"Mysterious, powerful, and elusive, this is how the Shadowblade is understood and your positioning. To maintain that impression, you have to open your mouth as little as possible and show people as much as possible that you are strong......"

In class, the Countess is teaching Renault, dressed in Shadow Armor, about what he needs to pay attention to. Of course, the Shadow Armor here is made of colloidal auto-shaping printing fabric, which is not a real Shadow Armor, and there is a fiery red cloak behind him.

Listening to the countess's explanation, Renault finally couldn't help but say: "The Shadow Blades are dark warriors who control energy to fight, although they are very powerful, but in fact they are not muscular men. Also, the Shadow Blade doesn't use a red cloak, which doesn't help them fight stealth......"

The Countess stopped lecturing: "How do you know?" ”

Renaud shrugged: "I am a student of the Military Academy, and understanding the enemy is our basic need...... We have a dedicated deity clan course. ”

"Shut up!" The Countess interrupted him unceremoniously: "What the public needs to know is never the truth. They only focus on what interests them, and what you need to do is not to present the truth, but to have fun. ”

"I'm a player, not a monkey!"

"If you want a million, you have to learn to be a monkey!" The Countess gave him a head unceremoniously.

Renault touched his head and replied helplessly: "Okay, the dark warrior in the red cloak, this is really imaginative." ”

Despite not petitioning, Renault had to accept the countess's arrangement.

Four hours later, it's time for the Silverwing's training.

Although Renault has been training the Shenyao system in the training module for three years, when it comes to actual operation, it will be found that there is still a huge difference between simulation training and practical use.

Renault will have to adapt to this difference as quickly as possible in order to play to its strengths.

Sfield and Nora were his sparring partners, and in order to give him enough pressure and challenge, the two went together.

At first, Renault was always beaten badly, and the two of them were close and long, so that he couldn't even breathe, but as Renault gradually adapted to the mecha, the power of the Silverwinged Angel gradually came into play, and it was no longer easy for Sfield and Nora to win.

Although they were two people, they were all old and dilapidated mechs, and they were far inferior to the Silverwings in terms of power index.

Meeting opponents is the best way to improve their strength, and both sides are making rapid progress in the process.

The start time of the Red Scorpion League is half a month after the start of the holiday, and the entire league lasts for about a month. And before that, Gad had already reported Renault's name. used a fake identity and was codenamed "Shadow".

A few days later, Gard brought good news – he contacted a television station.

Introducing yourself to the public before a competition is a method that contestants often use to sell themselves. Only by attracting enough viewers will they watch the game you participate in and become your fans in the process, and enough fans are the root of attracting businessmen to invest money.

Here, league standings are the core key to determining the number of adherents, but they are not the only ones.

Handsome looks, witty conversation, maverick style, successful packaging, etc. are all essential links.

If a player can be in the spotlight before the event starts, it means that he has succeeded, and it is up to him how far he can go.

The TV station that Gade contacted is a star-rated TV station, and the program is mainly broadcast for the central star region, which is not too big, but it is not small, and a newcomer to Renault can get such an opportunity, thanks to Gade's extraordinary eloquence and deception.

That evening, Edgar TV.

Today's TV station is extremely lively, packed with mecha fighters from all over the world.

They dressed up in all sorts of fancy costumes and weird looks, looking like they were attending a Halloween costume party.

Renault had thought that his dark samurai in a red cloak would be too conspicuous, but when he arrived, he realized that he was underestimating people's imaginations - those who couldn't wait to make a splash, and they could play with any kind of look, even the stinging snake shape.

"Remember, don't rush to express yourself, don't make too many body movements, and speak briefly, forcefully, confidently and passionately. Do you understand? Countess Annette Bayard sorted out Renault's costume and reminded him of the things to look out for.

Renault nodded to indicate that he remembered.

"Adam Duncan is Edgar's gold medal host and has always been known for his sharp words and ruthlessness. In order to increase the ratings, he may deliberately ask questions that make you feel embarrassed, don't be impulsive, and don't fall into the trap of his language. ”

"Yes, I remember, ma'am."

The Countess smiled a little, and she patted Renault on the cheek: "It's only five minutes, take advantage of it, don't let me down." ”

Renaud nodded, looking back.

The show has begun, and the host in a gorgeous suit is speaking passionately and loudly on stage:

"My dear friends, welcome to Edgar, this is the pinnacle of the show, and I'm Adam Duncan, your most loyal old friend! Oh roar! The host paddled out on one knee, and was greeted by a sea of applause and loud screams.

When the applause stopped, Adam Duncan waved his hands, jumped up and said loudly, "As you can see, the annual Mecha Carnival Night is about to start again. After ten busy days of registration and screening, the major leagues are basically ready to start! Some leagues can't wait to start first in order to get the top spot, but the real show is yet to come. Over the next fifty days, we'll see mechs from all over the universe gather here to fight for glory in the major leagues. So who will be the real hero of this mecha carnival? Maybe it's you...... Maybe it's you...... It's you...... It's you...... Or maybe they! ”

After pointing at the audience several times in succession, Adam Duncan suddenly turned around and pointed behind him, and with rows of brilliant lights lit up, the mechs rushed out.

Some of them are ace drivers who have won championships in competitions, and have a resounding reputation and strong appeal; Some veterans who have been galloping on the battlefield of Schwanny for many years have a wealth of experience; There are also rookies like Renault, who come with dreams and aspirations.

They stood in the middle of the field, posing in various poses, and let their character be judged.

Standing in such a group of people, Renault watched the people around him pose in various shapes and postures like competing for favor, and only felt an inexplicable irritability in his heart.

He hates that!

Renault has always felt that a true mecha pilot should compete on the battlefield with his own strength, rather than relying on gorgeous costumes and grandstanding to gain public appreciation as he does now; Victory should be achieved through the battle of iron and blood, not by the hype of TV shows, as is the case now.

But he didn't have anything to do, reality is like a cruel machine, putting all your dreams in it, twisting and twisting, making it fragmented, making it scarred, making it broken, making it worthless.

This nasty emotion surrounded him, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, and his mind gradually drifted away, and the host's voice seemed to come from the sky......

Until a hurried call pulled him back to reality.

"Now, let's welcome the ...... from the God's Messenger System Shade! ”

In the hysterical roar of the host, the spotlight hit Renault, and the strong light made Renault involuntarily block it with his hands.

"Look, our dark warriors don't seem to be very accustomed to being exposed to light. As a samurai who walks in the dark, this can be a little difficult for him. ”

Laughter.

"Come on, man, come to me!" Adam Duncan said, waving his hand.

Renault walked over and sat down in the seat across from Duncan.

"So, Mr. Shadow, before I ask you questions, please take off the face towel from your face and let everyone see what you really are."

"I'm sorry sir, I'm afraid I can't do that."

"Why?"

"Because ......," Renault replied after a moment's thought, "I don't want them to see me." ”

"God!" The countess of Hou/Tai covered her face: "What I asked him to answer was, 'A true dark warrior will not let others see his face, and when you see his appearance, you are already dead'." Or, 'You can't see me, you can only see the darkness.'" But what is he talking about? 'I don't want them to see me'...... Damn, who made him say that! ”

"Don't get excited." Gad comforted the countess: "He's just a little nervous. ”

"I have a bad feeling." Said the Countess.

The conversation between Renault and the host on stage continued.

Adam Duncan opened his mouth and laughed as if he had heard some funny joke: "You don't want them to see you?" It's so much fun. I mean, if you don't like being exposed to the public, why would you choose to come here? Just to show off your new outfits? ”

Laughter.

It must be admitted that as a gold medal host, Adam Duncan is still quite professional.

Renault apparently didn't expect Adam Duncan to ask him that.

He paused for a moment before he said, "In order for people to remember me." ”

This answer made the countess almost faint.

Adam Duncan's mouth opened wide in surprise.

He looked at Renault and smiled, "It's so interesting, we know that every mech pilot wants to be remembered by the public, but not many can do it." In my opinion, it's not a good idea to hide your face and name. ”

"Just win." Renault couldn't help but say.

"You think you can win?"

"Yes."

"Looks like you're confident in yourself, can I ask you how long you've been practicing mechs?"

"Three years."

"Three years?"

Adam Duncan finally burst out laughing as if he had heard the funniest thing: "What did I hear? A young man who has only practiced mechs for three years actually wants to make people remember him through constant victories in the mecha league. ”

The audience burst into laughter.

Then Adam Duncan said solemnly, "Maybe I should give you a piece of advice, young man." If you want to be sensational, then you have done it. But that doesn't do anything, and people don't look at you differently because of it. Every day, many people try to attract the attention of the masses by mouthing wild words, but they all fail without exception. Arrogance lacking strength is like a fortress on the beach, which is blown away by others. ”

He made a breathless gesture, and the five fingers of his right hand were retracted and released, as if something had flown away from his fingertips.

Then he said: "Schgwani is a paradise for the strong, and every mech pilot here has at least seven or eight years of rich experience and comprehensive skills. Here, only the best geniuses can go to the end, not dreamers! ”

These words drew applause and applause from the audience.

Adam Duncan successfully turned Renault into a clown with his brilliant performance.

Looking at his appearance, Renault replied:

"They may be good mech pilots, but they're not warriors."
