"Since the first round of the game was all about luck, we can make the second round a little more interesting …" Mr. Dot's light voice traveled through the layers of white fog and reached everyone's ears without any hindrance. "Now, let me introduce —"
Red and White Match Second Round: [Meeting at the Crossroads]
Gameplay Introduction: With the dividing line between the two teams, a grid consisting of 25 squares with five vertical squares and five horizontal squares will appear on each side of the Red and White teams. A wall of light will rise from the center of the grid, blocking the Red and White teams from seeing what is happening on the other side. After the wall of light rises, both teams will freely choose a grid to walk into.
As soon as Mr. Dot finished his sentence, the two paths that had appeared in the first round of the game disappeared. Instead, they were replaced by a huge grid that was separated by a faint golden light. On the White Team's side, there was an identical grid. However, very quickly, the White Team's side was engulfed by a rising black wall of light.
On the vertical edge of the grid, the numbers ABCDE were written from top to bottom, and on the horizontal edge, the numbers 12345 were written from left to right.
"Do you see these grids? Here, Contestant Lin from the Red Team and Contestant Ai from the White Team, please demonstrate. Walk into any of the grids. "
Lin Sanjiu glanced at Mr. Dot with a puzzled expression. She cautiously picked a grid and stood in it.
"Let's use Contestant Lin from the Red Team as an example … She is standing in row D on the vertical edge and the horizontal edge is the fourth square, so the number of her grid is D4. This is easy to understand, right? "
Everyone present nodded their heads, their eyes constantly scanning the grids.
"The White Team's side is ready. I will now lower the wall of light — "
As the black wall of light descended, the figure of a young man from the White Team wearing a flowery shirt appeared in front of the Red Team.
Once the wall of light disappeared, the Red Team looked at the ground reflexively.
"Contestant Ai from the White Team is standing in row B on the vertical edge and the second square on the horizontal edge, so his grid is B2. In that case, congratulations to the two of you for your positioning just now. You didn't crash! " Amidst the silence, Mr. Dot clapped his hands a few times and said, "If the contestants don't collide, let's begin the second round of positioning. Now, please lower your heads and look — "
The black wall of light once again obscured his vision. Lin Sanjiu suddenly heard a "ding dong" sound. She looked down and saw a line of words under her feet. She quickly lifted one of her hiking boots and saw the words on the ground clearly. "In one of the boxes on your upper left, there is a reward of + 1 point!"
"Every time you change your stance. They could only take one step and walk into the cell next to them. Now, the two contestants, please take your positions again! "
On the upper left … Lin Sanjiu looked around and stepped into C3.
"Alright, both sides are in position. Light Wall descend!"
This time, there was an uproar in the red and white teams. There was no other reason for this. It was because Lin Sanjiu and the young man with the surname Ai were standing in the C3 square.
"In this round, the red and white contestants are standing on the same square … At this point, both sides will have to duel to determine the winner. The loser will leave the arena while the winner will stay and participate in the next round. "
"For example, Contestant Lin has been defeated. Contestant Lin, please leave the arena."
Lin Sanjiu walked out of the grid silently.
"When Contestant Ai is the only one left in C3, the score in C3 will appear. Contestant Ai, the notification under your feet is: "In one of the squares in front of you, there is a -1 point penalty." That's right, these are the points we gain and lose in this round. Everyone, please pay attention to the notification! "
"During this process, whichever team has less than half of their members will lose this round. Then this team would lose this round. The winner of this round will not only get the prize from the opposing team, but will also get + 1 point! "
Rules of the game: 1. The duel will end when one side surrenders, dies, falls off the arena, or loses the ability to move.
2. You can choose not to move when you stand again, but you cannot do so more than once in a row.
3. The duration of each light wall is 15 seconds.
4. The reward and loss notifications for both red and white contestants are the same.
Everyone is recommended to participate in this game.
"The reward rules for this game are a little different. Everyone, please pay attention. Apart from drawing a random Special Item or ability from one of the six contestants as a public prize, please note that if you lose the duel in this round, one of the advanced abilities of the loser will become the personal reward of the winner — "
Even though Mr. Dot sounded relaxed and cheerful, the faces of the members of the red and white teams darkened.
This time, no matter from a public or private point of view, they couldn't just surrender to protect themselves. In other words, every duel was bound to be a fierce one …
The contestants only had 5 minutes to prepare. During this time, Lin Sanjiu handed in her [Inedible Lunch] as a prize. She carried the brown-furred rabbit and put it down before she entered the white mist. When she came out, she placed the rabbit on her shoulder and walked back to the red team.
"Miss Lin, thank you." Zhong Junkai smiled sheepishly at her, "If someone's ability was randomly drawn, it would be a little troublesome."
Lin Sanjiu smiled, "You're welcome. When Old Wang and Chen Fan saw her return, they were still whispering to each other. Lara came up to Lin Sanjiu and asked curiously, "Miss Lin, it seems like you like this rabbit a lot... What's its name? Can it say its name? "
The rabbit's large, innocent eyes narrowed into a vicious expression. Before it could speak, Lin Sanjiu quickly covered its face, "No name, no name. It doesn't know how to say anything, haha!"
The moment Rabbit Tooth bit her palm, Mr. Dot's voice, announcing the start of the game, echoed in every corner of the gigantic circle.
"The light wall is rising — [Meeting at the Crossroads] has officially begun. Now, contestants from both teams, please take your positions!"
"How should we stand?" Chen Fan wiped the water droplets off his face and looked at the huge grid under his feet. He asked impatiently. He wasn't good at this kind of game. Instead, he was good at fighting, which didn't require him to use his brain.
"This is our first time standing. There are no hints and we don't know each other's position … I think we should split up and stand anywhere we want," Zhong Junkai replied. They first picked a grid and walked into it.
Even though no one said anything, everyone seemed to have the same feeling. They looked around and took less than a minute. Everyone had chosen their positions.
"Red Team is in position!"
Mr. Dot announced. However, the light wall didn't descend even after he announced it.
It seemed like the White Team wasn't in position yet. The members of the Red Team waited for a few more minutes, but there was still no movement. Just when they started to feel a little anxious and doubtful, Mr. Dot finally announced, "White Team is in position! The light wall is descending! "
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at the unrealistic light wall slowly descending in front of everyone, the members of the Red Team and the White Team finally faced each other.
There was an old lady with a serious expression on her face, a woman with long legs in a red miniskirt, a young man with a flowery shirt, and the loser from their first game … This was the first time the members of the Red Team had such a close and detailed look at their opponents.
When her gaze fell on the familiar faces of Hu Changzai and Hai Tianqing, Lin Sanjiu suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and averted her gaze expressionlessly.
Then, her heart skipped a beat. "Huh? Hold on, the White Team's position seems to be … "
Before Lin Sanjiu could react, Mr. Dot announced happily, "For the first time, no one stepped on the grid that causes you to lose points! Now, let's report our positions — "
White Team's position: Old Lady E1, Hai Tianqing C3, Loser E5. Long-legs A1, Hu Changzai A3, Flowery shirt A5.
Red Team's position: Lin Sanjiu C5, Lara C3, Zhong Junkai D4, Chen Fan E3, Old Wang C2, B.Rabbit B3.
"Unfortunately, two contestants have collided at the C3 position! Now, both contestants, please step out of the grid! "
Even though they couldn't hear what the other team was saying, the atmosphere in the White Team changed. The old lady's lips curled up slightly, her red lips parted, and the man with the flowery shirt even put his finger in his mouth and made a whistling gesture. It was as if they had already predicted that there would be a duel in the first round.
A flat limestone slab that was about 20 square meters in size flew out from the white fog and hovered motionlessly in the empty space beside the grid. It seemed like it was the location of the duel.
The moment the limestone slab appeared, the atmosphere in the Red Team became gloomy.
They didn't expect that their first opponent would be the person with the highest combat ability in the White Team. Lara's face turned pale. She looked at her boyfriend with trembling eyes and said tearfully, "Hubby … What should I do … I … I can't do it …"
Zhong Junkai didn't look too good either. He gritted his teeth and thought for a while before asking loudly, "Mr. Dot, can I take her place in the duel?"
"Of course not. Red Team contestant, please enter the arena! "
Seeing Hai Tianqing running up the limestone slab, Lara trembled as she walked to the bottom of the limestone slab. She grabbed the edge of the slab and tried to climb up for a long time, but to no avail. In the end, Zhong Junkai had to get Mr. Dot's permission to run over and help Lara up.
Seeing this scene, the members of the White Team almost squatted on the ground in laughter. The members of the Red Team also looked embarrassed — —
"Hey, rabbit!"
While no one was paying attention to her, Lin Sanjiu called out to B.Rabbit. Her voice was so soft that she almost couldn't hear herself.
B.Rabbit didn't turn around, but one of its long ears twitched, indicating that it was listening.
"Even though there are 25 squares with 12 people, the probability of a collision is quite high … But no matter what, it doesn't make sense for the collision to happen in the middle of the square …" Lin Sanjiu lowered her voice even more since her opponent was a rabbit. "I have an idea … You can move to C3 next time. You should be able to fight with Hai Tianqing there."
"What?" B.Rabbit lost his composure, "I'll fight with Hai Tianqing? Who will win and who will lose? "(To be continued.)
PS:
Yesterday's patch, get it …
"Erm, just in case you guys didn't notice, I secretly changed the game from 6 rounds to 4 rounds...
Don't say I'm shameless.
No one watches the game anyway.
So what if I change it?
