After receiving Liu Chuan's text message, everyone in the Longyin team quickly gathered on the third floor. Xu Ce frowned and said, "What needs to be discussed urgently?" Liu Chuan's body.
Sitting in front of the computer, Liu Chuan said with a smile: "I just saw the news on the official website that the registration time for this year's city competition is ahead of schedule. Calling everyone here is to discuss registration."
Everyone gathered in front of the computer and saw an official announcement on the top—
Registration for the 20XX Wulin Official City Hero Competition is officially launched!
The various conditions and requirements for registration are written in the announcement. The minimum number of registrations for the team is 6 and the maximum is 9. You need to log in to the website first, and then go to the designated Internet cafe in the nearest city before May 1 for on-site confirmation, and check everyone's status. identity information. The official competition will start on June 1 and will last until the beginning of December. The champion and runner-up will directly qualify for the professional league registration team, while the third and third place will compete with the professional league teams eliminated this year for the other two registration places.
The announcement also lists the rewards for the city competition. The champion, runner-up, season and runner-up will be rewarded with 200,000, 150,000, 100,000, and 80,000 yuan respectively. After the champion and runner-up register the alliance team, there will be a reward fund supported by the new team in the professional league, and professionals will be sent to help the new team determine the location of the team, equipment purchase and other issues.
There are a lot of people following the announcement. As the only way for a private team to advance to the professional league, the city competition of Wulin is very popular every year. Last year, the number of teams that signed up exceeded 10,000. The number of places for the team, plus the bonus, is also higher than last year, and there will be more people signing up.
Xu Ce frowned and said, "May 1st, the 3-month registration period, do you need to be in such a hurry?"
Liu Chuan said: "Registering early is convenient for squatting the team ID. If the name of Longyin is robbed, we have to change the name, which will be very troublesome."
This is also the reason why Liu Chuan is eager to call everyone back. The name of the team in the city competition is not allowed to have the same name. If someone is preemptively registered, they can only add various symbols and letters to the team name to avoid conflicts. Long_yin, Longyin 123... This kind of name really doesn't look good!
When everyone heard Liu Chuan say this, they finally understood the benefits of early registration. Lan Weiran said, "Then register quickly, what are you waiting for?"
Liu Chuan said: "The registration needs to fill in the information of the team members, so I called you back."
Lan Weiran had never paid attention to the city competition, so he didn't know these rules. After listening to Liu Chuan's explanation, he immediately understood and said, "Then fill it out quickly."
Liu Chuan opened the registration page and filled in "Dragon Yin" in the team name. The system check had to pop up a message: "Congratulations, the team name is available!" Liu Chuan quickly pressed OK, and then entered the editing information, while filling in the information. He said, "Silan, give me the picture of the team logo."
Lan Weiran took out the USB flash drive and handed it to him. Sure enough, there was a pattern drawn before. The ice blue dragon-shaped totem looked very beautiful. Liu Chuan uploaded the picture, and the system automatically scaled the icon. This icon will also be in the game. Time to appear as the logo of the team.
Liu Chuan continued to edit the member information. He filled in his own first. When it was time for Lan Weiran, he turned around and asked, "Silan, what ID do you use?"
Lan Weiran said, "Blue."
Liu Chuan wondered: "It used to be four blues, but after retiring, it became one blue?"
Lan Weiran said, "Well, it's easier to read this way."
Liu Chuan was very speechless. He typed the word "blue" and filled in all his personal information.
Qin Ye couldn't report because he was a retired player. Liu Chuan quickly filled in the information of the eight players. Looking at the eight names in the Longyin team list, Liu Chuan smiled with satisfaction, stepped aside and said: " Come and check for yourself, tomorrow we will go to the scene to confirm, the ID number must not be wrong."
Everyone carefully checked the information and confirmed that there was no problem. Liu Chuan submitted the registration information and waited for review.
Yu Xiangyang looked at the red words "under review" at the back of the team, and asked curiously, "How long will this review take?"
Liu Chuan said: "We will go to the site to confirm before passing. Let's go together tomorrow. I will check the designated registration place in Changsha first."
The official announcement comes with designated registration points in major cities across the country. In Changsha, the only officially designated registration point is a "Tianzhiyu Internet Club" located in the urban area. These Internet cafes have a cooperative relationship with the official, and of course they will also Sponsor this competition. By then, the weekly competition of the city competition will be held at the local registration point, and the business of this Internet cafe will definitely be booming.
Liu Chuan wrote down the address of the Internet cafe on his mobile phone and said, "Let's go to the scene together tomorrow, remember to bring your ID card."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
Liu Chuan said: "If you are tired, go back and rest. If you are not tired, you can turn on the computer and look at the rules of the game."
Lan Weiran fell asleep and went to bed, Qin Ye went upstairs to watch a movie, and everyone else stayed. Because of the formal registration, these newcomers were obviously a little excited, and sat in front of the computer to check the rules of the competition and the rules of the players.
Yu Xiangyang sighed while watching: "You are still required to dress up, you can't wear shorts and slippers... And captain, this 'no equipment is not allowed to be changed during the competition' means that you can only buy one set of equipment before entering the competition, right? ?"
Liu Chuan nodded and said, "Yes, you need to think about what equipment you buy in advance."
Yu Xiangyang found another strange rule, saying: "Only the team channel and the public channel are allowed to chat in the game, the private chat channel is not allowed, and it is not allowed to abuse or provoke the opponent, otherwise it will be regarded as a foul... Why ban private chats? what?"
Liu Chuan said with a smile: "For example, when you are in a team battle, the opposite player suddenly sends a private chat message to you, and the private chat prompt sounds in your ear, which will definitely affect your performance. Moreover, the ban on private chat is also to avoid Some team players colluded with each other and leaked secrets."
Yu Xiangyang suddenly realized.
Liu Chuan continued: "Voice is used to communicate during the official game. The purpose of the team chat channel is to record various useful information. For example, Xiao Sijing on the opposite side was killed by you. You can play 'Team Xiao' on the team channel. When sending a message, there will be a system time display next to it. For example, the display time is 10 minutes and 05 seconds, then I know that his resurrection time will be 10 minutes and 15 seconds, and the time he can reach the middle lane will be 10 minutes and 45 seconds, understand Yet?"
Yu Xiangyang nodded immediately: "Understood! Is this time calculated according to the time of the game? The game starts from 00 minutes and 00 seconds, right?"
Liu Chuan rubbed his head with a smile and said, "Smart."
Everyone carefully checked the rules of the game. In short, all the rules are to ensure the discipline and fairness of the game, and players are not allowed to use any cheating methods.
Liu Chuan had been able to memorize these rules of the game for a long time, and after a casual glance, he closed the window. He was very interested in the teams he signed up for. As soon as the list of registered teams was refreshed, more than 500 teams popped up in just one hour. Many of the teams have interesting names. Take you "Super God", "Invincible Legion", "Alien Team", "Non-Human Combination"...
Among the teams, the name "Longyin Team" looks very inconspicuous. No one knows that there are so many famous gods behind this name.
Liu Chuan searched for the keyword "Canglan" again, and sure enough he found a "Team Canglan". The cat god's hand was also very fast. The official announcement was just released today, and the old cat signed up immediately. The team logo is a deformed dark blue wave pattern with a white edge, which is obviously designed by someone, simple and beautiful.
Of course, the team registration information is kept secret, and Liu Chuan can't see who he has reported.
It's just that Liu Chuan's heart is very clear that this will be their strongest opponent on the road to promotion.
At the same time, Hangzhou.
A man is sitting in front of a computer, his face is serious, his dark skin and sturdy facial contours make him look very manly, he is wearing a black turtleneck sweater and simple loose trousers, walking on slippers and sitting at the computer Before, he stared at the computer screen with piercing eyes, and quickly clicked the mouse with his fingers to check the registered teams for the city competition.
The person next to him just formed a sharp contrast with him, with fair skin, a smile, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, and a kind and gentle appearance.
- The two are Li Cangyu, the captain of the Canglan team, and Bai Xuan, the vice-captain.
Seeing that he had been checking the information, Bai Xuan couldn't help but say, "You scroll down page by page, are you looking for Liu Chuan?"
Li Cangyu said: "No, I don't know the name of his team, and there is no need to rush to find him, anyway, we will meet him sooner or later."
Bai Xuan asked suspiciously, "Then what are you looking at?"
Li Cangyu said, "It's boring, just look it up."
Bai Xuan: "..." This reason is actually irrefutable.
Rolling his eyes helplessly, Bai Xuan said, "You are bored, go to the arena with me."
Li Cangyu said: "Okay, I haven't played in the arena for the past few days during the Chinese New Year, but my hands are itchy. Let's go to the team and try it out."
So, the two opened the game client and landed in the seventh battle arena together.
***
Early the next morning, Liu Chuan took everyone to take a taxi to sign up. Eight people stopped two cars. Qin Ye didn't need to go today, so he stayed at home and continued watching science fiction movies.
This Internet cafe is an Internet cafe with the theme of martial arts game. There are many official martial arts posters on the wall. There are also cute figures from the eight schools at the front desk. Most of the people sitting in the Internet cafe are familiar with martial arts games on their computer screens. Interface, obviously, this Internet cafe is the largest gathering place for martial arts players in Changsha.
Liu Chuan took a few teammates to the registration point on the third floor in a low-key manner. Compared with the lobby on the second floor, it was much quieter. The banner of "Wulin City Heroes Competition" was hung on the wall, and six people gathered in front of them filling out the form. , obviously from a team, Liu Chuan sat next to him for a while, and then went to fill out the form after they signed up.
The person in charge of the reception was a boy in his twenties, probably a college student who came to be a volunteer. When Liu Chuan filled in the name "Hainan Baichuan", the boy couldn't help but look up at him and said euphemistically, "This is the alliance. The ID of the strongest Tang clan puppet master, Chuan Shen, it's not good for you to use his ID?"
He obviously thought the person in front of him was a rookie that even Chuan Shen had never heard of...
Liu Chuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, Chuan Shen is very generous, just an ID. I don't think he would mind."
Longyin team members: "..."
Your face can build a city wall, Captain!
The boy at the reception said with a gloomy expression: "This ID is nothing special, you can use it right, but in the martial arts league this ID represents a legend... Although he has retired, the ID of the game server has also been cancelled, you use Of course, you can pass the audit, but for many people, this ID is a kind of commemoration, and it is the only one, you understand? I advise you to change your name, why bother to use this name to scold you?"
The guy in charge of reception must be a die-hard fan of Chuan Shen, otherwise, he would not be so angry because he had to register his ID when he played alone...
The registration of the competition suit must be verified by identity and bound to the ID card of the player. Therefore, the ID of each player is independent, and there is no possibility of ID duplication. Once the registration is successful, players need to submit an application form to modify their ID for approval by the league.
Liu Chuan canceled the ID of "Haina Baichuan" because of his previous retirement. Therefore, if other people want to register this ID, they can also pass the system review of the game suit. Intellectually, everyone can use one ID, but emotionally Said that Chuan Shen has played in the league for so many years, and everyone will definitely not accept the emergence of the second "Hai Na Bai Chuan".
Liu Chuan stared firmly at the boy in front of him, and his mood was suddenly very complicated - he has retired for so long, and many people still remember him, and even stubbornly argue with people because of an ID, this feeling is really difficult. describe.
The fans in front of him firmly maintained the practice of the ID of "Hainan Baichuan", which made Liu Chuan feel very warm.
Liu Chuan looked at him and was silent for a moment before saying, "Please find me a blank piece of paper."
The boy squinted at Liu Chuan, his first impression of the cheeky man in front of him who dared to register the Chuan Shen ID has become a negative value. If it weren't for the professionalism of the receptionist, he would very much like to pour a glass of cold water directly into the other's neck. go down.
The boy reluctantly turned around and took a blank sheet of paper and said, "Why do you want a blank sheet of paper?"
Liu Chuan smiled slightly, picked up the signature pen next to him, and quickly wrote four words on the paper—the sea is open to all rivers.
Handsome cursive script and flying handwriting are the handwriting that many people on the Internet let go of photos but few can imitate. This handwriting seems to be closely related to him, and the unrestrainedness and demeanor revealed from it are beyond the ability of ordinary people to learn.
- This is the signature of Chuan Shen, a unique signature!
The boy in charge of the reception was immediately stunned, staring at the man in front of him in a daze, with a smile still on his face, reaching out and patted his shoulder lightly, leaned over, and said in a low voice, "I am the sea of all rivers. "
