Chapter Seventy-Five: The Draw of Lots
A week later. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The Pro Contest begins.
In front of the square of the City Lord's Mansion, a large square large enough to accommodate a million spectators, was already filled with thousands of rings at this time.
Each ring has a shield that can withstand a gold-level hit, so spectators don't have to worry about being swept up in professional combat.
And the referee is none other than the top ten families in Noel City!
This competition adopts an elimination system, only the team that continues to win can be promoted, and all the teams that fail are directly eliminated, there is no second possibility!
First!
It is the dream shared by all professional teams.
Even a mercenary group as powerful as Bell can't turn a blind eye to the reward of the first, and the reward of tens of thousands of gold coins is quite tempting no matter which city it is.
You must know that 10,000 gold coins is half a year's operating income of the Bell Mercenary Group, and it is carried out at the risk of dying at any time.
Compared to the danger of participating in a tournament, it can be described as negligible.
Therefore, the first place in the tournament is, in a sense, something Simon is determined to win.
Not only did they have to win the first place, but they also had to finish in the top three! That's why they're divided into four squads.
There is no doubt that the first squad is the elite of the elite of the Bell Mercenary Regiment, consisting of Simon Silver Third Order, as well as the remaining four members of the Bronze First Order Peak.
The other three squads are slightly weaker.
However, each team's standard equipment is all Bronze Rank, but there is a gap in combat experience.
"Did you hear that, the conference changed the rules, as long as you enter the top ten, you can get a reward of 5,000 gold coins. ā
"5,000 gold coins, that's enough to live for five years!"
"I just hope that we don't draw the four squads of the Bell Mercenary Group, and we will definitely be able to enter the top ten with our strength!"
Although it was only 8:30 in the morning, the people participating in the professional tournament had already arrived, so the square was a little noisy, and if you looked around, you would find that there were people in addition to them!
In a corner of the square, Lin Bai and his party were impressively in the ranks.
Lin Bai stood on tiptoe, looked at the bustling crowd and couldn't help but take a breath: "Look at this scale, I'm afraid there are 50,000 contestants, right?"
"Lin boy, are you afraid?"
Hank carried the double axe and said with a big grin: "As long as we don't meet the people of the Bell Mercenary Group, it will be easy for us to enter the top ten." ā
"Humph!"
With a coquettish snort, Tina stared at Hank expressionlessly: "Hank, if we don't fix you for a few days, it's itchy again, our goal is to be the first!
"Sister...... , it's not right to lie. Xiao Yu put down the fingers in her mouth, pulled Latina's sleeve and said.
Tina turned her eyes to Vis to find some sense of identity, "Little magician, you say!Can we defeat the Bell mercenary group!Don't say it with a clear conscience~Ah!"
Tina's statement of 'conscience' is very serious, and the threat is self-evident.
Vess replied honestly, "Isn't it a matter of course for me to get the first place?"
"Huh?"
Tina was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You all learn hard from Weiss, especially you Hank, after so many years, the scar has forgotten the pain, I think it must be because I haven't repaired you for too long recently!"
"Vess!"
Hank shouted wrongedly: "I didn't expect you to be such a Vess, how can you lie in broad daylight!
Hearing this, Weiss said with some grievances: "But isn't it a matter of course that Lord Lin Bai is getting the first place?"
Forehead!
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and turned their eyes to Lin Bai, who was pretending to be looking around beside Weis.
Stare at~!
There was really no way to be stared at by a few people, so Lin Bai had to say embarrassedly: "First, we will definitely get the first." ā
Call~
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Tina patted Lin Bai's shoulder and said, "With your guarantee, we are much more relieved, it is not in vain that we have been acting for so long." ā
Perform?
Lin Bai was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he had fallen into the pit.
At this moment, a few people not far away pointed at Lin Bai and the others.
"Captain, is that them?"
"I won't admit that I am wrong, it is that they lost the face of our Bell Mercenary Group yesterday. ā
"Hmph, I wish I could match them in the preliminary round. ā
After speaking, a red-haired young man in black clothes walked over to Lin Bai and the others: "We are the fourth squad of the Bell Mercenary Regiment, you better pray that you don't meet me in the preliminary round, otherwise I will let you know that strength in Noel City is what determines everything, and your so-called background is not accessible in the competition!"
"You!"
Hank was about to speak, but the other party ignored Hank's expression at all, and returned to the team directly, and walked away with the team members giggling.
"Damn!"
Hank gritted his teeth and said, "Is the First Mercenary Regiment great?
Lin Bai patted Hank on the shoulder and signaled him not to get excited, "Anger is what the weak should do, as the strong, we just need to crush them with our strength! ā
Just then, the broadcast of the competition sounded.
"Participants in the preliminary round of the Pro Competition, please send a representative to the middle ring for the battle draw. ā
Tina smiled slightly, "Let's go, for those who look down on us, let's use our strength to blind their eyes!"
Following the flow of people, Lin Bai and his party walked towards the middle of the square.
After waiting in line for about 20 minutes, it was finally the turn of the Bauhinia Knights to draw lots.
Taking a deep breath, Tina walked towards the lottery box under the eager gaze of Lin Bai and the others.
As a female swordsman who stepped into the third order of silver, Tina's reputation was still quite loud in Knorr City, so everyone's eyes were focused on her.
However, mixed with the many eyes, two glances on the rostrum attracted Lin Bai's attention.
"Yalin, is everything all done?"
The majestic voice made Yalin, who was standing next to him and watching Tina's figure, tremble, and he quickly replied, "I have already followed your instructions and asked the Bell Mercenary Corps team to test their strength first." ā
"Yes. ā
The man replied softly, sat down in the center, closed his eyes and rested.
"Strange why Arin is here. ā
Lin Bai's keen eyes instantly saw Yalin standing on the rostrum.
"Woooooooooo......oo Lindbergh....... ā
A frustrated voice attracted Lin Bai's attention, but listening to the voice, he knew that it must be Tina.
He looked back at Tina, "Uh...... Captain, although I admit that you are beautiful, I am still quite troubled by the fact that you look at me with lustful eyes. ā
"Lin Bai, you give me death!"
Tina slammed the hilt of her sword to Lin Bai's head. After a while, he threw the notification card of the competition after the draw to Lin Bai, and said very shamefully: "I don't want to be eliminated in the first game, this game is all up to you." ā
Covering his head that had been knocked out, Lin Bai picked up the notification card, and his pupils shrank.
