Chapter 122: A Match Between Strength and Weakness
The "Mecha Maintenance Department" vs. the "Ancient Ruins Investigation Department", the first battle of the top 16, attracted the attention of many people. In fact, there is no suspense about the outcome of the game, and everyone is more concerned about what kind of sparks can be created between these two departments with completely opposite circumstances.
In the first individual match, both teams sent strong players. In the end, the members of the "Mecha Maintenance Department" were superior and eliminated the opponent within ten minutes.
In the second ring match, the "Mecha Maintenance Department" ranked its strongest team member Shambaugh in the first place. As a result, this star-level powerhouse took only nine minutes to bring down all three of his opponents. It didn't even take as long as the first individual race.
After winning two games in a row, the "Mech Maintenance Department" has made sure that it will not lose in regular time. Unlike in the group stage, in the knockout round, if the two teams are tied, an additional play-off will be played. The rules of the play-offs are simple, both sides send their strongest players to fight again until the winner is decided.
And with the strong strength of the "mecha maintenance department", even if there is a mistake in the team match, it is impossible to capsize in the play-offs. In other words, they have actually stepped into the quarterfinals with one foot.
As everyone thought, the wealthy "Ancient Ruins Investigation Department" failed to create a miracle in the end, and was defeated again in the team competition. In the end, they ended all their matches in the "Rookie Big Competition" with a disparity of 0-50.
After the defeat, all the members of the "Ancient Ruins Investigation Department" came to the stage together and waved to the audience. Their free and easy work also won them some applause. And the winning side, when the members of the "Mecha Maintenance Department" came to the stage, they won even more enthusiastic applause.
The first round of 16 went so fast that it ended in less than an hour. At this time, there was still an hour before the start of the second game. Su San could only close his eyes for a while, after all, such an embarrassing thing happened last night, and he didn't close his eyes all night.
Maybe he was too tired, Su San just closed his eyes and fell asleep. Scarlett and Gu Qing, who were separated by him, looked at each other and smiled, envious of this classmate's ability to resist noise.
Su San's sleeping appearance was not very good, although he didn't snore, but his saliva flowed a lot, and after a while, he soaked the school uniform on his chest.
Gu Qing looked at Su San sleeping amusefully, thinking about whether to remind him.
"Leave him alone, this guy has never cared about other people's eyes." Scarlett smiled at Gu Qing and said in a low voice.
Since there was still a long time before the next game began, the host Hathaway could only come to the stage to save the scene. Her method is relatively simple, but it is also effective, that is, the "screen kiss", which is more popular in large-scale events. To put it bluntly, the camera rotates irregularly throughout the scene, and finally stops at a couple, and then asks them to kiss each other.
The audience is basically over 20 years old, and the number of couples is not a minority. For such a game, everyone is naturally happy to accept it.
On the holographic projection, a couple was captured by the camera, and they also generously staged a "kiss on the screen". One of the couples seemed to be in love, and the two kissed for a minute, earning everyone's attention.
The game of "Kiss on the Screen" went very smoothly and quickly consumed dozens of minutes. Ten minutes before the start of the second round of 16, the holographic projection shows that the last couple of "screen kisses" will be selected.
The camera pans around the crowd, undecided. Suddenly, as if discovering a new continent, the crew stopped the camera.
On the holographic projection, Su San, who was saliva, was firmly grasped by the camera and displayed in front of everyone. When the audience saw that the idol-level newcomer who was still majestic yesterday looked like this home outside the arena, everyone couldn't help laughing.
The laughter at the scene did not wake up Su San, and he was still asleep as before. From time to time, he would stick out his tongue and lick his saliva around his lips. Seeing Su San like this, the laughter became even louder.
"Haha, this Su San is so interesting." Some viewers laughed and said, "He is not only strong in personal strength, but also has the ability to resist harassment." I can sleep so soundly in the surrounding environment of several tens of decibels, amazing! ”
On the holographic projection, the lens zoomed out slightly, pulling the two companions beside Su San into it.
"Wow, isn't that the leader of the newcomers to the 'Martial Arts Department', Scarlett-senpai. She actually watched the game with Su San alone, could it be that the two of them were dating? The beautiful senior sister is in love with her younger brother, this is a big news! "There are good deeds gossiping on the side.
"No, no, you see Su San sitting on the left, isn't that Gu Qing from the 'Ancient Martial Arts Research Department'? She and Su San are a couple, right? Someone retorted.
This point of view has been supported by many people, and someone said: "Yes, Su San and Gu Qing, one is the captain of the 'Fighting Department' and the other is the captain of the 'Ancient Martial Arts Research Department', and both of them are star-level masters, so they are a good match." ”
Scarlett and Gu Qing listened to the pointing and pointing of the audience around them, and they were a little at a loss. The second daughter glanced at Su San, who was still asleep, and was very troubled by the trouble this guy had brought to her.
The staff of the security department seemed to be deliberately working against Scarlett and Gu Qing. After capturing Su San asleep, the camera never moved away.
"Senior Sister Scarlett, classmate Gu Qing, don't hesitate, kiss him, kiss him!" The surrounding classmates coaxed one after another.
In the center of the venue, the beautiful host Hathaway looked at the screen and smiled. She seemed to see Scarlett and Gu Qing's embarrassment, and said into the microphone: "Okay, it looks like they are not a couple, let's not embarrass Scarlett and Gu Qing." However, don't let everyone down, let's take a kiss pose. ”
There was no way, Scarlett and Gu Qing could only lean their heads on the sides of Su San and make a gesture of kissing his cheek. Coincidentally, Su San just woke up at this time. When he saw the two beauties in front of him, one left and one right, pouting at him, he was so frightened that he hurriedly stretched out his hands to protect his face. As a result, in a hurry, Su San sat unsteadily, and fell directly to the ground.
Scarlett and Gu Qing were angry and happy when they saw Su San's funny appearance. The two girls secretly slandered in their hearts: This guy really thinks he is a treasure, a big beauty like us offers a fragrant kiss, he actually hides himself under the seat like a plague god, he really deserves to find a girlfriend.
The scene of Su San and the second daughter was completely captured by the camera and played on the holographic projection, causing another round of laughter.
"Hahaha, this guy is too funny, he was scared like this by a beautiful woman! Could it be that this guy is still a junior brother? On the side of the stands of the Mecha Specialization, Klein laughed.
Valrhona and Azarenka, who watched the battle with him, also looked at each other and smiled, and the two had a different feeling about Su San, a powerful opponent. This guy is still a minor.
On the northwest side of the venue, most of the students of the "Battleship Command Department" were seated, and Avril was surrounded by everyone, smiling and looking at the holographic projection. For Su San's ugliness, she didn't think it was anything. Everyone is young, and who hasn't had an embarrassing time.
"Hmph, sure enough, the mud can't support the wall, no matter how strong the strength is, it's just a clown!" Thiago, who was not far away, said mockingly.
Avril frowned, and just wanted to speak, but was preempted by Rachel Senior Sister beside her: "Thiago, pay attention to your words and deeds!" If I find out that you are slandering students from other faculties, I will directly expel you from the ranks of the rookie competition. ”
Against the strong Rachel, all the newcomers in the "battleship command system" did not dare to make a mistake. People are determined to become regular military captains after graduation, and the troops they will go to have already been decided. I heard that her position was personally appointed by General Chamberlain. This also makes Rachel about to become the second cadet in the history of the "Battleship Command Department" to become a regular unit captain just after graduation. Fight against her? Isn't it self-inflicted?
was reprimanded by Rachel, Thiago could only be secretly angry, but he didn't dare to fight back. Aki beside him comforted him in a low voice, giving him a little comfort.
In the middle of the two games, there was such a small episode, which can be regarded as adding a lot of talking points to this newcomer competition. As the hour hand points to the position of ten o'clock, the second knockout game is finally about to begin.
"Alright, it's our turn, let's go!" With a wave of his hand, Klein walked to the arena first. Behind him, six team members, Valrhona, Azarenka, Smalling, Roy, Luiz, and Thaksin, followed closely behind, taking steps.
Compared to the first knockout game, the second game is stronger and weaker. Although the "Planetary Geological Exploration Department" broke into the top sixteen, their strength was definitely not ranked in the top sixteen of the "Imperial Royal Academy", and the reason why they were able to qualify was only due to luck and they were assigned to a relatively easy group.
In the face of the "Mecha Specialized Department" with seven team members who are all star-level strength, I believe that what the "Planetary Geological Exploration Department" is looking forward to is just not to lose too ugly.
After the start of the game, the "Mecha Cultivation Department" did not spare the slightest hand, and sent the strongest lineup in the individual competition and the ring competition. This made the wish of the "Department of Planetary Geological Exploration" fall through at once. After the two games, just 14 minutes passed, and that included the waiting time between the two games.
Su San looked at the game on the field, shook his head and sighed. He sighed, why didn't the two colleges he was in have such good luck? Whether it is the "power system" or the "fighting system", you can easily defeat the "planetary geological exploration system" in front of you.
In the ensuing team competition, the "Planetary Geological Exploration Department", which had been taken away, gave up after a little resistance. The opponent's strength surpassed them too much, and Klein alone broke up the five of them, so there was no need to fight this game.
As the host Hathaway announced the results of the competition, the second team to advance to the quarterfinals was officially produced, that is, the No. 1 seed "Mecha Specialization".
