Chapter 331 The Unbearable Result of the Promotion Ceremony
Chapter 331 The unbearable result of the "promotion ceremony"
Only half a day had passed, and the originally peaceful fishing village and its surrounding areas had been completely changed.
The houses in the village collapsed, the walls were broken and charred, the household items were burned and smashed, and there were ordinary people who were trapped in the ruins or lying on the streets without evacuation.
The surrounding rice fields and woods were also in a mess, and traces of battle were everywhere. Even the main roads leading to the city were blown to pieces, and many sections were severely damaged and temporarily blocked.
Not only that, the nearby base stations and power supply equipment were also destroyed. At least Jiang Qian could not communicate with the outside world using the mobile phone he picked up.
This was a situation caused by the 279 super-species players, either intentionally or by accident.
The speed of the destructive force was initially gradual, but later, like dominoes, it lost control.
Before sunset, Jiang Qian and six colleagues including Honghu Yufei met at the dock to discuss follow-up plans.
After the "storm" during the day, the fishing village finally returned to peace.
Several people quietly sneaked into the dock lighthouse, sat together, and exchanged their own situations and important information they observed.
At this time, the number of candidates left was: 48 people, and the elimination rate had reached: 83%.
The threshold of the elimination rate of 95% is getting closer and closer.
Including Jiang Qian, the seven people have obtained at least one foreign aid qualification in the Beast King stage, and Jiang Qian and Honghu Yufei have taken the lead in obtaining two foreign aid qualifications in the Beast King stage.
The qualification of obtaining foreign aid is only related to the hunting quota, and the other five colleagues have not yet obtained the six hunting quotas.
"I have completed five hunting quotas, and I still need one head." A yak identity card holder said, "This is all thanks to the help of the Qianlong God and all the brothers..."
"Me too, if I catch another unlucky guy, I will get the qualification of two foreign aids. At that time, whether I can conquer the beast king or not, my master will help me pass the promotion smoothly." Another dog card holder said.
"Yes, the official ten tribes will not allow their own people to be buried at the last level."
"I still need two, which is a bit of a drag on everyone, haha... Whether I can pass the third level depends on luck."
Several people exchanged information with each other, and their words inevitably revealed their fatigue after the fierce battle.
"Don't be discouraged, it's still early to meet the elimination rate! There is such a big bug in the promotion ceremony, who knows what will happen in the meantime? Maybe there will be prey coming to the door soon, and then the brothers will work together to do a job, and the heads will not be easy to catch!" A license holder joked boldly.
"I'm just worried that there won't be enough prey to share, hahaha..."
Several people laughed, and the fatigue and resentment of the long-term hard battle were relieved in the laughter.
In the end, everyone focused their eyes on Jiang Qian and Honghu Yufei, and their eyes more or less revealed envy and expectation.
In the eyes of other reserve forces, the two were the first masters to obtain full qualifications for Beast King foreign aid. One was the backbone of the special department of the capital, and the other was a super genius regarded as a strategic weapon by the official ten clans.
They were waiting for the opinions of Jiang Qian and Honghu Yufei.
Jiang Qian and Honghu Yufei looked at each other.
Before the seven people gathered, the two of them had discussed this issue face to face: According to the variation curve of the elimination rate, after the explosive growth, the elimination rate has gradually slowed down at this time.
The reason is that the remaining candidates at this time are either dangerous strongmen selected by the survival of the fittest, or lone wolves who are hidden very deeply and may not be found even if you dig three feet underground.
Either of the above two types is difficult to deal with.
Moreover, as the elimination rate approaches the threshold, everyone's risk awareness increases significantly, the enthusiasm for fighting decreases, and self-protection becomes more practical.
Therefore, the time for the end of the "Domain King Battle" may be later than expected.
Jiang Qian then got straight to the point:
"Regarding the hunting quota, everyone still has a chance."
Several people's eyes suddenly lit up!
Through the contact in the training camp, they have full trust in Qianlong Wuyong's strength and the weight of his words. Qianlong Wuyong said that everyone has a chance to get full assistance qualifications, so there must be a chance.
Jiang Qian continued:
"As you all have noticed, the scope of this 'Domain King Battle' is somewhat different from the intelligence and ideas taught to us in the training camp. Brother Honghu and I have discussed privately that this change should not be an isolated incident that is separated from the overall existence. There are still some things hidden in this map that we have not figured out. And this may be everyone's opportunity."
"For example, how many 'supernormal introduction' categories are included in this competition pool? Are there some inevitable logical relationships between categories? When thinking about these questions, we did find some opportunities."
Everyone listened to Jiang Qian's analysis attentively, although it was sometimes difficult for them to keep up with Jiang Qian's ideas.
"Based on the observation information from everyone, we have arranged and combined the currently known categories and found that the 279 license holders participating in this Domain King Competition fully cover amphibious species on land, sea and air, including mythical beasts. This is in line with the current competitive environment: vast airspace, land, and seaside."
"But from the current classification of identity cards that everyone has come into contact with, the proportion of marine species is obviously scarcer than that of land and air species."
"Strictly speaking, there are very few. So the question is, we guard such a large sea area but rarely encounter candidates holding marine species identity cards. What do you think this means?"
Jiang Qian said here and looked at everyone.
The official reserve who came to the Domain King Competition level at present are at least official elites who have passed five levels and killed six generals.
After hearing Jiang Qian's words, someone quickly realized, "If it's not that there are few candidates with marine species ID cards, then they are hiding in places we can't reach."
"For example, the deep sea!" Others echoed and questioned, "But this is too tricky. We can't go into their area of expertise to fight, right?"
"It's too dangerous. The probability of success in underwater combat will be greatly reduced..."
"Don't forget, we are a team." Jiang Qian suddenly laughed.
This word woke people up from their dreams!
"Wait," someone suddenly reminded, and looked at Jiang Qian in disbelief, "I remember that the great god Qianlong once dealt with ancient beast pets in the water during training..."
Others recalled the grand occasion of the day: eight ancient beast pets ambushed in the lake on the island, crying for food, were poisoned by Qianlong Wuyong alone. This is a wonder that they will never forget in their lives.
While receiving the attention of several reserve soldiers, Jiang Qian took the lead in making his position clear:
"I can try to lure them ashore, but the hunting plan still depends on your own means."
When they heard the accurate attitude, they all showed joy:
"Of course! The help of the great god Qianlong has paved the way for the brothers, and we are grateful. How can we let you hunt again!"
"I don't need to thank you for your great favor. If you need anything in the future, just ask me!"
...
Several people immediately discussed the plan of hunting along the coast.
Having come to this point, everyone hopes to pass the "narrow gate" with a certainty and be promoted to the ranks of the powerful.
Jiang Qian stood up and walked out, and Honghu Yufei followed him.
The two stopped at the edge of the coverage area of the hidden props, looking at the village crumbling in the gloom.
"Have you considered the risks of doing this?" Honghu Yufei asked.
"There are risks, but the benefits are good, it's worth a try." Jiang Qian said in a relaxed tone.
"I mean you, the risk to you is far greater than the benefits, why do you waste your precious resources for others?"
Honghu Yufei tried to adjust the question:
"In fact, you have completed the hunting mission and obtained full foreign aid qualifications. Isn't the best strategy for you to find a place to hide, wait for the elimination rate to reach the threshold and then go directly to the next level?"
"You are consuming yourself by doing this. By then, your state facing the Beast King will definitely be greatly reduced, and you may even get burned..."
This question hits the point.
Jiang Qian looked at the small fishing village that had lost its vitality. The dilapidated scene formed a sharp contrast with the peace and tranquility in the daytime.
"Look, what is that?"
Jiang Qian pointed at the small fishing village and asked.
Honghu Yufei looked at it with some confusion: "Fishing village?"
Jiang Qian was silent for a moment, nodded and said:
"It's a fishing village. It could also be Tianjin, it could be Beijing, it could be any town or village in the world."
Honghu Yufei was slightly startled, and instantly understood what Jiang Qian meant.
He turned his head to look at Jiang Qian, and for the first time felt that he was so close to this super genius.
"I have been observing around the fishing village all day today, watching different candidates commit destruction and murder. In the end, I found that only the official reserve and a small number of other licensees care about the survival of these NPCs."
Jiang Qian looked at Honghu Yufei:
"I am curious, why is this."
"Because they are human, at least they look human, and so are we."
Honghu Yufei spoke his mind without hesitation:
"If you have received regular training from the official licensee, then you must have often heard such a metaphor from the learning materials or the instructor: the relationship between licensees and ordinary people is like fish and water, and fish cannot live without water. As a lawful licensee, it is not allowed to violate the laws and regulations of the human world."
"Yes, in theory, we and ordinary people are no longer of the same species, but we have the same language system, similar living habits and emotions, we have a common history and culture, and we have the same relatives and partners. So we are still compatriots with ordinary people."
"Once I show my claws to my compatriots, the cognition I have built up over the years of my life will collapse."
As Honghu Yufei spoke, his eyes fell towards the direction of the fishing village again:
"We pay a price to maintain order because if we don't do this, we will have to pay a greater price. That is a result that our body and mind cannot bear."
When Honghu Yufei said "unbearable results", Jiang Qian's eyes flashed with daily life at home, one after another lively ordinary people.
Or deceased people.
Due to the lack of "sad" emotion, Jiang Qian can hardly trigger the physiological reaction of losing his relatives; but it does not mean that he will not miss the good of these people.
He longs for a future that can be controlled to avoid adding to the entanglement of these emotional blanks.
At present, he only sees this possibility in some official licensees.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qian said bluntly: "I hope that people with similar ideas as you will gain more power."
Honghu Yufei stared at Jiang Qian for a long time with a respectful look, and smiled: "Me too!"
When the two were exchanging ideas, a ball of light and fire suddenly burst out from the sea.
Then, three sailboats suddenly appeared and approached the dock from the nearby sea area.
"What is that?" Honghu Yufei frowned slightly.
Jiang Qian sneered: "That's good, even the poison is saved."
The two quickly returned to the lighthouse and informed the other reservists of the emergency.
...
The three sailboats approaching the dock were approaching the dock at an incredible speed.
There was no light or fire on the three ships, and it was completely dark until they were dozens of meters away from the dock, and a little spark suddenly lit up on the mast of each ship!
The other party did not seem to have any intention of landing.
But the other party's intention was heard by many people at the first time!
It was a secret technique that could transmit sound over a long distance and was controlled by sound props or sound wave capabilities:
"Is Qianlong Wuyong here? Is the official Qianlong Wuyong here?"
A gloomy voice penetrated the fog and came clearly to the lighthouse where Jiang Qian and others were.
The other party seemed to clear his throat, and his tone was relaxed and comfortable:
"I am an admirer of Qianlong Wuyong, and also a challenger who came here because of his reputation. I hope to invite Qianlong Wuyong himself to the sea for a chat!"
Jiang Qian, who was quickly discussing siege countermeasures with several reservists, focused his eyes: the other party was challenging him by name!
The nature has changed.
This is a trap set for him, and has nothing to do with other official reservists here.
The sound waves continued to vibrate and spread in all directions:
"I know what happened on the shore! I also know how inappropriate it is to invite you to a strange ship at this time, but I guess you won't refuse me."
"Because once you refuse the invitation, I will vent all my dissatisfaction with you on your official friends..."
As the voice came out, Jiang Qian and others had seen the mystery of the faint "light and fire" swaying on the masts of the three sailboats from the lighthouse:
There was a person hanging on each ship.
The familiar faces revealed their identities as reservists. All three of them were severely injured, stripped naked, and hung on the mast with their last breath.
At this time, the chains used to suspend them were still burning with strange flames. The flames had burned their hands to black and bones, and their forearms were bloody!
Once the fire burned down to the head, even if they were not killed on the spot, these reservists would lose the opportunity to be promoted.
But now it is not just a matter of promotion for these three people.
Someone openly shouted at the lawful officials during the promotion ceremony, threatening and humiliating them, and the target of the shouting was Qianlong Wuyong, who has been famous in recent days!
If there is no proper handling, the incident will be spread, and it is difficult to estimate what kind of impact it will have in the eyes of casual cultivators and other neutral and free organizations.
"Qianlong Wuyong? You heard it, Qianlong Wuyong!"
The other party shouted to the shore tirelessly, releasing threats:
"I will only give you ten minutes! If I don't see you Qianlong Wuyong in ten minutes, then I will use a knife to cut the meat of your colleagues one by one in front of all the dignitaries of this session..."
"Each piece of meat is only as big as a fingernail, thin, thinner than the scales of a carp, I guarantee that they will be able to enjoy it all alive."
The man's voice gradually lost control, trembling with excitement, and he did not hide his crazy and perverted psychology:
"I want their fear to be heard by everyone, remember! Let everyone know what the end will be if they are friends with Qianlong Wuyong!"
