Mermaid Throne

After three consecutive days of competition, Tao Yiran's name quickly became known to the audience like an infectious disease.

The average attack speed of 10 minutes, the figure with no strength at all, the poor equipment and the blank background are all elements that make this name more legendary.

This is what the tournament organization wants.Finally, at the ticket office the day before the battle, Tao Yiran's latest nickname "Skeleton Killer" was displayed immediately, and his opponent was a man known as "Star of Nanzhou", so even though the ticket price was three times higher than usual times, it was still sold out within less than an hour of the sale.

The teenager with the name of killer is currently choosing a computer in an electrical appliance store.

Before the final battle, he had two days to rest. After sleeping for a full day, Tao Yiran finally took Rong Xuan who couldn't wait to go to the electrical appliance store.

The 2000 yuan that was robbed was always Rong Xuan's heart disease, but the robber seemed to have watched Tao Yiran's game, and disappeared without a trace during this time.

There were a total of seven games, each with a minimum prize of 3000 and a maximum of [-]. In addition to Rong Xuan's bet, the two of them earned more than [-] gold in just three days. Rong Xuan finally understood why so many people kept climbing. Into this bloody ring.

The boss is also a spectator of the God of Fighting competition, so he recognized the recent celebrity at a glance, and hurried forward to greet him attentively. When he heard that he wanted to buy a computer, he immediately recommended the latest model with a swastika.

The two little ghosts shook their heads at the same time in fright.

Thinking of Tao Yiran's poor equipment, the boss instantly understood it, so he took the two of them to a corner and pointed to a dusty machine—a model that had just been discontinued, but the basic functions could still be met. "Three thousand gold."

Rong Xuan looked at Tao Yiran expectantly.Their budget was originally only two thousand gold, which is the second-hand second-hand machine in the corner, but now they have three thousand gold...

"Two thousand eight hundred gold." Tao Yiran took out the money and slapped it on the table.

The corner of the boss's eyebrows twitched: "The cheapest thing, don't bargain."

"Tomorrow night's game, I have a ticket." Tao Yiran took out a sign from his pocket. "Sell you at the original price."

"...[-] gold, give me a ticket." The boss who couldn't buy a ticket knew the price of scalpers outside, and quickly lowered the price.

"Just two thousand five."

"...a deal!" The boss gritted his teeth, and when he accepted the money, he suddenly leaned over and asked in a low voice, "How sure are you for tomorrow?"

Tao Yiran raised his eyebrows: "...What, want to bet?"

The boss gave him a "you get it" smile.

"If I win," Tao Yiran pointed to the oxygen generator in the corner, "sell me a [-]% discount."

The boss looked at him with a dark face.It took a long time to ask: "Then what if you lose?"

"If I lose, I don't even have a chance to come back alive. What else can I promise?" Tao Yiran smiled contemptuously, picked up the computer with one hand and left.

As soon as he got home, Rong Xuan couldn't wait to install the computer.

Tao Yiran watched his operation from the sidelines, he could understand the hardware installation in the front, but the letters typed on the keyboard by the little hand at the back made him dizzy. "What are you doing?"

"Independent Umbrella Program." Rong Xuan didn't turn his head, his small face looked very serious in front of the screen, "Most of human computers are pre-installed with systems that can be monitored by the government. Do my thing."

Tao Yiran looked at it for a while, covered his eyes and wailed, then turned around and left the room consciously.

Rong Xuan looked back at the closed door, and after confirming that the other party had left, he touched behind his ear.

Hidden behind her white ear is a metal rod as thin as a toothpick and as long as a fingernail.It was the highest-level identity card in the world that only purebred mermaids possessed.

Rong Xuan, the sole heir of the Rong family in the Western Pacific, all his money and privileges are hidden in this small identity card.

The metal rod cannot be inserted into an ordinary computer, but when it touches the signal input port of the computer, a laser beam is emitted from the tail, which is connected to the computer like a data cable.

After Rong Xuan authenticated his identity through complex means such as voice, iris, fingerprint, and mermaid password, he finally logged into the largest library in human society through the channel of the independent umbrella.

All human knowledge is stored here, as well as the latest and even most secret news.The information shared and exchanged by politicians from various countries through the library channel can only be read by the highest level of authority, and the information encryption technology that human beings think is superb has long been deciphered by the genius among the mermaids. A back door for purebred mermaid families to enter.

Rong Xuan now uses this back door to enter the most advanced information base of mankind.

He dared not use any resources in the information card, let alone log in to any mermaid network with this card. He could only use the human information base to understand what happened in the current mermaid world.

When he saw that the Miller family had taken over the Western Pacific affairs, the little mermaid sat blankly in his seat, unable to react for a long time.

Uriel Miller, that demon...

He clenched his fists, his eyes flushed.

There are other bits and pieces of news, all of which are far away in the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Rong Xuan hastily browsed through it, and suddenly discovered an important news from a week ago——

The biennial Battle for the Mermaid Throne will take place next month.

Similar to the human race of fighting gods, the Mermaid Throne Battle is also aimed at improving the fighting ability of the entire race and selecting the most powerful person as the new leader.

The mermaids have lived with humans for tens of thousands of years, and the ruling class is almost the same. The most capable mermaids occupy most of the positions in the ruling class, while the mermaids of the lower class want to join in, and the only way to join is through the mermaid throne battle that treats everyone equally.

The biggest difference between the battle for the mermaid throne and the human god battle is that even if you have already entered the ruling class, you can still participate.Because the mermaid who ascends to the throne will be the undoubted mermaid strong, he can challenge the current mermaid king in every sea area, and after winning, he can become the new mermaid king through the mermaid referendum.

Any ambitious mermaid is eager to seek power and usurp the throne in this way.

But these mermaids don't know that even the most powerful mermaid king has a purebred mermaid family who supports him behind him.These mysterious mermaids who cannot reveal their identities can only affect the operation of the entire mermaid world by controlling the mermaid king.

Rong Xuan looked at the screen, dazed for a moment.It wasn't until Tao Yiran's voice came from the door that he quickly exited the interface and put away his ID card.

The boy walked into the room, still holding the training equipment in his hand, covered in sweat.

Seeing Rong Xuan thinking about the black screen of the computer, he took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to his mouth.

Rong Xuan bit his mouth habitually.It wasn't until his mouth was filled with a different sweetness than usual that he raised his eyes in surprise to see the boy who was chewing the remaining half.

"What's wrong?" Tao Yiran asked strangely, "Isn't it delicious? I specially bought the most expensive one."

"...delicious." Rong Xuan lowered his eyes and pouted his mouth, the sweetness in his mouth did not dissipate for a long time.

A total of 20 players were shortlisted for the final battle of the points competition.After these 20 players are randomly combined for two games, the winners can enter the knockout round.

Tao Yiran was particularly conspicuous among the 20 people.Small in stature, youngest, with no background, not even a decent signature outfit, he's the face of the poor world.

But it is such a dick-like temperament that has gained a lot of attention.

As soon as Tao Yiran's lottery result came out, the scalper's price was tripled outside immediately for his show.

People look forward to seeing his miracles, but at the same time secretly think that even if he fails, he is beyond his control.

Before going on stage, Rong Xuan grabbed Tao Yiran's shorts, the boy was wearing a wristband, and looked at him suspiciously. "I have studied your opponent today." The little mermaid said.

"...Relying on a computer?" Tao Yiran's biggest impression of that electronic product was a string of strings on the screen like a heavenly book, so no matter how many heavenly secrets Rong Xuan told him, he would not have much doubt.

"That guy is notoriously difficult to deal with. I'm afraid your previous quick fights won't work on him." Rong Xuan has a good brain. Before coming here, he wrote down all the information of those 20 people. He can tell a thing or two about which two opponents he draws.

"Oh." The boy replied casually, obviously not taking it very seriously.

Rong Xuan was dissatisfied: "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will win every battle. If you refuse to listen, you are underestimating the enemy."

Tao Yiran patted his head: "Listen, it's not like there was a real fight, who knows how difficult he is?"

"You illiterate!" Rong Xuan couldn't see his brutalist approach, and became angry from embarrassment.If it wasn't for him, why would he waste two or three hours on research...

"Besides, I don't need to study these guys." Tao Yiran loosened his muscles and showed a stern smile, "It's useless to beat them with skills. There are so many guys waiting for me to fail. If If I don’t win, I’ll be tougher, and none of them will be convinced.” As soon as he finished speaking, deafening cheers came from outside the aisle, he half-bent down, hugged Rong Xuan with one hand, and pressed his face on his shoulder: “ Let's go, let's make money."

The little mermaid blushed from his sudden action: "What are you doing..."

The protest was immediately suppressed by the cheers on both sides of the exit channel.

Rong Xuan raised his head slightly from his arms, only to see crazier audience than the previous two days and various vulgar and violent slogans.

The underground arena has become a huge mental hospital, and people who usually keep their own place have completely lost their minds in such an atmosphere.They want to see the strongest physical collision, preferably with blood, and no one can die, but it is definitely violence that pushes the existing limits of human beings.

The little mermaid finally understood the meaning of Tao Yiran's words just now.

If he can't win here by pure hand-to-hand combat, no matter how beautifully he wins, he still can't win the approval of these lunatics.

The little mermaid pressed against his chest, frowning and whispering: "Stupid human beings." He clearly declared that human beings still rely on skills to defeat mermaids, but deep down they still differentiated people based on their physical strength.

How unfair it is to Tao Yiran, who is born with insufficient conditions.

The pair on stage had just decided the winner, and the host couldn't wait to call out Tao Yiran's name.As a new star, he has too many gimmicks.

The boy walked into the preparation area with the child in his arms, and Rong Xuan found that even he had attracted a lot of attention.

"He brought the mascot again!" Rong Xuan was taken aback by the host's excited voice.

"Yeah, I don't bring a coach, but I only bring a beautiful child as a mascot. I heard that this habit is only found in Siberia. Is this child not a descendant of Siberia?"

... who is the mascot? !Rong Xuan looked angrily at the two eloquent hosts, but the two quickly brought up the topic of the Siberian fighting race's way of life, leaving him no time to protest.

As soon as Tao Yiran stepped onto the ring, his opponent straightened his belt in front of him.This kind of provocative action did not make the young man explode, but when the bell rang, the young man who took the initiative almost used all his strength to hit his lower body.

The opponent, who had escaped in embarrassment, cursed and started to fight back.

In all fairness, this person is not weak. Most of his moves are trained by simulated evolutionary people. His movements are clean and neat without wasting any energy. The most frightening thing is that even if he is attacked, he can still attack without reducing his attack speed.

When Tao Yiran was hit in the boxing ring for the first time, the cheers from the audience even made people mistakenly think that the victory had been decided.

In the 10th minute of the match, even the host expressed disfavor towards Tao Yiran—once the young man known for his quick wins is dragged into a protracted battle, the probability of failure will be greatly increased.

Rong Xuan clenched his fists, wishing he could go up and replace Tao Yiran.

He can hate Tao Yiran, but he can't tolerate others treating that guy with malice.

"He got hit again!" the host yelled, "The Skeleton Killer was hit for the second time! How many times can his small body withstand it? I hope the opponent will be merciful, what if all the skeletons are broken up! "

There was laughter in the audience.

Rong Xuan was so angry that his face turned red, he kicked the boxing ring resentfully, and yelled at the top: "Tao Yiran, can you do it! This kind of idiot can't win, you have the nerve to sign up!"

As soon as the words fell, the opponent who had been pressing on every step of the way was suddenly hit in the abdomen, and then the attack fell on him like a gust of wind.The most frightening thing is that every move is exactly the same as the way he just attacked.

It's like a replicant finally found his chance for revenge.

When Tao Yiran stomped on the man, he gestured his middle finger in the direction of the host. "Quickly count down." He looked coldly at the referee who was trying to delay the opponent to get up.

The person who was stepped on the ground tried to get up several times, but after being hit in the ribs by Tao Yiran, he finally passed out.

"If you don't count the special ones, I'll hang you on the lamppost." Tao Yiran yelled at the dumbfounded referee again.

In the first match, Tao Yiran won in [-] minutes.

When he came down from the stage, Rong Xuan's blush from being excited hadn't dissipated. He climbed the fence, asked Tao Yiran how he was feeling, and glanced around triumphantly.

a bunch of idiots!Look who's still on stage right now!

The host was obviously slapped in the face, but years of experience still made him congratulate Tao Yiran without changing his face.The audience who had just booed began to boo. They resented Tao Yiran for causing them to lose a game again, but they always behaved so listlessly before the game, which made people less motivated to bet.

Tao Yiran stared in the direction of the booing, showing a provocative smile.

This scene just happened to be punched onto the screen, causing even greater confusion.

Seeing the atmosphere, the organizer was so happy that he could only wish to arrange another dozen or twenty matches for Tao Yiran.

"You can win to be more beautiful!" Rong Xuan still couldn't let go of others' ridicule.

"Nonsense, you do what you want." Having said that, he picked up Rong Xuan and jumped off the ring, and was surrounded by everyone, struggling to break through and leave.

Not long after the two left, the bonus number was displayed on the screen.

If the two of them were willing to stand obediently in the stadium and accept the cheers from the audience, perhaps they would not have any dissatisfaction seeing this number at this moment.

Three thousand gold.

This is the point race with the highest prize money in a single game so far. There is almost no suspense for Tao Yiran to win the next game. What everyone is looking forward to is how long it will take him to win.

The high bonus means that this poor boy has entered the vision of the upper-level organization, and what awaits him will be a more complicated future.

Sure enough, in the last match of the afternoon, Tao Yiran defeated the top 8 players who were one round older than him in 32 minutes.

When awarding the knockout status ring, the chairman of the competition held Tao Yiran's hand and smiled lightly: "Tao Yiran, welcome to Nanzhou City."

The young man's face darkened immediately, he shook off his hand fiercely, and said coldly, "Don't worry about it."

This scene was misunderstood by everyone as the young man playing a big game, and all kinds of malicious ridicules were immediately made.Only Tao Yiran knew that this damn chairman was probably someone who met him two years ago.

He was never ashamed of what happened two years ago, but that didn't mean he was willing to accept it as an excuse for others to laugh at him.

In the end, the only thing that can move the two little devils is the amount of money awarded in the two games.

To get five thousand gold all at once, even Rong Xuan was stunned.

"I want to change my computer." The poor and short-sighted child only thought of this at first.

"Change... wait, there's no hurry." Tao Yiran, who had been lazily, suddenly walked outside over the little mermaid.

Outside the arena, several people smoked in a circle.

Tao Yiran walked over, patted one of them on the shoulder, and before he could react, he punched them down one by one.

"Repay the money." Tao Yiran rode on the man who had been beaten once, with a stern look on his face.

Unlike the last time he was beaten and had to run away, the young man who made rapid progress in the boxing ring every day was like a sharpened knife, showing his momentum and strength.

"...All, all spent!" The man who had seen his skills could no longer be arrogant, his face turned pale with fright, "Besides, you have won so much money..."

"I will never think too much money! Pay back the money!" The boy said and went to take out his pocket.

"It's really spent! It's the next day! Everyone took it to drink..." the man explained with tears in his eyes.

"Do it," Tao Yiran punched viciously, raised his body, looked around, pointed at two of them, "you, and you, take off your watch!" Then he instructed Rong Xuan, "go Stripped off his shirt, that's LW's, and that guy's gold necklace."

When the two finally managed to scrape together enough items worth 2000 yuan to leave, there was only a sobbing man left behind.

Rong Xuan was halfway there, and couldn't help but look back at them.

The humiliation of the past has been retaliated, but now, they can no longer even be called opponents.

"Still leaving?" Tao Yiran turned around and urged him.

Without any hesitation, Rong Xuan grabbed the man's trouser legs and happily went home together.
