【014】Preview Match
Even if you knew it early, it would be wisest to leave at that time.
Zhang Sen didn't think about it anymore, after all, there was no point in thinking about it now, he continued to observe the riders who stayed.
"Zhang Sen?"
At this time, the familiar voice sounded again.
Zhang Sen looked up and saw Raphael raise his hand, and then slowly stepped forward.
"How did you become like this?" Raphael looked at Zhang Sen and asked in surprise.
He once went to Zhang Sen's shop, and then was intimidated by the price of those systems, but at least he had seen the normal version of Zhang Sen, so he was a little surprised that Zhang Sen became the Q version.
"It's hard to put into words, what about you? Also here to participate in the competition? Zhang Sen said perfunctorily.
Raphael didn't ask, nodded and said, "Yes, I also want to try my luck." ”
"Did you get any message?" Zhang Sen narrowed his eyes and immediately asked.
Raphael shook his head and said, "No, there is no news, but many people have noticed that something is abnormal, and several old antiques have sent people to participate in the competition." ”
"Antique, what antique?" Zhang Sen asked puzzled.
Raphael explained: "Under normal circumstances, only the younger generation will participate in the speed competition, and the seniors of the older generation will not care about this competition at all, but this time many people have quietly sent people to participate in the competition, so it is rumored among the adventurers that the prizes of this competition may be very unusual, and the organizers obviously want to do something, so many people come to participate in the competition, and the number of people in this competition may be dozens of times that of before." ”
Obviously, Raphael didn't know what the prize for first place was, but he knew through various gossip from adventurers that the prize was not ordinary.
I believe that the number of adventurers who also make judgments will definitely not be too small, so this competition will definitely be more intense than ever.
"And what's your mount?" Zhang Sen asked curiously after listening.
Raphael laughed: "I got a Pegasus, and with my angelic power, I should have the slightest hope of winning the championship." ”
"Then you should come on!" Zhang Sen nodded.
Raphael was curious: "What mount are you going to use to participate, you should have no shortage of mounts." ”
"I'm Zhang Sen's mount!" Keiko replied as she ate a snack.
Raphael looked at Keiko, then at Zhang Sen, with an inquiring expression, and after Zhang Sen nodded in affirmation, he could only show an expression of admiration and give Zhang Sen a thumbs up.
"Let's go and get in line, there may be more and more people in a minute." Zhang Sen smiled at this time.
Raphael nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go line up, wait a minute, are you interested, let's have a rehearsal match first?" ”
"Preliminaries?" Zhang Sen looked at him puzzled.
Raphael explained: "Constantine and I are going to find an uninhabited planet to have a simulated match, which is considered a practice match according to the rules of the previous edition. ”
"Cheng, I'll participate!" Zhang Sen nodded.
Rafael laughed: "If you have any trusted friends, you can also call together, the more people, the more people, after all, the game can be chaotic at that time." ”
"Yes, we'll go together later!" Zhang Sen nodded.
Raphael went to the queue to register, and it was Jeff's turn just a few people away, so Zhang Sen did not go online, but looked at the queue.
Five minutes later, it was finally Jeff's turn to register, after which Jeff released his mount to the display.
Jeff's mount is a winged panther with a huge body and a sleeved mouth, which is very ferocious and wants to attack something as soon as it comes out.
"Hahaha, isn't it full of wildness, only such a brutal mount is suitable for my berserker Jeff." Jeff was very pleased with his mount and laughed.
Everyone else was a little speechless, it was obvious that the Black Panther did not give in to Jeff, wasn't Jeff afraid of the mount rebelling during the race?
After registering, Jeff returned to Zhang Sen with a smile and said, "How is my mount, it's wild enough!" ”
"In terms of wildness, it is indeed very strong." Zhang Sen nodded.
Jeff laughed, "You're still going to stay here?" ”
"Just wanted to see the level of the other contestants, right...... Wait a minute, a friend of mine is going to have a practice match, are you interested? Zhang Sen replied, then remembered Raphael's words and asked.
Jeff listened and asked, "Who?" ”
"Adventurers you know in the world of Ragnarok, Raphael, have you heard of it?" Zhang Sen replied.
Jeff shook his head and said, "I don't know, there are so many people in the country forever, I can't know them all, but since it's your friend, it doesn't hurt to get to know each other, let's go together." ”
"Well, then let's wait for him, he's queuing up to sign up." Zhang Sen nodded.
Dozens of minutes later, Raphael also signed up and returned to Zhang Sen's side again, and through Zhang Sen's introduction, Jeff and Raphael knew each other.
Although Jeff is a self-acquaintance, Raphael is not the object of his interest, so he just nods his head.
Then the three of them left together, Raphael came by spaceship, so Zhang Sen and Jeff will take his spaceship to the planet where the rehearsal will take place this time.
The planet on which the rehearsal is located is on the edge of the Eternal Realm, which is a Thousand Worlds with a large number of inanimate galaxies.
Raphael, along with a few friends, contracted the galaxy and transformed it into a makeshift practice site.
"Why in the Middle Thousand Worlds?" After listening to Raphael's introduction, Zhang Sen asked puzzled.
Raphael smiled bitterly: "Because the middle thousand world is cheaper, and the transformation is simpler, if it is a large world, the transformation will require a lot of money." ”
The higher the world level, the higher the cost of retrofitting.
In fact, in order to save the cost of the renovation, even Konstantin joined in, so he didn't come to sign up.
The ship was fast, and it took half an hour to reach the world where the prerehearsal was held, and then flew to the planet that had already been prepared.
The planet itself is an ordinary planet without any life, and at this time it has been modified, building a temporary landing of a spaceship on the flat ground, and even creating an enchantment to resist the invasion of wind and sand.
Under the control of artificial intelligence, the spaceship fell between many spaceships, and then Raphael led Zhang Sen and Jeff off the spaceship.
"Raphael, you're finally here, how is the registration going?" Next to the other spaceship, a rugged man asked.
Rafael laughed: "It's very strong, it's not easy, I saw several previous champions present. ”
"I knew that in fact, it didn't matter if we participated or not." Dahan sighed helplessly.
Rafael smiled: "Who knows, maybe we will be lucky and eliminate the champions directly." ”
"Haha, that's right, a man like me who is as lucky, Lady Luck must be particularly favored." Dahan immediately laughed.
Then Raphael led Zhang Sen and Jeff to continue walking, and said with a smile as he walked: "That guy's name is Umezaki Fan, he fell in the Ragnarok world before, but fortunately, the Eternal Kingdom decided to resurrect all the dead this time, so he came back to life." ”
"Well, that's pretty lucky." Jeff nodded.
After all, there are only a handful of dead citizens resurrected in the Eternal Kingdom, and it is already considered lucky to be able to meet it once.
Grandstands and viewing halls were set up on the planet, and Rafael brought the two into them, saying: "If you don't want to play or be eliminated in the game, you can continue to watch the game here." ”
"It's so basic." Zhang Sen looked at it and couldn't help but complain.
This viewing hall was obviously built directly with some kind of spell, without any technical content, and it was as simple as a mud house.
"After all, it's just a rehearsal competition, everyone just came to try their skills, after all, we haven't actually participated in the speed competition before, and if we don't try, we don't know the bottom of our hearts." Raphael explained with a smile.
In fact, most of the riders who participated in the rehearsal race this time were adventurers, and in the past, everyone didn't pay much attention to the Thrill Race, but if it wasn't for the fact that the situation attracted the attention of many people this time, it is estimated that the adventurers would only focus on other worlds, rather than races within the Eternal Country, unless it is a race with huge rewards such as Infinity War.
Zhang Sen understood, in fact, the adventurers were not confident, so they were ready to try it first, it is estimated that many people have not even signed up yet, if they don't understand the results of the experiment, they will simply give up.
This is normal, although the rewards are tempting, but people know that adventurers tend to be more cautious, and it is better to give up the game and focus on other worlds when they participate in a race that is not destined to be rewarded.
"When does the game start?" Zhang Sen asked.
Raphael replied: "It's almost noon, the track is still being built, if you get bored, you can go online first." ”
"Can I go and see the track?" Zhang Sen asked.
Raphael shrugged and said, "Of course, go together?" ”
"Let's go!" Zhang Sen nodded immediately.
Zhang Sen asked the Candle Spirit to turn the red cloud into the shape of a couch, and asked Raphael and Jeff to come up, and then under Raphael's guidance, they went directly along a track that resembled a dirt road.
"The competition is divided into six areas, namely the Earth Benz Division, the Swamp Division, the River Division, the Falling Rock Division, the Air Division, and the Volcano Division. Raphael introduced.
The rules of each competition area are different, for example, the rules of the land benz competition area are that mounts can only run on the earth, and they are never allowed to fly, and once they fly, they will be deducted points.
In the rockfall area, it is not allowed to be hit by falling rocks, and points will be deducted if it hits.
Zhang Sen has learned about the last competition and knows that this is indeed the gameplay of the previous competition, but he doesn't know what problems will come out of this session.
But practicing the gameplay of the last session is not useless, first of all, you can let him and Keiko feel the feeling of the game first, and with this cooperation, the tacit understanding can also increase slightly at that time.
The rules of the Thrill Contest are different from year to year, but one thing is always the same, and that is the contestants and the mounts!
