Chapter 1273, Powerful Opponent
"Oh? So, I want to ask, have the players from the Demon League come to participate in the competition?" Qi Ling asked.
"The Demon League? Of course, how could they miss such a competition?" The staff said, "The Demon League has four teams participating in the competition, two of which are their key teams, one is the hunting team that won the championship last time, and the other is a hunting team composed of their newcomers."
A hunting team composed of newcomers? Qi Ling couldn't help but think secretly. If he remembered correctly, Qian Jiyin and Chu Ling had joined the Demon League before and after, so this team was likely formed around these two people.
As for the other team, since it was the champion team last time, it must be very strong, and it may even be a team composed of people with the strength of the True God Five Rings, which should never be underestimated.
However, as for the detailed information of these two teams, Qi Ling could not know it. This was related to the fairness of the competition, and even these staff members could not disclose it to Qi Ling.
"Well, it looks like this game is more interesting than I thought." Qi Ling said with a smile, "Can we enter the forest now and start the game?"
"Not yet, contestant." The staff said, "The game officially starts in the evening, and ends on time on the last day in the evening. The game will last for three days."
"As for the time between now and the start of the game, you can go to the nearby villages and towns to get some supplies. You should know that within three days after the start of the game, you are not allowed to enter or leave the forest."
What the staff said makes sense. Even food, clothing, housing and daily necessities can be obtained in the forest. However, since all the contestants did not enter the forest, most of them should be in the villages and towns. Collecting some information there will also be beneficial for the game.
Soon, several people entered the town. It seemed more prosperous than before. There were many people who had never seen before wandering around the streets. They should all be contestants preparing to participate in the game.
These people are of all kinds, and it is impossible to tell what kind of abilities they have from their appearance. Although it is certain that everyone is below the fifth ring of the True God, there may not be no strong players among them.
Most of these people gathered in groups to discuss things. Obviously, no one has any idea about the upcoming competition. They looked at each other just to get more information.
"What a grand event, Xiaojiu, since you have participated in the competition before, you should be able to recognize those experienced veterans, right? Such people should be the opponents we need to pay the most attention to."
After all, although these people who have just entered the demon world can indeed have strong strength in a very short time, they are a minority after all, and only the top talents like Qi Ling can do it.
Most of the people participating in the competition are still the previous players. Even if they do not have such high talents, they can gain enough strength through the accumulation of time.
"Of course, teacher, don't underestimate me, I have a very good memory!" Xiao Jiu said proudly, "Many of these people are just taking advantage of the situation, and there are not many who are really capable."
"The people who need to be paid attention to are the Johnny Silver Hand team over there. They are a professional hunting team. Almost no one can recognize the traps they set, and they are powerful and very difficult to deal with."
"And the Phelps team over there, they are good at hiding. In such a forest, even if you pass by them, you can't find their traces, let alone those monsters."
"Ah, that's Duruf, teacher, don't look at him because he is so short, but perhaps his explosive power is the strongest among these people. I'm afraid only Luna will be stronger than him! Because in the last game, he solved a level 6 monster with just one blow, which is quite amazing."
Listening to Xiao Jiu's introduction to these contestants, Qi Ling could also see that she really knew her opponents very well and helped Qi Ling a lot.
Just as Xiao Jiu continued to introduce Qi Ling, Xiao Jiu's face suddenly changed, like a kitten with its fur blown up, and looked in one direction angrily.
Not only Xiao Jiu, but also the other teams around him, their faces became serious, and they all looked in one direction at the same time. In that room, a team was slowly walking over.
Obviously, the origin of this team must be not small. Qi Ling whispered to Xiao Jiu: "Is this team the team that won the last game?"
Xiao Jiu nodded and said: "Yes, teacher, you must be careful of these guys! Especially the leader, his name is Ye Yao, although he is only at the level of True God Five Rings, but it is said that many of the people who died in his hands are at the level of True God Six Rings. He is a very difficult person to deal with."
Hearing Xiao Jiu's warning, Qi Ling couldn't help but pay more attention to Ye Yao. This is a man who looks a bit feminine, with medium-length hair tilted to one side, special makeup on his eyes, and even on his ears, staring at a row of silver earrings.
But even though this guy's appearance is like this, instead of giving people a effeminate feeling, it makes people feel extremely cold. This seems to have become a characteristic of the Demon Alliance, everyone looks sinister. He looked pitiful, like a poisonous snake.
At this time, Ye Yao obviously saw Xiao Jiu, so he came over with his team members, smiled and said to Xiao Jiu: "Hey? Isn't this Xiao Jiu? Are you coming to participate in the competition this year?"
"It was a pity that we played last time, but that's how things are in the world. Nothing is destined. And if I remember correctly, all of your players who participated in the last game should have broken through, right? Is it you who will lead the team this time? Are you here to participate?”
Facing Ye Yao, Xiao Jiu was like a kitten that kept blowing hair. Just when he was about to say something, he was stopped by Qi Ling, and then said to Ye Yao: "I'm sorry, it's not Xiao Jiu who is leading the team this time." , but me.”
"You?" Ye Yao listened to Qi Ling's words, looked Qi Ling up and down, and said thoughtfully, "Oh, I've heard of you, you are the successor of the demon god, a newcomer who shines, right? "
"It seems that you are the new ones who came in from the same batch as Qian Jiyin and Chu Ling. It's really surprising that you already have such power in such a short period of time? You're going to have to repay it sooner or later."
Qi Ling smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about it. When I gained such power, I just followed the trend and didn't take any extreme measures."
"It can be seen that you are indeed very strong. I am looking forward to the fight with you in the forest."
Qi Ling said, extending his hand to Ye Yao. For such a person who thinks highly of himself, speaking with strength is always the best way to greet him.
He also looked at Qi Ling's outstretched hand, and extended his own hand to Qi Ling with great disdain. He obviously wanted to use this method to give Qi Ling a show of strength. After all, in his opinion, how much power can a person whose strength level is not as good as his own have?
But the moment his hand came into contact with Qi Ling, Ye Yao's expression immediately changed. An unimaginable force came from his hand, making him feel pain instantly.
The two maintained such a handshake posture, and it seemed that they were evenly matched. In fact, Ye Yao knew that because he underestimated the enemy at the beginning, he suffered a big loss. Now the situation is completely under Qi Ling's control.
"I heard from Xiaojiu that you showed great power in the last game, which was very admirable." Qi Ling continued to exert his strength and said lightly, "I didn't expect to see such an opponent. It's really amazing. It got me excited."
While Night Demon gritted his teeth and persisted, he also said harshly: "Hmph! As long as you know, there are no rules in this game. Many people died in the forest without any reason. You also Just be careful!"
"Hahaha, thank you for your advice. Brother Ye Yao is indeed a warm-hearted person." Qi Ling said with a smile.
Night Demon snorted coldly, his arm instantly exerted force, and he pulled his hand back. If this continues, under Qi Ling's control, it will become increasingly difficult for him to exert his strength, and he may even make a fool of himself in public.
After that, Ye Yao finally felt that the man in front of him was not an easy man to deal with, so he said meaningfully: "Qi Ling, right? I remember your name, and I'm looking forward to talking with you." You meet in the forest!"
After saying this, the Night Demon Team left here and walked out of the town. It seemed that they were obviously ready, but they just didn't know where they were going after leaving the town.
"Never mind them. Now that we're in town, let's go to the tavern first." Qi Ling said with a smile, "Escano, we have already tested our strength before, but I don't know how good your drinking capacity is. ?”
Escanor also laughed at this time and said: "Hahaha, Qi Ling, maybe I am a little inferior to you in terms of strength, but in terms of drinking capacity, I have never been afraid of anyone!"
"It just so happens that I am familiar with all the taverns in this town. I know that the wine in one tavern is absolutely top-quality and I guarantee you will be satisfied."
Sigma on the side asked curiously: "What is wine? Is it delicious?"
Qi Ling said as he walked: "Haha, Sigma, children are not allowed to drink. You should wait until you grow up to enjoy this kind of fun."
