Chapter 21: 1 update + 4k work collection and additional update. The players' stadiums are all...
The player let Tezuka go, let Rikkai University go, and let Seigaku go.
Because - now there is something more important waiting for the players!
That is [Emergency Mission: Friendly Discussion with Seigaku]!
Now the people from Rikkai University didn't dare to move an inch. They stared at Yagi Kei who was being held hostage from all sides, fearing that he would run around again if they weren't paying attention.
On the Qingxue side, Oishi Shuichiro was silent for a moment, then slowly trembled in his voice: "Tezuka...your foot..."
Fuji Shusuke and Kawamura Takashi looked at him silently.
Tezuka calmly pushed up his glasses and said, "Go prepare for the practice match!"
Momoshiro Takeshi and Echizen Ryoma successfully witnessed Tezuka slowly turning around and then taking one step at a time.
Momoshiro Takeshi: "I think the chief is in so much pain that he can't maintain his expression, so he turned around to play it cool."
Echizen Ryoma: “…I think so too.”
Only Kaidou Xun, who had faded out of the crowd and was not hit, passed by coldly: "Boring."
Although Ryuzaki Sumire was puzzled, she was young after all, so she could understand him making some innovative moves.
It just seems a little too innovative... so that only innovation remains.
"——Please give me your guidance!"
"Yes! Thanks for your guidance!"
The Rikkai University and Seigaku teams finally faced off on opposite sides of the net.
Sanada and Tezuka, who were at the front of the line, looked at each other.
Sanada couldn't help but look down, but he restrained himself and pulled his hat, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
Tezuka: "It doesn't matter."
Sanada was silent for a moment. Although he wanted to ask about Tezuka's elbow, his gaze shifted and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Your foot—"
Tezuka: “…”
Tezuka: "That's okay."
Sanada said solemnly, "Don't force yourself. If there's any problem, the Rikkai Kai will be responsible."
Fuji, Oishi and others beside him couldn't help but look over.
But...is it really okay? Tezuka, your eyelids are twitching!
At the end of the team, Ryoma Echizen and the player with dead eyes looked at each other.
Echizen Ryoma: "Hey, you've been making quite a bit of noise here."
Echizen Ryoma: "Since you're an interesting guy, I'm Echizen Ryoma. What's your name?"
Player: “…”
Players are still rummaging through their backpacks in immersive mode.
Although I only turned half of the trash can, I still picked up a lot of small pieces of trash.
Now is the perfect time to tidy it up!
Momoshiro Takeshi was attracted by their (one-sided) conversation and followed over.
Kirihara Akaya noticed this and looked at Yagi Kei who seemed to be in a daze. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Kui, the people from Seigaku are calling you."
Echizen Ryoma waited,
He waited and waited, and waited again.
Kirihara Akaya scratched his head: "Sorry, sorry, Kei didn't ignore me on purpose, you know, he's just like that... daydreaming or something, anyway, he'll be fine after a while!"
As he finished speaking, the person who had been in a daze finally moved.
Just as Ryoma Echizen was about to say something, Yagi Kei quickly gave him a JJ Coke.
Echizen Ryoma: “…”
He took the JJ Coke that was stuffed into his hand and said slowly: "This... I remember, I found it in the trash can before, right?"
"Even though it was found in the trash can, it's also a symbol of affection!" Momoshiro Takeshi saw it and patted Echizen Ryoma's shoulder.
"Ryoma, stop being so picky~"
He turned to look at Yagi Kei, "Right, right, this——"
The player attacked again.
Taocheng fell into silence as he passively carried the two-meter-three-meter flounder.
Even moving.
He was even jumping around and doing tap dance on the ground with Taocheng.
Kirihara Akaya: "Ahahaha... Kei sometimes gives you some weird things, but he doesn't mean any harm, so just accept them!"
As Kirihara Akaya said this, he turned around and Yagi Kei stuffed a ball of sticky and wet seaweed into his mouth.
Kirihara Akaya: “…QAQ!!”
In comparison, Ryoma Echizen suddenly felt that what he received was extremely normal and felt sincerely relieved.
He pulled up his hat and glanced at Momoshiro Takeshi, who was still rolling on the ground with the giant flatfish.
"Senior A Tao, you're still a long way off."
Taocheng Wu: "..."
By the time the Seigaku members had hurriedly separated Momoshiro and the giant flounder, the battle lists for both sides had already been arranged.
Echizen Ryoma had already learned Yagi's name from the conversation at Rikkai University just now. At this moment, he was coolly passing by the battle table, scanning it from bottom to top one by one.
The battle groups of Qingxue are arranged according to the order of winning the school ranking competition.
Li Haida...
"Then let's do it the same way as usual—draw lots."
Rikkai University took the paper ball from Yanagi's hand, and the player clicked on the six-sided dice that popped up in the cutscene CG.
The dice spiral spun rapidly, and with a ding!
[The battle position you drew this time is——]
【Double Number One! 】
Kirihara Akaya: "——I'm the doubles number two!"
Marui Bunta: "It's actually a one-on-one fight."
Yagyu Hiroshi: "Three singles."
Kuwabara and Yanagi also showed what they drew, one singles two and one doubles two.
"Then there are two more, is it a doubles match?"
"Puri~ It's actually a doubles-on-one match," Niou smiled and shook the note in his hand, and everyone looked at Sanada.
Sanada silently showed his empty sign.
Okay, another doubles team shows up - Kei Yagi.
Everyone in Rikkai looked at the younger generation with dead eyes holding the lottery slip, and then slowly looked at Nioh who was smiling and had his tail raised like a fox.
Swallowing hard, Marui said, "You two...will put up a good fight, right?"
Niou Masaharu smiled but said nothing.
Look at Kei Yagi again...well, no one ever knows what he is thinking.
Sanada said solemnly: "We must not lose!"
Yagi Kei: "Can't lose."
Rikkai University: “…”
Rikkai University: “!!!”
——He actually spoke human language!!
It feels so strange that this crazy cat at home who is always acting crazy suddenly becomes quite human one day... It's so incongruous!
The first feeling of the people at Rikkai was not touching, but uneasiness.
Marui Fumita was cautious: "Kyu, you're not going to do anything excessive next!"
Kirihara Akaya stammered, cautiously: "Kui, are you planning to do something again?"
He squeezed out with difficulty, "Or, or you should take back what you said!"
"I-We don't actually have to cheer up!"
Player: “…”
The player turned and walked away.
Weird NPC, so weird.
The player took out the bucket and stool again, sat down and continued fishing with the tennis racket.
The people at Rikkai watched for a while and confirmed that Yagi Kei was just fishing and did nothing else and said nothing.
"This kid is too quiet. I always feel uneasy..."
"……Me too."
“…”
"...Go ahead and try to finish it as quickly as possible."
“Yes, yes!”
Several people watched Yanagi and Kirihara go on stage, but they stayed close to Yagi Kei and didn't leave.
Yanagi and Kirihara fought very quickly, and they almost unleashed their full strength as soon as they entered the arena. Their fierce attack caught the opposing team, Oishi and Kaido, off guard and forced them to run around in disarray.
"Is Rikkai University so powerful right from the start?!"
"I don't know. Oishi and Kaidou were completely unable to withstand it..."
"Is this the power of the Kanto Overlord...so terrifying!"
Standing outside the court, watching his old friend play data tennis, Gan couldn't help but whisper, "Lian Er..."
"——Kirihara Yanagi vs. Oishi Kaido, 6:1!"
Originally, Qingxue was beaten one-sidedly, and the members looked unhappy.
But for some reason, Rikkai University looked even uglier than them.
It was like being chased by a mad dog and not daring to slow down at all.
The youth club members speculated: "Why do they feel more anxious than us?"
"I don't know. Is it a special rule of Rikkai University? If you exceed a few minutes, you will be fined?"
"It's possible, it's possible! That's why Rikkai University is the dominant force in Kanto!"
"I see! This is Rikkai University!"
As Seigaku's impression of them gradually becomes demonized, Kirihara and Yanagi are eager to return.
He waited outside the court, facing Liu who was coming down with the ball. Before he could stop him, Liu started talking without stopping.
"Although I also want to reminisce about the past, Sadaharu, now is not the time."
"Next time, definitely next time."
Saying "I'll definitely do it next time," Yanagi hurried back to the Rikkai University team with Kirihara Akaya without even looking back.
Before I could finish a word: "..."
Seeing their juniors still sitting there fishing, Kirihara and Yanagi, who had been tense, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Nothing unusual?"
"No, I just sit here and fish."
"I see..."
After a few quick exchanges, the subject of the conversation shifted.
Everyone's nerves were suddenly tense!
The player put away the bucket and stool and counted the fish he had caught. When he looked up, he saw the NPCs blocking his way.
Kirihara Akari couldn't tell whether he was looking forward to it or not, so he spoke cautiously, "Kui, are you going to start doing something now?"
Player: “?”
Niou Masaharu smiled and whistled: "You're wrong, Akaya, now it's time for our juniors to make their debut~"
Everyone then belatedly remembered that Kei Yagi and Masaharu Niou were a doubles team.
My heart, which had just relaxed, tightened in my throat again.
...It's not that I don't believe in their strength,
It would be strange if the monster freshman who had defeated the entire Rikkai University lost here, but...
Marui, out of caution, still asked, "Kyu... you know about doubles, right?"
Player: “…”
Marui: "..."
Marui: "——!!!"
The player bypassed the crash and shouted, "It's over! This kid doesn't even know what doubles is!!" Marui Bunta stepped onto the court.
The background sound was Kuwabara's voice trying to comfort him, "It's okay, Bunta, it's okay, at least Nioh is here."
Marui Fumita took a deep breath and let out a fatal cry: "Because of Niou's presence, I will definitely become an accomplice to the evil!!"
Jack Sangyuan: "..."
Others: “…”
The thought of the two most difficult guys in the department getting together,
Silence, silence is Rikkai University today.
Kirihara Akaya laughed twice, trying to make up for it a little: "Don't worry, Marui-senpai, it shouldn't be that..."
"Ohhh!! It's two of those guys!"
"Wait, there was only one person who just came up, right?! Why are there two of the same person?!"
Kirihara Akaya looked back blankly, and after seeing clearly, his heart suddenly died.
As soon as they saw the two Yagi Kei standing on the field, the Rikkai players in the audience couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Two... two Yagi..."
"I can't take it anymore... I need to go out and take a breath. Just seeing this scene is enough to make my heart hurt."
Marui and Kuwabara supported each other weakly, trembling and almost fainting on the spot.
Sanada and Yanagi said nothing, and only Yagyu Hiroshi, the only calm one, noticed the bulging veins on his forehead.
"Even Sanada-kun couldn't withstand Yagi-kun's intimidation, right? What will Niou-kun do if he imitates Yagi-kun..." Yagyu Hiroshi looked at the field with some interest.
The Echizen-Kikumaru duo came up from Seigaku's side of the court.
Echizen Ryoma silently looked at Coach Ryuzaki on the sidelines, and then silently looked at Yagi Kei*2 who was separated by a net.
Even he couldn't help but fall into an unspeakable silence.
What a wonderful combination this is...
It would have been fine if he had never tried doubles before, but his first doubles opponent was this strange guy from Rikkai University.
He pulled his hat off and picked up his racket.
The referee blew the whistle.
"Niou Yagi vs. Echizen Kikumaru, the match begins!"
Kikumaru Eiji deftly stretched his body, turned around and winked with ease: "Don't worry, little one, I'll take care of you~ Doubles will definitely be fun~!"
Oh, isn't it interesting?
Echizen Ryoma just kept pulling down his hat to try to avoid the dead eyes*2.
It's too much of a magical attack, this expressionless face.
The player swung the racket twice, and a message popped up in front of him: [Entering doubles mode...]
Doubles mode?
A few seconds flash, the page switches,
Players found that there was an extra column of teammate status in the upper right corner.
[Second position: Niou Masaharu
Health: 100
Physical strength: 81
Skills: 'Phantom' - in use (can phantom into any character and perform the character's moves);
'Synchronize' - failed to use, trying again]
Is this the skill of Mirror CosNPC?
A wonderful idea suddenly came to the player's mind.
Echizen Ryoma sneezed suddenly, and Kikumaru Eiji waved his tennis racket to comfort him: "Little one! Don't be so nervous that you sneeze~"
Echizen Ryoma: "I'm not—"
Kikumaru Eiji: "Hey, hey~ Then let's get started!"
Echizen Ryoma tugged at his hat and said, "Got it!"
Echizen Kikumaru got the serve and they attacked first.
The first serve was also a test. Echizen Ryoma took out a tennis ball from his pocket, bent his knees and swung the racket hard.
Kikumaru jumped over screaming, "Hey, little one! You almost hit me!!"
Echizen Ryoma looked away: "...I'm sorry."
Rikkai University saw this and finally felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, fortunately, the opponent is such a newbie combination, so they must be fine...
Players adhere to the principle of hitting the ball as soon as they have it, and they swing their rackets by raising their hands and running their feet forward.
With two "cracks", the tennis rackets of the player and the "player" collided violently.
I watched helplessly as the tennis racket in the player's hand was hit 360 degrees and fell to the ground, spinning twice on the spot.
There was a sudden silence inside and outside the stadium.
Rikkai University: “…”
Qingxue: "..."
——It’s not any better at all!!
"This...this power, isn't it a bit too terrifying..."
"He actually knocked his teammate's racket flying... Is this really doubles?"
"Haha, isn't this also doubles? It's just hitting people instead of playing ball~"
"Although... it seems that the situation here is not much better..."
Players finally feel the difficulty of the new doubles mode.
As the saying goes, teammates are opponents!
No matter what, now the players are going to start 1V3!
Niou Masaharu's mood at the moment was not as relaxed as he looked, although at first he just wanted to try it out and use "Phantom" to imitate the younger generation.
'Phantom' was successful, but 'Synchronicity' failed.
It's really impossible to guess what this young junior of theirs is thinking.
Moreover, why did he involuntarily follow the actions of his junior and rush forward even though it was just a 'phantom' imitation?!
Although I might be influenced by someone I imitate, it shouldn't be like this...
Could it be that Yagi Kei is essentially... a muscle idiot? !
Thoughts kept flashing through Ren Wang's mind.
He quickly convinced himself that no, it shouldn't be possible... After all, he was invincible in Rikkai University, it would be strange if he was just a muscle idiot.
But it's not completely impossible. After all, this guy farms every day and once sawed a tree with a tennis racket in public...
Niou Masaharu's expression became increasingly solemn, and his movements became increasingly stiff.
Nioh, who constantly refused to think in this direction, was influenced by the 'phantom'. He became more and more reckless in the fight, and the whole process was a miracle of great strength.
After one serving game, he didn't score many points and almost got into a fight with Kei Yagi.
"Game Nioh·Yagi VS Echizen·Kikumaru, 0-1!"
Marui said slowly: "Next time...it's better not to let Niou and Kei play doubles together."
Kuwabara added, "No, not just Niou... Let's even consider doubles."
He slowed down: "After all... Yagi is now just one against three!"
Rikkai University: “…”
The player is indeed fighting one against three.
Opponent? Kill them.
Teammates? Kill them too, it's just a matter of convenience.
While the player is pulling and tearing, using basic attacks interspersed with normal attacks to wear down the health bars of the opponent's combination, and at the same time, he is wearing down the health and stamina bars of his teammates by hitting them hard and protecting his opponents.
——Until the teammate's health and stamina bars dropped to a precarious 20.
Warning! Warning!
[Teammate's health/HP will automatically surrender if it falls below 20! ]
Player: “…”
Player: “???”
What?
What are you saying to the player, a little kitty who works so hard and diligently to fight three people alone?!
Niou maintained his phantom, his stamina constantly depleted. In addition, he had to resist the phantom Yagi Kei's instinctive charge and constantly cooperate with Yagi Kei's bizarre guerrilla movement. Sometimes he couldn't keep up and was even attacked by Yagi Kei's headbutt from behind.
For the first time, he felt that it was a wise move to recruit Yagyu Hiroshi from the golf club.
Birusi! After today's match, I will definitely cherish every doubles match with you!
Big drops of sweat rolled down from Niou's body, and he even seemed to be unable to maintain his "illusion".
And just then, the player appeared.
Don't worry - your players are here!
"What is he going to do..."
"I don't know. We're playing the game right now..."
“…”
"No, what does he want to do?!!"
Nioh, who had not yet realized how hopeless the future was, was confused and bewildered by the players who were approaching step by step and forced to spend a bunch of green onions.
Everyone watched as Mushroom Head felt it was not enough, so he took out a lively sardine from the other dimension and stuffed it into the mouth.
The whole scene... was too horrific to watch.
I just want people to say "Amen" in silence.
Marui said slowly: "How about we pause and save Niou..."
Kuwabara's eyes twitched as he watched, "Yes, yes, Niou's crime...doesn't deserve the death penalty..."
The veins on Sanada's forehead were throbbing. Even if he wanted to say something, the current situation on the field...
What's going on on the field right now?!
It was complete chaos!!
After pulling the health and stamina bars of his teammate NPC until they were full, the player finally stopped.
Inoue covered his mouth and felt as if his tongue and stomach were not his own.
"I really can't eat anymore... Ugh, really... I can't eat at all..."
After a short break, Kikumaru and Echizen sat on the rest bench at Seigaku.
Although the people off the court could only see that there were two Yagi Kei on the opposite side, and the fight was very chaotic.
However, as opponents on the other side of the net in a direct state, their perception is the strongest.
Oishi squatted down and handed Kikumaru a towel. He keenly noticed that although Kikumaru was smiling, the degree of physical exertion was abnormal.
It was obvious that the whole person had exceeded the exercise limit, and the sweating and breathing were too intense.
He said in a deep voice, "How about it, Kikumaru? Is it too much of a stretch to bring Echizen with you?"
Kikumaru Eiji waved his hand, "It's not a problem for the little one, Oishi."
Echizen Ryoma, covered in a towel, also took a sip of water. "It's that guy from Rikkai University... How strange."
Taocheng Wu was puzzled: "Strange?"
They could see clearly from below, "Didn't Rikkai University's doubles team play really messily? And they didn't get too far ahead, did they?"
The current score is 3:2, and the gap has not widened.
Echizen Ryoma lowered his head and wiped his face. "It just looks that way."
Kikumaru Eiji: "Atao, you guys are just watching from the sidelines, so you think so..."
He smiled, "But I have to say that little guy from Rikkai University is indeed worthy of being a Rikkai University student."
"It's not so much that they played in a mess, but rather that he was the only one who was attacking in the true sense."
"From the very beginning, he didn't treat his partner as a partner!"
Qing Xue and the others looked at each other in confusion, "That is to say..."
"In other words—"
Kikumaru Eiji pulled down his towel and wiped his sweaty face. "That little guy was ready for a 1v3 fight from the very beginning, and he kept doing it, winning three games by himself!"
What Kikumaru Eiji didn't say was that when he, Echizen and even the teammate on the opposite side were feeling tired, the little guy was still in peak condition... and even had a tendency to get better.
It was as if they had been fighting for so long before... but it was just a simple warm-up.
Kikumaru sighed: "——The young are really formidable, the young are really formidable~"
Here at Rikkai University,
Players are thinking about how to maximize the effectiveness of their teammates.
If I can't kill my teammates, and even have to protect them from being killed...
Niou Masaharu, who was sitting on a bench wiping his face, felt a chill run down his body for some reason.
Sanada scolded: "That's so unbecoming!"
Liu analyzed: "Although we are currently ahead, if we continue like this, our chances of winning will be..."
"98.11%."
He paused, and so did the others.
Niou: "Since the staff officer's calculations indicate a guaranteed victory... can I request a mid-game replacement now?"
Although everyone felt sorry for him, they still cruelly rejected it.
Marui: "Just bear with it a little longer, Niou, just bear with it a little longer, it's nothing serious...it's nothing serious!"
Nioh: Fake smile.
The brief pause was fleeting and both sides had to go on the court again.
Nioh sighed, and 'Phantom' was about to be activated once again.
But the player moved first.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the figure of Yagi Kei standing in front of him flashed, and in the blink of an eye again, the first-year student of Seigaku appeared in front of him!
Rikkai University: “!!”
Where's Yagi?! Where did Yagi go again?!
Equip and start!
[Echizen Ryoma's FILA baseball cap: Echizen Ryoma's body.
Additional: The equipment can temporarily confuse nearby NPCs, turning them into Echizen Ryoma.
The player who cosplayed as an NPC sent the command "Imitate me!" to his teammates through the team channel.
After a moment of shock, Niou Masaharu quickly understood the younger generation's intention through a mysterious brain wave, and hesitantly activated the illusion.
The people from Rikkai University and Seigaku blinked again.
On the tennis court—three Echizen Ryoma suddenly appeared!!
Echizen Ryoma himself: "..."
Kikumaru Eiji looked at this, then that, and then that.
He slowly opened his mouth: "Little one...how did you become three..."
"Three Echizen! Three Echizen!! Illusion! This is definitely an illusion!!"
"The one on the left is as short as Echizen, the one on the right is also as short as Echizen, but the one in the middle... why is he so tall?!"
"——Which one is the real little one?"
Under the Qingxue field, Fuji turned his head slightly to look at Tezuka who was crossing his arms, "There are three Echizen now, Tezuka."
Tezuka pushed up his glasses, "Fuji,"
Fuji smiled, "Um, Tezuka?"
Tezuka: "Echizen will become the pillar of Seigaku."
Fuji: "Hmm... So, all three?"
Tezuka: “…”
Upon hearing this, everyone in Seigaku clenched their fists in shock: "Could it be that this is the pillar that Minister Tezuka mentioned, Echizen!?"
“——That’s Echizen No. 3!!”
"As expected! Echizen No. 3!!"
Because he was so tall compared to the two dwarfs on his left and right, Echizen No. 3, Niou Masaharu, was singled out for focus: "..."
...God TM Pillar·Echizen,
Are all of you young people not normal? !

The author has something to say: I came here so fast (wipe sweat), I forgot to set the time (took out a small cushion and slowly knelt down
And then! Because—I have to put on the clamp tomorrow!
