A Race to (Be) The Top

Ling Xiaolu checked the friend panel and found that Zhenjiu was online, so he casually sent him the egg yolk pastry he had just picked by pet mail.

Before Zhenjiu replied, Linglong's dialog box lit up first, and he was so excited that he didn't need honorifics.

Ling Long: Deer than me @￥#*#you%*...!

Ling Xiaolu felt guilty, he forgot that Linglong was still in Fenglong's body, this poor phobia patient was probably quite frightened.

Zhenjiu received the pet mail and sent a surprised expression.

Luby: Last time I failed to eat lamb chops, please eat egg yolk crisps, which I grew myself.

Zhenjiu: Thank you ^^

Ling Xiaolu really wants to show those netizens who call Zhenjiu the Great Demon King all day long, have you seen this smiling expression?What a kind and easy-going person!

Ruby: Will you come to the wedding ceremony the day after tomorrow?

Ruby: There's my show!

Zhenjiu: All right, I will definitely go.

Ling Xiaolu belatedly remembered that he was still a black name.

Bucky: Whoops, forgot you can't go to town?

Zhenjiu: Don't worry, I will find a way.

Fenglong came back, Ling Xiaolu quietly called "Linglong" several times, but it didn't respond in a daze, it seemed to be scared away.

It's too bad, Ling Xiaolu sincerely repents, or give him a screaming chicken next time to make amends.

***

The long-awaited wedding came as scheduled. In order to participate in this celebration, and also to not miss the rare feast of Kou's father, many players from afar traveled together to the Jingzhe City one day in advance.

At noon on the day of the wedding, the send-off team departed from the Spring Equinox City on time.Except for Priestess Sadia and her guards, the rest are all players who spontaneously participated in sending off their relatives.Sadia, this virtual character who has a very high popularity in Spring Equinox City, has many admirers under her skirt.These worshipers regard themselves as the knights of the goddess, and even set up a family "Knights of the Goddess", whose strength is not inferior to that of Dou Niwan.

From the Vernal Equinox City to the Jingzhe City, the sending team needs to cross a quarter of the map, which lasted an entire afternoon. Along the way, new players continued to join, forming a long and mighty long team to escort the bride-to-be to meet her future groom. .

In the evening, a welcoming team composed of the guards of Commander Tiss went out of the city to welcome Sadia and her party who were about to arrive, and the lively wedding ceremony in the city also kicked off.

"Welcome everyone to participate...to participate in this..."

Dou Kou got stuck just after turning on the mic, and the attendant behind him reminded him in a low voice: "Commander Tees and Priest Sadia."

"...to attend the wedding of two NPCs. I, Dou Kou, the current city lord of Jingzhe City and the patriarch of the Dou Niwan family, welcome everyone to come on behalf of Jingzhe City!..."

Ling Xiaolu sat in the golden seat of the auditorium arranged for him by Dou Kou, and whispered to Ji Meng.

"Why is Father Kou the owner of Jingzhe City?"

"There is a siege battle at the end of every month, and the family that wins the battle can get the management rights of the main city. Since I played this game, Jingzhe City has been under the jurisdiction of Dou Niwan."

"What is the use?"

"The usefulness is that every store you open in the city and the suburbs, and every transaction you make, you have to pay rent and taxes to Dou Niwan."

Thinking of all kinds of shops in Yuanting Town, Ling Xiaolu couldn't help exclaiming: "That's a lot! It seems that it's too cheap for Kou's father to set up six hundred banquet tables."

The golden seats are very close to the stage, and Dou Kou can see the audience clearly at a glance.

At this moment, he was quite dissatisfied, he obviously only reserved a place for the children, what face does Ji Meng, a miser who doesn't set a table, have the face to come over to eat and drink?

The two of them were still so close when they were talking, maybe Ji Meng's seductive plan had already succeeded!He really felt wronged for the children.

The attendant poked at Dou Kou, who was thinking of wandering off, and reminded him that there were still audiences waiting below.

Dou Kou restrained his thoughts and continued to speak: "I know that the goddess has always been the pride of the residents of the Vernal Equinox City, especially on weekends, many people travel thousands of miles to the Vernal Equinox City just to listen to the goddess singing. But from today, this pride , will belong to our Jingzhe City! Welcome to all players, every weekend from now on, come to my Jingzhe City to listen to the singing of the goddess, these [-] tables of banquets, I have the right to serve as a meeting ceremony for guests from all over the world!"

"Father is right!" Ling Xiaolu applauded and shouted from the audience.

Dou Kou secretly watched his reaction, and was secretly proud when he saw this: The kid must have felt my generous hand.The game has been in service for so long, and there has never been an event where the number of banquets has reached the upper limit that the main city can accommodate. Only he, Dou Kou, has such financial resources, and even Crown Prince Ji is no match.

This will be the first step for the children to improve their impression of him. Although this first step is a bit painful, Dou Kou still vaguely has a sign of a heart attack when he thinks about the bill.

But if it can be exchanged for favors, it's all worth it.The speech should have ended here, but Dou Kou held the microphone in his hand, looked at the eyes staring at him under the stage, and suddenly had a few words in his heart that he wanted to confide.

"With the joining of the goddess, the comprehensive strength of our Jingzhe City has risen to a higher level. I, Dou Kou, have been playing this game for so long. I have the most popular main city in the game, and a family that is unparalleled in strength. An inexhaustible resource.

"If there is any regret, it is that I have not been able to have a human battle pet so far. If I can get a fan name, I am willing..."

Dou Kou paused for a moment before he was lucky enough to say, "Give him a mine under my name!"

"Oh oh oh oh!" Everyone cheered collectively, and Ling Xiaolu's voice was the loudest.

"One-year mining rights for...!" Dou Kou finished passionately.

"Hey—" Ling Xiaolu led the booing, and the audience booed.

Dou Kou saw that there was such a big contrast between the front and the back, and he was anxious: "Two years! It's all yours!"

The booing became louder, and the followers saw that the situation was not good, so they hurriedly half persuaded and half pushed the patriarch to step down, spending so much money to win the hearts of the people, it would be bad if it was self-defeating.

"Thank you patriarch for such a wonderful speech. Next, everyone should eat, drink, and play to their heart's content. Is there anyone who wants to take the initiative to perform?" The attendant tried hard to warm up the scene.

Of course Ling Xiaolu would not miss this opportunity and jumped onto the stage.

The audience began to cheer from the moment they saw who he was. This boy with his own popularity and koi physique can bring everyone different degrees of surprises every time he appears.

Ling Xiaolu tried the wheat: "Everyone knows that today's host is originally your husband Ji Meng, but I didn't expect Kou's father to sell [-] tables as soon as he made a move, which completely outmatched my husband. In order to thank such generous father Kou, I Let's do a dance for everyone!"

"Good!!!" The applause came one after another, the lights on the stage flickered frequently, the dynamic prelude sounded, and several burly figures ran onto the stage well-trained, posing in a professional dance formation.

The audience below didn't recognize who the backup dancer was at first, and they all showed surprise expressions until the performance started.

This is the most famous mercenary team in the entire server. They have always received battle commissions such as siege, escort, and king fighting. No one thought that they would appear on the stage at this moment. Their serious dancing did not match their serious facial expressions at all. The dynamic dance steps show a sense of unexpected contrast.

Ling Xiaolu, as the only person with a lively expression on the stage, with his graceful figure and nimble steps, against the awe-inspiring mercenaries, he is like a flower of life bursting out of the shell of the dry earth, or like a flower in the deep night sky. Remember the bright fireworks, instantly igniting the audience.

The audience turned on the screenshot and video functions in unison, and thousands of people shouted his name in unison:

"Rerby! Ruby! Ruby!"

Ling Xiaolu performed dazzling tricks one after another in the midst of such applause. When the audience's emotions were mobilized to the highest point, he suddenly bent down and remained motionless. The music also changed from dynamic to low, and the lights gradually dimmed. It's about to calm down.

"Fog is coming!" He shouted, and the stage was instantly shrouded in fog, and the dim stage lights flickered on and off, vaguely illuminating the outline of someone in the center of the stage.

The audience craned their necks to see what was going on.

The spotlight came on suddenly, a figure appeared from behind, and a name came to everyone's lips, but they couldn't think of it.

The music turned sharply, and the figure turned around, shining brightly.

"Ah!!!" A female voice screamed excitedly, "Husband!!!"

Ling Xiaolu took a step back and gave up the position C to Ji Meng.His expression is lonely and cold, his movements are firm and soft, every tightening and stretching of the muscle lines makes the blood pumping, a look ignites the hormone, and a hook of the finger makes the adrenaline soar to the peak.

High-decibel screams came and went, girls shouted "husband" until they were hypoxic, and the male compatriots eagerly rushed to turn on the live broadcast, and the little pets rose into the air one after another, spreading the amazing moment staged in Jingzhe City to the whole world Serve every corner.

More than a dozen long-range lights illuminated the night sky, and the brightness reached the sky. Ji Meng's handsomeness also broke through the sky, illuminating Jingzhe, the city that never sleeps.

After a period of nervous drumming, the music stopped abruptly, and Ji Meng's stern and unparalleled freeze-frame movements pushed the atmosphere to the climax. If the sky had a roof, it would be swept away by the excited crowd.

Amidst the enthusiastic shouts and screams, Ling Xiaolu jumped forward and grabbed the microphone: "Did my husband dance well?"

"it is good!"

"Do you still want to see it?"

"think!!"

"Who is the protagonist of today's treat?"

"Papa Kou!!!"

"Does Papa Kou want one?"

The audience is almost crazy: "Come one! Come one! Come one!"

Dou Kou sat in the audience and was suddenly rejected by CUE subconsciously: "I can't, I don't, I won't..."

Followers: "Come one! Come one!"

Dou Kou raised his eyebrows: "Even you all followed suit?"

The attendants shut up collectively, only follower A lowered his eyebrows and followed the crowd in a low voice: "Come one, come one."

The calls for Dou Kou to come to the stage were louder than louder, deafening and resounding throughout the audience.

Ling Xiaolu clapped his hands twice, and winked behind him. Five or six burly mercenaries jumped off the stage, put the garland prepared in their hands on Dou Kou's neck, and carried them onto the stage involuntarily.

Dou Kou, who was forced to take the stage, stood at a loss in the center of the stage, with a garland of sunflowers around his neck sticking out his tongue one after another. He screamed even more when he recognized what it was.

Ling Xiaolu dragged Ji Meng and jumped down when Dou Kou came to the stage, shouting: "MUSIC!"

As the music played, the mercenaries changed their formation, surrounded Dou Kou in all directions, and danced to the rhythm with a serious face.

"Come on, be happy~ Anyway, I have a lot of time~"

"..." Dou Kou had no dancing experience, but he was dancing back and forth, left and right, so he could only move his arms to the left a few times according to the mercenary's performance, barely making a move.

"Ah!!!" The audience screamed again, and Ling Xiaolu's encouraging gesture was also noticed by Dou Kou.

Dou Kou felt happy: Do kids like this?

Thinking of gaining favorability points, he didn't hesitate so much anymore, and swayed his body stiffly following the mercenary's dance steps. Although he was always half a beat slower than the others on the stage, he was also working hard to perform, and even imitated his The dancers I often see twisted their hips a few times in such a sexy way.

Ling Xiaolu jumped on the chair, put his finger in his mouth and blew a long whistle.

As if a certain switch was turned on, the excited audience climbed onto the chairs and tables, cheered and screamed, and threw their capes in the air. Among them, the members of Dou Niwan danced the most.The baby also joined the ranks of the hot dance, dancing in various poses, and the little pets were flying and circling in the air, broadcasting this carnival event live to the whole server in all directions without dead ends.

More sunflowers shook their heads and jumped on the stage in a long line. The mercenaries retreated tacitly, giving the stage in the first half area to Dou Kou and the sunflowers. Colorful lights flashed alternately, and the music switched to fast-paced dance music .Now it was difficult for Dou Kou not to dance, his limbs instinctively swayed to the beat of the drum, and every time he raised his hand to shake it, it would set off a wave of heat in the crowd.

Affected by people's enthusiasm, Dou Kou danced harder and harder, jumping out all the moves he could think of, completely forgetting that he was put on the stage.

A few babies took the opportunity to climb onto the stage, shaking their heads and tails with everyone on the stage, having a great time.

Ling Xiaolu took a closer look and pointed happily, "Lei Lulu!"

Ji Meng looked at the pet fence, only to be belatedly aware that this guy ran out again.

Lei Lulu danced with short hands and legs, and when he jumped excitedly, he began to discharge electricity crackling.

Out of the corner of his eyes, Dou Kou glanced at how this would work, and hurriedly released his land mount - a mighty black-spotted and white tiger with hanging eyes.The white tiger grabbed Lei Lulu and threw it into the air. Lei Lulu made a forward roll in mid-air and then landed on the back of the white tiger. With a higher stage, it twisted its stomach and buttocks. Twisting, dancing more joyfully.

The warm atmosphere of Jingzhe City infected every corner of the mainland through the live broadcast. No matter where people were, they couldn't help shaking their heads and legs to the music, and some even jumped up.

Ling Long's colleagues, the GMs responsible for secretly monitoring the order of the event, also relaxed their vigilance during the carnival, and beat their necks to beat.

"No, no, no, it's not good!"

A person rushed in from outside the city, his voice was drowned out by the joyful dancing crowd.

He jumped onto the stage desperately and grabbed the microphone: "It's not good! It's not good! Don't dance!"

The music stopped, people gradually stopped dancing, and their eyes focused on the source of the sound.

The reporter gasped heavily: "Our welcoming team has been forcibly attacked!"

The people who were still celebrating last second didn't know what happened and looked at each other in blank dismay.The welcoming team is all friendly NPCs. Players must turn on the massacre mode to attack these NPCs, but who would be bored to do this?

"It's people from Vernal Equinox City! They said they refused to marry the goddess until Jing Zhe, and our wedding party started a massacre as soon as they arrived, and there were many more people than us, and they were all fully armed. They came prepared from the beginning, The purpose is not to send off relatives at all..."

He shouted with all his strength: "It's about snatching a kiss!"

The sudden accident made the atmosphere of the bustling scene momentarily heavy.

Ji Meng said, "How many people are there?"

The messenger shook his head: "I don't know, there may be... twice as many present? Or even more."

Today, there are quite a few people visiting Jingzhe City. Judging from this number, it is not only the Spring Equinox City that is here, but even the players from several nearby cities have been mobilized to unite to keep the goddess in the Spring Equinox.

More importantly, everyone here is here for entertainment, and it's not like the other side has made complete battle preparations.

"No matter what, we can't let them succeed. This involves the face of Jingzhe City. We must escort the goddess into the city safely!"

Everyone echoed in unison: "That's right!" "Marry the goddess!" "Defend the dignity of Jingzhe City!"

"But what if we don't have many of them?"

"Yes, yes." Thinking of this, people became anxious again.

"How many people are there in your guild?" Ji Meng asked the mercenary leader.

"There are two hundred more like us."

"Tell them all to go online and escort Sadia into the city," Ji Meng said loudly, "I'll pay the money."

Just as Ling Xiaolu was about to applaud, a large flag fell from the sky. He was surprised to see a light white light mist appear on his hands, and the light mist surged from the inside to the outside. At the same time, he felt that his body was full of energy.

Those who understood blurted out: "Encourage the battle flag! The price in the mall is 398 alliance coins, and the attributes of all friendly troops within the range of the flag will be increased by 50% within one hour!"

Ling Xiaolu patted Ji Meng: "As expected of the prince, you are generous."

Ji Meng frowned: "It's not me."

"Not you?" Ling Xiaolu wondered, "Who is that?"

Another battle flag fell from the sky, this time the flagpole was held firmly in the hands of one person.

Dou Kou stepped up a step, holding a big banner in high spirits: "The goddess is not the goddess of the spring equinox city, the goddess is everyone's goddess, and from now on it is the goddess of our Great Jingzhe! Those whimsical people, I represent Dou Niwan All the clan members, and all the residents of Jingzhe, vow to fight them to the end, and will never allow anyone to take away our goddess!"
