The Strongest God

The next morning, Liu Chuan specially set the alarm clock, and got up at 07:30. Unexpectedly, Liu Xiaomeng also woke up when she washed her face and went downstairs to eat breakfast. She was sitting at the dining table and drinking milk with her head bowed. To participate in the competition, I was nervous, and I woke up so early abnormally.

Liu Chuan walked over and rubbed her head, and asked, "Are you nervous?"

Liu Xiaomeng pretended to be calm and said, "I'm not nervous at all."

Liu Chuan smiled, didn't expose her, and took breakfast from the kitchen.Dad is busy giving lectures away, and mother is not at home. There are only two brothers and sisters at home. Liu Xiaomeng cooks breakfast. The bread she bakes in the oven is quite delicious.

After Liu Chuan ate breakfast with relish, he asked Liu Xiaomeng to change clothes and prepare to leave.

Liu Xiaomeng went back to the house and put on a white down jacket, a hat, a scarf and a mask. She was fully armed, with only a pair of bright eyes showing, which looked like a white bear from a distance.This girl has been afraid of the cold since she was a child. Liu Chuan couldn't help but pat her on the head when she saw her shrinking her neck: "It's not that cold today, let's go."

Liu Chuan soon drove to the community where Wu Zewen lived. Wu Zewen's home happened to be on the side of the street. Feng Dan was making breakfast for Wu Zewen in the kitchen. Looking down from the window, he saw a familiar silver car. The private car was parked at the entrance of the community. She had already known Wu Zewen in that car.

Sure enough, Wu Zewen's cell phone rang, and he ran out to answer the call: "Hi...you came here so early, I was just about to have breakfast..."

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll wait for you in the car, it's still early anyway, so take your time."

"Yes." Wu Zewen said, "Wait for me for 10 minutes."

Then I hung up the phone, went back to the kitchen and said, "Mom, my friend is here to pick me up..."

Feng Dan looked back at his son: "Is it the friend who gave you the scarf?"

Wu Zewen's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly explained: "Well...he is my alumni, and his sister is also participating in the Rhythm Master competition, so drop us off."

Feng Dan asked: "Why don't you invite him to sit down?"

Wu Zewen hurriedly said, "He said to wait below..."

Feng Dan smiled slightly, took out the fried eggs in the pot, put them on a plate and handed them to Wu Zewen, then took out the steamed buns and milk that were heated in the microwave next to him, and said, "Take it and eat it, don't let people eat it." Wait too long."

Wu Zewen nodded, took breakfast to the restaurant to eat, Feng Dan looked downstairs again, but unfortunately the distance was too far, she couldn't see who was in the car at all.

Because Liu Chuan was waiting downstairs, Wu Zewen quickly finished his breakfast, put on his coat and hurried downstairs, Feng Dan reminded: "Don't forget his scarf."

Wu Zewen went back to the room to get the scarf. Seeing his son in a hurry, Feng Dan couldn't help but smiled and said, "Why are you nervous? It's fine to play the game normally. It doesn't matter if you win the prize or not. Don't take it too seriously."

Wu Zewen nodded, and looked away guiltily: "Then I'll go first, Mom."

Feng Dan said: "Go."

Wu Zewen hurriedly turned around and went out.

In fact, he wasn't nervous at all because he was going to participate in the competition, he was just afraid that his mother would see something. He liked Liu Chuan. This was the deepest secret in his heart. Before the time was right, even the closest mother would Wu Zewen didn't intend to let her know either.

***

When Liu Chuan saw Wu Zewen coming out of the community, he took the initiative to help him open the car door on the side of the passenger seat. Wu Zewen got in the car and handed the scarf in his hand to Liu Chuan: "Return the scarf to you, thank you."

"You're welcome." Liu Chuan took the scarf and put it aside.

Liu Xiaomeng in the back seat came over and said, "Zewen, how are you preparing?" She played against Wu Zewen several times in the past few days, and every time she lost, she burst into tears. Liu Xiaomeng already knew Wu Zewen's terrifying hand speed up.

Wu Zewen said, "It's okay."

Liu Xiaomeng said "Oh" and said, "You are too strong, I still can't connect the last song..."

Seeing his younger sister's depressed face, Liu Chuan couldn't help smiling and said, "Liu Xiaomeng, look at your talent, isn't it just a competition."

Liu Xiaomeng hung her head in frustration: "If other players are as good as Wu Zewen, I will definitely not even pass the preliminaries."

Wu Zewen turned around and comforted softly: "No, you are also very good."

Liu Xiaomeng is very aware of her own level. Today's preliminaries are probably useless, but it's good to go and witness the large-scale competition. Thinking about it this way, Liu Xiaomeng's face is also much more cheerful. She smiled and waved her hands and said, "You don't need to comfort me. , I just went to join in the fun, Zewen, please come on, you might be able to win the championship at your level."

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "What do you mean maybe? Our Zewen will definitely win the championship."

When Liu Chuan was in the hotel, he saw that Wu Zewen often scored full marks, so he was full of confidence in Wu Zewen.Wu Zewen didn't think he would definitely win the championship. After all, this grand prix brought together masters from all over the country. All he could do was to show his own level. It is the first time to participate in such a large-scale e-sports event alone, and it should be an eye-opener.

The three came to the competition site together, and there were many people queuing up outside the gate to enter. Liu Chuan took the two of them to the working group to sign in, and then Wu Zewen and Liu Xiaomeng were taken by the staff to the players of the Rhythm Master project In the preparation area, Liu Chuan came to the auditorium alone.

Unexpectedly, in the corridor, he almost collided with two people - Xiao Sijing and Su Shilun.

The two were chatting about something in a low voice. After seeing him, Su Shilun's eyes widened in surprise, and then he raised the corners of his mouth and said, "I read it right, right? Isn't this the God of Chuan who disappeared for a long time? "

Xiao Sijing next to him had deep eyes, glanced at Liu Chuan lightly, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"

Liu Chuan said with a smile: "Of course I came to see you, to cheer you on."

Xiao Sijing said, "Speak humanly."

"..." Lao Xiao really didn't understand humor, so Liu Chuan could only explain with a smile: "I accompanied my friends to play the Rhythm Masters competition. It was a coincidence that I met you. The martial arts competition is also starting today, right? It's A Group match?"

Xiao Sijing nodded: "That's right."

Liu Chuan said: "Then you guys go to work, I'll go over there to see the rhythm master, and then contact me."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand gracefully, turned around and left, Xiao Su and the two watched his back disappear into the aisle, and couldn't help but glance at each other.

Su Shilun rubbed his chin and asked, "He really came to see Rhythm Master? He also plays this kind of music game... Do you believe it?"

Xiao Sijing said calmly: "It's nothing surprising, Liu Chuan never plays cards according to common sense."

Su Shilun looked at Liu Chuan's back thoughtfully, Xiao Sijing gently put his arms around his shoulders, and said, "Don't worry about what Liu Chuan is here for, let's go, let's go back and arrange the next game, the first game today is Let the team members prepare early for the fight against flowers."

Su Shilun nodded, and followed Xiao Sijing to the martial arts arena.

TGA is divided into several venues because many events are held at the same time. Only heavyweight matches such as semi-finals and finals will be broadcast live on the largest main stage. The smaller sub-venue next to it is smaller than the inside.

In addition to the solo event "Master of Rhythm", the group competition of group events also kicked off today. Liu Chuan was not surprised to meet acquaintances at the scene, although he wanted to chat with Lao Xiao and Lu Shen , but he knew that Qixingcao was going to play soon, and the two captains and vice-captains didn't have time to chat with him.

Liu Chuan walked to the auditorium next to the Rhythm Master, and found a seat according to the ticket number. Fortunately, the seat was in the front row, so he could clearly see the contestants on the stage. Several contestants had already received their number plates. Today The on-site preliminaries will directly select the top 16 from the 4 people according to the ranking of the total score, and then the final match will be held in the afternoon. Liu Xiaomeng is No. 7 and Wu Zewen is No. 16. They will play in order.

There were not many spectators who came to watch the preliminaries. Most of them were relatives and friends of the players who came to cheer. The repertoire to be played in the preliminaries had already been announced on the official website. In key mode, play a track with the highest difficulty respectively, and finally add them together to calculate the total score.

During the game early in the morning, many people were a little nervous, and several players missed keys seriously, including Liu Xiaomeng.In the first four-key mode, she missed a key in the middle of playing, and her score was nearly 5 worse than the others.Wu Zewen performed normally, but he was obviously a bit unfamiliar with the first song, and he didn't get a perfect score, ranking No.[-] in the scoreboard.

In the national competition, there were indeed a lot of masters. Except for a few who performed abnormally due to nervousness, the others almost all combos without missing a single key!

Next is the second song, "Beethoven Virus" in 5-key mode, which is harder and faster than the previous one.

The more difficult the song, the easier it is to widen the level gap between the players. In the five-key mode, the number of players who missed keys gradually increased. Liu Xiaomeng's total score has dropped to No.10. Obviously, there is no hope. Entering the semi-final matchup in the afternoon, this girl can see it openly, the expression on her face is very relaxed, just now she missed two keys in a row under nervousness, and was still sticking out her tongue secretly.

However, in addition to Wu Zewen, Liu Chuan also noticed several contestants—No. 3, 6, 8, 11, and 14. These people have been very stable from the beginning, and they are obviously quite capable. They all scored SS results, plus Wu Zewen on the 16th, everyone is all combo of ALLCOMBO. In the standings, there is not much difference in the total scores of several people. It is within [-] to [-], which is actually one or two. A key thing.

——Look at the last song to decide the fate.

Even if he had great confidence in Wu Zewen, Liu Chuan couldn't help but get nervous. If he accidentally pressed a wrong button, the gap would suddenly widen.Therefore, this kind of large-scale competition is also a great test for the psychological quality of the players. Even if they are usually good, it is quite common for players to perform poorly on the spot.

On the big screen, the third song finally came out - it was the long-awaited six-key hard mode "Yang Guifei"!

This music is an official song written by a well-known composer for this Grand Prix. It combines a strong sense of rhythm and ancient rhythm. When Chuan was playing with Wu Zewen in the hotel, because he was not familiar with it, he dropped it several times in the middle... He later practiced this song specially, but it was quite difficult to hit all of them in a row.

The referee came to the stage and announced the start of the third song competition.

Starting from contestant No. 1, two people played the designated song in pairs. This song really made the contestants' level clear. Those with serious missing keys directly opened up their scores by [-] to [-] points. Among those masters.

Player No. 11, who Liu Chuan was not optimistic about before, missed two key positions in the middle, and he couldn't hit all of them in a row. To his surprise, the female player No. 8 connected a song very simply. Still got the SS result.

Even the commentator couldn't help but praise: "Female players in e-sports competitions are quite rare. Today's two female players performed well, especially the No. 8 player. Not nervous."

The male commentator echoed: "This contestant's award record is blank, but judging by her impromptu performance, it is obvious that she is also a master who has been playing for a long time."

In order to cooperate with the explanations of the two commentators, the director specially adjusted the ranking list to the big screen. The player who is currently ranked first is the No. 8 player. Liu Chuan raised his eyes and saw a line of information on the ranking list. ——

Contestant No. 8, Lin Tong, female, 21 years old, all three songs were judged to be SS, with a total score of 380 million, currently ranking first.

Liu Chuan couldn't help but look at the contestant's position—it was a girl who looked very temperamental, her facial features were not particularly beautiful, but they felt very comfortable when combined. She had long hair and black hair behind her head. He wore a simple ponytail with a hair tie, a camel sweater, and light blue slim-fit jeans underneath. The tight jeans were tucked into black short boots, and his legs were straight and slender.

The girl is very tall, and should be more than 168cm by visual inspection. The first impression is very clean and tidy.

The reason why Liu Chuan took an extra look at her was because the girl with the number plate was No. 8. She has already played three songs and ranked first in the total score. Obviously, she can enter the finals in the afternoon. Then, if Wu Zewen also made it to the final, this person may become Wu Zewen's strongest opponent.
