This is the first time Shao Ci has seen the appearance of these two people, and he has to admit that both of them have very good looks, and each has its own characteristics.
Although Edwin came from a prominent background, he was a person who didn't like others pestering him. He was also very low-key, and even concealed his own identity. Most people in the school didn't know about it.
At this time, Pei Shijian was just a talented freshman in the school with a good personality and a good relationship. No one knew that he was the master of time in the online mecha competition.
So the two of them walked around the school casually like ordinary students, and there were no fanatical fans around them.
So, the two of them bumped into Shao Ci so casually.
The next moment, the system sounded.
[Beep beep... A character with a higher force value was detected... According to the rules of the system, the attack target began to be replaced... After the replacement, the current attack target is Edwin.]
Shao Ci: "???" Hey wait, why is it Edwin? ! He thought it would be Mr. Pei's.
[Of course it is because Edwin, the target of the attack, has a higher force value at this time.]
Shao Ci: "..." That's right, Shijian Pei is still in its infancy, and it's normal for him not to be as powerful as Edwin.
Unlike Shao Ci, who was scared to death after seeing him, Pei Shijian greeted the two of them with a smile, just like acquaintances meeting each other. Nothing unusual.
Just looking at Master Pei's attitude, who would have thought that he wronged the original owner for being a peep in the men's bathroom!
The more Pei Shijian was like this, the colder Shao Ci's heart became. He would rather Pei Shijian come up and whip him a few times to solve the problem, and he didn't want him to plot against him secretly like this again, but the human design is just There is no way to do this.
Seeing the object of worship, Ji Zhaoyun's attitude was very excited. After opening his mouth, he was too nervous to speak, struggled for a long time, and finally just nodded casually, without saying a word, and his attitude seemed extremely cold ... If he hadn't been always bragging about Pei Shijian at home, Shao Ci would not have guessed that he was a fan of Pei Shijian.
No wonder in the original text, for a long period of time, Pei Shijian suspected that Ji Zhaoyun was someone who wanted to fight against him, and even wanted to kill Ji Zhaoyun several times.
Thinking of this, Shao Ci felt that Ji Zhaoyun was also quite miserable. It was really not easy to be such a fan of such a person.
Edwin was indifferent, and greeted Ji Zhaoyun casually, and then completely ignored Shao Ci.
In Edwin's view, taking one more look at such a person is an insult to his own eyes, and he was still thinking in his heart that yesterday he sent dozens of emails to the little prince in a fit of excitement, would the other party see it? It's too annoying to dislike him, and I can't help feeling a little regretful.
And Ji Zhaoyun looked at Edwin coldly. After all, it was this guy who lost to Little Prince Latiao, which made the matter develop to such a point. If he was more useful, it would not lead to the current situation.
Shao Ci was still very self-aware and didn't say anything, so he wouldn't humiliate himself.
Obviously it was just to say hello, but he actually made the situation so awkward.
After all, people from both sides had things to do, and they soon parted. When Pei Shijian passed by Shao Ci, he said softly: "I didn't expect you to have some tricks. But next time you won't be so lucky, just wait."
The voice of this sentence was very soft, and only Shao Ci heard it. His heart tightened, and he turned his head suddenly, and what he saw was a very kind smile on Pei Shijian's handsome and charming face.
Then Pei Shijian turned his head and left with Edwin.
To be honest, Shao Ci was so frightened that he almost knelt down when he saw Pei Shijian's smile.
It's okay to be targeted by the original male lead again! Relying on the other party's means can easily destroy yourself... Although it is enough to be ruined now, forget it, let him care so much, even if everyone in the empire treats him as a pervert who peeps at the men's bathroom! He is not alive yet.
Shao Ci was almost giving up on himself.
But Ji Zhaoyun, who had already walked a few steps, turned his head and glanced at Shao Ci, "What's there to see, don't look any more, come here quickly."
Shao Ci hurriedly followed.
Ji Zhaoyun directly chose a private room in the restaurant, and then ordered a bunch of expensive food. When the food came, he looked straight at Shao Ci, and said angrily, "What are you still doing sitting there, come over here to serve, Don't you have the self-awareness of being a servant?"
... Shao Ci was wondering if Ji Zhaoyun didn't eat when he was alone and had no one to serve him.
The target of the attack has changed, and Shao Ci has slacked off a lot, hesitantly said: "Hey, but I'm just a Beta, it's not good to get in touch with you."
Ji Zhaoyun said arrogantly: "Although you are only a Beta, you are doing pretty well, much better than other Betas. I reluctantly allow you to serve me for dinner at close range."
Shao Ci really wanted to say forget about starving to death, but he had to bow his head under the eaves, so he went to feed Ji Zhaoyun.
Shao Ci was very curious about how Ji Zhaoyun liked him now, so he asked the system. Although this salted fish system can only detect the favorability of the three states of negative, positive or zero.
[The favorability of the former Raiders is zero.]
Shao Ci: "..." Hey, why did you ask him to feed him
[That's because the former Raiders' favorability for most Betas is negative, so it's more pleasing to see the host as 0.]
Shao Ci: "..." Unable to refute.
Thinking about it now, Ji Zhaoyun usually felt very uncomfortable eating by himself, and then he was caught and pulled over to be a strong man...
The growing Alpha's appetite was particularly large, and Shao Ci's hands were sore that Ji Zhaoyun only finished eating, and then drank tea very gracefully. Shao Ci didn't even see how Ji Zhaoyun's thin body could eat so much food.
After the feeding, Shao Ci started to eat his own food, and was soon immersed in the delicious food, and he forgot all the unpleasant things before.
Is there anyone else in the world who is so easy to please
Ji Zhaoyun was in a much better mood after eating, looked at Shao Ci and said, "I will have armor combat class the day after tomorrow, you better practice it for me when you go back, I don't want to see you embarrassing me."
Shao Ci suddenly remembered how miserable the original owner's grades in the mecha combat class were, and his face turned pale. He can be so powerful on the virtual network mainly because of his mental power, but in the reality that his body will collapse if he uses his mental power, he can only operate manually.
As for his experience in manually operating the mech, he only had the warm-up before the battle with Edwin yesterday, and he fell down several times.
It was still on the virtual network, and there was almost no pain when he fell. If it was changed to reality, relying on Omega's weak body, he would probably break his bones and lie in bed for several months...
The parents of the original owner made an agreement with the teacher, and they would not be able to attend the actual mech combat class every time. But obviously Ji Zhaoyun is not such a reasonable person.
... It seems that after going back today, I have to practice manual operation on the virtual network.
Shao Ci's good mood suddenly disappeared, and he took a sip of the tea beside him.
"And that damn little spicy prince." Ji Zhaoyun snorted coldly, "I'm going to teach him a lesson today, and let him know that the sky is high and the earth is strong."
Shao Ci almost spit out the tea he just ate, "cough cough cough cough..."
"What's wrong?" Ji Zhaoyun frowned suddenly, "Don't you think I can win?"
"No, no..." Shao Ci said hastily: "How can the little prince Latiao win against you? I believe you will succeed!"
"That's about the same." Ji Zhaoyun said: "You performed well today, keep working hard in the future, and I will consider giving you a raise."
Shao Ci was shocked: "!" There is still salary! I thought it was a white job before.
In fact, Ji Zhaoyun is a good person, hey... But thinking of the scene of being beaten by him as soon as he wore it, Shao Ci thinks it's better to forget it.
The class in the afternoon was physical education, and Shao Ci worked hard, only to realize how unbearable Omega's physical strength was.
He was already out of breath after just running casually, but the Alphas beside him were all full of energy.
However, Shao Ci felt that it would be nice if he could dress up as an Omega pretending to be a Beta. Although he would envy Alpha occasionally, he would not scold fate for being unfair... You must know that most Omegas are still locked up at home, otherwise Just go to a school full of Omegas and wait to get married when you're an adult.
If he was dressed like that Omega, Shao Ci would simply choose to die.
After school, when he returned to his residence, Ji Zhaoyun went aggressively to his room.
Shao Ci also returned to the room, put on the virtual helmet and entered the virtual world, and was shocked by the number of emails as soon as he entered. Before that, there were only a dozen emails calling him perverted in the mailbox of the original owner...
These emails were sent to the competition by others, and then the system of the competition sent them over. There is no problem with confidentiality. No one can know Shao Ci's email address.
Yesterday, Shao Ci just played dozens of games casually and left without thinking about going to other places such as forums or something. He never expected that he would be considered a little famous person in the game.
Shao Ci opened these emails and saw that there were a lot of courtship letters, which also contained various selfies, even some male and female Omegas, which really scared Shao Ci.
Moreover, Edwin actually sent him dozens of emails. After clicking on them, he found that they were all written in the tone of a fan. Shao Ci really couldn't think that Edwin, who was so indifferent during the day, could write such an email. Sentence... If he knew that he was the little prince of spicy sticks, he didn't know how he would react.
And this Edwin is still so excited after being beaten by himself, in fact, he is shaking M! ... But in this case, there is no need to worry about the daily tasks. Shao Ci considers contacting Edwin to meet online after today's matter is resolved.
Before, he and César were able to complete daily tasks in their dreams, so it should be possible online.
There is also a part of the content of the letter about cooperation, and there are still many forces who want to win him over. Shao Ci was very moved when he saw such a large amount of imperial coins proposed by the other party. However, he is a salty fish in reality.
As for how much money is paid for advertising in the competition, Shao Ci is very interested, why not just advertise, so that it would be nice to have money at will.
So after Shao Ci asked the system to completely block his position, he went to ask the other party about the price. In the end, he negotiated a lot, got a lot of deposits, and instantly had tens of thousands of imperial coins on him.
Although the original owner's family is a nobleman, their life is similar to that of a commoner, and their annual expenses are only tens of thousands of imperial coins.
After Shao Ci finished all these, he came to the square with the most traffic, and saw a declaration of war written on the most conspicuous advertising space in the square.
It says, invite the little prince Latiao to go to a certain virtual mech training field to compete. If the little prince Latiao wins, he can get one million interstellar coins. Never participate again.
In the virtual world, I don't know how many people are competing every day, but there are only a few who are so arrogant, and they immediately attract the attention of countless people.
The advertising space that people in this area can see as soon as they come in like this needs hundreds of thousands of interstellar coins a day.
Shao Ci understood in an instant, no wonder so many advertisers came to him at once, it seemed that it was all because of this advertising space.
Shao Ci: "..." Ji Zhaoyun is definitely the one who released this declaration of war. Should he go or not... You must know that although Ji Zhaoyun did not participate in this competition, his strength is still very strong. He didn't die after being tricked by Pei Shijian. In the later stage of the plot in the original text, he became a general and became Pei Shijian's right-hand man... So he will go or not.
Isn’t this nonsense, of course, go, Shao Ci is very confident in his spiritual power, why doesn’t he accept Ji Zhaoyun’s money, it’s a million interstellar coins.
Shao Ci walked to the side without hesitation and swiped up at the entry point with his personal terminal. This kind of individual and individual battle also uses the system of the virtual mecha competition.
After entering, the same interface as yesterday appeared for him to choose a mecha.
Generally speaking, the mechas used by a contestant are the ones they are best at. Generally, they will not be replaced at will, and they are more individual. They will also put some special marks on the mechas, such as rankings. The masters in the top 50 can tell who they are just by looking at the mecha.
It's just that the appearance of the little prince made Pei Shijian's old-fashioned mecha look less unique than before, which is why Pei Shijian's fans are so upset.
However, Shao Ci chose it casually yesterday because he had no money. Today, he got so much deposit that he immediately became embarrassed. Why would he choose that old-fashioned mecha again? The mecha can be used with only a few hundred imperial coins.
You can't drive any powerful mechs in reality, of course you have to try them all online, he doesn't pretend to be like the hero in the original text.
And if you want to advertise, you have to choose a custom shape, and you need several thousand imperial coins, but these are nothing compared to the advertising fee.
Shao Ci directly turned on this function, and copied all the lines given by the advertisers to the mecha. The original white mecha suddenly became colorful and unremarkable, showing that its owner's aesthetics were also very pathetic.
But Shao Ci didn't care about these things. Compared with being scolded for being unaesthetic, the Imperial Coin was obviously more important.
Then Shao Ci turned on the screen, and sure enough, he saw the challenge issued by Ji Zhaoyun, and there was an agreement attached to it, which explained in detail what would happen if he lost, and what would happen if he won. These are all agreements approved by the competition. With legal force, as long as it is signed, it cannot be reversed.
There is also Ji Zhaoyun's signature below.
Ji Zhaoyun also hides his real identity in the virtual world. His name here is 'Stay away from me', which really matches his personality...
Shao Ci immediately signed the agreement, and then clicked to accept. There was a flower in front of him, which was directly teleported to the scene.
The scene was already full of spectators, who bought tickets immediately after seeing the news. This kind of unofficial competition room has to be paid for by oneself, and 1% of the money from ticket sales will be shared with the two participants.
So when Shao Ci saw these people, it was as if he had seen many imperial coins, and he was moved in his heart.
Most of the people came here for the little prince, and they also wanted to see who the challenger was, and they bought the advertising space in the plaza in such a wasteful manner. After seeing Shao Ci's mecha, everyone was stunned.
Didn’t you say that the little prince of Latiao used an old-fashioned mech? Why did he change it now? It's all advertising!
A good mech has been tossed into such a ghostly appearance, how many advertisements did the little prince take on? !
This completely ruined the hot little prince in their hearts! ! Although it was not a good idea to choose such a name, they really wanted to ask how short of money the little prince was...
And Edwin, who keeps his subordinates paying attention to the movement all the time, naturally bought the ticket immediately. He watched the scene nervously and excitedly. Since what happened yesterday, he couldn't calm down, and all he thought about was spicy sticks. little Prince.
With the addition of the filter, even looking at such an ugly mecha now, Edwin feels that it has a very individual character, and wonders whether to make his mecha look like this when he goes back.
"Hmph." Ji Zhaoyun sneered when he saw the mecha in front of him, "Sure enough, he's just a piece of trash. He did this kind of thing for a moment's benefit, and he still wants to be compared with Senior Pei. I'm going to let you lose directly today. From now on Don’t even think about taking part in the Mech Contest.”
And Shao Ci didn't care so much at all, just looked at the various buttons in the mech, recalled what he learned today, and was moved to find that he had memorized everything, and now he knew almost everything he didn't know yesterday.
Anyway, the warm-up time will be over for a while, so let's use this time to practice.
So Shao Ci tried to manually operate the mecha. With yesterday's experience, his operation is much better today. I can also walk normally instead of falling down directly.
The onlookers looked at the mech walking extremely stiffly, just a little better than the beginners, and they all looked a little surprised. They have only seen the videos of the little spicy prince showing his heroic appearance, and they have no idea how many people have ridiculed the little prince because of his poor operation before the first game.
"Is it because the new mecha is not suitable?" "Hey, to participate in such an important competition, you should use the accustomed mecha. Why do you have to think about changing the mecha?" "Is it really because of this?" Did you lose because of the reason? Then my ticket was bought for nothing.”
Only Edwin was excited, watching intently, remembering the first meeting between himself and the little prince yesterday. Under his filter, even if Shao Ci fell directly now, Edwin would think it was a very technical and aesthetic fall...
Soon the warm-up time will be over. Ji Zhaoyun also became serious, although he said before that he didn't take the other party seriously. But Ji Zhaoyun still watched all the videos of Little Prince Latiao, and even he had to admit that the other party is still a bit good, but if compared with Pei Shijian, it is still far behind.
Although he is very strong, Little Prince Latiao is not proficient in skills, and he doesn't understand tactics at all. He often behaves like a mecha beginner.
"According to yesterday's video, this little spicy prince will attack at the fastest speed from the very beginning, and many people will be pierced through the cockpit before they can react." Ji Zhaoyun thought: "As long as I guard against Take this first blow, and then use this opportunity to directly strike, you can easily defeat him."
After thinking about it, Ji Zhaoyun sat on the spot calmly, connected the mech with mental power, and waited for the opponent's attack.
People of their level basically use mental power to operate the mecha, otherwise the hand speed would not be able to keep up.
In this world, mental power is doomed by nature, but physical fitness can be improved. Many things are doomed from the very beginning. The plug-in is also his powerful mental power.
The moment the match started, Little Prince Latiao's original clumsy posture disappeared in an instant, and the speed of the entire mecha became extremely fast, and he attacked in an instant.
"Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought. If you're not prepared, you might really lose." Ji Zhaoyun caught the move as planned, thinking with ease in his heart, and then took advantage of the situation to attack the opponent.
It stands to reason that at such a fast speed, according to his calculations, it is impossible for the little prince to avoid it, but at that moment, the other party flashed away at a speed faster than in the video.
"How could it be?" Ji Zhaoyun opened his eyes wide, and then realized that the Little Latiao Prince used the most broken old-fashioned mecha yesterday, but today he has replaced it with a new mecha. It is normal for him to be faster .
But having missed this best opportunity, the little spicy prince has already flashed to a safe place.
"Damn it, I would make a mistake at such a time. Forget it, use the second plan." Ji Zhaoyun looked a little ugly, pulled out the laser knife and rushed towards the opponent.
After watching those videos, Ji Zhaoyun deduced that the opponent didn't seem to be very good at fighting. Since the initial plan failed, he should follow the normal method. Anyway, he has confidence in his own strength.
Ji Zhaoyun guessed right, Shao Ci is indeed not good at fighting, he has never learned any skills, yesterday he won by speed and surprise, today he met Ji Zhaoyun who studied him thoroughly, and immediately exposed himself short board.
However, under the condition of strong spiritual power controlling the audience, Shao Ci saw almost everything about Ji Zhaoyun in his eyes, he could dodge any attack, and he could even dodge sneak attacks as if he had eyes on his back, so it was hard to lose. But it is not easy to win.
During the battle, Shao Ci's mental power completely memorized Ji Zhaoyun's movements, and then unknowingly used it during the battle.
Shao Ci himself didn't realize this, but when he subconsciously used such a move to attack, Ji Zhaoyun was stunned.
"He's actually learning my moves, and he's learning them so fast. Obviously, few people in the academy can learn them well." Ji Zhaoyun recalled the other party's weird movements when he was just warming up, and suddenly there was a terrible feeling in his heart. idea.
"Could it be that this person is a beginner in using mechas? That's why he became like that when he didn't have a spiritual power connection system... If this is the case, how terrible is his spiritual power?"
"If that's the case, then yesterday, he didn't deliberately imitate Senior Pei, but because he didn't know what kind of mecha to use when he participated in the competition for the first time, so he used an old-fashioned mecha, but he won so easily..."
After having such an idea, Ji Zhaoyun couldn't calm down at all, and looked at Little Prince Latiao's mech again, without the contempt he had at the beginning, but with strong curiosity.
He wanted to know how powerful this person's spiritual power was.
Before this, Ji Zhaoyun had seen Pei Shijian as the person with the most spiritual power. He could tell at a glance that even though Pei Shijian was not as strong as many people due to experience and various reasons, as long as he relied on With such a strong mental power, he will definitely be the most powerful person in the future.
What's more, Pei Shijian still has such terrible skills, and he can see infinite possibilities in him. It is precisely because of this that Ji Zhaoyun has become Pei Shijian's brainless fan without hesitation.
But now, he seems to have found a more powerful person.
In fact, to some extent, Ji Zhaoyun and Edwin are quite similar. Both of them pursue the strong, and their attitudes are close to twisted. This is also because of the setting of the protagonist in the original text, which is convenient for the male protagonist in the original text to accept the younger brother, but now it seems to be cheaper than Shao Ci.
Ji Zhaoyun's eyes showed fanaticism, and he approached the opponent without hesitation, and even resorted to the most dangerous method, using his mental power to approach the opponent's mecha.
This is an extremely dangerous method. Only those who are very confident in their spiritual power will do it. If they have an advantage, they can make the opponent lose their control of the mecha and win.
If the opponent's mental power is much stronger than your own, as long as one is not careful, the person who uses this trick will even become a vegetable, and it is very likely that due to the difference in mental power, he will get lost in the opponent's spiritual power world. It's like gambling.
It's not that Ji Zhaoyun is ignorant of the risks, but at this moment, all he wants to see is how strong this person's spiritual power is, and his own safety is secondary.
The audience on the stage thought that a fierce battle would break out, but who knew that this "stay away from me" just rushed over and hugged the mecha of the little prince Latiao, what the hell was he going to do? ! Didn't you fight well before? !
Edwin almost crushed the handle of the seat next to him when he saw this scene, his face was very ugly, "What is going on with this guy, is he trying to use some kind of tricks because he can't beat him?"
The noise from the outside world had gone away, and Ji Zhaoyun was addicted to it the moment his spiritual power touched the opponent's spiritual power.
Such a powerful mental power has drained most of his willpower in an instant, as if his whole body was soaked in the ocean of spiritual power, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance in the air.
No, this fragrance... Ji Zhaoyun, who was close to coma, was startled suddenly, but he woke up from that state directly.
Although Ji Zhaoyun felt that a long time had passed, it was only a moment to the outside world.
Shao Ci felt very bad, the feeling of being invaded by this kind of mental power was like being stripped naked. Anyway, now that Ji Zhaoyun has delivered it to his door, he can do it directly.
The moment Shao Ci directly picked up the weapon against the opponent's cockpit, Ji Zhaoyun also opened his eyes, his fair cheeks flushed, and he looked in the direction of the opponent's mech in astonishment. At the moment of losing, he The voice also blurted out.
"You're actually... an Omega?"
