Chapter 334 Battle of Hercules

Everyone in the City of Light is busy, but Li Xiu, the rightful owner, has nothing to do all day long.

Li Xiu feeds the demon spirits every day and studies his symbiosis contract and spirit casting. He has been living a relatively comfortable life recently.

Several demon spirits that Li Xiu focused on cultivating have improved to varying degrees.

After Li Qingyi came to the City of Light, she stayed at home every day and was still working hard to improve the level of the cast spirit. Judging from her posture, she planned to upgrade the cast spirit to the second form before the start of the competition.

Anyway, there is no hope of reaching the first few. This time, except for Li Qingyi, Chu Jun, Agui and others did not participate, they were purely serving the competition.

Li Xiu himself did not participate in the competition. The Demon Spirit Competition needs to fill the scene, otherwise as the organizer, he would not participate.

This time, there was no need for Li Xiu to attend the Trial Competition, so he had no desire to participate.

As time goes by, there are more and more trialists in the City of Light, and the hotels are already full of people. Many residents of the City of Light have turned their houses into temporary B&Bs, which still cannot satisfy the trialists.

In response to demand, many trialists set up tents directly outside the city.

In order to ensure the personal safety of the trialists, Shachu asked Ye Xiyuan to send two teams of magic costumers to maintain security outside the city and take turns patrolling outside the city.

There are also several teams of magic costumers in the city who take turns patrolling. These magic costumers are all fish-man magic costumers brought by Li Xiu from Changshengtian. Some of the magic costumes they wear are new magic costumes from the Changshengtian Research Institute, and the other is a large number of magic costumers.

Part of it is a new type of magical equipment sponsored by the Chu family.

Originally, Li Xiu wanted to order a batch of new magic costumes from the Chu family, but Mr. Chu did not ask for Li Xiu's money. Instead, he made a request and gave away this batch of new magic costumes for free.

However, all the magic costumes provided by the Chu family have the big logo of Baiye City, so others can tell at a glance that they are magic costumes produced by Baiye City.

If it were another company, Li Xiu would naturally not agree, but he cooperated with the Chu family and helped Bai Ye City promote it, so it would be nothing.

"What's going on in the City of Light? As a holy land for trialists, it's a bit embarrassing to use magic costumers as patrols."

"Look at that magic costumer, he's so small, he's not yet an adult, right?"

"Letting the magic costume master manage the trialists is simply a shame for the City of Light, which is known as the holy land of trialers."

"Isn't this too ironic?"

At the beginning, the trialists were a little dissatisfied when they saw the magic costumer patrol.

But when some trialists were causing trouble outside the city, a member of the magic costumer directly burst out with an S-level magic light, which immediately shocked the trialists.

Only then did they realize that the patrol teams in the City of Light were all S-class magic costumers.

Meng Xiaotian is also outside the city. He was delayed this time because of something. He came too late and could not find a place to live in the city, so he had to live outside the city.

Unexpectedly, he gained something from this. He took a video of the magic costumer patrol taking action, re-edited it and uploaded it to the Internet.

This video quickly aroused heated discussion on the Internet. A patrol team composed of S-class magic costume masters is really a very extravagant behavior outside Changshengtian.

Meng Xiaotian specially photographed the Baiye City logo on the magic costumes and gave a close-up to let people know that these magic costume masters are wearing Baiye City's magic costumes.

"How come you haven't seen these S-class magic equipment before? They seem to be new models, right?"

"A new model of magic equipment has been released in Baiye City. Why haven't you seen it on the official website? It can't be fake, right?"

"Don't make wild guesses. These are the latest types of magic equipment developed by Baiye City, and the data haven't been officially released yet."

"The City of Light is actually able to obtain so many new types of magic equipment that have not yet been launched on the market. It seems that it has an unusual relationship with White Night City."

"That's for sure. The number two figure in the City of Light, Chu Jun, who presided over the Demon Spirit Competition last time, is the son of the Chu family in White Night City."

"That's no wonder. Those new magic costumes look very cool. Isn't the patrolling magic costume master also from White Night City?"

"I have a relative who is a senior executive of the White Night City Magic Equipment Factory. According to reliable information, these new batch of magic equipment are very powerful, much stronger than ordinary S-class magic equipment..."

The Trialist Competition has not even started yet, but Baiye City's new magic equipment has already sparked heated discussions, making the old man of the Chu family grin from ear to ear with joy.

Under everyone's attention, the opening ceremony of the Trialist Competition finally arrived.

Chu Jun is still the host this time. Just like the last Demon Contest, the first scene of the opening ceremony is the appearance of the Archer of Love.

Love Archer's reputation is still very high outside, and he is recognized by many people when he appears.

But when they saw the Archer of Cupid shoot an arrow into the sky, turning into love and magic light all over the sky, they were still shocked by the sight.

"Let's go, the love archer has become stronger. Before, she seemed to be able to only shoot one love arrow, right? What's going on with all the love arrows in the sky?"

"It's so gorgeous. I don't know which trial place the Goddess of Love is a demon spirit from. I really want one."

"This strength should be S-level, right?"

"The Archer of Love is so strong. I don't know how strong the Black Death Lord, Jedi Knight and Fukiki are now. I really want to see them soon."

"Then you will be disappointed. The Lord of Light City did not participate in the Trialist Competition."

"Ah! That's not to say that we can't see the Black Death Lord and the Jedi Knights. I'm just here for them."

…

Amidst the discussion among the trialists, the opening ceremony performance officially began. Surprisingly, except for the love shooter, no demons appeared again. The performance was just some songs and dances, with many advertisements interspersed in between.

Even the actors performing on stage were wearing advertisements from major famous brands.

"I'll go, City of Light is crazy about money, isn't this okay?"

"Are you here to watch the game or the commercial?"

"The City of Light is no longer the City of Light it used to be."

“Refund the ticket!”

…

Li Xiu, who was sitting in the VIP room, was a little embarrassed when he saw these performances. He looked at Sha Chu and asked, "Have we received so many advertisements?"

"There are many more to come." Shachu nodded.

"This is too harsh. Can some of it be removed?" Li Xiu also felt that there were too many advertisements and it was a bit excessive.

Shachu didn't say anything, but handed Li Xiu the details of the advertising fees and the amount of liquidated damages from the major companies: "City Lord, are you wondering which one to withdraw?"

Li Xiu looked at it carefully and said with a wry smile: "I think I can still hold on, let others vent their anger."

Finally, the opening ceremony ended, and Chu Jun announced the schedule and the list of contestants despite the scolding.

The first game of the competition is a strength contest called the Battle of Hercules, where the winner is determined by strength.

People are very curious, how to tell who is stronger? Should the tester be asked to lift weights?

With such curiosity, people came to the arena early the next morning to watch the battle of Hercules.

After people arrived at the arena, they found a pile of unknown objects in the middle of the arena, covered with red silk. They didn't know what they were.

Chu Jun walked out at this time, stood next to the big guy, and said with a loudspeaker: "Everyone must be curious about what is in here? Don't worry, I will reveal the answer to you soon."

With that said, Chu Jun stretched out his hand and pulled down the red silk cloth, revealing what was inside.

When everyone saw the appearance of that thing clearly, they couldn't help but be stunned.

"Is this a bulldozer?"

"The battle of Hercules won't pit trialists against bulldozers, right?"

"What the hell is this? Let the tester compete with the bulldozer. Isn't this too perfunctory?"

Everyone who came here was very disappointed with the design of the City of Light. If it was really a strength test like this, they might as well watch weightlifting.

The audience's reaction seemed to be what Chu Jun expected. After the discussion subsided a little, Chu Jun loudly controlled the situation and said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is the battle of Hercules.

This important instrument, we call it the Hercules Machine."

"Don't worry, everyone. I can tell you with certainty that this is not a bulldozer, but a strength tester." Chu Jun's words finally silenced the scene.

People are very curious about how this bulldozer-like thing is going to test its strength.

Chu Jun walked to the Hercules Machine, then moved his body and punched the baffle in front of the Hercules Machine.

Bang!

Chu Jun's fist hit the baffle, and the baffle only retracted slightly. The entire machine did not move, but on the machine that looked like a cockpit glass, a row of jumping numbers appeared.

Finally stopped at 22.

"As you can see, after this Hercules machine suffers a heavy blow, it will display the force value it has endured. The larger the value, the stronger the contestant's strength. The tester can hit the Hercules machine by himself.

You can also use innate skills, symbiosis contracts, parasitic contracts or demon spirits, as long as they belong to the trialist, but you are prohibited from using any other tools. Today is the preliminary round of the Battle of Hercules, and the rules are strength values.

Players with more than 20 can enter the next round of competition, please enter now."

In this way, the audience finally became interested and looked at the first trialist to enter.

Li Xiu, Li Qingyi and others also looked at the Hercules Machine. This is an instrument that Sha Chu specially asked the research institute to manufacture. Although the material itself is not particularly good, it has been designed to be able to withstand the power of the Spirit-casting level head-on.

will be destroyed.

Of course, the Hercules Machine still has its limits. If it exceeds the limit that the Hercules Machine's internal mechanical kinetic energy conversion can withstand, the Hercules Machine will still be damaged.

The first trialist to enter the arena was Xiao Er.

Xiao Er was dressed like a noble prince today, and he was not bad looking. When he appeared on the stage, he brought a group of demon spirits with him, and the crowd was stunned by the splendid scene.

"So many demons...Does this guy have a mine at home?"
