white star stealing star

There is less than one day left before the competition restarts, and almost all players have arrived.

Except for two people.

One is the Butcher. The protagonist of the proxy fight incident has not yet appeared under the spotlight. He only posted a personal notice on the official website due to the constant questioning and pressure from the audience.

In the announcement, Butcher swore that he played the first two games by himself and did not look for foreign aid. However, for the third game, he directly stated that due to the influence of public opinion, he had serious psychological problems and needed to temporarily He left the public eye and announced his retirement.

This decision makes what the butcher said in the first half of the story completely devoid of credibility.

In the minds of some viewers, the butcher fight incident has been concluded. Although this incident has greatly undermined the martial arts training ground's declaration of fairness and justice, in the end no one can provide concrete evidence to prove the authenticity of the revelations, so everyone naturally discusses it. After a few words, no one cared.

Another player who never arrived was Flamingo, also known as Miyou.

She didn't show up and publicly withdraw from the competition like the Butcher. She just submitted her withdrawal through the official martial arts training ground. The reason she gave could only be summed up in four words: personal reasons.

But Bai Xing still learned about the situation in Mi You's family from frequent contacts with Xu Min.

Her father died suddenly. In order to prevent the family's property from being targeted by her coveted peers, she had to support the family's factory as the first heir and deal with the aftermath. Therefore, naturally there was no way to continue the competition.

The night before the competition, there were only fourteen players left who were determined to continue participating.

That night, Silicon Bumi re-informed the competition rules in the studio. Since the current number of participants has been seriously lower than the number required in the competition rules, the competition rules need to be slightly changed.

"Players who choose Yin-Yang Ball will be assigned an additional identity of Yin or Yang from the beginning of the game. This identity is hidden for both Yin and Yang players, so other players will also get an additional task, that is Find out who they really are."

"It seems that in this game, the existence of you and the Great Demon God is the most important." In the player resting hall, Black Widow was sitting cross-legged beside Bai Xing while doing crochet.

At this time, there were five people sitting scattered in the entire player hall. Except for White Star and Black Widow, there were three other people whom White Star and Black Widow didn't know very well.

These days, Bai Xing is either alone or with Black Widow, but he rarely sees Red Gold Storm.

When asked about Black Widow, she avoided the topic in a vague way, completely losing the previous intimacy between the two of them going in and out together.

"Get an extra identity..." Bai Xing pondered what Si Bumi said, and participated in two competitions, which made them unknowingly study the meaning of the words spoken by these commentators. "Extra? Does this mean that before this, the Great Demon God and I also had an identity that belonged to black or white, not in between."

"I think so." Black Widow moved her hands and her mind. "Have you ever thought that this competition is not necessarily a team competition."

"Well..." Bai Xing nodded. "The rules of the first two games were based on teams, but this time it says: The players who successfully leave the maze with their characteristics will advance to the semi-finals."

"Are we allowed to fight on our own?" Black Widow turned to look at her.

"I don't know." Bai Xing clasped his hands behind his head, "I can only take one step and see what happens."

Black Widow's crocheting hand stopped. She seemed to be hesitant. After thinking twice, she asked Bai Xing something. "Have you heard about what happened in Jiyan Star recently?" she asked. "I always feel that... this year's finals arrangements seem to be to cover up something."

Shirahoshi looked at her.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it." Black Widow was stared at by Bai Xing. She unconfidently separated the yarn on her crochet hook with her hands, but she continued, "Like people on the Internet said, I don't believe there are people in the world. There are so many coincidences. Wherever we go, something will happen on any planet."

"Including everything that happened on Jiyan Star, it seems that there is some necessary reason for all of this to happen."

The two planets that happened one after another, the Jiyan Star that was under control and opposed to the Federation, Yuan Xilong and Yi Jin who were exposed by proxy and were eliminated from the competition...

Bai Xing knew that the Federation and the Jishi Army began to tentatively fight each other.

But others have no idea about this. Even so, it does not prevent people like Black Widow from starting to think that they are tools that help some kind of conspiracy take shape.

"Maybe." Bai Xing shrugged and said nothing more, "Focus on the game, don't think about these things."

Black Widow didn't respond, just stroking the thread and winding it up bit by bit.

The next day, the third game officially kicked off.

All the contestants were taken away separately and left the martial arts training ground one by one via small aircraft.

Camera equipment followed the whole process. In this competition, in order to prevent Miss Qianji from drilling a hole and losing tracking when the entire team jumped off a cliff in the second game, each mecha was equipped with an additional small camera. .

At 12 o'clock, all players were assigned to the competition area located on the eastern continent.

The inhabited areas of human activity on Jiyan Planet are basically on the northwest continent. There are fewer active volcanoes here, the terrain is flatter, the lava flowing in the ground is deeper, and the temperature is lower. It can barely meet the requirements for construction and crop growth. and biological activity.

On the opposite side of the hemisphere, on the Eastern Continent, about 6% of the entire planet's active volcanoes are located here. The largest volcano is more than 4000 meters above sea level, named Jordan. Its eruption can affect most of the planet, and together with other volcanoes, it can affect 3% of the entire planet. /2 ignited into a sea of ​​​​fire, but fortunately it was in the eastern continent, which was the farthest distance from the settlement area in the northwest continent.

On the Eastern Continent, there is always a high temperature close to 60°. Humans can only wear constant temperature suits to move around. This is similar to the Satoya planet. The combat masters in the mecha naturally need to wear an extra constant temperature suit. Only by wearing it can you ensure that you won't die of heat in the mecha.

In addition, players must also be careful about the lava flowing everywhere and the caves on the surface that will emit super-hot steam at any time. These steams with a pressure of up to [-] degrees can overturn mechas of insufficient size in an instant. If hit head-on, The combat master in the mecha is like food in a steam pressure cooker. It can be steamed in just a few seconds. Even a thermostatic suit cannot avoid this danger.

Therefore, officials have set up a protective fence in these areas where there are holes.

What a coincidence, Qian Ji's settlement point is surrounded by a large number of these holes that spray out white high-temperature mist from time to time.

The red earth ground was wet, like a cracked scar. Unprepared, a tube of hot-looking mist shot out into the sky not far from Qianji. With a hiss, the mist was quickly dried by the air. Transpiration, in the distance, a round-shaped magma pool is slowly rolling with red and dazzling solution. From time to time, bubbles will swell, and then swell and burst, and then the splashed solution will drip on the surface of the edge, visible to the naked eye. It turns black and hard at a rapid rate.

This is really a real scene of hell, Shirahoshi thought to himself as he wiped his sweat in the mecha.
