Chapter 19: The First Martial Arts Club in the World Rematch
"Dear players~ I am the GM of the "Gate of the World" game, the organizer of the world's first martial arts club, and the producer and distributor of the "Gate of the World" game, the company's operator and cleaner, you can call me the great divine supreme almighty demon Elder Dyce. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info It's been a long time, it's the first time we've met, hello everyone. β
"You may wonder why I'm talking to you at this time - your last round of GM search is over, and the next one hasn't started yet. Well, the reason is simple - adults will always have various personal reasons, and it's not normal to not be able to answer the phone all of a sudden, isn't it? β
"Forget it, it's not interesting to say that to you. You don't care about me personally--I should say a demon's life, right? So, let's get straight to the point. β
"Now, almost all the players are concentrated in this super large joint dungeon, although in principle, we don't allow players to leave the dungeon during the dungeon, but, in view of the fact that the founders of this dungeon have exploited a very evil loophole and forcibly let everyone be resurrected in the dungeon, as a result, everyone has to be trapped in this dungeon for a long time for your short life, which is not what I wanted, so-"
"I think I'm sorry to you, but the one you mentioned was not too much, and it was very much to my liking, and I allowed it. In other words, without leaving this dungeon, the world's first martial arts meeting will continue to be held on time. I took a look, and according to the schedule, the rematch should have started ten days ago, so let's start now. β
"Anyway, that's the case. Then, the rematch of the world's No. 1 martial arts will start in an hour. There will be a temporary transfer of positions in the semi-finals, and after the rematch, you will be sent back to the positions you were in before the rematch. It doesn't need to be explained, but, by the way, the ratio of the location of this transfer to the flow rate of time in the dungeon is one to one. β
"Hurry up and get ready. See you in an hour, waiting for everyone~"
The motionless fireball in his pupils re-ignited and smashed straight into his face. Lin Qing blinked his eyes very calmly, shrugged his shoulders, sighed, and then tilted his head to the side, staring at the fireball that slid past his head, until it reached a position ten meters away, and then suddenly dispersed, turning into clusters of tiny sparks, and finally extinguished.
"It's just a ball of flame." Lin Qing muttered thoughtfully, then lowered his head and showed a soft smile, "Boy, do you know? You can't call this thing a fireball at all, right? The real fireball technique is wrapped in a stone core in the flames, and not to mention the distance, after hitting the target, it will explode? β
Standing in front of Lin Qing, his hands clenched into fists, it took three minutes just now to hold back a fireball and smash it into Lin Qing's face, and the little boy who was dirty all over his body showed a look of surprise and curiosity: "There is a stone core? How? β
Immediately, the little boy's face changed: "Scum! Don't try to divert my attention like that! β
"Haha." Lin Qing laughed twice, then looked at the little boy who was trying to use another spell, and said with a smile, "It's not to divert attention, I really want to discuss this issue with you." Why do you think you can't even learn a fireball, and in the eyes of some people, you will only be looked down upon by others? Is this a good thing? β
"Drink!" The little boy sent another fireball, this time with much more skill and speed than the last. This shows two things, first, this kid's understanding is quite good, and second, this magic is something he has just learned.
Lin Qing frowned, raised his hand, shook it, and somehow a plastic jar appeared, and then spewed out a long white mist, completely extinguishing the flame that flew towards his face, and then in another flash, the jar had disappeared to nowhere, and Lin Qing's palm had already pressed on the top of the little boy's head.
The little boy with anger and hatred on his face had not yet reacted from Lin Qing's magic performance, he was held down by Lin Qing, and he felt a little confused for a moment, and then, at some point, Lin Qing had already bent down and put his mouth to his ear, just one sentence made his whole body stiff: "You know that, right? Now, if I do it, you'll die. β
"......" the little boy swallowed and shouted a little as if pulling his throat, "you scumbag! Go to hell! β
"Hey, hey, hey...... With the right judgment, your reaction will make me feel more favorable about you, and thus more likely to spare your life. However, a small piece of advice, no matter at any time, do not reveal your true feelings, especially when facing enemies, and it is most important to show fear. Lin Qing's voice was low and ethereal, just like the smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Let's tell the truth, okay, you nod when I say it's right, and you shake your head when I'm wrong."
The little boy's face twitched a few times, but he didn't move. Then, Lin Qing nodded with satisfaction, smiled and lowered his voice and said, "Very good, well done, you are very smart." You'll definitely cooperate with me. Nodding.
"Actually, your hatred for me is not as strong as it seems. Your intellect tells you that you should hate me, and the people who hired you demand that you hate me enough, but I didn't do anything about this city, and all the rest of the world has nothing to do with you, so you don't really care. Nodding.
"On the other hand, you can see the effect I deliberately created. You know, the near-world-destroying power had nothing to do with me personally, everything I did at the time was to set the mood, and then use the precision of time and coincidence to make them connect those things with me. That's why you dare to provoke me alone. Nodding.
Lin Qing showed a satisfied smile, patted the little boy's head, whispered a few more words, stood up, and left the little boy who was standing in a daze and left alone.
Perhaps many years later, the young boy who has grown up and achieved fame will remember what a man who nearly destroyed the world said to him on the afternoon he learned his first magic: "Look at the people around youβyou look like me." Good luck, boy. βοΌ Of course, it is more likely that he died before that day.
After passing by the little boy, Lin Qing walked leisurely on the street of this once not very prosperous because of the Eisen family, but now it is now one of the most intact and prosperous cities in the world, as if he had met the little boy before, admiring and enjoying the buildings on both sides that are different from the reinforced concrete style, as well as the dodging figures and eyes in them.
Likewise, as before he met the little boy, his surroundings seemed so empty that no one dared to stand in his way, let alone attack him, announcing the path of Deathwing, who had declared cataclysm.
So, he had time to think about the valuable information contained in the sudden stillness of time and the familiar jumble of nonsense before the little boy's first attack, and the meaning behind it.
From the first few sentences, the situation is already obvious. Although those players felt that one hundred and eight levels was too long, and it was completely within Lin Qing's expectation to think of a way to get out of the customs outside of the level, they would want to use the last wish opportunity of the world's No. 1 Martial Arts Association, and thought that this game would continue in the dungeon - it was really beyond Lin Qing's expectations that someone would think so.
What was even more unexpected was that it sounded like all the players were in favor of itβat least not explicitly opposing such a very proposal. If Lin Qing's estimation and evaluation of Xiao Cang are correct, then this situation mostly shows that this plan was proposed by Xiao Cang. Although it is different from the route he envisioned, Xiao Cang is still approaching the identity of the hero who saves the world step by step, and Lin Qing can't figure out whether he is happy or worried about this for a while.
And now it seems that the GM, who always wants to make some big news and can't be idle at any time, is starting to get bored again after helping him realize his desire to go to this world in advance, so he adopts this opinion smoothly.
This means that Lin Qing may not have as much time as he expected to finish his revolution in this world with peace of mind.
Considering that Golden Libra did not follow his arrangement and honestly lived a life that was false but happy, the reality was completely out of touch with Lin Qing's script of the perfect ending.
"......" Lin Qing's eyebrows twitched a few times, and his expression was a little dissatisfied, "It's really-I thought it was going to be the finale soon, but now it seems that there is still a long plot to go...... Alas, time is running out, and it is necessary to leave all the revolutionary matters to others - even if they can be trusted, they will not be able to give them an account. Then let's make a big deal first~ I'll talk about the rest later~"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Ahem, uh-huh, dear contestants! Do you miss me? Speaking of which, do you miss your partner so much? After all, most of you haven't seen each other for a long time! Wait for the meeting to let you slowly tell the pain of lovesickness, now, and listen to me announce the rules of the rematch of the world's first martial arts club. β
"The rules for the rematch are simple β there are no rules. The first day here is a safe day for everyone to familiarize themselves with the terrain, set traps, and join forces and so on, and during this time, the players who cause physical damage to the other competitors will be eliminated from their group at the same time. At the end of the first day, your goal is to kill your opponents. β
"There are no rules, no restrictions - by the way, NPCs will not be resurrected when they die, this should not be specifically explained, and then, after the player dies, they will be immediately sent back to the location they left off, and at the same time, in the black gold hall in 'Ayn Grant', there will also be an additional number of deaths, please pay attention~"
"Then, if one of the squads dies, the squad is considered eliminated β I don't think it's necessary, but let's say yes, and even then, the other will stay in the field until the end. The game will continue until there are only 500 sets left, and that's it. β
"The main reason why there are such rules is because there are so many people. After two rounds of strict elimination in the qualifiers and preliminary rounds, the number of participating groups is still in 10,000 units, if this elimination ratio is still maintained, if you want to finally determine the top ten winners, even I will be exhausted, I can't make up any levels......"
"Well, without further ado, now, I announceβ"
"The world's No. 1 martial arts meeting, the semi-finals, now officially starts!"
Lin Qing, who opened his arms and raised his head, but his eyes were trying to look down, and his face was full of arrogant and provocative smiles, and he was finally freed from this posture that he had held for a long time, which made him feel extremely awkward, and when he moved his body, he suddenly felt a sinking of his body, and a warm body temperature from the outside world suddenly covered his chest and flowed to a deeper place.
The golden scale hung around Lin Qing's neck like a koala, closed his eyes, put his ears on him, and said with a smile: "Lin Qing! I knew it! You're coming, it's so slow! β
