In the year 1245 of the Star Calendar, the S-level mecha athlete [sink] shone brightly, setting numerous records. Despite his immense glory, he announced his retirement after achieving the grand sl...

Chapter 238
When the smart electronic sound sounded, all live broadcast rooms shared the blind selection interface of the locked live broadcast perspective. Only four options appeared in the special blind selection interface. There was no detailed background information description in the options, and even the terrain area was vague. The only information provided was the most basic information, such as pollution value fluctuations, magnetic field interference, terrain complexity, etc.
The digital interface disrupted some of the teams' original arrangements, and the faces of the mecha coaches who gathered together changed to varying degrees.
On the Dawn Galaxy side, in order to make it easier for Dawn netizens to see the situation of the 8 teams at the first time, a host on the Star Network specially created an 8-perspective live broadcast interface. Many netizens gathered in the full-perspective live broadcast room. Even netizens who had watched the Star Domain Tournament were confused by the blind selection at the opening stage of this year's Star Domain Tournament.
"The difficulty has increased. Generally speaking, there is not much difference between blindly selecting a jump location at the beginning and randomly jumping to a contaminated area."
The commentator in the live broadcast room continued, "But with four regions for blind selection, and an unknown competition system, there is a high possibility that the blind selection will be the same as the Shura field, and the density of teams will also increase."
[It’s difficult, there are 4 choices, and they will definitely collide. 】
[No way, then we have 8 Sugons, and in the best case, there are 2 in each region on average? 】
[You are stupid. There is no such thing as equal distribution. The worst thing is that they will collide with each other. 】
There are only four areas to choose from on the map, with a total of 52 teams. If the quota is full, each area will be divided into 13 teams.
The coaches of the major bases in the Dawn Galaxy anticipated that the first half of the Star Domain Tournament might be divided into different regions to quickly reduce the number of teams in the first half. When they held the original combat meeting, they also tried their best to prevent the Dawn Galaxy team from encountering friction at the beginning based on the terrain conditions inside the contaminated area... But now it has become a four-region selection based on data, and they can't judge which terrain each region represents.
"It's difficult." Jiang Simiao: "Not only do you have to guess what you will choose, but you also have to guess what the strong teams might choose."
The best strategy is to avoid strong teams at the beginning, understand the competition system and formulate strategies, and then fight for rankings.
The blind selection operation of the Star Domain Tournament basically disrupted the initial arrangements of all teams. Not only the Dawn Galaxy, but also the galaxies with multiple teams participating were not sure whether they would collide with the teams of their own galaxies.
While everyone was paying attention to the blind selection stage, the official intelligent electronic sound was already counting down to the selection.
The mecha pilots in the jump point had no way to communicate with the outside world and could only judge the terrain area based on data and make a choice quickly.
"How do we choose in the blind audition?" As the captain, Huo Yan has the right to choose.
You should focus on the pollution value and the complexity of the terrain, and then choose the one with the highest comprehensive value. "Choose C."
The other members of KID had no objection. Huo Yan quickly chose C after Ying Chenlin finished speaking.
The surrounding teams made their choices one after another. In less than ten seconds, the regional divisions of the 52 teams were presented to everyone.
Before the audience who were watching the selection could figure out what was going on, the 52 teams had already made their choices quickly and listed the percentage of teams from each region according to the rankings. The top four teams in previous Star Domain Championships appeared in the list, ranking at the top of the four groups: A.Shendun, B.jiazi, C.zuoy, and C.you.
[Oh my god!] A few of the top four players were staggered, that’s amazing, they are indeed old rivals, they have studied them thoroughly enough, they were able to choose them. 】
[Of course. They have played in the Star Domain Tournament and the Star Alliance Tournament. They are the ones who conduct the most detailed research every year. But it is amazing that they are completely staggered. 】
[Group D does not have any top four teams, so it is the easiest. 】
Group C is the most difficult group, with two top four teams at the top. The faces of the teams in Group C in the rest area in the venue all looked a little solemn.
On the other side, in the rest area of Team SHIELD, after looking at the four-region grouping diagram, the head coach of SHIELD suddenly said, "The Dawn Four are staggered."
In the Dawn Galaxy's general perspective live broadcast room, the fans' burning of incense and praying to Buddha finally took effect.
There are eight teams, Group A is Swift, Group B is YDS, Group C is KID, Group D is Black Crow, and the remaining eight teams have two teams in Group D that will be in the same group as the Black Crow, and the others are evenly divided.
[We in Group C had a lot of collisions, but did you notice... our top four were staggered. 】
[Oh shit, it’s true. Did they discuss this beforehand? 】
[How can we discuss it? These are all data-based choices, and it’s hard to say for sure even if we discuss it in advance. 】
In the rest area, Brother Zhang caught a glimpse of his coaching team's analysis. As expected, KID chose the one with the highest combined terrain and pollution value... Isn't this hard to guess?
Everyone knows that you KIDs go to the most expensive and trouble-making places. YDS will not choose areas with complex terrain, and Black Crow will choose areas suitable for long-range combat. All these times of cooperation have not been in vain.
After looking through all the groups, Head Coach Jifeng frowned and said, "Group C, where KID is, is going to be difficult."
Brother Zhang: "What kind of luck is this KID? Both of the top four are in C."
It was a good thing that the four teams of Dawn didn't meet in the semi-finals, but KID couldn't relax.
Gu Xiaotian glanced at Group C where his family was and asked cautiously, "Brother Jiang, is our group okay?"
"Don't be nervous." Jiang Simiao kept his eyes on the grouping situation and continued, "We are just divided into Area C. The competition rules have not been announced yet. Maybe they will use some kind of point-grabbing system. The terrain here is complicated, so just be a little sneaky and avoid the strong teams--"
Before he could finish his words, the jump system in the contaminated area of Asta was officially activated.
With the naked eye, everyone saw from the bird's-eye view of the Asta contaminated area that a faint red light curtain quickly emerged in the Asta area with a dozen base stations as connection points. These light curtains were connected together, completely dividing Asta into four areas.
In the visualized virtual data, the four-point logo ABCD emerges after the four areas are divided.
The complex and grand terrain of the special area in the field of vision also came into everyone's sight. Once the light curtain was formed, the mechas selected in different areas were evenly jumped to the edge of the area.
As soon as the KID team's jump coordinates were refreshed, six red and white mechas appeared in a special area with flying yellow sand. Yellow sand was raging in the wilderness, the strange sandstone landform was undulating, the mechanical buildings were looming, and they were strangely integrated with the sandstone. In the bottomless mechanical sand pit, there was a creaking sound as some kind of structure was operating...
In the sand pit, an unbalanced special mining machine was suspended, and a running conveyor belt went deep into the ground from the sandstone surface. Everywhere you looked, there were chaotic mining machines floating, and obstacles filled the field of vision. In these fields of vision, scattered pollutants could be vaguely seen running among the sandstones or in the mines. Noticing the movements of the mechas high up, everyone looked up.
Before they recovered from the shock of the scene, the thrusters on the mechas gave an imbalance warning. Several mechas suddenly dropped from the sky. Before they were about to fall into the bottomless sand pit, the mecha masters reacted quickly and made an emergency landing on the sandstone. Huo Yan paused and asked, "Where is this place?"
You Su quickly recognized the location: "Area C, Abandoned Fortress Mining Site."
The Asta Contaminated Zone is a mechanical planet that was once used as a fringe fortress.
The area C they chose is the special mining site of the abandoned fortress. This place is located inside the Yasta sandstone area and is the only unbalanced area in the entire Yasta pollution area.
While Ying Chenlin was still determining the radar's position, the Star Domain Tournament's rulebook popped up at this moment—
"Oh my god, a points system!" Ji Qingfeng saw the words in the rules at a glance.
Lin Yao: "Isn't it fighting to earn points?"
[Welcome to the [Asta] contaminated area, the first star field, the star field competition [initial] group C, has been loaded with the mecha team 13/13, mecha 78/78]
[The game mode of this game is [Special Points Game], and the initial game [Mecha Points·12 Days] is now underway.] ]
[Special Points Competition for 30 Days: All mechas enter one of the A/B/C/D areas of the Asta Contaminated Zone and compete with other teams in the same area in a 12-day (288-hour) mecha elimination competition. Teams can eliminate each other, and eliminated mechas are eliminated. The winning team accumulates 1 mecha point. The top 2 teams with the cumulative 12-day record can advance, and all other teams are eliminated. ]
[Please note: Special rules have been added to this game. Every 12 hours, the system will expose the coordinates of a random type of mecha in the team (except for hidden ones). The results of this game will not be reset. ]
"It's not a simple points system." Ying Chenlin's eyes fell on the rule book.
Below the rule book, the record table of the region appeared. All the teams that entered the competition area saw their opponents in the same region at this time. Ji Qingfeng scanned the team list and said, "The simpler, the more ruthless!"
In the live broadcast room from KID's perspective, fans were stunned when they saw this competition system. It adopted a simple mecha point system, but the difficulty was that the system would randomly expose the position. Such a competition system was completely a forced battle system, forcing all mecha divisions to fight. The higher the mecha points obtained, the higher the ranking.
[Did our Dawning make the difficulty of the Galaxies Tournament too high this year? I suddenly feel that this competition system is quite acceptable. 】
[Dawn has been increasing the difficulty of the Galaxy Tournament this year to match the Star Domain Tournament and Star Alliance Tournament. Chairman Li has taken this seriously. 】
What’s good about this competition system? You can't compare this competition system with the contaminated area of the Dawn Galaxy. This place is Asta! Besides, the difficulty of opponents also increases. 】
"This competition system is not easy to play. The difficulty of the regional environment is determined when the region is selected. In addition, the opponents are not evenly distributed according to their strength, which will lead to uneven battles in the four regions. The Star Domain Tournament is a one-on-one competition. It will not give all teams a chance to fish in troubled waters. If you want to win, you can only win all the way up from the initial round, and then use points to determine the ranking..."
The commentator in the Shuguang live broadcast room said: "The blind pick is a simple and violent forced battle system. This system is fine for strong teams, but it is a very cruel elimination match for weak teams. If you don't make it into the top two, you can't enter the second half of the game. And if you don't make it into the top 10 in the record ranking, you won't even have a place in the Star Alliance Tournament."
[Isn’t the level of Shura too terrifying?] The other three teams still have the strength to fight, Group C is the death group. 】
[Group C is the most difficult, with two semi-finalists there. What kind of luck is KID? They are in the death group. 】
Generally speaking, areas with difficult terrain and high pollution values will not be the preferred targets of most teams.
This has led to many teams avoiding Group C. However, each region has a quota, and teams that do not have time to select other regions will be forced into Group C.
[KIDs were not thrown in, they chose themselves. 】
[It’s understandable that they would actively choose an area, but who would have thought that two of the top four would choose a high-difficulty area! 】
[…We are most likely to get the first place with a high ranking and enter the death group. What bad luck. 】
[Their luck has always been mysterious, and I don’t understand it. 】
The pollution value and terrain complexity of Group C are higher than those of other areas, and the difficulty lies in the fact that there are not many weak teams gathered here. Among the eight teams of Dawn, only KID had the misfortune to enter this Shura Field Group.
【etc? Why did KID make an emergency landing? 】
They didn’t fly anymore. 】
[Didn’t you see the map information of Asta? This place is unbalanced! 】
In the official live broadcast room of the Star Domain Tournament, everyone was focused on the abandoned mining site.
All terrains in the four major areas are difficult, and the most difficult place on the map is the abandoned sandstone mine.
"Many people are not familiar with the Sandstone Abandoned Mine area. Let me explain it to you." In the live broadcast room, the official commentator of the First Star Domain was responsible for explaining the map before the game. "We can see the distribution of four areas in the field through the perspective. Among them, the most difficult area of the map is the Abandoned Mine. The reason why it is called the most difficult area is that most areas in Area C are unbalanced areas."
The Yasta contaminated area has a 200-year history, and a lot of modern technology is still preserved in this place.
In order to resist the invasion of flying pollutants, the mining site once activated a special gravity system in the sandstone area. All flying objects entering the area, including mechas, would be affected by the artificial magnetic field as soon as they entered the area and would directly enter an unbalanced state. \
You can fly in normal sandstone areas, but all the mining areas with sandstone mechanical buildings are unbalanced areas. There are a total of 5 mining areas in the entire C area. 5 of the 13 teams jumped to the vicinity of the mining areas and were constrained by the unbalanced areas from the beginning.
"In the unbalanced state, most places in the area are no-fly zones." The official explanation said: "The mecha's thrusters cannot achieve high-altitude flight, which is equivalent to a no-fly zone, and the unbalanced system can resist some superpowers, and the power of flying and speed-increasing weapons will be weakened."
[No-fly zone?] ? 】
[This group is too Shura, the team is quite strong, and the selected position is also the most difficult? ? ? 】
The netizens of Dawn Galaxy were immersed in the joy that their top four teams did not have to fight in advance, and the next second they saw this almost terrible competition system. At first glance, the overall difficulty level of the four areas is similar. The areas with low terrain difficulty are small in scope and have a high probability of battles. The maps with high difficulty are large, but there are various comprehensive and complex maps.
"This competition system is difficult." Li Jingyan sat on the seat provided for the chairmen of the 15 galaxies on the official podium. When he saw such an area and terrain, his brows were tightly furrowed. Although the overall difficulty was similar, the opponent group C was the most difficult.
2 qualifying spots means that if KID wants to win, he must rank higher than you and zuoy, the top four players in the Star Domain Tournament.
[It's okay, KID's luck is very mysterious, it's not necessarily the worst...]
[Yes, yes, the map is large, and you can hide and collect information. 】
[Everyone, don't worry. Think about it, KID can survive on Keze Floating Island for several days! 】
Before the discussion in the Shuguang live broadcast room was finished, it was discovered that after all the teams received the rule books, the first round of coordinates actually appeared on the radar map. The coordinates of the gunners and mechas of the 13 teams appeared in the abandoned mining field of Group C. The ID of the mecha division was clearly marked on the coordinates. Not to mention hiding it, the main output position of the gunners and mechas was directly exposed at the beginning!
[Brothers, I withdraw my preface. 】
[Isn’t it 12 hours? Exposed now? ? ? 】
[I just looked at the ranking of Group C. We didn’t participate last season, so KID is ranked last by default (whispering)]
What is the competition system of the Mecha Points Competition? A competition system in which the more kills you get, the better your performance.
What is the easiest way to get kills in the same area? Of course, the weakest player in the field should be picked and attacked.
Jiang Simiao and Gu Xiaotian in the rest area broke out in sweat when they saw this.
Gu Xiaotian: "Brother Jiang, are we starting with a cannon fodder scenario?"
Jiang Simiao: “…”
Do you have to be so cruel? In a mecha points competition, he exposed his position at the beginning. Doesn't this tell everyone that KID is here, come and kill him?
The coordinates were exposed for 10 seconds. During these 10 seconds, the five teams closest to KID among the 13 teams changed direction almost before the coordinates disappeared, and quickly rushed towards KID's location.
The six KID mechas also took action as soon as they saw the coordinate information. When everyone thought that they would quickly leave the unbalanced area and start flying, they not only did not leave, but jumped into the mining site in one fell swoop, directly entered the center of the unbalanced area, and gave up flying.
There is no flying function, the mecha moves by running
Jump, KID's six mechas jumped into the mine and jumped onto the conveyor belt. Several mechas moved quickly down the conveyor belt and entered the central area of the mining site.
As a modern mining site, the floor heights of the mechanical buildings in this area retain the adaptability of mechas.
After KID and his companions entered this area, they found that the tall mechas could move freely in this area except that they could not fly.
As soon as he jumped into the mine, Ying Chenlin quickly observed all the scenes, compared them with the information he had browsed in his memory, and immediately determined that they were in the third mine.
The constantly running conveyor belts and the unbalanced suspended mining machines block the long-range vision. There are a large number of mechanical passages leading to the interior of the mining site on the walls of the huge mine. This place retains a highly intelligent assembly line work procedure. A large amount of ore is transported out from deep underground. Part of it is sent to large processing plants inside the pit wall through conveyor belts, and the other part is suspended in the mine due to the unbalanced gravity system that is out of control.
The entire intelligent program is operated by large machinery, and it is very easy for the mecha to enter and exit.
Ying Chenlin followed a conveyor belt into the pit wall and saw a spacious machinery factory. The internal operating system was partially stopped, and the mining machines that had not been processed were sent out again via the conveyor belt, becoming obstacles to the movement of various mechas.
Ji Qingfeng looked up at the focusing platform high up and said, "With this level of intelligence, can light operate? How did it become a polluted area in the first place?"
"Because of the magnetic field disorder and the high pollution outbreak, the gravity system here has been obviously affected." After assessing the situation, Ying Chenlin took his teammates to hide in the wall of the mine pit, raised his eyes and looked up at the top of the mine pit, "We have to go separately."
"The five mines in the mining field are connected underground. Just at the last second when the radar disappeared, I noticed that several mechas were heading towards us." Lu Xi leaned against a mine wall, "They might be coming towards us."
Ji Qingfeng: "If you have the guts, fight us 1-on-1. It's nothing to have several teams fighting against one of our teams."
When KID's six mechas entered the conveyor belt pit of the mine, the pollutants moving in the mine seemed to have noticed these uninvited foreign guests. Pairs of greedy eyes fixed on the mechas on the pit wall and moved towards KID's position from different directions.
Lin Yao spotted the moving pollutants at a glance and prepared to draw his weapon: "Oh, it seems to be the local sandstone rats of Asta. They run pretty fast, but their reactions seem a bit slow."
Ying Chenlin shifted his sight from the height, compared the coordinates on the radar with the local map of Asta, and quickly compiled a simple map. When he saw the map, he moved his sight downwards and saw the mechas gradually gathering. "The location of the third mine is good... We have to find a way to stay here."
If you want to stay here, you have to get rid of the pollutants at the bottom first.
They are sensitive to pollutants. If they stay here for a long time, they will receive a lot of attention from the pollutants.
No matter how tightly it is hidden, it will be bad if the location is exposed by pollutants.
"We have to separate them. They are too crowded to be a target." You Su glanced at the bottom. "More and more are coming."
"Separate?" Lu Xi said, "Although the thrusters are affected, they can still be driven."
"The mine is operating normally, and there is energy running inside." Ying Chenlin quickly drew a few locations on the map, "Turn off the engine completely, stay close to the operating machines, and take the ore with you, so that you won't be discovered by pollutants."
The pollutants here don't react that quickly. The fact that they only attack at this time after sinking means that they will be affected by the mining system operating here.
"Is there a way?" Huo Yan asked.
Ying Chenlin thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea that we can try."
After listening to this, KID and the others quickly turned on their thrusters and quickly dispersed to the positions that Ying Chenlin had mentioned. When the dispersed mechas turned on their thrusters and the conveyor belts were running, they attracted the attention of the moving pollutants, and all the pollutants quickly dispersed.
From KID's live broadcast perspective, after hearing KID's terrible start, more and more netizens gathered around to watch. They saw several teams quickly approaching the third mine pit, and all netizens became nervous. The next second, they saw KID disperse and hide on the high mine pit wall.
"KID is smart, hiding in the mine. If a strong team wants to go down, they will have to consider an ambush."
The commentator in the live broadcast room said: "They are trying to turn the tables."
[Is the most dangerous place the safest place?] 】
[…Why do I feel that KID stayed in this position simply because there are too many pollutants in this mine? 】
[There are many places to hide in this place. I have watched so many KID games that I already understand. 】
[I now understand what the above person said. Did KID choose area C because there are more pollutants in area C? 】
[You will soon see KID’s stingy character. 】
New fans? As for the B-level sandstone rat next to qingf, it can live for a maximum of 15 seconds. If it lives longer than 15 seconds, I will never be able to get KID materials in my lifetime. 】
Netizens watched as several of KID's mechas were scattered on the walls of the mine. When a pollutant passed by KID's hidden mecha qingf, everyone thought KID was going to get rid of the pollutant, but the red and white mecha stopped motionless on the mine wall, shut down its energy source and shut down, without even looking at the passing pollutant.
KID fans watched the pollutant pass by and typed a series of question marks in the live broadcast room.
From KID's perspective, the host was stunned for a moment, along with many netizens.
【? ? ? ? 】
[Is this qingf himself?] 】
[Wait, did I enter the wrong live broadcast room? 】
[Brothers, am I seeing things? 】
[That pollutant actually passed by KID alive...? 】
