It was almost 12 o 'clock, and the scoreboard was almost clear now. The South Korean team was still in first place, with 177 points. Yes, the South Korean team not only snatched some points from the American team, but they also had to get some points because they wanted to catch the members of the small national team who had escaped. Hence, their points had increased by a lot within an hour.
India was in second place with a score of 148 points. They didn't receive any attacks, but they also understood the current situation, so they didn't dare to put too many points on their farms. Just like the American team, they also appropriately reduced their farms and took away the points from the farms that were further away. This was to prevent any unexpected situations from happening.
The American team had become the third place. They were simply collecting points like crazy. Within an hour, they had flown from the sixth place to the third place. They had 139 points, which was not far from the second place.
Hua Xia's team had 62 points, and their ranking had also returned to the sixth place. The European Union team was still calm, with 31 points. If they only took the basic points, they should only get 28 points. However, for some reason, the European Union team had three more points. They did not quite understand what was going on. The Japanese team was too lazy to say anything.
The Japanese team was too lazy to talk about it. They were at the bottom with zero points. The match had not even ended yet, but they were already starting to worry. As long as the Chinese team continued to stand on the Japanese team's territory and did not let them move, the Japanese team's final score would definitely be very ugly. They felt that the Chinese team did not care about anything else and just wanted to target the Japanese team and take their points. This was bad because the Japanese team had paid 10 billion dollars as an entrance fee. This … Could it be that they would not be able to get a single cent back? 10 billion dollars was equivalent to hundreds of tons of cash. If it was thrown into the water, it would be enough to fill up a pond. Now that it had evaporated, how could they accept that?
The sponsoring company of the Japanese team was going crazy. If this continued, their company would be in big trouble. How could they allow this to happen? It was also because the G6 country could at least get the sixth place, and it would not be too much of a loss. However, according to the distribution of the prize money and the current situation, it was possible that they would not get a single cent. This … this was really going to happen.
It was not only the Japanese companies who were anxious. Even the Japanese government was a little anxious. A loss of 10 billion would be equivalent to 1 trillion Yen. How could they accept such a loss? Although they were not the ones who paid for it, once the company that paid for it went bankrupt, they would not be the ones who had to pay the bill in the end. The remaining problems of workers, factories, taxes, and so on were simply too much. What could they do? Although it was almost midnight, everyone in the prime minister's residence was still unable to sleep. Now, even the prime minister had begun to pay attention to this competition.
"Prime Minister, we can't go on like this. If we really end up with zero points, we won't be able to bear the responsibility." The parliament members all came to the Prime Minister's side and said.
"Now you guys can't bear the responsibility. Why didn't you f * cking have any reaction before?" The prime minister was also depressed. He knew about this before. After all, it was such a large sum of money. If it was done well, it would naturally be helpful to Japan's economy. Before the competition, he also understood a little about the situation. However, he thought that the G6 countries would basically not fall out of the top six, and they would not lose too much even if they lost, so he nodded. But now, it seemed that the situation was completely different. If it really continued to develop, they would definitely be at the bottom with 0 points, and they would not be able to get a single cent back.
"But how did we know that the competition would be like this? And why is Hua Xia's team targeting us like this?" a member of parliament said. The competition rules were announced at the end, and it was after the registration, so even they did not know. And Hua Xia's team targeting them was definitely true. It was too obvious.
"Ozawa-kun! You were in charge of this matter from the beginning to the end. If something really happens, you will have to take full responsibility, "another member of parliament said.
"You …" Little Ze glared at the other party, but there was nothing he could do. He was indeed in charge of this matter. If something really happened in the end, his outcome … might be very bad. Resigning would be considered a light punishment, and he might even "commit suicide" as a scapegoat.
"Alright, alright. Now is not the time to talk about responsibility." Another person next to him said, "Prime Minister, the current situation is definitely not good. Should we intervene a little?"
"Intervene? How do we intervene? I don't know much about this, "the prime minister said. He really didn't know much about games. Usually, he treated it as an industry. Now that it had developed to the extent that it had affected the country's economy, he was a little surprised.
"We can only negotiate with the other party," the member of parliament said.
"Negotiate … this?" The prime minister was also stunned for a long time.
No matter how bad the situation was on the Japanese side, Li Huailin had no plans to let the Japanese team go for the time being. Didn't they want Asia to be united and peaceful? Li Huailin had to teach them how to be united and peaceful.
Of course, the current focus was not on the Japanese team. No one had the time to care about the Japanese team. The focus was … the second round of voting.
It seemed like the Korean team was still in first place, but this did not mean that the Korean team would still be in first place in the voting later. They had already seen the situation in the previous round. The Korean team even gave their points to the American team at the last moment, forcing themselves to become second place. This time, they might do the same. Although the difference in points this time was a little big, with a difference of more than 30 points, it was still better than losing half of their points.
Of course, this round still had nothing to do with Hua Xia's team. Even so, everyone was still paying attention to the points page, because it could change at any time.
"I will continue to vote for myself," Li Huailin said.
No one had any objections. This time, the vote for Hua Xia's team was still not the key. The most important thing was who was in first place.
Soon, it was 12 o 'clock, and the battlefield information also appeared as scheduled.
Battlefield information: The second round of voting will now begin. Note that the national team with the most votes will have half of their current points deducted as punishment. The voting time is a maximum of 15 minutes. Exceeding the time limit will be treated as a forfeit.
The voting column on Li Huailin's side also popped up. Li Huailin did not even look at it and immediately voted for himself. Then, he began to closely follow the points page.
This time, the voting ended abnormally quickly. Maybe it was because everyone was already familiar with the operation. After only three minutes, the voting results were out.
Battlefield information: The second round of voting has ended. Now counting the votes.
First place: Team India, Votes: 19 votes.
Second place: Team Korea, Votes: 14 votes.
Third place: Team America, Votes: 11 votes.
Fourth place: Team Russia, Votes: 4 votes.
…
Tied for seventh place: Team Hua Xia, Votes: 1 vote.
…
"Huh? It's actually like this? " This time, everyone was a little surprised. Not only because India was in first place, but they were also shocked by the change in the points. That was because at the last moment of the voting, there was a huge change in the points of the three countries.
The key point here was the points of India, the United States, and South Korea. At the last moment of the voting, the points of the three countries were like this. South Korea had 179 points, India had 150 points, and the United States had 146 points.
However, everyone saw the change in the points at that time. The three countries had manipulated the points. First, it was the United States. Because they were cheated last time, the United States learned their lesson this time. They didn't look at anything and directly gave 10 points to the South Korean team in first place.
On the other hand, the Indian team was in second place. They were also afraid that the South Korean team would cheat them, so they actually gave the South Korean team points. However, they were more precise in their calculations and directly gave 2 points to the South Korean team. They were worried that the South Korean team would give themselves points.
However, they didn't expect the South Korean team to be even more cunning. Without any hesitation, they directly gave 40 points to the Indian team. Entering the voting page, needless to say, the Indian team became first place. Of course, they immediately received a skill reduction.
In the end, the points of the three countries became 151 points for South Korea, 94 points for India, and 136 points for the United States. Unexpectedly, the South Korean team was still leading the rankings.
This time, the South Korean team still had the upper hand in this game of three countries. However, there was still a hidden danger. They had also provoked India. Obviously, they wouldn't let go of this loss just like that.
At this time, it was already 12 o 'clock. This round of voting had ended. At this time, the audience was getting ready to slowly leave the venue. Although it was said to be a 24-hour continuous competition, the audience and the players had to rest. The next round of voting was at 6 o' clock in the morning. The audience could take a look. However, just as they were about to leave the venue, they didn't expect the captain of Hua Xia's team, Li Huailin, to suddenly stand up.
Of course, all the team members immediately turned to look at Li Huailin. They wanted to see what was going on and if he was going to do anything.
"Sigh … why do humans have to hurt each other …" Li Huailin suddenly sighed and said.
"…" Everyone continued to lower their heads and pretended not to hear him. It turned out that it wasn't that he was going to take action. It was that this guy was acting up again.
"What are you guys doing? Get up, get up." Li Huailin suddenly said, "Our Hua Xia team is responsible for maintaining world peace. How can we rest now? Let's go, let's get to work!"
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned. "Really? There's going to be action? "
"Yes, let's go now." Li Huailin waved his hand and said.
