Chapter 167: Update 1 + Update 2: Players discovered a monster spawner!!
These guys don't seem normal.
No, that's definitely not normal!
Who can casually say something like skeleton, ghost, bone dragon, stone demon, lava crab?
Moreover, it is completely regarded as common sense!!
Looking at the group of people in front of him who were ordering dishes, he didn't even think it was strange, but rather felt strangely excited.
"You don't understand—how handsome and dashing the head coach was to drive such a fantasy creature to attack. The scene of him controlling the bone dragon and chasing us around with howling sounds is still vivid in my mind—"
"Yeah, yeah. Looking back, with the other eliminated groups still around, it was both tough and fulfilling. Every day I'd just fall asleep..."
"—What?! You guys can still sleep?!"
Suddenly, thunder roared from the sky. The sound was not from the elimination group reminiscing about the past. Everyone looked over at the sound.
It turned out to be a group of winners with shocked and somewhat unbelievable expressions!
Eh?
Is there something wrong with the focus of these guys?
The overseas expedition team looked at them with a hard time saying anything. Shouldn't the focus be on those strange creatures and these guys who were completely abused like masochists?
Why is the point that they can still sleep?!
God knows - when the winners of one round heard that the eliminated groups still had sleep and could even fall asleep immediately, they felt so shocked that they were even a little jealous!
"No - how can you, why can you sleep?! It's not fair!! I don't accept it - we don't accept it wahhhhhhh!!!"
First round elimination group:?
What's wrong with these guys?
If people don't sleep, they will die. How can anyone not sleep?
"——Great! Congratulations everyone on coming to the training ground for the second round winners' group. Here, everyone will receive brand new training!"
Saito Shi smiled and clapped his hands in an impassioned tone.
"Everyone, rest assured. Anyone with experience knows this—here, the Winners' Group training will never result in fatalities!"
The elimination group that had successfully advanced in the stadium ranking match were all shocked when they heard this.
——No one will be killed!
Damn it, they just knew that these guys in the winners group of the first round were definitely secretly having a good time when they were not around!
Thinking back to those days, they wondered what life was like in the underground mines. They were chased by slimes, chased by ghosts, and attacked by skeletons. There were also bats and stone demons...
Recalling the past, a sigh,
However - all that is now in the past. Now, they have come out from underground and successfully walked onto the surface, becoming part of the second round winner group!
Their good day is coming!
With excited hearts and trembling hands, Kintaro Toyama, Takeshi Momoshiro, Kamio and others who were a little bit unable to contain themselves were already eager to try, and they wanted to rush forward and fight for three hundred rounds.
Even Genichirō Sanada, who never showed his emotions, showed a slight change in his expression.
Almost all the members who successfully advanced to the elimination round pricked up their ears, expecting to hear from their coach Saito Nakagami the wonderful future they longed for and anticipated.
The desire to win took over, causing everyone to completely ignore the silence and bitter expressions of the winners' group standing nearby.
Yukimura Seiichi looked at his teammate who had advanced from the first elimination group with an expression of anticipation and excitement, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Liu slowly reached out and pressed his shoulder. Yukimura turned around and looked at everyone, then shook his head silently.
To break their beautiful fantasy at this time is tantamount to destroying the spiritual pillar that has sustained them for so long.
This kind of bad guy...let the U17 coaching staff do it,
After all, they have experience.
Not only Rikkai University, but also Shitenhoji, Hyotei, Seigaku, and other schools in the first round of the winner group, and even U17 members,
Looking at the crowd whose faces were almost filled with expressions of anticipation, joy, and anticipation, I felt a little reluctant.
The other side of the meaning of 'no one will be killed' is... as long as no one is killed, it can be built in any way!
The language skills of the U17 coaches have been fully revealed. The winners of the first round will never be fooled again.
Whether it was watching my teammates who had been promoted to the elimination group or myself who was about to face another training session with the U17 winners group, I felt that the future was completely bleak.
Seeing the polarization of emotions, those who need encouragement are encouraged, and those who cannot be encouraged are also old hands.
The U17 coaching team, led by Saito Shi, began planning the daily training content for the winners' group.
"So starting today, everyone will be training. The training content is simple. We will continue with yesterday's court scrimmage and return ten balls simultaneously."
Saito Shi smiled gently, "Of course, don't worry, the difficulty won't always be this low. It's just that today is the first day, so we give the newly promoted students some time to adapt."
"—Starting tomorrow, we'll be training to return eleven balls simultaneously. Everyone, please look forward to it~"
At first I was listening carefully, but as I listened I gradually realized something was wrong.
The members of the first round of elimination group and the members of the overseas expedition group who returned slowly looked at each other to confirm that there was nothing wrong with their ears and that they had not heard it wrongly.
Oh, so much... Do I have to return ten balls at the same time in a big free-for-all on the first day?
If I remember correctly, the U17 training camp base is currently using... the bomb ball, right?
Hitting back ten of these bomb balls at the same time...you'll definitely be blasted to pieces!!
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, everyone remembered the winners group from the previous round.
No matter what, the reactions of these guys are the most relevant reference now...
——No! Why are they all paler than the last?!
It wasn't just pale anymore, it looked like his soul was about to be torn apart and passed away!!!
"——Cheer up, you guys! This is nothing—it's just ten balls!?"
Toyama Kintaro spoke reflexively, not realizing the seriousness of the problem.
"Even if there are eleven or twelve of them—it's totally fine!!"
"No no no—shut up, Xiao Jin!!"
Shiraishi Kuranosuke almost rushed over, covering his mouth frantically, and gesturing frantically with his eyes to others nearby to help stop him.
——Stop talking, stop talking,
They still want to live!!!
After a while, he spoke to the U17 coaching staff in an awkward and cautious tone, "The child is still young..."
"...Ignorance is bliss, right?"
Saito Toshi: Smile.
He calmly turned around and continued, "Since the players have a suggestion—let's start with today's eleven balls."
My heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly died.
Whether it was the winners group, the elimination group, or the overseas expedition group, they were all completely dead.
Toyama Kintaro looked cautiously at his captain and other team members, vaguely knowing that he had said something wrong, which seemed to have led the incident in a bad direction.
He stood there at a loss, quite bewildered.
“I, I…”
Shiraishi Kuranosuke sighed helplessly when he saw this, "It's okay, Xiao Jin, it's okay."
It sounds like he is talking to Toyama Kintaro, but actually it is more like comforting himself.
The winners of the round who had experienced the training level of the devil coach accepted it well.
Although it wasn't originally that good, I had to force myself to be good.
After a short period of time, they successfully convinced themselves.
Anyway, it was only a matter of time before we could train with eleven balls at the same time. This experience only accelerated the process.
It just speeds up the process a little bit, it doesn't matter at all.
There really isn't anything...
Ha ha,
I'm going to die.
The overseas expedition team members and the first round of elimination team members had to accept the current situation and re-read Saito Shi's training schedule and plan.
Start at 6am, start start start...
After reading it again, I finally found the blind spot.
No...why is it only starting and not stopping at all?!
Is this training from morning till night?
Doesn't that mean you have to work from the moment you open your eyes in the morning until the early morning without any rest? ! !
"Eh... Although, I still have something to ask."
After a long silence, someone still held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked,
"Although it's not written here, but we... do have break time, right?"
“…”
“…”
Silence, strange silence,
Both the winning team and the U17 coaching staff maintained an inexplicable silence.
No one commented on this, only Saito Shizai showed a mysterious smile from beginning to end.
Frankly speaking, it's a bit creepy.
In his smile,
The answer seems to be very obvious.
"What rest time? Why sleep? How can you sleep when you're so young? Your current task is to play basketball! Training is training! !"
This sentence is written directly on the face of the smiling tiger Saito Shi.
"It's okay, it's just eleven balls..."
"Yeah, yeah, it's just eleven balls."
"But tomorrow there will be twelve balls..."
“…”
“…”
Everyone suddenly understood.
"No wonder these guys have dark circles under their eyes, like they haven't slept for 800 years. So this is what's causing it!"
After a while, someone coldly reminded,
"No, it's not these guys now, it's us."
As soon as these words were spoken, several people were horrified.
Seeing that they were almost able to accept the current situation, Saito Shi smiled and clapped his hands.
The gate to the stadium opened with a bang, and a figure appeared faintly in the backlight.
All the people who were reorganized into the second-round winners group looked closely and saw the figures that appeared in the backlight - they were the second coach of the U17 coaching team: Kurobe Yukio and Takushi Ryuji!
Their mere appearance would be enough, the most crucial thing is——
In their hands, arms, shoulders, and heads, these two people were carrying buckets of various colors, which together could create a red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and other colors filled with turbid liquids that overflowed with an ominous aura.
"That, that is..." someone asked tremblingly.
Tuozhi Longji posed for a long time and finally waited for this opportunity, and immediately interrupted the conversation.
"This is the super comprehensive tenth generation supreme commemorative edition specially developed by the head coach to save the lives of you guys. It's fully concentrated eight times more potent juice!!!"
"——In short, Gui Juice Cannon!"
Takushi Ryuji rubbed his nose with great emotion, and then looked up at the second round winners group in front of him with great anticipation.
"Be touched! Be touched! Be captivated by the head coach's thoughtfulness and boundless charm!"
Thinking this in his heart, Takushi Ryuji opened his eyes again and saw - wow!
Everyone—get back on your feet!
There was no trace of the emotion he thought it would be. Every face showed "Run, run, run!", "Danger, danger, danger!", "I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"
"'Super Comprehensive Tenth Generation Supreme Commemorative Edition Completely Concentrated Eight Times Potent Gui Juice!' huh...it sounds even more toxic."
"If I drink this bucket, I won't die, but I won't live anymore, haha..."
"——How can it be so scary?"
As soon as the clear and loud voice came out, everyone looked over.
As expected, the only ones who can say this are the recently returned U17 overseas expedition team.
Without having experienced the explosive bombardment of a round of winners' group, she is simply as cute and pitiful as a blank sheet of paper.
For a moment, everyone looked at them with some pity in their eyes.
"It's okay, ignorance is bliss... Don't bother with them, just go away, go away—"
The overseas expedition team members who spoke out were too lucky to know the complex psychology of the winners of the first round. They could only scratch their heads and think, "What's the big deal?"
Then he was tricked by the coaching staff into joining the battle.
Time passed quickly, one ball, two balls, three balls... ten balls,
“——Who can hit eleven balls at this level?!?”
"No, no, I'm going to sue you for abuse!!"
"I'm applying for humanitarian aid!! Support is welcome!!"
Before he could finish his words, the smiling tiger, the devil coach Saito Shi, picked up the Keiji cannon.
He fired a shot at the returning member of the expedition team who was lying on all fours, slowly stretching out Erkang's hand and struggling to crawl out of the door!
With one shot, no matter how many complaints or thoughts there were, they were all cleansed away without a trace.
The brain was washed clean and pure like a baby, with only the tennis ball left.
Saito looked at the effect of the Tendai Comprehensive Juice and felt a little emotional.
"Times have really changed. This thing is more useful than munitions!"
“…”
The members except for the overseas expedition team watched silently, and the moment Saito looked over, they scattered like birds and beasts.
They were all concentrating on playing basketball or drinking juice, not daring to divert their attention, for fear of being spotted by the devil coach who exuded a terrifying aura.
Just kidding, you can return eleven balls at the same time without dying.
But being targeted by a devilish coach is definitely a life worse than death!
"I'm starting to feel like being eliminated might not be such a bad thing..."
"...At least now that I've been eliminated, I won't have to see these idiotic coaches again..."
“…”
"No."
The mumbling sound was suddenly interrupted by a sudden interruption.
The bewildered crowd looked in the direction of the voice, and the person who made the voice was none other than Genichirō Sanada, who had successfully advanced from the elimination round and climbed back to the U17 training camp base!
The sudden appearance of a different voice will undoubtedly be a thorn in the crowd, and even if you don't want to pay attention, you will definitely be attracted.
For example, now, everyone is looking at this "thorn" who is singing a different tune from everyone else.
The overseas expedition team had no impression of this guy. "Hey, what do you mean by 'no'?"
Sanada Genichirō said nothing, only glanced at him calmly, his aura was powerful and majestic, and he was intimidating without even getting angry.
If you persist a little longer, you can almost scare away a bunch of people just by looking at them.
"Genichirō," Yukimura Seiichi called out. Sanada, who had been staring at the direction with his eyes fixed, turned his head and finally spoke.
"Even if we're eliminated, it won't be any better than here."
“…”
"You mean it won't get any better than here...?"
Genichirō Sanada was unwilling to speak any more. Other members who had also advanced from the elimination group and climbed back to the U17 training camp base were also helpful and friendly.
Seeing how pitiful they looked, being kept in the dark and knowing nothing, he slowly reminded them,
"Here, there is a devil coach,"
"Is there no one in the elimination group?"
"But—isn't the coach of the elimination group head coach Mifune?"
"Head Coach Mifune?"
“Isn’t it??”
After exchanging information, they looked at each other in confusion, you looked at me, I looked at you,
Finally, a question parted the fog.
"Eh... If I remember correctly, the current head coach of the U17 is... Coach Yagi, right?"
“…”
"Y-Which Yagi?"
I looked at him with a look of idiocy, and finally someone replied slowly,
"We have such a big U17 team. Besides that Yagi, who else is there?"
"...the one who defeated Byodoin and the mysterious hooded man number four...Yagi?"
With the 'what else do you think' stare at me like a fool, my head spins in an instant.
It was only a few months, and I went on an overseas expedition.
U17 No.1 changed players, it's OK if No.1 changed players,
Why did they even change the head coach?!
Wait, maybe it’s because of the change of head coach that the U17 team is now in such a devilish, inhuman state!!
All of a sudden, everyone discovered the truth of the world.
All the abnormalities of the U17 team from the beginning to now were explained at once!
The reason was extremely clear and had even been presented to everyone, but no one could accept it calmly.
They stared at each other silently, staring at each other...
"——Don't be in a daze, boys! Hurry up and continue training!!" Takushi Ryuji urged, waving his palm fan.
The man carrying the huge Guiju Cannon seemed eager to try it out.
"If you don't want to go to training, come and try my comprehensive ten-generation juice. How about that——"
Before he even finished speaking, everyone on the spot scattered like birds and beasts.
This time, no matter whether it is an elimination group, a winner group or an overseas expedition group,
The moment I realized that the second elimination group was undergoing the same culprit that caused all the current U17 problems, the shitty companion training,
——No one dared to slack off anymore, one after another was more enthusiastic than if they had taken stimulants,
Just kidding, it would have been fine if I didn’t know before, but now that I know - who dares to be eliminated again!
Better to be killed by eleven exploding tennis balls than to be sent down to keep the company of a rotten cat!
The collective consciousness hovering over the entire U17 training camp base is thick and deep, almost accumulating into heavy resentment that will not dissipate for a long time.
The U17 coaching staff, led by Saito Shi, is pleased with the positive, lively, and enthusiastic attitude displayed by the U17 team.
I deeply feel that the guidance of the new head coach Kei Yagi is correct, and I am even more determined to practice the chicken-bai-cat method in depth!
——Guimen!
The U17 training camp base is singing the praises of "Guimen".
Meanwhile, in the U17 back mountain mine, the second round elimination group, who were forced to jump up and down and run around everywhere, had completely lost hope of survival.
Especially the group of players who returned from overseas expeditions who thought they were just revisiting their old place and meeting their former U17 head coach, Mifune Nyudo.
It only took one day, or even less than half a day - the world view has undergone earth-shaking changes!
A mere slime, a mere skeleton, a mere ghost, a mere golem, a mere lava crab—
Can't these things really appear in reality?!
Although I doubted it, it still appeared.
Moreover, he actually ran after me like this,
He said, "If you don't run, I won't run either. Let's fight together and attack together!" But in the blink of an eye, the Jibai Cat drove a huge monster Gundam and rushed over.
——This is not something that these people with limited experience can handle.
This is clearly a life-threatening question! A life-threatening question!!
"Don't be afraid, everyone—come behind me and grab the rackets!"
As everyone was in a state of panic, the Phoenix of Byodoin shouted, and the loud shout immediately attracted the attention of all the people who were fleeing.
With Byodoin leading the way, the second-round elimination group, which had been crushed by the Monster Gundam, had no choice but to set their sights on him and head towards him, each with a hint of hope in their hearts.
"If it was the former U17 No. 1, Byodoin Phoenix, perhaps it would be possible—"
"Pah!"
“…”
“……?”
It was so crisp and clear, like swatting a mosquito, and it disappeared in an instant.
The second round elimination group that had just gathered looked up in confusion.
The person who was shouting "Don't be afraid, hide behind me" in front of me just a second ago,
The next second, he stepped on it like a paper tiger, and it disappeared without a trace.
“Where’s Byodoin…?”
Someone spoke tremblingly.
After a long while, Echizen Ryuya said slowly, "It didn't last more than half a second."
The Phoenix of Byodoin Temple was the first to be hit, and was sacrificed on the spot by the monster Gundam driven by Jibaimao.
This tragic scene directly stimulated everyone present——
In a blink of an eye, everyone turned around and ran, even running very fast, shouting as they ran.
"God damn it, someone's been murdered—is there anyone who can seek justice?!"
The only person who can uphold justice is the cat, who is having a blast driving a Gundam and has no time to uphold justice.
Seeing the dodge and speed of the NPCs rising in the five-dimensional numerical chart above their heads, the player drove even harder, and was about to control the monsters to move forward.
Suddenly, a strange feeling came over me.
If I had to describe it, it feels like stepping on a ball of rubber and then slowly bouncing back to its original shape.
The player looked down—
[Ding!]
[Special NPC·Byodoin Phoenix's passive skill 'Phoenix Nirvana'——activated!]
[Special NPC·Byōdōin Phoenix's five-dimensional values have been slightly increased! ]
The Byodoin Temple, crushed by the monster Gundam, has its own resurrection armor. It is reborn from the ashes, like a phoenix, and returns with even greater strength and glory.
Player: That’s interesting.
A again.
"Pah!"
With flames burning all over his body, Edo-in was about to utter the classic line: "..."
[Ding!]
[Special NPC·Byodoin Phoenix's passive skill 'Phoenix Nirvana'——activated again! ]
[Special NPC·Phoenix of Equal Court has its five-dimensional values slightly increased! ]
Player: A again.
[Ding!]
[Special NPC·Byodoin Phoenix's passive skill 'Phoenix Nirvana' - activated for the third time!]
[Special NPC·Byōdōin Phoenix's five-dimensional values have been slightly increased! ]
Player: !!
——Player, found a monster spawner!!
