"Elsa, Lynn, let me introduce you to you, this is Xin Lian, he will represent our company in the Star Cup Martial Arts Competition. During this period, you will have to cooperate with him if he has any needs. Lian Chengbi got up and said.

Xin Lin nodded at the two of them.

The moment the two of them entered the door, he used telepathy to investigate, the man named Lynn was about eighty years old, middle-aged appearance, strong physique, sharp eyes, and a faint cold air exuded from his whole body, making the temperature in the small area slightly lower by about half a degree, which was difficult for ordinary people to detect.

"This is a phenomenon that only occurs when the Frozen Force has cultivated to a certain point, and he should be a high-level warrior." Xin Lian said secretly in his heart, Lian Chengbi said that the security minister of the Red Bridge Sports Europa Branch was good before, and it must be this one.

As for the woman named Ersa, she is an ordinary working woman, dressed exquisitely and looks good.

"Mr. Lian, Mr. Xin is very young, it can't be that he just graduated from college...... it was Lynn who spoke, he had been looking at Xin Lin since he came in, and after listening to Lian Chengbi's words, his face showed a little suspicion.

Xin Lin didn't care, after all, his age is here, and it is normal for others to doubt his strength, so he generously admitted: "Minister Lynn has good eyesight, I am indeed a fresh graduate this year, please take care of me in the future." ”

Lin En looked stunned, and couldn't help but look at Lian Chengbi, "Mr. Lian, the Star Cup Martial Arts Tournament is not a joke, can this work?" ”

Lian Chengbi didn't know how to explain for a while, so she could only say: "Xin Lone's strength is very strong, my father and I have verified it, I guarantee that there is no problem, you don't have to worry about it." She turned her head again and said, "Ersa, you take Xin Lin to go through the entry procedures, I asked Yimin to send you the contract, pay attention to check." ”

"Okay." Elsa said to Xin Lone, "Mr. Xin, please come with me. ”

Xin Lin followed her out of the office, but Lynn stayed inside, knowing that he would continue to ask about himself without telepathy.

After a while, Xin Lin returned to Lian Cheng Bi's office alone after completing the formalities, I don't know what Lian Cheng Bi said to Lynn, at this time he looked at Xin Lian's eyes completely changed, as if Xin Lin was some kind of incomprehensible existence in this world, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Lynn took the initiative to step forward to hold Xin Lone's hand and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Xin, just now I was offended by not knowing Taishan, please forgive me." ”

Xin Lin was made to laugh and cry by his deferential attitude, and quickly withdrew his hand from the other party's cold palm, and said, "It's okay, Minister Lynn is serious." ”

"That's good, that's good." Lin En was overjoyed, glanced at Lian Chengbi, and said: "Mr. Lian said that I am deeply honored that you joined the company as our deputy director of security, that is, my deputy." Although Mr. Xin joined temporarily and has not been in office for a long time, how can I say that this position is real, and we must know something about the Ministry of Security, why don't I take Mr. Xin to take a look? ”

"No need, my duty is to protect Miss Lian's safety, and I can't leave her side." Xin Lin is here to compete, and he has no interest in Lianjia's company itself, and he doesn't care about the security department.

Lynn wanted to say more, but Lian Chengbi waved his hand to stop him and said, "Lynn, you go back to work, it's good for Xin Lonely to stay with me." We had just come off the ship and needed to rest. ”

Lynn's reason left him speechless, and he gave Xin Lin a flattering smile before leaving the office.

It wasn't until Lynn's figure disappeared out of the range of telepathy that Xin Lin asked, "Miss Lian, what did you tell him to make him change so much?" ”

Lian Chengbi also looked helpless, and said: "I just revealed a little bit of your strength, saying that your Jingwu Long Fist reached the realm of refining, and he immediately changed." Lynn is like this, although the Force is a high-level samurai, but the cultivation is only two-star, the martial arts talent is mediocre, and the overall strength can only be said to be good, in fact, it is relatively average among high-level samurai, otherwise it would not be relegated to our company as the minister of security. This person's personality is relatively straightforward, and he can't hide words in his heart, so you don't have to pay too much attention to him. ”

"Okay, I got it." Xin Lin nodded, thinking that Lian Chengbi This is a euphemism, what kind of personality is more straightforward, this person is clearly a person who tends to be inflammatory, and he does not have the dignity of a high-level warrior at all, so he should stay away.

Seeing that the time was still early, Xin Lin had nothing to do, so he went to the Internet next door to Lianchengbi's office to pass the time.

All morning, Lian Chengbi spent the whole morning in a busy situation, until noon finally dealt with the things that had accumulated for a few days, and then called Xin Lin and her assistant, and went straight to the registration site of the Star Cup Martial Arts Competition.

The venue of the Star Cup Martial Arts Tournament was held in Silverfrost City, the administrative center of Europa, not far from Binghui City, where Redbridge Sports is located, and it was less than a thousand kilometers away.

Silverfrost is the largest city on Europa, with a force field of twenty kilometers in diameter and a population of over 30 million, not much worse than the metropolises on Earth.

There is a comprehensive stadium near the edge of the city, and when the three of them got out of the car, they saw the crowd of people surging in the square outside the stadium gate. Only a small part of these people are contestants, more are citizens who come to see the excitement, and some are tourists from other places, watching the various programs that are being displayed in the square.

"This year's Star Cup has attracted a lot of people...... "Mei Yi Min sighed, she is still young and likes to participate in such lively activities.

Lianchengbi is the opposite, she doesn't like places with too many crowds.

The three of them made their way through the crowd and into the stadium hall, where the martial arts competition was registered. There were quite a few people in the wide hall, but they were lined up in an orderly manner, and they were not noisy, and even if there were voices, they were talking in low voices.

"Mr. Lian, Mr. Xin, let me line up, you go over there and sit down and wait." Mayimin suggested.

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work."

Lian Chengbi and Xin Lin sat down on the chair next to them, and while waiting, Xin Lin quietly expanded the scope of telepathy, probing the crowd in the hall. At this check, I was immediately taken aback, more than half of the more than 200 people around were Force samurai, both junior and intermediate, and there were also a few senior samurai, and their appearance looked very young, basically all of them were participants in this martial arts competition.

Lian Chengbi's eyes were also patrolling around, in the face of so many Force warriors, she suddenly felt a little pressure, these people are all competitors, and they are only a very small part, can Xin Lin do it?

"What do you think?" She couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Xin Shen sighed for a few breaths, and said seriously: "There are more high-level samurai participating than I imagined, but don't worry, this is only an amateur competition after all, the most powerful Force samurai in the Federation are either Star Wars samurai, or they serve in the army, few will come here to compete, even if they come, I am not afraid." ”

Hearing Xin Lin say this, his tone was indifferent and full of confidence and firmness, and Lian Chengbi felt a little relieved, so he didn't say anything more.

Half an hour later, Mei Yimin had already lined up at the front of the line and came over to call Xin Lin and the others in.

In the room at the back of the hall, there is the registration point for the Star Cup Martial Arts Competition, Mei Yimin submitted the information that had been prepared for a long time, and after being reviewed by the staff, it was confirmed that Xin Lin was under the age of forty, and he was not a Star Wars samurai or a member of the university team, so he asked Xin Lin and Lian Chengbi to sign the participation agreement respectively. Xin Lin is the contestant himself, and Lian Chengbi is the legal representative of the company, and their respective agreements are different, and they signed their names after confirming that they are correct.

At this time, a staff member reminded: "Please pay attention to the information at any time, we will send the rules and precautions of the competition to the mailbox, please read carefully." ”

When the three of them left the registration office, Xin Lin immediately received an email prompting him to become the 23,993rd participant in the Suixing Cup Martial Arts Competition, in addition to a copy of the information of the Suixing Cup Martial Arts Competition.

"I'm the 23,993rd, and the number of contestants is almost 24,000, and it is estimated that there will be more than 30,000 in the end." Xin Lin enlarged the email for the two to see.

Lian Chengbi nodded and said: "The number of people I expected is about the same, although each company has two places, but there are too many restrictions, most companies only send one person, after all, there are not many eligible Force warriors in the Jupiter system, and the registration time is very tight, and people outside the solar system have no time to rush to the scene to register." ”

Xin Lin felt a little strange and asked, "Why does the Jupiter Chamber of Commerce set the registration time so short, and it must also register on the spot, wouldn't it be better for more people to participate?" ”

"You can see this question by looking at the rules of the game." Lian Chengbi didn't explain, and said to the assistant: "Yimin, you immediately find the best hotel in Silver Frost City, rent the best suite, and we will rush over now." ”

"Okay."

The three of them got on the flying car and went to the hotel, and on the way, Xin Lin opened the information sent by the organizer of the martial arts tournament and checked it carefully.

The schedule of the Star Cup Martial Arts Tournament is divided into three stages, which are the selection round, the elimination round and the final. All the contestants are divided into eight groups according to numbers, number 1 is in the first group, and so on, number 8 belongs to group 8, number 9 is divided into group 1 from the beginning.

Xin Lone's number is 23993 and he is placed in the first group.

In the selection stage, each contestant participates in two battles a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, the opponent is randomly selected in the group, the winner is divided, a total of 30 opponents have to fight, and the final winning rate is ranked at the top of each group 128 contestants enter the knockout round, if someone has a flat winning rate, the play-off competition will be held.

After the half-month-long tryouts, there is a three-day break before the knockout rounds begin. The knockout rounds are still played in groups, with the winner advancing and the loser eliminated until there are eight people left in each group.

The final finals will no longer be grouped, and the 64 contestants will draw lots to determine their opponents, and it is still a battle to determine the final eight finals and the champion and runner-up!

The tournament lasted for a month and a half, with the trials officially starting on September 15 and ending at the end of October.

The Jupiter Chamber of Commerce claimed that for the sake of safety, the whole competition was held in the virtual world, but the general virtual sensors could not provide enough realism and could not give full play to the real strength of the contestants, so the organizers specially borrowed a batch of professional equipment from the Star Wars League to set up a virtual arena with a simulation degree of more than 99.99%, and established a virtual avatar for each contestant.

Seeing this, Xin Lin couldn't help but feel smacked at the Jupiter Chamber of Commerce's generosity.

This avatar is not ordinary, it requires the use of an advanced scanner imported from the Galactic Empire to collect data from the Force Warriors. This kind of data collection is very magical, the scientific principle has not yet been solved, it is like creating a mirror, all the information of the human body in reality is copied to the virtual world intact, including all perception, function and cultivation, as long as it can be done in reality, the virtual avatar can also do exactly that.

Of course, virtual avatars need corresponding supporting facilities, and can only exist in the virtual world where the degree of simulation is close to absolute reality, and cannot enter the virtual network of the federation.

There are many benefits to avatars, the most obvious of which is that the death of avatars does not cause damage to the real body, and the four major federal leagues have adopted this avatar technology, which can not only ensure the personal safety of the participants, but also allow people to play to their full strength, so as not to worry about the future, and do not have to be afraid of killing the opponent.

However, virtual avatars are not without their flaws, and past data shows that there is a very small probability that frequent painful deaths in the virtual world will leave psychological trauma on the user, but in the face of huge benefits, this small probability event is ignored.

In addition, because the scanner to build the virtual avatar is imported from the Galactic Empire, each scanner is priceless, and the use of the scanner requires the consumption of vacuum crystals, and every time the scan is collected to create an avatar, the energy of the vacuum crystal will be a little less, and a vacuum crystal is only enough to scan a few hundred times!

The Jupiter Chamber of Commerce wants to build virtual avatars for nearly 30,000 contestants, and the vacuum crystals consumed alone are worth more than 10 billion!

"That's a lot of money!" Xin Lin sighed in his heart.

"No wonder the Jupiter Chamber of Commerce wants to set the registration time so short, if the Force warriors from other planets of the Federation rush to join a company to sign up for the competition, how many vacuum crystals will have to be consumed? Even if the Jupiter Chamber of Commerce is rich, it can't bear it! ”

"In addition, it takes time for the scanner to establish a virtual avatar, so many contestants, one by one to scan the past, even if it is not stopped for 24 hours, it will take at least ten days to complete, and it is understandable that the Jupiter Chamber of Commerce will set the selection competition to start in half a month."

In half a month, Xin Lin felt that he should be able to improve his strength, so that he would be more sure to participate in the competition.
