Chapter 927: Tickets to the playoffs
At the end of the "regular season", the contestants not only did not mean to relax, but many people's attitudes became more intense, and even played a big scene that had never been seen before.
At the beginning of the regular season, Taiyi and Locke also faced each other once. It's just that the two of them were restrained in their shots at that time. Locke only used a few magic swords that she had collected before. The one that was too easy to use was the "Spring Water Sword" she built by collecting the essence of water. The two sides fought for a while and finally shook hands. And, there is no winner or loser.
At that time, the whole "season" had just started, and everyone didn't care about winning or losing a game. It is good to win by three points, and there is also a point to draw, there is nothing unacceptable. In addition to the public fight in the ring, it may be a fight for face, but in private fights, draws abound.
This also allowed some people to take the opportunity to earn a lot of points, so that when Alice announced the first stage of the standings in September, Panda and others were surprised to find that Gondor was the best and far ahead in the standings.
Unlike them, Gondor is determined to fight for the championship. So he played every game very seriously, without any politeness or lethargy. From June to September, in three months, he didn't even draw a single draw!
In contrast, the attitude of other contestants is not firm enough. For example, Panda, when he played with Pratt in the first round, he finally chose to shake hands and make peace - he didn't want to spend hours and endless energy, like Yunero, to move little by little" Rooted in the ground," Pratt, pushed it out of the arena. Didn't you see how tired Yunero was after the game? If the time was longer and the sun was more violent, the heat accumulated in his body due to the continuous and violent exertion might have boiled his blood...
After that match, Yunero went to find a way to dissipate heat. He came to Layton, the country of ice and snow, and visited the dragon lord Rhodes. In exchange for "building a comfortable and gorgeous hot spring bath", he learned the secret recipe for preventing "dragon fever" researched by the dragon.
Dragon fever is a disease that many powerful scaly creatures may suffer from. It is roughly because the high heat generated by the powerful energy in the body cannot be effectively evacuated, and the result is stuffy and sick. The dragons will not die because of this disease, but they are also unwilling to suffer the pain in vain, so they have developed a method to release the extra accumulated heat in the body when "spitting".
After learning this method, Yuneruo not only solved his shortcoming of not enduring battle, but also gained a brand new fighting technique—in fact, it can’t be said to be brand new, after all, he was originally able to breathe fire, but it was nothing more than fire breathing. , and more means to spray hot gas.
In the second match with Prett at the end of August, Yuneruo used this method to keep his body temperature at a low level by spewing invisible scorching gas, and Prett's armor also has adjustment The magic circle of temperature. The two sides fought fiercely again for several hours, this time from morning to night. In the end, Yuneruo finally pushed Prett out of the ring bit by bit with the momentum of an ant moving a mountain, and achieved a glorious two-game winning streak.
But these two consecutive victories did not bring any glory to Yuneruo, but instead made many people laugh at him for being too serious, and he was just fussing about it.
Yuneruo shouted at the time, "I'm more wronged than Dou E! It's clear that we agreed to fight a victory or defeat to verify the 'contradiction dispute'. Why did I become so preoccupied with it?"
But after the standings came out, many people felt that it was actually a good thing for him to be so preoccupied with it.
For example, pandas think so.
Because in the standings, Uniero ranks high, second only to Gondor, who has played a lot of games because of his enthusiasm.
The first stage of the game was quite chaotic, as long as the two sides are willing to each other, they can play at any time. So Gondor hurry up and played two games with a lot of people who were just for fun. By the time the standings came out, those contestants whose attitudes were between the unnecessary and unnecessary had all eaten here. The two-game losing streak allowed him to take all six points.
As for Panda and others who wanted to snipe him, although they won the game against him, more than one person drew and even lost several other games, so that even if they could keep winning from then on, it would be very difficult for them to win. It's hard to break Gondor's lead.
Panda and Locke were taken aback, and then the attitude of the game became serious and serious. They are worthy of being recognized as the top masters among the traversers. Once they get serious, they immediately show a sweeping attitude in the game, and the points increase rapidly.
But even so, when the entire "regular season" was about to end, Panda was still on the edge of the top eight, and was not able to qualify for the playoffs steadily.
Locke's situation is better than Panda's, and his playoff qualifications are almost guaranteed. But he still wanted to win, because he wanted to accumulate his determination to win, and strive to eliminate the opponent in the game with Yunero.
Yes, eliminated.
Because, the fact that Yunero helped Gondor win the championship finally came to light.
Although Gondor had gained a lot of advantages before, his hard power was still inferior. So when Panda and others became serious, it became more and more difficult for him to win, and his points increased more and more slowly. As a key target of the "anti-advocacy group", he played very difficult every game, almost Wisdom and force must be fully exerted every time, so that there is a chance to turn the tables against the trend.
His lead narrowed over time, and by late September he was even pushed out of the top eight at one point.
At that time, Panda and others were very happy, and they celebrated it a little - because among the top eight, there was no real "martial arts recruiting faction".
However, when Gondor had his last two games remaining and his total was at least 4 points short, something that angered the Pandas happened.
Yuneruo, who had never played a game with Gondor because of reasons such as "time was not a coincidence", lost two games against Gondor in just five minutes.
His acting was so clumsy and careless that everyone watching their game in the castle hall at that time booed and shouted "fixing the ball".
Many people angrily approached the host Alice and demanded the disqualification of the two.
Alice smiled slightly and asked back, "Does it say in the rules that fake matches are not allowed? Why don't you let the ball go?"
The crowd was speechless.
"Everyone, I'm a demon. As we all know, demons like to play tricks in contracts. For us, as long as there are things that are not prohibited in the rules, it should be regarded as permission." Alice was in a good mood because of this interesting twist. , explained, "If the law does not prohibit it, it is feasible. Since I did not formulate such rules before the start of the competition, then I will not modify the rules after the start of the competition."
So, with this precious 6 points, Gondor successfully got a ticket to the playoffs.
