The corpse of the invincible hero

.Chapter 320: The Ring Begins

Now in the world of Heroes of Might and Magic OL, there are eleven countries in the Human Race camp, four countries in the Elf Race camp, three countries in the Tower Race camp, one country in the Swamp Race camp, and two additional national-level Freedom Alliances , so the Light Alliance has a total of 21 national-level power groups.

In terms of the Dark Alliance, there are nine countries in the hell camp, five countries in the ghost camp, seven countries in the dungeon camp, one country in the barbarian camp, and three additional national-level tribes, so the Dark Alliance has a total of There are 25 national-level power groups.

And this time, the first full-server grand arena, although hosted by the game company and assisted by the game mastermind, is also closely related to the composition of npc forces.

The reason is still closely related to the registration method and promotion method of this competition.

Within three days after the start of the registration date, in any city recognized by the system, an NPC named "Registration Officer for the Ring Competition" will be refreshed next to the city's council hall. Any player can qualify for the competition after signing up with the registration officer and paying a registration fee of one gold coin at the same time.

Although the form of the competition is varied, the final promotion method is exactly the same.

After all players sign up, on the night of the third day, the system will send an email to inform them of the match location. Generally speaking, those who sign up wherever they are will compete there.

However, the competitions in all regions do not start at the same time. The system stipulates that the "single-player professional arena competition" of various races and countries will be held first.

The initial game level is "small town", which means that all players who sign up in small cities will have a game the day after the registration ends.

The format of the competition is a knockout match. The winner will advance directly, and the loser will be eliminated directly. There is no resurrection group.

In the end, a maximum of [-] "promoters" will be selected from all small towns with competitions to enter the next round of the "Midtown" competition.

In the "Midtown" level competition, the competition venue has been upgraded to a medium-sized city. All "small-town players" who have successfully advanced and locally registered players will have a single-round knockout match again. There is still no resurrection group. In the end, each medium-sized city will allow advanced winners The maximum number is fifty.

After the "Midtown" competition is over, the next day is the "Big City" competition. The format is the same as the previous two rounds. There is still no resurrection group, and if you fail, you will be eliminated directly. Each large city is allowed to advance to the winner The maximum number of players is twenty.

After the "Big City" game is the "National" game, which is the main event, and this is probably the craziest time for players

After three consecutive days of competition, players from all races, countries, and professions have initially emerged as outstanding players. None of the players who can win the "Big City" competition is mediocre.

After bringing together powerful players selected from various large cities, the "National" competition will be divided into two days. A resurrection match will also be set up. Players who are eliminated in the competition of each profession on the day can enter the resurrection group after paying a large amount of "resurrection gold" to determine the top three in the resurrection group, and then merge into the previous thirteen teams. Strong, becoming the top sixteen players in this profession in the country.

On the fifth day, the semi-finals and finals of the single-player competitions of various professions officially kicked off

The system will determine the top four of each profession in each country at one go on the same day, including the national champion, runner-up, third runner-up and No.4 of this profession.

The official competition has come to an end here, but on the sixth day, there will be a "race" competition beyond the limit

The super players who have won the top four in each country will have to accept the challenge of the fifth to No.8 players, that is, the players who were helpless in the previous eight-strong competition. After the desperate confrontation with these people, the winners will continue , in order to participate in the highlight of the sixth day - "race" competition.

Being able to enter the top competitions of all races and professions, these people are undoubtedly the super-class players of their profession. After gathering together, they will have a final competition to decide who is the real "No. [-] in their clan"

Judging from the announced competition format, it seems that it is most beneficial to go directly to the large cities in various regions to sign up for the competition, because in this way, you can directly avoid the fierce fighting in the first two rounds, and at least you can get mixed up to the level of the "big city" competition.

In fact, things are far from that simple.

Although throughout the entire process, the system continues to use a single round of elimination, but during the competition, there is also the participation and consideration of the points system~

Every time a player participates in a game, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will first add [-] game points, and then the winner will continue to add [-] game points. Points are accumulated to the player's total points.

But don't underestimate these points

For example, in the previous "Small City", "Mid City" and "Big City" level competitions, the number of players who can successfully advance in each city was also strictly limited, but the number of players participating in each location was different.

In the final phase of elimination and promotion, it is the turn of the "point system" to show results.

When a whole round of competition is over and the number of remaining players is more than 50 but less than 100, which is not enough to continue to the next round of elimination, the system will give priority to the 50 players with the highest points to advance.

Of course, losing qualifications does not mean that they are definitely out. Those who are confident in their own strength can use all their "points" as bets to name and challenge any qualified player.

Once the game is won, the challenger advances, and the loser is eliminated directly. Any player has only one chance to challenge and be challenged. If the challenged party succeeds in defending the title, they can eat half of the opponent's bet in one go and include it in their total points. .

This format is used even in the course of the "national" competition.

The reason why "points" have been emphasized is because this value also reflects the player's combat exploits and strength from the side.In addition to the system-designated reward items in all levels of competition and rankings, these "points" can eventually win rewards for players

The designated rewards issued by the system are mainly various weapons and equipment, but the rewards that can be exchanged for these points are more varied, including high-quality strategic materials (such as throwing knives, arrows, magic scrolls), high-end supplies Items (such as healing potions, life potions, full recovery potions), various mounts, and even pet eggs released by the system in advance (does not overlap with the battle pets of the hunter profession, and the recipients can get pets regardless of profession)

It can be seen that, to a certain extent, accumulating more points in lower-level competitions will also be of great benefit to one's subsequent promotion path. After all, the opponents who are further behind must be stronger. If you squeeze out an opponent with higher points, it will undoubtedly be a very refreshing thing~

At the same time, those who have full confidence in their own strength can also accumulate more points, so that they can get better item rewards when the final results are settled.

After the sixth day of the "race" competition, all players will have a day off, and the team competition will officially start on Monday of the next week.

The team competition is divided into two parts: mercenary team battle and player guild battle.

And the two parts set up a restricted competition and an unrestricted competition respectively.

As the name suggests, "Limited Level Competition" is a safety match for teams of the same level to compete in consideration of the differences in the number and strength of each power level. There are four parts: level competition (standard 50 people), e-level competition (standard 100 people) and d-level competition (standard 300 people).

The "Limited Match" of the player's guild battle is divided into two parts: the first-level match (standard 500 players) and the second-level match (standard 1000 players).

In contrast, the no-limit match is much more cruel and terrifying, because the groups gathered here are of all levels, and there may even be extreme extremes where the newly established G-level mercenary group faces the old powerful D-level mercenary group And at the end of the unlimited match, the top four in the mercenary group will also have a final with the top four in the player guild to decide who is the real number one force in the current Heroes of Might and Magic OL world

For a long time, the debate over whether the form of the mercenary group or the player guild is stronger has never stopped. In the constant conflicts of forces, the side of the mercenary group and the player guild occasionally win or lose, but the mercenary group The development and upgrade of the Corps to e-level and d-level has basically reached an extreme. If you want to further upgrade to c-level or even b-level, it will take an unimaginable amount of time~

In contrast, the player guild is still a new organizational form. The basic level can have a scale of 500 people, and the scale of the second level can reach 1000 people. From this point of view, it is afraid that it will surpass the mercenary There is more than one group.

Of course, in order to enhance the competitiveness of the competition and attract more groups to enter the no-limit competition, in the no-limit competition, each participating player's point collection speed will be five times that of the limited-level competition

That is to say, basically everyone participating in a team can get [-] competitive points. Once the team wins, even if only one person is not killed, each team member can gain [-] competitive points.

Compared with the single professional group arena, although the scale of the team competition is much larger, the number of matches is much, much smaller, but this does not mean that the competition period of the team competition is shorter.

In fact, in order to increase the enjoyment of the game, just like the original "Eight Races Mercenary Battle", at the end of the team competition, the powerful groups of each race will gather together for the real "No. [-] Gang in the World" competition. For this reason, the competition cycle of the entire team competition is also one week.

In the third week after the official start of the competition, the last part of this full-server big arena competition kicked off, and it was also the most eye-catching part.

In this part of the competition, the accumulative speed of points is twice that of the previous "professional individual arena". In each game, the winner will have at least [-] points in the account, and even the loser will have at least [-] points. Points earned.

In this part of the competition, there are no occupations or levels, and the format of the competition is the same as the original "Professional Individual Challenge Competition". ring match

After learning the details of the entire game process, countless players were excited and crazy overnight, and everyone entered a state of excitement. By the second day of the registration time, many city prisons of the Light Alliance were full of squats due to excessive Players who are excited and "picking quarrels and provoking trouble" in the city.

But even though they were imprisoned, these players were still very excited. Even though their weapons were confiscated, some of them fought hand-to-hand with others in the prison with bare hands

Because there are no restrictions on the group arena this time, even criminals who are "serving a sentence" also have the right to participate in the competition

The chaos once spread to the point where all the NPC lords had a headache

Of course, even though they are extremely excited, the players will not lose their minds~ The competition is coming soon, every point of strength means that you can go further in the competition and earn more

Just use the game company's promotional slogan: This is a broadcast conference of high-quality equipment and items. We strive to make every player get something and get a satisfactory return for their efforts.

Therefore, at such a critical moment, no matter how hot everyone's heads are, they will not be crazy enough to do some murderous things. After all, once these things are committed, they may be directly executed if they are caught by the city guards. Not to mention the relegation, maybe even the important equipment on the body will explode together, that would be too tragic.

Therefore, although there are countless prisoners and players in the prison, in fact, they are all small things such as sneaking around and disrupting the law and order. The real murderers and the like have actually subsided a lot, and they are also working hard to reduce the number of monsters. With my sinful value, I hope that I can get the chance to enter the city to sign up at the last moment, and participate in this super feast that is rarely seen in the history of the game.

The propaganda is still going on, the madness is still spreading~

However, the clock did not stop for a minute or a second. As the sun in reality set and rose again, the game date in the game world finally arrived.

On this day, countless registered players gathered in the small cities where they signed up for the competition, eagerly waiting for the moment when they would compete on the field, but what they could not have expected was that, perhaps in the next second, a future world-class strong Those who are in the middle of the game may pass by them, or even compete with them on the same stage...

"Hey~ time time time... time is still not enough, I can't go back to the level, I hope there will be no big problems, but I finally put back all the important equipment." A person quietly The figure standing in the corner, wearing a robe with a large hood, looked like a man dressed as a spellcaster muttered.

"I don't know what's going on with Xue Lan. It's been more than a month since I left. I hope she doesn't have too many problems. I don't know if she has a match today..." The figure continued to mutter .

"The third match has been confirmed, please go to the No. [-] arena immediately, please go to the No. [-] arena immediately. If you are not familiar with the venue, please turn on the venue guidance function immediately..."

Guided by the phantom road signs transformed by the system, this figure slowly walked forward in the crowd. Although the road was a bit crowded, he still arrived at the destination smoothly, and he also saw the result of the previous fight along the way.

"Well... Didn't you learn Combat Casting? Is this guy sure he's a Tier [-] player? No matter how much he lacks, he won't be short of so many skill points, right~

Although wizard-type professions don't cast spells as frequently as mage-type professions, if you don't learn any combat spellcasting in a duel, isn't it like a target?It's too much of a joke..."

Seeing that the remaining victor wizard on the ring was still waving his hands arrogantly to the "audience" under the ring, the figure sighed for the man who finally disappeared and left the stage.

"Next, please invite contestant No. 117 and No. 321 to the stage... Please invite contestant No. 117 and No. 321 to the stage..." After the winner was also teleported away, the empty arena Suddenly a mechanical electronic synthesis sounded.

It's just that as soon as the voice came out, no one below stood up, but the surrounding "audience" couldn't help but scream

"No. 321? Is that the person?"

"I heard that yes, someone saw his game before. When the system confirmed his identity after he took the stage, it was indeed the name that was reported."

"Is it really that person? Could it be a mistake? How did he come here?"

"Who knows~ Maybe they want to earn more competition points. Playing one more round of competition will add up to hundreds of points. Don't waste it."

"Tch~ Is he so courageous? Aren't you afraid of being overconfident and capsized in the gutter."

"Hehe~ Interesting, once you say this, I really can't tell who is the most courageous~ If you have the ability, you should go up and see if he will capsize in your gutter."

"**he** ate shit, his mouth is so stinky? Believe it or not, I cut you off"

"It stinks, but if you have the ability, see you in the arena, and see who will do it and who will get down when the time comes"

"Okay, okay, are you two annoying? It's not your turn to take the stage now. Besides, it's still a question of whether the two of you can fight. Why are you so excited? Shut up and watch someone come on stage."

For a moment, the audience couldn't help but fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to the only standing figure on the ring...
