"Long time no see. Li Xiang smiled and nodded, and then looked at Yakumo Ai who was staring dryly on the side, "Miss Gong Ai successfully got the support of the Yakumo family." ”

"......" Yakumo Ai stroked a few strands of blonde hair in front of her forehead and smiled disdainfully, "You think I don't know about the deal-in between you and Xiao Lie." ”

"Okay, if you help us, I'll admit it. In the future, if there is something in the Crimson Moon, I will bring the Yakumo family to help. Yakumo sighed, it turned out that she didn't like the feeling of being in the dark while owing favors.

Li Xiang glanced at Amakusa Lie in surprise, and found that he spread his hands with a wry smile, and he didn't seem to know when Yakumo Ai learned about the "Yakumo Ruler"**.

Obviously, this Miss Ai's growth exceeded Amakusa Ryu's expectations, and she gradually grasped the right to speak in the Yakumo family without his knowledge.

"That's trouble. "Li Xiang is now eager to win over all the forces that can reach out to help, after all, the backer behind the owl is Ji Blood, if he doesn't say it well, he may collide and conflict with the Ji family of the Black King.

It was one of the five thrones, the most transcendent existence of the Seven Continents.

Several people talked and laughed for a while, Bai Micha was able to represent the Kingdom University this time, which really increased a lot of power to speak in the fourth branch, and Li Xiang also learned a lot of information related to Ye Tong from her words intentionally or unintentionally.

"Anyway, don't worry, if you really start a war with Xiao, I will definitely be on your side!" Bai Micha grinned widely, she came all the way, as long as she was side by side with Li Xiang, although she always bumped and had constant difficulties, she never suffered a loss in the end, and she made a lot of money, so she trusted Li Xiang very much.

While they were talking, a silent horn slowly sounded in the lounge, and with the appearance of the 20th seat of the Katas Zhaofei Committee and the 9th level player [Thousand Faces], the second trial of the Academy Cup officially kicked off.

Crowds of young men poured into the hall from the various lounges, gearing up for the feast.

In the battle of [Emerald Forest], all the students who could come out alive got a lot of benefits, and they were extremely red to see that their classmates were extremely red, with the approach of the starry sky turbulence, who wouldn't want to make a big profit through this kind of official event?

In addition to dragon eggs and fairy eggs, the Five Thrones also offered staggering rewards to young students who came out of the Emerald Forest, including ample cultivation resources, domain titles, and family membership.

They use the House Cup to win glory for the school and benefit themselves, and the Five Thrones is also through this feast to discern the strength of the younger generation and win over those students who do not have a strong background.

The appearance of the thousand-faced man deity made countless students hold their breath and dare not speak.

This is the first time most people have seen a level 9 player, level 9, at the top of the player sequence, is the real person of the Seven Continents.

The Man of Thousand Faces belongs to the Katas Zhaofei Committee, and his origin has always been a mystery, but at the moment he is wearing a white suit, but his appearance is as charming and good-looking as a girl.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is an honor to stand here on behalf of the Katas Zhaofei Committee to explain to you the rules of this trial. The voice of the man with a thousand faces is neutral, but as long as he wants, he can change all kinds of voices, appearances, and even body physiques, "Before that, may I ask if there are any people present who have never fought with xenos?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, looked at each other, and found that all of them had more or less combat experience with Xenomorphs.

"In that case, I'm relieved. The Man of Thousand Faces took a long breath and continued, "The content of this trial is dangerous, and if you have never fought with xenos, I personally do not recommend that you continue to participate in the trial. ”

Everyone was in an uproar, and if they had not fought, it was not recommended to participate? Could it be that the main content of this trial was a battle with xenos?

"[Deep Sea Country] is the site of an ancient country named Loulan during the Blue Star period, which was later invaded by xenomorphs and turned into ruins. As the Blue Star shattered, it rose and sank several times, and it sank to the depths of the ocean, and it took us a lot of effort to preserve it intact. For a hundred years, the Katas Zhaofei Committee has been committed to the study of the [Deep Sea Nation], for some reason, there are a large number of calamity items left there, the preservation degree is almost 100%, and what secrets are contained in the immortal objects, this has always been our research content. ”

When it comes to [Deep Sea Country], even the people with a thousand faces are extremely cautious.

Generally speaking, objects that are tainted with the aura of calamity will quickly decay and become a puddle of black water.

After all, that kind of breath can't even be absorbed by the player, and it can't be saved, and everything in the Seven Continents is mutually exclusive, especially incompatible with essentia.

However, the internal structure of an item composed of essentia and magic particles cannot withstand the invasion of calamity, and one of the two will surely die.

However, the calamity items in the [Deep Sea Country] have been preserved to this day, without any harm and without dissipation, so you can see that the ruins of this ancient country are not ordinary.

But how can such a place be tested? Li Xiang was curious, he couldn't bring in a large number of calamities and xenomorphs to fight them, right?

Doing so is both dangerous and unreliable.

Except for Bai Lili, no one in the human race has been able to completely control the calamity.

Many people have the same thoughts as Li Xiang, quietly waiting for the explanation of the Thousand Faces.

"I'm sure many of you must be curious about how our trials work, and I'm going to make an official announcement for you now. The man with a thousand faces smiled faintly and clapped his hands, and there was a violent vibration in the huge hall.

Li wanted to stand firm, and felt that something seemed to be slowly bulging on the ground, and when the shaking was over, he found that the earth had cracked countless holes, like a mechanical device that had broken down the exterior, revealing the layers of precision parts inside.

In each crack, there is a huge capsule-like mechanism.

"This is Wessex's latest essentia transferor. It can project your essentia clones into the Deep Sea Realm. The Thousand Faces couldn't help but exclaim, "These essentia clones are connected to the goddess of calamity, and she will generate your essentia clones based on the scan results, and as long as the doppelganger dies, the connection here will be broken." ”

Hearing that there was also a goddess of calamity, the students were even more amazed.

Although the Goddess of Calamity system has always helped humans, it rarely takes the initiative to cooperate with humans, and occasionally interacts with trialists in the ultimate ranking, such as the last time Li Xiang and Ji Wanqing competed and cooperated on the same stage.

Having the Goddess of Calamity involved means that countless data from this trial will flood into her system, and in the future, when they become players, it will be more beneficial to judge and exchange.

"Also projected to the [Deep Sea Country] are the xenomorphs and calamities related to those calamity items! Yes, the projected creatures contain calamity, which means that you may unfortunately encounter calamity when facing enemies. The Man of Thousand Faces said coldly, "That's why I didn't recommend anyone who hasn't fought before to participate in this trial. Once killed by the projection calamity, your nerves may be severely damaged, and such injuries are most likely irreversible. ”

The essentia clone is not foolproof, it is connected to the essentia transferor nerve here, and once the nerve is damaged, it is very difficult to heal.

"This ......" some people are afraid, they are the best in the university, they have resources and talents that most people do not have, the college cup to win glory for the school, in the final analysis, it is for themselves, if the danger is too high, many people will definitely give up.

After all, in the past, the Academy Cup was just a student competition between schools, and no matter how dangerous it was, there were players watching, and there were few deaths.

"Of course, risk and reward are necessarily equal. This time, you will simulate the battle between the human camp and the calamity camp, which is something that countless sages have experienced, kill every xenomorph or calamity, you can get the corresponding calamity item fragment card, and if you have a complete set of cards, you can come out and exchange the corresponding items from us!"

"If you don't want that ill item, we can convert it into an equivalent human faction contribution and send it to your account through the Goddess of Calamity. Because it is a simulated actual battle, the exchange ratio in it is the most favorable. ”

The thousand-faced man looked at them with a smile and continued to tempt: "You should be very aware of how difficult it is to obtain the contribution of the human camp after entering the university, which is related to your future player career, this is the only good opportunity this time, and the future will be difficult." ”

There was an exclamation at the bottom, the contribution of the human camp is extremely useful to a cultivator, whether or not you can achieve the player sequence, with a large number of contributions, you and your family will definitely take off, and it is not impossible to join the family alliance.

If you are lucky enough to be a member of the Family Alliance, it will be a blessing for your descendants, so that your descendants will always have a higher starting line than most people.

The cruelty of the Seven Continents has been clear all the way.

To be able to rise from the ordinary, there is no one in the tens of millions of students who come here, and without resources and connections, it is equivalent to having no hope of rising.

The last time a good opportunity to earn Contribution from the Human Faction was during the Final Trial, and after that, many people have accumulated less than a fraction of the contribution in a year.

"We will not force you, those who are willing to participate, you can go down now and find a transfer device to enter, if you are not willing to participate, please return to the lounge, the Katas Zhaofei Committee will arrange for you to return to your respective schools without any psychological burden, we have communicated with your school about this matter, and they will respect your decision. The man with a thousand faces said lightly.

That's true, but giving up this trial will reduce the school's points by one point, which is very detrimental to the school's ranking.

Everyone hesitated for a long time, and slowly made their own decisions.

Several students from Lighthouse Academy walked up to Li Xiang, explained awkwardly, and left one after another.

There are still quite a few students who are reluctant to take the risk.

And several students at Lighthouse Academy are the only students in the Clock Tower Alliance University who have given up!

This made many people look disdainful, and more were secretly happy.

The Aruku Lighthouse Player University was upset in the first trial, and the terrifying points made many schools desperate, but this time almost everyone gave up, and it was a good opportunity to surpass it.

Feeling the sight of the surroundings, Li Xiang comforted the senior brother and sister a few times, and then went down the crack.

Horses of courses.

The students of Lighthouse Academy are indeed a lot weaker, and they are forced to participate in the Academy Cup, not to mention that it is so dangerous, it is normal to retreat.

Bai Micha said hello to him, came to a transferor beside him, smiled and took the lead in getting in.

The essentia doppelganger had a strong mechanical sensation, which made Li Xiang rise the urge to decompose, he suppressed this throbbing and got into the transfer, which was very spacious, the air conditioning temperature was suitable, and there was a large soft bed.

Li wanted to lie on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

[Neural connection activation, 10%...... 20%......】

[Neural connection completed, projection in ......]

[Main Li Xiang, the analysis is complete, and the data backup is ......]

[The projection is completed, connecting the deep sea country.] 】

There were all kinds of strange electronic sounds ringing in his head, and as his consciousness gradually woke up, when he woke up again, Li Xiang was stunned to find that he was in a small town covered with yellow sand.

Countless pieces of information poured into my mind, this was a small command of humanity guarding the borders, and he was the commander-in-chief of this small command.

On the sand table that occupies a third of the room, the rolling hills, the meandering river, and the scattered human settlements are scattered, precise, and lifelike.

If you look closely, the fortresses, defense towers, positions and other important templates are all embedded in the sand table one by one, and the small headquarters where they are located has a small red flag, which is located in the most dangerous territory.

Each human garrison emits a different light, representing different combat power and combat readiness.

There is no sense of disobedience.

Li Xiang seemed to have forgotten his identity at this moment, and naturally accepted the identity of the commander-in-chief of a small branch.

He was dressed in a pale yellow military uniform, carrying a black box in his hand, and at the moment he seemed to have forgotten the information about the trial in his mind.

I am a human commander, a soldier who resists the Calamity, and my goal is to expel the Calamity.

Li Xiang suddenly raised his head, his eyes were sharp, and on the sand table, a dark black arc of light gradually shone, slowly covering the forward position, and many fortress models were covered in it, falling into darkness.

"Pedal ......"

The sound of powerful military boots sounded outside the door.

"Commander-in-Chief, there is the latest combat readiness intelligence. A loud girl's voice came from the doorway.

Without waiting for Li Xiang to answer, the anxious girl soldier rushed into the command room.

"Commander-in-chief, take a look at this information. "The girl is his adjutant, and he has just been transferred from training at the military base," the damn group of black-blooded mongrels launched another massive attack. ”

"I'll see. Li Xiang took the combat readiness information, and it was bright red, just like the real-time display on the sand table, the aliens invaded their outermost positions on a large scale, and many of the surrounding positions sent letters for help.

"If this continues, in no more than three days, we will be surrounded by a large army of xenomorphs. The young adjutant grimaced, "What should I do, Commander-in-Chief." ”

"Don't worry, take me to see the warehouse, how many people are still there to fight?" Li Xiang said as she opened the door and walked outside.

"Yes. The young adjutant nodded and immediately walked to the front to lead the way.

When he opened the door, the gloomy weather made his heart linger.
