Merlin's remark caused surprise among the school directors, who were completely unable to understand the reason for turning a competition that encouraged students to improve each other into a fight to the death.The original intention of the competition was to arouse the desire of students to improve their personal strength, and they were ultimately academic, not the barbaric Colosseum.The weight of the word deathmatch was like a heavy boulder pressing on the hearts of everyone present, but looking at Merlin's expression, his seriousness showed that Merlin was not joking.Proposing a deathmatch must be the result of careful consideration.The school trustees looked at each other, and finally one of the most senior elders asked, "I wonder why you are doing this, Lord Chancellor?"
”Merlin nodded slightly, this question was expected, but the actual reason was a little difficult to say.After a little thought, he softened his sharp words, and then opened his mouth and said, "I want an occasion where the world can see a person clearly." ”The school directors were silent, but they naturally understood Merlin's voice.Merlin wants to kill someone, but because of his identity, he can't do it himself."
Children, after all, are innocent."
The most senior old man stroked the beard that fell from his chin and shook his head softly."
I know, so this time it's not going to be mandatory as it used to be.Participation will be voluntary, but each child will be required to sign a life and death certificate.Although they are young, they are all adults.I'm sure they'll weigh the risks themselves," Merlin nodded, then spoke his mind, "Also, due to a temporary change to the format, I'll be taking some pieces from my collection as a reward for the winners." ”"There must be hanging fish under the bait, and there must be a brave man under the heavy reward?"
The old man said to himself, "Not necessarily, but can the casualty rate be controlled?"
If the casualty rate is too high, it will be difficult for us, as the school and the organizer, to explain to the parents.Merlin, you know, especially the old-fashioned aristocratic minds.They value the lives of their heirs more than anything else. ”Merlin bowed his head and promised, "Don't worry, I'll keep the best medical team on the sidelines of the field."
If he hadn't been killed on the spot, he would have been able to save him with the rest of his breath.In addition, the old decay will naturally be present to supervise. ”When the old man heard this, he naturally nodded in agreement, but he asked something that the school directors had hidden in their hearts but did not have the courage to ask, "This is the best, but Merlin, who do you want to die?"
”Merlin did not answer, but glanced at the old man meaningfully.The hairs on the old man's body suddenly stood on end, and he felt that he had asked a question that he should not have asked.He hurriedly waved his hand and said very quickly, "Forget it, I don't want to know."
Don't tell me, don't worry about it. ”"Very good, old Potter.There are some things that you don't want to know. ”Merlin said with a smile as he looked around.The hearts of the school directors trembled, and although Merlin smiled, the threat in his words was clear.As soon as these old foxes heard this, they all expressed their approval of Merlin's idea, and they would come out to watch the game when the time came, and then everyone left the field on their own under Merlin's instructions.Merlin was left alone in the huge conference room at this time, and the projections of the school directors had already dissipated.Merlin looked at the empty conference room and said to himself, "If you don't put on this aggressive posture and do such a deceitful thing, how can I be so murderous?"
”With that, he shook his head slightly, erasing the last trace of kindness and hope from his mind, and scribbled on the blank paper, completing the stage he had designed for Arthur.This will be the stage where Arthur's true form will be revealed, and the stage where everyone can see Arthur's ugly face.———— "Hull, make a cup of hot tea." ”Arthur was in his study writing about his plans for the next three months.The long hours of copywriting made him feel parched, and he unconsciously shouted according to his daily habits.When he came back to his senses, Arthur laughed self-deprecatingly, "It's still a little unaccustomed to it for a while." ”With that, he stood up and walked to the window.He looked at the hip-hop students on the lawn outside the window, and he stretched out his hand and shook it weakly, "You are all under my control, but you don't know."
Ignorant, pitiful, and pathetic people. ”Just as he was indulging in his own fantasies, there was a knock on his door."
Bang Tie Bang."
Arthur didn't turn around, but just dropped his hands naturally at his sides and called out softly, "Come in." ”The person who came was a minor cadre who had been temporarily promoted to replace Hull's vice-president, but ironically, Arthur never remembered his name.The little cadre respectfully bent down and bowed to Arthur, but there was a hint of panic on his face.Arthur was keenly aware of this, and took the initiative to ask, "Any surprises?"
”The little cadre was about to speak, but he was a little stunned when Arthur asked him first.After a moment, the little cadre said, "Report to Lord Arthur, this is the latest ranking competition schedule announced by the school, please take a look." ”With that, the little cadre took out a rolled-up announcement copy from the pocket of his coat."
Oh?
It's not always been the same way, so what else can we change this year?
”Arthur calmly reached over and took the announcement handed over by the little cadre, but the little cadre's expression at this time can only be described as very exciting.Arthur slowly spread out the announcement, but the words "announcement" in the eye used bright red paint and bold font to catch people's eyes.In the past, announcements were mainly black and white, and in rare emergencies or dangerous tasks, they were printed in bright red paint.Arthur certainly understood what this meant.The more he looked closely, the more his pupils contracted.He read the proclamation signed by Merlin with bated breath, then exhaled a deep breath.A smile appeared on his delicate face."
It's so interesting."
Arthur said with emotion."
Yes, this announcement has become the latest topic of conversation in the whole school.Many people say that Principal Merlin is crazy, and many people are gearing up to compete for the temporary increase in rewards for this tournament.At present, it is known that the participants are the best in each department, and I think that the scale of this competition will far exceed the previous precedent.The school office also gave us new guidelines for the staff who built the site. ”The small cadre reported honestly.He told Arthur what he knew so far, and then made an equally enthusiastic expression."
Who, what do you think is the highlight of this competition?"
Arthur asked, unconcerned, as he brought his right hand to his mouth and gently bit the nail of his thumb.This small gesture symbolizes his excitement."
Well, I think it's a scene where the players do their best to compete in the arena."
The little cadre didn't care that Arthur didn't remember his name, and he was a little clever and naturally wouldn't be bored with such small details."
No, it's the bloom of death, and the baptism of blood."
With that, Arthur turned his back to the little cadre and bit through the epidermis at the tip of his thumb.Traces of inconspicuous blood flowed from his fingertips, and Arthur's tongue skipped over his fingertips with wet saliva, and the blood on the tip of his tongue with a little rust and fishy smell made Arthur involuntarily feel extremely excited.More than anyone else, he looked forward to this feast where he could kill openly, he longed for killing, he longed for blood, he longed to show the world how powerful he was.When the time comes, he will use the most brutal means to torture his opponents.His opponent will be hit both mentally and psychologically, and his opponent's wails and screams will become fodder for fear.Arthur wants to show the world his invincibility on this stage.All people will fear themselves and thus respect themselves because of the fear in their hearts.They will no longer be respected because they belong to the heir to the king, and their respect at that time will be completely respected because they have been conquered by themselves.Arthur had even imagined what it would be like to be the uncrowned king at Miskatonik University.The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.He drove away the unknown minor cadres and walked alone to the secret passage hidden in the chairman's room.There are his heirloom matching swords, his special armor, and his secrets.———— Colombia and Jobuterrand finally breathed fresh, free air once again after they recovered.They no longer have to stay in the infirmary, where the smell of smoke and medicine mixes, staring at the same ceiling every day.Before leaving, they said goodbye to Jack, the school doctor who took care of them, and sincerely thanked him.Jack only waved his hand, but he said earnestly, "Don't let me see you again, I'm not a good place for some pretty flower girls." ”Naturally, Tub Tron couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, but Colombia blushed strangely, "No, no, no, this is where I met Serena's mentor, and this is also the place where I really witnessed her charm." ”When Jo Buterron heard this, he looked like he had seen a ghost, and patted Colombia on the shoulder, "Brother, do you want to check again?"
”Jack had such an expression on his face, and he took a cigarette impatiently, "This is his heart, and the mirror ghost magnifies his heart."
Actually, he's healthier than you now.Hell knows what else you kid has in his body. ”Hearing this, Colombia lowered his head and said hehe.Presumably, Colombia saw the fact that he liked Serena and faced it honestly.Chobuterrand spread his hands indifferently, "Yiduo is not pressing, and he is gone." ”The two were about to walk away, when Jack said coldly, "Do you remember the contents of the report?"
”Colombia was stunned, apparently not knowing what Jack was talking about, but Jobbuterrand didn't look back, his right hand clenched into a fist.Watching the two gradually walk away, Jack said with emotion, "It's good to be young." ”———— the two of them were naturally on their way back to the dormitory when they heard the big event that the students were talking about - the announcement of the new competition.Colombia, who loves to join in the fun, did not miss such a topical event, he took one and handed it to Jote Brown, who was 100 percent able to compete.The two sat casually in the lounge, Jot Brown sipping tea while Columbia read the rules of the tournament one by one."
First, this year's qualifying competition will be voluntary, and all participants can register through their ID cards.Note: At the same time of registration, you need to submit a copy of the life and death certificate, and the life and death certificate form can be obtained at the school office.Second, in order to motivate the students to participate, Principal Merlin will provide the top 500 contestants with a chance to visit his personal treasury, and the top 10 contestants will be rewarded with a collection of their choice in order of ranking.Note: The original credit reward mechanism still exists, and will even double the reward for players.Third, signing a life and death certificate does not mean that the winner needs to be decided by life and death.If the player is physically exhausted or injured too much, he can take the initiative to shout surrender or admit defeat, and the other team must not continue to attack when the opponent surrenders, otherwise it will be punished.Note: Guests such as the school doctor and the Bishop of the Holy Light will be set up outside the stadium to heal the injured players.Fourth, the first round will be played in Smash Bros. mode, and only those who are still standing after the hourglass fall will be eligible for the next round.Note: Although the school does not encourage team fighting, being able to form a team is also a part of individual strength.Fifth, after the Smash Bros. knockout round, there will be an individual defense match.Before the start of the tournament, the contestants will be given a random ring ID code through the student card, and there will be a total of eight rings.Players will be given the responsibility of attacking and defending separately, and the detailed rules will be announced at the time of the tournament.Sixthly, the members of the school board will watch the whole game, and the outstanding players will have the opportunity to be promoted to the team members by the school manager, and the future development is promising.Advice: Do what you can. ”As he listened, Jobutran tapped his fingers on the wooden tabletop, which rattled.When Columbia finished talking about the basic rules of the tournament, Columbia looked at Jobputrean, only to find that Jobputran had poked a small hole in the table.Colombia raised an eyebrow, "What do you think?"
”"The old man's handwriting, and the blood cost."
Jobuterrand said the first thing, and then the next sentence surprised Colombia, "Inform everyone around us that we can't go to this tournament." ”"Huh?
Havard's timid personality aside, you let that impulsive stupid big man give up the chance to show himself?
”Colombia asked, puzzled."
Well, it has to be abandoned."
Jobbuterrand replied seriously, "It's not a game, it's a meat grinder." ”Colombia scratched his head and laid the announcement flat on the table, "Isn't there a medical team there?"
And the school board is watching, can't too many people die, right?
”When Jot Brown heard this, he looked Columbia in the eye without saying a word, and said word by word, "A lot of people will die."
Those who do not measure themselves, those who are lucky, and those who speculate.This is not something that ordinary people can stir up at all, according to Falk's three-legged cat kung fu, he will come out sideways in the first round. ”"What about you..."
Colombia asked, somewhat worried."
I'm definitely going."
