Luigi's challenge to Gulemo to climb the stars has finally come to an end.
This challenge is very important to Luigi because it determines whether he can obtain the name of "Star". Only by obtaining the title of "Star of Green Field" can he stand out in the Dasman Empire.
Only when he has gained fame will Charlotte take a high look at him and allow him to step onto the "stage of dreams".
So Luigi took this challenge very seriously and almost racked his brains to find a way to win.
Now, it depends on the results given by Mulloy.
This time the Star Climbing Challenge does not show the result of a game after a duel; rather, the score is hidden, and Mulloy will announce the result after the two duels are over.
The original Star Climbing Challenge did not have such rules. The reason for changing the rules was mainly because of Gulemo.
Gulemo said before starting the challenge: Even if it is a tie, I will lose.
This means that as long as Luigi wins the first game, there is no need to play the second game. Because winning the first game is equal to a tie.
But the star climbing challenge must go through the process. If you don’t finish the second game, it is not considered a star climbing challenge at all.
Therefore, in order to make the result of this challenge more suspenseful, Mulloy and Gulemo discussed and changed the scoring rules.
Gulemo and Luigi face off twice first.
After each match, the rating will be hidden by Mulloy.
After the two duels are over, Mulloy will announce the final result.
At this time, the two duels have ended, and it is time to announce the final results.
Mulloy walked to the center of the courtyard and coughed twice, attracting their attention. Obviously, he already had the final answer.
Before announcing the result, Luigi glanced at Gulemo not far away.
Gulemo's expression was very calm, and there was no hint of any emotion on his face.
But the slightly twitching corners of Gulemo's eyes and the exposed veins on his arms when he clenched his sleeves were enough to show that he was actually ups and downs in his heart.
Luigi lowered his eyebrows and recalled the two pieces of music Gulemo had performed with him before.
The first one is "Poem of War".
This is a piece of music selected by Gulemo himself. It describes the grand epic of war, which is majestic and surging. Moreover, Gulemo simulated the rhythm of "beating drums" on the harp, which scared Luigi silly.
This is the first time Luigi has seen this amazing technique.
The drums beat, the fire breaks out, and the war rages on!
The constant beating of the drum was like a chain, locking Luigi's heart. Every time the drum beat erupted, the chain would tighten and hurt his heart.
But also because of this tight feeling, Luigi felt the adrenaline rush caused by war even if he had never been exposed to war.
It can be said that this is a piece of music that makes people's blood rush to the brain unconsciously.
Luigi asked himself that he could not perform such a difficult, high-level, and technically demanding harp piece.
Because in Luigi's understanding, the harp can be graceful, sacred, and free and melodious, but it can also be passionate and majestic. This is a path that Luigi has never imagined.
Faced with the war song played by Gulemo, Luigi finally chose to respond with "Garden of Flowers".
"The Garden" is not Luigi's original song, but it is the strongest song related to "flowers" mastered by Luigi.
Yes, the reason why I chose this song "Shengting Garden" is because this piece of music describes a scene of blooming flowers and dazzling flowers.
This perfectly fits with another skill of "Wonderland Item: Graceful Flower Language": Flower Language.
Previously, Luigi used the "Language of the Wind" to perform "The Thirty-Two Winds", successfully convincing Mulloy and Gulemo, and qualified for the challenge of the Star Climbing Journey.
Even Luigi and Lapras, who were outside the dungeon, felt the Feast of Wind through the dungeon.
From this we can see how terrifying the skill of Fengzi Huayu adds to piano music.
However, after playing "Thirty-two Winds", Gulemo gave a subtle reminder that borrowing external forces is not the right way after all.
Apparently, Gulemo noticed something was wrong.
At that time, Luigi actually had the idea in his mind to challenge without resorting to the skill of grace and flower language. After all, if you want to get on the stage of your dreams, you cannot always rely on external forces.
but……
After listening to Gulemo's performance of "Poetry of War", Luigi's mentality immediately changed, because he felt the gap between himself and Gulemo from "Poetry of War".
If he didn't use external force, he would definitely lose to "The Poetry of War".
For the sake of the main mission and to get on the stage of his dreams, Luigi finally chose to compromise.
He chose "Shengting Garden" and opened "The Language of Flowers".
"The Language of Flowers: The fragrance of blooming flowers will lead the impetuous heart to sink into a quiet place. During the performance, the audience's attention and immersion will be greatly improved."
It seems that "Language of Flowers" is just an ability to increase concentration, but like "Language of Wind", it has a hidden mechanism.
When Luigi turns on the "Language of Flowers" and performs songs related to "Flowers", magical bonuses will appear.
And the addition of Flower Language to "Shengting Garden" is... floral fragrance and illusion.
When Luigi performed "The Garden", everyone smelled the fragrance of flowers. But this "smell" was not like what the nose smelled, but a mysterious and mysterious feeling.
Everyone was immersed in the fragrance of flowers and saw the garden in full bloom in the illusion.
Everyone is addicted to the beautiful music.
Even Angel and Laplace who were outside the copy were attracted by the inexplicable fragrance and drifted in the floral fantasy. It was like a beautiful dream, bringing people into a utopian paradise.
When the song ends, everything is silent.
After a while, Gulemo and Mulloy came back to their senses.
The expressions on the two of them's faces when they looked at Luigi showed shock at "The Garden", but there was also some deep meaning that was unclear and incomprehensible.
Especially Gulemo, he looked at Luigi with a clear look.
It seems that he wants to see through Luigi completely.
The first duel came to an end, and the final result was decided by Mulloy. However, due to the revised rules, Mulloy did not announce the result immediately, but let them have a second duel.
The song for the second duel is chosen by the opponent.
And this also gives them space to operate.
If you want to win, you must choose a difficult problem for the opponent. The best thing is to choose the opponent's weak item.
After thinking for a moment, Luigi gave Gulemo a topic: Delicate Emotions.
Luigi actually doesn't know what Gulemo's weaknesses are, but from the first round of Gulemo's performance of "Poetry of War", it seems that he is very good at interpreting this kind of grand epic.
Moreover, since Gulemo listed "Poetry of War" as the first round of repertoire, it shows that he is full of confidence in this epic repertoire.
Then Luigi would definitely not be able to let Gulemo continue to perform such magnificent poems.
After careful consideration, he decided to let Gulemo perform the opposite of grand poetry - graceful poetry.
And "delicate emotion" is the core of graceful poetry.
On the other side, Gulemo was not surprised by the topic given by Luigi. He nodded lightly and gave Luigi's topic: Miracles of Nature.
Judging from the questions given by Gulemo, he did not embarrass Luigi.
Because Luigi's previous performances of "Thirty-Two Winds" and "The Garden" are fundamentally natural things.
Gulemo allows Luigi to continue the "natural chapter", which can be said to be a pattern or his confidence in himself.
However, Gulemo also added some difficulty in the "Nature Chapter".
That is the "miracle of nature".
The "wind" and "flower" performed by Luigi before were actually neutral and graceful. To perform "miracle", there is no doubt that a grand perspective is needed, otherwise where would the miracle come from?
In other words, their titles are actually reversed: Luigi gives Gulemo elegance, and Gulemo gives Luigi epicness.
After both sides determined the interpretation topic, they each rested for a few minutes and then began the second round of duel.
The song Gulemo finally chose to perform was called "The Camellia Woman."
Luigi had not heard this piece, but with Gulemo's performance, he probably understood the story of this piece.
This is a somewhat sad and graceful poem.
It tells the tragic life of La Traviata, including falling in love, being abandoned, being immoral, and being disqualified.
Luigi couldn't describe the feeling that the whole music brought to him. He was fascinated by it as he listened, as if he saw a woman with camellias in her hair, which led him to her world.
By the time the song ended, Luigi was not as obsessed with it as he had been with the "Poetry of War" before, but tears were shed from the corners of his eyes for no apparent reason.
In fact, he was not very sad inside, just a little depressed.
But these repressions forced his tears to come out, and they were caused by him unconsciously.
From this, we can see the level of Gulemo.
Even when he performs graceful poems, he still makes people linger unconsciously.
Luigi thought that Gulemo was only good at grand narratives, but in fact he had no shortcomings at all. In terms of delicate emotions, Gulemo could still sink into his heart.
After listening to "The Lady of the Camellias", Luigi finally understood why Gulemo could exist as the finale on the stage of all nations.
High, can reach as high as the sky.
Low, even as low as dust.
Gulemo looks full of nobility, as if he was born into a noble family. But it can be seen from his music that his life experience has definitely not always been "noble".
Because I don’t have the experience of living at the bottom, I can’t interpret the emotion contained in the song “The Lady Selling Camellia”.
Helpless, indifferent, sad, numb, knowing that my heart is far away, but I can only accept a mediocre life.
Luigi only had one thought at this time: strong, too strong.
However, even if he thought Gulemo was a high mountain, Luigi had no intention of admitting defeat. Even under the "numb" suppression given by Gulemo, Luigi gave a strong rebound——
"Hymn to the Galaxy"!
This is the piece he performed, which is both his response and his feedback to "The Lady Who Sold Camellia".
The theme of "Hymn to the Galaxy" is: Praise to the starry sky.
It not only describes the majesty of the galaxy, but also describes the shock brought by the dense starry sky.
This is undoubtedly in line with the title given by Gulemo: Miracles of Nature.
Isn't the starry sky the greatest miracle of nature?
However, none of these are actually important. The most important point is: who narrated the hymn to the galaxy?
people.
The shock brought by the starry sky, and who gave the feedback.
Still human.
The starry sky is a miracle of nature, and humans are the main subjects of observing the starry sky.
So what kind of person can look up at the stars?
The answer is: everyone can, even non-people.
You are a high-altitude king, you look up at the stars and think of the boundless land; you are a scholar on the astrology tower, you look up at the stars and record the trajectories of the stars.
You are a La Traviata who has been driven into the dust. You can also look up at the stars and see boundless miracles and your own insignificance.
Even if you are an insect, a kitten, or an eagle, you can still look up at the stars and feel the unreachable edge.
Therefore, "Hymn to the Stars" not only describes the miracles of nature, but also writes countless poems about human beings observing the starry sky.
Under the strong pressure from Gulemo, Luigi was not knocked down. Instead, he became more courageous as he fought and performed "Hymn of the Galaxy" perfectly!
Moreover, he also has a unique design.
In the middle of "Hymn to the Galaxy", an excerpt from "The Lady Selling Camellias" is interspersed.
This is telling that La Traviata can also look up at the stars.
When you lower your head, you can see the sixpence on the ground, and when you raise your head, you can also see the stars and the moon in the sky.
If "The Grand Garden" is performed with a plug-in, "Hymn to the Galaxy" directly makes Luigi a plug-in.
When his performance ended, the look in Gulemo's eyes finally changed from deep to clear.
Previously, Gulemo might have felt that it was a bit disdainful for Luigi to use external forces to fight.
But this time, Luigi really showed his strength, and his performance was full of storytelling, just like his professional bard, slowly but powerfully conveying the beauty of the galaxy and the beauty of humanity.
included in a piece of music.
And it also has its own little design.
Although this design is suspected of being tricky, the fact that he can intersperse such a design in temporary performances is enough to show that he is very comfortable in harp performance.
Because of "Hymn of the Galaxy", Gulemo affirmed Luigi's strength.
——If Luigi still relies on outside help this time, Gulemo will definitely start the questioning process. But after this song, even if Gulemo loses, he is willing to admit it.
For this reason, Gulemo gave Luigi a very high score.
In the second round of the showdown, not only did Mulloy score, but both sides also had to score each other's performance.
Gulemo has no selfish motives, and Luigi also has no selfish motives.
Anyone with ears can hear the brilliance of "La Camellia". Luigi shed tears unconsciously, which also represents his affirmation of this music. In this case, if Luigi
Giving scores against your will will definitely cause public outrage.
Therefore, Luigi stayed true to his heart and gave Gulemo a high score.
Both parties recorded the scores on pieces of paper and handed them to Mulloy.
Now, the two rounds of duels are over, and all the results are in Mulloy's hands.
Luigi, Gulemo, even Angel from God's perspective, and Laplace watching the "real-time broadcast" all set their sights on Mulloy.
