Chapter 246 Can God Bleed?(1/3)
Night falls.
The open-air arena is like a huge bird's nest, with white searchlight beams shooting out of it.
The square was crowded with people, and the guardrail of the entrance passage went around and around. The crowd suddenly started to stir, and a giant airship was passing overhead.
A searchlight beam illuminates the airship. An LED screen hangs on the side of the airship, and the promotional MV for tonight's game is playing on the screen.
There is a pyramid standing on the desert, with the spire facing the bright sun. Anubis in the mural is holding a scepter, and the eyes on the jackal's head shine brightly.
When the camera turned, the moonlight was bright, and Buster, a cat-headed man, had his arms folded in front of his chest.
The camera zoomed out, and a dashing girl in red stood in front of Buster, with one hand on her hip and her high horse tail swaying in the wind.
On the red side, Jolina Jones, represents Sharo Nation.
The MV screen freezes for a moment and falls into darkness. A sword is pulled out from its sheath. The bright light of the sword illuminates the colorful falling cherry blossoms. The cherry blossoms float to a cup of sake, and ripples appear on the surface of the wine.
A slender hand was raised and handed to the alluring red lips.
The woman was wearing a traditional Ukizakura costume, her chest was undulating, her black hair was tied behind her head with a gold hairpin, and the formidable Kusanagi sword was placed on her knees.
Blue side, Tachibana Chimitsu, represents Ukikura Kingdom.
Although she acted gentle and pleasant, the cold light in Tachibana Qianguang's eyes made people shudder through the screen.
She once used thunderous means to kill daimyo who attempted to rebel, and her skill in being able to secure Ukikura's throne as a woman is evident.
In the eyes of the world, Jolina on the red side is like a dark horse who suddenly appeared, and her past is unclear.
Therefore, the support rate of both parties before the game reached 30-70, with Chimitsu Tachibana leading by a huge advantage.
There were more and more spectators in the open-air arena, and the seats were gradually filled. Sigrid walked down the stairs holding two large buckets of popcorn.
"Hurry up, Raven, Lin has prepared a position in front for us!"
Chu Yun put one hand in his pocket, restrained the desire to take out the cigarette case, followed behind, and said:
"Have you finished eating?"
Sigrid was like an alert hamster: "These two buckets are mine. If you want to eat, just buy them yourself."
"I don't intend to compete with you." Chu Yun said, "I just don't want to keep my mouth idle."
"Hmm...Okay, but you should eat less, because popcorn has no nutrition." The little secretary looked convinced.
You have no right to say this...Chu Yun restrained his desire to complain and found a seat in the front row to sit down, with an unobstructed view of the green field.
When the field card is unfolded, the green field will transform into another scene, and protective shields will be raised around the stands to prevent spectators from being accidentally injured by the aftermath of the showdown.
The atmosphere in the stadium was noisy and lively. Chu Yun was not used to this kind of situation, but several games related to Lin Xiao were also watched this way.
Moreover, the popularity of the epee man is much higher than that of both sides in this game.
"Speaking of which, Jolina actually represented Saran in the World Championships. That's amazing!" Sigrid said with a popcorn bucket on her knees.
Chu Yun adjusted his sitting posture and crossed his arms.
"She must have experienced a cruel adventure in Sharo. After all..." Chu Yun said solemnly: "The eyes of the gods will only be on the warriors who break out of the siege."
In the luxurious box, fruit snacks were placed on the coffee table in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. Jiang Shang, as the host, was chatting with Ms. Foote, the representative of the Salo Alliance.
"This year's representative player of Salo surprised everyone." Jiang Shang looked out the window at the venue.
"Honestly, this is the choice of the Sharo gods." Ford said calmly, "When the girl first appeared, the cat god Buster was accompanying her, which really shocked everyone."
"I remember that Buster had a very high status in Sharo. Is that right?" Jiang Shang asked curiously.
"Yes." Ford said, "Although he is not one of the nine pillar gods, Buster has a very high reputation in the hearts of the people of Sharo. He is the patron saint of the family and has the ability to distinguish good from evil."
"She chose this girl, and Jolina did indeed kill the leader of the Card Faller organization." Ford picked up the black tea, and the wrinkles on the corners of her mouth raised when she smiled: "She does have the qualifications to become the new flag of Sharo
.”
"The Sharo Alliance also provided her with a lot of help, right?" Jiang Shang said.
Ford was noncommittal: "To be precise, Sharo believes in Buster and is willing to follow God's will."
Jiang Shang nodded slightly.
From his perspective.
"Amaterasu" Tachibana Senko, although she does not have a complete deck system like Jolina, she has the blood of a true god flowing in her body.
If it weren't for that monster Lin Xiao, he would be far ahead of everyone else and take the lead in spying on the ninth level law.
Tachibana Qianguang, who has the blood of gods, probably has an advantage over any card master from other countries on the road to becoming a god.
‘The envoy of Ra, is it against the Amaterasu bloodline...’ Jiang Shang’s eyes flickered.
Jiang Shang did not dare to judge the outcome, but selfishly he still hoped that Representative Sharo would win. After all, Qiao Linna was half of his own family.
Players lounge.
"Don't be nervous." Lin Xiao stood and handed over a bottle of mineral water, "Here, drink some water."
Jolina sat on the bench under the locker, reached out and took the mineral water, and said: "Are you the coach?"
"I can be you if you need me," Lin Xiao said with a smile.
"Hmph...you have a more important use." Qiao Linna unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to Lin Xiao, "Well, I won't drink it."
"What's the purpose?" Lin Xiao took the mineral water, "I'll avenge you after you lose?"
"I said, can't you hope that I win?" Jolina laughed angrily.
"Emotionally I hope you win, but analytically, Tachibana Qianguang has a greater chance of winning, so if you can't win, I'll give up..."
Lin Xiao paused and said, "I mainly don't want you to get hurt."
"You know, fighting always hurts, so this sentence is meaningless."
Qiao Linna stood up, looked at Lin Xiao almost face to face, raised her gaze, and said: "But I will remember your words... remember that someone is waiting for me."
Lin Xiao also knew that it was impossible to persuade her to abstain, so she smiled helplessly: "Come on."
"Tch, you are so unsure of me." Jolina said, "Give me your hand."
Lin Xiao stretched out his left hand.
"Right hand." Jolina said.
The fire in the palm of Lin Xiao's right hand was like a cluster of dark flames, shining brightly.
Another small hand quietly covered it, and the golden fire and the dark flame overlapped, like a dialogue and blending of two ideas.
The fingers of their right hands were intertwined.
Jolina pretended to be a sheep and said calmly: "Can you see my rank clearly?"
"The peak of the seventh level." Lin Xiao said.
"What now?" Jolina mobilized the Tarot card "Power" in the fire.
Her hands were soft and strong, and a new source of power was brewing in the fire, temporarily raising her level to eighth level.
The corner of Lin Xiao's mouth raised slightly: "It's still far behind me, but... it's enough for the field of use."
"How much confidence do you have in me?" Jolina asked sideways.
"Coach, I'm very satisfied." Lin Xiao still held her hand and said vowedly: "Go ahead and come back with a beautiful victory."
Jolina smiled lightly: "Yes, Mon amour. (my love)"
"What?"
"What the coach meant."
Jolina calmly let go of her hand and walked towards the exit of the lounge.
The cheers in the stadium gradually became real. The girl with a high ponytail stood in the shadow of the players' tunnel. One step forward was the bright light.
She turned around and looked back, and saw the black-haired young man standing in the shadows, crossing his arms and nodding encouragingly.
A bright smile rose at the corner of Jolina's mouth. She quickly put away her smile, and walked towards the venue with a hint of edge in the red child.
The fans cheered enthusiastically and the audience started talking.
"Jolina!
"Sara's players are actually quite beautiful." "Can you win? Opposite is Ukikura's Hikaru."
The girl in red clothes stood on one side of the venue, with a thin sword hanging from her waist. The spotlight illuminated her neat high ponytail and delicate and tall profile.
The noise in her ears gradually disappeared, and Jolina's eyes were extremely focused, staring at the figure walking out of the opposite passage.
She was a graceful and regal queen, with waterfall-like black hair braided into a bun, and pale red makeup at the corners of her eyes. Although she was beautiful and tempting, she gave people a strong sense of crisis, like a gorgeous flower from the other side.
When Chimitsu Tachibana appeared on the stage, the audience burst into enthusiastic cheers. This Queen of Sakura is extremely popular and has captured many fans with her appearance.
Tachibana Qianguang stood on the other side of the venue with her wooden clogs on her feet, looking at Jolina and nodding gracefully.
"The players on both sides are already in place!" The commentator's voice echoed passionately, "The venue card for this duel is, 'Mount Olympus'!"
The majestic holy mountain rises from the ground in the center of the site, the morning glow shines on the steep stone walls, and the cry of the eagle is heard in the sea of clouds.
