Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mercenary Competition

August 5th

Dawn is always a time to celebrate, the farmers work at sunrise, the warriors train at sunrise, and there are many prodigal sons who are away, seeing the sunrise is like seeing hope, and people start to plan what they should do for the new day.

"What's going on up front?"

After an hour and a half of exercise, the five of them stood in front of a plain that was supposed to be man-made, and the surrounding woods had been cut down to make a large stage and dozens of wooden sheds. Both the stage and the wooden shed look a little old, but after artificial decoration, it still looks very good.

"Handsome guys, do you want to participate?"

A slim woman wearing only a sexy swimsuit walked over with a small sign in her hand.

"We only have three places. ”

"What is this going on?"

Xing Zeyuan asked his doubts first, he didn't want to be confused.

"This is a mercenary competition, that is, a competition between various mercenary groups, we have a total of thirty-six mercenary groups to participate, and the winner can get the opponent's bet, and then advance in turn. ”

"Deposit?"

"Of course, if you don't have any money, you can also bet on other things, such as spirit crystals, or you can bet on people. ”

"Wow!"

Qian Ling shouted from the side.

"I wonder what the benefits of being first in this contest are?"

"The first place is produced after a fourfold competition, and when the time comes, they can get the inscription of our 'Antar Mercenary Group' - the cold light and knife of the two belts. ”

Glancing at each other, Qian Ling smiled at this sexy and hot woman, and then hugged Xing Zeyuan and piled up with everyone.

"Do you want to participate? It doesn't sound bad, you can also get an inscription, Ganso, don't use your machete, there are too many disadvantages, try another one. ”

As he spoke, Gan Suo habitually touched the handle of his machete, and its disadvantages were indeed becoming more and more obvious.

"Commander, what do you think?"

Mo and Pi Ning were not familiar with this aspect of the matter, and they did not know what these people were holding these things for.

"The difference between the cost of participation and the bet of the thirty-six teams can make them a lot of money, and they are now letting us participate, firstly to get money, and secondly, to make good relations with others! There were quite a few participants, but we don't have to be afraid, because we are poor, and it's time to see what we're capable of. ”

Fighting is always the best way to test your strength.

"What have you been talking about for a long time?"

"We participated, but we had to win first place. ”

Xing Zeyuan said, turned around and smiled, and said to the woman.

"How much is the entry fee for us to participate?"

"Three hundred. ”

"Good!"

A lot of money was deposited in the World Government passbook, but they still had a little money with them.

"This is your sign, you can find your own hut, we will officially start the game at noon today, and it will end at noon tomorrow. Good luck!"

"Thank you!"

The bewitching woman wears heavy makeup and light makeup, so that they do not have any interest. The four men followed behind Xing Zeyuan, a little handsome. They found the thirty-fourth hut and took off their backpacks to rest, and the people around them looked at them defiantly when they saw a group of new people entering.

"Some mercenary groups have quite a few people, and the most is twenty-three. ”

"A large number of people does not mean that it is strong!"

Took out a towel and wiped their faces, and they sat down in their seats and talked.

Bining asked Xing Zeyuan:

"Captain, have you ever participated in this kind of competition?"

"No, I just know. ”

"I feel like you're pretty good about mercenaries!"

"Of course, I'm going to join the Superstar Mercenary Regiment. ”

As early as more than two months ago, Xihe had taught him all about mercenaries.

"I still don't understand the rules of the game. ”

Bining's reaction was a little slow, but Xing Zeyuan explained patiently.

"There will be a total of 36 teams participating in the competition, and we will use a match-to-match approach to selection. For example, after the first battle, eighteen of the thirty-six teams will remain, and the eighteen teams will be left nine in the second battle. The third time maybe four or five left, the third time two or three, and finally the winner and the sword!"

Bining nodded hurriedly.

"I'm afraid they'll cheat. ”

"If they cheat, we don't have to participate in the competition, we just grab the sword. ”

Qian Ling smiled, and the big man opposite them seemed to hear something, and immediately laughed:

"Little hairy guys, you'd better leave early! ”

"No need!"

Xing Zeyuan said loudly across the aisle ten meters:

"Take care!"

With his left hand behind his back, he took down Mo Xing, and now that there were too many people here, he didn't want to bring trouble by swaggering.

"I don't know how thick the sky is!"

The person on the other side said this, and they started exercising without paying attention.

"I have nothing to do today, maybe I can exercise a little more!"

The five of them began to do standard push-ups, so that the eyes of the mercenary groups around them shot here, these fierce men were very similar to the rough mercenaries in Bining's mind, but he felt that mercenaries didn't have to be like that now, because he thought the Red Shield mercenary group was very good.

"Look at those silly boys, the game starts at noon, since you're still doing push-ups, it's really an idle egg!

"It's just that it doesn't look like that's strong. ”

"It is said that people should not be discognizable, so be careful. ”

The leaders of each mercenary group were talking, and Xing Zeyuan and them finished their exercise and lay down for a while. The shack is quite large and can accommodate ten people. During their break, the last two mercenary groups were also assembled, and finally, the game was about to begin.

"Please lead everyone in the group to get the sign and stand in a fixed position, we are about to start the game. ”

"The strength of that Ansel mercenary group should not be weak, you see, these mercenary groups still respect him very much, and everyone has come. ”

The so-called stage is a huge platform made of large wooden patchwork with a diameter of 100 meters.

When everyone was standing in their positions, the woman standing on the stage waved her short skirt that was deliberately cut short, and said:

"When we start the competition, I will randomly select two teams to start the competition, and the head of our Ansel Mercenary Group will draw lots personally! Now, we welcome the leader of the Ansel Mercenary Group who has a star god - Ansel Suiyue!"

With a wave of his arm, on the north side of the station, a woman sat on a high shelf with a large umbrella, the woman had a short oblique haircut, and her short hair covered her eyes, which was very heroic. The woman was dressed in ordinary short sleeves, revealing her wheat-colored skin, and when she looked down at the crowd, she was laughing inwardly:

"A bunch of fools, I can make a lot of money through you again this year, although it is only more than 10,000 world coins, but it is enough. Do you think you can really get my cold light?"

The way she laughs secretly is inversely proportional to her slightly heroic appearance.

Two cards were drawn, the thirty-fourth and seventh teams.

"The first one is us!"

Xing Zeyuan said, walked more than ten meters, and then ran with the people around him, and finally jumped and easily stepped onto the platform with a height of one meter and five meters.

The other mercenary groups were thirty meters wide from the platform, and they had good eyesight during the cultivation, and they could all see the movements on the platform with a diameter of one hundred meters. Xing Zeyuan's five people came to the stage, and no one supported them at all, but the seventh team opposite attracted a lot of admiration.

The seventh team was led by a thin man, the man carrying a sword, like a ranger, and the three people around him were either swords or knives, and at the back, a man with a bow and arrow, with an arrow box at his feet, and a man, who came up with a taiko drum.

The drum, shaped like a sake barrel, rests diagonally on a crossed wooden frame, and the man grasps the rope with four fingers and his thumb stuck on the stick in his hand.

"Since they have a fairy musician!"

"Be careful in a moment!"

"Understood!"

"Does this drum work?"

As Qian Ling said, Xing Zeyuan sighed, a little helpless.

"You'll know in a moment, just keep an eye out!"

"We are the Sonata Mercenary Regiment!"

"We are Red Shield!"

Xing Zeyuan is very clear about the etiquette of this kind of registration word.

"Plant our flag next time. ”

"No problem. ”

"It seems that our thirty-fourth and seventh teams are very confident! Then I now announce that our mercenaries will play for the first time, and now it will begin!"

"One at a time, watch out for snipers!"

Qi Ling's body didn't move, but Xing Zeyuan and they had already rushed out.

"Boom!"

Blocking in front of Xing Zeyuan and Mo's body, two large star clusters in Gansuo's body appeared, followed by a wave of qi, blocking the three arrows shot together. Immediately after Mo stepped forward, he was facing the other party's sword-carrying person who seemed to be the head of the regiment, and Gan Suo blocked the two of them with the machete in his hand.

"Isn't it a little too confident to want to block the two of us alone!"

In the competition, the lethal snipers attacked as usual, and the bow and arrow could pierce through the armor, and if they were shot, they would definitely not end well, but the sniper of the Sonata Mercenary Regiment and Bining still showed no mercy.

The usual Pi Ning looks honest, but their eyes are now like arrows, vicious and tricky. The arrow in his hand shot out, disrupting the man with the sword on his back and the other two. There was also an arrow that was blocked by the crouching Xian Le Master, and then the catalpa body of the Taiko drum began to tremble.

"Boom!"

The Xianle Master's expression was serious, his eyes were focused on the drum, and when the first beat of the Dynagi drum, the sniper had already walked over, and their mercenary group was not reasonable, because there were too few three battle divisions, and both the sniper and the Xianle Master needed to be protected, but now that the sniper has to take on the responsibility of protecting the Xianle Master, it may make people laugh when they say it.

The two large star clusters in his chest shone brightly, and the number of star clusters of the Immortal Musician was the highest in the Sonata Mercenary Regiment.

"Boom!"

The drum sounded again, and the man sat on the ground, holding the stick to his neck with his other hand.

"Boom!"

The air became hot and dry with the sound of a softly beating drum, followed by a denser and denser drumming. Holding the wooden stick in his hand, each click on the drum surface causes it to vibrate violently, and when it is actually struck, the mysterious strings make a shocking sound with an inspiring shock. Wild, exciting, and swift, each sound has a strong rhythm. The wooden stick without the silver edge was quickly dragged out of the wooden shadow in the air, and its speed was still accelerating.

As the drums slowly came into normalcy, his face became more serious.

"Drinkβ€”ah!"

The long, high-pitched sound comes out, and the drumming continues, each time it's uplifting. The head-numbing music clears the mind, and the deep resonance of the heart enhances their bodily functions. Long before the advent of language, we had the ability to compose and appreciate music, which may be the reason why we are infected by music, and deep in our hearts, there are still vague memories of ancient times.

"What a fairy musician, it's really amazing!"

Qian Ling watched Gan Suo slowly climb a bloodshot in the eyes of the two people in front of him, their strength had obviously improved, and Xing Zeyuan stepped forward and resisted one person. Fight it with a dagger in your hand and a set of combat skills that you can easily use. The body rotated, and after taking off, the body rotated, and then stabbed downward, but seeing the sword in the opponent's hand, Xing Zeyuan had to turn back in the air, and then punched it in the abdomen.

The battle on the stage was in a mess, and the audience below listened to the drums and found that there was still a person standing in place on the side of the Red Shield Mercenary Group!
