This number is not too outstanding for the people of the Celestial Dynasty. Although in Taoism and Buddhism, this number has various auspicious meanings.
But this number is an extremely taboo number for Westerners. Especially when a certain outstanding painter, Leonardo da Vinci, who also appeared in the world of Lelouch, painted the classic painting "The Last Supper"
"After that, Westerners' taboo against the number 13 reached its peak.
As a typical Westerner, Euphemia naturally understands this taboo.
Just by looking at the looming black cloud above Euphemia's head, Lei Mingkai already knew how Euphemia was feeling right now.
"Ahem. Yuffie. Actually, you don't have to worry about that much." Lei Mingkai coughed and sold Iori Makoto and Reiji who had just drawn the numbers.
"Look, Yuffie, Cheng and the others have drawn the number 44! In East Asia, the number 4 symbolizes death. Not to mention, the number that Cheng and the others have drawn now is 44."
As he spoke, Lei Mingkai spread his hands in a worried gesture.
"There is no doubt that compared to the number 13 we drew, Cheng's numbers seem to be more unknown."
Euphemia, whose face was a little gloomy, blinked her eyes, raised her head slightly and glanced at Iori Makoto, who was also smiling helplessly, and her expression seemed to improve a little.
However, Euphemia would not let go of her grudge just yet.
"What about Kai.13? What does this number symbolize here in East Asia?"
Lei Mingkai was stunned, rolled his eyes, and showed a mysterious smile.
"The number 13 is not regarded as an unknown number in East Asia. On the contrary, it has been given various auspicious meanings in the religious culture of East Asia. Moreover, in the modern discourse system of the Celestial Dynasty,
The number 13 has been given a romantic meaning."
"Romantic? What does romance mean?" Euphemia's eyes flashed with confusion.
"Yes!" Lei Mingkai smiled and continued to say mysteriously.
"If you want to know the answer, Yuffie, how about I tell you after you win this game?"
"Just treat it as a prize for victory?" Euphemia blinked, and a bright light appeared in her pupils again. She was already attracted by the riddle that Lei Mingkai deliberately threw out.
"Yes. How?"
"Okay! We will definitely win this game! Even if Satan comes again, I will defeat him!" Euphemia suddenly waved her little fist with high morale.
And Lei Mingkai finally felt relieved.
Although Lei Mingkai was sure of winning this game, he could not let Euphemia be hit by this illusory and unknown number 13.
The second round of competition starts from No. 01, that is, from the personal exhibition match of Meme Kawaguchi who drew No. 01.
That's right.
It's an individual exhibition match.
Under the watchful eyes of the entire audience, Meimei Kawaguchi cleanly knocked over the enemy with the advantageous electromagnetic gun several times, and won the victory, which was a good start to this round of competition.
Immediately afterwards, after Yasaka Shino and others appeared one after another, it was the turn of Remingkai and Euphemia, who had drawn Weapon No. 13, to appear.
Although Lei Mingkai had comforted Euphemia about the number 13 before, Euphemia was still a little uneasy when she stepped onto the Gunpla battle platform.
"Yuffie, don't be afraid. I have everything."
Lei Mingkai patted Yuffie's little hand, comforted him again, and then began to set up the GP base and put the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry inside.
However,
After Lei Mingkai controlled the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to rush into the competition venue, he landed next to the weapon cabinet that had been placed in the venue beforehand, and after opening it, he was confused by the items placed in the weapon cabinet.
"What the hell is this?"
I saw a handle quietly placed inside the weapon cabinet covered with red cloth.
Hubaoqi took it in his hand and waved it a few times, then a light strip with a faint light flashed out between the waves.
"Beam saber? It's not as strong as a beam saber."
Lei Mingkai frowned, and for a moment he didn't remember what the light strip emitted by the handle held by Hubaoqi was.
What's more, the enemy won't let him have enough time to understand what the weapon handle in Tiger Knight is.
"boom!"
The air was torn apart at this moment.
Lei Mingkai pulled back the control ball in his right hand like lightning, allowing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to dodge the bombardment from the front.
In the smoke and dust, Lei Mingkai saw an MSAMX-014 Wolf from the Gundam zz, holding the huge Mega particle cannon with both hands and pointing at the Tiger Leopard Cavalry from a distance.
"Tsk! Are you so lucky?"
The current situation is clear at a glance.
The weapon held by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is a weapon handle whose function is currently unknown.
The weapon held by Biao Lang is the same as his original partner, no, even more powerful than the Mega Particle Cannon held by his original partner.
"Zi!!"
The contestant who controlled Biao Lang did not waste any time, but simply pulled the trigger, locking the figure of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry again, causing the Mega Particle Cannon in Biao Lang's hand to scream.
"Kai! The opponent is about to launch! Get out of the way!"
Euphemia's face looked very ugly at this time.
The situation facing the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry now has undoubtedly made Euphemia subconsciously think of the curse brought about by the unknown number 13.
"boom!"
Another dazzling particle beam.
However, under the control of Lei Mingkai, the tiger and leopard rider still easily dodged Biao Lang's attack.
"Does the weapon only have this handle and close combat?"
Lei Mingkai glanced at the weapon column of the Tiger and Leopard Rider, which was empty except for the handle that had no purpose. The first rule of this round of competition was to remove all weapons from the participating Gunpla bodies.
.
The opponent will naturally think of the way that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry can defeat the enemy. Therefore, the moment the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry shows signs of launching an assault, Biaolang will immediately stop shooting and accelerate back to distance itself from the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
.
"Tsk. Are you trying to bring down the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?"
Several attacks launched by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were all avoided by the opponent in time, and they spotted the moment when the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's assault advance ended and launched the attack.
Although Lei Mingkai had a plan in advance to prevent his opponent from seeing through the tiger and leopard cavalry's charging rhythm, this still made the battle move towards a protracted battle.
"Whoa!"
Suddenly, the tiger and leopard knight shook his right hand, and a faint ray of light shot out, and in the blink of an eye it was wrapped around the trunk of a big tree not far away.
Immediately afterwards, the tiger and leopard rider pulled, and the big tree wrapped in light broke.
"Is it a beam belt? Is it the one used by Nobel Gundam in the martial arts battle?"
Now, Lei Mingkai finally understood the function of the handle in the Tiger and Leopard Rider.
However, even so, when Lei Mingkai understood what the handle in the Tiger and Leopard Rider was, he also saw through it.
Therefore, Biaolang's offensive became even more fierce.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
In order to ensure the mobility to suppress the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Biao Lang even gave up the irradiation mode of the Mega particle cannon and adopted the burst mode to ensure the continuity of firepower.
As big pits continued to appear at the feet of Hubaoqi, the beam attack launched by Biaolang became more intense.
"boom!"
A beam cannon fired by Biaolang exploded in front of Hupaoqi at close range, raising smoke and dust in the sky and submerging the figure of Hupaoqi inside.
In mid-air, Biaolang, who had been chasing the tiger and leopard rider, subconsciously slowed down and began to patrol the surrounding area.
"Kay. Let me do it!"
suddenly,
When Lei Mingkai used the smoke and dust to hide the whereabouts of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and tried to launch a surprise attack, Euphemia suddenly passed through the virtual screen formed by the Pawfsky particles and came to behind Lei Mingkai.
.
"Yuffie, just let me come here."
Although Lei Mingkai was surprised by Euphemia's current actions, he still shook his head.
"No. I know how to use this weapon! Because, under the guidance of the palace teacher, I danced the ribbon dance."
Saying that, Euphemia gritted her teeth and said with a blushing face: "In order to keep in shape, my teacher requires me to keep dancing with ribbons three to four times a week."
At this time, Lei Mingkai was stunned, and at the same time, he subconsciously gave up his position and let Euphemia control it.
Then, after coming back to his senses, Lei Mingkai shrugged his shoulders slightly.
Apparently, the number 13 stimulated Euphemia quite a bit! So much so that Euphemia even told her about her own exercise sessions.
However, I didn't expect that Euphemia could maintain such a good figure because she insisted on dancing with ribbons in accordance with the requirements of the palace teacher.
Thinking of this, Lei Mingkai shook his head, threw away such wild thoughts, and focused on the game again.
According to his thinking, even if he loses this game, it is not a serious matter. As long as he maintains the victory in the subsequent games, he can still enter the finals.
At this moment, Biaolang, who had no idea that the Hubaoqi had changed its controller, was still patrolling back and forth in mid-air, trying to find the figure of the Hubaoqi.
"Whoa!"
The moment Biao Lang turned around, a ray of light suddenly tore open the dense woods below, and wrapped around Biao Lang's left leg in a flash of lightning.
"What?"
This sudden change caught Biaolang's pilot off guard, and he quickly pushed Biaolang's thruster output to the highest level.
However, at this moment, the glimmer of light wrapped around Biaolang's left leg condensed into a beam of light that shone with faint purple light, and began to tighten rapidly.
"Click!"
"Click!"
As the beam belt tightened, cracks appeared in Biaolang's left leg, and he was about to be unable to hold on.
"Tsk! Eat this move from me!"
Perhaps in order to save his left leg, or perhaps taking advantage of this great opportunity when the two sides were in a stalemate, Biao Lang wanted to defeat the tiger and leopard rider he was stalemate with at this delicate moment.
"Buzz!"
Countless particles quickly condensed at the front of the muzzle of the Mega Particle Cannon in Biao Lang's hand, and an increasingly dazzling light ball formed in a few breaths.
"Die!"
"boom!"
Under the roar of the controller of the wolf, the beam cannon, which was more terrifying than before, tore through the void, heading straight towards the woods below and towards the end of the light belt.
The beam of light is fleeting.
The world seems to have become extremely silent at this moment.
The next second, the silence suddenly subsided, and what was left was the explosion that resounded throughout the place, the black clouds rising into the sky, and the woods below that were quickly engulfed in flames.
As the fire flickered, Biao Lang's left leg was saved.
The beam belt that almost caused Biao Lang to lose his left leg disappeared the moment it exploded.
"Did it succeed?"
For some unknown reason, the controller of Biaolang did not feel the relief and joy of winning. Instead, the unknown feeling in his heart became more and more intense.
"Wow!"
The noise from the auditorium made his heart tighten, and he subconsciously controlled the Wolf to perform emergency maneuvers. However, he found that at some point, he was supposed to be able to control the Wolf with ease, as if he was sinking deep into the mud, unable to move forward again.
Even a little distance.
"What's going on?"
When Biao Lang's controller turned around, he saw that the tiger and leopard knight who was supposed to be blasted into the sky by mega particles unexpectedly appeared behind Biao Lang and wrapped the beam in his hand tightly around Biao Lang.
, making it unable to move for half a minute.
"The number 13? Today, I will give you this unknown number!!" Euphemia, who placed her hands firmly on the control ball, focused her eyes on Biaolang and said in a suppressed voice.
Then, in the desperate eyes of the controller of the Wolf, Euphemia gently pulled her right hand, and the tiger and leopard knight followed suit.
A beam of light shining with beautiful and mysterious purple light floats freely in mid-air, and under the beautiful trajectory drawn by this beam of light are the countless remains that were cut off from Biaolang and scattered towards the ground like petals.
"boom!"
This is the death knell of the Wolf Wolf and the ending bell of this competition.
"The battle is over! Lei Mingkai and Euphemia win!"
Looking at the dissipated light of the Palavsky particles, Euphemia couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Then before Remingkai could speak, she lowered her head and walked quickly off the Gunpla battle platform without any trace of emotion.
Ignoring Lei Mingkai's call, he quickly ran out of the venue.
Lei Mingkai, with a face full of confusion, retrieved the tiger and leopard knight, followed closely behind, and chased him all the way out.
This scene made Fellini and others onlookers laugh out loud.
"It's really rare! I didn't expect that Kai and Miss Yuffie would cause such a little farce." Fellini touched his chin in amusement.
"Maybe, maybe, this is the fun between lovers!" Yasaka Shino, a patient with severe unrequited love, began to fall in love with a certain girl.
"Um, will Kai and Euphemia be okay?" Iori Makoto looked left and right and asked cautiously.
Who knew, but Fellini tapped him on the shoulder.
"Cheng. You will understand this when you fall in love!"
