What if I become an elf?

Chapter 78 Lottery

It was a boxy, ordinary white cardboard box with a Pokémon League logo simply printed on the corner.

The carton was placed in the center of the podium by the staff.

"Okay, the next thing to do is the drawing ceremony for the knockout rounds."

On the side, Audrey, who was wearing a light pink dress, held a microphone in her hand and introduced in a broadcasting voice.

"But I still have to trouble President Damalanchi."

Damalanqi smiled kindly at Audrey, and then walked to the white cardboard box.

He stretched out his right hand and reached down through the small hole in the carton.

The arm symbolically stirred in the cardboard box, and then took out a pure black small ball.

Dama Lanqi twisted the black ball away with a slight twist, revealing a piece of paper with the player's name written inside.

Unfold it and face the camera with the player's name on the note.

"The No.1 contestant has been announced"

“Ozawa from the Kanto region”

Audrey's sweet voice came from the side.

"And the player he will face is"

President Damalanqi took out another black ball from the cardboard box and took out the note inside.

"Amma"

Offstage,

Lanny sat nervously in his seat, staring intently at the lottery ceremony taking place on the stage.

The sixteen players participating in the knockout round will be divided into two groups, with eight people in each group.

According to the order of drawing lots, pairs within the group will play against each other. The winner will advance and the loser will be eliminated.

The finals will be played by the winners of the two groups to determine the champion of this league competition.

Lanny has a very clear understanding of his own strength. Combining the detailed information about other players provided by the organization, he feels that except for Noen and Zi Ling, he can compete with all the other players who have advanced to the top [-]. Power.

Therefore, the ideal lottery result in his mind is that Zi Ling and Nuo En are placed in the same group, while he is drawn in another group.

In this case, he can avoid encountering these two monsters before the finals. In other words, he can at least get the runner-up result in the league competition, which is far beyond his expected results.

Of course, this is only the most ideal grouping. In fact, in order to increase the ratings, under the alliance's behind-the-scenes operation, the battle between Norn and Zi Ling, the two most explosive figures in this competition, will definitely be reserved for the general meeting. Final.

The chance of the two of them being assigned to the same group is almost zero.

In order to achieve the previously set goal of entering the quarterfinals, Lanni only needs to avoid encountering Noen and Zi Ling in the first round.

Lanny believed that his luck would not be so bad.

"Next, is the player Norn needs to face."

On the stage, Audrey's clear voice woke Lanny out of his thoughts.

With a sudden tug in his heart, Lanny stared at the note in Damalanqi's hand.

"Xiaoya"

call

Lanny secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the "Xiaoya" player sitting not far away from the corner of his eye.

I saw that he seemed a little lost at this time, with a look of loss in his eyes.

At the same time, Noen on the other side still had that smile that seemed to remain unchanged for eternity, and nodded towards the camera lens.

"really"

Looking back, Lanny sighed in his heart.

At this time, the names of eight players have been reported, which means that the draw results of the first group have come out.

But he and Zi Ling were no longer among them. They had been assigned to the second largest group.

In other words, before the finals, he will definitely encounter the powerful Poison King's daughter: Zi Ling.

As for whether it is a quarter-final match or a semi-final match, it depends on your luck.

On the stage, the lottery ceremony was still going on in an orderly manner.

In the audience, Lanny's mood gradually became more and more nervous as each name was announced.

Neither he nor Zi Ling have been drawn yet.

"No way"

In my heart, a strange premonition slowly arose.

"The opponent Zi Ling will face is"

at last,

Zi Ling's name strip was pulled out.

Lanny's heart was beating wildly, and the strange premonition in his heart became stronger.

“Ranny from the Kanto region”

The pupils of his eyes tightened, and Lanny was stunned.

Then, as if he was discouraged, he placed his hands weakly on his sides, leaned back, and slumped in his seat.

In the corner of the auditorium, Zi Ling hugged her tall chest with her hands, lowered her head and closed her eyes slightly. Even when her name was read on the stage, her beautiful face remained expressionless, as if it didn't matter what opponent she met. Revealing a touch of coldness.

that night,

In the player room.

Lanni was lying on the soft bed in a big shape, with faint thoughts echoing in the room.

"how come"

"What a bad luck"

Although Lanny had anticipated this worst outcome before the game, he never expected that it would actually occur.

Meeting Zi Ling in the first round of the knockout round, he had almost no hope of winning.

And if you fail and only achieve the top [-], then unless there is a special opportunity, your mission of establishing a firm foothold in the alliance will almost be declared a failure.

"Ugh"

In the room, Lanny let out a long sigh.

"Only use that."

Faced with this desperate situation, Lanny's only way now is to rent a powerful Pokémon through the organization's rental system.

But Lanny was not happy, not that he was reluctant to give up his points, but that this method was too risky.

Think about it, a professional trainer suddenly takes out a powerful Pokémon that has never appeared in front of others during a competition.

If someone is interested and investigates more carefully, his identity as a spy may be exposed.

"no solution anymore"

And now in order to complete the organization's mission, Lanny has no choice but to take risks.

While thinking about excuses to explain to the outside world in the future, Lanny turned on his mobile phone.

After some skillful operation, he entered the backend of the "Dark Star" exclusive app.

Then I added a few keywords to the search bar of the rental library.

Strength: Elite main battle elite ace

Rarity: low

Strong fighting ability

First of all, Lanny has very high requirements for the strength of the rental elves.

After all, the elves on loan are to be used to deal with Zi Ling. If the battle still fails after taking the field, then it will be equivalent to losing his wife and losing troops. Not only will he not be able to enter the top eight, but he will also increase the risk of exposure, but it will be in vain. It's just a waste of points.

Secondly, he felt that the rented elves should not be too conspicuous, and it was best to be ones that could be seen everywhere in the wild. In this case, it would not only reduce the attention of others, but also make it easier for him to explain in the future.

The last point is that the scope is relatively broad.

According to the information about Zi Ling provided by the organization, Lanni felt that with his current Pokémon team, in a 6v6 round battle, he should be able to replace the opponent's four Pokémon after excluding the ace Pokémon.

This also means that the elves you rent out must have 1v2 or even 1v3 strength.

This is a great test of the elf's abilities in terms of endurance, on-the-spot performance, and combat sense.

And according to his own situation, in order to reduce the risk of exposure as much as possible, Lanny can only rent an elf.

Therefore, it is necessary to have strong combat capabilities.

After setting the keywords, Lanny pressed the search button lightly.
