Free Web NovelChapter 1154: Chapter 443 Massive Brawl_2
And there was actually a fair number of people, about twenty.
He even saw the avatars of Grace Spring and Creaky Bones.
Grace Spring, that guy, must have been bored during the off-season and came in for a look.
Creaky Bones was a friend he had made during his first Administrator concentrated training session and was also one of the very first Administrators.
At that time, the first batch of Administrators was selected from the combatants within The Major District.
According to Creaky Bones’ self-introduction, she was a City Competition player from the Berserk Major District.
However, as he observed later, she didn’t seem to make it into the Berserk Representative Team.
He sent invitations to all the individuals without a power base.
And he also attached a special message for both Grace Spring and Creaky Bones.
...
At the other end of the Buffer Zone, Grace Spring and Creaky Bones formed an unexpectedly paired combination.
At this time, the power region they were in was called Great Harvest Village.
Each power’s naming was different, to become a member of Great Harvest Village meant becoming a villager.
Now they were undergoing the assessment to become villagers.
The assessment was divided into three stages; Grace Spring took the assessment first and had already passed the first stage.
"Please listen to the question."
A young lady holding a booklet stood in front of him, "Xiao Ming’s older brother is called Da Huang, and Xiao Ming’s younger brother is called Wu Huang.
Xiao Ming’s older sister is called Er Huang, and Xiao Ming’s younger sister is called Si Huang.
Please answer..."
"Hahaha! I know this one, Xiao Ming is just called Xiao Ming!"
Grace Spring clapped his hands, eagerly answering first.
Who would have thought that an admission assessment for a power would turn out to be a brain teaser?
It seems likely that the Divine Deity managing this place had a particular fondness for this sort of thing.
"Sorry, but your rapid answer is incorrect.
The question for this problem is how many words are there in total in the problem.
You have failed, come back tomorrow."
The examiner expressed regretfully.
"Damn it! I was so close!"
Grace Spring lamented, thumping his leg.
"..."
Creaky Bones was speechless with powerlessness.
Anyway, she had no intention of taking the assessment. Whether it was Grace Spring or this power, neither seemed very reliable.
[Ding Dong!]
Just at that moment, a panel prompt popped up in front of both of them.
"Oh?"x2
After browsing the information on the panel, they looked at each other.
"Did you get it too?"
"Mhm."
"It looks like..."
But before Grace Spring could finish, Creaky Bones vanished on the spot with a flash of light.
Not to be outdone, he immediately clicked the "Confirm Join" option.
...
Hum! Hum! Hum!
Ree Shil watched as figures, one after another, teleported right ahead of him.
These were all the individuals without a territory who had confirmed joining.
"Ohhh!"
Once Grace Spring had landed, he immediately looked around excitedly.
The sudden invitation had piqued everyone’s curiosity.
The unaffiliated individuals present were Administrators who had just re-entered the Buffer Zone not long ago.
They were not too familiar with everything.
"Greetings, Administrators, good to see everyone."
The Red Rock Substitute had already retaken the role of the Butler and began explaining the situation to them.
As for Grace Spring and Creaky Bones, Ree Shil recounted the details personally.
"So what are your plans next?"
Grace Spring had intended to say that the next round of competition wasn’t far off.
But after glancing at Creaky Bones, he held back the remark.
"Give it a rest, you two have been the center of attention recently, did you think I wouldn’t know?"
Creaky Bones had long recognized their card decks and immediately identified them from the outset.
But she wasn’t such a gossip, and hadn’t even mentioned to anyone that she knew the two.
"Well, the main purpose of this territory is just to accumulate points.
I’m planning on leaving it to you to manage."
Saying this, Ree Shil elevated Creaky Bones’ privileges to the level of deputy president.
Due to her Administrator status, she also gained a portion of the automatic Score growth.
Of course, the increment rate definitely wasn’t as high as Ree Shil’s.
"As for me, aside from competing, I also plan on visiting other territories."
More than the daily automatic point increase, Ree Shil wanted more.
"Oh?!
When the time comes, take me with you, I want to join in on the fun too!"
Grace Spring naturally knew what he wanted.
This guy wanted to challenge other Power Masters and earn a large sum of points all at once.
"Hehe, then I’ll stay and help you manage things,"
"Since I have nothing much to do lately anyway."
Creaky Bones chuckled.
"That... sir."
Just then, the Red Rock Substitute came over.
"Do you think it’s time to give our force a new name?"
He hadn’t forgotten about this matter.
"Oh, you’re right."
Ree Shil only then remembered there indeed was such a matter.
So he reopened the Panel. freewebnøvel.com
The section for the name of the force was still blank.
"What would be a good name?"
He looked towards the three of them.
Grace Spring: "Healing is DPS."
Creaky Bones: "Bone Continent."
Red Rock Substitute: "Whatever you decide is fine."
Three people, three different opinions, all of the kind you could ignore.
"In that case..."
Ree Shil had his own idea: "Although Red Rock Senior has left, we must inherit its spirit."
"..."
The face of the Red Rock Substitute looked a bit strained.
His words made it sound as if the God of Red Rock had passed away.
"Add a bit of my flavor to it, and let’s call it Mushroom Club."
With that, Ree Shil decided.
Red Rock Substitute: "Where is the inheritance of Red Rock’s spirit in this!"
Grace Spring: "Where is your flavor in it?"
Creaky Bones: "What a terrible name, is it too late to quit the club now."
...
Ree Shil didn’t have any experience in managing an organization.
But he had accumulated a considerable experience in slacking off at the Showcase Club.
Therefore, he entrusted all the trivial matters of the new force to Creaky Bones and the Red Rock Substitute.
For more important matters, he left them to trustworthy Creaky Bones for decisions.
Then, he and Grace Spring left the Buffer Zone to return to reality.
The next round of competition was approaching.
This time they were still using the normal Card Game mode with no special mechanisms involved in the card aspect.
However, it was a Horizontal 3+1 Card Game with a very low margin for error.
Under such a card game, Ree Shil felt that even considering himself as one of the top players in this session, there was still a significant chance of a setback.
Too bad it wasn’t a Vertical 3+1; otherwise, "Flawless Galaxy" would be invincible.
He had played a Horizontal 3+1 Card Game in the Rising Star Cup before.
Even if there were only 1 line of Regular cards, it would still be a full reveal of first row cards at the start.
Under such circumstances, the coordination among 3 cards, even 4 cards, was of great importance.
Strategies like Opening Aggressive Style, such as Wisdom Card and Berserker Card which could only play a round, were quite popular.
Complex tactics like Grace Spring’s, which required a big healer + strong cards + slow DPS cards, couldn’t be well executed.
Because complex tactics needed more cards, more core cards to be implemented.
3+1, there’s no room for that.
So deciding who to send from the team to the Card Table, and what card deck to use if one was chosen, was something worth thinking over carefully.
Additionally, this round called for each Team to send 6 players.
Then, there were no special rules on the Card Table, but the competition format was quite special.
This round, they referred to it as a brawl game.
What is meant by a brawl game, is that 6 teams, a total of 36 players, would all compete simultaneously.
Erase all codes, erase all appearances, all silenced.
Then on the field, they would spontaneously pair up and engage in Card Game duels.
And with no way of communicating, Teammates wouldn’t recognize each other and might unwittingly eliminate one another.
In the end, the order in which the 6 people are eliminated will decide the Team Score.
In other words, even if Ree Shil survived to the end by himself but his Teammates were eliminated early on, then the Score for the Balance Representative Team wouldn’t be high either.
Facing such a format, the Balance Representative Team internally decided to conduct a half-day of simulated real combat.
That is to follow the rules of this round strictly for player selection.
Because the Card Game would be completely sealed by a barrier, other competing Players would not be able to see what happens.
This meant that players who were good with the Three-Axe Strategy using only a few cards would be very precious.
Under this premise, the 4 card deck that Ree Shil hastily put together couldn’t achieve a total victory even within his team.
He was chosen only as the third-place finisher.
Unexpectedly, Grace Spring, with a never-before-used non-turtle Healing deck, secured the sixth slot for qualification.
Thus, the six members of the Balance Representative Team were confirmed.
Ree Shil, Grace Spring, and the youngster from the Lashes were all on the list.
