Chapter 120
Representatives from five countries took the stage one after another, starting with the Empire and ending with the Federation.
Andrei performed a court salute to the crowd with a graceful, elegant and noble demeanor, which aroused cheers from the audience.
"Waaaaah Prince look at me!"
"Andre is so elegant I'm dying!"
It is said that one of the reasons why Andrei has such high public support in the empire is his extremely high appearance. The prince wants to find love on his own and does not consider the identity of his lover, as long as he truly loves each other.
This made countless little O's and little B's fantasize about a beautiful fairy tale, imagining that the prince would come riding on a handsome horse, carrying jewels, and kiss the back of his lover's hand affectionately and make a lifelong vow.
Tang Bai was sitting in the audience, and seeing Andre's jade-like face that combined majesty and grace on the big screen, he had to admit that this prince was indeed handsome and elegant.
The audience's infatuation with Andre ended the moment Xie Ruheng appeared on the stage. The black-haired, black-eyed alpha took off his military cap, his expression was cold, and he looked handsome as cast.
Rather than a prince, he is more like a knight who travels thousands of miles, carries a dragon-slaying sword, and cuts through thorns and brambles just to save you.
"Ahhhh thank God this is so awesome!"
"I want to give birth to a baby boy for God's sake!"
Tang Bai: “?” You guys are a bunch of shameless beauty lovers, that’s enough.
Tang Bai put down the straw-filled milk tea with an expressionless face, picked up two fluorescent sticks, and shouted to Xie Ruheng on the stage with all his strength: "Thank you, God! I will give you flowers! Fruits! Mountains!!!"
The fans sitting nearby said: “?!”
Tang Bai's shout was drowned out by the huge cheers. Everyone was shouting the names of their favorite players. The hall was so lively that even the host's introduction of the competition rules was drowned out for a moment.
The Mecha Cup has single-player and team battle modes. On the first day, a one-on-one battle will be conducted. The opposing teams will be randomly selected, and the players sent by each team are decided by the team itself.
In the first round, the Federation and the Empire were drawn. The map was randomly generated and it was a map of an underwater forest. Many props in the players' competition venue were real, such as the river water and trees made of metal. The holographic projection technology made it possible to confuse the real with the fake.
In addition to the area where the players compete, corresponding changes have also taken place in the audience seats.
The seat where Tang Bai was sitting matched the environment and turned into a lotus. Not only that, a pair of light butterfly wings appeared behind him.
Tang Bai had not expected such a design. He tried to touch the wings, and his fingertips passed through the sparkling white butterfly wings.
"I don't accept it! Why am I a frog!" An audience member shouted angrily.
Then there was another even louder roar, "Why am I a toad?! Am I not even worthy of being a frog?!"
The audience members transformed into strange and bizarre appearances, including small animals and some even turned into stones.
Tang Bai saw the audience sitting next to him transformed into a big frog and squatted on the lotus leaf. The beta was originally very angry, but when he found the toad not far away, he almost laughed out loud.
The spectator smiled and looked back, and saw the little omega who was holding up the lotus petals with his hands, and was immersed in the heart of the flower, looking at him with his head tilted. His amber eyes were like solidified honey, and there was a faint sweet fragrance lingering in his eyes. The wings that were conjured by the system flapped and emitted bright fluorescent light.
This scene was like an innocent elf in a fairy tale. The beta audience's green frog face turned slightly red. He heard Tang Bai's soft consolation: "Frogs are also cute. Have you heard of the story of "The Frog Prince"? This may mean that after watching this competition, you will be able to meet a princess who will kiss you~"
Beta audience: "!!!" Mom! I'm in love!!!
The audience in the audience was discussing enthusiastically, and the teams on the stage also decided on the players to be sent after discussion.
The Empire team has Parker Reese playing.
Chris's mecha is a humanoid mecha full of classical atmosphere. He holds a long pole in his hand and his eyes glow red. He drives the mecha silently and floats on the water. When the name of the mecha "Charon, the Ferryman of the Styx" was announced, the barrage of comments expressed that it was too arrogant.
Charon is the ferryman of the River Styx, responsible for guiding the dead souls to the other side of the river. Giving the mecha this name is just short of saying that he is sending his opponent to death.
[This name has a built-in sarcasm buff. The names in our country are too gentle, restrained, and plain. We can’t beat them at all.]
[Can the Federation's mecha builders learn how to name things from the Empire?! How cool it would be if they named them!]
[A very pretentious name, in the style of an empire]
[The appearance is also very classical and beautiful. An empire is an empire, with cultural heritage]
"Next, please welcome our Federation team player Gu Tunan with his Lonely Frog!" The host's passionate introduction caused the barrage to fall into a momentary silence.
[Am I hallucinating? ]
[This naming style! Is this the name my boyfriend gave me? ]
[The Ferryman of the Styx suddenly became bored]
After Gu Tunan appeared on the stage driving the green Sad Frog, the barrage fell into silence for three seconds.
[Ah... this green hat is quite fashionable]
[Although I don’t want to admit it, my eyes have been deeply attracted by the frog]
[Shit, I actually thought Frog won this wave of taunts???]
[Unless the opponent sends out the Cuckoo, it will be difficult to save face]
According to international custom, both sides have to make harsh remarks before the game. However, when Chris saw the green Lone Frog, he actually forgot what he was going to say.
The green mecha opened its mouth and uttered a resounding "lonely" to Chris.
It looked like a greeting, but a strong sense of malice was almost written all over Chris's face!
Is there anything worse than calling a single person "lonely"?
Chris sneered, "This is a competition, not a joke. Don't cry about being alone if you lose."
Gu Tunan was too lazy to speak, so he pressed the speaker and sent the second word "lonely" to Chris.
After the pre-match communication, the two players quickly entered the battle state during the ten-second countdown.
Charon, the ferryman of the Styx, was suspended on the water, and the lonely frog was standing on a tall tree. At the moment the countdown ended, the two mechas quickly rushed towards each other.
High-end players are very fast. Normally, the live broadcast ends before you can even get a taste of it. The audience needs to go back and adjust the magnification to 0.5x to watch it slowly.
The audience was actually watching the commentary on the public screen, where the host’s voice and large gold-plated characters quickly appeared:
"Charon and the Lonely Frog had a fierce first clash! Both mechas are very fast!"
It was indeed very fast, and there was almost an afterimage. The eyes of the mecha operated by Chris shot red light at the oncoming Gu Tunan. He couldn't wait to flatten this ugly big frog!
"Charon, the ferryman of the Styx, has used his killer move, 'Pirifulegoton's Gaze'! Can Gutunan dodge it at such a close distance?!"
Gu Tunan was not at all surprised by the laser that suddenly shot out and pierced through the protective layer. He kept calm and rushed at lightning speed, and the green figure dodged and perfectly avoided the gaze of Pili Folegon.
The red light penetrated the steel tree, and the remaining energy broke through the four-layer energy shield. The tree fell into the river, causing a huge wave.
The mecha operated by Chris raised the condensation pole, the latest development of the Empire. It looked like the long pole used by Charon, the ferryman of the Styx. He swung the pole at the water like a boatman. When the long pole flashed white light, the water mist in the sky froze into ice.
Killer move: Swinging Grip!
The biting cold instantly spread across the entire map, and ice shot out from Chris as the center! The purpose was obviously to freeze Gu Tunan!
The dew turned into ice and the grass and trees froze.
At this moment, countless vines suddenly burst out of the small package on the back of the Lonely Frog. The vines were instantly frozen into ice lumps, helping the Lonely Frog to block Chris's explosion.
Because the cultivation of real mechanical vines requires a large amount of energy crystals, Tang Bai modified the mechanical vines equipped on the Lonely Frog. The modified vines are stored in the mecha in the form of seeds and are stimulated by a small number of energy crystals. They can grow in a short time, but their lifespan is severely shortened and they can only support one battle.
The cold air was rapidly eroding the place, and the Lone Frog shot into the forest.
"The advantage of 'Pendulge Grip' in water battles is very obvious, but contestant Gu Tunan used the improved mechanical vines to intercept Chris's 'Pendulge Grip'!" The host said quickly: "Gu Tunan used 'Frog Leap' to retreat to his original position to temporarily avoid the blade!"
The green Lone Frog ricocheted back into the forest. Because the color of the mecha matched the forest perfectly, the Lone Frog seemed to blend into the forest.
Chris turned on the detection system and scanned the forest, but he did not detect Gu Tunan among the dense trees, moss-covered stones and spider-like vines.
Where else could it be if not in the forest?
Chris turned around and carefully drove the mecha to scan the area. There were no ripples on the unfrozen water surface not far away.
Wait... this is a forest on water!
Chris was startled, and just as he was about to escape, eight emerald green vines quickly passed through the calm water surface and instantly tied up Chris's mecha in the splashing water.
Those are mechanical vines that grow explosively in a short period of time!
"The Lone Frog used 'Vine Binding' to temporarily trap Charon, the ferryman of the Styx!"
Chris raised his Swinging Grip and tried his best to attack the python-like vines, but it was too late. The mechanical vines frozen by the cold became even harder. Gu Tunan created countless mechanical vines in a short period of time. These vines entangled the legs and abdomen of the humanoid mecha, severely limiting Chris's speed.
The camera in the water shows the audience a large net woven from mechanical vines, and in the center of the net is Charon, the ferryman of the Styx whom Gu Tunan wants to capture!
The host said excitedly: "It turns out that Gu Tunan dived into the water the moment he entered the forest. Due to the cover of the ice layer and the darkness under the lamp, Chris did not notice the threat under his feet. When Chris was inspecting the forest, Gu Tunan seized the precious opportunity to lay a vine trap! It caught Chris off guard!"
The Lonely Frog mecha suddenly broke through the ice, and countless vines exploded with it. The mechanical vines with bared fangs and claws entangled the neck of Charon, the ferryman of the Styx. After tying up the opponent tightly, the Lonely Frog opened its mouth wide and bit off the head of Charon, the ferryman of the Styx, and let out a full-bodied "Lonely".
When the screen went black while Chris was driving, he heard the host's commentary: "...The Lonely Frog used 'Frog Eating Flies' to successfully destroy the defense system of Charon, the god of the underworld!"
Q: Is there anything more humiliating than being defeated by a mech called the Lone Frog?
Answer: The killing move used by the opponent when harvesting heads is called "Frog eating fly".
"The winner has been decided! The Lonely Frog of Gu Tunan of the Federation team has successfully defeated Charon of Chris of the Empire team!"
The public screen showed a slow-motion replay of the entire process of the Lonely Frog diving into the water. There was no sound, like an assassin blending into the environment. The dive was so perfect that even tadpoles swam leisurely past the Frog.
This should have been a textbook lurking tutorial, but the barrage is all hahahaha.
[This tadpole is simply a stroke of genius. It brings tears to my eyes. The large-scale emotional program "The Tadpole Looking for Mom" takes you back to your wonderful childhood]
[Sorry, the name "Frog Eats Flies" easily makes me think of the opponent as flies]
[This killing move is also combined with Tang Bai's mechanical vines. It's really like Bulbasaur eating Cheetos and going to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. It's so amazing! ]
Tang Bai was sitting in the audience. When he saw Chris coming out of the mecha, his face turned green, just like a green-headed fly. Gu Tunan, who was standing next to him, was much more calm. Even with a green helmet on, he was still able to shake hands with Chris in a friendly manner.
The audience who randomly came across the frog dressed in green were extremely happy. They felt like they were wearing cheering uniforms and felt very involved.
The live broadcast of this competition was broadcasted by all participating countries. The Empire's broadcast, whether to save face or because they had no place to put their writing talent, gave an in-depth interpretation of the name "Lonely Frog":
"As we all know, 'Gu' and 'Gua' were the self-proclaimed names of emperors in ancient times. The seemingly casual name 'Gua' actually hides the strong confidence of the federation players who compare themselves to emperors. We can also call it 'Emperor's Frog'."
Tang Bai: “…” Forget it, as long as you are happy.
As we all know, the nutrient solution will be emptied every month, but if you give it to the author before it is emptied, you can water a cuckoo, which will not only "not lonely" and wish readers to find love, but also "not cuckoo" and update diligently.
The main story does not mention childbirth, Tangtang is just talking nonsense, the extra chapter may be about a little beauty being pregnant, the kind of cute and spoiled (?) If I write an extra chapter, I will mark
