Linna looked out the car window at the scene outside.
This place reminded him somewhat of the military training camp from his previous life.
Many armed soldiers stood guard, many instructors walked around, many students chatted with each other, and some students bought things at the canteen.
Lin Nai asked, "Have all the contestants from other provinces arrived yet?"
Tang Hongshan nodded slightly: "Actually, most of the contestants from other provinces arrived in Yecheng a week ago and have already been here because they need to be assigned accommodations here. You are a local student from Yecheng, so you don't need to go through so much trouble. Your room has already been arranged, and we can just take you there directly."
Lin Nai raised an eyebrow: "Check-in? We still need to stay here?"
Tang Hongshan: "Yes."
Linnaeus: "So, our match will last for several days?"
Tang Hongshan: "That's right. Last year's competition lasted for more than a month, from the first round to the fifth round. The competition format is different every year, so the competition time is naturally very different as well."
Linna asked in confusion, "Will there be any special competition format?"
Tang Hongshan smiled and said, "I can only say that it is definitely completely different from the competition concept you have experienced before... Apart from the fifth round, which is a fixed traditional 1v1 arena match, the format and content of the first four rounds are not fixed and are kept strictly confidential."
"This is also to prevent some players from trying to take shortcuts by checking past competition records in advance."
Lin Nai nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.
Soon, the SUV stopped in front of a dormitory building.
Lin Yuxi said, "Once we get here, we won't be able to stay with you anymore. You'll have to rely on yourself from now on."
Then she took out a card: "Your room is 313. Good luck, Linnai! We'll be watching your amazing performance from the backstage monitoring room!"
"Yeah." Old Zhang leaned his elbow against the car window: "Don't go home on the first day. There are reporters filming the game live. If you lose too badly, our team will lose face."
Lin Nai took the card: "Then why don't you just prepare to throw a celebration banquet for me?"
"Wow, young man, you're quite confident."
"Hehe, once you get good grades, Old Zhang will take you to take a bath."
"Or you could be eliminated sooner, before our vacation ends, and come back. I'll take you to find some female college students to play games with. You know, I've recently met several pretty girls..."
Linnaeus: "..."
While everyone else was laughing and chattering, only Ye'er sat quietly in the back seat, looking at Lin Nai through the car window without saying a word.
Nightfall's eyes were like water as she gazed at Lin Nai. It was her unique gaze—quiet, yet captivating.
Linna also looked at her and met her gaze.
The girl then tugged at the hem of her clothes and said, "...Brother Lin Nai, good luck."
Lin Nai smiled and reached out to pat her head: "Okay."
......
Lin Nai walked up to the dormitory building with her hands in her shirt pockets.
We arrived at 313.
"drop"
Linnaeus used the card to open the door and went inside.
This is a completely independent single room, which looks like a standard hotel single room, with all the basic facilities and amenities.
As soon as Linnai turned on the light, a robot flew out and a panel lit up in front of him.
[Please drink the doping test beverage in front of you under the robot's supervision.]
The robot extended a mechanical hand, grabbed a beverage bottle shaped like a soda can, and held it in front of Linnaeus.
Lin Nai smiled and said, "The organizing committee of this competition is really thoughtful."
He took the can, opened it, tilted his head back, and drank it down.
[Warning: You have consumed a specially made doping test beverage from Yan Country]
[No abnormalities detected]
[Note: Some buff-type potions will become completely ineffective for you within 24 hours.]
The robot beeped twice, and after the red light turned green, it flew away.
He was the only one left in the room.
With nothing to do, Linnaeus opened the refrigerator in the room, took out two cans of drinks and a bag of hamburgers, ate them, and then lay down on the bed to rest.
After resting for about two hours, the doorbell rang.
Lin Nai went to open the door, and outside was a young male teacher he had never seen before, with several students of similar age to Lin Nai beside him. They all looked at Lin Nai with curiosity.
Male teacher: "Hello, you must be Linnai. I am the person in charge sent by the main campus of the Night's Watch in the capital. I am responsible for the gathering of the contestants sent by the Night's Watch branches in various regions. The contestants are about to gather. Please come with us to the main field."
Linnaeus: "Oh, okay."
Just then, two girls jumped out from beside the male teacher and exclaimed excitedly, "Linnai! That's great, you're participating too!"
Lin Nai looked and saw that it was Chu Mengyao and Xu Qiaolin, who were in the same class as him.
He had been absent from classes for more than half a month, so he had no idea which of his classmates had been sent to participate in the competition.
Chu Mengyao and Xu Qiaolin happily came to Lin Nai's side and chattered with her.
Both girls were very grateful to Linna for saving them during the last mission, and after that mission, they both became Linna's number one fans.
However, Lin Nai wasn't very good at dealing with girls; he would just respond with "uh-huh" to whatever they said.
However, Chu Mengyao and Xu Qiaolin didn't mind at all. The two girls happily followed behind Lin Nai, like his little followers.
