Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 770 Extra 8: Extraordinary Sports Meeting
In the broadcasting booth at the stadium, commentator Brooke said: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first Super Games, a competition that transcends time and space!
"I'm the commentator Brooke, and the person next to me is today's special guest, Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards."

The oval-faced Lieutenant General said slowly, "Hello, everyone."

We invited her to be the special guest today because she is very knowledgeable and can help explain or interpret some extraordinary abilities.

There was immediate warm applause from the audience. Some of them were crew members of the "Golden Dreamland", and they were the first to applaud.

Other spectators included the official Extraordinary Phalanx of the Atlantis Empire, the Phalanx of the Church of Orthodox God, the Phalanx of Secret Organizations, and the "Amon Phalanx" and so on.

Commentator Brook: “I can already feel everyone’s enthusiasm and anticipation for the next game.

"The competition will start soon! The first event is the track and field competition, the 100-kilometer sprint!"

"Now please invite the contestants to enter. We see that the first athlete to enter is old Mr. Hermes, the 'Insighter'!"

There was warm applause.

Brooke laughed and said, “If it wasn’t a special match, I would have thought that an old man like this was the referee.

“Oh, no, the referee seems a bit old.

"Okay, the second contestant is coming up. He is 'The Elder of Dirty Words' Steve."

There was almost no reaction from the audience, only the Aurora Club audience in the Secret Array cheered loudly.

The commentator explained: "I think many people don't know this player. He is an angel from the 'Church of the True Creator' and has been in the 'God-Forsaken Land' since the early Fourth Epoch.

"Okay, the third contestant is here. He is the Pope of the Church of Storms, Gad II!"

The Orthodox Church's phalanx applauded enthusiastically, and many members of the Storm Church even released lightning to cheer for the Pope.

Brooke continued to introduce: "Contestant number four is the rarely seen Viev. Ms. Edwards, I don't even know the origins of this contestant. Do you know her deeds?"

Edwina said slowly, "It is recorded in the Holy Scriptures of the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun that this is a 'Light Chaser'."

The flattery in the audience has already begun: "He is indeed a learned captain!"

The commentator smiled and said, "Thanks to Vice Admiral Iceberg for the answer. When we returned to the competition venue, contestant number five had already appeared. Oh my god, it was Amon.

"Haha, this is Amon who just failed in the competition for the 'Lord of Mysteries'. He is currently just a 'Trojan Horse of Fate'. Are the Amons in the audience just bluffing him?

"Oh no, my explanation seems to have made Amon a little angry. He is now..."

The commentator's voice suddenly disappeared from the microphone. Two or three seconds later, Lieutenant General Iceberg cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Amon, please return the commentator to me, or you will lose your chance to compete."

Brook then showed up: "Oh my god, well, I must admit that even if Amon is just the 'Trojan Horse of Fate', he is also a very strong player!"

The commentator calmed down a bit and continued, "Let's continue. Contestant number six is ​​Antigonus! After losing his uniqueness as the Fool and a part of his characteristics as the Mysterious Servant, he has become quite normal.

"Oh, contestant number seven is also in place, it's Ms. Fors Wall! She is now also a 'planeswalker'!"

The audience of the Atlantis Square applauded wildly!

Brooke continued to explain: “All the players are in place, and we see the referee has also arrived.

"Now let me briefly explain the rules. Each contestant can use his or her extraordinary ability, or attack each other. The first contestant to ring the bronze bell 100 kilometers away from the starting point will be the first place in this competition!
“It should be noted that this is a bell provided by the Emperor of Atlantis, Hobert. It cannot be ‘stolen’, damaged by any extraordinary power, or affected by any extraordinary power. Unless the contestant personally shakes the hammer in the middle of the bell, it will not make any sound.

"While the contestants are making their final preparations, let's ask Vice Admiral Iceberg to introduce us to the favorites to win the championship!"

Edwina said: "There are many favorites to win this time, including 'Light Chaser' Viev and the Pope of the Storm Church, 'Scourge' Gad II. One is as fast as light, and the other is as fast as lightning. They both have considerable advantages.

“And Amon also has the ability to steal distance and appear at the finish line in an instant. This ability cannot be ignored.

"Not to mention Ms. Fors. For an angel on this path, 100 kilometers is only a short distance. They can almost 'flash' to the end point.

“I think all four of these players are the favorites to win.”

She paused and continued, "Finally, let's talk about the other three contestants. Although Hermes the Insighter is an angel of the Audience Path with strange abilities, he does not have a clear advantage in terms of speed.

"There are two other contestants, 'The Elder of Dirty Words' Stifel and 'The Miracle Master' Antigonus. Although they can both travel to their destination from the spirit world, they will definitely be a step slower than the other contestants.

"Of course, if there is a fast way among the spirits herded by Elder Dirty Words, then this No. 2 contestant can also compete for the first place.

"Finally, I want to make it clear that the above is entirely based on my extraordinary ability. The specific results will depend on the players' on-the-spot performance."

Commentator Brooke said: "Let us thank the beautiful 'Iceberg Vice Admiral' for the wonderful commentary. We can see that the contestants have made their final preparations and have come to their respective tracks. The competition is about to begin!

“Okay, the referee has signaled the players to take their positions.

“The referee raised his gun…wait a minute, the referee clearly gave the order, but why didn’t I hear the gunshot?
"Oh my god, it's not that there was no gunshot, but the sound was stolen by Amon, who used it to interfere with other contestants and gained a certain advantage.

"Haha, I can only say that Amon is still the same Amon!"

Brooke spoke faster and faster: "However, the other contestants also reacted quickly, but Amon had already taken the lead. He stole the distance first and appeared at the finish line.

"Haha, a magical scene appeared. As soon as He appeared at the finish line, His body was covered by an illusory light gate. Oh, it turned out that Fors had taken action. She sent Amon back to the starting point!

"At this time, Viev and Gad II are equally matched in their respective abilities and tied for first place. However, we see that Fors did not compete for the first place. Instead, he prioritized sending Amon back to the starting point. It seems that there is some personal grudge between them."

He spoke so fast that he didn't need to breathe, and he could say several sentences in one second, but the audience could still hear him clearly. It was obvious that he used some extraordinary ability. Brook continued like a machine gun: "Oh, I just realized that Antigonus is still at the starting point!
"What is he doing? He seems to be making a wish? Is it too late to wish for first place?

"Oh my god, a huge wave suddenly came at the finish line of the race. Who could have imagined that a tsunami would happen in a race where there was no sea around!
“No, it was Gad II who took action. He passed through the tsunami easily, but the tsunami hit the other contestants.

"This tsunami is really weird. Weiyev was about to transform into a ray of light and rush up to the sky to avoid the tsunami, but a huge whirlpool appeared in the tsunami! This whirlpool actually sucked him in.

“No, no, no, he wasn’t sucked in. What was sucked in was a phantom of Viyev. He transformed into a pure white ball of light and rose into the air.

"He was like a little sun, lighting up the entire arena. Not only was the light strong, but we saw Gad II, who was about to grab the rope under the bronze bell, suddenly stopped!
“Vieve’s strong light also has the effect of preventing people from having any thoughts!

“Ah, at this moment, Amon, who had just returned to the starting point, stole Gad II’s position. Amon is now closest to the bronze bell!

"But Amon was trapped, He was trapped by His own shadow!
"We saw that Stifel and Hermes, who were in the second echelon, caught up with us!

“As Vice Admiral Iceberg said just now, although some abilities are faster, the players’ on-the-spot performance is also crucial!

"The players in the first group have already started a fierce fight, and none of them has been able to grab the rope. At this time, the second group has already caught up!

“The competition became more intense. Viyev transformed into a ball of light and landed on the ground. He passed Amon and was about to get the rope of the bronze bell.

"Wait, why did he walk somewhere else? Why did he shake the pillars supporting the bronze bell? According to the rules, the bronze bell would not ring even if he shook it like this.

"Oh, I see. He was hypnotized by Mr. Hermes! He mistook the pillar for the rope of the bronze bell!
"Oh my god, just as Ms. Edwina said, the ability of the 'audience' path is very strange...

“No, no, no, I take back what I said, because an even more bizarre scene happened. Antigonus suddenly appeared next to the pillar supporting the bronze bell without any warning.

"Could it be that when He made a wish just now, He hoped to appear next to the bronze bell instantly?

"We don't have time to make specific guesses now. A head has appeared on each of the shoulders of 'Elder Whisperer' Stifel, which indicates that He is going to use His herding ability!
"The head on His left shoulder instantly became very charming, and He used the power of the witch, and Antigonus' legs turned into stone and fell to the ground!

"We see that Antigonus is trying to climb the rope to the bell, but he is still a step too slow.

"Stiver surpassed Antigonus, He picked up the rope, and the first place was going to... wait, He passed the rope to Hermes who was right behind him?
“Oh my God, what kind of operation is this?
"Ah, I see. Hermes hypnotized Stifer, and he must have hypnotized this 'Elder of Dirty Words'.

"When exactly did it happen? I know. It should be when both of them were in the second echelon at the same time. At that time, Hermes had already quietly invaded Stifer's spiritual world!

“Now the rope will be handed over to Hermes. We see three contestants gathered by the bronze bell. They are Styphus and Hermes who are standing, and Antigonus who is a little further away and still crawling forward.

“To be honest, Antigonus is at a disadvantage for participating in such a competition! His abilities are more suitable for performing some operations in secret, rather than fighting head-on with the opponent!

"Just in the blink of an eye, the situation changed again. We saw an illusory door appear on Stiver's chest, and Fors appeared next to the bronze bell!
“Hermes was just about to take over the rope, but Fors got it first!

"She swung the rope and was about to ring the bell...

“No, no, no, the scene changed again. Amon and Fors exchanged their fates. At this time, half of Amon’s body stuck out from Stiver’s chest, while Fors was trapped in the distance by her own shadow!

"Oh my god, this round of fighting is not over yet. Fors has trapped Amon and Stifer in a secret place..."

Dang rang~
The bronze bell was rung!
Bruce stood up excitedly: "The bell was rung, and surprisingly, it was Antigonus who rang the bell!
“Oh my God, it’s no exaggeration to say that this is a miracle, because just now, He was still at a disadvantage and was crawling towards the bronze bell.

“We see that He now passes Hermes, firmly grasps the rope, and rings the bronze bell!

"At this time, Fors was dealing with Amon, Hermes was removing Stifer's hypnosis, hoping to use Stifer to deal with Amon, and Viev and Gad II were also attacking each other.

"At such a moment, Antigonus suddenly made a move and won the first place! This result is so unexpected!"

The commentator took a deep breath and said, "Ms. Edwina, from a professional perspective, what is your comment on this unexpected victory?"

"This may not be an unexpected victory." Edwina said: "I think when Antigonus made a wish, he was probably trying to make himself luckier.

"As you just said, Antigonus's ability does not allow him to fight other contestants head-on. When we saw him make his first move, he took advantage of the chaos ahead when other contestants were fighting and appeared next to the bronze bell.

“This requires a lot of luck, because if you arrive too early or too late, you will be easily affected by the attacks of other players.

"And the moment he grabbed the rope, he needed even more luck. At that time, the other six contestants were attacking each other. They all thought that Antigonus, who was crawling forward with his legs intact, would need another one or two seconds to get close to the bronze bell.

"But Antigonus suddenly got under the bell and grabbed the rope.

"I think his previous crawling was just paralyzing his opponent."

The narrator exclaimed: "So He used wisdom to get the first place?"

"You can say that." Edwina said, "Of course, His tactic also has a fatal flaw. If it is seen through, then He will not be able to get the first place.

"Amon, who possessed the corresponding power of destiny, was most likely to detect Antigonus's tactics. However, at the beginning, Amon rushed too aggressively and because he did not handle his interpersonal relationships well, he was targeted by several other contestants.

"So Amon was so busy dealing with it that he didn't even notice it."

Brooke added, "I have one last question. How did Antigonus appear next to the bronze bell? I think many people think that his wish was to appear next to the bronze bell."

Edwina smiled and said, “We can watch the replay for this. Please replay the part where He made a wish.

"Please look carefully. While He was making a wish, He also turned part of the ground He ran onto into His own secret doll. So He reached the bronze bell by exchanging positions with non-living secret dolls many times."

Brooke exclaimed: "I heard the applause and cheers from the audience! This wonderful game touched every audience member!
"The Extraordinary Games are still going on. Let's take a look at the situation in other venues..."
