Chapter 976: The First Match of the Competition, Model Battle Royale!
The day after the banquet, the World Championship officially opened. Yang Hui had already appeared at the banquet last night. At the opening ceremony of the official competition, he naturally had to go on stage to say a few words. Although he did not prepare a script in advance, this small scene was too simple for Yang Hui. He said a few words to congratulate the successful players, encourage the failed players, and promote the model battle and the World Championship. It was over.
"Then next, announce the first stage of the official competition!" Kirara served as the host in the center of the venue. This was an opportunity that Lux and Shirley had fought for her. It was also a major achievement of Kirara's participation in the banquet yesterday. She changed her usual exaggerated style, while maintaining her cuteness and liveliness, and also added a sense of dignity and elegance.
"Kirara-chan~!!!!!!!" It was obvious that Ricardo Fellini, who was still drunk, stood in the crowd and shouted with a cheering sign. Last night, he and Kirara had developed a relationship beyond friendship, so today he naturally wanted to be the number one fan.
However...Glico, Scott and other players who are familiar with Ricardo Fellini all stared at him with dead fish eyes and silently distanced themselves from him.
"The first stage of the individual official competition is the points competition, which consists of the "fun~taste~" competitions of various events. The content and grouping of each fun competition will be announced in the morning of the day. Every day is divided into morning and afternoon, with two events respectively. The winner of each fun competition will get 3 points, the runner-up 2 points, and the third place 1 point. The points competition lasts for a total of one week, that is, 14 events. After all the competitions are completed, the total points will be calculated. The top 16 in the standings will enter the knockout stage and finally decide the champion!
After the individual competition is over, the team competition will be held. The team competition is the same as the individual competition. The first stage of the points competition..."
Kilala naturally saw Ricardo Fellini, who stood out from the crowd, but her excellent professional quality made her secretly send a kiss in that direction and then continue her work. After introducing the entire schedule of the official competition, Kirala made way, the central ground of the venue opened, and a huge battle platform rose up. It was larger than the battle platform of the legion battle and could accommodate up to 500 people.
"First, let me announce the first event of the points race! Model Battle Royale!"
"Oh~!!!!"XN
"Battle Royale?"XN
Although the audience didn't know what Battle Royale meant, it didn't stop them from cheering. Anyway, as long as there was an exciting game to watch, it was enough.
The contestants frowned. According to the reminder they received yesterday, they guessed that the first event this afternoon would be a melee, but it turned out to be wrong. Battle Royale... It doesn't sound like a good name.
Then, Kirara introduced the content of Battle Royale in detail with the image demonstration on the big screen.
"First of all, in the first match, all the players who have advanced to the official match will participate. The winner will be decided in one round. The match map will be a fusion of multiple areas such as snowfields, deserts, cities, suburbs, volcanoes, wastelands, forests, etc. The initial positions of all contestants are randomly determined, so please don't take it lightly! If you fall into the magma at the beginning, it will be very embarrassing!"
"Hahaha..."XN
"Just a little joke, let's continue to explain. Although this competition is an individual competition, players are allowed to form teams on their own and break other players' models. Each opponent defeated will get 10 points. The ultimate goal of the battle royale mode is survival, so the longer you survive, the more points you can get..."
"...Mr. Yang Hui is really making trouble!"XN
When all the players heard this rule, their eyes twitched a few times.
They can form teams on their own, but they can get points by defeating other players. How can they feel at ease to team up with others? Who doesn't worry about being shot in the back?
It's okay for people like Iori Makoto, Reiji, Yasaka Masao and Kosaka China who are originally a team, because there is tacit understanding and trust between team members, but it's hard for lone rangers who don't form a team to participate in the team competition.
However, this is not the point. The real point is the reason why the battle royale mode is called the battle royale mode, which was announced by Kirara.
"Finally! Every 5 minutes, one of the areas will be randomly selected for a big cleanup!"
"Big cleanup!?" XN
"Yes, you heard it right, it's a big cleanup! Every 5 minutes, an area will be randomly selected to unlock the chaser, and the chaser will eliminate all the players remaining in this area until there is no player in this area. The cleaned area will be closed and players will not be allowed to enter again!"
"This... chaser? Those who can participate in the competition are all world-class, who else can chase us... us..." This is the common thought in the hearts of all the players who have advanced to the official competition. It's not that they look down on others. Those who can stand out from the challenge competition and the peripheral elimination competition are here, who else can chase them?
But soon, some people thought of such existence, and cold sweat flowed down like raindrops.
"Wouldn't it be... them?"
"In the end, if a player can defeat the pursuer and count the final blow, the reward will be... 10,000 points!"
"What~!?!?!?" XN
10,000 points! According to the announced competition content, whoever can get 10,000 points will win!
Of course, it is possible that many people defeated the pursuers, and many people got 10,000 points, so... it depends on who defeated more pursuers!
Suddenly, the contestants were divided into two groups. One group was eager to try, planning how to kill more pursuers to get higher scores, and the other group...
"It's really them!"
"It's over!"
"10,000 points, so damn insidious!"
"This is not a reward, it's just a bait!"
"I don't know how many idiots will be fooled."
"So far, the content of the model battle royale has ended. If you still have questions, you can log in to the official website of the world competition to check. But at the end, I would like to give a sincere advice to all contestants. Don't be confused by the temptation in front of you~!"
The opening ceremony and project explanation in the morning were completely over. The contestants who knew what would happen in the afternoon immediately left the venue, looking for more familiar model fighters, and began to discuss the battle plan for the afternoon.
For example...
"I found you! Fellini!"
"That's right, we were looking for you too."
"Richard Fellini, Reiji, I have something to talk to you about..."
Iori Makoto, Reiji, Yasaka Masao, Ricard Fellini, Glico, Scott, Nils Nelson, Yuki Tatsuya and others found each other immediately after leaving the venue. Most of the others had frequent contact and were very familiar with each other. Nils Nelson was observed at the banquet yesterday. Yang Hui was familiar with these people, so he found them.
"You are... Nils Nelson!"
"Huh? Aren't you that... [Celebrity]?"
"Yes, I think everyone should have guessed the identity of the pursuer, right?" Nils Nelson and Yuki Tatsuya both skipped the self-introduction part. The game will start in the afternoon. They don't have much time left. They have to unite quickly and formulate tactics.
"Yes! It must be them!" XN
Everyone nodded when they heard this. They were not fools. Those who had really come into contact with that group of monsters knew that the number of 10,000 points was definitely a bait rather than a shortcut to victory.
"No, it's not them, but someone more powerful than them!" Yuki Tatsuya was the only one among the group who had come into contact with more big guys, so he knew the most about the group of people in PPSE.
Based on Yuki Tatsuya's understanding of PPSE, the Promise Corps is divided into several levels.
The first level is ordinary members, who are very strong individually, but not so strong that they can't be dealt with at all, but the team cooperation is impeccable. This is the T2 level, which is also the main component of the challenge.
Then there are stronger people, whose personal strength is very strong, so strong that they can't match them, and the team cooperation is also impeccable, or even better. This is the T1 level. A small number of people at this level appeared in the challenge, and their characteristic is that they all use special machines.
Finally, there are the T0 level who can really be called monsters. There are not many of them, but no matter which one, they are not able to fight against them. Even if all the contestants come together, the result will only be a group annihilation, and the opponent will be very relaxed.
"Then Senior Yuki, do you think... the pursuer this time is T1 or T0?" After listening to Yuki Tatsuya's analysis and explanation, Iori Makoto asked immediately.
"T0 will not take action easily. If they take action, this game will have no meaning, so... it should be composed of all T1 level people, and... at least in the form of a team."
"T1... Monsters of Mr. Asuka's level appear in the form of a team? Can people still play with them?" Ricardo Fellini and the other three cried, and Nils Nelson and several others were also full of despair.
According to Yuki Tatsuya's description, T1 level people all use special machines, and Zhen... uses Destiny Gundam!
Barry Ho, who Nils Nelson met, and Jiang Kelly used the Astray Gundam Green and Astray Gundam Purple respectively, both of which are in the category of special machines.
Recalling how they were a little more serious... I'll have nightmares!
"Everyone, since the competition has been determined, there is no point in being afraid. Everyone is gathered together, and I think they all have the same idea, so I suggest that when the competition starts, we should not fight among ourselves or participate in other people's chaos, and try to survive to the end." Yuki Tatsuya suggested.
"Not only that, although I don't know how serious the other party will be, I guess they won't kill us with all their strength. In this case, we have a chance to escape, so I suggest that if you are randomly born in the same area, gather together as soon as possible. If a certain area starts to be cleaned up, work together to escape from that area, and people nearby please support us, everyone stick together, and strive for a longer survival time." Nils Nelson added.
