So, in a situation where there wasn't a particularly big threat, Innocent Child made a conservative strategy and hid some of his maneuvers that could be used on the field.
When Lu Li used the Phantom Cloak for the final burst, he knew that he had underestimated his opponent. Unfortunately, it was too late. None of his trump cards could surpass the Phantom Cloak in such a short amount of time.
As such, Old Man Power lost because of Lu Li.
If they had gone all out from the start, the outcome might not have been certain. But even if they won, Lu Li would have had to use more tricks up his sleeves.
"Good, Lu Li crossed the finish line. He won!" the commentator shouted.
"A brilliant comeback. It was indeed unexpected." Jiang Gu was actually complaining about the lack of sportsmanship between the two contestants. Even he could tell that they hadn't gone all out from the start.
From this perspective, the audience, the commentator, and the other contestants had all become foils for the two contestants.
"Congratulations." Innocent Child had also finished the race. They were transported to the award stage together. Not only were there the commentator, but there was also the guest in charge of presenting the award.
There were only a few people on the makeshift award stage. Below, there were tens of thousands of people who had bought tickets to watch the final moments up close.
"It was just a fluke," Lu Li replied politely.
"I thought I had it in the bag. I didn't expect to lose to you in the end," Innocent Child looked at Lu Li with a complicated expression.
Just as Water Fairy had told Lu Li, Innocent Child had a skill or special effect with a very short cooldown. It was the Fire Cat form that he had just used. This form was a special effect on one of his equipment. It had a very short cooldown and a good acceleration effect.
If he hadn't planned to hold back, he would have used this form continuously from the start. Even if Lu Li had used it in the end, he wouldn't have been able to salvage the situation.
But then again, the Phantom Cloak's cooldown wasn't very long. It was only two minutes, and it could be used several times in a single race.
In short, anyone could imagine what Innocent Child was feeling right now.
"I didn't expect a Thief to be the champion." After the top three were decided, not many people paid attention to the rest. At least the two commentators had already shifted their attention to the podium.
The three winners on stage were Lu Li, a Thief, Innocent Child, a Druid, and a Hunter, the one who had sacrificed his pet.
As the first two rounds of the marathon unfolded, the officials were actually quite embarrassed.
If the top three were all Druids, what would the other players think? Would this event become a competition exclusive to the Druid profession?
Everyone transformed into cheetahs, seals, and crows. Whoever arrived first would be the winner.
The result was much better than they had expected. There was only one Druid in the top 3, so no one would say anything about it. As for the 4th to 30th place, it was all Druids, so the officials could only choose to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial.
There were simply too many year-end events, and not a single player could participate in all of them.
The game company naturally had their own priorities when designing the event, but since it was the only event with a Legendary equipment as a reward, the game management team still paid enough attention to it.
When a figure walked out from the flickering lights, the players, especially the otakus, immediately went into an uproar.
Many beautiful female celebrities loved to use the title of otaku goddess to hype themselves up. Some even created the concept of a beauty that was rarely seen in 4,000 years. However, ever since Su Mei debuted, she hated being called an otaku goddess the most.
This girl, who had debuted less than two years ago and had only starred in a few movies, had become an A-list celebrity. She was the guest of honor for this award ceremony.
"Haha, looks like Ms. Su is more popular than us," the commentator Li Yidong said as he made a guest appearance as the host.
"I didn't think the game company would be able to invite Ms. Su. The last time I saw her, she had just debuted. She left a deep impression on me," Jiang Gu said. Even though he was already middle-aged, it didn't stop him from being restless.
"Are you happy to see Ms. Su?" Li Yidong asked the three competitors standing next to him.
The Hunter player was so excited that he couldn't speak. Innocent Child was slightly better. After all, he was a celebrity competitor, so he wasn't much different from the average celebrity. He only smiled and said, "I'd be happy if I could get an autograph and a photo."
As for Lu Li, please forgive him. He wasn't an otaku.
Not everyone could be an otaku if they wanted to. He had been extremely busy in both his previous and current lives, so he naturally didn't have the chance to be an otaku.
However, he still knew who Su Mei was. To put it in simpler terms, everyone on Earth knew her, but that was all.
He actually didn't understand why everyone was so excited.
As such, he was wondering if he should act a little more excited. Otherwise, people would always see him as an oddity. He had only experienced a bit of hardship, but he didn't intend to be an oddity.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do it!
As such, what everyone saw was a relatively cold Lu Li. When they asked him if he was excited, he would just nod.
However, no one could tell why he was excited.
This guy really knew how to act!
This guy must like guys!
Let go of that goddess, let me do it!
This was what the majority of the Roaring Kings were thinking.
First, there was the usual nonsense of an award ceremony. Then, Su Mei started to hand out the awards, starting from third place.
The Hunter player didn't have much of a presence from start to finish. After all, he was only third place. After receiving some experience, a piece of equipment, and a small trophy from Goddess Su, he was teleported away.
"Innocent Bro, kiss her! Innocent Bro, kiss her!"
Innocent Child's supporters were definitely going crazy. They were shouting all sorts of things, and they were shouting in unison.
Innocent Child was embarrassed. If he really pounced on Su Mei like a pervert, then his reputation would be completely destroyed. As such, he calmly took the trophy from Su Mei's hands, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor.
The fans were immediately displeased.
"You deserve to never have a girlfriend!"
"Go and masturbate yourself!"
"I've long suspected your sexual orientation. Today, the truth has been revealed!"
Poor Innocent Child. With the huge amount of experience he received from second place, he almost leveled up. However, he didn't feel happy at all. He only felt that the sky that was once blue had suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
The second place winner was also teleported away.
Other than the two amateurs who were watching the commotion, there was only Lu Li, the first place winner, and the guest who was presenting the award to the newcomer, Su Mei.
