On March 1st, it was sunny, and the city of Ninh Binh was peaceful, boring and quiet.

The members of the Peace Regiment have been settling in this outskirts for nearly a week, and they have lost interest in the scenery around them.

As a big tourist said, no matter from which point of view, Ninh Binh City is not a city suitable for travel and sightseeing.

After losing the pursuit and exploration of the unknown, the group also turned their attention to business....... The team competition is about to begin.

The end of February is the registration deadline for the team competition, and a lot of information is not compiled until the last minute, and many recommended places are counted on the last day.

This is not an accident, many people deliberately got stuck in the time node to report their battle group, and the total number of participants suddenly increased several times.

The original rankings and intelligence were instantly invalidated, and now the gathering of opponents' intelligence has become more hurried, which seems to be a useful strategy.

Even with the approval mechanisms of major forces and cities, the participating teams this time still far exceeded expectations...... Some were assigned by their superiors, and some independent warbands were clearly here for the unknown benefit.

The team competition requires venues and resources, just like the temporal arena of the city consumes a lot of time-based materials for a long time, and the simulation and actual combat ability of the digital city also has a limit, and the existing team of 580+ is obviously beyond the scope of bearing.

"It's a bit too much, let's cut it in half."

Digital City's handling of this kind of accident is also quite "digital".

A random draw was given to each warband to find an opponent, and the winner moved on to the next round...... This is not even the first round of elimination, but is directly called a "warm-up match".

What? You directly extracted the quasi-mythic/mythical warband? Hero, please do it again, luck is also part of strength.

At least the current decision-makers don't seem to care much about the feelings of the rookie warband.

Absolutely fair and personal thoughts? They seem to just want to see results as soon as possible.

When the news was announced, looking at the announcement with only three lines, even Zheng Li was frightened....... It's all about the destiny of heaven, who can stand it.

"This is too much, if I draw a myth, how can I go back and confess?"

At that time, the newcomer's communication channel was fried, and no one could accept such a result.

This is too nonsense, you can't prioritize efficiency to this extent.

Besides, many people have been informed in advance, and this team competition, as in the past, is also based on teamwork and overall combat power.

To put it bluntly, it is very likely that it is a PVE that hunts beasts and executes difficult commissions, and how did it become a human civil war PVP as soon as it came up.

But luckily? A day later? Two additional provisions have been added.

The first one is to encounter the officially designated thirty warbands? Have a chance of a repechage? Fight another loser who has encountered a designated warband, and the winner will qualify.

The second? is to increase Zheng Li's familiar voting mechanism, and the video of the "warm-up game" will be placed on the Internet? Voted by everyone participating in the team competition? The top 10 of the losers advance to the next round.

Someone pointed out on the spot that this is not the rules of the digital city at all, and only the digital city in the six central cities has never been voted....... Probably, within the scope of their thinking? Admit defeat if you lose? Giving another chance is a waste of resources and time.

Some people speculate that it must be that the superiors of other cities were also frightened by the "decisiveness" of the digital city, and hurriedly stopped it, and made a compromise after urgent consultation.

Not to mention, did you really encounter a collision between two mythical and top-level warband warm-up matches? One must be eliminated from each other, and the big city parties involved probably can't stand it.

"Huh? Although it was expected, among the thirty designated warbands? Sure enough, there is no name of our peace war group. ”

These thirty designated warbands are undoubtedly the strongest thirty recognized at the official level? Zheng Li browsed the catalog? It seems that the quota reported by the major forces themselves.

"Three for each of the six cities? That's eighteen, plus 12 designated places for neutral, large companies. Tsk, not even Liu Yuan's war group. ”

There are only 3 designated places in Shiqian City, namely the 1st Regiment of the Military Department, the 1st Regiment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the 1st Regiment of the Ministry of Communications, and the 2nd Regiment of the Military Department where Liu Yuan and Zhao Yuzhen are located have no quotas, not to mention the regiment formed by Zheng Li, a civil champion.

The sudden increase in the round of events naturally required a revision of the participation schedule, and the warm-up match for the team competition was directly advanced to March 5, that is, only 4 days before the announcement, plus the draw and preparation time....... Contestants from other cities were once again shocked by the "efficiency" of the digital city.

However, due to the two new supplementary terms, the participating teams are not as anxious as before, but have some excitement and anticipation.

At least Zheng Li himself is looking forward to this warm-up match held in advance, on the one hand, because his party is really a little uncomfortable, and more, he can still experience the "simulation battle" technology of the digital city in advance, and do some training and preparation for the main competition in the future.

Yes, mock battles, or to use an inappropriate and graphic analogy - "intubation in the back of the head" and "the world of consciousness".

"Is this the world of consciousness? The sense of smell and touch is exactly the same as the real thing. ”

At the lottery ceremony on March 3, Zheng Li, as the head of the competition, first tried the taste of entering the world of consciousness.

He didn't go to the core area, but just went to a designated room on the periphery, and then, escorted by his companions, lay on a special warm bed, pillowing a dark green jade, and instantly lost consciousness.

The next moment, he appeared in the deserted ancient battlefield, and when he opened his eyes, what he heard, what he knew, what he perceived, and what he saw was the same as in reality.

Not only the physical senses, but also his psionic energy is feeding back that everything around him is the real world.

"Poor."

The inquiry was not answered, and Ah Poor, who could be deliberately separated before entering, did not enter this world.

The triennial finals continue to rotate between the digital city and the time-moving city for a long time, because the contestants can walk off the field alive.

The time migration city relies on the god-level strategic weapon to go back in time, and the digital city also relies on the strategic weapon of the old era "Prophet's World", a virtual world whose legend is completely true, the digital world of the digital city.

Zheng Li's infrared perspective can still reflect the creatures around him and the changes in the weather, and his ability can even predict the weather of tomorrow in this sky........ Obviously, this is only a temporary space, and there should be no tomorrow.

"Oh, I see, it's a little different from what I imagined, it seems to be another lie......"

Unexpectedly learned some confidential information, but Zheng Li would not say it stupidly, he just seized the time to adapt to the surrounding environment and test a spirit blade.

"It's exactly the same, including all abilities and physical states."

Lin Yuying, who deliberately maintained a state of fusion, was also brought in by him, and she also showed her thumb to the sword master.

She had just made a small cut in it outside, and had been deliberately using blood to prevent healing.

Now in the "dream of consciousness", the wound is still bleeding.

"The blood energy is still being consumed, I can't tell if it's real consumption or simulation, I should be able to know when I go out...... Most of the time it's real consumption. ”

This level of virtual world shocked Zheng Li himself, who came from a civilized country, and he originally meant that it was VR technology from the old era, but it turned out to be a "real world" where there was no difference at all.

"How? There are no computers here again........"

But there is no time for him to ask questions.

A red orb floated in front of him, with 33 written on it, and the draw had already ended.

And with the direction of the sphere's floating, Zheng Li noticed it....... Himself and the ground beneath his feet are also in a huge sphere.

There are hundreds of such spheres floating in this area, and below the spheres, there is actually a standardized variety show stage, and the host is quickly introducing the name of the battle group!

Wearing the artificial spirit weapon from afar, Zheng Li noticed that on other spheres, there were also faint numbers, either red or black, which corresponded one by one, which was the ordinal number of the arena.

And the extension of his own sphere is the red 33!

It turned out that from the moment he came in, Zheng Li was shrunk and put into the sphere, and the draw ended the moment he entered!

"The digital world of the digital city...... What a liar! ”
