07. Triathlon

Since the preliminary round, there have been many complaining players on the official website.

They felt that the second round of the Tournament of Death was meaningless and more biased towards the real-life athletes. After all, all the physical qualities of the player are basically at the same level, and the athletes who have mastered the power skills are more likely to exert and save physical strength.

On the first day, the production team was still able to pretend to be dumb, and on the second and third days, there were more players complaining. So the production team had to explain that the second round format of Tournament of Death was related to the third round.

And here's the problem. What kind of third round will require athletic players ......?

"It's time for the game!"

Huang Jianxiang shouted, and saw that the black pressure below pressed a piece of water and instantly boiled like boiling water.

Bai Yansong sighed with emotion: "The scene of tens of thousands of people gathering together to swim is really spectacular. ”

The screen is showing a panoramic view from above. In a park in Hell City, Karene and others are watching the game on the TV in front of a bench.

"Mu Su is delicate and soft, I'm worried about his ......," Karen Xizi said with a frown.

Wen Xiang bumped Karen on the shoulder: "After being together, I look like I have been moisturized." ”

Kalian wrinkled her nose and said coquettishly, "No...... There's not much you can do in the game. ”

"Don't you still want to develop into reality?" Smell the fragrance and exclaim contrivedly.

"So what's going on?" Karen held her chin and looked at the screen again, and suddenly shouted: "Look, it's Mu Su!" ”

……

As time passed, the water gradually became layered.

A group of players swims in front, followed by a large group of people following the flutter.

Except for a few leg cramps that couldn't be helped, no one was eliminated. After all, after the preliminary round and the preliminary round, most of the people who stay here now can swim.

"At the top of the list at the moment is the Yellow Rose." The camera cuts to the first competitor, who uses the freestyle and swings his left and right arms rhythmically. Bai Yansong said according to the information that appeared on the teleprompter: "His personal best result was 96th place in the preliminaries, and it looks like he is in better shape today, and the second place is two places behind him." Jianxiang, who are you most optimistic about in the rematch? ”

Huang Jianxiang replied with a deep groan: "I am more optimistic about the third in the preliminary round and the fifth in the preliminaries, he was very stable in the first two races, and there were no obvious shortcomings in swimming, cycling or long-distance running. ”

The screen switches to Visito at the right time, and the player is using the breaststroke, with his head still on the water.

Although it is slow, it is better to be stable and not tired.

The two commentators chatted for a while, causing players watching the live to complain about how this game would be the same as the real thing.

As the race continued, the distance grew wider. The first echelon of runners has already pulled 100 meters away from the last runner.

Mu Su seemed to be completely obscured from everyone, and he couldn't see his figure in the camera at all.

The camera returns to the overlook, condescendingly including all the contestants in the camera.

The triathlon course starts from two kilometers of water on the south coast of Hell City, goes ashore and passes through a 40-kilometer winding road. The area around the sea has been deliberately cleaned, and the dark blue rippling waters are completely different from the dark red and blood-like color outside this sea area.

And it is this that makes it easier to spot the shadows under the sea floor in clear water.

In the camera, a huge black shadow rushed in from the crimson sea, approaching the unknown players from the bottom of the water.

"Huh? This is? Bai Yansong noticed something strange and snorted softly.

The huge black shadow came from below the densest number of players, and suddenly burst out!

A large mouth of blood basin tens of meters in size suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, and layers of sharp teeth were all over the edge, swallowing the sea water and hundreds of players together, and sinking to the bottom of the sea.

The waters are churned, and some players on the edge are swept up by the undercurrent and sink into the sea. After a while, a frightening red appeared on the surface of the sea.

The shadow was still in place, as if digesting the food.

Huang Jianxiang sighed with emotion: "Poor contestants, I hope they are okay." ”

Bai Yansong reported the current situation: "At present, the leader is still Yellow Rose, followed by the second linden tree and the third YIP. They don't seem to be affected, hey, there's a player! There's a player who's catching up at incredible speed! ”

The director switched the camera in time, but saw a contestant with his hands on both sides, his body was straight, his black hair and black eyes were extremely pale, who was not Mu Su.

He was moving close to the sea with incredible speed and posture, leaving a long trail behind him, like a motorboat...... Gallop.

Strictly speaking, the upper body is tilted out of the water, and the legs are pressed under the water, as if something is pushing behind it.

"He cheats !!"

One player shouted, but was drowned out by the sound of the waves.

"This player is very smart, he can actually think of using foreign objects." Huang Jianxiang in the live broadcast room praised it.

Mu Su's profile appeared in the lower left corner of the screen, and Bai Yansong read it out: "Mu Su, the seeded player, has signed up for all 34 sports at present. ”

Both the players who are playing and the players who are watching the live are amazed, can it still be like this...... Obviously fouled......

In just a few seconds, Mu Su surpassed all the players in front of him, leaving two scattered white waves in one ride.

A few minutes later, when the crowd was still in the two-tenths of the water, Masu had already come to the shore. He stepped out of the water with heavy steps, and the audience also saw the mystery of Mu Su's speed.

A dolphin bared its head and barked at Musu.

Mu Su took out all the red crystals in his pocket and threw them at it, and climbed the embankment to the changing station.

Musu grabbed a bottle of mineral water and food bag with the logo torn off, turned over and rode the mountain bike provided by the sponsor, and left the rest point.

It is important to replenish your energy. After this update, although there is no requirement to eat, players will get physical recovery after eating.

After that, the journey was relatively boring, and Mu Su hummed and pedaled along the mountain road.

Nearly an hour later, Mu Su suddenly heard some sounds behind him, and couldn't help but turn around, surprised to find that a player was pedaling a mountain bike a hundred meters away, still closing the distance between them.

"Why are you cheating so fast!" Mu Su is shameless and still talking about others.

The player, named Blue Lantern, was silent. Mu Su suddenly had no intention of befriending him, rummaged through the food bag with both hands, and quickly took out a banana.

Peel off the skin and eat it three times and divide it by two, and then deliberately slow down to let the blue light approach.

"It's not going to be—" Huang Jianxiang pulled out a long voice while speaking the hearts of all the players in the audience.

"Blue lantern players shouldn't be so stupid and don't know how to hide." Bai Yansong commented.

Then, when the blue light approached within ten meters of Mu Su, Mu Su suddenly threw out a banana peel.
