Chapter 454: A Different Picture

Today is the 10th day of the competition, and it is also the most crucial day. Regardless of the grade level, the participants will run out of supplies prepared for them by the organizers on this day, and they will have to rely on the various experiences they have learned in the field these days to find food and water sources on their own to move on. At the same time, even if the competitors are not in the same position as they are in the same position, they are not far from the finish line, and it is time for the final sprint.

Due to the unprecedented mode of survival in the wilderness, and the use of modern communication technology to broadcast the actions of the participating students to the whole continent, the large-scale event that used to belong only to the teachers, students, mage associations and nobles of various countries has become a national entertainment, so it has achieved an unexpected and great success.

The Mage Guild spent a lot of money to build giant crystal screens in the most lively squares in major cities, and sent many mages in the association to serve as manpower transfer stations for magic video signals, and finally secretly followed the students as guards and were responsible for secretly taking pictures...... I mean, the real-time images from the masters of photography were presented in front of the public's eyes - this was also the first live broadcast of the whole continent in Zollivan, which immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

The magic crystal screen costs a lot of money, plus the cost of sending people to work and all kinds of other small equipment, if it weren't for the investment and sponsorship of various groups led by the three empires, I'm afraid that the Mage Association would not be able to afford the cost of this competition. And the video in the contest was apparently seen by ordinary people as a celebration. If you really want to start paying like you forced a box on the head of your TV to charge for it. I'm afraid that not many people will.

So how exactly does the Mage Guild recover its costs and make a profit?

It's simple, and it's disgusting - since the Mage Guild is responsible for organizing and airing all the footage, they use this exclusive advantage to insert commercials in the middle when switching between images of students from other grades or even different houses in the same grade......

All the merchant groups swarmed towards the gate of the Mage Guild's headquarters as if they were crazy, waving golden tickets, blocking the nearby streets every day. It is said that the original accountants of the Mage Guild all fell to the ground foaming at the mouth after only three days of work, so that they had to temporarily hire a dozen accountants to cope with it.

Whether it is in terms of reform or business, the competition planned by the Mage Association has undoubtedly been successful. But the heads and brains of the high-ranking beards counted the money with golden eyes, but they ignored the undercurrents that lurked beneath the surface of this great scene.

But before that, as always, today's story also starts with the daily life of the soy sauce department after school.

Chasi carefully hugged the shivering Vakis. Raising his hand, he made a driving motion to Sun Xiang, who was full of grievances and helplessness next to him, and then looked at Sophia who was walking in front and said, "What are you up to?" Today is the key, you don't go to the city square to watch Alicia's situation, but let everyone go to the ministry to gather what to do? Even Vaqis and the others were dragged over......

Sophia turned her head, elegantly unfolded her fan, covered her mouth, and smiled: "Well, everyone will know when they go." I'm very kind and kind enough to have a big surprise for everyone. ”

"I'm sorry, but I suddenly felt a little anxious. Denise, Vera, and Lisa in the back suddenly said in unison. "Where is the restroom nearby?"

Looking at the trio of rotten girls who tried to urinate, Chasi couldn't help but cover his forehead and sweat and said: "Although I know that you just want to flash people, and to be honest, I also have plans to turn around and escape, but don't you think that this appearance of shouting out word-for-word lines at the same time is more like a pre-rehearsed comedy!?"...,

"It's too fake. Yuege, who was holding the book, said pertinently.

The mercury lamp didn't pay attention to these girls, but stared at Sophia hanging in the air with a suspicious face and said: "The bad water in your stomach is three points more than that undisciplined Lori, and any squatting in the toilet will cause serious pollution, and the woman will kindly prepare a surprise for everyone? ”

Sophia just smiled indifferently at the little puppet's words and didn't care too much, and then put on a crying expression to cover most of her face, revealing a pair of big teary eyes, and said pitifully: "People really just prepared a surprise and didn't make any pranks, believe me, okay?"

"I see, during this year's spring trial, did you use this expression to deceive the single-celled Ilya, who was not afraid of a strong enemy to protect you?" ”

I told you not to be on the female frequency anymore!

Sophia choked to death with a mouthful of saliva, stroked her towering chest and tried to breathe a few times before recovering: "Sure enough, I'm still more used to Elicia's sharp but not poisonous complaints." I can't stand your complaints. Well, to be honest, I'm really not going to fix it this time, it's a surprise. ”

Karina, who had been following Sophia, was about to ask for an explanation, but the pink princess put away her folding fan and put it on Sakura's lips and shook her head with a slight smile.

If you say it in advance, it's not a surprise.

The group shouted noisily and soon came to the empty old building in the back mountain - most of the students chose to crowd the square after school, and the back mountain, which was not many people coming, was even more silent at this time.

But Grana was surprisingly standing at the door of the old building waiting for everyone.

"How's it going, are you ready?" asked Sophia, "don't tell me you didn't buy it, or I'll let them go around tomorrow." ”

There are a few people who don't sell face when you use your name as a princess of the empire to do things. Grana quietly sweated and saluted Sophia: "Of course, the person in charge of the other party's store personally brought someone to the door to install, debug, and promised to repair and replace. Before leaving, he held my hand with tears in his eyes and said welcome to visit next time. Your Royal Highness the Princess, you have asked me to make these few requests are so thoughtful. It turns out that large items can also be bought like this. ”

Sophia chuckled, "Are you sure he's so excited that he tears up rather than his heart hurting so much that he almost cried?" Although she said that this way of service is beneficial to both merchants and buyers. But I still haven't been able to figure out what she means. I took the opportunity to practice it today, and it doesn't seem to be very good. ”

Because in the eyes of the merchants of Drowlivan, they are only selling the goods themselves. Mercury Lamp shook his head helplessly: "Don't worry about that Lori's advanced consciousness for now." Let's hurry up and let everyone see your so-called surprise. ”

"Ah, yes. Hearing this, Sophia hurriedly walked to the door. "Come in, everybody, I'm sure you're going to enjoy this thing. ”

Everyone followed Sophia into the department, and then they all froze in place with wide eyes, and were collectively petrified.

On the old wall on the left, which had been repainted, there was a huge crystal screen that would make all the home theater monitors cry to the sunset. Almost an entire wall!

Sophia gracefully walked to the wall or the middle of the screen, lifted her skirt with both hands, bowed slightly to everyone, and said with a smile: "This is what I commissioned Grana to buy, from today onwards, everyone can watch the competition without going to the crowded square." How's that, it's a surprise, isn't it?"...,

"It's really a bunker!" Li Huayin suddenly flew towards the pink princess with a tiger pounce, "It is worthy of Her Royal Highness the princess of the Roland Empire." Sure enough, it's not bad money at all! Thank you so much...... Oh!"

"I know you're thrilled and have a belly full of words of thanks. Sophia looked at Li Huayin, who was struck by Granna's palm and stepped on under her feet, in the shape of mosquito coils, opened the folding fan and half-covered her mouth and snickered, "But this must not be a reason for you to take the opportunity to hug me." ”

After such a stir, everyone also came back to their senses, decisively ignored the large cockroach on the ground, and then looked for a place to sit in front of the screen with excitement on their faces. Only Icarus remained silently - Lori told her to listen to the mercury lamp when she left, so the Queen of the Sky became a temporary ...... Between the mercury lamp and the night, the referee of the medieval warhammer match and the keeper of the lollipop as a prize of the game, day and night.

A beautiful and magical alchemy doll does not go to the figure conference to win the crown, a powerful and evil black dragon does not kidnap the princess who is around her, and leads to countless brave people who do not know whether to live or die, a noble and holy angel does not go to the Holy See to accept the worship by the way, and by the way, he uses his strategic-level chest to attract a large number of new believers, and even plays a table game in the room to compete for lollipops, do you dare to be more boring!?

After Sophia also sat down on the couch, Grana turned on the screen with everyone's nervous and expectant eyes.

"[Beep-] brand foot gas water, so that you no longer have to experience the embarrassing taste of scratching the boots. From now on, every day shines!"

"[Beep--] brand acne cream, eradicate small acne on the face, let you dare to raise your head with confidence in front of your loved ones!"

"[Beep--] brand shampoo, get rid of dandruff troubles, even the noble, mysterious and gorgeous pure black dress can be worn!

Grana, who was covered in cold sweat, saw very clearly that countless black lines were hanging down on the heads of the people opposite.

The mercury lamp head that was playing chess with the night with an indifferent face said without raising his head: "It's nothing.,It's just that when I turn on the TV at the broadcast time of the animation I want to watch, I see that it's not the beginning of the OP.,It's just a normal situation like a promotional advertisement that seems to last for a long time while doing experiments and interviewing users.,Lori, who often gets up in the middle of the night to watch raw meat, has encountered this kind of situation many times.,You don't need to care.。 ”

Fortunately, the ad didn't last long, and the screen changed to an image of a wild sceneβ€”three students in the center who looked cautious but still covered in dirt and weeds looked very messy, and the upper right showed the house and grade they belonged to.

"It happens to be the first year of the Garden of Hope. Wait a minute. Why are there only three of them!?" Chasi immediately exclaimed in consternation, "What about Imrise?"

Everyone hurriedly searched with wide eyes, and finally found the beautiful blonde little Lori who was protected by them in the middle of the three clay figures. She had a small staff in her hand that she had received from Alicia, but it was not as polished as her companions nearby. Although the other three around are all boys, plus her status as the eldest princess of the Birea Empire. It is not surprising that it is so meticulously protected; I'm afraid that her hand is completely different from her own sister's......

Cooking techniques.

Through the voyeurism of the previous days. I mean, the people of the Western Continent have had the privilege of enjoying the scenery of the strange and dangerous adventure area, learning a lot about life in the wilderness, and seeing with their own eyes the battles with wild beasts and even monsters that can only be learned from novels or troubadours. However, what people are most concerned about is a certain queen Lori who left the country and ran to the Garden of Hope to play her daily life, and the people around her who are close to her. ...,

Imrith naturally received a lot of attention as Alicia's sister. Unlike her sister, who is good at strategy and command, Imrise, who is gentle and kind and lovely, is completely a soft girl, and even occasionally makes some mistakes. Thanks to her family, Xiao Ise has a wealth of knowledge about survival in the wild, and she is also ingenious in cooking, successfully fascinating three male teammates and tens of millions of lolicenson, and has a large number of fans.

It's no surprise that her teammates would protect Imrith in this way in order to eat hot food in the middle of nowhere.

For technical reasons. There is no sound in the video from the Mage Guild, but a certain master has thought of a way to subtitle the bottom of the screen to introduce the students' actions and surroundings to the audience - the mercury lantern is estimated that if his unscrupulous loli master knows, he will definitely shout "barrage" and "crossing" everywhere.

"They look like they're going to set up camp, are they going to leave so much today?" the subtitles on the screen scrolled slowly, "No, only one boy stayed behind to tidy up the camp." The other three all left. (Silence) Her Highness Imrith is instructing her teammates to collect edible fruits. I see, they deliberately stopped to replenish their food. ”

Sophia shook her folding fan lightly and said, "There's nothing wrong with Imrise's side." Unlike Elicia, her cooking skills can definitely keep herself and her teammates full of physical strength in the wild, and she is so much ahead of others that as long as she doesn't meet a certain curious tentacle monster boss, she will definitely be able to enter the finals. By the way, Karina, what are you doing there shaking your feet? (Covering his mouth and laughing) Is it possible that you want to see the second grade group sooner?"

"There is no such thing, Your Royal Highness Princess, you are really funny, Fabiano's kind of guy, I don't care about his life or death at all! I am just paying attention to the performance of the second-year student team of the Garden of Hope as the representative of the eliminated Class B!"

"Oh, hehehe, I didn't mention a boy's name the whole time?"

"U, Ulusai!"

Sophia didn't tease Karina, who had a red bun face, but looked up at the wall clock and said, "It's almost time, let's see what Elysia's girl is burning today." ”

Thinking back to the other day, even the staff of the Mage Guild, who was in charge of editing the subtitles, couldn't help but admire the bold behavior of Elysia's style who led the three teams to forcibly climb and occupy the pumice rock to collect firewood and ingredients, and the cooking technique of little Lori, which opened the eyes of everyone on the continent, everyone present couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a while.

After the advertisement. The screen jumps to the second-grade group. The first to appear is naturally Alicia's team, which has attracted a lot of attention from the world.

Still a unique view of the woods above the Gobi at the bottom, Elijah and William, who were leading the way, were holding a map to confirm the direction, while Alicia was sitting bored on the rocks dangling her legs. Fabiano, who happened to be caught nearby drinking water, made Karina scream in surprise, and then immediately pretended that nothing had happened when everyone turned to look at her.

Only Sophia stared at the screen with a strange expression, but then laughed self-deprecatingly and said softly, "Well, how is it possible." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”I'm the dividing lineβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"I have a very important question. Fabiano, who was back to back with Elysia in his staff, swallowed hard.

"Do you have to ask now?" said Alysia when she heard this, "You don't look around you either!"

William, who was in the middle, moved half a step back without a trace, so that he could protect her by keeping a distance from Lori, and by the way, he also listened to Fabiano's questions.

"I remember the game rules commentator called Ramion told us before we set off that there will be a level 4 master behind each team, right?" Fabiano said with a frenzied face, "That's my question. Why didn't those people show up in the current situation, which was dangerous from any point of view!? Are they unscrupulous mercenaries who only take money to line up and make up numbers, and if the war really starts, they will be the first to run for their lives!?"

On the layers of pumice rocks, strong blue-skinned men with five big and three thick blue skins holding various murder weapons stared at this group of young men and girls who had just climbed to the bottom of the pumice rock and had not even stood firm on their heels, and surrounded them condescendingly. Except for a certain bold blonde Lori, the other three girls were so frightened that they hid behind the boys and shivered, and the boys also looked nervous as if they were facing a big enemy.

It stands to reason that Mona should not have known that Alicia and the others had been in contact with Mindal, let alone the true plans of their group. But Alysia and the others were still in the Draenei territory, and they were surrounded by Mona's forces.

And...... Sophia: The picture they see is clearly different from what is actually happening right now! If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
