Stop, I'm about to become a boss!

Chapter 168 Brilliant Gladiator, Officially Begins

Generally speaking, the mobilization meeting is never the beginning of a certain stage, but a reminder that the matter is coming to an end.

Just like the end of a piece of music, there is usually the most exciting climax in the whole piece, and the mobilization meeting is the link between the climax and the foreshadowing.

After the mobilization meeting ended, all residents and players in Lapa City entered into intensive preparations.

Although not back to what it used to be, residents have made changes and are no longer as usual, leaving work after get off work, even if the time is not up.

They still only complete their duties, but at the same time, they raise the ceiling of their duties a little bit, or lengthen the off-duty time, or increase the content.

Players have also slowed down a little bit on the construction of dungeons, and they all focus on improving their level and skill proficiency.

During this period of time, the arena in Lapa City has finally returned to the level of being full of people. It is often full until late at night. If you come late, let alone play, you have to discuss with others about the place to watch the game. Sit on your shoulders or take a personal ladder or something.

Everything seems to be going in a good direction.

Of course, when everyone was working hard, Linton, as the helm, naturally did not stop improving himself.

Due to the existence of players, a large number of players, Linton's trait of drawing experience from issuing missions finally played its most terrifying role.

He didn't need to hunt monsters in the wild, nor did he need to explore secret realms. He didn't even need to leave the door. He could just sit in the city lord's mansion and watch his experience bar slowly fill up, empty, and fill up again.

Although the filling progress is getting slower and slower due to the current level is not low, but anyway, these things can almost be said to be taken for nothing.

People criticize unearned behavior every day, but when it falls on themselves, they still accept it with a smile on their faces.

Because, getting something for nothing is really cool!
Of course, there is a reason why players are keen to come to him to pick up quests instead of looking for quests with more experience.

Linton doesn't give much experience every time he releases a mission, but because there are too many monks and too few players, and the number of players is too large and increasing, it is impossible for everyone to receive a good mission, so even if the quality of the mission he releases is not good, High, experience is better than none, but players who really can't find any way to improve will still come to him to accept tasks.

After all, although the quality is poor, it is simple!

Taking one ore or picking a basket of herbs can gain hundreds of experience points. This kind of difficulty is almost equal to the task given for free. Why not do it?

With the efforts of the players, Linton's current level has also been greatly improved, reaching level 46.

Although he didn't complete any tasks and didn't reach level [-], so there wasn't any qualitative change, but maybe because of the luck improvement, none of his random attribute points were crooked this time, and all points were on intelligence.

Today, his intelligence has reached 65 points, which cannot be said to be a new level, but because of [Abes's compassionate authority] blessed by luck, the so-called instant is almost certain, and the improved attributes will be in accordance with his beliefs Doubling what you want.

After discovering this, Linton almost didn't kneel down to Miss Wei Na.

He finally knew what it was like to be favored by the world.

【Any choice about luck, the world will stand by your side】

Of course, although Linton's current luck is very good, it still can't be used as a weapon of causality. There will be no plot to target his opponent who is immediately hit on the head by a stone falling from the sky. It might happen, but if it reaches this point, what he pins on is not luck, but [cage].

——No one will regard "luck" as a conventional weapon.

All in all, so far, Linton, the players, and everything in Lapa City are developing in a better direction. Everyone's face is full of excitement, and their hearts are filled with anticipation, and they are no longer decadent as before.

In this positive atmosphere, time also passed faster and faster.

In the blink of an eye, it is the day when [Brilliant Gladiator] starts.

"Kingdom of Heaven" player forum.

You can't grasp the virtual reality on the Internet: "Brother Meng! Tulle five cities, take the first place today!"

I'm a pervert: "Finally, I can see Xiao Hei again! To this day, I still don't know how Xiao Hei's voice passed through the barriers of skin and mucous membranes, lysozyme and macrophages in the secretions." It survives in phagocytosis, escapes the antibodies secreted by plasma cells or the lymphokines secreted by sensitized T cells, and lives in my heart.”

The top appraiser who revised it in one sentence: "Identified as soil, it is recommended to put it in the soil."

Li Zhongke: "Correct, pertinent, and to the point."

Today is also Maomao's licking dog: "It's late, although I have heard that this [Brilliant Gladiator] is very famous and is the main line, but can someone give me a popular science about the rules?"

Wanhuajing VR: "The rules of [Brilliant Gladiator] are actually quite simple. Generally speaking, they can be divided into two parts."

Wanhuajing VR: "The first half is a city-state battle, and the contestants compete as a group."

Wanhuajing VR: "After the start of the competition, each city-state will have a stronghold. This is the most important stronghold. One is counted as three units. At the same time, five neutral strongholds with one unit will be refreshed in the arena. Participants What needs to be done is to try to compete for neutral strongholds or snatch others' strongholds while defending your own strongholds, and the final ranking of the game is based on who occupies the most strongholds."

Sturdy and reliable Maginot: "According to this rule, can't we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, watch others fight, and keep silent, waiting for them to kill everyone else, leaving only us three kingdoms"

Wanhuajing VR: "You really think too much. According to the information I know, in almost all the recorded [Brilliant Gladiator] in Lapa City, it is the first object to be operated on——Who made Lapa What about a weak city? If you are weak, you will be beaten.”

Wanhuajing VR: "We will discuss the tactics later, and now we will talk about the rules for the second half."

Wanhuajing VR: "The rules of the second half are simpler, that is, throw everyone into a field for melee, with individuals as units, the longer they live, the higher the ranking, when there is only the last person left in the field, This guy is the ultimate champion in the second half."

Wanhuajing VR: "However, it is worth noting that in the past records, each individual battle in the second half will have special restrictions. For example, last time, the use of magic was prohibited, causing all magicians to become useless. Like last time, archers couldn't use bows"

Archers are all hanging on the wall: "Isn't this strengthening?"

Wanhuajing VR: "For archers, it is indeed a strengthening, because while giving debuffs, it will also apply some powerful buffs to these debuffed contestants, such as lost magicians will get strength and martial skills The bonus, while the archer is more proficient in magic, and the speed of recovering magic power is faster - at this time, it depends on your own skill reserves."

Wanhuajing VR: "Also, these restrictions are unknown, no one can predict what kind of debuff will appear next time, and this is also the biggest uncertainty factor in personal battles."

Hua's mother gave the two children a meal: "Anyone who is willing to take two steps can know the rules. I just want to ask, when will [Brilliant Gladiator] start!!!"

Wanhuajing VR: "This is not."

"It's already open."

The Lord's Mansion of Rapa City.

"Sir, you must be careful when you go this time. Although everyone will be given a magic stone to forcibly exit the secret realm when they go in, those stupid pigs who are worried all over their bodies are all darker than sauerkraut. Don’t take it lightly, once you notice something is wrong, please exit immediately, the ranking is not important to us, your safety is the most important!"

Linton smiled and watched and listened to the chatter of Sal Ruth, who was incarnate as an old lady in front of him.

In the past, she was careless and careless about anything, but at this time, she showed a thoughtfulness that she had never had before.

However, this is also normal.

As a member of the Truth Society, she is not at all interested in any [Brilliant Gladiator], any rewards bestowed by the gods, or meeting the gods.

She has only one master, and as a believer, she values ​​only her master.

"Don't worry." Linton reassured, "Unless it is necessary, I will not go to the front of the stage."

Linton's plan is the same as before, relying on the players' own operations first, and in the end, he will come out as the leader if it really fails.

Thanks to [? ? ? 】This nickname, and the fact that every time she stepped into the ring was Miss Knight, everyone thought that the owner of this nickname was Iris, not Linton.

It is also because of this that everyone knows that Iris will represent Linton in the [Brilliant Gladiator], but no one knows that Linton will also participate in it.

And this also gave Linton the most natural cover.

Faced with Linton's comfort, Sargerus's nervous expression did not decrease in the slightest: "I know, I believe in you, but this is still a very risky thing."

"I won't try to interfere with your conduct, but I hope you accept this."

Linton was slightly taken aback, and reached out to find the object that Sargerus handed over.

This is a snow-white hooded robe with a loose style that can completely cover the figure of Linton Gundam.

As a gift from the Ninth Star, this robe is naturally not a simple piece of clothing.

["Hazy" (Platinum): The robe made by [Minghai Gospel Volger] has the function of distorting cognition and reducing the sense of existence (the observer's level difference is greater than the wearer's tenth level is invalid, within tenth level, the level The higher the difference, the lesser the effect)]

Watching Linton take over the robe, Sargerus had resentment in her eyes: "Wolger is such a stinking curly goat, he was so perfunctory to make something, and he didn't even ask him to produce raw materials. The ability, the effect is absolutely impossible to be like this.”

"Thank you." Linton interrupted her words softly, and said sincerely: "Miss Sargerous, thank you."

"The fabric of this dress is very good, it just looks like it is expensive.

For Sargerus, who has always regarded money as her life, it is completely impossible to spend so much money to buy a piece of "fabric" to make a dress for herself that will definitely break.

But she did it anyway, just to keep him safer in the chaos.

Linton received this kindness, but he couldn't afford it.

What Sargerus did was actually based on his "agent" status, but he was just deceiving her.

Facing Linton's thanks, Sargerus scratched her head: "It's just a little thing."

Money is not worth mentioning to faith.

"One final confirmation." Sargerus took a slight breath, "Are you ready?"

Linton nodded.

Behind him, Iris gripped the knight's sword hilt.

"Then, let's go."

Lapa City, Arena.

Generally speaking, the arenas of all city-states are open all year round, but only today is an exception.

Because, the competition venues of [Brilliant Gladiator] are actually in the arenas of various city-states. As long as the time is up, the top [-] players in the arena will be sent away automatically.

Now, the top [-] contestants in the Lapa City Arena have all gathered in the center of the arena, waiting for the [Brilliant Gladiator] to officially start.

Among the players in Lapa City, except for Iris who was a bit out of place, everyone else was a player.

Originally No.1 Grewyn should also be among them, but she was seriously injured again because of her obsession with challenging Miss Iris, which made her miss this [Brilliant Gladiator].

Of course, with so many players gathered together, their nature made it impossible for them to be quiet.

"Brother Meng, how will you fuck other people later? Go ahead or steal the chrysanthemum?"

"That's needless to say? A player who isn't the sixth is not a good player, okay?"

"I said, I didn't even go in. I don't know what the stronghold is like, so you just want to steal your ass. What if the strongholds are easy to defend and difficult to attack?"

"You didn't even look at it, how do you know it's not easy to attack but hard to defend?"

"."

Listening to the noise around her, Iris frowned her pretty eyebrows.

Everyone communicated enthusiastically, but she didn't like the atmosphere very much.

Quietly leaving the queue, Iris dodged into a shadow.

"gentlemen."

Linton, who had already put on "Misty", raised his head slightly, and said with a slight smile, "Iris, it's been a long time since we fought side by side."

Miss Knight held her head high and said firmly, "I will win the championship for you."

Linton didn't speak, but silently helped her tidy up the broken hair scattered on her forehead.

Then, the two stood side by side, waiting for the final moment.

They didn't have to wait long.

When the bell from the distant bell tower rang, the sky at the top of the arena quietly changed, and tens of millions of mysterious runes lighted up quietly, directly turning the daytime into a starry sky.

In the next second, all the people who were supposed to leave in the arena disappeared.

And this also means.

——[Brilliant Gladiator], the official start!
