Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 1527 Black Cat
"Let's meet up with other judges first, and I don't know if the meeting has started yet?" Farina muttered in a low voice.

Angor caught one word: "Meeting? What meeting?"

"It seems that there is a meeting to quantify the standard of winning or losing a game. It is a standardized meeting for weighing the outcome of various situations that may occur on the field." Farina paused, and then said: "However, this kind of meeting is very important to us. It doesn't matter if you listen or not."

"Anyway, there are no special circumstances, and special judges rarely intervene in the evaluation of the outcome." After finishing speaking, Farina winked at Angel: "We just need to sit aside, drink tea and think about alchemy techniques. It's over."

Angel: "..." It turns out that he is not the only one who intends to score points.

As soon as Farina finished speaking, she contacted a person through the communicator. From the light and shadow displayed on the communicator, it could be seen that the other party was a middle-aged woman with a mean face.

Farina communicated with the other party for a while, then turned off the communicator, and explained to Angel: "She is the witch Batina, a close friend of mine, and also the judge of this Rising Star Competition, but she is not a special judge. It’s a permanent judge.”

"Originally, I was still thinking about whether to attend the judging criteria meeting, but now I don't have to think about it, because Batina told me that the meeting has ended for almost half an hour."

Angel showed apologetic expression: "I'm late."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I'm inclined not to attend the meeting, but I'm still a little hesitant because of my feelings." Farina shrugged: "You were a little late, but you made an ideal choice for me."

They walked forward all the way, because the audience had already gone to the Infinity Arena, but there were not many people outside.

Occasionally, I would meet one or two people, and when they saw Angel, they all showed surprise.Although no one dared to step forward, there were whispers in the wind.

""The Sky of Truth" is not exaggerating this time, Angel has really advanced!"

"Hush, keep your voice down. How dare you call him by his first name, be careful not to be heard by Wizard Pat."

"Ann... next to Wizard Pat is the Watermark Witch, right? I heard that the Watermark Witch seems to be the judge of this competition, so maybe Wizard Pat is also..."

"Well, when I came to participate in the Rising Star Competition, I still thought that Angel, as Jetway's old enemy, would definitely stage a wonderful battle of destiny this time. Who knows, Jetway is still a player, he has become Judgment."

Although these mutterings were subtle, for official wizards, as long as they wanted to hear them, they would thunder in their ears, and it was useless to whisper them.

Farina also heard those voices, and she smiled and said, "According to your current popularity, when the preliminary round is held, you may steal the limelight from all the judges."

Angel: "It's not what I want. Besides, do judges need limelight? I thought that only contestants care about popularity."

"There are always people who enjoy the sense of accomplishment of being noticed." Farina: "I heard that a few judges would care about this, but they were robbed of the limelight by you, and they probably didn't dare to say anything. After all, this is the current sky. The general trend of the machine city."

Public opinion has promoted Angor to the top, which may have meant killing him at first.But Angor himself has firmly established himself at the top, and even climbed a level, and now he has reached the official wizard.The so-called flattery not only became a joke, but even pushed his enthusiasm to a higher climax.

Such a fiery game of the Rising Stars Competition did not cover up Angel's light.This can be seen from the fact that the alchemy circle was almost deserted by Ashriere's class grabbing two days ago.

This is the general trend that Farina said.

Not long after, under Farina's guidance, they came to the backstage of the Boundless Arena.This is a road exclusively for official wizards, so it is very quiet here, except for the two of them, there is no one else.

Not long after walking along this corridor, they suddenly heard a bang bang bang.

Angel frowned, looking at the source of the sound.

The sound came from a closed wooden door.

"That seems to be..." Farina was halfway through when a big hole was opened in the middle of the wooden door, and a figure flew out from inside.

It was a man covered in blood, his eyes had begun to turn white, and he obviously passed out.

At this time, a black cat jumped out of the hole in the wooden door lightly.

"This is the fate of offending me." The black cat jumped onto the man's head, muttering in a human voice, showing its sharp claws, as if it wanted to break his head.

Suddenly, the black cat smelled the scent of scented tea in the air, arched its body, and turned around suddenly, its eyes met Angel and Farina.

The dark green eyes of the black cat shone with cold light, and the pupils turned into vertical lines.

However, when the black cat saw the appearance of Angel and Farina clearly, its arched back slowly relaxed, as if it recognized their identities.

The black cat drooped its tail, muttered "good luck" in its mouth, then turned around and jumped into the door, disappearing.

A cold wind blew by, leaving only the man lying in a pool of blood.

"Behind this door is the player's backstage." Farina finally said what she hadn't finished before.

Angel pointed to the people on the ground: "So, this person and the cat are all contestants in this competition?"

Farina stepped forward, and a stream of warm steam filled the man's body. After a while, Farina said: "To be precise, only that cat is a contestant in the Rising Star Competition. Although this person is not dead, he is not dead." In three to five months, the injuries on the body will not recover."

Angel recalled the cat from before, which looked a bit like Qili's Luna, but Luna was a female cat, and this one seemed to be a male cat from the sound.Moreover, Luna is a monster, and the black cat just now is probably just some kind of blood incarnation.

But the incarnation is so perfect, almost exactly like a cat, it can be seen that it has surpassed the half-beast state.

The bloodline incarnation surpasses the half-beast state, and can also control the self, not to be controlled by the animal nature.It is enough to show that his compatibility and understanding of his own blood has reached a very high level.

Speaking of the bloodline incarnation alone, it is estimated that Angel saw the most suitable person among the apprentices.

When Angel thought this way, Farina was also feeling emotional: "The black cat is almost in the form of a beast, which is rare among blood wizards. There are so many new star competitions that have never been seen before. A genius."

Angel also said casually: "The newcomers are really more and more like monsters."

Farina looked at Angel with weird eyes, and said that the new people are like monsters, and you are the newest person, the strongest monster.

It was her turn to say this, not Angel.Farina cursed in her heart.

"I've seen Xia Li's skill before, and it's also very good. Has she advanced this time?" Angel asked.

"Xia Li has advanced, but I guess with her stubborn character, this competition will definitely offend many people." Farina pointed to the unconscious man on the ground: "I just hope she doesn't end up like this person."

The man on the ground was finally taken away by the staff.Angel and Farina continued to go to the judging room. When they left, Angel's mental strength went to the backstage of the contestants.

It was very lively inside.

Although many players may not necessarily compete today, and the venue of the competition may not necessarily be the Boundless Arena, but there are dozens of players at a glance, including the black cat that Angel saw before.

After the black cat entered the backstage of the contestants, it walked forward with graceful catwalks.Along the way, no one dared to approach it, and all looked at it in fear.When the black cat walked up to a sofa with a backrest, its figure slowly changed into a handsome and indifferent boy. The only thing that remained unchanged was the pair of cat eyes. They avoided his sight one after another.

However, there are also several people who don't care about the eyes of the black cat.

For example, a woman who is carrying a handbag with pink hearts painted on it, but her aura around her is so gloomy that she seems to be surrounded by dark energy.

Also, although there is a touch of death all over his body, his whole body is like a healthy young man in the morning sun.

Topless, with scars all over his body, a man who was silently cultivating beside him.

Wearing a weird hat, a weird and sickly girl with a smile.

Wait... These people all ignored the eyes of the black cat, and the black cat itself showed great importance to these people.It can be seen that this group of people is probably at the same level as him, and may even be stronger players.

Although Angor said that he intends to be a judge to cheat points, he has no intention of doing it. He is also looking forward to this Rising Star Competition.Especially this time the Rising Star Competition has my own friends participating.

Angel withdrew his mental power, but he didn't notice it. When his mental power was removed, a young man who was holding a book and reading seriously in the corner looked suspiciously at the direction in which his spiritual power left.

……

Farina sensed Angel's spiritual power: "You seem to be very curious about these players."

"After all, I have to watch at least 10 games, and I still hope to see wonderful duels in these 10 games." Angel said.

"Speaking of excitement, it is true that some apprentice competitions will be more interesting." Farina paused: "For example, today's preliminary competition."

Angel asked curiously, "Why is today's preliminary round so exciting?"

"A lot of people came to watch the preliminary competition, which represents the appearance of this new star competition."

Following Farina's explanation, Angel understood.

The so-called "preliminary round" is actually not the first game in the sequence of games he understands.Rather, it was a duel that was deliberately selected.

However, this "deliberate", according to Farina, should not be a black box operation.

Because at the end of the Rising Star Competition yesterday, all the contestants who advanced had already been drawn for matching.In other words, they actually already knew the numbers of their opponents, but they hadn't made a specific match schedule yet.

Players currently only know the numbers of their opponents, but the officials must already know the two players corresponding to all games.

Because the preliminaries are the face of the Rising Stars competition, and besides the finals, it must be the most popular competition.Wouldn't it be embarrassing if the preliminary competition turned into a protracted battle where one side concedes, or one-sidedly, or has no technical content.

Therefore, among the nearly [-] games, the officials selected the most interesting game as the preliminary round of the Rising Stars rematch.

Since it was a deliberately selected duel, relatively speaking, it would definitely not be too bad.

Thinking of this, Angel asked a little curiously: "Then in this preliminary round, who is going to play against whom?"
