Chapter 202 Challenge (ask for double monthly votes at the end of the month)
“Excuse me, you can choose slowly.”
At this time, another group of survivors arrived, and the staff left the drawings behind and went to receive them.
Wang Tao looked at this drawing and found it very interesting.
The best living environment here is the courtyard house, of which there are two units. But there are four major forces in Bauhinia City, and there are three more after excluding Bauhinia Base. What does it mean to keep two sets of courtyard houses?
Followed by single-family villas, there are 8 in total.
If the courtyard is prepared for the four major forces, then this single-family house is prepared for the medium-sized forces. But there are at least a dozen medium-sized forces in Bauhinia City, or maybe more. After all, this is what was counted before.
And now there are only 8 villas, so so many medium-sized forces are competing for these 8 small villas?
As for the number of suites and single rooms at the back, there are not many. There are not even many dormitories. This is outrageous. Is it possible that people are still allowed to set up tents?
Unless it is a courtyard house, a single-family villa or an apartment, if people squeeze in, it should be able to accommodate everyone. But few people are willing to share it. This is not a matter of being stingy or not, but a matter of face.
And what’s more, the Bauhinia Base is even more amazing. Their entry rules are not based on first come, first served, nor are they sorted by the Bauhinia Base. Instead, these foreign forces are allowed to compete for themselves, and only those who win can settle in!
Each force has three opportunities to challenge and be challenged. The challenge opportunities can only be used during the day. Bauhinia Base said that in order to avoid hurting the harmony, it stipulated that these challenges were one-on-one, that is, a competition of high-end combat power, and the outcome would be determined by one game. If you win, you will get a residence. If you lose, you can choose to step back and go to other places, or challenge other forces.
It's weird that we have to fight just to live in the same house.
However, most people should also know that this is deliberately done by the Bauhinia Base to divide them.
Because this upgrade action is actually a negotiation in the initial stage, Bauhinia Base does not want others to be too united, otherwise it will not be conducive to its own performance.
But so what if you know, this is a conspiracy and there is no way to crack it. After all, other forces are not united in the first place and cannot unite to boycott the Bauhinia Base.
And there should be many people willing to challenge others.
After all, there is no first place in literature and no second place in military affairs. Some people must be dissatisfied with some of the previous rankings. Now everyone is together for a rare occasion, and the Bauhinia Base provides this opportunity, just in time to compare notes.
This is not just for face, fame, etc., but also for reputation. If these forces want to develop in the last days, they need a lot of people. And the easiest way to attract people is to have a good reputation.
Whether welfare benefits are good or not is one thing, and whether they are strong or not is another. And the latter is more important!
After all, this is the end of the world with many crises. Even if the welfare benefits are poor, you can get by, but if you are not strong, you will die...
“Brother Wang, how do we choose?”
Nie Siyan approached Wang Tao and asked in a low voice.
She is not a fool, so she can naturally see the sinister intentions of the Bauhinia Base, but she is very confused.
"whatever."
Wang Tao’s so-called Tao.
He often finds a place to sleep in the wild and doesn't care much about the sleeping environment.
…”
Nie Siyan opened her mouth. She used to hate hearing the word "casual" the most. But now it was Wang Tao who said it, and she smiled bitterly.
Moreover, Nie Siyan felt that Wang Tao said it casually, but this might be a test given to her by Wang Tao. She can't just choose...
"There is no one to choose the bad places. If I choose, I will definitely be embarrassed, and Brother Wang will be unhappy. And the good places are all occupied, so I can only choose a fight..."
Nie Siyan looked at those single-family villas and was a little eager to try them.
Her current strength is not what it used to be, and she is no longer the same as before!
However, after thinking for a while, she decided to play it safe and make a compromise and choose a mid-level suite.
Mainly because Wang Tao is here. If Wang Tao was not here, she would definitely choose to give it a try. If she loses, she loses. She is thick-skinned and is not afraid of embarrassment. But Wang Tao is here. If she loses, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Wang Tao? So be careful and just choose a suite.
But just at this moment, a group of people passed by. They were chatting quietly, but Nie Siyan's ears were sharp and she heard everything they said.
“…After observing for so long, which force are we going to challenge?”
"Don't worry! Each force only has three opportunities to challenge, we have to seize it! It doesn't matter if you lose face or not, but it is said that the Bauhinia Base has spent a lot of money this time and prepared meeting gifts for the top forces. There are two levels of meeting gifts. Where is the crystal core? How can this ranking be determined by voting?
Not only did Nie Siyan hear these words, but Wang Tao also heard them.
Wang Tao feels that these people are like stooges. How could it be such a coincidence that someone shows up right when we are choosing a place to stay? And he said it so carefully that a second-level superpower user could hear it clearly.
But this is also a conspiracy.
After all, second-order crystal nuclei are something that everyone lacks now, and no one will be tempted.
But Wang Tao didn't say anything. It was Nie Siyan's decision to make the choice, and he would not interfere too much.
“Brother Wang, I decided to choose a villa!”
After a moment, Nie Siyan said seriously.
She also knew that this might be a trick of the Bauhinia Base, but for the sake of the second-order crystal core, she was willing to take a gamble. After all, Wang Tao gave her so many second-order crystal cores, and she had always wanted to find an opportunity to repay Wang Tao...
"Can."
Wang Tao didn’t say much.
Nie Siyan looked at the 8 villas and chose Building 8, which was a more auspicious number.
She reached out and called the staff.
When the staff saw Nie Siyan’s choice, a bright smile suddenly appeared on their faces.
“President Nie, are you sure you want to choose Villa No. 8 as the target of the challenge? Villa No. 8 is currently inhabited by people from the Thunder Gang…”
…”
Nie Siyan's expression changed when she heard the words "Thunder Gang".
Wang Tao raised his eyebrows. Before he came, he naturally had a brief understanding of the situation of the major forces in Bauhinia City from Nie Siyan.
This Thunder Gang is one of the best among the dozen or so intermediate forces. Many people think that the Thunder Gang is one of the forces most likely to advance to a large force. What they lack is nothing more than population and bases - which means that their high-end combat power is very strong!
Nie Siyan didn’t expect it, so she chose one at random, and the result seemed to be an iron plate.
Looking at the smiles of the staff, Nie Siyan always felt as if she was being laughed at.
She subconsciously looked at Wang Tao, and when she saw that Wang Tao's expression didn't change, she became cruel.
“Sure, that’s it!”
To cancel it now would not be a disgrace to Wang Tao.
You can’t lose the battle if you lose. Anyway, you have three chances, so you can’t go back and continue. And she is very swollen now, she feels that her strength is no worse than others!
“Okay President Nie, the Thunder Gang has not been challenged by anyone so far, you can choose them…”
The staff asked Nie Siyan to sign her name and that of the force, and then asked Wang Tao and the others to follow him.
This challenge does not have so many twists and turns. The rule is 1v1. If you lose, you leave. As long as you make sure that one of the two parties can challenge and the other can be challenged, then just go ahead.
Not many people knew that Nie Siyan chose the Thunder Gang as her challenge, but when they arrived outside Villa No. 8, a large group of people had already gathered around.
Obviously, the people at the Bauhinia Base are secretly passing on the news. He looked worried that the world would not be in chaos.
Nie Siyan was a little nervous at first, but seeing so many people watching here, she was not too nervous.
It’s just the Thunder Gang, let’s do it!
At this time, the door of the villa opened and a group of people came out. It's the people from the Thunder Gang.
The Firefly Society and the Thunder Gang are both medium-sized forces, but the mental outlook of the two groups is completely different.
The members of the Thunder Gang all wear uniforms, hold the same machetes, and have the same lightning tattoos on their faces...it looks very unusual.
As for the Firefly Society, they are more like traditional survivors. Everyone's clothes are different, and they don't have much momentum. They look a little messy.
However, the Firefly Club's side is the most attractive. There is no way around it. The combination of these two beauties and two strong men is naturally very eye-catching.
“What is a firefly? Why haven’t you heard of it before?”
Someone from the Thunder Gang spoke loudly.
The meaning of ridicule is very obvious.
“Isn’t it the predecessor of the Skull and Bones Society? It’s just a low-level force that relies on deceit and deception to survive in Bauhinia City.”
Another member of the Thunder Gang spoke.
"Ah? It turns out to be the predecessor of the Skull and Bones Society! How did such a hot-blooded force have the nerve to participate in the 'upgrade operation'? It's really overestimating its capabilities!"
Another person suddenly realized it.
…”
A total of 10 people came out from the Thunder Gang, and these 10 people were all loudly mocking the Firefly Club.
Because they were angry, they thought that no one would challenge them. Unexpectedly, before their butts were warmed up, someone actually came to challenge them, and it was a very weak Firefly Club.
What does this weakling Firefly Club mean by choosing them instead of others? Doesn't this mean that Yinghuo thinks that the Thunder Gang is weak?
To a certain extent, this was a mockery, and everyone in the Thunder Gang was extremely angry.
So they are going to teach this Firefly Society a profound lesson. Before teaching them a lesson, you have to say a few unpleasant words to relieve your anger before speaking.
Wang Tao and the others didn't care about these words, since they were not members of the Firefly Club anyway. But Nie Siyan looked ugly, and she planned to teach these people a lesson later!
This is, among the Thunder Gang, a short and fat figure stood up.
He pointed at Wang Tao and others with an arrogant look.
"I am Marvin, an ordinary hall leader of the Thunder Gang. Which one of you will come? Hurry, I am in a hurry."
This little look almost says "I am invincible, you can do whatever you want" written on his face.
There are more and more people around. They are all looking at the situation here curiously and guessing who can win. Most people think that the Thunder Gang has a higher winning rate.
Some people who know the Thunder Gang well have a look of contempt on their faces.
"The Thunder Gang is so shameless. They sent Ma Wen in this first battle. This is not an ordinary hall leader, but a being with super combat power!" "It's insidious enough. If the Yinghuo Club really believes this, , then it might be overturned..."
…”
Nie Siyan is ready to play in person.
She didn’t know this Marvin, but she thought she should be fine. They are all second-level superpowers, who is afraid of whom?
But at this moment, Wang Tao suddenly said softly:
“You can’t beat him, let Xu Xiaojun take over.”
"ah?"
Nie Siyan was a little puzzled. She didn't feel how strong this Marvin was? But these were Wang Tao's words, and she naturally believed them.
“Brother Jun, come on.”
Nie Siyan said to Xu Xiaojun very politely.
She would definitely not let Wang Tao's people take action, and she was not qualified, but if Wang Tao took the initiative, then it would be no problem.
“Hey, just call me Xiaojun.”
Xu Xiaojun scratched his head and then stood up.
When he stood up with his size, the feeling of oppression was still very strong.
Especially when compared with Marvin from the Thunder Gang, the difference between a dwarf and a giant is simply the same.
Of course, a larger body only means that he may be stronger, but the overall strength is multi-faceted, especially since everyone is a superpower, superpowers are more important than physical fitness!
So although Xu Xiaojun's size looks quite scary, most people still think that Marvin has a better chance of winning.
However, Marvin frowned because he found that he could not see through Xu Xiaojun's power.
Psychics who have just been upgraded are not yet used to their own strength and cannot hide their strength, so it is easy for them to feel it.
And those with superpowers like Xu Xiaojun, who cannot clearly perceive specific strength, should have entered the second level for a long time.
Of course, he is not afraid.
After all, he is also someone who entered the second level early!
"Come!"
Marwen took out a fire ax, pointed it at Xu Xiaojun, and struck a pose, as if he were a common man.
The fire ax is a really useful weapon, and many survivors like to use it.
Xu Xiaojun also took out a fire axe. Wang Tao said that he didn't need a giant axe. A fire ax was enough to deal with such people.
“I am an ordinary member of the Firefly Club, Xu Xiaojun.”
Seeing that Ma Wen asked him to attack first, Xu Xiaojun was not polite to him. He introduced himself first. Then the charge was launched instantly.
——
Marvin didn't even react at all. His vision went dark, and then he felt as if he had been hit by a dump truck and took off directly.
"Marvin!"
He vaguely felt his companion calling him, but the wind was too strong and he couldn't hear clearly.
boom!
Marvin slammed into a big tree not far away, and many green leaves fell off the tree.
——
Marvin vomited a large mouthful of blood. He climbed up from the ground with some difficulty and looked at Xu Xiaojun with a look of horror.
It’s not that he has never seen a charge ability, but he has never seen one so fast!
But before he could speak, he saw Xu Xiaojun charging at him again.
"Grass!"
Marvin cursed secretly, but this time he was a little more prepared.
He immediately activated his superpower and saw that his skin suddenly turned black.
“Copper skin and iron bones!”
Those who know something about this power immediately speak out.
boom!
Xu Xiaojun rushed over again.
However, Marvin activated the Copper Skin Iron Bone this time. Although he retreated several meters, he still resisted the blow.
Seeing that the big guy Xu Xiaojun was stopped by him.
Marvin grinned, and blood flowed from his mouth.
"You are dead!"
Suddenly a steel nail appeared in his mouth! He shot directly at Xu Xiaojun's throat.
when!
Xu Xiaojun’s reaction was not slow. He has been with Wang Tao for so long and has seen too many superpowers. Naturally, he knows the superpower of Spit Nail.
While watching Marvin open his mouth, he was ready. When Marvin spit out the nails, he immediately blocked the blow with the steel wrist guard on his forearm.
Then Xu Xiaojun roared and punched Marvin in the stomach.
Marwen never expected that Xu Xiaojun could dodge his fatal attack. While his face was still a little stunned, he was punched in the abdomen by Xu Xiaojun.
boom!
Marwen took off again, but this time he flew in the opposite direction, flying directly to the position of Wang Tao and Nie Siyan.
Other onlookers quickly dispersed to prevent the fish from being harmed.
Xu Xiaojun is ready to charge again.
The rules of this competition are to fight until one party admits defeat or dies. In other words, as long as you don't admit defeat, the battle is not over.
The people on the Thunder Gang's side, from the initial shock and disbelief to the current fear and worry, their emotions have changed wonderfully.
When they saw that Xu Xiaojun was unyielding and prepared to bump into Marven again, some of them opened their mouths and were ready to admit defeat.
The battle between survivors is different from that of zombies. Zombies have few weaknesses and are not afraid of pain, while survivors have many weaknesses and have limits of endurance.
If someone gets the upper hand in a battle between survivors, and the opponent is a person with rich combat experience, they may be suppressed until they die!
So although they were very reluctant, they also knew that they had no chance. If he didn't admit defeat, Marvin would be beaten half to death, if not to death.
At this time, Wang Tao looked at Ma Wen flying over, and then looked at the Thunder Gang members who were about to open their mouths and admit defeat. He suddenly said quickly to Nie Siyan:
“Take the steel bar and point it at him.”
One of Nie Siyan's weapons is sharpened steel bars, which can be used in close combat or thrown.
Hearing Wang Tao's words, Nie Siyan was stunned for a moment.
But before she could react, a sharp steel bar was already in her hand.
Then she saw Marvin fly directly in front of her.
Poof!
A sharp steel rod was inserted into Marvin's throat.
"you…"
Marvin's eyes widened with a look of unwillingness, and then his health bar cleared.
"Marvin!"
The people from the Thunder Gang were stunned for a moment and then became furious.
They never expected that Marvin would die! He still bumped into someone else's weapon - in most people's eyes, it was Marvin who bumped into the steel bar, as if it was an accident. Only a small number of people saw that Nie Siyan had no weapon in her hand. If she hadn't suddenly brought out a weapon, Marvin would not have died.
“Kill my brother, you are seeking death!”
Everyone in the Thunder Gang immediately took out their weapons and made a fighting stance.
They didn't see Nie Siyan's movements clearly, and they thought it was an accident, but at this time, it didn't matter whether it was unexpected or not. They have to vent their anger and make compensation!
Wang Tao looked at these people with even colder eyes.
If Ma Wen hadn't suddenly plotted against Xu Xiaojun just now, he wouldn't have let Nie Siyan kill him.
Looking at the appearance of this group of people, are you still not convinced?
Then don’t blame him for being rude, they are all walking second-order crystal nuclei after all.
“Stop!”
But at this moment, a majestic female voice suddenly came.
A group of heroic women walked out of the crowd, and the leader said coldly:
“It’s a normal fight, and I’m willing to admit defeat. Don’t expand the conflict!”
Wang Tao was a little surprised when he saw this group of women.
Those people who knew him even exclaimed in surprise.
“People from the club!”
I found a small bug in the previous chapter. Jiang Shixue’s ability to control other people’s thoughts is not her ability, but her hidden attribute [Eye of Contract]. The previous article has been modified.
In addition, I suddenly discovered that there are double monthly votes. If you have extra monthly votes, you can vote for them. Thank you~
