At the end of the second round, there were only 720 contestants left in [Battle of the Cocoon].

Wang Tanzhi was among them.

After that game, Brother Long communicated with Xiao Tan once, and exchanged some information about the situation at that time. Long Aomin is indeed a very "big way" person, he is very open-minded after losing. He wasn't annoyed at all, on the contrary, he admired Xiao Tan's surprising tactics so much that he almost applauded...

Anyway, Daofeng is not a commercial game studio, and there is no ranking requirement for the members, so it doesn't matter if Brother Long loses.

However, the game did generate quite a bit of discussion on the forums. Because Long Ge sent Meng Jingchan to the play-offs in the first round, many players once regarded him as a dark horse in this competition. As a result, after only one round, [Long Aomin], an ID who had become popular just now, revealed the news of being eliminated...

"I said earlier, Long Aomin won the first round only by luck." This kind of view has sprung up on the forum like mushrooms after rain. In fact... 90% of the people who expressed these opinions have never watched Brother Long's game... and they haven't watched two rounds. They just read some posts and news, made some guesses based on the results of the incident, and published some fallacies.

Of course, there are quite a few players who have actually watched the battle of Wu Tanzhi VS Long Aomin. Most of them came to watch Brother Long, but they didn't expect the result of the tunnel battle to be like this... let alone the process would be so dramatic.

Xiaotan completed a classic kill in front of thousands of spectators. Although there was an element of luck in it, as Feng Bujue said, since he could come up with this idea and dare to take the risk to do it, then he would deserve this victory.

It's just... Compared to Brother Long's fame after the first round, the ID [Van Tanzhi] is still not popular. It seems that most people still think he won the fluke.

...

At one o'clock in the morning on May 21st, the third round began.

Like the previous two rounds, Xiao Tan was on standby in the landing space on time.

Still the familiar system prompt: [The third round of the Cocoon War is about to begin, your data will be loaded in 30 seconds, please do not leave the landing space.]

[Countdown ten seconds before loading, nine, eight, seven... two, one.]

But... after the countdown ended, the opening remarks did not come as expected.

After about five seconds of silence, Xiao Tan just felt that something was wrong, and the system voice sounded: [No matching target was found, you have a bye for this round, congratulations, you will directly enter the fourth round.]

"Huh?" Xiao Tan was a little at a loss after hearing the prompt. It took dozens of seconds before he realized, "Is anyone not queuing up on time?"

Obviously, yes.

It was a coincidence that one of the 720 players who entered the third round of [Battle of the Cocoon] did not come tonight. The reason is that his wife gave birth... and was taken to the hospital in the evening, so he didn't go online at all tonight.

If there is an even number of players absent, the system can still complete pairwise pairing until the number of players in the next round becomes odd. But there's only one missing tonight, so... one player has a bye.

And Xiaotan is the one with the bye.

Five minutes later, when he came to Feng Bujue's conference room and told about his direct promotion, Brother Jue complained: "Your character... If you give me 20%, I will sell it all tomorrow. Family property, bought a plane ticket to Macau."

...

All in all, Xiaotan made it to the top 360 without any surprises.

On the second day, the bye matter was heated up, and many IDs who were obviously cyber trolls put on a serious attitude and fired at Dream Company in various forums.

Breaking apart and crushing the argument of this group of people, and then looking at its core meaning, it is simply "This is not fair! The eliminated so-and-so in the play-offs should be allowed to play against him! The winner advances!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that this is a farce operated by some low-level game studios, wanting to give their eliminated players another chance. These studios regard the bye incident as a life-saving straw, and widely send gunmen, claiming to be bystanders, pretending to be filled with righteous indignation, and spare no effort to create public opinion in an attempt to put pressure on the game company.

But they apparently got it wrong...

Dream Company is not an ordinary game operator. It is basically their motto to go their own way and let others laugh and scold.

The situation where a player is unable to compete due to off-court factors has long been stated in the rules, and it is regarded as a waiver, and there is no objection at all. So Dream Company completely ignores those sailors.

So, after a whole day of fussing with no results, the gunmen turned into anger and focused their attention on Xiao Tan one after another. It can be said that they were venting their anger... In short, Xiao Tan has been targeted. If he performed well in the fourth round, then people would naturally have nothing to say; but if he appeared vulnerable, he would definitely become the main excuse for the trolls to attack after the game.

At that time... "If so-and-so is allowed to play, he must be promoted!", "Dream Company would rather give a bye to the promotion than give a chance to a capable player. What's the justice?" Such remarks are bound to blow out, This is already predictable...

...

On May 22nd, at one o'clock in the morning, the fourth round of [Battle of the Cocoon].

"Three sleeping cocoons in the darkness of the deep forest, and the softness of twisting the fingers for a hundred refinements." After the countdown ended, the system's voice recited the opening words sonorously.

[The loading has been completed, you are currently fighting for the peak hegemony - the battle of the cocoon.]

[This mode has no script introduction, no branch/hidden missions and special world view.]

[Script Victory Reward: Advance to the Top 180]

[The main task has been triggered]

[Kill the opponent]

Xiao Tan was transported to a black wasteland, the ground was made up of hard rocks, and not a single blade of grass grew; looking around, it was vast and empty, and there were no obvious landmarks.

A full moon hangs in the sky.

Two figures stood proudly.

A familiar face appeared in Wang Tanzhi's sight. Without going through the game menu to confirm, Xiaotan recognized the opponent—[Seven Kills].

Qisha also recognized the man dressed as an assassin in the distance.

There's no way to play tricks on this map, and both of them are well aware of this.

The friendship between Qisha and Brother Long is also good, and besides, this is not the first time he has met Xiaotan. Therefore, it is also impossible to expect him to underestimate the enemy.

The bright moon is thousands of miles away, and the killing intent is overwhelming.

The winner advances, the loser is eliminated. There is no retreat, and no one will back down.

"Huh... Such a map, such an opponent... I must be in danger..." Xiaotan adjusted his breathing, and thought to himself, "But..." He looked down at his hand, "Why are you shaking with excitement? ... Could it be that deep in my heart ... is longing for such a battle ... "()RT
