…
afternoon.
Wu Hui was leaning against a towering stone pillar at the edge of the square, waiting boredly for the tournament to begin.
The weather is nice today. Although it is past noon, the sun above our heads is still bright and dazzling.
He just stood there casually, the golden sunlight pouring down on his profile, as if it had coated him with a layer of light, making his already profound facial features even more three-dimensional. From a distance, he looked as perfect as a sculpture.
Wu Hui himself didn't notice it, but the picture was really attractive.
There were giant girls in beautiful clothes passing by constantly, their cheeks slightly red, "looking straight ahead". Some of them even passed by twice or three times...
In addition to the girls, many other giants in the crowd often subconsciously stopped when passing by and whispered to their friends around them, as if they were confirming Wu Hui's identity. After confirmation, an expression of awe and excitement appeared in their eyes.
That look was exactly the same as those fans on Earth who meet their idols on the street, except that they were covering their faces and screaming with excitement.
However, perhaps because Wu Hui is now famous, he feels a distance from ordinary giants. The most they do is take a photo or record a video from a distance as a souvenir, or get excited secretly for a while, but they do not rashly disturb Wu Hui.
Wu Hui just went with them.
Just when I was bored, Garfield finally came back after dinner.
He had a bitter face, and as soon as he saw Wu Hui, he couldn't help but say apologetically: "Brother, I'm sorry..."
"What's going on?" Wu Hui looked at him suspiciously.
"It's all that McCarran's fault. He's so shameless!" Garfield angrily recounted what happened at the dinner table.
He was still furious at this moment, and as he spoke he couldn't help but curse McAllen to pieces, wishing he could tear him into pieces.
"If I had known earlier, I should have taken a picture of him making a fool of himself outside the pub instead of letting it go so easily."
"Okay~ What's the point of you saying this now?"
Wu Hui sighed helplessly.
He didn't expect that after just a meal, he would inexplicably end up with a pot on his back, and it was a black one.
He was not afraid, he just thought it was troublesome.
I always feel that the more he wants to keep a low profile, all kinds of accidents will always appear, making it impossible for him to keep a low profile.
"But now I really don't know what to do." Garfield was quite frustrated. "I explained it to you, but they didn't believe it at all."
"For this kind of thing, explanations are useless unless you have sufficient evidence." Wu Hui said calmly, "It's just that more people hate me. It doesn't have much impact on me. You don't have to care so much."
"But what if..."
Garfield was still struggling when a low and distant bell suddenly rang in the square.
The afternoon competition began.
The entire Giant Square suddenly fell silent. Wu Hui and Garfield were also startled, then they all shut their mouths and focused their attention on the platform in the center of the square.
The inner court guards in charge of hosting the competition had already arrived at the platform in advance.
As the bell rang, the deputy captain of the inner court guard, Reg, loudly announced the official start of the eight-to-four competition. He began to host the ceremony according to the competition process, called the top eight contestants to the stage, and started a new round of drawing lots.
