Chapter 75: Adjusting the Opening
Meanwhile, in the stands, the audience watched the screen with great interest, cheering from time to time. Then they heard a surprised scream from the center of the stands in Zone A.
“Wow! Isn’t that the Knight team that ranked last? They managed to complete a two-star tier-one mission!”
The rest of the audience quickly turned their attention to the screen that the audience member pointed to, causing a heated discussion.
“That’s the Knight named Moss. I recognize that sword on his back!”
“I never expected a Knight to survive a two-star Mystic Realm. I sure am surprised!”
“T-That’s not possible. But according to my understanding, two-star Mystic Realm missions aren’t all challenging. There should be different missions among the eight teams.”
“That explains it. Considering their exhausted appearances, they still have difficulties completing their simple two-star tier-one missions.”
“That’s commendable. A small team with a Knight can still manage to complete a two-star tier-one mission. That’s already very impressive. There were two teams with decent lineups in the same Mystic Realm just now, yet those guys got eliminated.”
“Hahaha, that looks like fate to me. Luck is also an indispensable factor in winning any competition!”
The audience members who talked about Team Moss thought Moss was lucky enough to survive the two-star Mystic Realm tier-one mission area.
The intense discussion about the bottom-ranking Team Moss was nothing less than curiosity. After all, Knights were a rare sight in such a large-scale competition.
Nonetheless, the audience still focused on the more popular teams. The Super Whirlwinds entered the two-star Mystic Realm’s tier-two mission area as the screen flashed.
They entered a lush tropical forest as several large strange birds circled the sky. The vegetation was abnormally large and unknown to humans.
Suddenly, dozens of giant crocodiles crawled out of the muddy river nearby. The crocodiles opened their mouths and revealed their sharp teeth, quickly surrounding the Super Whirlwinds.
“Oh no! The giant crocodiles are surrounding the Super Whirlwinds!” Someone in the audience stands shouted.
Almost everyone in the audience turned their attention to the screen with the highest exposure.
The audience members who rooted for the Super Whirlwinds felt their hearts jump to their throats when they saw their beloved team get surrounded by the giant crocodiles.
The unusually lively audience instantly fell silent. But the Super Whirlwinds appeared calm and composed through the screen. They did not look flustered by the giant crocodiles at all.
Some of the audience members with better attention to detail noticed a contemptuous smile on Captain Miller’s face.
Then the five members of the Super Whirlwinds attacked in unison. Their blades cast silver arcs among the giant crocodiles. Miller used his two dark-gold swords gracefully. Miller’s dark-gold swords continuously flashed as he caught the giant crocodiles off guard and killed them.
Tom, the Great Swordsman, used his Greatsword with unprecedented proficiency. It was evident that his swordsmanship was on another level. The giant crocodiles couldn’t get close to the other members of the Super Whirlwinds with him on the front lines.
White, the Grand Mage, was even more terrifying. With a radius of then meters, red and blue light formations appeared on the ground. The giant crocodiles who entered the area had weakened attacks, and their movements became sluggish, making it easier for the other members of the Super Whirlwinds to kill them.
Although Deng Lun, the Holy Alchemist, didn’t attack much, he threw several glass vials containing red liquid when the battle began. After landing, the red liquid produced red smoke and engulfed the twenty-meter wide area. The smaller crocodiles didn’t even have a chance to attack before they writhed on the ground in pain.
Then Will, the Crossbow Master, would go to the most efficient spots to shoot the giant crocodiles with his extraordinary monkey-like agility. He shot four arrows at a time without missing a single shot. Some of the arrows even nailed the crocodiles to the ground.
As the scene appeared on the screen, the audience erupted in thunderous applause. Everyone was overwhelmed by the Super Whirlwind’s stunning performance.
Cheers and praises echoed through the entire stage. The audience’s voices became even more constant as the atmosphere on the stage reached its peak since the start of the competition.
“The Super Whirlwinds are like a small-scale army!”
“The Super Whirlwind’s full power is simply terrifying. The combination of a Sword Master, Grand Mage, Great Swordsman, Holy Alchemist, and Crossbow Master is too powerful!”
“I love you, Super Whirlwinds! You guys are already champions in my heart!”
“That’s it? Where’s the suspense?”
“I will bet another one hundred on the Super Whirlwinds!”
At least more than half of the audience who rooted for other teams had turned to the Super Whirlwinds. It confirmed that the Super Whirlwinds were the ones to watch.
The audience’s crazy reactions influenced the directors and organizing committee in the VIP section.
Waves of praises reached the ears of Number Two High’s director, Taylor. His eyes glowed, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile at that moment. Taylor’s surging, domineering aura shocked his director brethren as they congratulated him.
“That’s awesome, Taylor! The Super Whirlwinds will undoubtedly win this year’s competition!” Number Four High’s director smiled brighter than anyone else and offered his praise.
“That team is simply amazing. Miller’s strength has improved yet again. Congratulations, Big Brother!” Number Five High’s director wasn’t willing to fall behind.
Number Ten High’s director, who was usually quiet, remained silent. But he widened his eyes at that moment. He stared at the screen and continuously nodded.
Even though Taylor received a lot of praise, Team Moss had entered the two-star Mystic Realm and started their tier-two mission, causing the cautious Taylor to become puzzled.
Team Moss consisted of a Grand Knight, Alchemist, Assassin, Water Element Summoner, and Dartmouth. These classes shouldn’t be strong enough to complete a tier-one mission in the two-star Mystic Realm mission area.
Taylor wondered, ‘Was there a stronger character among these guys, or is the Knight this strong? No matter how strong this Knight is, his abilities must be limited. Moreover, he’s only a Knight in its early stages. He can’t be a late-stage Knight, can he?’
‘The other classes aren’t worth mentioning, especially the Knight’s team. Am I overthinking?’
The audience once again cheered for the Super Whirlwinds as Taylor was in deep thought. Then he heard the president of the National Professional Alliance sound from behind him.
“The Super Whirlwinds are interesting!”
Taylor quickly turned his head and looked behind. Taylor discovered that the president was looking at him with praise as he nodded with a smile. He immediately smiled and nodded in response.
Then the secretary-general turned to the president and asked, “What do you think, President. That Taylor Kid isn’t half bad, right?”
The president smiled and nodded. “Yeah, he’s not bad at all. Number Two High’s performance is impressive.”
“Then the resources we have Number Two High are…” The secretary-general rolled his eyes and asked.
“Let’s continue watching the competition first. We’ll talk in my office about this later.” The president didn’t express his opinion and continued to look at the screen with great interest.
Meanwhile, the director of White Deer High focused his attention on Team Moss. He was delighted when he saw Team Moss clear their tier-one mission. He never expected Team Moss to complete the mission, only third to the two more popular teams in the competition.
But when the director saw Team Moss entering the tier-two mission area, encountering a lounge of Terror Monitor Lizards, his heart went to his throat.
…
Meanwhile, an angry voice echoed throughout the A001 building of a gambling ring, “What the f*ck is wrong with you?! Team Moss has started their tier-two mission, yet you refused to adjust your odds?! Do you not want to be a manager anymore?!”
“You promised me that they wouldn’t make it past the tier-one mission. I won’t trust you again in the future. In addition, the others have already adjusted their bets on the Super Whirlwinds!”
The same thing happened in the other gambling rings. Only the people in the Hausmann Gambling Ring grinned from ear to ear.
The odds of Team Moss not surviving the tier-one mission were so high that they attracted several buy-ins. The Hausmann Gambling Ring made a lot of money with just one bet.
