Chapter 511: Let's take a peek first
After 50 days of competition, the first stage of the Qualifiers for the Little Adventure World Championship has officially ended.
Except for a few unlucky people who have encountered the big guy 10 times, the other players who should be promoted have all been promoted, and those who don't have the strength to advance will be given another 10 chances.
After two days of trimming, the knockout round of the second stage of the competition was officially released and the competition process was announced.
As before, this knockout round is still a schedule promotion system, but it is not a "ten-final promotion system", but a "one-game promotion system", a game is determined to win or lose, and only one player per game, or a team of players can qualify for the promotion.
There are 48,216 players who have advanced to the single competition and 22,549 teams in the team competition, but there are only 120 and 24 teams in the promotion places.
Therefore, the knockout tournament uses a special large map, with 400 players per round in the solo tournament and 30 teams in the team tournament, except that the solo tournament only needs to be played once, while the team tournament requires two consecutive matches.
Of course, this is not very fair, because according to the number of people who advance, the single match 48216 people divided by 120 is almost equal to 402 people, and the team match 22549 divided by 30 and divided by 30 is almost equal to 25, that is, if some players participate late, if the qualifiers are full, they will be of no use even if they win.
Therefore, this time the schedule is ten days, and the previous qualifiers, in the daily Shengjing time at 0 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 18 o'clock start half an hour of registration, one round, or two rounds, to determine the winners, all the losers are eliminated, when 120 single players, 24 teams of players to advance to appear, then the end of the knockout round, even if they are not eliminated, the small number of players who are still eligible for the competition, are also eliminated.
To put it simply, it means that there is not so much time for everyone to wait and see, and if you participate late, you may even lose without a fight.
……
As a fifth-order [Yellow] level [Electric Shock] superpower user, Shen Ming was of course a qualifier and qualified to participate in this tragic elimination match.
Therefore, at less than 11 o'clock in the evening on September 5, 2023, he waited early in the game hall of the virtual reality world, ready to participate in the competition for the first time.
Of course, he didn't wait, but after carefully reading the official knockout format process, he clicked on the live broadcast of Good Dreams.
Due to the fact that no real live broadcast website has successfully passed the review and entered the virtual reality world, Good Dream Live is the only live broadcast platform in the virtual reality world, but it is different from the beginning.
It is no longer the simplest extensive panel ranked according to the number of viewers, but according to the different live broadcast content, it is divided into partitions, such as [Virtual Reality Game Partition], [Virtual Computer Game Partition], [Singing and Dancing Partition], [Talent Show Partition], [Cultural Communication Partition], [Language Arts Partition], etc., each partition also has a specific and detailed small partition, and the homepage of Good Dream Live now displays the top three rooms in each partition with the number of viewers.
Of course, as the official current most vigorously promoted acquisition, the Little Adventure World Series also has a special division, just at the top of the live broadcast page, divided into [Little Adventure World Series (Knockout Single Group)], [Little Adventure World Series (Knockout Team Group)], after clicking on it, it shows 120 and 900 live broadcast pages respectively, but, because the live broadcast has not started, these pages are all black, and it is useless to click on them.
However, in the live broadcast that is being broadcast, there are also many live broadcast rooms related to the competition, and some are seriously analyzing some of the famous masters participating in the competition and discussing whether they will win; Some are saying goodbye to the audience, and the live broadcast will immediately go to the schedule; Others are analyzing what the new map might look like this time, and how it will differ from the previous map......
After watching the live broadcast for a while, the time is getting to midnight little by little, and the first and a half hour of competition time is coming.
5,4,3,2,1!
At 0:00 a.m., the icon of the "Little Adventure" game lit up, and the banner of the original "Qualifier" on it became "Elimination".
Shen Ming is a solo player who likes to play games alone, and he chose to play solo matches in the previous qualifiers.
In fact, there are fewer solo players than team players who participate in the tournament, and the reason is simple, because Adventure is a game with a certain degree of difficulty, and it is more difficult for solo players to play than team players.
For example, the boss at the end of each map, if there is no high-level superpower, just with the weapons provided on the map, one person basically can't beat it, and at least 5 ordinary players have to cooperate tacitly to defeat it.
The one-person game also has a lower margin for error, and one person dies and the game is over, unlike a team, where even if one or two people are accidentally attritional, others can continue to play.
Moreover, having a companion by your side, helping to observe the back road and alert the surroundings, is also a huge improvement for the player's psychological sense of security, especially for those female players.
Just like when Shen Ming played the qualifiers before, most of the 120 people in a game during the game were male players, and there were basically no female players, but in the live broadcast of the team competition, he did see a lot of teams with female players or purely female players.
The time had come, but Shen Ming didn't immediately click the button to enter the game.
There is no other reason, he is still ready to wait and see, it's not that he is not in a hurry, after all, the knockout match uses a new big map, which is different from the original game, and he wants to see what the situation of this knockout match is through the live broadcast first.
But in the end, not everyone is the same as he thinks, there are many players who are anxious, and the originally black live broadcast rooms in the competition area of the good dream live broadcast are slowly lit up.
Each live broadcast room is numbered below, and Shen Ming directly clicked on the live broadcast room called "Single Knockout 001".
Click on the next option that pops up:
"Please select:
[Normal Viewing Mode] or [Holographic Panoramic Ghost Mode]"
After thinking about it, Shen Ming directly clicked on the latter [Holographic Panoramic Ghost Mode].
In an instant, Shen Ming felt as if he had turned into a ghost, his entire body became transparent, and then the surrounding environment suddenly changed.
As far as the eye can see, there are large expanses of white, large expanses of ice blue.
It was the blue ice beneath your feet, and the huge snow-capped mountains in the distance.
Less than 100 meters away from him, a large steel ship was sailing over, breaking through the layers of ice, and finally stopped and lowered the rope.
People dressed in different clothes slowly climbed down the rope and stood on the thick ice.
It's really a big new map, I haven't seen it before. These...... It should be the player!
But what is their mission?
Before Shen Ming could figure it out, the sky in the sky suddenly changed, and a huge snowstorm blew.
