Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

A new day, a new training, and…?

"Beichen, who is this? No, no, why are you here? Ah! No, no, I mean you are not............?"

? ? ? ?

Beichen, who brought Xiaolan to the training ground early in the morning, suddenly had a lot of question marks in his head.

What is right and wrong, Maria, is there a problem with loading the language module?

Beichen’s right hand touched Maria’s forehead, and then touched his own and Xiaolan’s foreheads.

"Strange, this isn't burnt either?"

Beichen muttered to himself in confusion.

Sofia happened to arrive at the training ground at this time. She saw Beichen sitting on a small bench and Maria standing stupidly on the side at a glance, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Beichen, you're not.............?"

"Zofia, why do you start talking about this?"

So what is it?

"Stop, stop, stop. I think I know what you want to ask."

Beichen waved his hand and then spoke.

"Let me make it clear in advance. I am fine. Regarding yesterday's game, I was not injured at all. The injuries and blood you saw were all fake."

Beichen also took out an unused blood bag from his pocket and shook it.

"It's just an act. See how worried you are. Also, don't tell anyone about what I said. I don't think I'll be out in public for the next week. If that doesn't work out, I'll just move into a tent and live next to the training ground."

Beichen finished this long paragraph in one breath, and then looked at the two people beside him.

"Why, is there anything else you want to ask? Don't delay your training."

"I have a question!"

Maria raised her hand.

"Okay, Maria-san, what's your question?"

"So, who is this person?"

Maria's focus was indeed on Xiaolan, who was sitting obediently on a small stool nearby.

"Just call her Xiaolan. She's my companion who just came to Casimir recently."

Beichen reached out and poked Xiaolan's round face, then spoke.

"Is that so? I understand."

Maria nodded, but still kept her eyes on Xiaolan, observing her carefully.

"I have a lot of questions about yesterday's game."

Zofia spoke up.

"I think I know what you want to ask. Regarding the Rusted Bronze Knight, I guess he doesn't dare to participate in any competitions anymore."

Rusty Bronze Knight:?

"As for why I acted so exaggeratedly, of course it was to show weakness to certain people. Believe it or not, if I dare to kill the Rusted Bronze Knight instantly as soon as I enter the field, you will have to be caught and forced to fight the Blood Knight one-on-one tomorrow."

"Well... I don't have any questions to ask. But you still have to be careful in the next game. And you, Maria, if you were facing the Rusted Bronze Knight yesterday, what do you think your chances of winning would be?"

Then, Sofia turned her attention back to Maria.

Originally, Maria was going to say "About 10 percent", but then she suddenly remembered how Beichen was beaten so badly yesterday that he couldn't get down from the sky, and she immediately retracted her head.

"Probably, there is absolutely no chance of winning."

Zofia sighed and spoke.

"You are quite self-aware. If you go up there, you will really fall down lying down. So, you have to train hard now!"

It's like this every day. Maria comes in the morning, full of energy, and gropes her way home in the evening, so tired that she can hardly open her eyes.

During this period, Beichen and Zofia also participated in several competitions respectively. This time, Beichen did not face any weird opponents. They were all opponents who could not enter the main competition just by looking at their names.

However, Sofia encountered a tough opponent, the Flying Feather Knight that Beichen met in the first shooting competition.

He caused a lot of trouble to Zofia. Although Zofia won in the end, he was also covered in bruises, which made Maria feel very sad.

Finally, Maria finally succeeded. Although her current strength was just enough to beat Zofia who held the sword with her right hand, Zofia would certainly not be satisfied with just that.

But there is no time left. Considering the time left for rest and recuperation as well as the loss of points due to possible failure, participating in the qualifiers even a week earlier would be considered hasty.

There is no other choice but to set out early. I just hope I don’t run into an opponent that is too strong.

But in fact, Zofia still underestimated Maria's fighting ability, because Maria had never used her Originium skills during training.

In fact, Zofia had thought about this, but unfortunately she herself was not very good at Originium skills, and these combat skills were the only ones she could teach Maria.

Then as expected, Maria's first game was also targeted like Beichen.

What a great matching mechanism. (Convinced)

Maria's opponent in this game is a man named "Plastic Knight" called Sekiak, who belongs to the Knights of the Howling Guard.

It is the one where all members are equipped with crossbows, and there is a small monster B with super high defense and magic resistance that lasts for a period of time at the beginning of the game.

Fortunately, his attack power is relatively low, otherwise the fight would be even more torturous.

But that's just in-game performance.

In fact, no ordinary player would want to meet the knights of the Howling Guard in such an event, because here, the existence time of their shields is infinite, unless you completely destroy the shields in some way.

This may require a little skill and a little brute force.

That is to say, whether you win or lose the game, 90% of your time is spent thinking about how to break this tortoise shell shield that messes with your mentality.

As for the other 10%, don't forget the crossbow hidden behind the turtle shell. It will hit you twice if you are not careful.

But even so, this tortoise shell shield is still ridiculed by some people as a low-quality product. It is hard to imagine what kind of protective gear you guys will bring to the competition. Isn’t this tortoise shell alone annoying enough?

The Plastic Knight Sekiak is one of these turtle shell shooters, no, he is the best among the Howling Guard Knights, and his points ranking has long been at the forefront of the Knights.

Logically speaking, he no longer needs to participate in the next stage of the competition. He should rest and prepare for other competitions when the special championship starts.

Alas, as a worker, it was just the boss's request, and Serchiak had no choice but to give up his precious vacation to have such a fight with Maria.
