Chapter 144: Climbing the stairs
As the host opened the envelope, suddenly, several large screens in the gymnasium displayed a flat map of the pentagonal imperial capital, and several red dots were scattered on the map, and a thick red line connected these red dots to form a route.
"Mr. Albert, can you see from this map what this tournament is about?" As the map appeared, Ani in the studio couldn't help but ask.
"If I'm right, this map is the route map of the players' schedule, and the red dots on the map should be where the players are assessed." Hearing Aini's inquiry, Albert said confidently.
And Albert's guess is also as he said, this map is the road map for the non-ring competition of this tournament, and the players need to follow the route on the map to pass all the tests, and finally, return to the Imperial Capital Stadium.
Of course, if someone fails to pass the guò assessment, then they will lose the qualification to participate in the ring, which means that if a contestant in a certain gathering area fails to pass the guò assessment, then this gathering area can only use nine people to compete against ten people in other gathering areas.
Hearing this rule, the faces of the players became solemn, and everyone thought that this non-ring match was just a performance game, and the real focus should be on the ring match, but as soon as this rule came out, everyone had to pay attention to it.
Although the ring match is still the focus, if there is a business trip in the non-ring match, and someone fails to pass the guò assessment, it will directly affect the results of the final ring match.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our chance has come." Chen Sheng, who was the captain, said to everyone with an excited expression after hearing this rule.
On average, the Asian agglomeration is the worst, therefore. In the ring, the Asian gathering area has no advantage at all, but the non-ring competition is different, and the focus of its assessment is not on the cultivation of the players. It's more about assessing other aspects of the players, that is. In the non-ring competition, even if it is not a high-level Asian gathering area, there is hope to stand out and win.
Coupled with the rule just now, if the people in the Asian agglomeration area can pass the guò assessment as much as possible and obtain a numerical advantage, it may bring the ultimate victory to the Asian agglomeration area.
However, in addition to this rule, which is not able to pass the guò assessment, the host read out a strange rule.
The main thing about this rule is that players can help their teammates complete the assessment. Of course, if you complete the assessment on behalf of others, the difficulty of the assessment will be doubled, and if you continue to help your teammates complete the assessment, the difficulty of the assessment will increase superimposedly.
"Whew~~"
When they heard this rule, the players in the four major clusters couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, because there were one or two support abilities in the four teams, such as Princess Anna in the European cluster. Yu Weiwei in the Asian gathering area wants them to pass all the assessments, to be honest, this is indeed difficult for some strong people.
But they are also indispensable to every team. Especially in team battles, the survival of the support ability is the key to victory or defeat.
It can be said that this rule that can complete the assessment for teammates really can't be praised.
"Mr. Albert, can you interpret the assessment rules for this non-ring match for the audience in front of the TV?" When the rules of the non-ring match were read out, the contestants followed the route map and went to the first level, Ani in the studio. Asked.
"Yes."
Hearing this, Albert nodded. "From the rules, it is not difficult to see the importance of non-ring competitions in this competition. From this, we can infer that the expectations of the senior management of the major gathering areas for the all-round development of the younger generation ......" Albert said a long time to the camera, and was stunned to fool the time when the players went to the first assessment location.
Following the route on the map, soon everyone came to the first high-rise building in the Pentagon Imperial Capital, and as the players appeared, suddenly, a team of staff appeared and gave each player four dark iron rings.
"What's this?"
Tu Hao looked at the four iron rings in his hand with a curious expression, "Could it be that the first round of assessment is to throw iron rings and set things?" Suddenly, Tu Hao remembered that every time the New Year was celebrated, the entertainment items that often appeared in the square.
"It's the weight ring, now you need to put it on." At this time, a middle-aged man with a referee's nameplate appeared in front of everyone and said.
"Weight rings?"
Hearing these three words, many students almost didn't laugh out loud, because I don't know if there is a pound of these four iron rings together, and this weight can also be called a weight-bearing ring.
However, since it is stipulated that you should wear it, then wear it. Immediately, everyone put the weight rings on their hands and feet.
After putting on the weight ring, everyone's faces changed together, and the iron ring that was only one pound in the hand was put on, and after wearing it, the weight instantly became 10 pounds, 30 pounds, and 50 pounds...... 100 pounds.
When the weight of the four hoops reaches 100 catties, it will not increase, which can't help but make a group of players breathe a sigh of relief, 100 catties This is nothing for the players whose strength is above level E, they can only barely be regarded as low weight, and it will not affect their actions.
"Mr. Albert, is there any mystery about these four hoops?" Seeing the slightly changing faces of the contestants after wearing the weight rings, Aini asked the questions in her heart for countless audiences.
"These iron rings should be magnetic load-bearing rings, the magnetic load-bearing rings themselves are not heavy, but as long as the magnetic device inside is turned on, the four magnetic rings will attract each other, so that the wearer has a real weight-bearing effect, three years ago in the scientific magazine has reported the relevant theory, I can't imagine that today I actually saw the real thing." Albert introduced, tract.
"Mr. Albert, you are very knowledgeable." Hearing Albert's explanation, Ani couldn't help but exclaim, in this world of warriors and supernatural people, few people will read scientific magazines and the like, and martial arts magazines and paranormal magazines are very popular.
"I see."
As soon as Albert finished explaining, the contestants in front of the building learned the truth from an outdoor screen outside the building.
"Now I announce that the content of the first round of assessment of the competition is, climbing the building!" After everyone brought the magnetic weight ring, the middle-aged referee came to everyone and pointed to the tallest building in the pentagonal imperial capital behind him.
"Whew~~"
Hearing the words of the middle-aged referee, everyone couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, although this building is very high, but if you just climb the stairs, there is absolutely no difficulty.
"The first round of assessment is actually climbing the building, which should be an assessment for the contestants to warm up." Through the live broadcast screen, Ani in the studio said after learning about the assessment items.
"Miss Anie, the referee said to climb the stairs, but he didn't say to climb the stairs." As soon as Aini's words fell, Albert on the side smiled and said.
"Ah, don't you climb the stairs, don't you ......" Hearing Albert's words, Ani suddenly thought of something and exclaimed. At the same time, the camera also switches to the sleek glass curtain wall of the tall building.
"Goo!"
Seeing the straight glass curtain wall in this TV, the audience subconsciously swallowed their saliva, there is not even a place to hold hands on this Nima, how can you climb up.
"That's right, your first round of assessment is to climb up the outer wall of this building, and if anyone damages the glass curtain wall, it will be considered a failure." The middle-aged referee looked at the crowd whose faces changed slightly, and said, "Okay, you have half an hour to finish the game now." ”
"How can I climb up?"
After the middle-aged referee announced the content of the game, all of a sudden, such a question rang out among the four teams.
"No problem!"
Yu Weiwei and Xia Xin'er nodded and said.
"It's hard to climb the stairs, but it's hard for this princess." Princess Anna was full of confidence and said. Indeed, Princess Anna, who often climbs over the wall and runs outside to play, is familiar with climbing the building and climbing the wall.
"Yes, there should be no problem." Feeling the gaze of his companions, Urda, the super-powerful powerhouse in the African gathering area, looked a little unnatural, and said.
Climbing the stairs is a hard work, and there is indeed no problem for a super power person like him, but it is a bit difficult to climb the stairs without damaging the glass curtain wall, and Urda's figure, climbing the stairs on the smooth glass curtain wall, if there is no support point, it is simply a tragedy.
"Boss Mike, save me!!"
Ward, the fat man in the American gathering area, looked at the smooth glass curtain wall, the whole person was stupid, just Ward's fat, lying on the ground, his hands may not be able to reach the ground, which made him climb this kind of glass curtain wall that is smoother than the ground, which is simply killing him.
"Haha, fat man, I'll pull you up." Hearing Ward's words, a slender young man smiled and said. This climb is definitely easy for this young man, because his ability is adhesion, and if others want to climb, he can walk up.
"Bamboo pole, are you sure you can pull this dead fat man?" The woman with the sniper rifle on her back kicked Ward's round stomach, and suddenly, a wave of flesh fluctuated.
Seeing this, the slender young man retreated.
"I'll take you up later." Mike was a little helpless and said. It is estimated that he is the only one in the team who can take this dead fat man upstairs, and the strength of Ward, the fat man, is the strongest in the whole team except for Mike, so letting Ward be eliminated here is definitely an immeasurable loss for the American agglomeration.
"Thank you, Boss!"
Hearing Mike speak, Ward couldn't help but be overjoyed, if he was left behind by his teammates because of his weight and became the first person to be eliminated, then Ward would probably even have the heart to die.
After determining the ability of his teammates to climb the building, everyone immediately took action, and the slender young man with the ability to adhere to the ability in the American gathering area naturally took the lead and ran up on the smooth glass curtain wall. While the others clinged to the curtain wall, they climbed up little by little.
As for Ward's big fat man, he was tied up with a rope by Mike and dragged upstairs. There's no way, who made the fat man's tonnage too big, and he can't carry it if he wants to. (To be continued) R466
