In the morning, Harvey was having dinner when a servant came running to report: "Master Harvey, Master Mig has arrived. He is waiting for you in the living room."
Harvey finished his meal in a hurry and walked towards the reception room, thinking: This old guy came to see me so early in the morning, it must be up to no good.
In the reception room, Miguel paced back and forth, waiting impatiently.
When Harvey saw Miguel, he greeted him warmly: "I'm sorry for not welcoming you, my distinguished guest. Why didn't you say hello in advance?"
Miguel said coldly: "Greetings in advance, will you meet me?" He winked at Harvey.
Harvey immediately understood and dismissed the servants and guards, leaving only the two of them in the living room.
Miguel knew that he was in Harvey's territory. He wanted to get angry, but he suppressed his anger and said, "What's the matter? You haven't dealt with any of Luo Tian and Rubin's two sons!"
Harvey said helplessly: "I tried my best, but the poker hackers you sent were almost wiped out."
Miguel took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Xavi told Miguel about his deployment in the knockout round and promised to defeat Luo Tian in the game.
After hearing this, Miguel dusted off his cigarette ash and said calmly, "If you fail again, I can't guarantee that you will get the two towns I promised you."
Harvey smiled apologetically and said, "I'll do it myself this time, no problem."
Miguel wiped his eye circles and said worriedly, "Rob came to me yesterday to discuss the alliance with Jupiter City. His words implied that he was very satisfied with Luo Tian's performance in the auditions and wanted to give him more experience. This is not a good sign." As soon as he finished speaking, he started coughing.
Harvey handed Miguel a cup of tea and said, "Drink some tea to moisten your throat. Don't worry too much. No matter how powerful Luo Tian is, I don't believe he can hinder our cause. Don't forget, our real opponents are Rob and Rubin."
Miguel took a sip of the tea and said, "Of course I understand. Although we have the support of other Star Cities, I think we should win over some more people just in case. This is also the reason why I came to you today."
"What are your plans?" Harvey asked.
Miguel said, "If we can get Martha and Roger's support, it will be easy to take out Rob and Rubin."
Harvey shook his head. "Isn't this too difficult? Think about it. Roger is the eldest son and has a high chance of inheriting the throne. He is also Martha's son-in-law. The two of them are in solidarity. He still wants to monopolize power. Why should he support us?"
Miguel said, "Of course I understand this, but if Roger knew that Robert would pass the throne to Luo Tian, what would he think? And what would Martha think?"
Harvey's eyes lit up immediately: "It's really high. What do you want me to do?"
Miguel said, "I will talk to Martha. Roger is now fully committed to the competition, so this is where you should exert your strength. I just heard the group arrangement for the elimination round, so we will follow it. On the one hand, we will do our best to attack Luo Tian and Rubin's son and destroy their power. On the other hand, you should find time to talk to Roger and win him over to our side. Do you understand?"
Harvey said confidently, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Before leaving, Miguel told Harvey, "Don't play tricks on me. We are on the same boat. We will rise and fall together. Now, I have to go find Martha. Keep in touch if you have any news."
Luo Tian and Gao Shan were busy all night, and when they woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Lan Yue brought a delicious lunch to the room. Luo Tian saw Fenmao and Gaoshan eating the food with big mouthfuls. He couldn't help feeling hungry too, so he started eating too.
Suddenly, Luo Tian remembered an important event, and quickly put down his cutlery, logged into Kaiyuan, and prepared to go to the knockout group stage according to the coordinates published in the competition notice.
At this time, the fourteen contestants who advanced to the knockout round were already in place, except for the two princes Luo Tian and Roger.
Harvey sat in the middle of the referee's seat. Seeing that the time was up, he started the system to draw lots for the groups.
Harry quickly reminded his father in his ear: "Wait a little longer, Prince Luo Tian hasn't arrived yet."
Harvey knew that Prince Roger had asked for leave, so he could use Luo Tian's absence to quickly divide the groups. He pretended not to hear and announced, "The time is up, the system starts the lottery."
The qualified contestants stand in the area opposite the referee's seat. There is an ice platform under each person's feet. Colorful lights will appear in the ice platform when the lottery is being drawn. The lottery will stop after five seconds and the ice platform will display the number drawn by the contestant.
After the numbers were confirmed, Harvey announced: "We are now going to carry out the system random grouping."
Sixteen numbers began to scroll on the big screen and Harvey shouted, "Stop."
The sixteen numbers were automatically divided into eight groups. At this time, the ice platform began to move according to the groups that had been divided. The players quickly lined up in two rows, and the knockout matchups were finally determined.
At this time, Luo Tiancai entered the venue. He heard Harvey loudly announce: "Dear contestants, the elimination round grouping has been completed. The system has recorded the grouping situation. The competition time is set at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. The venue will be notified to everyone later. Please participate on time."
Harry walked up to Luo Tian and said, "Prince, I'm sorry, the groups have been divided. In fact, before the groups were divided, I reminded your father that I wanted to wait until you came before dividing them." He lowered his head embarrassedly.
Luo Tian patted Harry on the shoulder and consoled him, "I am late. Your father did nothing wrong. You don't have to blame yourself. It is randomly assigned by the system anyway. If you come earlier, the result may still be the same. It's just right that I don't have to wait and can see the result directly."
