Chapter 722: Brawl Shop
Chapter 722: Brawl Shop
The woman was wearing an off-white low-shoulder sweater and a white short skirt with elegant patterns.
The loose clothes couldn't hide her assets. It seemed that this was the first time for the woman to wear such casual women's clothes. She felt a little uncomfortable and held one hand on the other arm.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m shy or I’m insecure.
Just then a breeze blew by, the clouds moved, and the sunlight fell on her. Her naturally falling black hair was shining with the luster left by the sandalwood comb. The ends of her hair were blown up and down by the wind, sweeping out fine waves on the collar of her chiffon sweater.
There seemed to be a mist of humiliation in those scarlet eyes, and the eyelashes trembled slightly in the wind, casting a butterfly-wing-like shadow on the porcelain-white cheeks.
Facing the camera of the broadcast, the tips of her ears were dyed the rouge color of the crabapple tree.
"Yes, yes, that's right, sister, this is it!"
Blood Rain followed behind the Valkyrie with an excited expression, circling her left and right, wishing he could keep this scene privately for ten thousand years while broadcasting it live to the group of fat dragons.
Under the staring eyes of so many spectators, the Valkyrie, who was dressed like this for the first time, felt inexplicably nervous, a thousand times more nervous than when she was challenging the strongest opponent.
She subconsciously frowned her slender eyebrows, and her fingertips unconsciously fiddled with the ends of her hair hanging on her collarbone. Her sparkling eyes reflected the clouds, making the other contestants around her pale in comparison.
ding ding ding-
A series of voting prompts sounded on the big screen, and soon, the number of votes received by the Valkyrie rushed to the first place, surpassing the original first place Mirajane.
BloodRain was still surrounding the Valkyrie and taking close-ups with her special camera, ready to keep for her personal collection.
After the initial nervousness and uneasiness, the Valkyrie's gaze towards Blood Rain gradually turned cold, "Have you taken enough photos?"
"Sister...I..."
The smile on Xueyu's face froze, "I was just taking photos casually... I was just taking photos casually, that's enough!"
She quickly stood at attention and retreated behind the Valkyrie.
"It's really unexpected. I didn't expect that the Valkyrie of Mermaid Heel would appear in the end and sweep all the remaining votes to become the champion of this competition!"
As the last vote fell, the pumpkin judge read out the results of the competition.
At this moment on the big screen, the total number of votes for Valkyrie was 24903, while the second place Mirajane had 21230 votes. In the last round, Mermaid Heel's votes overtook the opponent and became the winner of this special round of competition.
Fairy Tail Team A suffered its first defeat at the guild level and is currently in third place. The guild received an extra 6 points in this round of competition.
It’s just that because they won the first two days, they now have 46 points, while the Mermaid Heel where the Valkyrie is located only got third place due to the secret on the first day, and currently has 44 points, and has not yet caught up.
As for today's individual team settlement, Lu Li Mermaid Heel gained a lot.
Including the votes from Xueyu, Valkyrie and his team received a total of 27000 votes, which is 270 points. Since they also had an economic item, it increased by 30%, so they earned 351 points in one wave.
This battle immediately reversed their previous decline. Although they couldn't catch up with Lu Li's team, they were already closely following them.
On Lu Li's side, since the explorers participating in the competition were only Black Lily and Summoner, only their votes counted. Black Lily received a total of 1300 votes and Summoner received 14700 votes, which added up to 160 points. However, because Lu Li and his team had strong economic attributes, they actually received 320 points.
In this special competition, they actually lost a small amount, which Lu Li did not expect.
Originally, he thought that the Demon Spirit should be the explorer who could score the most points, but in the end, the opponent was defeated by the non-professional Valkyrie. It can only be said that things are unpredictable.
To be fair, he also felt that in the last wave of themes, the Demon's set was not very good, and the Valkyrie's set was indeed stronger.
Although they were slightly inferior in this competition, Lu Li was not in a hurry. After all, their team had already scored a lot of points before, and currently they were still more than 200 points higher than the Valkyrie's team.
After all the companions returned to the preparation seats, they were still discussing this morning's beauty pageant with laughter, and thought that this competition organized by the organizer was very interesting.
Even though Fairy Tail lost, no one cared much about this entertaining event and they happily went to the pub to drink and dine.
On the other side, after Mermaid Heel left the stage, Blood Rain looked at the Valkyrie tremblingly, "Sister, Boss, Auntie, please listen to my explanation, haven't we won yet?"
For a while, screams were heard in the lounge.
Later, the Valkyrie came out with a bloody face and a bruised nose. "This won't happen again. By the way, send me a copy of the photos you took."
Xueyu immediately raised his drooping head, not daring to treat the wound on his face, "Okay, sister, do you want to retouch the picture?"
The Valkyrie paused and said in a low voice, "Xiu."
…………
As expected, in the afternoon's battle session, Lu Li and his team still failed to draw the Valkyrie group, but instead drew the Blue Pegasus.
Not surprisingly, Lu Li and his team were the first to go into battle and won another game.
Black Lily and the others were relieved, but Lu Li was quite dissatisfied. He seriously suspected that there was some shady manipulation in the drawing of lots in Lingxu Palace.
Although judging from the current competition system, it is possible that he will not encounter the Mermaid Heel after five days of fighting, but he feels that avoiding his desired opponent for three consecutive days is too unsuitable for his martial arts luck.
Now Lu Li can only pray that the subsequent battle rules will change, otherwise the space brawl may end before he even has time to fight the Valkyrie.
"If you ask me, Brother Lu, don't worry. The final battle in space will definitely depend on combat power."
The fat Taoist followed Lu Li and said, "Are you worried that you won't be able to meet the Valkyrie? In the end, the one with the strongest fighting power will definitely win."
"I hope so."
Lu Li nodded. He felt that what the other party said made sense.
Space will test the explorers' various abilities, but the most important one must be the hard power in combat.
Therefore, although the entertainment rules in special competitions like today can earn a lot of points, there will definitely be a game that determines the winner later.
[Dear pioneers, the Lingxu Temple Brawl Shop has been opened. If you need it, please go and check it out. ]
Lu Li heard the notification sound from the End Space, and perked up. He stopped watching the ongoing battle match, found an excuse to leave, and headed for the store designated by the space.
Black Lily and her friends also found their own reasons to leave, and it was obvious that they couldn't wait to exchange their items.
In this competition, there are some links that will deduct points. For example, the secret competition on the first day will make people's points become negative, and they can only eliminate them after a certain number of points are accumulated. In other words, the safest way for them to spend the points they have now is to spend them first.
In this way, even if they become negative points later, they will not suffer any other losses, after all, they have already spent the money.
Because of their team's winning streak, Lu Li currently has 491 personal points. Even the points on the pendant are a lot. Each person has 70 points, which can be exchanged for inheritance crystals. If it is big, it is also a huge sum of money.
Lu Li has already made up his mind that after his return this time, he will use this huge sum of money to strengthen his bloodline. Even though strengthening bloodline is ridiculously expensive now, he is rich and powerful and is not afraid at all.
The brawl shop in Lingxu Palace is located in the lounge of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Show. It is relatively hidden and has special rules. Outsiders cannot see this place, nor can they see explorers entering this area.
When Lu Li arrived, he found that many explorers had already arrived.
Although Fairy Tail and Mermaid Heel basically took up all the competitive points in the morning, a lot of votes were also distributed. Except for the two unlucky groups like Four Puppies and Crow Tail, the other groups have already cleared the secret negative scores of the first day.
Anyone who has money, no matter how much, wants to come and take a look at this so-called brawl shop.
The store is managed by a sweet-looking woman in a bartender's uniform, who should also be from Lingxu Palace. She is introducing the products to the space contestants.
Lu Li walked forward and took a look, and found that this brawl shop was extraordinary. Not only could he exchange inheritance crystals, but he could also use points to purchase all kinds of good things that he couldn't normally come across.
"Valkyrie, 300 points have been paid off. This is your Ultimate Training Ground Experience Card."
The female bartender handed a black card to the Valkyrie with a respectful gesture, just like a professional bartender you would find anywhere.
As soon as Lu Li arrived, he saw the Valkyrie making the exchange. He was stunned when he heard the name of the "Ultimate Training Ground Experience Card". He walked forward and looked at the black card in the Valkyrie's hand. He found that this was indeed the special privilege card he had obtained before.
I didn't expect that I could buy it in the brawl shop, but the price was surprisingly high, requiring 300 points, which was equivalent to inheritance crystals. It was huge, so he must have made a fortune before thinking about it, no wonder Fatty Dragon was so reluctant.
But Lu Li was puzzled as to where the Valkyrie got so many points. It was true that she had just won, but as the captain, she should have at most 250 points.
Lu Li glanced around and didn't see Xueyu, Mandragora and the others. He had an idea in his mind. It was probably the Valkyrie who asked them to transfer the points to herself first. This operation was allowed, just like the Fat Taoist also said he would transfer points to himself.
The Valkyrie put away the black card, glanced at Lu Li, and left without saying a word.
She had returned to her normal attire, acting as if this morning's match had never happened.
Lu Li retracted his gaze and looked at the Brawl Shop. He found that there was no Ultimate Training Ground Experience Card in it, so he asked, "Where is the item that the Valkyrie just exchanged?"
"I'm sorry, sir. We only have one limited edition item in our store. It will be gone after you redeem it. Why don't you take a look at other items?"
The female bartender explained respectfully.
Lu Li frowned. It turned out that he didn't run fast enough and the good stuff was exchanged by the Valkyrie first.
It seems that in this space brawl, points really cannot be saved, otherwise other teams may save enough points to take away the good things you want.
Fortunately, Lu Li discovered that there were other good things here, and he was the richest one. After the Valkyrie had spent all the things, no one could snatch them from him.
"Talent Advancement Book, this is exactly what I need. Damn it, why don't I have any points!"
"There are also good things for refining main weapons, and they are not expensive, but I just can't get them all!"
"Oh my god, God-given growth equipment? Is this true?"
"..."
A group of explorers gathered in front of the counter, drooling at the sight of the merchandise in the brawl shop, but unfortunately their wallets were empty and they couldn't afford to buy anything.
Except for the inheritance crystal, those individual items are limited to one piece, and once someone exchanges them, they will be gone.
The price of each item is not cheap, at least 50 points. Lu Li also saw things that are more expensive than the Ultimate Training Ground Experience Card.
After inspecting the items, he spotted a product and said, "I want to exchange it for the God-given book."
"Okay, the God-given book requires 200 points. Are you sure you want to buy it?"
The bartender asked politely.
"determine."
Lu Li nodded.
He read the description of the Book of God's Gift. After using it, he can choose any growth equipment he needs, including special growth equipment that is extremely difficult to obtain.
After making the selection, the Book of God's Gift will screen him and put him into the relevant world. By completing the relevant tasks, he can obtain growth equipment with God's gifted abilities.
Lu Li had just asked the bartender about the description of this divine power. The other party explained that the equipment that had been infused with potential from Lingxu Palace and the nine spaces would be easier to grow to the highest limit, and would generally be stronger than other growth equipment of the same quality.
The most important thing is that it does not give equipment directly, but instead throws people into the mission world. So if Lu Li has an adventure group, he will enter with the adventure group and receive the mission at the same time, which is equivalent to getting two sets of growth equipment.
Of course, this is somewhat limited. Only two people at most can accept the task. Otherwise, if a super large adventure group gets it, they will be invincible.
As for why the equipment was not given directly to him, but he had to complete tasks before obtaining it, the bartender explained that the quality of the infusion and the specific characteristics of the equipment would be determined based on how well he completed the tasks.
Simply put, the task process is actually a process of "building" exclusive growth equipment for him, and his own participation will lead to a higher degree of matching.
After exchanging this limited edition item, Lu Li did not rush to buy other things, but exchanged the remaining points for inheritance crystals. Big. He wanted to use these inheritance crystals. Big to place bets in the group.
After the space brawl began, Lu Li realized that he had only bet 27 inheritance crystals. He was too stingy. These inheritance crystals were not enough to strengthen a person's bloodline half way. If he wanted to play, he would play big and continue to go all in.
After several days of fighting, the odds between him and the Valkyrie seem to have stabilized at 2:1. If he wins, he can earn double the money!
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Lu Li left the brawl shop and returned to the main venue.
Unexpectedly, the draw for this battle happened to be Mermaid Heel and Sword-Bite Tiger, and today's rules are single-player battles.
Silk Stocking Milk Tea walked straight out in the direction of the Sword-Bite Tiger, and looked at the Valkyrie who stood up from the platform with a serious expression.
Lu Li looked at the arena with interest, hoping to see the Valkyrie officially take action in this battle.
