Chapter 416 The Situation Becomes Increasingly Chaotic
() One hour after the start of the game, all forces met on a narrow road, and battles broke out one after another in the city.
But at this moment, something new happened in the center of the lost city...
Here, it was originally an open square with stones on the ground. Now, it has become the most polluted area in the entire city.
The pungent smell of sulfur filled the air, obsidian debris covered the ground like dust, and hills made of bones could be seen everywhere...
In the middle of the square, there stood a huge door. The door was more than ten meters high and about four meters wide. One side of the door was shrouded in a strange dark mist, and the other side was closed.
On the upper side of the door frame, there are five magic arrays of different colors, arranged in the five corners of a five-pointed star. The five formations are all painted with obscure divine patterns, but at this moment, these five talismans are all dim...
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound.
The light on the magic sigil completely dissipated and shattered...
The door...opened...
On the other side of the Devil's Gate is a terrifying scorched earth.
*The scene on this side of the city is purgatory on earth, and the area opposite the door... is the mainland of purgatory.
At this time, there was a vague black figure slowly walking towards the door connecting the two spaces.
The monsters in the city bred by evil forces, the time officials of the Lord of Time, the jurors of the Court of Truth, including the derivatives... all sensed the approach of a powerful existence at this moment.
Even if it is just "close", it is enough to make those low-level monsters frightened. Countless heart-rending screams and frenzied roars echoed throughout the city, all telling of a kind of despair.
The monarch who symbolizes the end of the world has arrived in this land...
…………
Meanwhile, the real world.
Somewhere in Corpse Knife Studio.
"What? You're reporting this to me after it's already over?" The person who spoke was the director of their game department, who was scolding a staff member with a deep frown.
"What's wrong?" By coincidence, the manager who was left on duty tonight also passed by the corridor, holding a cup of coffee from the vending machine. "What's going on?"
The supervisor glanced at the staff member, sighed, and raised a paper form in his hand. "See for yourself. This is the monitoring data returned from 'Weiwang' two minutes ago."
The manager took the piece of paper and looked at it while drinking coffee. He almost spit out the coffee: "What's going on? Didn't he take his medicine?"
The staff member showed an innocent expression: "He said he ate it."
"He 'said' he ate?" the supervisor immediately repeated in a questioning tone.
The staff also got a little angry and glared at the supervisor: "What else is going on? Do you want us to go to the break room and watch him eat? Feed him?"
"You..." The supervisor was choked and speechless. In fact, he knew very well that he couldn't blame anyone else for this matter. Entering the cabin without taking medicine must be his own problem.
"Okay, okay." The manager is a sensible person. He understands the supervisor. When this guy encounters any bad situation, the first thing he thinks of is to shirk responsibility instead of solving the problem. Second-rate middle and low-level managers often have this A common problem, "If Wei Wang threw away the medicine and lied about taking it, then no one can do anything about it. We couldn't see any abnormalities in the readings when he logged into the space. Only he entered the script, and the monitor showed Only then will the discrepancy data come out." He looked at the staff member and said, "You discovered it very quickly. Very good. Go back to your job first."
The staff member turned around and left after hearing this, and was glared at by the supervisor before leaving.
The manager then said to the supervisor: "This matter can be big or small... I have to call my boss and ask him how to deal with it. You can go back to work."
"Um...Okay." The supervisor responded and left.
The manager looked at the other person's back and snorted coldly: "Huh... trash, I'll let you go tomorrow." He looked down at the form again, thought for a few seconds, and said in deep thought, "Should this kid... deserve it?" Maybe he was stimulated by something and had a sudden thought... I want to compete openly and fairly in the finals..." He shook his head, "Do you really think of yourself as a so-called 'master'? Hmph... if you really are? Will a star player with such strength still hang out with our Corpse Knife..."
…………
The game world, somewhere in the north of the city.
"We meet again." [Uncle Good-for-nothing] held a cigarette in his mouth, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at [Corpse Knife King] in front of him and said, "You were really decisive in withdrawing last time."
"I won't run away this time." When Corpse Sword spoke for the king, he had already sacrificed the painted halberd, "Let's decide the winner!"
"Oh?" The good-for-nothing uncle raised his hand, pushed his sunglasses down a little, looked directly into the other person's eyes and said, "Hmm... his eyes are good, he looks completely different from last time." He then put them on again. Good sunglasses, snorted coldly, "Could it be that you have taken some kind of 'new medicine', so your confidence has doubled?"
"Whatever you think." Corpse Sword King replied, "I don't want to explain anything."
"Okay, let's fight." The good-for-nothing uncle stretched out his hands from his pockets, "Whether it's an average player or a seeded player, it's all the same to me..."
[Tense, tense, tense, one side is watching with eagerness, and the other is waiting for an opportunity. 】
[The grudges of the past, the meeting today, and a fight to the death are inevitable. 】
…………
On the other side, somewhere east of the city.
Here, there is a "blood lake" covering an area of about three hectares. The lake water is in a boiling state all year round, so the temperature in the surrounding area is also very high.
In the lake, thick plasma and many unknown liquids merged together, like a lake of extremely disgusting cocktails. No one knows how this lake was formed, and no one cares...
Due to the existence of this lake, the visual range in the nearby area is good. As long as the reconnaissance expertise is D level or above, you can see the other side of the lake at a glance.
Therefore, there was a scene like this... a total of twelve players, facing each other across the bank.
These twelve people naturally did not stand in a circle around the lake, but in groups of three or three, each occupying one side.
The three people in the east are [Drunken and feeling sad], [Sashimi], and [Wu Sheng Shen Xuan].
The three people in the west are [Vishnu], [Brahma], and [Yama].
There are three people from the south, [Wu Swordsman], [Kuaizong Sword Shadow], and [Laughing and Asking the Sky].
The three people in the north, [It’s really hard to name], [It’s really hard to name], [It’s really hard to name].
This is undoubtedly a wonderful scene, with masters belonging to the four societies of Order, Gods, Jianghu, and Ice Emperor - "Drunk Life and Dreams of Death", "Four Gods of the Gods", "Sword Laughter" and "Difficult to Name". The four groups came together once in a lifetime. Although [Mengjingzen] and [Shiva] were not present, the lineup was already gorgeous enough.
Here, I have to focus on the difficult-to-name trio...
Some people may think that putting these three venomous Cowherd members together with the previous three groups lowers the overall quality. actually not……
Let's take a look at the game history of the three of them and it will be clear at a glance:
First of all, these three are in a very small, fledgling studio, and "Scaryland" is the first game they have come into contact with as professional gamers. Under this premise, they actually became famous and well-known players in less than two months.
Secondly, what makes them famous is not their one-on-one ability, but their strength in 3V3 group battles (Cangling Lunjian Tokibe once revealed depressingly that these three people always left him behind to play killing games)...
Third, they are good at team battles, and they have already reached the top fifty in the peak competition that tests their one-on-one strength.
If these three points are not enough to prove their strength, then please take a look at their funny nicknames. To be honest... I can't remember who is who... so I distinguished them by their hairstyles and nicknames: [It's really hard to pick a name] (nickname, bald head); [It's really hard to name] (Old name, afro) ) and [It’s really hard to name] (real brother, mohawk).
This kind of ID that you may not remember even if you intend to remember it can actually become popular in the game, which is also evidence of their strength...
"The situation is a little complicated..." Xiao Ming said while looking at the lake.
"It seems that in this finals, there are many people who take 'finding fellow club members as a priority' as their strategic move." Brother Zhen continued.
"That's right... we are smart, and others are not stupid either." Laotori shrugged and continued: "Since it is a points system, first find a partner you can trust, and try to get kill points together as much as possible, and then we can deal with the other players. Then solve the internal problems... This is a normal strategy. "
"Well..." Xiao Ming continued, "The problem right now is... we have entered the enemy's sight, and there are three different groups of enemies. What should we do... should we take action?" He paused, "If you want to Let’s start, which side should we attack first?”
"Don't be kidding." Lao Daoyi said, "In this situation, attacking first is almost like committing suicide. For example...A launches an attack on B, while C and D are watching the fight. In the middle or half of the fight between A and B, After the fight is over, either C or D can come and reap the benefits.”
"But how do you know that C and D won't fight?" Brother Zhen said, "If C or D kills each other before A and B can decide the winner, they can turn around and attack A and B in time."
"But if A and B finish fighting first, the winning side can turn around and sneak attack C and D who are fighting." Nickname continued.
"Then how about we try to negotiate, and A and B join forces to kill C in one fell swoop..." Laotori hypothesized again.
Brother Zhen nodded: "But the trust between A and B is unreliable. It's hard to say what kind of changes will happen during the battle..."
"Hmm..." All three of them had troubled expressions on their faces, tilting their heads in thought.
On the other side of the lake, a young man with a pot head (Sashimi) put on an embarrassed face and said to the two companions beside him, "The gods and the rivers and lakes are discussing tactics. Over there with the Ice Emperor... I can't listen. Understand."
Wu Shi Shen Xuan asked: "What? Are they speaking foreign languages?"
"Yeah...ABCD or something..." Sashimi said, "It feels like...they have been lost in some extremely boring and impossible multiple reasoning." (To be continued.)
