When I saw Rocky's smile, I knew it was over.

In Norse mythology, Loki is a time bomb.In the 21st century, everyone does not act according to the rules, and his flamboyant personality and rich personality have become something worthy of praise, but it seems that he is not so maverick.

But that doesn't mean Loki will do everything well.

After half a year of stable operation of the indeterminate () bomb, I somehow felt that it would explode soon.

Especially Rocky on the stage raised his hand slowly and took out the questions from the lottery box.

The topic of his impromptu speech was to explain the reasons for the rapid development of science and technology in the world after the nineteenth century.

In theory, asking a foreign student to speak on such a topic, Rocky has a natural political correctness.

however……

After seeing the title, Loki's smile was even more harmless.

All of us realized: it really is screwed.

Throughout the whole game, all of us were in fear.

The opponent is a private middle school from Boston, which is quite difficult.Even if we have the help of Hermes, the patron of competitive games, we haven't stopped targeted training and tutoring in the past few months, and the opponent's score is still catching up.

Before the last session, our score was two points higher than theirs.

There is only a difference of two points, we are so nervous that we are dying, and the other party is very angry.

After all, it is a great humiliation for elite students to let a community middle school lower their grades.

Then came the impromptu speaking session.

I... I was so nervous that I almost threw up!

After the other party finished his speech, Loki slowly stood up from his position.

The camera has been following him.

The student suit outlines his thin figure, his long black hair is tied back, revealing a tall nose bridge and a thin lip.Rocky's facial features are very three-dimensional, and in Apollo's words, he is "very photogenic". I guess he will be able to exchange a lot of enthusiastic fans on the Internet in the future.

Especially I'm sure, he's going to make a big fuss next time.

When I knew that trouble was about to happen and didn't know what would happen, I was anxious and even slightly expectant.

Of course I understand that my anticipation is not only waiting for what kind of tricks Loki will come up with, but also a kind of self-abandonment of premature death and early death.

Standing in front of the stage, he first greeted the host and the three judges politely.

Loki's voice was clear and clear, and he dropped his ironic Danish accent.

As long as he wants, the standard American accent is fluent and smooth.

"The topic I drew was to develop my views on the rapid development of science and technology in the world after the nineteenth century." He said.

The kinder lady among the three judges said, "Mr. Ould, you are Danish."

Loki: "Exactly."

Judge: "Then I look forward to your opinion."

Loki nodded, then maintained a gentle smile.

"Regarding the development of science and technology in the nineteenth century, I would like to first talk about why the United States is so rich."

When his words fell to the ground, the judges also laughed.

It's not uncommon for a quiz, or a quiz in Los Angeles, to start like that.

The judges have also heard it countless times over the past few years.

Even if Rocky cuts in as a Dane, it's not surprising.

but--

I just thought he would be a surprise.

Loki raised his hands seemingly casually, first towards the podium, and then in an instant, he raised his chin.

Facing the camera, in front of all the judges, the tall, thin Danish handsome guy directly stretched out his hands.

"I think," he said with a bright smile, "you might as well ask the Indians!"

I:"……"

At that moment, I heard the entire competition venue gasp in unison.

The smiles of the three judges froze on their faces on the spot.

Rocky was still impassioned on stage: "Ask Cuba, ask Mexico, ask Europe's cane sugar, rubber, gold and silver minerals, where do they all come from!"

Except for his voice, there was a dead silence in the room.

"You snatched this land from the British hundreds of years ago, but you didn't think about giving it back to the people it belonged to. And what you call protecting culture and civilization is driving the victims to the reserve' Jail'. In the 21st century, apartheid is still in use!"

At this moment, I thank Apollo from the bottom of my heart.

First of all, he taught us how to face the camera without changing expressions.

Second, with his two high-profile appearances first, I've done a fair amount of desensitization to embarrassing scenes.

So much so that when the photographer frantically turned the lens on the rest of our team, I could still keep my expression unbroken.

The point is, Rocky is really good at speeches.

But there is nothing he can't do to show off his abilities with his tongue.

Even if he was speaking on a sensitive issue, Rocky's next speech, from Spain and Portugal to the United Kingdom and then to the founding of the United States, piled up a set of historical facts, pointing out that you have no good things, and the logic is complete, Quoting the classics, it is quite wonderful.

Although it was an impromptu speech, when he opened his mouth, what he said was quite technical.

If someone suspects that he bribed the judges and falsified the lottery, I... I will definitely believe it!

A 3-minute speech feels like a century to everyone but Rocky.

His free speech session ended, followed by the judges scoring.

Then Loki changed to a more relaxed stance.

Sitting on the preparation seat, I was about five or six meters away from him.

From a certain distance, I still clearly saw Loki moving his fingers standing behind the podium.

Then, the familiar divine power spread from his fingertips——

It's not just me who feels it.

I quickly turned my head and saw Hermes and Pandora also showing shocked expressions.

Next, all the judges gave extremely high marks.

Thinking about it with his toes, everyone knows that Loki used his divine power to control the judges!

Even the judge who was cynic at the beginning gave high marks, even the highest marks.

In an instant, there was a huge difference in scores between us and the Boston school, and we won the game with an overwhelming advantage.

It's just that no one applauded.

The atmosphere became very weird.

Even the experienced host didn't know how to save the game, and ended the competition hastily.

The whole accident was over in just a few minutes.

As soon as the competition was over, the audience began to talk a lot, and the staff was in a mess.

And Loki?

He returned to the team swaggeringly, and followed us away swaggeringly in front of the staff with green faces, without any guilt or explanation at all.

I don't even think it's a problem that the competition went wrong now - the quiz is not live anyway!

By the time we left the field, before getting into the car, Hermes grabbed Loki.

"what are you doing?!"

Hermes, who has always been a philistine, couldn't help it anymore: "Lo... Kaynas, you said you wanted to participate in the quiz, but now you messed it up yourself?"

Loki: "Hey, don't be mad—"

He didn't finish his sentence.

Because Meryl, who was walking last, rushed over suddenly.

My small, gentle-tempered Ome, rarely showed anger on her delicate face.

She even gave Loki a gentle push.

Meryl: "Kanas, are you crazy?!"

In all fairness, Meryl's accusations and shoving were harmless.

She didn't have any strength—and neither did Meryl herself.

But when he met Luo Ji, a dramatist, he still took a few steps back and covered his chest.

He seemed to be surprised, his deep blue eyes were full of innocence: "Why, is something I said wrong?"

Meryl: "..."

I knew Meryl was really mad.

Although my Xiaoqingmei has a good personality, I know that she is a very serious person.

Usually, she can do whatever she wants, but once she wants to win, no one can cause trouble.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have won platinum trophies for so many games.

"Okay, Meimei," I patted her and lowered my voice, "I'll talk to Kainas."

Seeing that Meryl was not continuing to pursue, Loki covered his chest and quickly pursed his mouth, then turned and left under the eyes of everyone.

It was not ready and we went back in a car.

I sighed faintly: I am tired.

After thinking for a while, I took a step and caught up with Loki.

He had no scruples about leaving the team, as if a speech would have no effect.Even if I walked to his side, Loki just turned his head: "What are you doing?"

Me: "... Where did you get so angry?"

Rocky smiled.

"It's just boring."

He said indifferently: "How boring is it just to win the game? Isn't this more exciting?"

Me: "If you want to use your divine power to solve everything, why come to Changjie Middle School as a transfer student?"

When I applied to the school four years later, the staff who controlled the Ivy League stamped their approval and it was over!

If it's that simple, who needs to work hard.

Even if I don't have any special abilities, I understand this.

If you control the judges, you can withdraw the results; if you control all the staff, the competitors will also question it.

In the 21st century, the world is not so closed.I don't believe that there are any gods in this world who are so powerful that they can influence the thinking of the whole world.

Loki understood what I didn't finish.

He stopped and turned his head.

The thin and tall "transfer student" chose to lower his head slightly and look down into my eyes.

"Don't worry," the smile on Loki's face never changed, "I have a solution."

"what?"

Loki took out his phone directly.

He made a phone call right in front of me.

After a while, the voice of the god of new media came from the hands-free mobile phone microphone.

"How can it be so fast," Xin Shen yawned lazily, and said directly, "'That thing' hasn't appeared yet."

"That's not it."

Rocky replied: "There is news, do you want it?"

I:"……"

I knew immediately what he was up to.

The listless voice on the phone instantly revived.

"Ok?"

I can almost imagine the appearance of the internet celebrity beauty on the other end of the phone immediately getting up.The god of new media became excited: "What news?"

Rocky's tone was very lazy: "The judges of the National Middle School Students Knowledge Competition openly discriminated against foreign students, but the students fought back on the spot but were suppressed and blocked."

The god of new media: "You want to destroy a person."

Loki: "Huh?"

God of new media: "That's great!!!"

There was a terrible laugh on the other end of the phone.

"Send me the materials," said the god of new media, "I promise you will make global news headlines!"

I:"…………"

Crazy, the world is crazy.
