"The pill you refined seems to be quite effective."
Linnai walked over and gently placed the monkey's blood sample on the table: "This is the monkey's blood sample. With this, we should be able to figure out what exactly is going on with those genetically modified humans created by the gene company."
Night slowly turned her chair around, tilted her head slightly to look at Lin Nai, and softly replied, "Hmm... as long as it works. The extraordinary materials used to refine that pill were all collected in the second alien realm of Ye City last time. I didn't expect them to come in handy this time..."
Lin Nai smiled faintly, then looked into the night's eyes, which were as pure as obsidian, and asked, "Tomorrow is the final. If that Lei Luo really wants to make a move, it should be tomorrow. So, are you nervous?"
The girl was silent for a moment, her fingers gently twisting together. After a long while, she whispered, "I'm not nervous, but I'm afraid of implicating you..."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Lin Nai raised her hand and placed it on the girl's head, ruffling her hair. Looking into her eyes, she said, "Just follow my arrangements tomorrow."
Night: "...Lei Luo is a demonic descendant at the ninth level of the Myriad Manifestations realm, unlike any enemy you've encountered before. He is also a weapon of war cultivated by the Black Angel civilization, and his combat power may be far greater than you imagine. It's not just about his Myriad Manifestations level strength; he also carries many of the Black Angel civilization's latest technological equipment..."
“I know,” Linnaeus said. “I definitely couldn’t handle him on my own, but you’re here for me.”
Nightfall blushed slightly and said, "He used to be my instructor, but... I can't beat him either."
"It's alright." Lin Nai seemed quite relaxed. "I'll help you take him down."
Night pursed her lips and said nothing more.
"By the way, have you made the kind of ammunition I asked you to develop?" Linna asked.
"Hmm!" Upon hearing this, the girl immediately picked up two very unusual sniper rifle bullets from the lab table in front of her. This was the thing she had been working on and rushing to finish: "This kind of ammunition can be used with your level 5 sniper rifle... but due to time constraints, I can only make two rounds..."
"It's alright," Linna said. "Two shots are enough."
......
The next day.
10 a.m.
After having breakfast, all eight official players who advanced to the quarterfinals came to the lobby on the first floor under the guidance of the referees to undergo their final physical examinations before preparing for the quarterfinals this morning.
"Hey, have you guys heard?" Meng Feifei whispered, "It seems like the rules for today's competition have suddenly changed!"
Truman turned to look at him: "What rules?"
"Originally, spectators were supposed to be allowed to watch the final today," Meng Feifei said. "But today, a sudden notice was issued saying that due to unforeseen circumstances at some venues, there were safety hazards, and all spectators were turned away. Now, many spectators who traveled a long way to Yecheng to watch the game are venting their frustrations online..."
"Oh? I saw that on my phone too," Lin Yuxi immediately interjected. "It even made the headlines on Weibo!"
Old Zhang crossed his arms and said, "But thinking about it, I know that safety concerns are definitely just an excuse, right?"
“Yes.” Meng Feifei shrugged. “What safety hazards could there be here? Even the competitions are fought in a virtual reality environment.”
Ah Guang, Dingzi, and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Hua Lingze pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "It is indeed a bit unusual. In previous years, the finals should have the largest audience and be the most watched. Moreover, there are two Apostle contestants in this year's finals. Normally, unless there is some unavoidable situation, they would not give up making money from this wave."
"Yeah, yeah." Meng Feifei looked left and right. "But what kind of unavoidable situation do you think it could be? Sigh... it's such a pity. They finally made it to the quarterfinals, and there wasn't even a cheer from the audience..."
"I think you should just ignore all this." Truman wiped his glasses with a cloth and said, "You're the first one to go on today, facing Shirai Ryo from Zecheng High School. You should think about your own match instead."
"Ugh, what are you still thinking about?" Meng Feifei pouted. "I already said, one word—just kidding! Anyway, don't get your hopes up."
Lin Yuxi, who was standing next to her, said bluntly, "Actually, we never had any hope for you."
Meng Feifei: "......"
Linna leaned against the wall, pretending to doze off, and didn't say a word.
He looked like he was dozing off.
But in reality, a system panel that others couldn't see was open in front of him.
We've been making final preparations...
After a while, a female referee came over to take attendance. After confirming that all eight contestants were present, the referee announced the start of the competition.
"The first match of the quarterfinals, Zecheng High School, Bai Liao vs. Night Watchman Academy, Meng Feifei."
"Please bring the contestants to the ring."
Upon hearing the broadcast, Meng Feifei stood up, stretched her wrists, and said helplessly, "Sigh, it seems I can only compete in a venue without any audience. What a rare opportunity to show my face..." While complaining, she carried her sniper rifle and walked onto the stage.
His opponent, Bai Liao, was already standing on the ring.
Bai Liao held a small dagger in his hand and tossed it into the air repeatedly.
His expression showed that he didn't take Meng Feifei seriously at all.
Meng Feifei stood opposite Bai Liao, a cold smile suddenly flashing in her eyes.
White Fang...
Watch me get my revenge for last time!
"If there are no problems, we can begin selecting the scene map." The female referee made a final confirmation to the two contestants.
Meng Feifei nodded: "No problem."
Bai Liao curled his lip: "Let's get started already."
"Okay." The female referee gestured.
Soon, the two selected a random scene: nighttime, an empty city.
Neither of them wanted to change the scene.
"Buzz..."
The array of light pillars in the illusion lit up, enveloping the two contestants.
Soon, the two entered the illusionary scene.
