Chapter 1184 ? P.L.A.N.T's Little Phoenix Anne Hasta Strikes! ?
At 21:16:18 pm on August 15, 2045, it was only two hours before the final registration deadline for the "Tenth Oasis Cup" Gundam Contest, and until this time, a certain The unconscionable scapula warrior Ai Qi finally completed a certain task, and immediately contacted a bad little girl who had been waiting impatiently in the game, and used an important game item that the other party needed The payment method was mailed.
'alright! '
'Annie! Your airframe, this 'vf-25 messiah', I have already done it for you, but I want to make a statement: because I am not familiar with this kind of transformable airframe, so I just follow the system provided The data and the best plan are restored and maintained. I didn't dare to make any modifications to it. If you lose, don't blame me for not helping you? '
'I really did my best, I promise you! '
After mailing out the airframe that the other party had urged several times, and the game props that shrunk down like a toy airplane, and seeing the message that the other party confirmed receipt, Edge finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed. down.
"You will lose!"
ε=(?ˇεˇ??))) Bah! !
"Wow! I saw it, and it's really fixed?!"
?(????)?
After spitting on some bad guy who dared to curse herself for losing in the communication, Annie hurriedly checked the repaired machine she received, which was related to her being able to participate in the competition.
"Big Eddie, you wait first, people sign up for the competition first!"
☆⌒(*^-゜)vTHX!!
After finishing speaking, Anne received and checked the 'vf-25 Messiah' body, and found that there was no problem, then impatiently opened a certain application interface again, and asked the person who rejected her application twice. The organizers of submitted their application for the competition.
During the day, Annie finally managed to get Samantha, that is, the damaged 'vf-25 Messiah' in the hands of Miss Artemis and the others, and handed it over to Edge as soon as possible. To spend a huge amount of money on emergency repairs, and narrowly allowed her to sign up with the body at the last moment and wait for the feedback of the application for the competition.
And the price she must pay for obtaining that machine is: she must protect Artemis and their group of useless 'IOI Rebels' subordinates from being persecuted by the IOI's force in the real world until they find Easter egg game over?
Because, they are said to be very confident in deciphering Halliday’s clues, finding easter eggs and defeating that IOI online creative company, and the only worry is that the other party’s illegal armed personnel will attack the door again in the real world?
Although Annie really wanted to say that she could defeat those IOI villains by herself without the need for easter eggs, without the trouble of inheriting a certain Halliday’s stock and gaining control of the game... But, since that Arte Miss only made such a small and simple request. She was so lazy that she didn't want to explain more. She just had patience and decided to live in the garden room on the roof of the other party's dilapidated building for a period of time in the future.
"..."
(ー`′ー)
"Why is it so long..."
?(?`^′?)?
Now, Annie is still waiting patiently for the reply to the application she submitted just now.
This is already her third application...
In order to prevent some people from repeatedly registering maliciously and causing channel blockage, the organizer has specially restricted each player to register up to three times. Once the maximum number of three applications is reached, they will no longer be able to register... So, Annie, who was waiting now, was very nervous and anxious, for fear that some mistakes would cause her to fail the application again.
If that's the case, I'm afraid she will definitely go to the office of the competition organizer along the network cable,
To grab some bad guy by the collar and beat her up for not agreeing to her participation in a game that seemed like fun?
Ding~!
Congratulations! Player Anne Hastur, your application to participate in the competition with your 'vf-25 Messiah' has now been officially approved! We now inform you: Please make relevant preparations, and please be sure to enter Portal No. 02136 of the "Tenth 'Oasis Cup' Gundam Contest" before 24:00:00 standard time tonight to participate In the first stage of the competition, those who fail to meet the deadline will be regarded as automatically giving up the qualification for the competition.
announce!
"!!"
!(;?o?)o
"Great, Edge, the application has finally been approved! Moreover, the first stage of the competition will start in more than two hours!"
?*. ?(ˊωˋ*)??*.
Seeing the pop-up holographic interface of a successful application, Annie was startled at first, and then finally cheered directly, and shared with a certain unscrupulous profiteer who helped her a lot in the communication.
'Yeah? '
'That's good, it's not in vain that I work overtime and don't even have time to eat dinner, so I have to fix it for you first...'
After hearing that a certain little guy had successfully passed the application for the competition, Edge, the unconscionable scapula warrior, heaved a sigh of relief, saying that his efforts were not in vain.
"I won't tell you anymore!"
|???ω??)???
"I'm going to find that portal now, goodbye~!!"
-=????=?????(?)?
After finishing speaking, Annie turned off the communication in a hurry without waiting for the other party to continue to say something, then turned around and ran to the bustling oasis crowd in the distance, ready to find her No. 02136 portal.
And as for some unconscionable guy whom she chooses to ignore because of temporary loss of use value, she will not care about it! !
(…)
(● ̄(?) ̄●)
...
Soon, the time came to 23:45 on the second night, and five people including Edge, Dadong, Ash, Parsifal, and Artemis all came to the "Tenth 'Oasis Cup' Gundam Contest". The venue and entered a virtual box that they had already booked in advance.
'Hi~! '
‘Pasifal and Artemis, you two are finally here? '
Seeing the two being teleported in, Edge immediately greeted them.
'How's it going, have you cracked that last clue? '
Immediately afterwards, Edge asked what he was most concerned about, which was the last clue of Halliday's egg game.
After all, the bad girl who is ranked number one on the standings, the guy who even dared to attack Halliday's incarnation must not have talked to bother to solve the clues, since she is still in the mood to participate in the Gundam Contest You can see it in the game! Therefore, Edge felt that their hope of deciphering that clue might really only be placed on Parsifal or Artemis in front of them.
'ah! A clue...'
'not yet! '
Parsifal and Artemis looked at each other, then Qiqi shook his head dejectedly and spread his hands. So far, they still have no idea at all, otherwise, they would not have the heart to come here to watch this game.
'That's a pity...'
'But don't you worry! '
'I've heard that, IOI or anyone else who passed the level of "The Shining" and got the second emerald key has not been able to crack that clue, so don't worry too much, at least everyone is now They are on the same starting line, and in case anyone cracks it, according to your score, you will definitely be notified as soon as possible. '
Seeing that the two seemed a little frustrated, Edge hurriedly spoke out in relief.
'hope so……'
'correct! '
‘Where’s that little Anne, is she here? Why didn’t we see her? '
Clues or something, Artemis felt that they had racked their brains for the past two days, so she didn't want to talk about that topic anymore, and hurriedly asked strangely while looking at the box.
'Her? '
'She should have come long ago! Maybe it's time to prepare now, and when it officially starts later, I think we will be able to see her performance! '
In fact, Edge doesn't know where that little guy is, but thinking about how the other party was in a hurry two hours ago, I believe he must have been in the competition venue. Besides, the other party is a contestant, so he will definitely not follow him The audience like them appeared in the auditorium.
'That's it...'
‘Has the list of players participating in this year’s competition and the data of the airframes come out yet? '
Artemis was a little worried, because she knew that the damaged 'vf-25 Messiah' they accidentally obtained was just an ordinary mass-produced machine. What's too outstanding performance and advantages.
‘I don’t know, it probably hasn’t come out yet, isn’t there still fifteen minutes left? '
Edge just waited with folded arms, and began to scan this virtual gigantic 'Colosseum'-like venue that appeared in the cosmic void, looking at the bustling crowd and all kinds of people in the audience seats. lighting decoration.
'...'
'You say, that little guy, does she have any hope of winning? '
Parsifal asked hesitantly.
If it was in the past, he definitely wouldn't think that the other party could win, and he didn't want the other party to win! However, something has happened recently that has changed his impression of that little guy a little bit, so if his friends think she has a chance of winning, maybe he will put all his gold coins on On that little guy?
‘I don’t know, but I heard that her driving skills are not bad. When she was on Pandora, she even robbed a Zaku II from the Fan League, and beat and trampled a lot of people to death because of it? '
Edge is quite clear about the deeds of a certain little guy on the planet Pandora. Certain things are clearly known better than others.
'! ! '
‘How to grab Gundam? ! '
Hearing Ai Qi's words, Da Dong, a warrior sitting on a stool beside him, suddenly asked curiously.
'ah……'
'Who knows? Anyway, she just grabbed it! '
'...'
'What happened after that? '
'later? '
'Later, the body she snatched was soon hacked by the fans of the League, but it was a pity that she didn't even remember to take away the wreckage. Didn't she know that it could be repaired, even if it wasn't Is it worth a lot of money to repair it? '
Ai Qi said bitterly, thinking that a bad little girl who knew how to be poor every day lost at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins out of thin air like a waste of money?
'All right……'
‘I hope she doesn’t lose too badly this time, right? '
Parsifal and Artemis looked at each other, and then prayed tacitly. Because they came to a conclusion through the conversation between Aiqi and Dadong, that is: A certain little girl's mecha manipulation skills seem to be very ordinary? Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hacked to death after stealing a machine.
'! ! '
'Very good! The time is up, the Gundam Contest is about to begin! ! '
Dadong, who longed for Gundam infinitely, but regretted not being able to participate in view of his ability and lack of a real machine, was annoyed, and stood up excitedly from his position, and went out The sound reminded the friends who still planned to chat.
At this time, sixteen large-scale portals and sixteen different machines appeared out of thin air in the distant starry sky, and amidst bursts of gorgeous fireworks and colorful beams of light, On a huge virtual digital graphics platform, first a commentator dressed in a non-mainstream style appeared, and then the other party held a microphone to face the bodies of the contestants and the millions of spectators around the scene. for his performance:
‘Guests and audience friends who came to the scene! '
‘Good evening everyone~! ! '
'Today, the exciting "10th Oasis Cup Gundam Contest" is finally about to officially start. Have you all placed your bets yet? '
As soon as the non-mainstream commentator finished speaking, there was boos at the scene. Some audience members seemed very dissatisfied with this? Of course, there seemed to be whistles and cheers mixed in, and apparently someone was involved in some of the fun off-field play of these games, as he said?
'oh! All right……'
'Maybe, I should say, are you all ready? '
'As you all probably know, in this competition, our organizers have made some small reforms to the rules and events of the competition. Go on a long-term PVE mode adventure first, and wait until they have fully exerted their respective abilities and exercised their skills, and the next stage of the game will start with those high-quality players who have won or survived from the PVE mode. The qualified part of the players will be selected to enter the next stage of the competition...'
'And those inferior players who are not qualified and whose skills are not up to the standard will be ruthlessly eliminated in the PVE project! '
'Hello! stop! ! '
The commentator just wanted to continue talking nonsense, but the audience at the scene bought it terribly, and immediately started making noises. Some players even took out various rifles, shoulder-fired missiles, etc. to shoot at the commentator's phantom and platform and bombarded?
'...'
'As for the specific rules, I won't say much here, because I believe that you should have read it, so I officially announce here: "The Tenth 'Oasis Cup' Gundam Contest" is now officially start! '
In order not to silence the audience, and in order not to affect the ratings and advertising revenue, the commentator hurriedly ended some unnecessary prologues early after seeing that the audience did not buy it, and began to announce the official start of the game.
'Let's see the players on the field! '
‘Contestant No. 1 please! '
'She is...'
‘The little phoenix, the Valkyrie, and the never-falling firehawk from P.L.A.N.T—the daughter of darkness, contestant Anne Hastur! ! '
"Hi everyone!"
! ?(???′)???
A fighter plane flew out, and then, the head portrait of Annie's cockpit was projected on the huge screen directly above the arena, allowing millions of viewers present to see the cute little girl who was waving at them carelessly. figure.
'! ! '
'is her? '
‘God, what is that demon? ! '
'Damn it! '
'Where's my shoulder-fired nuke? Let me knock her down! ! '
'Stop! You can't hurt her here! ! '
'...'
'It's over! She is definitely going to die on the field. Who will be cheaper with a bounty of more than 100 million? '
‘Κατηγ? ρησε! ! '
‘сволочь! '
'¥x-on:...%##! ! '
In an instant, there were bursts of boos and noisy and chaotic voices.
‘Everyone please be quiet! ! '
'ah! my eyes! Which bastard dropped the nuke? I advise you to save money and stop wasting your stinky money, because here, it is useless for you to throw black holes! '
Seeing a burst of bright light that almost blinded the eyes in vain, the holographic projection of the commentator hastily cursed and stopped the road.
'Yes……'
'Yes! I believe that all the audience friends here know her, or have they been bullied and played by her? But no matter what, she participated in this competition, so here, in this special competition venue, any attack you make against her will be ruled invalid! '
' Closer to home! '
‘What kind of grievances do you have, you can settle accounts with her after you go out, but let’s take a look at her body first, is that... an airplane? ! '
'oh! '
‘Sorry, I’m not blind, and audience friends certainly aren’t either, because it is indeed a serious mecha! ! '
Immediately afterwards, the commentator saw that the audience seemed to be very concerned about which female player of darkness, and then began to introduce that machine in detail.

———————
"It's a very ordinary machine. I remember that in the past few years, someone piloted a similar machine to participate in the competition. Which unlucky guy didn't even hold on for three minutes and was destroyed..."
‘As for her driving skills, we can wait and see? '
Immediately afterwards, after introducing Annie's identity and body data, the commentator who was obviously not too optimistic about the little girl smacked his lips and began to introduce other pilots one by one.
For example, the second contestant is a masked man who can't see his face, and is also a pilot named 'Yo Hey 321' from the Fan League guild?
And what he drives is an all-metal frenzy M9 Gernsback (ガーンズバック), and it is still a commander-level specification. It is the latest third-generation AS used by Misril! Its biggest feature is that the head assembly is equipped with a composite horn antenna that can strengthen the sensor function, and thereby obtain the electronic warfare capability required by the frontline commander, and can use the ultra-high data link device'-5 (comprehensive Tactical communication control system)' to analyze, manage, and integrate huge information on the battlefield, with ultra-high performance surpassing existing airframes, especially far surpassing other ASs in terms of high mobility and concealment!
It can even disable electronic devices such as various sensors and radars through ECS, and it also has a stealth function that cannot be discerned by the naked eye!
Moreover, it is said that it is also equipped with a BUG-like 'λ-DRIVER' driver, which is the legendary driver named lambda driver or lambda! It is one of the highest manifestations of black technology in "Full Metal Frenzy", which is to "transform attack and defense impulses" into energy with physical attributes, rather than pure "ideas"!
When the pilot has a desire beyond fantasy for something, the general emblem activated is full force, and the effect is a desire as imagined! There are only 3 ways to defeat λ-DRIVER:
Use λ-DRIVER directly against λ-DRIVER!
Attack by surprise, such as using a sniper to directly destroy the machine before the pilot reacts!
Break the driver's reaction time with quick moves!
But it's a pity that this ability should belong to a certain type of converting brain waves, that is, personal consciousness and will, into external manifestations. But because it consumes the so-called mental power, the damage to the body after use cannot be ignored-it is said that it is easy to cause brain damage? Therefore, after the official research and judgment of the competition, it is believed that this λ-driver does not have the ability to completely destroy the rules and fairness of the competition, so this body is allowed to be selected?
And the third player is the Strike Freedom Gundam driven by a Gundam enthusiast from IOI Online Creative Company. It is a very gorgeous and powerful machine, and it is also the most popular player in this championship. No one !
Because, the power of this machine is beyond doubt!
It integrates all the top technologies of the Gundam SEED world. It has a beam shield with an impregnable defense, armor cutting technology and the unparalleled mobility brought by the radiant carrier, and the super driving performance brought by the PS armor internal skeleton. , plus the terrifying firepower of a total of fifteen artillery pieces! Moreover, it is also equipped with a 'super-advanced deuteron' that is used in conjunction with the nuclear engine and the deuteron beam charging system to obtain the overwhelming output of the engine...
In short, this is a mecha that ordinary people and guilds can't afford, let alone buy. It's not an exaggeration to say that it is a work of art accumulated by IOI with money, right?
And this is why it has successfully become the most popular player in this competition!
But unfortunately, it is said that this machine was built with Kira Yamato as the driver, so the extremely complex weapon system of this machine can only be used at its maximum performance by the NPC Kira Yamato? As for the manipulative ability of the ashes-level enthusiast hired by IOI Online Creative Company, it is open to question...
However, many people believe that even if a pig is manipulating it, it will definitely achieve good results!
Otherwise, there would not be so many people putting so much money on it.
The other players also have a variety of mechas, such as "Zhanyue" and "Lancelot" from the rebellious Lelouch, the No. 1 and No. 2 units from EVA, and the Gundam 00 Those messy bodies of the blah blah blah...
finally,
A certain commentator finally explained all the sixteen contestants and their mech origins and data briefly or in detail when his mouth was dry. Amidst the cheers of the audience in Ji's oasis, they began to speed up and fly or run into the portals and disappeared without a trace.
'...'
'This is the end? What about the Gundam Contest? ! '
Seeing that there was no Gundam in the entire venue, only the empty venues and those huge portals were left. He didn't understand the rules of the competition, and Parsifal, who had never read the regulations of this competition, was a little bit confused. asked strangely.
'Well……'
'They are now going to challenge the PVE independent copy of the first project separately. After the end, players who survive or score up to a certain standard are eligible to enter the next link, which is the most familiar PVP stage of the Gundam Contest ? '
‘However, before that, if we need it, we can always access the PVE dungeon records of any player through the options page of the competition group to check their performance in the dungeon! '
'Like this? '
Seeing that Parsifal really didn't seem to understand, the Dadong at the side slowly explained to him and directly demonstrated how to access the copy of Anne's "Macros F Void Diva". Leading a certain little girl to fly the VF-25 Messiah in the vast dark universe starry sky.
'It turns out that...'
'But, since this is the case, what are we still doing here? '
'this……'
"It seems that there is really nothing to see today, it's just an opening ceremony..."
'tsk! '
'Look, a lot of people have left. '
'Let's go! Let's go back too, anyway, now the PVE stage can be seen anywhere, there is no need to stay here all the time! Moreover, we can also think about it by the way, what happened to Halliday's last clue? '
'Alright! '
'...'
Soon, as the contestants entered the dungeon portals and disappeared into the field, as the long PVE stage unfolded, this huge cosmic arena-like place began to gradually become quiet, and then, look After the opening ceremony and the spectators who got to know the players well, they left the venue with a lot of cursing or other complaints, leaving only this huge and empty place.
