Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 30 Play hard to get (page 12)

After the game, No. 29's score reached 12 points, which made everyone under the ring feel more stressed.

"I'll go, twelve points, then if we want to catch up with him, we have to win eight games in a row?"

Ida looked at the scores on the bulletin board and took a breath of air.

"And you have to make sure he doesn't take action."

This score makes it difficult for everyone. At present, it seems that we can only compete for the bottom three.

There is only one day for the selection of the top four, and if there is no rest in the ring fighting, there can only be forty or fifty games in one day. If all the teams on the field are divided equally, it is impossible for anyone to surpass Gallian.

Of course, this is only based on the most ideal situation. The reality is that there will be popular teams that win more points on this day, provided that their number of challenges must be maximized.

No. 14 quickly realized this and immediately stood on the stage and picked a weaker opponent among the top 16. Yes, the most important part is to pick a weak team to achieve the required time. minimize.

The faces of the chosen opponents were very ugly. After all, No. 14 was the top three in the previous year. Facing them would undoubtedly result in a deduction of points, but they could not refuse the challenge, so they had no choice but to stand on the ring.

As the stone fell to the ground, No. 14 immediately started to walk towards the opposite side. As large sentinels, they could not run quickly due to their size, but thanks to this, coupled with the large shields and bone nails in their hands, they had extremely unique abilities. With their ordinary defense and combat abilities, the three of them took action at the same time, knocking all their opponents out of the ring with just one encounter.

After the referee announced the end of the game, No. 14 did not step off the ring. Instead, he pointed the bone nail at another weaker team and started the next round of fighting.

"Can it still be like this?" Mo Rong pointed at the sentry on the stage and asked Ida beside him.

"Yes, the team standing on the stage can choose to continue the challenge on their own."

"Wouldn't this take up other teams' time?"

"No, after three games, if someone can't stand it, they can challenge it in the opposite direction, and the people on the stage can't refuse."

"Isn't it said in the rules?"

"This is something that has been agreed upon in previous games, so the referee didn't say anything about it."

"It's really not rigorous. Then don't we have to fight with these big guys for bone nails later?"

Mo Rong got a headache thinking about this.

"If they never come down, that's probably it."

After three consecutive battles, Number 29 on the stage consciously walked off the stage. They were afraid that if they occupied the ring for too long, Number 29 would become dissatisfied and attack them. Although the three teams in the match just now were not strong. team, but this does not mean that they can definitely defeat No. 29 due to their strength.

Seeing that the arena was empty, Mo Rong immediately called for Yi Kui and the two of them to jump onto the stage. At the same time, Moss Team No. 21 also jumped onto the stage.

A smile broke out in Mo Rong's eyes, he looked at the captain opposite and said:

"What? You still want to bump into us?"

"Bah, what a bad luck. Just wait for me."

Captain Moss's face was gloomy. He didn't expect to encounter this team again. Although he was certain that he would not fall into Mo Rong's tricks again, he did not dare to take risks. Their team could no longer be deducted points, so he turned around with a harsh word. Get off the stage.

The three teams just now have been challenged. Mo Rong avoided the teams he had analyzed and picked three more unpopular teams like them to challenge.

"Listen, among the teams I just picked, the last team is weaker than the other two."

Mo Rong said to the two of them.

"In the next three games, I want us to win only two, and! We must win 'hard'!"

"We're going to lose one of those games to the weaker team."

"Why? Don't we want our points?"

Ida looked confused.

"Now we don't know the strength of those strong teams, so if we want to score enough points, to be on the safe side, we can only try to choose from weak teams."

"If we win, we can only win three games in a row, three points at most, but what if we lose and lose to a weak team?"

Mo Rong looked at Ida aside and blinked.

"We will deduct one point?"

Ida looked at him and said, Mo Rong covered his face and couldn't bear to look directly at Ida's IQ.

"I understand! What the captain means is to show weakness to the enemy!"

Kui Ruo understood and clapped his hands.

"That's right! If we want to continue winning three games in a row, we will inevitably encounter strong teams."

"But if we give the following teams an illusion of weakness, then some teams will take the initiative to challenge us."

"This way we can have more opportunities to compete and score more points!"

"I'll go, it seems like this is really the case, then won't we have to lose from time to time in the future?" Ida's eyes lit up, and he understood what Mo Rong meant.

"Oh, we can draw inferences from one example, indeed, but we won't lose much. After all, there are only a few weak teams, and they will be divided up by others soon. It depends on whether we are lucky or not."

The consensus was reached. Facing the next opponent, the three of them did not use their full strength, but they all used their "full strength". After all, they still had to practice seriously, otherwise others would think they were cheating.

As Mo Rong expected, the last team was indeed not as strong as the first two, and they lost the game as planned.

"I really don't know how you won those two games just now. How can you still be in the top 16 with this kind of strength?"

"too weak."

The captain of the last team stood in front of Mo Rong and smiled contemptuously.

Mo Rong looked up at him, anger couldn't be hidden in his eyebrows, but his heart was filled with joy.

"Yes! Louder! Humiliate us severely!"

But the wish was in vain. The captain on the opposite side left after mocking a few words, and the three of them, Mo Rong, also went down to the ring in despair.

Mato in the distance scratched his head and asked Sly beside him in confusion:

"When did Brother Morong become so weak?"

"Don't believe that kid's behavior, he's a ghost."

The fact was just as Mo Rong expected, just a moment after they went down, another unpopular team jumped up to challenge them.

As far as the current competition is concerned, it seems that there are four places to qualify, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that there are actually only two places left for them to fight for. Not to mention that Galion is one against nine, and the Sentinel team's top three results have also made the arena Everyone is afraid, so if those unpopular teams want to qualify, they can only pick weaker teams first.

Mo Rong's team did not refuse the challenge, which surprised everyone in the audience. Wouldn't it be too irrational to continue the battle in this state?

The three people slowly walked to the stage and started the game amidst the referee's concern and doubts.

"Come on, the three people on the opposite side look exhausted, let them be our first points!"

"rush!"

The battle in the ring seemed extremely "tragic", with a lot of "bloodstains" appearing on the corners of Yikui's mouth. In the end, they won the victory with difficulty, at least that's what their opponents thought.
