Chapter 491 Qualifiers (1)
Update time: 2012-08-30
"What's the thing? There are separate schedules for the shooter profession? The mage is not allowed to participate in individual competitions? There are actually riding competitions? What are these and what!? Is the orc's brain watered?"
It was almost evening, and the grassland under the setting sun was shrouded in a light orange curtain. The cattle and sheep began to automatically walk into the circle. After the grazing, the herdsmen shook their whips and whispered the long and distant horns.
The grasslands began to gradually calm down on a lively day. Of course, this only refers to the herdsmen who were working in and out of the sun. In the various public gathering points of the outer camp of Bukhassuqi, a white tent and a starry bonfire were scattered, decorating the grasslands with extra beautiful appearance.
But compared with the beautiful scenery of the grassland, many players were filled with resentment and confusion, because when they signed up for the competition today, everyone was told that something very unexpected and should not be unexpected - the Damu Conference is different from the general competitive conference, and nomadic society has its own competitive rules.
First of all, the individual competitions of the Dharmus are divided into three types: fighting, shooting, and equestrian. Each type of competition has some professional and weapon restrictions.
Fighting has basically no professional restrictions, but only allows melee weapons to be held and spells cannot be used. And if you can fight shirtlessly (without armor, or other protective gear) or fight bare hands and empty-handed, you can get extra points and rewards.
There are no professional restrictions for shooting, but only long-range weapons are allowed to be held, and spells cannot be used. However, the schedule of shooting competitions is quite special. The initial preliminaries were compared to shooting fixed targets, and then there were mobile targets and high-speed targets. Only in the 16th finals will there be bloody battles of shooting each other.
In theory, there is no limit on equestrianism, but in general, only knight professions are capable of participating. This competition is the most rewarding in the entire individual competition, and the schedule is also very complicated. At the beginning, it is immediately assigned to the contestants a wild horse, requiring them to tame the opponent for a limited time, and then they compete for the horse-driving and shooting skills, and finally they are fighting for life and death. The restrictions of equestrian competitions... are naturally the same as the above two, and spells cannot be used.
But it must be noted that mages are not allowed to participate in the entire individual match (and there is no way to fight). This is due to the orcs' contempt for the "cowardly" mage and the reality. After all, mage's spells are indeed too strong in some competitions.
As soon as these rules were released, a stir immediately caused a stir among players, especially mage players. Many people protested to the customer service, and the reply given by Huanwang Company was also very simple - it is okay to participate, but you cannot use spells.
So, the mages were silent, but in addition to them, there were many players who wanted to show off their equipment effects, especially the equestrian, which almost killed most players in seconds, because the equestrian in this game is not as simple as in other games, and riding it will be over. So in order to take care of most players, Huanwang Company designed a riding simulation system. As long as this system is turned on, any player can ride his mount without any obstacles, but...
There is a very important rule for equestrian competitions, and the use of riding simulation systems is prohibited.
It is conceivable that in this era when legs have been replaced by wheels, how many people have ridden a horse?
So, the answer is very sad. Until the registration is over, there were only 1,211 players participating in equestrian competitions. Although this number is very large, it is less than one percent of the nearly 250,000 players.
"Oh, what's the solution? Who made this conference run by orcs?"
"I'll go! It's the age, and I still hold on to those inexplicable rules."
The night gradually enveloped, and players were drinking and eating meat while venting their dissatisfaction loudly. However, no matter how much they scolded, most people chose to sign up for the competition. After all, such a schedule is also a very fresh experience for them.
"What era do you mean? The current Yashan is only about the thirteenth century on Earth. Do you still expect the orcs to set up a Dharm Congress committee to deal with this kind of thing?"
"cut……"
Through the curtain of the tent, he heard a faint complaint from outside. Yue Yulou, who was sitting next to the stove with the beauty, shook his head slightly, and his right hand turned from time to time to time, a piece of iron rod in front of him was worn by a iron rod. It looked golden and crispy, and the greasy whole roasted lamb was filled with oil. The soft flame filled the whole tent with strange warmth, and the tempting fragrance even drifted outside the tent.
"After that being said, the orc customs are indeed very... classical."
Opposite Yueyu Tower, Artoria, dressed in casual clothes, was pouring horse milk wine into the wine glass with a silver wine pot. When the milky white horse milk wine flowed out of the wine pot, a strong sweetness and slightly sour atmosphere suddenly filled the entire tent, and mixed with the tempting roasted lamb smell into a smell that belonged only to the grassland.
"Haha, it's not classical, but as a young race, orcs can replace the status of human nomads in the Heavenly Father's prairie. Their customs are an indispensable factor. Only by fighting all the time can this race without the protection of any dragon god be guaranteed to survive."
"Well... Although I have always heard the indigenous people tell me how barbaric orcs are and how bloodthirsty they are, when I really see, orcs also have a very simple side. Perhaps the pressure of survival forces them to show their bloodthirsty side."
As he said that, Artoria picked up a wine glass and handed it to Yue Yulou with a smile.
"but……"
After taking and taking a sip of the wine, Yue Yulou immediately put down the wine glass, picked up a knife on the table, gently cut off a few thin slices of mutton on the hind legs of the roasted lamb, and then delivered it to Artoria.
"...Daisy, why don't you participate in the equestrian competition? I believe your riding skills will definitely not be bad."
But Artoria did not answer his question immediately, but gently twisted a small piece of roasted lamb as thin as silkworm wings with her fingers and then put it into her mouth...
"Well, Suss, your skills are really good. You don't have to do it or not... It turns out that you are a man who can go to the hall and go to the kitchen. This time I really made a profit."
Soon, Artoria held her cheeks with both hands, showing a very enjoyable expression, and her words made Yue Yulou feel inexplicably powerless.
"You..."
He reached out and knocked the other person's forehead, and Yue Yulou took the empty plate in front of her and cut more than ten slices of mutton for her.
"Actually...Sus, once I participate in the competition, no matter how powerful your spell is, you will still be recognized by others. In this case, people with a little bit of mind will immediately guess that you will definitely be here."
Yue Yulou, who was eating sweet and sour cheese, immediately understood what the other party meant when he heard Artoria's words.
"Daisy, actually..."
"Sus, listen to me."
Putting down the plate, Artoria then stood up, walked to Yue Yulou, then knelt on the street stall, stared into his eyes, and said softly:
"Sus, maybe you don't know... You and your Mu have become a benchmark for the entire game. They represent strength in the hearts of many people, but they also attract many people who want to become famous... In the last game year, you and Mu almost beat the entire Yashan, and the number of players who are directly or indirectly lost to your subordinates may have exceeded one million. Now the entire game is full of your Avengers, once your whereabouts are exposed..."
"Hmph, some dust that is not even ants, I..."
"Sus! Listen to me."
Pressing Yue Yulou's right hand, Artoria found that her tone was a little heavy, immediately slowed down her voice and said in a softer tone:
"Sus, do you know? I value this trip very much... because this is the first time since we met, we were alone, without any outsiders, without any interference, walking... I don't want this memory to be covered with any blood, nor do I want this trip to end early. I think... more, more with you, not for fighting, not for killing, and even more stupid to walk for something else... just to be together, in order to let us know each other more deeply, this is why I don't want to participate in any competition. Compared with bonuses and reputation, I value this trip itself more, this time belongs to the two of us."
Paying attention to the affection and sincerity contained in the clear eyes of the beauty in front of her, the most sensitive string in Yue Yulou's heart was touched. After taking a deep breath, he immediately smiled and held the hand that the other party pressed on the back of his hand, and said softly:
"Okay, Daisy, I promise you... This trip is only your and my trip. I will not take action no matter what, unless you want to."
"Um."
The beauty's smile seemed to have infected Yue Yulou. After pinching the other person's nose, he immediately picked up the knife and began to peel the meat from the hind legs of the roasted lamb.
"Oh, now I suddenly remember that I haven't eaten a piece of it yet because of you?"
"Hmph! No matter what, you have to feed me first."
"Oh, it's really troublesome. I wanted someone to cook, but a little foodie came... How should I live my life in the future?"
"Hmph! You are the foodie! I was the first to eat you!"
As night fell, the campfire was still vigorous, and people were still drinking all night without noticed laughter coming out of a very ordinary white tent...
Time flies, and it will soon come early the next morning.
Although the dew on the grass has not dried up, the entire grassland has completely awakened. The noise and noise have made the entire competition venue mess. Thanks to the vastness of the grassland, the venue of the Damu Conference is also very wide. Although it is a bit irregular, the guardrails firmly separate the audience and the athletes, especially the vicious orc guards.
"Suss, what's the schedule this morning?"
"Let me look... it is mainly the first qualifier for individual competitions in fighting, the first qualifier for individual competitions in shooting, and the adjustment of team competitions (a training match that does not count results, mainly against NPC, which allows the participating teams to adapt to the venue and observe the opponent's informal competition)."
"Then let's go and see the qualifiers for the fight."
"Um."
After closing the schedule, Yue Yulou and Artoria immediately followed the crowd to the field of the fighting qualifiers, a large area of grass separated by wooden pillars and unobstructed.
"Participants in the first formation! Please be prepared! The competition will start in one minute!"
The orc's loud voice is incomparable to any amplification device, and just one person makes the players in the entire venue hear it clearly.
"Sus, why is this...the venue so simple?"
"This is the case for the qualifiers. Only in the knockout round will the shamans create some complicated terrain, and don't think that the only venue for the Dharmur conference is here."
As he said that, Yue Yulou pointed to the mountains that were faintly visible to the north, then pointed to the not-so-dense forest on the horizon on the south side, and finally pointed to the smooth Buhasu Qihai as a mirror.
"There are some places, there, and here... they are all competition venues for the Damu Conference, but they will only be used when they are in the next few games."
"Uh...hu, too?"
"Of course, don't underestimate the orcs' brains too much. In fact, the organizers of each Damu Conference can propose a special venue based on the characteristics of their territory. This year's Iron Tooth Tribe's proposal is this...water war."
"No wonder I saw Naga players coming to participate, it turned out..."
Just as the two were talking, a very familiar noise came from nearby.
"Betting! Betting! Betting a hundred bets, and wealth is coming!"
"Ah, it turns out that it is a guy who will definitely appear in such an occasion. I was wondering why I didn't see it before..."
That's right, those noisy people are the game gamblers that Yue Yulou once met. This unprecedented Damu Conference is undoubtedly their grand event.
"Sus, they are..."
"Some gamblers are just a good entertainment, but occasionally making a bet."
"Why do you feel familiar with you..."
"Well, I had it at that conference."
Dong!
Suddenly, with a dull drum, everyone's attention was instantly attracted, and the qualifiers for the Damus's fight are about to begin...
Chapter completed!
