As time went by, the contestants left the arena one by one. This E-Sports match had entered the crucial stage where a few heavyweight contestants would fight for the championship.
Now, the contestants in the second arena were two people we were very familiar with: Iori Yagami and Kyo Kusanagi.
Please don't complain about the contestants, please!
Two old enemies, old enemies who were bound to break out into a war every time they met, had now appeared on such a platform and used an e-sports game to decide the outcome. This was really shocking. Only the ruthless Space Administration could make such a thing happen. Now, the match had begun, but Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami hadn't sat down yet. Instead, they looked at each other across the table as if they wanted to suppress each other in terms of momentum before the match began.
"Humph, today is the day you lose. Come at me. I'll let you make three moves first!" Kyo Kusanagi said confidently.
Iori Yagami didn't back down. "Boring. I'll let you make three moves first. Go ahead!"
"I'll stand still and let you hit me."
"Use cheating to gain unlimited rage! I won't resist! "
"Use whatever ultimate moves you have! I lose even if I move a little! "
"You first!"
"You first!"
My eyes were brimming with tears. Iori Yagami chose Kyo Kusanagi, and Kyo Kusanagi chose Iori Yagami. What are you two doing?
“Time Over！”
The audience was speechless.
Get the hell down here, you two bastards!
The competition proceeded in this kind of annoying atmosphere. What was the final result … Ugh, anyway, I think it was like this:
The undying human defeated the troll human. The Horde was depressed because the Alliance lost. Shicha Shrine used Iori Yagami to defeat Kyo Kusanagi's Shicha Shrine. After Shicha Shrine was defeated by Shicha Shrine, Kyo Kusanagi used Kyo Kusanagi to defeat Kyo Kusanagi. The New Eden player used Proteus to teach a lesson to the humans under Proteus player's control in the second round. After Proteus was defeated by Proteus, the Proteus audience in the arena became excited. So, in the second round, they used humans to defeat the humans …
The troll player used Proteus to defeat Shicha Shrine's Zerg. Kyo Kusanagi used Kyo Kusanagi to defeat Kyo Kusanagi's Kyo Kusanagi. The Night Elves' Beastmen were defeated by the Night Elves. After Chris defeated Chris, Chris entered the finals. After Loana's Loana was defeated by Loana, Chizuru Kagura entered the finals. Nihongaru's Dizzy lost to Dizzy. The audience outside the arena was divided into several groups. The Horde was shouting for the Alliance. The Alliance was shouting for the Horde. The humans were planning to kill the humans. Proteus remained silent. The fighters from the King of Fighters World were shouting "Long live Aiur". The Storm City delegation started waving Loana's flag. Tykes? Finley was carried off the stage halfway through the match. It was said that he went into self-protective shock due to a severe mental disorder. As for Sarah Kerrigan, she used her astonishing willpower to complete the second half of the live broadcast. Zeratul led a group of Proteus Elders to distribute leaflets outside the arena to call for people to calm down. However, one of the Elders suddenly shouted "For the Peaceful Blue World" before leaving. This caused the operation to not go smoothly. In the end, the City of Shadows sent out a large number of Town Security to suppress the hot-blooded fighters from the King of Fighters. This was because they announced that as long as the Holy Mothership was weakened, they would protest for another day. Sandora ate all the food stalls outside the arena during the match. Shallow Shallow's eyes were drawing circles on a mosquito coil. I didn't dare to imagine what kind of strange thoughts she would have after today's inspiration. However, I'm afraid that an even more brutal worldview destroyer has been activated.
As for me, as you can see, I still haven't sorted out who won the match just now …
However, there is one thing I am sure of. If I continue to be so serious, I will lose.
Yup, should we be glad that Bubble didn't participate in this match?
"Wow, this is delicious!" The golden-haired girl who was walking beside me was holding a bunch of weirdly shaped barbecued meat in one hand. In her other hand, there was a woven bag that looked like it could hold 30 to 50 kilograms of rice. She was currently eating with her mouth covered in grease. "Ah Jun, why don't you try this?"
I turned my head to look at Sandora. Her bright ocean blue eyes were shining with a radiance that could move one's heart. I used all my strength to suppress the urge in my heart that was about to be killed by her cuteness. Turning my head away, I said, "I'm not hungry."
I definitely couldn't forget the painful memories that I brought upon myself after I accidentally neglected Sandora's recipe.
What could Sandora eat? This question was just as stupid as what Sandora couldn't eat. In theory, as long as it was a symbol that appeared on the periodic table of elements, any random item would be able to enter the stomach of this queen. Just by opening her mouth, she could directly eat everything from hydrogen to hydrogen, then turn around and eat it again in a random combination. However, I had forgotten this common sense question. When Sandora passionately recommended a barbecued meat to me, my heart was moved and I was bewitched by this little girl's large sparkling eyes …
How should I put it? The barbecued meat in Sandora's hands reminded me of the high-calorie dishes that she had grandly introduced in the past. They were all made with inconceivable ingredients and had astonishing effects. Not only that, if it was dropped on the ground, it would burn a hole the size of an egg.
Once again, I sighed at the wonders of the world. There really were all kinds of strange creatures in the multiverse. How do you think they managed to eat such things?
As usual, the gathering grounds were packed with people. However, the situation today was clearly more orderly than the past two days. After the initial two days of inexperience, the commanders of the City of Shadows and the assistants of the various worlds had gradually grasped the knack of organizing such large-scale events. At the very least, they had grasped the knack of avoiding certain situations. Under the guidance of the experienced guides, the order of the carnival became more and more satisfactory.
After walking around with the two girls for half a day, we visited all the places that we were interested in in the morning. Although we were 'patrolling the venue incognito', to be honest, the few of us really had nothing to do this morning.
Unknowingly, we gradually arrived at the periphery of the gathering grounds, entering the area where the inner city of the City of Shadows intersected. Shallow Shallow's interest in sightseeing was still far from dying out, but I was already starting to give up. The strange and bizarre activities of the carnival were indeed interesting, but one had to allow for a moment of aesthetic fatigue. I wasn't like Shallow Shallow, who was always in a state of maximum energy. After wandering around for an entire morning, it was time to rest.
Thus, I got the hungry Sandora to accompany Shallow Shallow to stroll around the Multiverse Food Street. After that, I left the gathering grounds by myself and walked towards the inner city of the City of Shadows. I intended to first visit Sylvia's shop to see if I could get some desserts from her.
Ten minutes later.
"Or should I say, as expected, I met you here …"
In Sylvia's shop, I looked at the Red and White Witch who was sitting by the window, using the tea set that she brought along with her and enjoying the desserts in the shop while drowsily basking in the sun. I sighed in resignation.
"Ahh, don't be so serious. Anyway, today's patrol is already over."
Ling Meng, who had finished her morning work, had already entered her tea drinking mode. Even when she spoke, she sounded soft and lazy. Although I was certain that this fellow was here before the end of her patrol, looking at how she was enjoying the sun, sigh, forget it. I might as well hope that Jingle didn't fail her exams instead of relying on Ling Meng's moral integrity.
With a helpless expression, I shrugged my shoulders and waited patiently for Sylvia to serve the coffee. I was different from Ling Meng, who openly brewed her own tea in someone else's shop!
"It's already the third day since the start of the carnival."
After a moment of silence, Ling Meng suddenly said faintly.
"And now, it's already the tenth day since I arrived here."
"Eh, you want to go home?" I looked at the hundred thousand RMB in front of me in astonishment … Ling Meng's sudden sigh made me a little suspicious. Could it be that she had finally remembered that she was the lady boss of the Boli Shrine after accumulating her moral integrity for the past few days?
"Slurp slurp …" The young girl held up her teacup and sipped the steaming hot tea. The huge bow behind her head swayed along with the tea. "How should I put it … I'm a little worried."
"If the Boli Shrine's witch and the strongest guardian monster of Fantasy Village aren't here, how long will those fellows be able to stay put?"
"It shouldn't be that bad, right? Although monsters seem to have their own personalities, they have lived in peace for so many years. They should more or less be used to peaceful days. "
"You really don't act like a ruler. You're too optimistic." Even the unprincipled Ling Meng pointed out this point. "Although it's good to think of things in the best light, you should still be a little worried about what's going on over there. It's not that easy for monsters to get along with each other, and monsters that don't attack humans don't exist. If they know that Purple and I aren't home, they will definitely cause a commotion. "
"It's not like you to worry about such things."
"Slurp slurp … Of course I want to have a good sleep for the first time in peace, but if there's a big mess in Fantasy Village, I'll have a headache too. Fox is so badly injured. Although it doesn't look like it was caused by a monster, I feel like something has happened. Slurp slurp … It's not that I don't believe the prophet's words, but if I can go back and check on the situation as soon as possible, it'll put Purple at ease. Then, I can completely relax and have a good cup of tea. "
Sure enough, she was annoyed by Eight Cloud Purple's nagging these few days, so she was complaining here!!
"But then again, it's really peaceful now …"
Ling Meng held up the teacup in front of her and let the hot steam steam on her face. She sighed in enjoyment. "Do you want some tea? 20% off … "
You might as well package yourself up and sell it.
No, this girl has already packaged herself up and sold it!
How should she put it? Perhaps she should suspect that a certain Hongbai's ability to attract mutation resonated with her own ability to attract trouble. Just as Bo Li Ling Meng, who had been idling away for half a day, was lamenting about how peaceful the world was, a faint commotion came from afar.
From the sound, it seemed to be coming from a nearby street.
"Ah, are they quarreling again?"
Sylvia held a plate of chocolate pastries and slowly turned her head to look outside the shop. She muttered as if she was used to it.
"Quarreling again?" I looked at her in surprise. "Someone has been causing trouble here recently?"
"It's not causing trouble," Ling Meng put down the teacup in her hand dejectedly. "It's just two merchants from different worlds quarreling all day at this time because of some customs. Ah, what bad luck. Usually, I could just ignore it, but today, you just had to stare at me."
What this girl meant was that she already knew that there were people causing trouble on the street, but she still chose to ignore it every day. I know that you are lazy, but at least don't say it in front of your current boss!
I was worried that someone might cause a ruckus during the carnival, so I pulled the reluctant Soul Dream to the shopping street. There were already quite a number of people gathered in the direction of the commotion. There were people from all over the world. But what made me relieved was that even though it was noisy, there didn't seem to be any signs of fighting. Otherwise, the people from the neighborhood committee would have come out by now.
When we arrived at the scene, Ling Meng finally revealed a serious expression. She took out the armband of the Town Security from her pocket and wore it on the wide sleeves of her witch attire. She waved a coin in one hand and raised a loudspeaker in the other. She shouted loudly, "Move aside! Move aside! The Town Security is here! Those who cause trouble, obstruct the traffic, affect the construction of spiritual civilization in the City of Shadows, and interfere with the harmonious society of the Empire will be deducted five points every time they are found. If they are found twice, their business license will be revoked. If they are found thrice, they will be forcibly sent back to their original world. For more details, please refer to the City of Shadows' Public Security Management and Punishment Regulations, Chapter 3, Article 14. Move aside — — Let me catch my breath first. "
Ling Meng's charming voice was very effective. The crowd of onlookers immediately scattered like birds and beasts. It seemed that the title of 'God of City Management' had already spread among these idle people.
After the crowd dispersed, the two quarreling parties were revealed in front of us.
There were two middle-aged men dressed in clothing from another world. One of them was wearing a wide-sleeved robe while the other was wearing a tight-fitting leather suit. Although I couldn't tell what their original identity was in this world, I could tell from the small stall behind them that they were probably two "traveling merchants from another world" who had decided to set up a stall in the City of Shadows. With the astonishing business opportunities during the Multiverse Carnival, there were many merchants who changed their line of business to start a small business.
The other party was in a daze. Clearly, they had yet to recover from their heated quarrel due to the sudden change in their surroundings. However, the moment they saw Ling Meng, they immediately reacted and exclaimed in unison, "Heavens! Red and white demons! "
A certain witch was instantly enraged. "I will revoke your license!"
I pushed Ling Meng back and went forward to ask the reason for their quarrel. In the end, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was because of the color of their clothes.
"A yellow stripe on a blue background is the symbol of an evil cult! Even in the Holy Capital, as a cultivator, I can't turn a blind eye to such blatant blasphemy! "
"Nonsense! Your black robe with red edges and white emblems is obviously the prison uniform of a death row convict! I'd rather die than go out in that kind of thing! "
"You # ¥# @ evil cult disciple!"
"You should be sent to the gallows, you despicable @ ¥#! # ¥! "
I broke out in cold sweat as I listened from the side. After such a long time, it was actually this kind of thing again.
That's right, this wasn't the first time that a riot had occurred due to a clash of cultures.
The City of Shadows was now the Capital of the Multiverse, also known as the Holy Capital. God knows how many worlds and civilizations gathered here. Sorting out their beliefs, it was enough to make Bubble cry for his parents and act cute once. With so many cultures mixed together, it was inevitable that there would be conflicts of beliefs. The various riots that occurred in the City of Shadows during the Multiverse Carnival were mostly due to this reason.
Actually, the City of Shadows always had its own rules to mediate or suppress cultural conflicts between members of different races. For example, if two races were to have a sharp conflict, they would be divided into different areas, and if there were minor conflicts, they would be mediated.
But how to put it, after all, there were many birds coming from every forest. Such a loose civilian organization like the Macro World couldn't possibly be as orderly as the various races of the Empire's servant army. Disputes like today's were unavoidable. Even if the parties involved didn't start fighting due to the local rules.
"In other words, you can't stand to see the other party's clothing offending the taboos of your own culture, right?"
I rubbed my forehead as I thought about it. The two people in front of me nodded. "We also know that there are rules, but this fellow keeps walking around in front of us. I'm really angry!"
"Alright, it's not appropriate to chase one of you to another district just for this case. Furthermore, there are too many similar cases. We have to think of a way to settle this once and for all …" I pondered and voiced out my thoughts. "In other words, you feel that the other party should respect your own culture?"
I nodded.
"Then I agree with your adherence to your own culture."
The other party instantly revealed an overjoyed expression. Although they didn't seem to recognize that the person in front of them was the supreme ruler of this area, an existence that could make the God of Town Security bow his head to was definitely a high-ranking official — — this was their judgment. Since the high-ranking official had spoken, then their 'rights' definitely wouldn't be a problem!
"However," Seeing the change in their expressions, I changed the topic. "It's fine for you to request others to follow your own culture, but in return, you should also show respect. At the very least, you should know the culture and traditions of others. There shouldn't be any objections to this, right?"
The two of them looked at each other in confusion, but they still nodded. "That seems to be the case."
"Hey, why do I feel that this is a little contradictory?"
Ling Meng secretly tugged on my sleeve and muttered. However, I didn't reply to her. Instead, I smiled and said to the two in front of me, "Alright, this is what you said yourself. You must first understand the culture and traditions of others before you have the qualifications to be respected by others."
The two of them were obviously a little confused, but my words didn't give them any time to refute or seriously think about it. In the face of such a reasonable theory, the two of them finally nodded.
"That's good. Take a look at this thing first."
I nodded with satisfaction and took out two large piles of things from my dimensional pocket.
A total of two tons of printing paper was placed on the ground with a bang. It was as if a small mountain had fallen, causing the entire ground to shake twice. The two middle-aged men who were previously busy arguing were instantly dumbfounded.
"This is a summary of the culture and traditions of all the races that are currently participating in the Carnival. Of course, this is just a table of contents. Take a look first. Tomorrow, I will send two transport planes to drop the rest of the information here. There should be around 20 to 30 tons of detailed information. Lastly, there should be around 42 tons of accessories, all of which are pictures and the like. According to normal logic, if you want others to abide by your beliefs, you must first understand the culture of others. Respect is mutual … En, where do you want to start? I still have half a ton of history and more than three tons of local customs and traditions … Err, you there, Ling Meng, contact the medical center. There are two people here who need emergency treatment. "
There was no response from the side. I turned around and saw a certain red-and-white person looking at the mountain of documents and the papers that were falling like snowflakes with a dazed expression. After a long time, he looked at me with admiration and said, "You win! So it can be like this!"
"From now on, this will be the rule. If there are any fellows who don't follow the regulations of the City of Shadows' culture and quarrel over some trivial matters, they will have to carry this thing!"
