pinnacle throne

Not long after the final chapter of the main quest started, many players flocked to the Lost Lands map to watch the new upgrade quest. According to the guidance of the NPC, the players who received the quest will see that the battle in Tom Town, which is the front line, is tense at this time. , there are many creatures covered in black mist that sneaked into the northwest forest silently, but the strange thing is that these creatures did not invade Atlantis, which is the closest to the forest, but lurked in the northeast of Atlantis near the Lost Lands.The latest upgrade task is also related to these black mist monsters. Players need to assist the church to eliminate these evil monsters.

Shen Xiao and Ling Yexi also joined in the fun and took over the upgrade task. When they came to the upgrade area, there were indeed black mist creatures floating around, which were different from the original mobs in the Lost Land. The location is not fixed, and it often disappears in place, and then reappears in other places after a while. Shen Xiao and the two fought the monsters for a while, and found that these black mist creatures would devour the original mobs of the Lost Land. Being entangled by the black mist, he could not escape the fate of being assimilated into a black mist monster.

Reminiscent of the clues of the main mission so far, it seems that some conspiracy is about to surface, but no matter what guesses they have in their hearts, the main plot will continue according to the game's settings.Shen Xiao and Ling Yexi practiced the meeting level again, and then both threw their numbers to the power leveling.

Shen Xiao took off his helmet and was about to take a bath. Ling Yexi couldn't help showing a meaningful smile. At the end of the toss, the two still had a "mandarin duck bath". He gave up after a while.In the bathtub, Shen Xiao looked at the ceiling above his head in silence, while Ling Yexi kept looking at him from the side.

Occasionally, there would be a sound of water in the bathroom, but it soon became quiet again. It was rare for the two of them to get along in silence like this. In the end, it was Ling Yexi who broke the silence. He stretched out his hand in the water and hugged Shen Xiao in his arms. , the skin-to-skin contact brought a different heat than warm water, Ling Yexi rubbed Shen Xiao's head slightly with his chin: "Is something making you unhappy?"

Shen Xiao adjusted his position, and finally found a comfortable position to lie in Ling Yexi's arms: "No."

Ling Yexi didn't ask further, but just said softly: "Really?"

Shen Xiao then remained silent.

The two soaked for a while, and then rushed out of the bathroom before the water cooled down. Shen Xiao huddled under the quilt and slept all night, and played back the game in front of his notebook after getting up.After that, Shen Xiao trained Ling Yexi at home during the day, watched game videos, occasionally took a walk in the yard with Ling Yexi, went out for a big meal, and spent the night in the game, shutting himself in the copy, playing Blame hit no blue.

Although this kind of Shen Xiao is lazy every day as usual, but there is always something different... Ling Yexi is watching the screen behind Shen Xiao, although the assassin in the game still has extraordinary shots and coquettish moves, but, always Can feel the other person's absent-mindedness.

Two days until the final.

Ling Yexi looked at Shen Xiao, but in the end he didn't say anything. When Shen Xiao replayed the game video countless times, he also watched it with him. When Shen Xiao wanted to PK, he was a training partner. Until Thursday night, Shen Xiao Xiao specially called all five people to YY, and then notified one thing.

Napoleon was YYing on his mobile phone, even though the operation was inconvenient, he was still very excited: "Do you want to make an appointment for a team match with us? With whom? When??"

Shen Xiao: "Next week, the time can be discussed with the other party. They are all small teams."

"Small teams are also good! At least they are professional!" Napoleon said excitedly.

Shen Xiao thought for a while, and added: "The contact list was given to me by Final, there is one thing to pay attention to before making an appointment to fight."

"Pay attention to what?"

"The identities of both of us are kept secret for the time being. We only know that they are a small team, but we don't know which team they are. Similarly, they only know that we are a team that intends to show us through the player competition."

Jueming pondered for a while: "In other words, they will think that we are the kind of team that has strength but has not yet joined the team and wants to express themselves through competitions?"

"Yes." Shen Xiao replied.

"That's good." Musha said, "It saves unnecessary trouble."

"If you have no comments, please list your free time next week, and I will be responsible for contacting them."

After discussing with several people, the time was set on Tuesday night.Shen Xiao called the teams on the list on Friday morning, and finally made an appointment with one of them.

When Bashen hung up the phone, Yue Shang came over and said, "Who is it?"

Bashen curled his lips: "The team that is about to fight."

Yue Shang suddenly became energetic: "When?"

"Next Tuesday night."

"That's right, it just so happens that these brats in the team are lawless..."

Before Yuexia finished speaking, Tyrant God interrupted impatiently: "He is not a team."

Yuexia didn't react: "Huh?"

Bashen: "They just want to participate in the player contest."

Yuexia thought for a while before she realized: "You don't even have a team?"

Tyrant God: "Yes!"

Yuexia was speechless for a moment: "How can this kind of person have your mobile phone number?"

Bashen sneered: "Who else? Final. We are all small teams in this circle, and we know each other well. Such a team that suddenly appeared must have gone through the back door."

"Can you still go through the back door of Final? It sounds a bit silly..."

"No matter how much you talk about it, it can't hide the fact that it's not a team."

Yuexia sighed: "Then do you still fight? We are purely serving as a sparring partner,"

"Fight, why not fight? Since they don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, they should see clearly. Is it so easy for a strong team to enter? If you have high eyes but low hands, you will hit a wall!"

"But it's not like you don't know the bastards in the team. They won two games before and now they are a little bit disobedient. Can you let them win again?"

"What are you afraid of? The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Next time, find a stronger friendly match for them to go to the hospital. If you know that you are dreaming in one day, what big things can you do?"

"Will it hit you too hard?"

"This little bit of hardship can't bear the team's closure!"

"All right……"

After arranging these, Shen Xiao once again devoted himself to the fixed route of training Ling Yexi, watching game videos, and single-playing dungeons, but this night, Shen Xiao lay on the bed early.

When Ling Yexi was about to go to sleep, she saw Shen Xiao's eyes were open, and his eyes remained fixed on the ceiling for a long time.Sighing, he lifted the quilt and got in, came to Shen Xiao's side, and hugged him in his arms.Shen Xiao didn't respond, Ling Yexi leaned forward and kissed the other person's face, Shen Xiao finally blinked.

"Go to sleep, I still have to watch the game tomorrow." Ling Yexi said softly, closing her eyes first, "They will work hard." For your sake.

Feeling the breathing of the people around him, Shen Xiao finally moved slightly, and then closed his eyes.

The next day just dawned, the two of them opened their eyes and couldn't sleep anymore, they got up to wash up, and after eating breakfast, Ling Yexi dragged Shen Xiao down to the yard for a walk, walked back and forth three times, sweating all over , I returned to the air-conditioned room again, took a shower, and took a nap for a while, and the time was finally worn down to 08:30.

The game didn't start until 09:30, and the two went to the forum boredly. At this time, the forum was already occupied by posts discussing the game, and many people even stayed up all night nervously.Shen Xiao silently looked at many posts with the prefix "Lingyun must win, regain glory". Ling Yexi saw it, and hurriedly dragged the mouse to click on the next page. As a result, there were more similar posts on the second page. After a while, Shen Xiao said lightly: "It's okay, there's no need to turn the page."

The waiting time was quite excruciating. Finally, at nine o'clock, the live video on the official website was connected. Compared with other commentaries that only had game screens, the official website could also take close-up shots of the participating players. Shen Xiao opened the official website early, and Ling Ye Xi stood guard in front of the computer. At 09:30, the host appeared on time, and even through the screen, he could feel the warm atmosphere of the scene.

When the players from both sides entered the competition field, whether it was the game or the forum, they flicked their screens like crazy. The map drawn by both sides was the Colosseum. There was no obstruction in the center of the oval field, but there were four fans The archway can lead to the open-air auditorium, and the long rows of ancient stone chairs are arranged in an orderly manner, exuding a chilling atmosphere under the gloomy weather.

The characteristic of the map of the Colosseum is that every time period, an elite monster-level beast will appear in the field. Both parties need to avoid the attack of the beast while PKing. The beast appears for only 3 minutes. If the team succeeds in killing it first, the whole team can get buffs. On the contrary, after 3 minutes, the beast will disappear automatically.

Lingyun's starting lineup is still two berserkers, a mage, a gladiator, a priest, and a backup archer. Haotian's lineup has changed slightly compared with the usual one. The assassins in the team have become fighters. A Berserker, a Gladiator, a Summoner, a Mage, a Priest, and a backup archer.

The two sides did not have much contact when they were familiar with the venue, but every time they met face to face, there would be screams at the scene, and the commentary was also extremely excited, chattering endlessly. Shen Xiao followed Ling Yun's figure until the warm-up time was over. At the same time, they were cleared from the venue.

Everyone couldn't help holding their breath, waiting... There seemed to be only the sound of the beating heart, boom, boom, boom... A few seconds seemed to have passed a century, and the two teams refreshed in two corners of the map, Ling Yun In the west of the central booth of the Colosseum, Haotian is in the higher auditorium in the south.

There is only a low earth wall between the auditorium and the venue as a cover. Although Haotian is condescending and occupies a wide field of vision, it is difficult to conceal his whereabouts. The two sides found each other's position almost at the same time. Huxiao and the others maintained a posture of looking up After a while, he turned his angle of view and ran straight towards the nearest arch. Solo's team had no intention of escaping, but instead rushed forward.

Through the arch, the two sides are getting closer and closer. Many spectators have already stood up, screaming one after another, and the commentary is even more energetic, looking forward to the first collision between the two.

The battle was about to start, but Shen Xiao frowned slightly.
