate will show the number of scenes. The man obviously didn't mean to explain, and directly explained the method of drawing lots. After another exchange of words on the field, they stepped forward one after another to start the draw. Bi Lingxiao and the others didn't go over until the end. Purple Pine Forest, Mochen, Zi Yuhan, and Demon Spirit were drawn to No. 14, No. 3, No. 8, and No. 11 respectively, while Bi Lingxiao drew No. 1, and several people were lucky not to bump into each other.
"May I ask what the death toll of this melee is?" As the last person to draw lots, Bi Lingxiao took out the hook jade and looked at the black-robed man.
"The total number of deaths is two hundred and seventy-three, and the number of dead players is one hundred and sixty-one. In addition, the winner of the first match advances directly to the semi-finals of the third match, which takes place in the afternoon of a week, once a day at the Colosseum. The man didn't raise his head, but turned away with a faint word.
"Xiaoxiao, is there anything wrong?" Mo Chen walked over at this time.
"Don't you think it's strange that so many people have died, big brother. Bi Lingxiao frowned.
"Indeed, the space in which the melee is carried out is very reasonable, and once there is a danger to life, you can urge the identity card to teleport out of the space, and it stands to reason that it will not cause too many deaths. Mochen also felt that something was wrong.
"Yes, and at first I was surprised that the ID card was only worn by each player, and the accompanying family members did not. Once you really encounter the danger of having to teleport out of the space, it must be something that the two of you can't resist together, so wouldn't you only be able to escape with one person?"
Bi Lingxiao pondered. Mo Chen didn't speak, but his expression showed that he was also puzzled by this question.
"In addition, the contestants who can enter the finals are all elites from all walks of life, and the people who accompany them must be the strongest in the family, and there are many of them that I have detected through the water element alone. Moreover, if there is a battle, the players will be eliminated as long as they teleport out of the space, and there is no point in their entourage staying in it, which means that there is no need to continue the battle. But even so, it still caused such a high death toll. β
β...... Could it be that there are strong people who deliberately want to kill people!" Mo Chen pondered for a moment and said suddenly.
"This is the only explanation that makes sense of such a high mortality rate. Bi Lingxiao nodded. What Mo Chen said was exactly what he was thinking.
In the melee, most of the players will choose a place that they are familiar with. The demon world is basically full of demons, the heavenly world is the heavenly world, and the human world is the human world. Even if there are a few enemies of each other, there will never be so many, and more than half of the people who enter the space are folded inside. Thinking of this, he suddenly had a terrible thought.
"All the elites and masters from all walks of life who participate in this melee are completely weakened by killing them. After all, those above the Dragon Demon, especially those above the 5th Order of the Dragon Demon, are not radish and cabbage, it is impossible to be all over the ground, and this practice is too blatant, anyone with a discerning eye can see it!"
Hearing Bi Lingxiao's words, Mochen frowned. "As soon as you say that, I just entered the square and found that there seem to be only a few of us left in the demons, as if there is still a human being, and the rest are celestials. It seems that this must have been done by the Heavenly Realm. With the Celestial God King and so many Celestial Realm masters mixed in, it would be easy to kill those people!"
"Yes, but I'm still strange, the Celestial God King is not like a brainless person, he will obviously cause the anger of the human realm and the demon realm together, which is not beneficial to the celestial realm at all?"
"God knows what that old guy is planning again!" Mo Chen snorted coldly, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. "Anyway, we still try to win the qualifying position as soon as possible. Now the goal is clear, our opponents are all those celestials. Hmph, it seems that there is no need for mercy on his subordinates!"
"Of course, anyway, the Heavenly Realm is destined to have a stalemate with the Demon Realm. As for those birdmen, if they can be killed, they will definitely not be left alive!" Bi Lingxiao smiled slightly, but he always had a bad feeling in his heart, and he couldn't help frowning. "I'm still worried about what kind of conspiracy Dugu Lao'er has. I've always felt a little uneasy from the very beginning of entering this space, so let's be careful. β
"You must be thinking too much. After all, the Demon Dragon King and the Human Emperor are all here, and that old guy shouldn't dare to go too far. Your worries should be because of the Poria cocos, after all, the space here was opened up by the three kings, probably because of the changes in particles and rays, and the plants are very sensitive, so they are in such a sluggish state, and they should be fine. Mo Chen shrugged absently. The three kings are almost neck and neck in strength, and the Heavenly God King is even in a weaker position, if he makes any small moves, it makes no sense that the other two kings will not notice. Therefore, he was not too worried, but felt that Bi Lingxiao was a little too sensitive.
"I hope so. β
Bi Lingxiao is undeniable. In fact, it is precisely because of the sensitivity of plants that some changes that ordinary people can't find, and since returning from that melee space, this uneasiness has become even stronger. But now what he has captured is some ethereal things, and he can't guess what will happen. What's more, as Mo Chen said, the Demon Dragon King and the Empress are here, if there is really something, then they will find out as soon as possible. But it has been calm all the time, and there has been no movement. In that space, Zi Butian didn't mention this matter, and even he wondered if the Heavenly God King's actions were too secretive, or if he was thinking too much. If it was really because Dugu's ethereal movements were well hidden, why could he find it and Zi Butian couldn't feel it? But he believed in his instincts, something bad must happen, but the most important thing now is the ranking battle, if something really happens, then the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it!
In order to better prepare for the next game, everyone returned to their rooms to concentrate on their physical and mental state. The next game is the top priority of the qualifying battle, and it is definitely not as easy as the first two rounds that can be passed at will, this time it is related to the final ranking, so everyone dare not slack off, even Zi Yuhan honestly went back to the room to settle down. If you want to say the most maverick among several people, it is the purple pine forest.
It seems that he has made up his mind to cheat even if he doesn't get the ranking, and this guy has no motivation at all. When everyone was adjusting their state, he was still the same, he should eat, he should sleep, and there was no tension at all. Although Bi Lingxiao himself also plans to 'smuggle in', the little bit of competitiveness in his heart is troublesome, if he can achieve the ranking with his strength, of course, it is better to beat it himself. Although I didn't dare to be too conspicuous because of the existence of the blue sea, what if a miracle happened! Soon a week passed, and early this morning, Bi Lingxiao walked out of the room for the first time in seven days.
"Xiaoxiao, it's your game in the afternoon, what kind of opponent is it?" Seeing the people who came into the hall, Ye Zi said with concern.
Mother's words made Bi Lingxiao stunned, thinking that he really didn't know who the opponent would be in the next game.
"I really don't know, I didn't pay attention to other people's numbers...... It doesn't matter, you'll find out in a moment anyway. β
"Your mother wants you to know your opponent in advance so that you can prepare. But since the competition is coming up, I don't have time to prepare for anything. We're all going to cheer you on, you have to fight for it!" Bi Chengtian smiled at his wife and made a cheering gesture at him.
"Second brother will definitely win, you say right, big brother!" Zi Yuhan leaned on Mo Chen's shoulder and played with his hair, and the latter nodded very affirmatively.
"Of course!"
"Oh, yes, it's not kind to show affection in public!" Zi Songlin looked at the two people sitting opposite him and joked.
"Hmph, brother, you're jealous, **naked jealousy!" Zi Yuhan raised his chin with a proud expression.
"It's easy for the two of you to say, whether you win or lose or don't know!" Bi Lingxiao shook his head with a smile. Although he didn't know who his opponent was, one of the few surviving twenty-eight people, if it was those celestials, it would be fine, except for Dugu Wuying and Chu Xiaoxiao, it seemed that he was only at the level of the 1st and 2nd orders, if it was the only human being...... Although he only glanced at it that day, he clearly remembered the human beingβa fifth-order level.
"What's not for sure, second brother, you still don't believe in your strength!" Zi Yuhan didn't take it seriously at all.
"Yes, yes, our young master is going to win the first place!" Zi Songlin laughed and followed.
A few 'little children' you said a word, but the two elders of the Zi family looked at each other: Isn't it just a black unicorn with black eyes, it's already a great miracle to be able to come here, why do Alin and Han'er praise him so much?
"How can you say that you are also here, why won't the first place come to me, do you still want to release the water?" Bi Lingxiao shrugged helplessly.
"Who will release water for you, there is absolutely no suspense that you will lose! To be honest, Xiaoxiao, I don't even have the slightest certainty of beating you, I have never won against you since I was a child!" Mo Chen smiled and shook his head.
"At the beginning, it's almost broken by you, okay! In the end, it's basically just a fight between fists and feet, if you fight seriously, ......
"Look, Han'er, you also heard it, Xiaoxiao is not serious yet, but I am very serious every time!"
Bi Lingxiao was interrupted just as he was about to refute, Mo Chen shrugged his shoulders, and showed an expression of 'I just can't help it if I lose'. The two elders of the Zi family were taken aback: a black unicorn dared to fight with the hidden demon? and he had never lost? the other party was still the number one wizard in the demon world?
"Our young master has always been modest, but judging from the way the game is played, it seems that it will be the two of you who will play the semi-finals in the end!" Zi Songlin tilted his head and thought for a moment.
"Don't talk cool there!" Bi Lingxiao rolled his eyes. His biggest regret is that he can't meet this guy, and he can naturally beat people up. However, if he can really win the afternoon game and get lucky to pass the level of Mochen, it seems that he can really meet the purple pine forest. But if it does, wouldn't it be a shame if he couldn't beat it? Holding his chin, he thought 'very seriously'.
