Star Wars Civilization
Chapter 835: Holy Demon Imperial Court
The competition continued, and the twenty winners of the first round regrouped to fight against each other.
Shen Zheng was not showy. When he met his opponent, he just pretended to cope with it and pretended to win with a little luck. In this way, we survived the second round of the top ten competition and entered the top ten.
The battle that followed was no longer a life-and-death fight. Mo Yun Zhanjun issued a death order, and anyone who killed the other party would be immediately declared a loser. Therefore, the work of referees has become more difficult, and the original referees have also been removed and replaced by a referee team composed of the Empire's elders, monitoring the competition between each pair of players, and taking timely action when necessary to prevent deaths from occurring. .
From this, Shen Zheng was even more certain that this was selecting a killer. When the killers have been selected, the holy demons are no longer willing to let these talents go to waste, so they have put in place such strict protection measures.
The competition at this time still adopts the rules of the knockout round. The winner directly enters the top five, and then starts the round robin to determine the ranking. The loser did not leave the field, but continued with the bottom five qualifying rounds. [
Now that he has entered the top ten and can participate in the finals with the team, Shen Zheng no longer has to work hard at acting. But in order to ensure that he failed, he "worked hard" to get an eighth place result, which was neither better nor lower than the bottom five, and was not eye-catching at all.
The battle for the top five is very fierce, because without the threat of death, the players are no longer afraid of opponents who are stronger than themselves. Even if they know they are not their opponents, they still have to fight to at least understand the style of the strong ones.
After a battle, there were frequent exciting scenes and constant cheers, but it finally came to an end. As expected, Mo Guang Cuo won the championship. Amid countless cheers, Mo Yun Zhanjun flew down from a high place. On the award-winning platform, he held Mo Guang Cuo's hand and raised it.
"The champion has been born. He is the son of the Demon Family of the Imperial City and the great emperor's nephew, Mo Guangcuo!"
A ceremonial officer shouted out the results, followed by cheers from the crowd. Amidst the cheers, Demon Cloud War Lord took an insect core from the etiquette officer and took out a strange item.
Shen Zheng's eyes were immediately attracted to that thing because he sensed the powerful power of an artifact from it.
"Little mistake." Moyun Zhanjun's eyes showed a kind light, and he handed the thing into Mo Guangcuo's hands. "This is the champion's prize, the artifact 'Heaven Demon Control'. By using it together with your insect spirit weapon, you can immediately increase the power of the weapon and gain the power of the demon, and you can switch between long-range and close combat at any time."
"Thank you, Emperor!" Mo Guangcuo saluted respectfully and took the artifact.
The artifact was one meter long and looked like an overly long handle. There was a circular hole at the front end, like a gun muzzle. Mo Guangcuo took it in his hand and suddenly used his strength. Immediately, the light in his body was transmitted to the artifact, sprayed out from the hole, and turned into the blade of his curved knife.
He held the handle of the artifact and swung it violently in the air a few times. Cracks in the space immediately appeared in the air, as if if he exerted more force, the space would be cut open.
"What a baby!" He couldn't help but his eyes flashed with excitement.
"Work hard, my child." Mo Yun Zhanjun patted Mo Guangcuo on the shoulder. "After you win the position of commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, there will be greater benefits waiting for you!"
"Yes!" Mo Guangcuo put away the artifact and bowed respectfully to Mo Yun Zhanjun. "My nephew will definitely live up to his uncle's expectations!"
However, Shen Zheng kept a close eye on the artifact, thinking about who he could give it to to increase its power when he got it.
Looking at this group of people, Shen Zheng somewhat felt pity for them. He already knows that the life span of these holy demons is only about tens of millions of years. Compared with the normal life span of the King of Star Sea, which is hundreds of millions of years, it is pitifully short. That is why they are desperate to enter the source world and seize the source world. The power of the world.
Because it is directly related to the length of their lives.
But this can never be the reason for them to kill people from the source world. No matter what, as long as they invade the Source Realm, Shen Zheng will never tolerate them.
After the championship award ceremony, the top ten contestants were invited to the high platform to accept the awards in person from Lord Moyun. The reward was quite generous, and it turned out to be a space insect core, which contained a large number of treasures from the holy and demonic world - the King of Star Sea. The dark jade stone used to replenish strength is called the Holy Spirit Stone; the golden crystal used to enhance strength is called the Holy Demon Crystal. For these two things, the number of rewards is also different depending on the ranking. Shen Zheng, the eighth place, received a thousand Holy Spirit Stones and five Holy Demon Crystals.
For ordinary people, this is already a huge fortune, but for Shen Zheng, it is not interesting at all. But he still pretended to be excited and accepted it. [
"I heard that you are a blind man?" Demon Cloud War Lord stood in front of Shen Zheng and said while looking at the mask on his helmet.
"Your Majesty actually knows about me?" Shen Zheng pretended to be excited, his body trembling slightly.
"Take off your helmet and let me remember your heroic appearance." Demon Cloud Warlord said with a smile.
"I... I'm afraid I've scared His Majesty..." Shen Zheng still pretended to be excited, with his hand half raised, as if hesitating whether to pick it or not.
"Your Majesty, don't you need it? I heard it's really difficult." The etiquette officer on the side reminded in a low voice.
"Why not!" Moyun Zhanjun said with a smile, "Such a powerful warrior appears in a small family. I must remember him. Come on, my child."
"Yes!" Shen Zheng took off his helmet, revealing a face that had been transformed by the power of the demon armor into as ferocious as a ghost, and eyes that were blank and unable to see. He was confident and well disguised, but he still felt nervous, because Demon Cloud Warlord was indeed a master among masters, and he was afraid that his hidden ability would not be able to hide from the opponent.
No matter who they are, they all love beauty and don’t want to face ugliness too much. Even Moyun Zhanjun was like this. After admiring this ugly face, although he appeared calm and calm on the outside, he was extremely disgusted in his heart. He nodded and motioned for Shen Zheng to put on his helmet.
"Don't mind appearance, the most important thing for a man is strength and power!" He patted Shen Zheng on the shoulder to show encouragement. "Go to the Source Realm and make meritorious deeds! That way, you will be admired by many people and become a hero who can go down in history!"
"Yes!" Shen Zheng pretended to be excited.
Mo Yun Zhanjun continued to walk back, handing out prizes to the ninth and tenth place, and saying words of encouragement, but Shen Zheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
We finally managed to get through it. Since the emperor of this country couldn't detect any abnormalities, there is basically nothing to fear in the future.
After the grand award ceremony, the top ten were invited to a special hotel and enjoyed the most luxurious hospitality. Two days later, this participating team, protected by the royal guards, set off from the Demon Empire, and after a long hyperspace flight, they arrived at a more magnificent secret realm.
The secret realm is full of grandeur. Although it is full of high-rise buildings, the architectural style is completely different from the imperial capital of the Demon Empire. It is full of classical atmosphere, like ancient castles. Moreover, there were no billboards or hotels here. At first glance, Shen Zheng felt that this was a simple imperial city.
This secret realm is the supreme master of the Holy Demon Realm. The Royal Secret Realm of the Holy Demon Clan is the highest authority in the entire Holy Demon Realm. Here, any guard is a very strong expert. Even when they see the senior officials leading the team from the Demon Empire, they just give a slight nod. As for the officials among them, they all put on prim faces. When the officials led by the Demon Empire met them, they would also take the initiative to talk to them and say hello.
And although they called the demon leader "sir", the light in their eyes did not show much awe.
The leader of the demon empire has a high status. He is a member of the empire's elders and a member of the royal demon family. His name is Mo Lun. He is not a person who behaves in a pleasant manner, but in these royal courts In front of officials, he had to smile. It can be seen that things in the officialdom are common among mortals and in all major planes.
The group was taken to an ancient castle by the reception official and arranged to stay in one of the castles. In front of the castle, there is a huge garden square with fountains, flowers, beautiful birds and docile animals. There is also a band playing music from time to time, and beautiful singers singing. On the other side of the square is another small castle. I don't know who lives in it.
Benefits were arranged for everyone, and many people had enough time to chat and went to the square to relax. There were also respectful waiters there, ready to serve up fine wine and delicious food. A few of the contestants who liked this went to drink and chat.
Shen Zheng also followed, not to relax, but to get to know these people better, and at the same time began to think about how to unfold his plan.
He quickly blended into this group of people with a humble attitude.
Except for the first place Mo Guang Cuo, the nine contestants from the Demon Empire came to the square outside, sat around a round table, ordered the waiters to serve wine and delicacies, and started eating, drinking and chatting. Shen Zheng pretended to be respectful and kept helping everyone add wine and food, gradually making everyone accept this strong man from a small family in a remote place in the countryside. [
"I'm talking about Brother Tianfeng." The ninth player who lost to him in the competition taught him earnestly, "You are right to do this. Although your ability is not low, you must know that your family has no power at all. But we are different. Our families are all well-known in the empire. You have to know that individual strength is not strong, but the strength of a group of people is really strong. This attitude is right, just like Mo Guangcuo. , unless there is a stronger force behind you.”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Zheng nodded hurriedly, then looked sad and angry. "It's a pity that my family was destroyed by the Yi Lian family. I will avenge this sooner or later."
"I heard about you." The second-ranked player pretended to be calm and nodded. "Don't worry, as long as you help me properly in the army from now on, I can help you settle this matter."
"Thank you very much!" Shen Zheng hurriedly poured him wine and tried to please him.
In the dark, he couldn't help but look at the castle opposite.
He had already asked the waiter here and found out that it was a residence prepared for the Saint players. These proud saints have not come yet.
The first step is to get closer to these idiots, and the second step...
Shen Zheng smiled secretly.
