Chapter 628: The Level of a Champion
Huo Chi took a sip of the competition-specific drink, but he didn't expect this drink to smell like a peach, and the first thing he felt when he drank it was actually bitter.
This bitter taste permeates the tip of the tongue, and then a vague astringency appears between the lips and teeth. Sweetness comes after astringency, but this sweetness is not a beautiful sweetness, but the taste of artificial sweeteners, which is unpleasant.
After the sweetness, Huo Chi found that he still had a trace of spicy and smoky taste left in his mouth! Huo Chi took a sip and put down the drink, what kind of is this? The taste is too ecstatic, taking a sip makes people no longer want to be thirsty!
No wonder Fu Ze said don't drink the drink here, it's too hard to drink, Huo Chi felt that although he only drank one sip, there was still an indescribable weird feeling on his tongue.
"Why don't you drink it?" Abu asked suddenly.
"It's hard to drink, and whoever drinks is uncomfortable. Huo Chi was speechless for a while, Abu, can't you feel the taste through me?
"Drink it all, there's some energy in it. Abu said.
"Can you upgrade after drinking?" Huo Chi picked up the drink with some worry when he heard this. His sense of taste and smell has been strengthened now, and he feels several times more unpalatable than before.
"No, you can't. Abu replied.
"Can that be considered a mission?" Huo Chi asked again.
"No, it's just a small amount of energy, and it's good for me to drink it. Abu replied truthfully.
"Then I won't drink it, I don't think it's worth it. Huo Chi felt that Abu was blinding himself, just adding a little energy, but he wanted him to drink such a bad drink, no way!
Just then, Joey walked over, halfway through the drink he had been offered by the tournament party.
"It's a hard drink, but it's refreshing, and it's good to drink something during the competition to stabilize your mood and help improve your performance. Joey persuaded Huo Chi to drink some.
"It's so hard to drink, what's in here?" Huo Chi picked up the drink, and instead of drinking it again, he asked Joey.
"I heard that it is the essence of various plants. Joey said, "However, it is said that these plants are all from White Eagle's agricultural laboratory." ”
"Agricultural laboratory?" Huo Chi was curious, what kind of institution was that?
"It's the experimental department of White Eagle's research on crops. "The current situation of crops in the subcontinent is not optimistic, except for the good harvest of potatoes, the traditional crops are not growing well, so the laboratory mainly analyzes this situation, and sometimes they will study some by-products," Joy said. ”
"So these drinks are by-products?" asked Huo Chi.
"I guess so. Joey held up the bottle again and said, "Don't worry, it's a plant-based ingredient, drinking a little bit will stabilize your mood and will help you." ”
"It's just too bad to drink, and they should work on the taste. Huo Chi felt that a drink should not be difficult to drink first. However, he also remembered that there were also particularly strange drinks in the original world, such as the XX water that tasted like boiling an old mat, which was unpleasant enough.
That unpleasant drink is also a functional drink in a sense, and it is said to be able to fight the heat, maybe the taste of these energy drinks is really difficult to guarantee, right?
"It's not unpleasant, maybe there is a difference in taste. Joey said, "Actually, my little daughter likes to drink this drink, and I have to buy her a few bottles after this competition." ”
"I knew I wouldn't open this bottle. Huo Chi smiled: "I really can't get used to drinking." ”
"Actually, you can get used to it with a few more sips. Joey subconsciously touched his pocket, which was where he placed the photo.
Huo Chi knew that he missed his family, but this man completely retired after this competition, and he would be able to reunite with his family at that time.
He looked at Joey, who was back in the shooting position, and he could drink it if he could, but he didn't plan to drink it anymore.
He opened the kettle and took a sip of boiled water, well, boiled water is actually sweet now, which shows how unpleasant the drink was just now.
"Look at that Huaxia man, he actually talked to Joey" A round ice man whispered, and Huo Chi heard it clearly.
"The Chinese people want to shoot the champion's sycophant, right? However, Joey can't win the championship in this competition. Another round iceman snickered.
"What, who do you think the champion is?"
"It's not clear yet, but based on past experience, the last champion is generally unlikely to be able to defend his title, and some people will even be eliminated in the group stage. ”
"Eliminated in the group stage? Oh, I knew I was eliminated by buying the championship, and the odds are very good. ”
"I just said it was possible, and his results just now seemed to be okay, maybe he could qualify. ”
"I hope I can make the cut, I was so nervous just now that I didn't get a few bullets. ”
"Me too, haha. ”
Huo Chi heard the conversation between the two and frowned slightly. What is the situation? Qingqing was almost disqualified from the group stage, and these round ice men are obviously not optimistic about Joey either. How could it be so coincidental that it was really difficult to defend the title of the last champion?
"Ladies and gentlemen, please return to the competition station and receive the bullets for the official competition. After the referee announced, Huo Chi immediately returned to the playing position.
The bullets had already been fired, and they looked exactly like the test shots, and he loaded the bullets into the magazine, adjusted the assault rifle, and waited patiently for the game to begin.
The target in the distance actually looks small, at a distance of 300 meters, which is very difficult for an untrained person to hit the bull's-eye with just an ordinary optical sight.
But the people here are all veteran shooters, so even if the target looks as big as a small piece of cake, they can tell the number of rings on the target.
There is also a white dot in the center of the bullseye's nine rings, which symbolizes the ten rings, and all players must work hard to shoot bullets into this dot to ensure that they can advance.
"Ready!"
"Let's go!"
As soon as the referee gave the order, some of the players immediately fired bullets in a hurry, while Huo Chi turned on the shooting aid, and a dotted line shot out of the muzzle of the gun, showing a parabolic shape and shooting at the target.
Huo Chi adjusted his shooting posture slightly, and then easily pulled the trigger, 10.2 rings, yes, it was exactly the number of rings he wanted to hit.
After a bullet was fired, Huo Chi had to wait for the next order, and he patiently stood on the edge of the firing position, moving his neck slightly.
Strange, Huo Chi found that Joey in the fourth position next to him had not launched for a long time, what was going on?
Just as the two minutes were about to pass, Joey finally fired the bullet, and soon everyone's first official shot was displayed on the screen.
Huo Chi narrowed his eyes, something was wrong, how could Joey's results be like this?
