The next morning, I got up early to shower and change clothes, then ate a lot of things for breakfast, and drank a glass of water to prepare for the online struggle.

When I woke up, I received a text message from the competition, saying that in order to leave more time for the top 32 to build momentum, the preliminaries must be played today and tomorrow, so the schedule is very tight, and I am afraid that I will have to play about ten games a day to enter the top 32.

Of course, the premise is that you can't lose before entering the top 32, because this competition adopts the principle of single-game elimination, as long as you lose one, you will be eliminated immediately, and there is no chance of resurrection.

A game is won or lost in three games, and this way of playing undoubtedly makes the outcome of the game more accidental, and anyone who is not good can overturn in the gutter. But thinking about it another way, the emergence of more accidents undoubtedly greatly increases the excitement of the game.

The competition is only more fun if it is exciting, and the organizers have a certain reason for this arrangement.

At seven o'clock, Lin Xiaoran and I went back to the room to go online, as long as we were 30 seconds late in this competition, we would lose it, and there was no emotion to talk about, so we didn't dare to have any carelessness.

As a frequent visitor on the level list, it would be too embarrassing if he couldn't finally appear in the list of the top 32 offline competitions. What's more, this is a rare opportunity to prove ourselves to Lin Xiaoran's father, and we must not take it lightly.

In a flash of light, I appeared in Lingyun City, and immediately received a match-related message when I went online, reminding me that the game was about to start, and that I should not stay in any mirror map at this time, so as not to affect entering the mirror arena.

My first opponent has been matched, and it's a little Lori who is only level 65, a professional mage.

In a single-elimination game like this, when the system conducts electronic lottery grouping, it basically follows the set of rules of Tian Ji horse racing, and the strongest against the weakest, and the players in the middle try to arrange them with evenly matched opponents. This is the only way to eliminate the weaker players first, and try not to let the masters meet in advance.

I'm now ranked second in the whole of China, so the opponent drawn should be one of the lowest ranked.

At the same time, the rules of the game have also come out, for the fairness of the game, except for the summoner profession on the field, other players are not allowed to summon pets to help fight, and skills with a CD time of more than 600 seconds are also prohibited, like my life and death cycle is estimated to be banned.

We were a group of people who got together and waited to get into the game.

Lin Xiaoran said: "Let's see who comes out first in the first game." ”

I said, "No, of course it's you." ”

"Why?"

"Because you are beautiful, the opponent sees it and admires it directly, and of course it is the fastest without fighting."

"Hate ......"

……

More than 10 minutes later, I received a prompt: the first round has officially started, should I enter the competition venue immediately?

I immediately chose to confirm.

In a flash of light, I appeared in a 100×100 mirror arena, and at this time my opponent had also entered the arena, which was the level 65 Lori mage named Tintin.

As soon as the little Lori came in, she said aggrievedly: "Woo, it's really unlucky, I met the second-ranked master in the first game, and I thought I could win one." ”

I thought to myself, no matter how you score at this level, you are destined to play against players above level 90, even if you change opponents, you can't win, players above level 65 and level 90 are too different, this is not at all made up for by technology, and now the skills of players who can upgrade the level to level 90 or above are definitely not much worse.

The next moment the countdown to the game began, and Xiao Lori still said to me pitifully: "Brother, can you let me win a game first, the registration fee that people have managed to scrape." ”

I couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and replied to her, "No, the question is how do you win me?" ”

She thought about it seriously, and then made a very unreasonable request and said, "You stand still and let me fight." ”

The reason why I say unreasonable is not that I think her request is excessive, but that I don't think that she can hang me up if I stand still.

At this time, the countdown of the game had ended, and I stood on the spot and said to her generously: "Fight, I won't move, let you play a game." ”

"Thank you, brother, you're so nice." Tintin said as he immediately walked over and raised his staff and threw a fireball at me.

"Whew!"

The fireball exploded on me, and I just felt - it didn't seem like I felt anything, I couldn't even feel the feeling of an ant bite, and a 1-point forced blood deduction damage floated on my head, and Lori's magic attack was too weak to break my defenses at all.

Little Lori was unwilling, and another magic hit me when I started, but I was still motionless, and I didn't even bother to move the shield in my left hand.

"Smack!"

The magic exploded in my chest, still 1 point of forced life.

At this moment, the little mage Lori cried in despair.

"Woo, the registration fee that people managed to get together with great difficulty, but they couldn't even win a game, and the 100 gold coins were gone.

I spread my hands and said, "I'm sorry, I really can't help you, I can't kill myself for you to win a game, right?" ”

"Woo, it's not your fault, it's that people's attacks are too low."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, I couldn't bear it for a while, so I continued: "Or I'll make up the registration fee to you." ”

She raised her head sharply and quickly wiped away her tears: "Okay! ”

I had no choice but to open the trading interface and throw 1000 gold coins directly to her.

After Xiao Lori handed down the gold coins, she said to me: "Brother, I don't waste your time, so I will work hard to level up." ”

After saying that, he decisively gave up the game.

Then there was a flash of white light, and I was teleported out of the arena. Glancing around hurriedly, Lin Xiaoran and the others seemed to have finished the first battle and were chatting together.

With a flash of light, I then entered the mirror arena again, leaving the group outside.

On the other side, little Lori saw me, smiled slightly, and chose to give up again.

So I won the first race in a very shameful way.

At this time, I suddenly thought of something, and I felt so frightened, my opponent abstained twice in a row, and after receiving my gold, the system should not think that I was bribing the tournament and thus disqualify me from the next competition, right?

At this point, I was teleported out of the arena for the second time.

At this time, the opponent of the second game has not yet been decided, and everyone is really discussing the matter of the game just now.

Lin Xiaoran: "One sword, one game, two swords to solve the battle, the opponent is too weak, I hope the next game can let me draw a stronger opponent, at least let me have a chance to warm up." ”

Pi Tangzhang: "I don't even have to sneak, the mage on the other side can't touch me at all." ”

Yaxin immediately said not to be outdone: "The little warrior opposite me can't break my shield yet, and he was directly killed by my ice archery technique." ”

……

At this time, they suddenly noticed that I was already standing next to me, so they all looked at me and asked almost in unison, "Longhu (Chen Hui), why did it take so long for you to come out?" The opponents in the first round should be very weak. ”

Me: "Would you believe me if I was talking to people in there?" ”

A group of people showed disdainful expressions at the same time: "Cut~!" ”

In these years, no one wants to believe the truth.

……

Soon, we were matched for the second game. This time my opponent is a warrior from our sworn enemy, the Battle Emperor Palace, a level 75 battle dwarf, and in my opinion, he is the one who came to abuse me on behalf of the War Emperor Palace.

The next moment, when I entered the playing field, I was immediately happy to see the image of the other person, because the horizontal and vertical development of this product were almost synchronous, so it really looked like a ball (Note 1).

Before the countdown to the game was over, I directly pulled out the frost spear and pointed it at the other party and said, "Boy, obediently wash your body and come over to die." ”

The other party gritted his teeth and said: "Lao Tzu will not let you succeed if he dies." ”

So, when the next second system countdown read to zero seconds, he decisively chose to give up the game, and flew away from the field before I could get close. This is the case for two consecutive games, and there is no need to play the third game after the preliminaries 2:0.

So I didn't fire a shot and went into the third round shamefully.

The players who were able to advance to the second round had more or less some strength, so this time no one ended the battle earlier than me.

After a while, after Lin Xiaoran and the others came out of the battle one after another, they were suddenly slightly surprised.

"Longhu (Chen Hui): Why are you so fast this time?"

I spread my hands: "The opponent didn't want to be humiliated by me, so he chose to abstain, in fact, I haven't fired a shot until now, and I have already advanced to the third round." ”

Everyone showed a disdainful expression: "Cut~!" ”

In this era, to be honest, is it destined to be despised?

Then my third opponent game ID Zichen the Great, this is a level 80 thief, standing on the opposite side waiting for the game to count the seconds and keep playing with the dagger in his hand, he doesn't even want to look at me, and his appearance is cold and arrogant, as if he really thinks he is some kind of emperor.

I immediately felt extremely relieved, at least this opponent would not abstain and end the match, and the girl would finally have a chance to move his hands and feet. So I decided that I had to abuse each other in the next two rounds.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

As the game ended with the countdown, the enchantment set in the middle of the arena immediately disappeared, and the other party sneered: "What about the second place on the heavenly list, and see how I kill the master of the heavenly list against the sky." ”

As he spoke, the other party's figure quickly disappeared and entered a stealth state.

Note 1: In Cantonese, "ball" is usually said to be "wave", for example, if you ask someone to play ball in the afternoon, you will say, "Go play wave after work." ”
