Abyss Express

After the first duel of the preliminaries is over, the partners need to rest and prepare for the second rematch the next day.

Yes, you heard it right, there is no generous rest time during the audition stage.

The team members may suffer serious bullet injuries during the primaries, such as damage to the cardiopulmonary system and brain nerves. These injuries can be filled with White Lady's products, but to fully heal, they must be combined with panacea and sufficient Sleep to heal.

In the audition stage, the number of teams participating in the competition from each region has increased over the years following the decline of the Mad Butterfly Sect.

In the fiery midsummer of 2032, more than 10,000 people participated in the popular tourist destination of Daji Township alone, with a total of more than 1,700 teams. The game still uses the double elimination system, which also caused the Luna Cup to last for a hundred days.

Almost one-fifth of the passionate young people in the 108 townships of the 41 districts, 8 cities and 32 counties participated in this competition.

The primary election will take four days, and the re-election will start at the same time, and then the double-elimination stage will be a 12-day schedule. Two-thirds of the more than 1,000 teams will be screened out, leaving the top 300.

From the remaining 300 top teams, a three-game two-win competition system was used to determine the final township top 16, and it took less than a month.

One and a half months later, the county-level representative team was finally born, and by this time, the audition had just ended.

Our players have to rush to the regional capital non-stop to fight against powerful enemies in various townships and counties. At least 32 teams and at most 40 teams will participate in the competition of regional representatives, plus substitutes, a total of more than 200 teams The winners will taste the sweetness of victory and the bitterness of defeat in the Metropolis.

The lucky one left in the end will walk to Adulis with the hope of the whole region, and wrestle with the elite heroes of the entire underground world.

If a team can start from the training match before the audition, go all the way to the podium of Adullis, and finally hold the Luna Cup, it also means that these fighters spent nearly one-third of the time in this whole year. Maintaining a battle state.

In this brutal marathon, they did not slacken any slack. Lady luck may occasionally help the brave, but luck will never survive this hell.

No matter what the process is, the regional teams that can go to the final day are all athletes with tenacity, courage and strength, and they are very remarkable young talents.

The darling of these times is the real No. 1 in the world, which also shows that the railway world of Aoru Mingde is a dangerous area rich in martial arts-this place spends one third of the year training soldiers.

For Fiego Sebasti, the Luna Cup is his ideal.

Seven years ago, a terrorist attack occurred in a hotel in the Somali capital Mogadishu.

Fiego Sebasti's father died in the security guard box. The little boy didn't know what happened at that time. Life and death are far away for a thirteen-year-old child.

On the special day of June 14th, bad luck seems to particularly like to torture the poor. Little Fiego received two documents from the local police station in Mogadishu, which were the official death certificate and a family notification letter.

My mother has leukemia and cannot travel far, and lives with my grandmother who suffers from diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. The family of four all rely on their father's work to survive, so we can't talk about [life], because the word life itself is too extravagant and too expensive.

On the afternoon of the 14th, due to grandma's bad memory, without the help of her father, she took out the expired bacon in the freezer and made a meal that would be fatal to the elderly. At one o'clock, Fiego heard only a few feeble wailings, and another family member passed away.

Witnessing death can leave a very painful psychological shadow on a child.

He remembered that his father used to patrol the hotel's Lido Beach, with his hands behind his back and neat and clean clothes. As long as there is a father, it seems that this family is always full of laughter.

Another flimsy forensic autopsy was sent back, and together with the death certificate, it became a burden on the child's heart.

Only a week later, Fiego's mother also passed away——

——He squatted beside the bed, this time watching his mother slowly close her eyes.

He kissed the back of his mother's fingers, thinking about her good and bad.

She is not a competent mother, because of the negative emotions brought about by the illness, she always acts recklessly at home and vents her anger on the dearest and most loved ones. It was not until after her father passed away that she finally became quiet and hugged her little one every day. Sebastian put his arms around his son and kissed his forehead.

Every day, this mother would look at the little baby in horror, and would always ask some nonsense, such as how are you, are you hungry, are you afraid of the cold, will you be like me, infected with this disease? incurable disease.

Fiego Jr. wrote a diary entry.

In the hot June, the whole world seems to have turned gray.

"Dad went to work and didn't come back in the afternoon. Mom answered the phone, and then Dad died."

"In the evening, after grandma finished cooking, everyone ate together. No one spoke. Grandma started crying, and my mother also started crying. Grandma died the next morning."

"Mom was very sad and asked me to go to Aunt Keli to borrow money and pay the priest."

"At the end of the month, one morning I went out to buy meat and bone sticks. Aunt Keli made sweet pancakes and diced beef. We don't want to pay back the money."

"By the time I got home, my mother was dead."

At the end of the diary, little Viego finally understood that he was the only one left in this world.

He bid farewell to Aunt Keli, finished the family affairs, and looked at himself in the mirror——

—he felt sick, and seemed unable to be happy any more.

So he wanted to find a medicine, a medicine that could cure himself, a panacea that could make the mind light again, and relieve the mind from the torment of heavy pressure.

This little guy secretly hid in a banana food container, followed a large truck across Somalia to Ethiopia, sneaked into Saudi Arabia as a small laborer on an oil tanker, and went all the way north. Six months later, he was in Reykjavik, Iceland. In the restaurant, he found two tickets, and like every psychic in the underground world, he embarked on the only way.

At the beginning of the journey, Viego couldn't afford Galahad's school fees. Unlike Brother Hao, he had a waiter who was willing to lend him money. Mr. Toussaint, who happened to be recruiting for the business school, immediately fell in love with the essence of little Foyego.

At that time, Toussaint was not a coach, but a player in the Luna Cup. He served in Amethyst and was the absolute core of Amethyst, serving as an attacker and captain.

Toussaint took Fyego Jr., brought him to Area 41, sent him to school, and was almost Fyego Jr.'s second father.

Little Foyego lives in the Daji Township Welfare Nursing Home. Mr. Toussaint told him that these houses can be repaired thanks to Anonymous—at that time, our Mr. Jiang Xueming was beating Conquer Johnny violently.

The welfare project in Daji Township was gradually expanded to the surrounding area after the 48th district extermination campaign, starting from the Eurasian railway network from the Qingshuiwan area to the Golden Township.

As the starting point, District 41 was naturally the first place to receive policy benefits.

Fiego has since had a new home—

——Toussaint took in a lot of children, like Foyego, who is under the age of 18 and has no waiters to take care of him. Most of the bonuses he earned from playing games and the salary from the club are spent on the children .

When he was thirty-six years old, he suffered a serious injury. During a training match, a bullet pierced through the speech area of ​​his right skull. As a result, the captain had to retreat behind the scenes and spent seven days in training. It takes twelve days to speak normally.

The captain lost his ability to speak, which was a fatal blow to Amethyst's warriors. Toussaint was criticized by Amethyst's supporters that year, because he was the soul of the team. Without him, Amethyst was almost unable to recover, and finally stopped the schedule of the Buxiang county representative.

Fiego Sebasti still remembers that time——

——It was also a hot summer, and the Luna Cup had just started less than sixteen days ago. In front of the window sill of the nursing home, Mr. Toussaint was listening to the radio, and suddenly the news of Amethyst's defeat came, and Mrs. Toussaint began to cry, his face full of reconciliation.

He didn't understand why Teacher Toussant was crying at that time, the crying was so ugly, other children would also be infected by this emotion, the older friend led the younger ones to cry together.

It wasn't until many years later that when Fiego came to the game for the first time and missed the victory, he finally understood the thoughts of Toussaint who was sitting on the bed and couldn't speak. It seemed that bad things would always happen in the summer.

"What are you thinking?"

A call interrupted Viego's thoughts. He was lying in the dining hall of the Blue Eagle Stadium, and everyone was preparing for dinner.

The organizer will provide each player with at least two meals to reward these sweaty warriors on the field.

Coach Toussaint tapped on the table and pointed to Fiego's injured hand.

"Can't hold the tableware anymore? How about changing your chopsticks? Try Chinese food? I heard that these mysterious people from the East practiced martial arts since they were young, and holding chopsticks is also practicing martial arts."

"That's a rumor, teacher, don't talk nonsense." Fiego stretched out his hand to pinch the tableware, but felt that his right arm was stiff and weak. After the operation, it would take some time to recover.

Toussaint: "Can't you pick it up?"

Fyego insisted: "I can"

Toussaint: "If you can't pick it up, you can't pick it up. Don't lie, if you get hurt, you get hurt."

Fiego finally put down the iron spoon and changed to holding the cutlery with his left hand.

"Boy, look over there." Toussaint had already finished his meal, with one arm around Fiego and the other around Tamiya Eita, and he was very close to the breaker and attacker.

The head coach glanced at the White Clothes Gang team not far away, leaned forward and nodded his eyes, asking the two little brothers to see clearly.

"They are also in the cafeteria, do you want to go up and say hello?"

Eita Tamiya: "It's impolite to interrupt others while they're eating, coach."

"Teacher, I don't want to go. Can I not go?" Foyego felt an inexplicable resistance when he saw Brother Hao.

That was someone he couldn't envy——

——He is the proud son of heaven who came out of Galahad, and he is a student of the gunsmith.

In Fyego's growth experience, the gunsmith was an idol full of fantasy.

Every time when he is passionate and wants to go to other areas, to the hot war zone where the crazy butterflies are active, and when he is just an adult, he will report to various militia organizations with his ID card, people will always talk to Viego ——It's over!

The Anonymous, led by the gunsmith, fought countless victories during Verego's adolescence. This little brother who chased stars at his own expense, traveled long distances and followed the Anonymous's team through four major war zones, until the mad butterfly became a protected animal. Warriors who can catch up with these dragons.

After returning to Area 41, Fiego took over Mr. Toussaint's mantle and wanted to meet the gunsmith in another way.

To be a player of the Luna Cup, hold the twelve-jewel gold cup, and become a remarkable person under the watchful eyes of the gunsmith referee.

This is almost the most important ideal in Fiego's life, so this time he represented Amethyst, he was so persistent, and his desire to win almost overwhelmed everything, making him narrow and mean, making him full of aggression .

Maybe as long as he wins two rounds, the club will recognize him and give him a bonus, then he can go to Galahad to study and become a gunsmith's student.

But when Ahao appeared in front of Foyego, he felt a deep sense of frustration in his heart, so that he was ashamed, as if he had worked hard for so long, but the end of his pursuit was the starting point of others.

Toussaint: "What are you thinking?"

Fiego: "I don't want to talk"

"That's not okay." Coach Toussaint said with a smile: "If you become dumb, don't think about the game, dumb people don't have the qualifications."

Fiego's eyelids twitched: "I'm very unconvinced"

Toussaint: "Is it because of Howe?"

Fiego: "He seems to be stronger than me. Even if my hand is not injured, I may not be able to beat him."

"Don't worry." Taussaint patted the young man's vest: "He is not your opponent—boy, he is definitely not your opponent."

Fiego: "Mr. Toussaint, where do you come from? Are you better than a gunsmith?"

"Of course I'm not as good as a gunsmith!" Toussaint was still smiling: "But I have a thick skin."

"Hahaha" Fiego smiled awkwardly, not taking the coach's words seriously.

"But I want to say that Fiego Sebastian is the most talented breakthrough player I have ever seen in my life. Howe is second. Do you believe it?" Toussaint deliberately slowed down his speech and explained : "If the Baiyi Gang can't find a substitute to rotate, their schedule will end at the capital at most. A complete team needs at least three substitutes. A fighter who can't learn to rest will not be able to pass the test of the Luna Cup .”

"This kid is indeed more ruthless than you, it looks like that."

"But he didn't know how to stop and rest, and he didn't have the opportunity to rest."

"Maybe half a month later, we have a chance to meet again, at that time [Voyego will beat Ahao hard] - you have to prepare the lines before the execution in advance."

"His sentence [Check mate·General] is quite emotional, and you can't lose in terms of fashion value."

Fiego was thoughtful, and secretly glanced at the location of the gunsmith. He was a little absent-minded while watching the idol, like an ignorant little fan.

On the other side, the head coach of Toussaint communicated privately with the No. 3 position in the team, talking about all kinds of information about the White Clothes Gang.

"Did you go to the girl in their team to ask for WeChat?"

"Um."

"Is it coming?"

"No."

"What did you see?"

"Just as the coach thought, the guy whose player ID is Miracle really doesn't have any traces of training. He can't run fast, his face is pale, and his body is weak. After strenuous exercise, his hands and feet began to swell in the waiting room."

Toussaint just found it incredible: "That is to say, Shark Pepper randomly found a passerby on the side of the main road to be their captain?"

Amethyst's number three nodded: "At least that's what I saw."

Now Mr. Toussaint can't fix it——

——This is something outside of his knowledge, and looking at Brother Miracle's face, it's hard not to doubt whether this guy can survive the next day's schedule.

Tamiya Eita leaned over to coach Toussaint and asked curiously.

"Is this miracle worthy of your attention?"

Toussaint replied casually——

"—During the competition, our coaching staff analyzed all the lip-syntax expressions of the players under the drone lens."

"Apart from Ah Hao's outrageous remarks, which even made people laugh, the most noteworthy thing is this miracle."

"All the behaviors of the Sentinel and Breakthrough are dominated by Miracle's orders—that is to say, without Miracle making decisions, there would be no Howe's Deadly Twelve Shots kill shot."

"This frail stranger is Shark Pepper's trump card and the brains of the entire team."

"Next time we meet, we're going to target him."

Tao Sen only knew that Ahao would never learn to rest. After winning the game, this kid was so excited that he screamed and yelled, and it lasted for more than two hours without stopping.

But what the experienced coach didn't expect was that Fiego Sebasti couldn't learn to rest.

After eating, the little brother sneaked back to the game site from the club at 8 o'clock in the evening. There were also some vacant sports rooms in the branch venue of the Blue Eagle Gymnasium, which were used to warm up the players.

Fiego looked at his right arm, not daring to put all his hopes on this right arm. He had to make up lessons temporarily to let his left hand have coordination and adapt to left-handed shooting.

Everyone knew in their hearts that if they were eliminated halfway, everything would be over and they would have plenty of time to rest.

Then a strange scene appeared in the lounge——

——Foyego disassembled the teaching aid box, and prepared to launch two hundred groups of guns for brisk positioning, and then two hundred groups of reloading and quick-firing.

I saw Brother Miracle in a corner, playing with the P99 plastic model in his hand in front of the floor-standing mirror, sweating all over his body, as if he had practiced for a long time.

Ah Hao just broke in through the gate, holding two bags of snacks in his hands, both of which are local specialties in Daji Township, beef jerky rich in protein, ready to replenish energy for his teammates. Eyes collided with Fiego, and they happened to meet each other.

"Are you coming to train too?"

Fyego was at a loss, and responded blankly.

"ah."

Ah Hao immediately grinned, and turned back immediately after putting down the snacks.

"Hey! Coincidentally, this isn't it! I'll get you another bag!"
