The team that Silin and Knight were about to face was a little special. They came from the 10 Trade Sectors, and those who could stand out in the 10 Trade Sectors were definitely not inferior to some of the people from the military academies. Another special characteristic was that there was a non-average human in this team.
His ID was Octopus, an Octopus. His name was the same as his own, but he had two more pairs of hands than the average human. Furthermore, the Octopus were more robust, belonging to the category of strength and speed. His performance in the previous matches had been very eye-catching. But Silin's attention was on the other person in this team.
ID Coy Behind The Smile. Although he had attacked many times in the previous matches, his performance was far less eye-catching than Octopus'. Silin had a feeling from watching the recordings of the previous matches that this person was definitely not inferior to Octopus. He was also a rather low-key person.
This feeling of Silin's was confirmed during the Sector Championship platform tournament.
Coy Behind The Smile and Octopus entered the arena before Silin and Knight. Octopus was moving his body. His six arms were very eye-catching, and Silin noticed that his six arms had a wide range of movement and were very agile. It would be a little troublesome to find an attack point from behind.
Unlike Octopus, Coy Behind The Smile stood there quietly. When he saw Silin and Knight enter the arena, Coy Behind The Smile raised his hand in a greeting gesture. However, after seeing Coy Behind The Smile's gesture, Silin narrowed his eyes.
When Coy Behind The Smile raised his arm, his fingers moved slightly. The others would not notice. Forget about whether they could capture that momentary movement, who would notice the minute movements of a person's fingers when he raised his hand in greeting before the match had even begun? But Silin's habits prevented him from overlooking every minute movement of his opponent, especially the fingers. Never ignore a Hunter's finger. Even if they only had one finger, they could easily kill someone without being noticed.
Coy Behind The Smile's finger movement was the secret code of the Sixth Team of Vanguard.
So, Silin made a "hello" gesture. Similarly, when he raised his hand, his fingers also moved rapidly.
Coy Behind The Smile was momentarily surprised. Not bad, he figured it out so quickly. Originally, he did not expect Silin to be able to see the hidden meaning behind that gesture. As expected of someone that the captain thought highly of.
"You deal with Eight Arms, I'll deal with the other one," Silin said to Knight.
Knight raised an eyebrow. This wasn't how the previous arrangement was supposed to be, but since Silin said so, Knight didn't object. He wondered how Lung's reaction would be after the match ended.
After both sides were ready, the system displayed a countdown of ten seconds.
During these ten seconds, while Coquettish Smile was stretching his arms, Shadow X was also stretching his limbs. While the two of them seemed to be warming up for the match, they had already communicated with each other more than ten times. Their fingers moved very quickly, and in an instant, they had completed hundreds of secret codes.
Eyesight, mental arithmetic, and reflexes were all conditions that had to be met. If any of them could not keep up, there would be a gap in communication. Capturing the hundreds of codes made by the other party in an instant, then converting these codes into information, processing the information, and then responding to the other party. This was a test of a person's ability.
However, after the match officially began, the two of them stopped communicating with each other. After all, the surveillance on the Sector Championship's platform would be a lot stricter when the match officially began, and they would officially record the match. As for those warm-up activities before the match, they wouldn't be recorded. This was also why Coquettish Smile chose to communicate with Silin at that time.
Knight immediately rushed up and fought Eight Arms. There weren't many Octopus in the army, and it was very rare to see one. But since he was able to meet an Octopus here, Knight couldn't let go of this great opportunity. This was a new attempt.
Knight was very excited as he fought, and Eight Arms was obviously about the same. The more they fought, the more excited they became, and the faster they fought.
Eight Arms certainly had the strength. When lightning appeared in Knight's fists, Eight Arms still seemed to be holding back.
Compared to Knight and Eight Claws, Shadow X and Coquettish Smile's side were also fighting very quickly and fiercely, but they didn't look as flashy as Knight's Thunderstorm Punch, nor did they look as special as Eight Claws's six arms.
Coquettish Smile and Shadow X's fight couldn't be said to be boring. Every move they made could be used as a teaching demonstration, but Boer and the others just felt that it was very strange and awkward. It wasn't Shadow X's style in their imagination.
Eight Arms' performance gradually faltered under Knight's fierce offensive. After being pushed back by Knight's punch, Eight Arms and Coquettish Smile chose to surrender.
Knight obviously felt that the fight wasn't over yet, and he was very dissatisfied when he heard the system's voice announcing the end of the match. He felt that Eight Arms could still hold on, and shouldn't be at this level. During the clash with Eight Arms, he felt the endurance of Eight Arms' muscles. Although Knight was confident that he could win against Eight Arms if the fight continued, Knight was a little dissatisfied that Eight Arms surrendered just like that. To put it bluntly, he hadn't fought enough.
Although the match looked very exciting and dazzling, he felt that something was missing.
"Something's wrong." In front of the microcomputer, Comos said with a frown.
Feng Haicao nodded. "It feels a little flashy but impractical. Although both sides fought with great vigor and intensity, it's not what we wanted to see. "
"Maybe our expectations are too high."
Regardless of how this match was received, Coquettish Smile and Eight Arms had completed their mission. Both of them were members of Vanguard Division Six, and because they met the age requirement, they were sent to the Academy by Shotton to study. Normally, Hunters wouldn't participate in these matches, but this time, Shotton had the two of them bring a message to Silin. A very important message.
"Assassination, Level One alert!"
"Assassination, Level One alert!"
This was what Coquettish Smile wanted to convey to Silin. As for what rank they got, whether they won or lost, they didn't care. They weren't interested either.
After the match ended, Silin immediately received a complaint from Lung. Due to the last-minute change in battle plan, Lung had earned a lot less money this time. However, Lung didn't ask Silin's reasons for doing so, and continued to analyze the next match.
Knight didn't feel satisfied after the match, so he went to the fighter jet training field to pick out fighter jets with some people from the military academy. Many of these people were Knight's former classmates, and after watching the match, they would gather again to pick out fighter jets and armor. This was something they used to do when they were still in the intermediate education school, but now that they were in the advanced education school, they had much less free time. Now that they finally had the Sector Championship's platform, they definitely had to make the most of their time. However, Knight never revealed Shadow X's true identity, and because of this, he was even surrounded and killed by a few of his friends at the fighter jet training field.
"Knight, I'm going out for a walk, and I'll drop by the supermarket on the way. There's no stock in the cabinet, do you want me to bring anything?" asked Silin as he pushed open the door.
"Just bring me an extra portion of whatever you want to buy … Buy more jerky!" Knight roared without turning his head. He was now fighting hard with a few friends from the military academy at the fighter jet training field, and he had to get his revenge for the ambush from the last time.
Silin walked out of the dormitory. He suddenly felt a little stuffy today, so he came out for a walk and a breath of fresh air. That was why he didn't use the delivery method. Right now it was nighttime, and there weren't many people around, but the supermarket was open day and night.
However, Silin hadn't taken a few steps when his communicator rang. There was no image, only an encrypted message: a line of words and a picture.
The picture indicated a certain place in the forest between Seven Lights' business district and entertainment district, Sleepless City.
"Theresa is in our hands. You have one hour."
