Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

"Casius, please wait for my good news."

The silver dragon spread its wings and soared in the sky. Its streamlined body was particularly beautiful, and its silver wings shimmered in the sunlight.

"Finally, I fooled her."

"Next, I will wait for the help from the good camp. I believe that old guy Osedro still has some conscience."

Looking at the silver dragon going away, Casius nodded slightly, and then looked at the panel that refreshed the information again.

[The comprehensive strength level of the NPC faction [Burning Empire] you created has reached: 3]

[Unlock new section: faction activities]

This is not beyond Casius's expectations. The level 3 faction is already ranked in the continent of Feansuo.

You must know that the once prosperous Holy Fadlan is only a level 5 faction in the system's evaluation.

After a year of development, the empire's politics, economy and even culture have made great progress.

The Matra Farm has been fully operational, supplying food to the whole country. The military-industrial system of the empire has also been initially established and is thriving. The parliamentary system has gradually become a routine, and the political system has become more and more perfect.

The progress of productivity, the prosperity of people's lives, and the influence of players have also brought about the rapid development of social culture, and countless new ideas have emerged.

The atmosphere of self-confidence and martial arts has spread across the country.

In just a few years, the people in the remote and barren land of the Anzeta Great Wasteland have ushered in the dual peaks of material and spirit.

Although behind this prosperous momentum are also the sweat of countless workers and the blood and tears of the southern people, they are also hidden under the bright and beautiful appearance of the empire.

"Faction activities are coming too."

Cassius smiled.

Faction activities can allow him to occupy a place in the player panel and completely integrate the activities of the empire into the lives of players.

After the launch of version 2.0, faction activities will also attract more players for him, making the Burning Empire the "main faction" in the minds of more players.

You should know that the next version will open up a lot of ancient teleportation arrays, which are also called "rebirth points".

The current Burning Empire can still take advantage of its home advantage to take almost all players into its pocket.

But the next version may not be the case: the Elf Kingdom in the High Forest, the Free Trade Federation in Silvermoon Bay, the three kingdoms of Fadlan in war, and the Orc Clan in the Rosa Desert will all become very attractive birth points.

Cassius recalled the various time points in his memory.

"It is May 2, 1789 in the Third Age. There are still two months before the end of the Northern Wind version and the first server closure after the public beta."

"Then let the Burning Empire host the first official pvp event on a full server scale."

In Cassius's previous life plan, the original first full server pvp event appeared in the [Clash of Kings] version, jointly held by dozens of wealthy guilds.

And now, this event will be brought forward.

This is Cassius's plan - to prepare a large-scale pvp event before the server is shut down, and to squeeze the experience and gold coins from players for the last time in the [Northern Storm] version.

At the same time, this can also highlight the status of the Burning Empire as the "official faction" and attract more subsequent players.

Two years ago, Cassius personally proposed the "Imperial Arena" plan, allowing this magnificent building to appear in Istalia, just for this day to come.

And about three months ago, Cassius handed this matter to Rump to prepare. Now all matters have been prepared, and only the official announcement is waiting for it to be issued.

"Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing."

Cassius called out the panel again, and he exhaled a puff of light white smoke, and the light flashed in his golden vertical pupils.

[Do you want to release a large-scale faction event to players? ]

[Yes. ]

[Please name this faction event. ]

Casius thought for a moment, but couldn't think of any nice name, so he could only perfunctorily name it "Empire" - just like he named the Imperial Arena.

[Named: [The First Gladiator Contest of the Burning Empire]]

[Faction Event Announced! ]

On May 3, 1789 of the Third Era, nearly 400,000 players of "Erezaigai" received notifications of the faction event at the same time.

This announcement ignited everyone's enthusiasm.

The players were excited!

Suddenly, posts about the "Empire Gladiator Contest" became popular on the forum, and soon, almost everyone was discussing this upcoming event.

"What the hell?"

"The rewards are so generous! There are titles and costumes!"

"Are the dog officials going to be human?"

"I want to participate too!"

"I wanted to hide my identity and be a Buddhist player, but now I have to reveal my identity as a peerless master!"

"Come on, it's just a toy for the rich and professional bosses, and mortals like us can just watch for fun."

"Is this the last big event of this version?"

The reason is simple, the rewards for this competition are extremely generous and unprecedented.

For example, players who win the individual championship can not only get rich gold coins and experience rewards, but also get the special [Dragon Flame Champion] title and costumes.

[Dragon Flame Champion] can turn the player's nickname into golden red, and at the same time can increase a little precious charm.

And that costume is even more eye-catching, with a gilded luxurious shell, exquisite claw carvings, a domineering flying dragon shoulder armor, and even two slowly flapping flame wings on the back

It can be said that the special effects are full!

It can only be said that it completely meets the fantasies of all the local tyrant players.

In fact, this is just a piece of equipment that Cassius made with his strong control over the flame element, which barely reaches the rare quality.

For equipment like this, Cassius can make seven or eight pieces a day, but only one is released to ensure its scarcity.

And the spiritual robes and armor prepared for the top four and top eight players are the by-products of Cassius's experiment with elements, and they were originally going to be thrown away as garbage.

The equipment effect is not very strong, but the appearance is indeed full.

Some people also gave a revelation, saying that they are middle-level officials of the empire and also participated in the preparation of this game.

Indeed, this game is not only participated in by the official participation of the empire, but also by various player guilds and clubs, and they even issued a joint statement.

"The first gladiatorial contest of the Burning Empire has officially opened! This is a grand event for players! This is the biggest stage of "Erezaigai"!"

"Swords, fists, magic, beasts, you can use dazzling means to fight heartily and bring the ultimate visual and auditory enjoyment to this grand event!"

"The leader of the camp [Emperor Burning-Cassius] will personally come to the elimination match. He will witness your performance and give the final winner rich rewards and supreme glory!"

As soon as the statement was issued, the players were excited again.

In the past two years, Cassius has rarely appeared and has stayed in the palace most of the time.

In the minds of players, compared with ordinary NPCs, the emperor has become more like a "background board" and has become an omnipotent existence in the legendary story.

Many Dragon Oath Paladin players regard "Cassius bless" as a mantra-because after actual testing by several big guys, this can indeed increase the success rate of the Holy Oath spell.

Every time Cassius appears, veteran players know that they are about to start watching the cutscenes. The red dragon is like a plug-in that belongs exclusively to the Burning Empire. Every time it appears, it can ruthlessly destroy the enemy.

And being personally appreciated by the emperor is like "a mythical figure entering reality".

How can people not be excited?

And the members of special guilds such as the "Dragon Control Club" and the "Majesty Cassius Support Club" are even more excited, and the reason is naturally needless to say.

I'm greedy for His Majesty's body!

The competition system of the [Imperial Gladiator Contest] is relatively simple and easy to understand. Due to time constraints and the imminent closure of the server, they did not hold playoffs or points competitions.

There are three types of competitive atmospheres: individual competition, team competition, and guild competition.

Individual competition is a one-on-one duel between two players in a specified venue. If one party surrenders or is killed, it is considered a failure.

Team competition is a classic four-person team to fight. If one party surrenders or is wiped out, it is considered a failure.

The guild competition has the largest number of participants. Each guild is limited to 50 people. They compete in a specified battlefield. If one party surrenders or the whole team is wiped out, it is considered a failure.

Due to the tight time of the competition, there are only two stages: the group stage and the knockout stage.

In the group stage, the registered players or teams are divided into different groups to compete with each other. A victory will get 3 points, a draw will get 1 point, and a failure will get 0 points. The individuals or teams with the highest points will be selected into the knockout stage.

In the knockout stage, it is a brutal fight. From the top 100 to the final showdown, the winner will enter the next round, and the loser will leave sadly-until the final winner is chosen.

This is also the last large-scale event before the end of the [Northern Wind and Cloud] version. Almost all players are coveting the throne of the champion.

Of course, some professional players and strategy masters have received support from their fans, so various battle power fighting posts began to appear on the forum.

The most heatedly discussed hot post is [Who will be the individual champion? 】, there have been thousands of replies in this post, and the number is still increasing. The commentators are of mixed composition.

"S University will definitely be the champion!"

"Enough of the dog fans. This is a professional league. He is a single player with no resources and so-so skills. What kind of waves can he make?"

"I still favor the Tyrant. The Royal Guild has too much wealth."

"Who can compare with the Mechanicus in terms of wealth? Who knows how far their technology tree has climbed? It is said that the big guys in it have built power armor. Maybe they will throw a can to scare you to death!"

"Isn't Charlotte worthy? The prepared mage's pvp strength is still quite high."

"But he is too stubborn."

"My wife Xia Ye Qiu Yu is the best in the world!"

"This is a gladiatorial contest, not a beauty contest, so fans of beauty should stop watching."

"Everyone, I have something to say, I think Langli Baitiao is the one with the strongest hard power and the most likely to win the championship."

"Langchu is using his main account."

"It's disgusting, Langchu is using his subordinates' accounts to speak again."

"???"

"Putting aside the character, just based on the three major families, the amazing Yuzhongchengchi has a chance to win the championship."

"Where's Mantou? No one said anything about Mantou?"

"He's a bad player, just practice more."

"Laoman should update the video, he's not suitable for this kind of event."

"Brother Zhan Kuang is invincible! Chop off all the teeth!"

"I don't care about the game. I just want to touch His Majesty Cassius' tail, hehehe.qwq His Majesty Cassius."

"What kind of unidentified creature is upstairs?"

"Does that need to be said? Those perverts who like to post dragon porn pictures."

"."

"In the original history, the champion of the first pvp event should be the president of the Royal Power Guild. I wonder what changes will happen now?"

Browsing a hot forum, Cassius deliberately ignored a few abnormal comments and thought so.

"Singo, I won't lose! The title of Dragon Flame Champion, I'm determined!"

"Pah!"

In the tavern, Mantou slammed the table and made a fierce announcement.

The people around him immediately looked at him with a lunatic look, which made Mantou couldn't help shrinking his neck.

"Ah——"

The noodles tied to the pillar outside the tavern seemed to feel the owner's movement and let out a howl.

"Oh."

Singo didn't even raise his head, just flipped through the paper in his hand and responded perfunctorily.

Seeing that the other party did not respond to his declaration of war, Mantou felt like he had punched cotton and was particularly frustrated.

All the heroic spirit in Mantou's chest leaked out like the air in a punctured balloon.

He walked up and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Singo continued to flip through it and said casually, "Study the opponent in advance and be fully prepared, but just look at those players with stronger strength."

Mantou looked over curiously and saw familiar names written on those papers: Charlotte, Tyrant, Iron Frenzy, Great Dragon, Rain City.

Behind those names were detailed descriptions of their various professional abilities, equipment attributes, weakness analysis, etc., which showed that they had taken a lot of effort to compile.

"Damn, so detailed, did you make this now?"

"Of course not, I was collecting information about each player two months ago, didn't you receive any internal information? Oh, by the way, you are not a middle-level official and have no authority."

"."

Mantou was silent immediately.

After a moment, he asked with some expectation: "By the way, what about me?"

"Did you also collect my information? Show me! Oh. I didn't expect that as a teammate, you would steal my information. It's really..."

Singo raised his head, looked at him strangely, and said calmly: "I said, I only collect valuable information."

"Uh"

Mantou smiled awkwardly and turned his head: "Brother Zhan Kuang, you should also participate."

Tiansheng Zhan Kuang touched his bald head with patina, and smiled: "Of course, I am the best at this kind of activity. Maybe I will chop Singo in the end?"

"I won't show mercy. If you meet me, I will chop you in half."

Mantou looked at the bloody axe in the other party's hand, and then looked at the smile on the other party's face, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Ming said the most brutal words, but showed the most honest smile on his face. Maybe this is the unique charm of Brother Zhan Kuang.

"Sister Qiuyu is still gentle——"

Mantou looked at Xia Yeqiuyu again.

Xia Yeqiuyu showed a gentle smile on her delicate face.

But then, accompanied by the sound of air tearing, violent flames burst out from her golden eyes, difficult to contain.

"."

Another silence.

Mantou felt that his road to the competition might become bumpy.
