Thriller Paradise

At 1:15 am, the first round of the semi-finals, hell frontline versus red Sakura, came to an end.

As a result, Hell's frontline won yet another victory with no casualties.

At this point, underworld frontline, a team made up of non-professional players, became the first team to officially enter the final list.

Furthermore ... In the process of their advancement, they had never been killed by the enemy. The only time they had died ... Was when they had killed each other.

This kind of strength had already made them the hot favorites to win the championship.

…………

After that, there was a three-minute break.

This 'three minutes' naturally referred to three minutes in the real world.

In the game world, the next 30 minutes was a break.

Even in sleep mode, the audience would feel tired after watching more than ten hours of competition. Therefore, there was no need to rush to the second match.

At this moment ... It was more appropriate to insert some advertisements or something.

On top of that, dream Inc.'S host (since this round was split into different parts, there were also commentators, and viewers could choose whether to accept the audio of the commentary) also took the time to summarize the first round.

What they said ... Was mostly content targeted at the grassroots audience. It was nothing more than the strength of the two teams, their performance in the field, strategic deployment, and other things.

Of course, they couldn't say anything deeper. If they were to go into detail, they might reveal information about the two teams.

After about 15 minutes of idle chit-chat, the online director felt that it was about time and sent a signal to the hosts.

Hence, the hosting team stopped talking about the first match and started making pre-match predictions for the second match between loser Alliance and world of martial arts.

Every match in the semi-final was full of highlights, and this match was no exception ...

First of all, world of martial arts was a well-known studio and could be said to be the leader of medium-sized Studios. Their reputation, reputation, and individual strength were all excellent. Many industry insiders believed that if their company was as big as order or the gods, then the current situation of "two powerhouses competing" might become a "three-legged tripod."

In this match, the performance of the world of martial arts team was remarkable. In the team, other than the long-established "blade and sword smile" duo, there was also the brother-sister duo,[not a scaredy cat] and [Sky Song]. Of these two, the former had only recently switched to a professional player, while the latter was a "former member of constellation"... Both of them had used their battle records in S2 to prove that they had the ability to rise to the top.

Then, he looked at the side of the trash Alliance.

Although this team did not have any studio background, their four main members were all professional players who fought in the game under their own names. Moreover, they were all recognized as top players in S1, or even before that.

The two words "Alliance" reflected the form and spirit of this team very well.

And their path of advancement, to some extent, was very similar to that of Hell's frontline ... In most cases, it was a complete victory, always giving people the feeling that they were at ease.

In summary, it was really hard to say who would win in the confrontation between these two teams ...

…………

At 1:19 am, the second round of the semi-finals officially began.

The scenario that the two teams were randomly assigned to was a place called the moving maze.

This labyrinth was constantly changing, and ... It was filled with all kinds of powerful monsters.

In addition, there were also two NPC forces from different factions active in the maze. They were obviously important characters that could influence the battle.

In terms of members ... Trash Alliance's lineup was unmovable. Uncle trash, ambitionist, King of Shadows, and tired dream would be in charge of the competition, while teacher Chu would be in charge of supporting the others.

On the other hand, the way world of martial arts arranged their troops was a little unexpected. They sent out bladeless swordsman, flashes of sword, not a scaredy cat, and Sky Song to participate in the battle, but they let ask the heavens smile, who was the highest in the individual ability ranking (in the team) and the 'Captain', be their substitute.

Outsiders might not be able to understand this situation, but the higher-ups of the underworld knew that this was the will of [asking the heavens with a smile].

As mentioned in the previous article, world of martial arts was a studio that was founded by the three of them, laughing blade. They were not only online players, but they were also managers of companies in real life.

Unlike Jin Fugui's "frost monarch," these three didn't have any rich fathers to "invest" in them. They had started from scratch ... Under such circumstances, it was obviously unrealistic to "spend money" to "hire people" to manage their own companies.

In the early days of the studio's establishment, the three of them had done the work of eighteen people. From the CEO to the cleaner, the three of them had done everything before they slowly made it to the top ...

Now, world of martial arts 'business was growing. Even though they no longer needed to clean the place and buy takeaway boxes by themselves, they gradually realized that it was time for them to end their days of working on both the game and the operations.

Although gods 'Shiva was also a man who was the boss of a studio and a player, he was the "Chairman"... Other than some major decisions, most of the other daily affairs could be handed over to his subordinates.

However, the situation in the underworld was different. They were now at a turning point ... If they wanted to further expand the company's scale, they had to make a decision ...

And so,[asking the heavens with a smile] made his choice.

His plan was ... To first "fade out", then "retire", then focus all his work on the company's operations. He would strive to make Jiang Hu a big, front-line studio within a year. When everything was on track, whether or not he should return as a player would be considered ...

Of course, he was also very clear ... In the esports industry, it was very rare for players to succeed in their "comeback." In particular, events that required physical strength and instantaneous reaction. Generally speaking ... As long as a player passed the age of 25, their overall condition would begin to decline. If they stopped the system training for a period of time, then there was an 80% chance that their condition would never return.

Asking the heavens had also thought about it ... Rather than letting the fans sigh at lianpo's old age and sigh at the player's declining form, it was better to retire when he was in good form.

Initially, asking the heavens had not wanted to participate in the S2 competition. However, in order to help the newcomers and ensure that they could go further in the competition ... He still took some time to participate in some preliminaries.

Now that the team had reached the semi-finals, he felt that the time had come.

Even if they won this match, they only had one more match to play. Hence, ask the heavens might as well not participate in this match.

Whether they won or lost, he would let the two rising stars, not a scaredy cat and little bu, gain more experience in this competition. In the future ... There might be more occasions that they would have to deal with.

…………

At 2:40 A. M., Which was " 13 and a half hours" of game time, the results of the second round of the semi-finals were announced.

This match ended with the loser Alliance's victory.

Although the time taken was longer than the first round, the process of the competition was not considered to be in a stalemate.

Ambitionist's scheme had given the good-for-nothing Alliance an advantage, and the detection abilities of King of Shadows 'summoned creatures were also unbeatable.

Thus, an hour after the start of the match, they had the initiative in terms of intelligence and strategy ...

Meanwhile, the members of world of martial arts were constantly in a state of exhaustion.

Logically speaking, in such a situation, the slightest mistake would result in a loss of members or even a team wipe, but world of martial arts still relied on their strength to tenaciously hold on for more than ten hours.

But in the end ... Trash Alliance still won without even using their full strength.

Mysterious strength, mysterious limits, just like hellfrontline ... Yet another team without any studio background had entered the finals.

…………

It was a three-minute break.

The advertisers were getting impatient ...

The hosts were also very busy. The contestants had taken a break, but they couldn't take a break (in the process of the game, the hosts had a lot of opportunities to take a break. After all, there wasn't much content to talk about every minute). The analysis and commentary in the arena couldn't be lacking.

Even though world lost miserably, the host and the audience still had a good impression of them. The two newcomers from team Jianghu also received a lot of praise.

The results of this match had also proven that sometimes ..."Losing miserably" did not mean "losing in an ugly way." There might be a gap in strength between them and the opponent, but as long as they worked hard to the best of their abilities, they could win respect even if they lost.

As for loser Alliance, the hosts were also praising them. Under the director's instructions, they had already begun to consciously compare this team with the previous Hell's frontline ...

…………

At 2:44 am, the third round of the semi-finals began.

Warring States period VS mountain river.

Before the match, the predictions for this match could be said to be one-sided ... Even the official hosts, who should have maintained an objective and neutral attitude, had revealed a message from their words that mountain river was in danger.

Indeed, mountain river was a very capable studio. Led by Pikachu ... No... Led by autumn wind, with matcha su as the vice-captain, it was not an exaggeration to say that mountain river team one was the "strongest in history."

But ... After watching the previous semi-final, even the analysis team of mountain river felt that ... The chances of defeating Warring States were very slim.

The analysis of the individual strength of the Warring States team members was not very optimistic. Putting aside the prejudices of foreign Studios, and objectively analyzing it ... The strength of the Warring States team one was on the same level as gods and order.

Before reaching the semi-finals, their strength had been acknowledged by many, but for various reasons ... They had still been underestimated.

It wasn't until the Sengoku battle team was standing at the threshold of the finals that people seemed to realize that their Captain had defeated the last champion in a one-on-one fight. Their entire journey of advancement had been Swift and decisive, using force to break through. Up until now, none of their team members had lost a single match.

The reason why Warring States studio's team did not rank in the top ten in the preliminaries was not because they were not strong enough, but purely because they were almost 'condescending' when it came to strategy. Most of the time, they didn't even consider using their "influence." Therefore, in many matches, they won by relying on the combat power of both the enemy team and the NPCs.

However, in the semi-final stage, their style changed slightly. Although it was only "slightly," they had indeed become more cautious ... At least they would no longer ignore the power of NPCs or rush into obvious traps.

If they wanted to defeat Warring States, mountain river would need a miracle ...

…………

At 2:52 am, a miracle did not happen.

An " 80-minute" match ended.

Autumn zither had tried his best. Half an hour after the scenario started, he had successfully obtained the full support of the NPC forces. Then, he used 100000 volts ... I mean, he mobilized 100000 soldiers (scripted force, armed with cold weapons) to encircle and annihilate the four enemies.

In the end, he realized that everyone on team Zhan Guo ... Had a lot of experience in 'mowing'.

Each of them could kill an average of 320 enemies per minute. If they could kill 1000 enemies in three minutes, then four of them would kill 4000 enemies ...

At this rate, the 100000-strong Army could only hold on for less than an hour and a half.

What was worth rejoicing was ... Those 100000 NPCs were no fools. 7 - 8 minutes later, when they discovered that their losses had already exceeded 10000, and that the enemy did not seem to be tired at all ... They decided to run.

Otherwise ... The audience would really have to watch unparalleled cutting grass for nearly an hour and a half ...

Therefore, the "momentum" that Shan He had borrowed was turned into nothingness by the other party's "power."

Seeing this, matcha su decided to use the one-time-use trump card that she had planned to use in the finals. She had used her S-level workmanship to create a Gundam.

However, the four from the Warring States period had used their swords to tear down the Gundam ...

At this point, the match had lost its suspense.

…………

Just like that, the dust settled over the three matches, and the three final teams were decided.

The last match would determine the final spot.

And the two sides of this match ... Were also enough to take on the heavy responsibility of the finale.

Order VS gods.

The words "power struggle" were the best interpretation of the outcome of this battle.

However ... Just as everyone's blood was boiling, dream Inc. Suddenly poured a bucket of cold water over them.

[Important Notice: attention all players, attention all players ... In order not to affect the players 'daily lives during the day, our tribe has discussed and decided with the members of the two teams that the fourth semi-final match, gods VS order, will be postponed to tomorrow at midnight. Today's match will end here.] (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.
