“Uwaa! Over there, over there!”

The people who were slightly relieved just after getting rid of a group of “chasing troops”, their famous face were even harder to look at, Falling To The Silence's hand began to reach out to the waist to clench the Vega Storm.

“Calm down, calm down…” Black Scorpion Scarred Mark's hand covered the right hand that was about to pull the knife, he lowered his voice to dissuaded him. If they don't hurry to solve the bunch of crazy people behind them, he was really afraid that Falling To The Silence won't be able to suppress his anger and cut them all into pieces directly with the Vega Storm.

People are afraid that the famous pig is afraid of being strong, since the end of the siege war the Bobcat team has been thoroughly famous on the continent. On the official website a new section was specially vacated, specifically reported the entire process of the Killing G.o.d Guild from building the city to resisting the monsters siege. On the front page of the section there is a final screenshot of the last monster siege war, that was the huge screenshot of Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence flying to the sky with both of their wings. Even if they want to be low-key, they can't keep being low-key.

The two black and white masks that were made by Falling To The Silence have reached a household name* level. After the official publicity and the enthusiastic pursuit of the players, the two masks became the iconic features of both of them. And it also became the new design of the city-state heraldic emblem with the highest number of votes.

(T/n: 家喻戶曉 a household name (idiom); well known; understood by everyone)

The new city-state was officially named ‘Light and Shadow City' under the intimidation of countless female players, the city-state heraldic emblem is in the shape of a square s.h.i.+eld, the main upper square is a concise streak of giant dragons that are spreading their wings, in the middle is the shape of a half black and half white mask, it is the combination of the look of the mask on Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence's face, the bottom is the sword with two overlapping-handles.

The design process of the heraldic emblem was of course carried out against the Bobcat team, by the time the heraldry was officially hung on the gates of the Light and Shadow City, the talented people of the Bobcat were known, but at that time the heraldic design has been  recognized by the main brain of the system, in other words the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, they are also unable to go back to the heaven*.

(T/n: raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, they are also unable to go back to the heaven: basically means ‘something that has been done can't be undone')

Rao is avoiding going out during the day, wrapped in a big travel cloak all day, the Bobcat team were walking on the street of the City of Light and Shadows, the chances of being identified by others are still highly scary, so that's the scene which was going to happen frequently —— thousands of people FANS crazily chased.

“I can't escape…” At the moment, five people were firmly stuck in an alley. An Tong's desperate eyes look at the people around then he said to Cold Wave with his eyes closed: “Boss, I can't help you.” As the words stop the figure disappeared without a trace.

Fusu immediately grinned and waved the staff, a round circular array appeared at his foot, then after the white light he also disappeared without a trace. Of course Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence weren't stupid stupid enough to stay here and be seen as a rare animal, they look at each other and both of them went stealth. It's very unrighteous to leave Cold Wave alone, engulfed by the crazy crowds.

“I can't stay at the Light and Shadow City any longer, see you at the public house in Rubedo City everyone..” Leaving such a sentence in the chat channel, everyone is very tacit and block the private chat, only Cold Wave was left whining on the team channel.

It's already the second night when everyone gathers at the public house of Rubedo City. The first one was Fusu, the senior mage's advantage was that he could freely use the mage guild transmission array of all the major towns except the rival city-state, in other words he only needs to attach a few money to travel between the major towns at any time.

The second one is Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence, their racial skill's flying are definitely not good to look.

Cold Wave is naturally the last one to come over, he threw the helmet and remove his armor, with a scratch and a bright red lip print on his face —— It can be seen that he didn't escape until after the fierce “obscene play “.

Seeing his own boss in a difficult situation like this, the first one who couldn't help but sprayed out “pffft” laugh was An Tong, and then under the deterrent of Cold Wave's b.l.o.o.d.y red sword he shut up and squat in the corner—— There's no way anyone let him be the weakest of the Bobcat team? Good people being bullied, good people being ride on ah…

“Go upstairs first.” Fusu smiled seeing An Tong's look, the 2nd World's First Martial Art Compet.i.tion will begin soon, a large number of players began to flock to the Rubedo city, even if it's not the Light and Shadow City, but the Bobcat team has already become famous, it is difficult not to be recognized by the players who has set on their mind, it was estimated that it was going to be another “great escape”… Fusu was the first to come to the public house, he is quite prescient to set the room on the top floor of the public house, although it cost a lot of gold coins, but it was nothing more than a drop in the ocean* for the Bobcat team which had a large commission from Drunken Evil Of The Throne after the Light and Shadow City was built.

(T/n: 九牛一毛 a drop in the ocean (idiom) means: very small numbers)

Facts have proved that “money is not omnipotent, it's impossible to have no money”. This sentence is absolutely immutable truth, sitting on a soft mattress, enjoying the best beer in the public house, let these days come for the Bobcat members who had either run for their lives or live in the opens or crouching on their tents enjoyed the real thing.

“This is the information I found on the official website and the forum about the world's first martial arts compet.i.tion, it is very different from last year's battle pattern.” Transferring the data sharing, Fusu divided the information he had collected to the remaining four people one by one. This time the official is very generous to give a detailed of the compet.i.tion process as well as the venue description.

The compet.i.tion completely upended from the last year's form, they'd put all the partic.i.p.ating members into the compet.i.tion venue. According to the pictures released by the official, the building named “Tower of Babel” is actually really like the ancient Egyptian pyramids in reality, according to the information disclosed at this stage, the s.p.a.ce inside the tower is very large and divided into several floors, each floor is estimated to have a large number of powerful monsters. And once the contestants step into the Tower of Babel they will enter a special mode, they can not leave the Tower of Babel unless they die or give up the game. Even worse, the players entering the tower automatically enter the PVP(player vs player) state and can attack anyone other than their teammates. At that time all the partic.i.p.ating players will face the threat of not only monsters, but also the threats of their opponents from around the side anytime and anywhere —— Which means they will face an unusually unprecedented melee, a truly really “great escape”.

Tower of Babel

After reading the information provided by Fusu, everyone was suddenly speechless, after long time a word was squeezed out of Cold Wave's mouth: “f.u.c.k…”

“They really want to come out too…” An Tong scratched his head and said with depressed, it is now possible to foresee how chaotic and brutal the game will be at that time, doesn't this setting make it clear to let the players seen each other to kill each other? I really don't understand what the game officials really think.

“I feel like this may not be just a game as simple as that.” Fusu habitually pushed the monocle. The official release of information has always been less and less, can be blurred then it will be blurred, this time they unprecedentedly revealing so much information, absolutely unusual. “And the ‘Tower of Babel' is a legendary building that mortals built to communicate with the G.o.ds. I feel that this game may be related to the mission that were previously opened during the siege war.”

“It is very likely.” After thinking for a moment, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark had to admire Fusu's ability to a.n.a.lyze accurately: “Have you notified anyone?” If it is really related to the previous mission, then the trip is absolutely arduous, and the more allies are the better.

“I hinted Drunken Evil Of The Throne and Flying Dragon In The Sky.” Fusu showed his signature smile, that two people are not stupid after all, and it is estimated that they will be able to grasp what he means. If they can't —— then a pig-like teammate, no need to worry about.

“And also, everything that can be prepared is prepared as much as possible, fill up all the s.p.a.ce you can fill.” With the last experience in Resiutta, this time in the Tower of Babel don't know what abnormal monsters or BOSS will be encountered, material supplies, food and medicine are definitely the more the better. This sentence is mainly said to Black Scorpion Scarred Mark, after all he has a dual ident.i.ty as a chef and pharmacist in the team, the key food and medicine depended on him.

“There's no problem.” Black Scorpion Scarred Mark nodded, he and Falling To The Silence each have a void bracelet, both have the s.p.a.ce of 20,000 squares. If they fill these two bracelets even if you throw the Bobcat team into the Sahara desert they can definitely live a leisurely journey, however the cost for purchasing the materials is the problem.

Fusu naturally understood his hesitation and immediately pulled out five crystal coins and handed them to him: “Money is not a problem, if it's not enough come to me again.” Anyway, this money is reimbursed as fund for the Killing G.o.d Guild's activities —— spending other people's money is really refres.h.i.+ng and not painful ah!

“OK, give it to me.” Black Scorpion Scarred Mark understood thoroughly, he took over five pieces of crystal coins and put them in his pocket. Some of his materials were collected by his own skills, Drunken Evil Of The Throne gave him so much money at once, and it is estimated that even his reward is included in it. However if you think about it carefully, Killing G.o.d plus Dragon War Four Boundaries' team members add up must be more than a dozen people, all the things of so many people depend on him to prepare, it's really a big project. This “rebate” he also took it with peace of mind.

  Soon on the eve of the compet.i.tion, everyone who does closed cultivation practice does closed cultivation practice and those who prepared the materials does prepared the materials. In short, they were all rolled up their sleeves for the battle* and ready to welcome the upcoming 2nd world's first martial arts compet.i.tion.

(T/n: 摩拳擦掌 roll up one's sleeves for battle (idiom) means: to gear up; eager to get into action or start on a task)

At first i thought it's gonna be boring to start new game after another, and repeating this World's first martial arts compet.i.tion again.. BUT i was completely wrong… seeing the description of the 2nd compet.i.tion sounds so interesting and cool, it sounds like SURVIVAL GAME. kill each other. Remind me of Korean variety Running Man name tag game.. XD

and also the escaping game in Tower of Babel sounds like Escape Room game… i watch the movie and varieties which has this game… so exciting for the next game…. >o
