Rose Factory
Bai Liu didn't stay long, soon he wrapped Taville's body as if nothing had happened and placed it on the cart, turning to look at the group behind him with the kind of fake smile on his face that both Mu Sicheng, Mu Ke, and Liu Jiayi Tang Er hit could see at a glance, and then said softly:
"Now, let's overthrow this sinful rose factory."
--------
Games hall, graveyard bounce area.
No matter how hard Mu Ke and the others tried to hold on, how hard they tried to hold on to the passing audience and begged them to like or favorite Bai Liu, under the high pressure of the foreign guilds, Bai Liu's little TV still inevitably fell into the graveyard bouncing zone.
Whether it was Mu Ke, who came from a respectable background, or Mu Sicheng, who had always had a favorable family situation, and had never lowered his head from childhood to adulthood, or even in the game, they were all giving up their self-respect and face, and one by one, they were going to pull in the viewers, and help Bai Liu stall for time with all of their might.
Both were wearily relieved to see the game finally come to an end on Bai Liu's little TV.
--This tug-of-war, against an opponent like the King's Guild, is too much for them.
But for now, they can still allow Bai Liu to fall out of the darkroom once and then pay the ransom to get Bai Liu out, which should be enough time for Bai Liu to get through anyway.
"...... Empress, if this goes on, Bai Liu may really be able to get through ...... "Someone with an ugly face attached to the shoulder of the Empress whispered, "This is the season of support, this is also ...... too much of a loss of face, our guild support will be affected. "Now is the season of support, two siege are not blocked, this is also ...... too face down, our guild's team support will be affected ......"
"It won't fail." Heart crossed his arms and without skipping a beat raised his eyes and swept them over Bai Liu's small television, "Soon this siege will be over."
Heart froze next to this man.
Soon someone couldn't hide the excitement on their face as they trotted over, stopping in front of Heart and bowing respectfully before looking up and saying, "Empress! Our team's [Shield] just cleared the game and got out of the pool! Should we send him over now?"
Heart nodded slightly, "Send him over."
The team member who was still worried before changed his face in a flash, he looked at Heart incredulously, then approached the team member who had come to report and asked again, his face clearly bringing out a joyful look, "Is it the official team member of the Battle Team, [Shield] who's going to come over?"
This team member couldn't hide the leap of joy on his face at all, and nodded his head repeatedly, "Yes! As soon as I got out of the game pool, I immediately rushed this way! Already on the way!"
"After [Shield] comes over, this siege will end immediately!"
Mu Sicheng frowned at the King's Guild members who were beginning to stir in the small TV area, "What are they screaming about? Are they going crazy because they can't stop Bai Liu?"
"I don't think so." Mu Ke had a vague sense of foreboding in his mind, "...... They're all laughing."
Mu Ke didn't expect the group of King's Guild members to tell them what the hell they were laughing at, and he quickly opened the system panel and opened the forums, searching through them at a rapid pace for the information he was looking for-
-- Soon, a reddish post caught his attention.
-[The King's Guild's (Shield) has left the game pool and seems to be joining the siege, Heart's too big this time!
"What's ...... [Shield]?" Mu Ke asked rhetorically with a frown.
Mu Sicheng also opened the forums, his face grimaced the moment he saw the title and spoke extremely fast as he explained to Mu Ke, the newcomer, "It's a job title in the battle team."
"The regular functional divisions of the league's Warrior Five teams are [Attack], [Shield], [Wanderer], [Control], and [Tactician]."
"I haven't seen the King's Guild play, but I've heard that their battle team is a dual [Control] team, and both [Control] players are extremely good, one of the [Control] players is Heart, and the other one this year is rumored to be Little Witch."
"Good [Offense] players are hard to find, Heart hasn't been looking for the right rotation, and the quality of the [Offense] players on their team is poor-"
Mu Sicheng raised his eyes that were strewn with gloom, "--But to make up for that, this battle group's [Shield] is extremely strong."
A heavy shaking of feet came from a distance, and Mu Ke turned to look, the expression on his face and his breathing stopping for a moment in a slight--
A huge, Mu Ke couldn't even see the top of his head when he looked up and a tall, monstrous man appeared, the man wore heavy brass armor on his hands and feet, and several rings of spiked anklets at his wrist bones, which clashed with each other as he walked, the rings ringing, and it seemed as if the dimensional space the system had cut out was vibrating with it as he walked.
The man's arms and legs were extremely long, and he swatted away the spectators and crowds that tried to get in his way as easily and simply as if he were swatting away mole crickets, or small grasses that grew overgrown on a country road, and there was no one at all who could stand in his way.
Then he slowly walked up to Heart at the center of the small TV, bowed his head and put his left hand on his heart against the salute, and boomed down on one knee, his voice echoing thickly, like a cannonball humming, shocking people to cover their heads and want to kneel:
"Queen, Τιτν (Titan) is here."
Heart lifted the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly in return before placing her hand on Titan's massive fingers, allowing Titan to awkwardly kiss her back.
"Τιτν, do me a favor (帮我一个忙)." Heart turns to look at Mu Ke standing at the edge, eyes downcast with a light smile, "Beat them, as usual."
In this moment, she smiled with an indescribable resemblance to Bai Liu on the small TV.
Titan rose and turned to face Mu Ke and the others, he held out a palm the size of an adult's head and looked down at the retreating, wary Mu Ke and Mu Sicheng as they opened up.
"Yes, my queen."
[System Alert: Player Titan is using his personal skill (Dimensional Shield) on the entire Bai Liu Small TV space area]
[After using this skill, different spaces will be cut into different time-space dimensions, neither creatures nor non-creatures will be able to enter another space, light and sound will no longer be able to propagate, and the space where the skill is implemented will no longer be merged under the same multidimensional space (including the game hall)]
[Statute of limitations: one-dimensional clock]
In just a moment, the entire area in front of Mu Ke where Bai Liu's small TV was located disappeared out of thin air, leaving only a dark, unapproachable orb.
Pure black, and ornamental area of the general size of the orb suspended inside the rotation of many small twinkling star particles, as if a corner of the universe.
Mu Ke staggered back a couple steps, a bit of despair on his face that he couldn't hide - one dimensional clock, without their outside support, was enough for Bai Liu to fall straight into no man's land!
Unless Bai Liu passes ...... their side before he falls in, there is nothing more that can be done.
--------
Gamblers Club Guild, President's Office.
Charles leaned back in a wide boss chair with his eyes closed, leaning loosely on the leather armrests on either side of the chair with both hands, as if he were thinking about something, his right index finger, which was wearing a big shiny diamond ring, curled up and tapped on the armrests one by one, making a kind of regular and dull percussive sound.
Wang Shun sits restrainedly across from Charles, his hands resting on his knees and his body leaning forward-a very standard gesture of begging for favors and being in a position of vulnerability.
As the person being asked, Charles's relaxed lying posture already shows that he is not thinking that seriously about Wang Shun's request.
"President Charles." Wang Shun raised his volume a little in an attempt to wake up the president who looked like he was already falling asleep, "Just now I've already shown you the videos of Bai Liu's games a few times, he's very promising, strong, and very much in line with your requirements for picking a Dark Horse, so please think about it!"
Charles lazily lifted one eye to look at Wang Shun, a smile on his face with a distinctly flirtatious edge, "He does have my favorite flavor, and if it was ten minutes ago, I might have been convinced by you - but now?"
He slowly sat up straight and held up his index finger and shook it from side to side, "Nonono, I do like dark horses, but I don't like betting on horses that have been staked."
-Undercut stakes means that the horse has been targeted by someone else before it even enters the track, such as putting small nails in the horseshoes so that the horse can't run well enough to even make it to the track.
Bai Liu's current situation means that Charles has been staked by the King's Guild.
Charles rifled through the information Wang Shun had compiled for him about Bai Liu on his desktop with a little regret, caressed Bai Liu's face lovingly twice, and then unceremoniously threw it into the trash can under the desktop.
"I won't tell your boss, Heart, that her inner circle came to me to promote a newcomer." Charles swept a smirking glance at the nervous Wang Shun, his white-gloved hands slowly folding his ten fingers in front of the small of his back as he added the second half of the sentence, "--a newcomer who is being targeted by her."
"But you've wasted almost ......" Charles lifted his hand to pluck the end of his glove and glance at his equally diamond encrusted wristwatch, "thirty dimensional minutes convincing me to take on a man who's about to be completely worthless as a valuable newcomer."
"My time is very precious, and there is always some price you have to pay for wasting it so casually." Charles glanced up at Wang Shun as he raised the civilized cane that rested by the legs of his chair and stood up nonchalantly, walking behind Wang Shun, who had a tight waist and back, and then sliding his gloved hands on Wang Shun's shoulders downward in an ambiguous tone, "There is no coming to my place and leaving nothing behind. "
"-Give me some information that only you know, my lovely Mr. Pepsi."
The staff of civilization had somehow gotten stuck around Wang Shun's neck, and Charles' slow, methodical upward movement was beginning to suffocate Wang Shun, making him want to struggle - but Wang Shun controlled his movements as he tore at this staff of civilization.
Now he's just being threatened, touching him would really kill him today!
Charles hated it when people touched his ornaments and magic props - like diamond watches, rings, like this custom-made civilized cane in his hand made of some rare wood he didn't know.
"Ahem--" Wang Shun was strangled to the point that blood was starting to pop out of his eyeballs, and he tried his best to lean back in his chair to lessen the pressure of the cane on his windpipe, "You really won't regret investing in Bai Liu's -- --"
"I know of a prophecy made by a Counter-Crusader to Bai Liu--"
The civilized staff is instantly jerked away, and Wang Shun covers his neck and chokes violently.
Charles took out a beautifully crafted silk scarf from his pocket and wiped the civilized staff that had strangled Wang Shun from end to end, tossed it to the side, and then turned his head to look at Wang Shun thoughtfully: "--Reverse Cross Cultist? The guy who ranked third in the overall standings? I remember he was originally called-"
"[Judge of the Counter God] - this year, ahem, he only changed his name to [Counter Crusader] after transferring from the sixth guild [Deer Hunter] to the first guild [Slayer Sequence]." Wang Shun wiped away his strangled tears with the palm of his hand and took two big, deep breaths before slowing down to look at Charles, "You know what the skill of this player [Judge of the Counter God] is, right?"
Charles lightly glanced at Wang Shun, "Prophecy."
"To be exact the name of his skill is called [Listening to God's Only Words]." Wang Shun gasped, "I probed into one of his inner prophecies earlier, one related to Bai Liu."
Charles points his civilized staff at Wang Shun's heart, makes a gentlemanly gesture of invitation, and smiles a harmless smile, "I'd like to hear more."
