Chapter 414: Match Interval
Chapter 414: Match Interval
After everyone went to sleep, Jixiang and Jili quietly came to my residence.
This time, Leo didn't make much of a move, and quietly stimulated the talents of the two pets.
By the time they left, a faint amount of elemental energy had already begun to converge on their bodies, and immediately, the fluctuations in energy disappeared in an instant.
This is supposed to be the secret method that Leo got from the meteor to hide the energy fluctuations.
I'm a little envious, but I also know that this thing can't be learned, and I don't need to learn it, anyway, Leo is there, I want to use it, just call him.
The day went by like this, and it was time for me to sleep peacefully and Leo to be busy "everywhere......
The next day, everyone watched the game as usual, but the atmosphere in the seats was much more harmonious, and everyone began to move around each other, and it was not long before the originally separate seats were mixed together, and the minotaurs, foxmen, trolls, and loxtods all talked in groups with their respective partners.
As a result, fewer people are paying attention to the field.
Fortunately, the civilian seats were still full of enthusiasm and anticipation for the game, and the whole arena was lively.
I simply sat down next to Atayal.
To be honest, the rest of the race is getting less and less exciting, and the players I was expecting and following are almost all over, and there are very few amazing skills among the first-time players.
However, in general, the overall strength of individual participants is still not as good as that of the delegation players.
In Leo's words: "Shouldn't these unstaffed self-employed people be more desperate to prove themselves?" Why don't you take winning or losing seriously? Is it because the game doesn't care about life and death? ”
I said, "Among the adventurers, there are only a few who are super strong and don't want to be restrained, and the rest, in fact, are not strong enough to enter the army or guardian warrior team, and those who are strong enough have joined the delegation as early as the selection competition...... So, your theories on Earth don't work here! ”
"It doesn't matter," Leo said, "it's all a straightforward way of playing anyway...... These are not prepared to lose because the foundation is not strong, the skills are more than enough, and the strength is insufficient. ”
"Isn't it good to be strong or weak in skill and strength," I said, "and to be strong in both?" ”
"Do you think everyone has extra strength, Physique, Agility, and Spirit Points to distribute just like you? This is a perk of the protagonist's aura! Leo said, "The vast majority of people can only make trade-offs on a limited number of points, and if they add one, they can only ignore the other ......."
"You're talking about things you don't understand again." I say.
"That's what it means, anyway," said Leo, "and it's time for me to reflect on the phrase that the master is among the people." ”
"That's what you said, should you correct the problem in time?" I say.
"Almost," said Leo, "but it can't be completely denied, and there may be some kind of sweeping monk hiding in the shadows unnoticed, and there is some value in this sentence." ”
"What is a sweeping monk?" I asked.
"It's the kind of guy who has great strength but disguises himself as a little person," Leo said, "be careful, don't think that the masters are all on the surface just because you watch a few games, maybe a small trader who buys meatloaf, an old fisherman by the sea, or a peerless master!" ”
"What a mess!" I say.
However, thinking of the old man Gritz had mentioned, I couldn't help but glance at the rabbit man who bought the meatloaf......
How can this kind of person be a master?
Although Leo's words have always been proven to be reasonable, it is still difficult to agree with at first glance.
"Let's watch the game!" All I can say is.
In the next few days, there was nothing special, everyone watched the game, ate and rested step by step.
The elites of the delegations of various ethnic groups have appeared one after another, but unfortunately the opponents are too weak, just like the game of the young patriarch, which can only make people look forward to it, and then quickly divide the winners and losers, including the masters of the lion and tiger clans who have been on the stage for a long time, especially the Cologne centurion.
Of course, the arrogant and arrogant Zhao Ritian is indispensable.
Three days later, the second stage of the competition ended.
In the first stage of the individual competition, our delegations were all watching the game, and now the second stage is actually the game, I played once and eliminated a fellow race. Similarly, our entire Minotaur delegation plus the young patriarch of the twenty-one players were eliminated in total, and with the five Minotaurs in the individual competition, a total of twenty-two people entered the third stage of the competition.
In the third stage, they are basically small masters.
Judging from what Leo knows, there are more than 300 players who have entered the third stage, and the players of our Minotaur Race are actually not the most, the wolf patriarch has a large number of participants, and there are still more than sixty left, and the other races are more or less, they are all about twenty or thirty, and the less ones are in single digits.
In the third stage of the competition, half of the 300 people will be eliminated.
"If this continues, the fourth round will be 160 people, the fifth stage will be 80, the sixth stage will be 40 people, the seventh stage will be 20 people, and the eighth stage will be the finals...... Well, it's going to take two months...... Didn't it turn out that it was estimated for more than a month? When it's all over, the summer is over, right? Leo grumbled.
This kind of complaint is really just a casual remark, and he himself is more patient than me.
"When the game is over, you can go to the human kingdom early, don't you want to go?" I say.
"Ahaha, just complain a few words...... Leo said, "On the earth, even if it is a world-renowned sports event, it will end in about half a month, and the number of participants is about the same as now, and when there are more than tens of thousands!" ”
"Tens of thousands? Half a month to end the game? I said, "Even if your stadium is a little bigger than our gladiatorial arena, can't you put it?" ”
"No, no, no," Leo said, "you only have one arena here, and you don't have enough population size, and you don't have a scientific process to arrange and schedule, that's why it's so slow, on the planet, there are dozens of competition venues alone, spread across one or even several cities, and even off-track tracks, always, there are hundreds of people playing at the same time at every moment of the race." ”
"So, wouldn't the audience be able to watch the game at some venues and miss the others?" I say.
"First of all, there are dozens of events in the competition, including running, jumping, projection and even martial arts, and each viewer can choose their favorite event to watch, and secondly, we have a TV computer, which can save the live footage and broadcast it later, so that you can review all the matches in the post-fight time if you want...... Of course, few people are so fanatical. Leo explained, "In contrast, you have a single project, except that fighting is fighting, and secondly, you have only one venue, and everyone sees it from beginning to end, which is more time-consuming and more boring." ”
"It looks like your so-called competition is just for fun?" I got to the crux of the matter.
"Nonsense!" Leo was right, "I told you earlier that most of the violence and war that our society has eliminated, and all that remains is competition and entertainment, since you can watch singing and dancing banquets, why can't you watch the games?" ”
"You people, you are so unpursued...... "you don't want to protect your people, you don't want to make yourself stronger, you just want to have fun!" ”
"I'll go!" Leo said, "Sure enough, it still can't make you understand civilized society!" Forget it, the transformation of the three views is not an overnight thing...... You just need to know that when people are no longer threatened by war, disease and hunger, recreation and competition are the only options to satisfy their hearts. ”
"For civilian spectators, the games are also entertainment," I said, "and at least they will feel safe and hopeful for peace." ”
"Hehe, you think that's the case," Leo said, "just like you can't explain to an ant what is the use of carving a totem pole for the villagers to bow down, I can't explain to you that we still have a long way to go......
"Well, it's time again to talk about the useless but correct truth." I say.
"I'll go, are you complaining about me?" Leo reacted a little violently.
"Well," I said, "I don't know what's so fun about complaining, but it's kind of interesting just to see your reaction." ”
"You've learned to trick me, too!" Leo said depressedly.
And just like that, the second stage of the competition ended, and the presiding priest announced that the next stage would begin after the next day, and everyone would have a day to recuperate.
Everyone left the venue in order, and many people were ready to go to the city tomorrow to have a good stroll, especially some people who could talk to the allied races. Many of us in the delegation have become good friends with trolls and foxes, and some even plan to form a team to go on an adventure after the game, which is also a benign effect of that exchange meeting.
Of course, there is one thing that everyone has developed a strong interest in, and they have developed a common hobby, which is to go to scalpers and eat new food.
The bear owner's shed is getting more and more lively, and the scalper restaurant is still spacious for the time being because we are the only ones we know, so we don't have to wait in line to eat.
There is another thing, but it is not what I expected - the rumor about the rhinoceros people grinding their horns into powder seems to have reached the rhinoceros people, and many people are discussing it, especially the priests, who are a little nervous.
However, no one would really have the guts to experiment with rhino horns.
However, I heard from the Brad that someone really planned to break the rhino man's horn during the game, even if it was just a little, and then buy the referee priest to bring the broken horn for experimentation......
This worries me a little. I want to talk about "Memoirs of the Bull Head" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
