Tap bells

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the streets were lit up at night, and there was a carnival of outlaws in the dark shadows hidden in the shadows.

Mike whistled and carried his racket back to the usual underground arena, where the black golfer he knew well greeted him, gestured to the high platform behind him and spoke with a hint of teasing.

"Hey! Buddy! You recruited that boy! Yes! ”

Mike was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he caught a glimpse of the short figure on the stage that was fighting hotly.

"Is he coming back tonight?"

"That's right...... For three days in a row, he didn't fall in the field, and he won several times in a row without success, which is quite a powerful regular way. ”

The black man whistled and pointed to the circle of people behind him.

"I'm betting on whether he can continue to win tonight!"

"It's a ...... of obsession"

Mike muttered, unlike most of the people in this arena who only mess underground, his playing style is very mixed, and he also participates in regular competitions, so he naturally knows that Echizen, who is playing the stage, has several open tournaments during the day.

Playing games day and night like this, is this kid crazy......

"Bang!"

There has always been a lack of terrifying power on the high platform that has always advocated absolute strength.

Sideways to avoid the ball wrapped in great power, Echizen held the racket with both hands, and with a dodge, he bounced the ball and returned heavily!

The fatigue of several games in a row made the body's reaction a little sluggish, but Echizen didn't care at all, and Zhan Zhan's bright eyes only saw the game in front of him.

Days after a few days of racing were burning his energy like crazy...... Hone his skills and strength.

He felt the loss of strength in his body again and again to emptiness, and then slowly filled, and what had been accumulated for a long time and refreshed the realization seeped into his mind little by little, his heart...... and every muscle of his limbs.

He shook his head, sweat sliding from his cheeks, forehead, and even eyelashes, shattering on top of the back-and-forth thump, light and shadow flickering—everything off the field and time had become a matter of his mind.

He stared at the white player in front of him who was much taller than himself, this was a player who had already become a ball player, such a person was not uncommon in this field, and most of the opponents Echizen had encountered in the past few days had ball momentum, and their strength was mixed.

Looking at the earth-colored halo that struck him, he thought about it for a moment...... At least the level of first-order transformation, which is the best among the golfers he has encountered in the past three days.

His thoughts flickered, but the movements in his hands did not slow down for half a minute...... Sideways struggled to return the blow, and Echizen gasped, his eyes darkening.

Forged into a ball seemed to be stuck on an extremely important bottleneck for him, and sometimes a light crossed him, and he couldn't catch anything when he tried to grasp it.

Without power, when he encounters an opponent who is as distracted or even above him as he has seen before, he will fall into a desperate situation.

Thinking of this, Echizen felt a rare trace of anxiety and insoluble chagrin in his heart, and he was hit by the brim of his hat with a heavy ball that had been brushed for a while, and he staggered back a few steps.

The hat was vigorously lifted off and landed on the ground on the side, Echizen came back to his senses, his bright eyes were like a lone wolf staring at his prey, and a man roared in the sweat and light and struck directly!

War! Whatever he does tomorrow...... What about the comeders......

At this moment - there is only fighting!

"I look at him...... Maybe you can make it to the battle list. ”

Watching the fierce fight on the stage, the black golfer next to Mike crossed his arms and said, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.

"If you can forge it quickly, it's not impossible to ......"

He said it lightly and casually, but Mike was stunned for a moment, he looked at the fierce play of the opponent on the stage and was not flustered...... I may have dragged an unexpected character in a thought.

The ground and the underground are completely two worlds, and there are masters of both of them, but more-

Either he can only shrink underground all the year round and see the light, and he sees blood and violence in the black game; Either they can only live in the goodwill cheers and surrounded by flowers, and are glamorously active in major professional tennis tournaments.

Many regular golfers are unable to adapt to the underground black game, and there is a risk of injury or loss of career if they try it easily.

Mike looked at the nimble running figure on the stage, the skillful figure, and the opponent who was not left behind, licked his dry lips, and his eyes were dyed with real appreciation.

It's not impossible...... Maybe, it's possible.

He inexplicably recalled the thrilling duel he had watched by accident not long ago, and when he looked back at the field, he suddenly had an unknown premonition in his heart......

This time it's a black season...... It could be an unprecedented ...... Storm.

"Hey! Hey! Mike! ”

While pondering, Mike was suddenly awakened by a familiar voice, he came back to his senses, and turned his head to see the person staring at his phone, looking a mixture of fear and excitement.

"What's wrong? What happened? ”

A hand had already reached out in front of him when he spoke, and a few lines of words on the shaking mobile phone screen were shocking.

"Someone, someone has challenged up and down the battle list, and only the top 20 people who are challenged will be posted under the list!"

Exclamations rang out one after another around him, apparently seeing the real-time update news.

The last time the top 50 were purged by a horde of golfers, the changes since then have been much smaller, but those who know a little bit know that this is just foreshadowing.

The real ruthless characters, except for a few who like to slaughter the list, most of them will be postponed and directly provoked.

And when there are extremely high challenge positions on the battle list, it is ...... Picky opening.

"Wow! It's nearby, so I guess you're coming to us. ”

The voice in the crowd was not loud, but it immediately attracted attention in the noisy field.

"Look, look, who's been picked?"

"It's Ghost Jack, who swept eight places last week...... Climbed to eighteen! ”

"Alas! How can you not see who is the challenge...... Who will start first at this time......"

Everyone was speculating one by one, the sound of chirping merged in the noisy field, and the atmosphere in the stadium was even more heated when a scary-looking golfer with a tattoo jumped sideways on the high platform in the middle of the field.

"Oh my God! This is indeed the place! Ghost Jack is up! ”

"What about the other one!"

"Not here yet, are you? Who the hell ......?"

……

The whole audience was looking left and right for the challenger who had not appeared for a long time, and on the two high platforms in the field, in addition to the one occupied by Ghost Jack, the other Echizen was playing on the stage, and something happened at this moment.

“Shit!”

Echizen's ball smashed into the table, causing a cloud of dust, and he looked at the opposite player looking back at the commotion on the sidelines, and jumped off the stage with an ugly face, but he gave up the game directly.

Echizen, who didn't quite understand what was going on, stood on the stage alone, looked at the boiling venue, and glanced at the ghost Jack who looked hideous but couldn't hide a trace of apprehension on the high platform next to him, and was about to step down the stage, but found it at the moment of action...... The noisy crowd around them suddenly fell silent, layer by layer.

“Oh my God……”

Mike looked at the petite figure who pushed open the side door and walked in, swallowing his saliva, only to feel that he was haunted by bad luck......

"It's actually her ......"

In the stadium, which had suddenly fallen silent, there was a sudden "click" sound of a slow heel tapping on the ground......

One by one, and the small bells, it seems to knock on the tip of people's hearts.

Echizen turned around and saw a petite girl in a very strange and complicated dress holding a doll, pushing open the door and walking into the middle of the field step by step.

The girl walked slowly, sometimes with silver bells dangling on her exposed ankles, making a crisp crackling sound.

She looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, and wore a wide black cloak that covered her lace gauze skirt, her skin pale like bone china, and the silver ornaments peeking out of her sleeves glowed a little cold in the dim light.

Pulling down the brim of her hat that covered half of her face, she was looking at the frightened faces of the people on the sidelines with a slight smile through the gauze, and the delicate silver-gray braids under the gauze hat shimmered with the same strange color as her eyes.

She laughed softly, holding a delicate and small doll in her arms, with a pair of beautiful dolls glowing blue, and the delicate and bewitching features hidden behind the veil were in harmony with the same smiling doll, and the whole person revealed a ghostly color like a witch queen in medieval Europe.

"Your expressions ......"

The childish voice sounded softly, and the girl's porcelain-white fingertips dotted her rose-like bright lips, and she smiled innocently.

"That's so good......"

The audience was silent, no one spoke loudly, most of them whispered in horror, and only then did the man look away before he let go of his clenched teeth and lips and gasped.

"Lilia...... Your Highness. ”

Ghost Jack, who was standing on the high platform, took a deep breath and bowed down slightly respectfully, but he didn't dare to look directly at the girl in the audience.

Tilting her head, Lilia looked up with a smile, glanced at the tall man who was respectful and afraid of her, did not speak, only held the beloved doll in her arms, and slowly walked towards the stage.

Suddenly, as if she had finally noticed something, she paused, turned her head, and saw Echizen, who was still standing alone on another platform, still unaware of the situation.

Looking at Lilia's eyes, Echizen was stunned for a moment, and saw a strange light slowly blooming in those silver-gray eyes.

"Your eyes are so pretty."

Lilia tilted her head, as if she had seen something she loved so much, and she looked down and touched the doll's braids, a bright smile blooming on her delicate face behind the black veil.

"Liz also likes ......"

Slowly speaking word by word, she raised her hand, and her porcelain-white fingertips pointed towards Echizen, who was standing not far away.

"So, come ......"

"Let Lilia ...... Destroy it......"
