Chapter 334: The Battle of Hercules
Everyone in the City of Light is busy, but Li Xiu, the main master, is idle all day long and has nothing to do.
Li Xiu fed the demon spirits every day, studied his symbiosis contract and cast spirits, and he had a relatively comfortable life recently.
Li Xiu's several demon spirits that he focused on cultivating have all improved to varying degrees.
After Li Qingyi came to the City of Light, she stayed at home every day, and she was still trying to improve the level of the Casting Spirit, looking at her posture, she planned to upgrade the Casting Spirit to the second form before the competition began.
Anyway, there is no hope of hitting the top few, this time except for Li Qingyi, Chu Jun and A Bandit did not participate, purely to serve the competition.
Li Xiu himself did not participate, and he needed to fill the scene when he was in the Demon Spirit Competition, otherwise as the organizer, he would not have participated.
This time, the Trialist Contest didn't need Li Xiu to fill the scene at all, so he didn't have any desire to participate.
Time passed, there were more and more trialists in the City of Light, the hotels were already full, and many residents of the City of Light had turned their houses into temporary homestays, but they still couldn't meet the needs of the trialists, and many trialists set up tents directly outside the city.
In order to ensure the personal safety of the trialists, Sha Chu asked Ye Xiyuan to send two teams of magic armorers to maintain law and order outside the city, taking turns patrolling outside the city.
There are also several teams of magic costumers in the city who are responsible for patrolling in turn, these magic costumers are all fish-man magic costumes brought out by Li Xiu from Changshengtian, and the magic costumes they wear are part of the new magic costumes of the Changshengtian Research Institute, and the other part is a new type of magic costumes sponsored by the Chu family.
Originally, Li Xiu wanted to order a batch of new magic costumes from the Chu family, but the old man Chu did not ask for Li Xiu's money, but made a request, and then gave this batch of new magic costumes for free.
But all the magic costumes provided by the Chu family have a big logo on them, and others know at a glance that this is a magic costume produced in White Night City.
If it were changed to another family, Li Xiu would naturally not agree, but he cooperated with the Chu family, and it was nothing to help White Night City do publicity.
"What is the City of Light doing, as a holy place for trialists, it is a little too embarrassing to use the magic master as a patrol."
"Look at that disguiser, he's so small, can't he be an adult?"
"Letting the Disguiser manage the Trialists is a shame for the City of Light, which is known as the Holy Land of the Trialists.
"That's ironic, isn't it?"
At first, the trialists were a little dissatisfied when they saw the Disguiser patrol.
However, when a trialist made trouble outside the city, a member of the Demon Costume Division directly burst out with S-level magic light, which immediately shocked those trialists.
Only then did they know that the patrols in the City of Light were all S-level magicians.
Meng Xiaotian was also outside the city, he was delayed this time because of something, he came too late, and he didn't find a place to live in the city, so he could only live outside the city.
Unexpectedly, this made him gain something, and he took a video of the Demon Costume Division's patrol shooting, re-edited it and uploaded it to the Internet.
This video quickly sparked heated discussions on the Internet, the patrol team composed of S-level magic armorers, which is really a very extravagant behavior outside the Immortal Heaven.
Meng Xiaotian specially photographed the logo of White Night City on the magic costume, and gave a close-up, so that people could know that these magic costumes were wearing the magic costumes of White Night City.
"Why haven't you seen these S-class magic suits? It looks like a new model, right?"
"White Night City actually has a new model of magic costume, why haven't you seen it on the official website? It can't be fake, right?"
"Don't guess, these are the latest types of magic costumes researched by White Night City, and the data hasn't been officially released yet."
"The City of Light was able to get so many new magic costumes that have not yet been marketed, it seems that it has an unusual relationship with White Night City."
"That's for sure, the number two person in the City of Light, Chu Jun, who presided over the Demon Spirit Contest last time, is the son of the Chu family in White Night City.
"Then it's no wonder, those new costumes look cool, and the patrolling costumes can't be from White Night City, right?"
「
I have a relative who is a high-level member of the White Night City Magic Costume Factory, and according to reliable sources, the performance of this new batch of magic suits is very powerful, much stronger than the average S-level magic suit......
The Trialist Contest hadn't started yet, and the new magic costume in White Night City had already sparked heated discussions, which made the old man of the Chu family happily close his mouth.
Under the watchful eye, the Trialist Contest finally arrived on the day of the opening ceremony.
Chu Jun is still the host this time, and like the last Demon Spirit Competition, the first scene of the opening ceremony is the appearance of the Eros Marksman.
The popularity of the Eros shooter is still very high outside, and he was recognized by many people when he appeared.
It's just that when they saw the Eros archer shoot an arrow into the sky, turning into a love of magic light in the sky, they were still shocked by that sight.
"I'll go, the Eros marksman has become stronger, and she seems to have been able to shoot only a love arrow, right? What's the matter with this arrow of love?"
"It's so gorgeous, I don't know which place of trials Eros Marksman is a demon spirit from the place of trial, so I really want one."
"This strength should be S-class, right?"
"Eros Marksmen are so strong, I don't know how strong the Black Death King, Jedi Knight, and Fuyukihime are now, I really want to see them soon."
"Then you're going to be disappointed, the Trialist Competition, the Lord of Light didn't participate.
"Ah! It's not like I can't see the Black Death Lord and the Jedi, I'm here for them."
In the midst of the discussion of the trialists, the performance of the opening ceremony also officially began, and unexpectedly, except for the Eros marksman, there was no demon spirit again, and the performance was only some singing and dancing, interspersed with a lot of advertisements.
Even the actors who performed on the stage carried advertisements for major brands.
"I'll go, the City of Light is crazy about money, is this okay?"
"Is this going to be a game, or is it going to be an advertisement?,
"The City of Light is not the City of Light it used to be."
"Refund!"
……
Li Xiu, who was sitting in the VIP room, was also a little embarrassed when he saw these performances, looked at Sha Chu and asked, "Have we received so many advertisements?"
"There's a lot more to come." Sha Chu nodded.
"This scolding is too fierce, can you remove some of it?" Li Xiu also felt that this advertisement was too much, a bit excessive.
Sha Chu didn't say anything, just handed Li Xiu the details of the advertising fees and the amount of liquidated damages given by the major companies: "City Lord, which one do you want to withdraw?"
Li Xiu took a closer look and said with a wry smile, "I think I can still hold on, let the family be angry."
Finally, the opening ceremony ended, and Chu Jun announced the schedule and the list of contestants with a scolding voice.
The first match of the tournament is a power match called the Battle of Hercules, and it is a match of strength to win and lose.
People are curious, how to distinguish who has the most strength, and let the trialists lift weights?
With such curiosity, people still came to the arena early the next morning to watch the battle of Hercules.
When people arrived at the arena, they found that in the middle of the arena, there was a pile of unknown objects, covered with red silk, and they did not know what they were.
Chu Jun walked out at this time, stood next to the big guy, took the megaphone and said, "Everyone must be curious, what is in here? Don't worry, I'll find out to you shortly."
As he spoke, Chu Jun directly stretched out his hand and pulled the red silk cloth down, revealing the contents inside.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the appearance of that thing clearly.
"Is this a bulldozer?"
"The battle of Hercules is not going to be a battle between trialists and bulldozers, right?
"What the hell is this, it's too perfunctory to let the trialist and the bulldozer compare their strength, right?"
Everyone who came was disappointed with the design of the City of Light this time, and if it was really a comparison of strength, they might as well look at weightlifting.
The audience's reactions seemed to be expected by Chu Jun, and after the discussion became quieter, Chu Jun became bigger
The voice controlled the scene, and said with a smile: "Let me introduce it to you, this is an important instrument of the battle of Hercules, we call it the Hercules machine."
"Don't worry, I can tell you with certainty that this is not a bulldozer, but a strength tester. Chu Jun's words finally quieted the scene.
People are curious about how this bulldozer-like thing is going to test its strength.
Chu Jun walked in front of the Hercules machine, then moved his body and punched the baffle in front of the Hercules machine.
Boom!
Chu Jun's fist hit the baffle, the baffle only shrank slightly, and the whole machine did not move, but on the top of the cockpit glass where the machine looked like a cockpit, a row of jumping numbers appeared, and the number finally stopped above 22.
"As you can see, when this Hercules machine is hit hard, it will show the amount of strength it has received, and the higher the value, the stronger the contestant. The Trialist can use the Hercules Machine on his own, or he can use a Talent Skill, a Symbiotic Pact, a Parasitic Pact, or a Demon Spirit, as long as it is the Trialist's things, but it is forbidden to use any other tools. Today is the preliminary round of the Battle of Hercules, and the rules are that players with more than 20 strength can enter the next round of the competition, so now please enter the soup. 「
In this way, the audience finally got a little interested, and they all looked at the first trialist to enter.
Li Xiu, Li Qingyi and the others also looked at the Hercules machine, this is an instrument specially made by Sha Chu to the research institute, although the material itself is not particularly good, but after design, it can withstand the power of the spirit casting level head-on, and it will not be destroyed.
Of course, there is still a limit to the Hercules machine, and if it exceeds the limit that the internal mechanical kinetic energy conversion of the Hercules machine can bear, the Hercules machine will still be damaged.
The first trialist to enter was Xiao Er.
Xiao Er is dressed like a noble prince today, and he looks good, when he appeared, he directly brought a group of demon spirits, and the pomp and circumstance of hugging people were stunned.
"So many demons...... This guy has a mine at home, right?"
"You're really right, people do have mines at home, he is the world's largest diamond group, Xiao Er, the second son of the Xiao family of the Disha Group."
"This is a serious eight hundred Diamond King Lao Wang, no wonder there are so many demon spirits.
When Xiao Er came to the Hercules machine, he didn't do it himself at all, he just said "go", and a demon spirit came out of the queue and came to the Hercules machine.
The demon spirit, dressed in blue armor and like a giant warrior, raised a bucket-shaped fist and slammed it into the Hercules.
The baffle of the Hercules machine is like a car shock absorber, and it is directly retracted backwards, obviously shrinking a distance.
The values on the Hercules screen immediately flashed rapidly, and finally stopped at 107.
"Is that all there is to it? Forget it, let's be ruthless next time. "Xiao Er left triumphantly.
The next trialists on the field were much worse, and there were several in a row that failed to reach 20 points.
The worst one was only 9 points, and the others were only a dozen points, which made the audience who originally thought the game was simple immediately realize that the game of this Hercules machine was not simple at all.
Fortunately, a few people have also passed the level, and as the game progresses, there are also some more powerful trialists, but at most they have reached more than eighty points, except for Xiao Er, there is not even one who has exceeded a hundred.
"It's too weak, it's boring, is this the level of the current trialist? There is not even anyone worthy of a fight." After Xiao Er's game ended, he ran to Li Xiu's VIP room, with his legs on the coffee table, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked lonely.
"I'm going to get ready for the race." When it was about Li Qingyi's turn to appear, Li Qingyi got up and prepared to go out to prepare.
"Is this beauty going to compete too?" Xiao Er peeked at Li Qingyi, who was sitting next to Li Xiu, from time to time just now, and when he saw her saying that she was going to compete, he hurriedly asked.
"What's the problem?" Li Qingyi asked.
"You're Li Xiu's girlfriend
Is it? "Xiao Er's brain circuits are very amazing, and he suddenly asked such a question.
"It's not." Li Qingyi said immediately.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Xiao Er asked again.
"Nope." Li Qingyi shook his head slightly.
"That'll do." Xiao Er took out a demon spirit ring and threw it to Li Qingyi: "This is for you, young master, the S-level demon spirit ring I just bought,
You can definitely get past the first round with ease."
"If you have good intentions, you don't need this." Li Qingyi put the Demon Spirit Ring on the coffee table in front of Xiao Er, and then turned around and walked out.
After Li Qingyi walked out, Xiao Er put down his legs, leaned over to Li Xiu's side and said, "Li Xiu, this beauty is good, what is the origin?"
"My men." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Honestly, does she have anything to do with price? It's okay when I don't say anything, it's okay I'm going to make a move. Xiao Er said.
"I advise you not to do it." Li Xiu said.
"I see, when I didn't say it, I don't have any advantages other than being better, but I still understand that my friend's wife can't be bullied." Xiao Er sat back and said with some regret, "It's really rare to see such a beauty, but it's a pity that I'm late."
Li Xiu smiled and didn't explain anything.
Xiao Er saw that after Li Qingyi came on the field, he didn't summon anything, so he walked in front of the Hercules machine by himself, and it seemed that he was planning to do it himself.
"Li Xiu, it's not me talking about you, but you are also the city lord of the City of Light, why don't you get a better demon spirit for your girlfriend, let her do it herself, it's too shameless." If I had such a beautiful girlfriend, the demon spirit would pick her choice. Xiao Er crossed his legs, picked up a glass of wine, and said while drinking.
"She doesn't like to use demons." Li Xiu said casually.
"Don't be stupid, women are like this, they say no, but they are actually waiting for you to send it. Such a beauty, if you don't know how to cherish it, and you don't know which bastard snatched it away when you look back, it's too late for you to cry. Xiao Er said.
Li Xiu was noncommittal, just looked at Li Qingyi in front of the Hercules machine.
Li Qingyi didn't even summon the symbiosis contract, but just stretched out his palm and pressed it on the baffle of the Hercules machine.
Burst!
Xiao Er, who had just taken a sip of wine, saw the numbers on the screen beating wildly, and finally stopped above 110, almost choking to death, and squirted out a mouthful of wine.
"I'll go, what's going on with you? Your broken machine has a black box operation, right? Why did she touch it and it was 110, and my light-based demon spirit only hit 107 ...... just now."
Xiao Er's eyes widened as he looked at Li Xiu and asked.
"Is the light base strong?" Li Xiu looked at Xiao Er with a smile and said.
"Of course the light base is strong.... Wait.... You don't think ...., your girlfriend is a light-based trialist, right? Xiao Er's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Li Xiu.
"Pretty much." Li Xiu secretly said in his heart, "Why not stop the light base.
"Light-based girlfriend..... You're really out of shit luck.... I'm just ...... now Forget it..... "Xiao Er is depressed and doesn't want to speak.
The next contestants are also not distinctive, Xiao Er may be depressed, or he is not interested in male trialists, so he has not spoken much.
Li Xiu watched it with relish, and after a while, he saw an old man on the field, and the old man didn't summon anything, just took a horse step and punched the Hercules machine hard, and even hit the data of 110.
"This game is just a little interesting now, I didn't expect that old man to be quite capable." Xiao Erhun said nonchalantly.
But then three more people hit the data of 110, which surprised Xiao Er: "You can compete in the Trialist Competition, there are so many light-based levels to participate."
Li Xiu hadn't said anything, but Xiao Er suddenly stood up, staring at a new female trialist with bright eyes.
That's it...... Finished...... I played......
I've found true love...... How can there be such a charming woman in the world...... I must let her be my girlfriend...... Li Xiu...... This is a contest you organized, you must have her contact information, right, give it to me. Xiao Er exclaimed exaggeratedly.
Li Xiu glanced at the female trialist in the field, and after seeing clearly that the female trialist was actually Wan Chaochun, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This.... I'm afraid it won't work......
"This.... It's also yours......" Xiao Er looked at Li Xiu in a daze.
"This is my sister I recognize." Li Xiu said.
"Godsister...... I understand...... Xiao Er sat down on the sofa dejectedly, and sighed, "Could it be that God sees me as too good, and can't bear to let me waste my youth, so I have to shine on the way of demon spirit control?"
Xiao Er was sighing with emotion, and suddenly heard an earth-shattering sound in the arena.
