How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

"I know a lot about hookah." Coral smiled and looked to the side.

Shisha nodded seriously, "Xiaotong, very strong."

"Hey, don't put too much psychological pressure on minors."

Someone kept rolling his eyes, which made everyone laugh.

"You're still hiding your abilities even now." Black King Caesar touched my head, "I'm really looking forward to having my last fight with you, little girl."

"Then uncle, don't be eliminated early."

"Don't worry, except for you, Akan, and Rongzhe of the Imperial Epic, no one else can be a match for me, Black King Caesar."

While saying this, Black King Caesar was in high spirits, with a fierce look in his eyes. He ignored my mother's reproachful look, laughed and ruffled my hair with his hands, then left a word and walked towards a seat not far away with Baimu Sensen and others behind him.

"Haha, anyway, come on, little guy."

Chapter 145 Mr. Fu

"This uncle is so annoying."

I wrinkled my cute little nose.

My mother smiled and reached out to fix my hair. "Acheng is just like that. Don't hold back when we get to the finals. Give him a good lesson. Let him know how powerful our little Tong is. This will also help your mother vent her anger on behalf of your godmother Qiangwei."

Although the lovers are now together, she will never forget the anger that Rose had suffered before. As for the Black King Caesar, her mother still feels a little bit of blame in her heart.

"Mom, you make it sound like I can definitely win..."

"Don't I believe you?"

"Humph, you obviously didn't believe I was that powerful before."

I stuck out my tongue and looked around, "By the way, where's Dad?"

"He's talking to Uncle Fu."

"Uncle Fu?"

"Don't ask so many questions. Eat quickly or it will get cold."

My mother smiled and said nothing, placing the grilled ingredients in front of me.

Golden Hall, independent reception room on the fourth floor.

The living room is decorated elegantly and brightly, with blue floor-to-ceiling windows surrounding one wall, providing a panoramic view of the beach below.

Next to the floor-to-ceiling window is a coffee table and chair for meetings.

There is a wooden chessboard on the coffee table. The black pieces are like a dragon lying in the wild, having already trapped the white pieces and waiting to be defeated.

An old man in a Zhongshan suit was looking at the petite figure on the shore with a smile. Although he was over 60, he still looked energetic. His graying temples could not hide his rosy face. Just sitting there, he gave people a sense of imposingness as if he was standing on the edge of Mount Tai. He was simply holding a few chess pieces in his hands, but he had a sense of mastering the mountains and rivers.

"Haha, his spirit and energy are very good, he is a good candidate. What's more rare is his determination and his ability to control tension. Those guys under Ating deserved their defeat."

"Mr. Fu, you are too kind. I just have better talent and luck."

My father said modestly.

My father has never lowered his posture in front of others, but the old man in front of him is none other than his immediate superior in the military region, who still has a very high prestige even after retiring from the military. When he was young, apart from his ability, it was the support of the other party that enabled him to rise to the top in the military. It is no exaggeration to say that apart from his parents, Mr. Fu is the elder he respects the most.

And other people don't know, but he knows clearly that the military has actually been involved in the era a long time ago.

The Ting mentioned by Mr. Fu is the president of the Ares Guild. Ares was originally established in several modern military online games, and was only established by several military teams for simulation training.

Later, as online games became popular, they attracted the attention of the military. After discovering that the bioelectric current of the virtual helmet could train nerve reactions and that the skills in the game could also be reflected in reality, the military invested in Ares while keeping its original framework unchanged, and sent military talents to achieve the training effect.

There are reserve forces of special operations forces, as well as fresh blood from the ace forces of the navy, army and air force.

The main force and elite groups are all composed of military members.

This is also the reason why Ares gives people the impression of being ruthless and daring, yet low-key and inconspicuous. Similar examples include the scorching sun of the Constantana Empire and the morning star of the Alvia Empire.

And I met several elite members of Ares during the points round-robin tournament. In the promotion round, I even defeated the top five fighters of Ares, who have already entered the special forces reserve list. This is the reason for Mr. Fu's current remarks.

The old man turned his gaze back to the chessboard, put down the chess pieces and brewed himself a cup of Biluochun tea.

"But you, haven't you decided to take that step yet?"

"Mr. Fu's move is truly brilliant. I am ashamed of myself."

"Haha, you have learned a few words of flattery over the years."

The old man laughed and scolded, but he was not in a hurry and sipped his tea leisurely.

And just when the reception room fell silent.

My father suddenly moved and dropped the white piece in his hand onto the chessboard.

Deng.

The chess pieces knock on the board, making a sound like a dragon's roar.

Amid the murderous momentum of the black dragon approaching, a cloud suddenly parted the sky. Bai Zi, who was surrounded and saw that the situation was hopeless, turned into a dragon again, leaped out from an inconspicuous corner in the vast wilderness, with his dragon head raised high, shocking everyone.

It was not only a breakthrough, but also a sudden change in the entire chess situation.

The old man looked at his blackie who was being killed to pieces in front of him, and the tea he held in his hand stopped in mid-air for a long time without moving. After a long while, he came back to his senses, put down the teacup abruptly, and clapped his hands and cheered.

"Good, good, good! What a great move! Hidden Dragon in the Abyss!"

"Mr. Fu has given in."

My father held his head high and lowered his brows, remaining humble yet showing a certain kind of pride.

The old man put away the smile on his face and looked at his father with a sharp gaze, "Have you really decided?"

My father looked straight into that gaze without any fear.

"The burdens she carries are not something a child of her age should bear. I cannot help her share the pressure, but as a father I should at least protect her from the wind and rain."

The old man smiled, put down the unfinished chess game, stood up from his chair, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and stood with his hands behind his back.

"Then go ahead and do it. It's good to sweep the house."

My father was stunned. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He had thought of several other excuses, but he had no place to use them. However, he immediately reacted, stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Don't thank me. My old friends and I also feel that the hands outside are a little too restless."

……

Keep moving forward, keep moving forward.

This is the theme of the annual competitive challenge finals after the leisure time on the beach.

In the elimination match of the 32nd to 16th place, I faced off against the only chief paladin from Holy Angel who made it to the finals.

A full set of top-grade dark gold suit inlaid with gems, plus a legendary equipment, its strength is self-evident, but even so, I easily ended the battle with a mage within half an hour after the start.

And until his death, the other party never got within thirty yards of me.

At the age of sixteen, I met Wan Lai Ju Jing, the chief assassin of the empire's epic. His strength was stronger than Posa, Tian Kong Si Ji and others, and was almost the same as Sister Ye Yuan and Chu Ci. However, he still lost to my more skilled fighting skills of the thief profession.

After two fierce elimination rounds, only a few people remained on the stage.

Cecilia was defeated by Rongzhe and stopped in the top 32, but she got a spot in the resurrection match just like Rose Godmother.

Gray Liunian was eliminated from the quarterfinals because he met Black King Caesar in advance, but the intensity of that match was called the most exciting knockout match. The two sides fought for nearly half an hour. Although Gray Liunian was defeated in the end, he forced Black King Caesar to use some of his trump cards. As a wizard transforming into a warlock, it was already an outstanding result.

Sister Qiu Ru and Sister Ye Yuan also encountered strong opponents and failed to advance to the quarterfinals.

However, they still have the opportunity to compete with the other five players who were eliminated from the top 16 to the top 8, and the four people including Cecilia and Godmother Rose who were selected from the first two rounds of the resurrection match to participate in the ultimate resurrection match to compete for the last two places in the top ten.

Chapter 146 Semi-finals

As the final match came to an end, the list of the top ten in the empire was finally announced.

[Against the Tide: Black King Caesar] [Alice: Yitong, Witch Irene, Gray Years] [Epic of the Empire: Rongzhe, Snow Eagle]

[Eternal Spire: Gray Leaves][Storm: Honor the King and Expel the Barbarians][Rose Heart: Hookah][Ares: Punishment]

It can be seen that the strength of the major guilds is evenly distributed, and most of them are in the top ten. Although no members of Star Mythology are in the top ten, the best-performing Zhen Mo is only one head short of the 12th place, and is a bit unlucky in that they met Rong Zhe, the favorite candidate for the championship, when they advanced to the top 16.

In comparison, the Guild Alliance's performance was dismal.

Among the four major guilds, only Storm Blackhand Studio's Zunwang Rangyi made the list. Blood Moon's chief Xuehong was killed by Black King Caesar and stopped in the top 16, ranking 11th ahead of Zhenmo. The other three guilds and the secondary guilds of all sizes did not have many prominent rankings.

Two days after the list was finalized, the final battle for the top ten began, which was still a brutal single-elimination match.

However, among them, Gray Liunian and Snow Eagle advanced from the resurrection match, so they were not eligible to participate in the competition, but were directly announced as the ninth and tenth places by the official.

The final championship competition will still be held among the quarterfinals.

Shisha versus Black King Caesar; Rongzhe versus Respect the King and Expel the Barbarians; Yiwen versus Gray Ye; I versus Punish the Sin.

Unlike the light-armored warriors I encountered before, the pressure that Fa Zui gave me was not much less than that of Sister Shuiyan. No wonder he was Ares's trump card, but the opponent's luck was not very good. He was randomly assigned to a plain map without too many obstructions, and the occasional hills were too gentle to hide his movements.

Even though light-armored warriors have an advantage over other warriors in speed, their advantage on the plains is very limited.

I relied on the excellent long-range output skills of the dark magic and the powerful control ability to control the battle situation.

Although Fazui had successfully dealt several bursts of damage in close combat with his superb skills and positioning, causing considerable trouble, he had successfully resolved them by using his skillful use of knowledge retrieval and displacement spells.

In the end, he used the Sin's Kiss and Unholy Eternity on the Immortal's Staff, as well as the Black Dragon Trample reserved in the Immortal Dragon Language, and killed the unexpected Sinner in one fell swoop.

And the other sides.

Rongzhe defeated Zunwang Rangyi with low HP and entered the semi-finals, which made Black King Caesar feel a little regretful. He had no hatred against Zunwang Rangyi and even admired him a little, but their positions were different after all. Black King Caesar expected to completely crush the latter in the finals, even if he exposed his trump card. Nothing could be more suitable to defeat the Guild Alliance's remaining face in this competition.

But it’s not bad that it was solved by Rongzhe.

As for him, he naturally won the game without a doubt. No matter how strong Shisha was, there was still an obvious gap between him and Black King Caesar, the uncrowned king who had been sitting firmly on the throne of the strongest warrior in the Orwen Empire since the launch of the server.

Although Ivan successfully defeated Gray Ye and completed the so-called "revenge" for Cecilia, he and I became an unexpected dark horse in the eyes of many people.

Or rather, it was beyond many people's expectations that the two of us would eventually make it to the top ten.

Even after so many games, he has accumulated a lot of popularity and fans. But most people are rational. In their eyes, no matter how cute the appearance is, it can't make up for the gap in consciousness, reaction and other favorable factors brought by age.

But I didn't expect that this is still a preconceived and fixed mindset.

Perhaps this is also related to the inherent nature of the battles in the game. Outsiders and even ordinary players who make up the majority of the traffic in the era can only watch the excitement and see the gap in equipment at most. Only a few masters and professional players can understand the true strength of both sides through fighting.

In the final analysis, the surging popularity has not yet been linked to recognition of strength.

There is no need to worry too much about this issue, because as long as either I or Yuwen can eventually rank in the top three and obtain official qualification certification, all doubts will naturally disappear.

But what is not a coincidence and is a little dramatic is that

In the semi-finals on the second day, after random selection, I and Yiwen competed for the top four.

On the other side, the Black King Caesar faced Rongzhe, who was also a favorite to win the championship. Many people jokingly called this the scene where the championship battle was decided in advance. The reason for this kind of talk was naturally related to the situation mentioned above.

"Sure enough, it is still necessary to use results to break their stereotypes."

I shook my head, somewhat unconvinced.

Did the loli eat your rice or steal your quilt? On what basis does the loli not have the strength to compete for the championship or runner-up? I'm so angry. When will the loli be able to stand up... Forget it, even if she stands up, she's not as tall as others, so she'd better just sit down.

"But now, let's beat up that girl Yiwen first."

System prompt: The Epoch Annual Competition Challenge - semi-finals will officially begin after 30 seconds of countdown.

比赛地图【A09】，限定时间【13：00—17：00】，比赛对阵双方：【以瞳（118级大盗贼）】—【魔女依琳（118级大盗贼）】，目前共有【6947177名】观众选择收看比赛。

The nearly 70 million viewers clearly reflected the popularity of the semi-finals, and the match between Black King Caesar and Rong Zhe attracted over 100 million viewers. Together, this means that nearly one-third of the country's netizens are looking forward to the semi-final match and its outcome, which is worthy of the popularity of the phenomenal online game Jiyuan.

When I saw this system prompt, I could already see the surrounding scene clearly.

In the dense jungle, shrubs grow everywhere. The sun shines through the treetops above and casts golden spots on the ground. The fragrance of soil and flowers wafts in the air, along with the fishy and salty sea breeze that drifts in from afar.

Obviously this is a map of an island jungle, and the sea surrounding the island forms a natural barrier to the stadium.

Sun, sea, jungle.

Beneath the beautiful scenery there is a fierce competition, which creates a sense of contrast.

Moreover, this competition map is similar to the Top 100 competition, and also covers an area of ​​nearly ten square kilometers. Excluding the beaches around the island, the jungle in the middle covers an area of ​​about seven or eight square kilometers. It is easy to hide two people, especially two thieves who are known as masters of hide-and-seek.

It is estimated that the audience watching this game have already prepared themselves for a long period of testing between the two sides before the official battle.

But if you think so, you are totally wrong.

He used Lawrence's phantom, but did not immediately let them disperse into the jungle to search for Ivan's shadow. Instead, he waited beside them, then summoned Ahri and gave an order to the noisy little guy.
