Chapter 59: Arrive at Bird Capital
A few days later.
In the past week or so, the news has continued to report on the Dark Duelist attack, and disclosed the results of the Huajiang City Duelist Branch's secret sweeping operation.
Brilliant results.
At least twenty hidden Dark Duelists were dug up.
All the dark duelists who were caught were without exception, sentenced to death, and some died at the hands of branch members while resisting arrest.
This made netizens lament the strength of the duelist members of the branch, and they don't know how to find those dark duelists.
The Jiangcheng incident has temporarily come to an end, and it has also sounded the alarm for the whole country. Branches across the country have secretly taken corresponding prevention and control measures.
There were also those who tried their best to sweep, but there were very few dark duelists caught. I don't know if these people were concentrated in Jiangcheng, or if they didn't dare to appear again after hearing the news.
At the same time that this incident caused a lot of uproar, the upcoming graduation cup also attracted widespread attention.
The Graduation Cup has always been a practice. Every year, many cities are happy to hold such an event. The prize money is not much, but it can bring good attention and traffic to the city.
This year, of course, is no exception.
Thirteen cities have decided to host the graduation cup.
Among the competitions held in these thirteen cities, the most eye-catching is the Bird Capital.
This is the sixth largest international city in dueling strength, and it is also a national economic center city, where card culture is prevalent.
The number of duelists is second only to the Imperial Capital and the Demonic Capital.
As for the Imperial Capital and the Demonic Capital, the ranking of the dueling cities took the top two.
As usual, neither the Imperial City nor the Magic City has any news of holding a graduation cup this year.
This is also normal. These two cities, whose duel rankings are unstoppable, hardly ever hold such graduation-stage events.
Often, national duel city competitions will be located in these two cities.
Birds hold graduation cups, which are rare, big news!
Naturally, the news about the Bird Capital Graduation Cup has spread all over the Internet and won widespread attention and discussion.
…
Early in the morning, Lin You yawned and went out.
No way, who told Liu Jun to book the flight to take off at 6:30.
It was quite early, but a lot of people had already arrived at the airport.
Obviously, in Jiangcheng, there are far more students who have the idea of joining in the fun than Lin You and the other two.
It's a bunch of them!
In this large group of students, there are birds that go with them, and many people go to other cities.
All in all, very lively.
On the way here, Lin You took a special look and saw some acquaintances.
There are a few students in the dueling department of this school, and he barely has an impression.
As for the dueling class, they saw Hu Yu.
Lin You originally planned to go up to say hello, but this guy seemed to notice him too, like a mouse seeing a cat, pretending not to see it in a panic, and dodging to the side.
It seemed to cast a shadow over him.
Lin You also dismissed this idea.
First, I went to print a boarding pass, and not long after that, I found Liu Jun in the airport lobby.
Seeing Lin You empty-handed, Liu Jun said in surprise, "Lin You, you just came here?"
"small issue."
Lin You also knew what Liu Jun meant and said indifferently: "It's not just a few changes of clothes, just buy them when you go to the place, anyway, there is no shortage of time, anyway, if you go out for a trip, it is impossible to be bored in the hotel every day except for the game. It’s also just a matter of saving the consignment.”
"Fine."
Liu Jun nodded, his luggage had been checked in in advance, "It's almost time, let's go."
After a while, the two who passed the security check entered the waiting hall and waited on the chairs near the boarding gate.
In a few minutes, the check-in will take off.
During the waiting period, Lin You looked around for a long time, but didn't see any acquaintances.
This is also normal. Although the scale of the graduation cup is not small, there are many people who do not have the will to play cross-city competitions. If it is held locally in Jiangcheng, I am afraid they will go to join in the fun.
For the graduation cup held by Bird Capital, there are undoubtedly the most local contestants, and the quality is often the strongest.
Soon, the two lined up to check tickets and boarded the plane through a corridor.
After finding the corresponding position, Lin You yawned and said, "Niu son, I'll take a nap. Call me when I get to the ground."
When he nodded, Lin You closed his eyes and fell asleep not long after.
Wuhu~
The plane took off.
…
More than two hours later, the plane arrived at Bird Capital.
Before reaching the ground, Lin You woke up.
After leaving the airport, the two stopped a taxi directly, and the destination was the Flying Bird International Hotel.
It sounds very grand, but in fact it is not as good as imagined. It belongs to the unstarred hotel, but the construction standard is built according to the four-star.
This hotel, which belongs to the affiliated industry of the organizer of the Bird Capital Graduation Cup, is closed to the outside world this time. It is specially prepared for the majority of contestants. With the entry code, check-in is free.
There are several similar hotels around, and they are also reserved for players.
If the players can break into the main game, they can also upgrade the hotel and go to another five-star hotel, and the stay is also free.
Lin You didn't care about this difference, as long as the living environment wasn't bad, it was already pretty good.
According to the introduction of the competition guide, there is a large-scale dueling hall with a special supporting facility, which is also prepared for the players.
Before the competition day, players can go to the dueling hall to play if they have the idea of warming up.
Looking along the street between the vehicles, it should be said that it is the capital of birds. In less than ten minutes, Lin You saw at least three or four dueling halls.
There are many high-rise buildings, and the bustling dueling commercial city and card stores are dazzling.
On the street, you can also see many young ladies wearing card-related costumes posing for photos on the street.
The engine sound of the car is intertwined with the main theme of the city's card culture, all of which are addictive.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Asuka Hotel.
After scanning the QR code to check out, and getting out of the car, Lin You found that there were a lot of people gathered around. The revolving door of the hotel continued to operate, people came in and out, and there were quite a lot of contestants.
But the vast majority of the players are similar to Liu Jun. They have certain strengths, but they are basically the fate of a round trip. They come here purely to join in the fun, and experience the charm of the dueling metropolis of Bird Capital.
"Let's go, check in first."
Lin You left a sentence, walked in front, Liu Jun followed, and the two quickly passed through the revolving door.
I found a front desk with fewer people and queued up. There were more people in the queue, but I didn't have to worry about the room being full.
Because Lin You and the others signed up early, the room was also booked in advance. Go to the hotel, make a registration, and get the reserved room card.
As for the contestants who signed up late, it was more tragic, and they had to spend their own money to solve the accommodation problem.
Of course, if you can make it to the main competition, you will not have to worry about accommodation. Even in the last knockout stage, the number of places is very limited, with only 128 people.
And the number of contestants is at least several thousand, which is the result of deliberately controlling the contest conditions.
The conditions for the competition are relatively harsh, requiring the contestants to reach 115 points of magic power, which has shut out many people who are interested in participating.
Liu Jun's talent is actually not bad, he can't get into the dueling class, but he is above the level of the sixth class.
After all, Ganghwa High School is also a high school for dueling subjects. Liu Jun, who can be in the middle of the class, successfully reached 120 magic points when he graduated.
Work hard this holiday, and even hope to apply for Jiangcheng University.
However, applying for the exam and actually taking the exam are two completely different concepts.
But anyway, Liu Jun is qualified to join in the fun.
The number of people in front of the team gradually decreased. At this time, it was finally Lin You's turn.
"Hello, this gentleman, please show your ID card."
The voice of the lady at the front desk was quite pleasant, but when she took the ID card handed over by Lin You, her eyes were slightly stagnant, and then she quickly looked up at him, then lowered her head a little shyly, and hurriedly dealt with the registration matters.
Handsome, so handsome.
After doing reception work for so long, the young lady has seen a bunch of handsome guys, but there is not one of them. She can't help feeling a heartbeat just by looking at each other inadvertently.
With a little panic in her movements, she quickly went through the registration procedures. When the young lady handed out the room card, she didn't dare to look Lin You's eyes squarely. It wasn't until Liu Jun came to register that the deer, who was rambling in her heart, calmed down.
…
According to the room card number, Lin You and the two took the elevator to the seventh floor. Their room numbers were 8705 and 8706, and they were connected together, which was very convenient.
"Lin You, what are your plans for today?"
In the elevator, Liu Jun asked excitedly.
He seldom travels this far, and he rarely visits Bird Capital. He is deeply influenced by the dueling culture here, and he can't wait to rush to the street immediately to invite people to fight for a fight, showing the majesty of his beast warrior group!
Lin You didn't even think about it and said, "Rest now, UU reading www.uukanshu.com flying this trip is really tiring."
"Isn't it?"
Liu Jun widened his eyes in disbelief, "This is Bird Capital, you don't have any activity plans?"
"plan?"
Lin You said without hesitation, "I heard that the hotel offers a free buffet, so you can have a meal at noon."
"…"
The elevator arrived, and Liu Jun, who got out of the elevator, was speechless.
"but…"
Lin You thought about it for a while, and then said, "Isn't there a matching dueling hall across the street? It's crowded at night, so let's have a look? I heard that it is only for contestants, so no reservation is required."
"Lin You, you finally said something human."
"Screw you."
Lin You gave Liu Jun a punch, and the two of them swiped their cards and entered their respective rooms.
Back in the room, Lin You walked to the bed and lay down.
Big and soft.
This bed is nice.
With a comment in his heart, Lin You took out his mobile phone and landed on the exclusive webpage of this Magic City Graduation Cup.
The qualifiers will officially start tomorrow. According to the rules of the competition, each contestant will have a duel in the morning and afternoon.
Play twice a day.
The opponents in the duel have already been systematically matched in advance.
Matching is random, but contestants whose total magic power is more than 180 points will not participate in the matching for the time being, which is a protection mechanism.
Lin You's current magic power is 166 points, which is an increase of 1 point compared to the day of the graduation ceremony, but it still cannot reach 180 points, which is the standard for a temporary bye.
And this match will be carried out ahead of schedule, on July 9th, which is today.
The results will be announced at 9:30 in the morning.
Lin You planned to check first to see who the opponent in the first battle would be.
