Chapter 408: Byes
"This is impossible? Impossible!"
Guo Hao savored the wine for a while in the audience, but he almost lost all his money to a group of real-life gamblers.
Mihoel had just shown off his dual-professional skills in the previous round, defeating Nangong Zuo head-on and becoming one of the top five favorites in the individual competition. He is very popular and it is said that in real life, some wealthy people have given him luxury cars and mansions.
As a result, they didn't even have time to feel proud. They were defeated in the second game without even making a single wave.
In fact, Mihoel is really powerful and can beat anyone he meets, but unfortunately he met Guo Hao and used the most suicidal method.
Use your own will to burn the sun. Originally, the essence of this solar flame is will and mental power, but Guo Hao carries the destiny of an empire and the faith of all living beings.
Even if Mihor also had the support of the Parthian Empire, it was still unclear whether he could defeat Guo Hao. What's more, the Parthian Empire did not have the imperial will. The backlash of his talent directly took away Mihor, and also took away the fragile hearts of countless gamblers.
Relying on Mihor's personal will to burn Guo Hao was infinitely close to using fire to burn the sun. He died on the spot without even any buffer time.
Mihoel appeared in the audience in a trance, with an extremely dull look, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"How did you die?"
After seeing that Mihoel was normal, a player who was resting nearby came up to him and asked.
Mihoel did not answer, but just stared in the direction of the Han Dynasty.
"...I saw the sun," Mihor said faintly after a long while.
"The authority of the sun? That's really troublesome!" The Parthian players were a little distressed. After all, this game was just a microcosm of a war. Each of them could see the strength and characteristics of the opponent's empire from the opponent's performance.
The Kushan gods and Buddhas, the Japanese shikigami and ninjas, the Goryeo chess calculations and imitations, the Seven Guards of Parthia, the Roman Church, supernatural powers, and authority, the British heroes, treasures, and authority, the chaos and order of North America, and the continuation of the Australian battle.
Currently, only the Han Dynasty seems to have no characteristics, but it seems to have everything. Whether it is talent, equipment, or current authority, similar shadows can be found in other regions.
"No...it's different. It seems to be the real sun!"
Mihol shook his head. Rome had the authority of the sun god, Greece in Great Britain had the Temple of Apollo, and the local indigenous people of Africa also had the legend of the sun god Ra.
Even Gawain of Great Britain was a Sun Knight himself. Kushan had also heard of a Sun Knight. There were also traces of the Sun Amaterasu in Japan.
But Mihor had a feeling that Guo Hao's sun was different, it might be the real sun.
Mihor, who was able to become a top player in Rest in Peace, was definitely very capable. He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and cast his gaze towards other light screens. Since he had already lost, he should accept the reality and continue to observe the players from other countries.
On the other side, Guo Hao was watching other people's games with great interest, but suddenly he received a system message.
[Congratulations on breaking the victory time record. Since you are the first to win, you will have a bye in the next round.]
"Is there such a good thing?" Guo Hao was stunned. He was still thinking about how to allocate the 25 to 12, but he didn't expect the system to directly give a bye, and the reward was given to the person who won the fastest.
Come to think of it, the best treatment should be given to the strongest people, and giving the bye reward to the first place is indeed a good idea.
"We're in trouble. It looks like Huang Wuyue and I are the only ones left in the next round!" Guo Hao looked at the battle on the light screen and shook his head involuntarily. The hidden danger of him harvesting players appeared. Because the unification happened too early, there was already a certain gap between the players of the Han Dynasty and those of other countries.
The gap between the middle and lower levels may not be big, but the gap among the top players is really obvious. The top players from other countries are far ahead all the way, and they basically stepped on the shoulders of other middle and lower level players, with basically no blank period.
The top players of the Han Dynasty were restricted by him for a period of time, and some were even forced to start over again. Some were even captured and forced to do construction for a period of time, which really put them at a disadvantage in terms of equipment and talent.
Especially when facing a strong man like Shelov, even a shield guard who is extremely good at defense is just a sandbag.
The unlucky Zhang Su happened to meet Shelov. With the unique heroism of a fighting nation, Shelov beat Zhang Su to death with his bare fists. Even the thickened armor could not help Zhang Su to survive.
At this level of strength, Shelov has already mastered the power. It is very easy for him to penetrate the power into the armor from a distance. If there is cloud energy to suppress it, Zhang Su can survive for a while with the help of shield.
However, in the cloud where there was no arena, Zhang Su was beaten to death by Shelov, and even the shield in his hand was broken. It is conceivable what happened to Shelov's physical strength.
"Fine work!"
Guo Hao had a headache. This was another opponent who had a 40:60 chance of winning against him. If he could fully master the techniques of light and heavy swords, he could have a slight advantage. However, he had not yet learned the technique of heavy swords, let alone fully master it.
"Dragon Head, look at the eleventh and twelfth arenas!" Sima Bozhong's shout made Guo Hao couldn't help but look up.
"Oh well! Am I so unlucky this round?" Guo Hao couldn't help but covering his face.
Huang Wuyue fights against Garuda of Kushan, Li Lan fights against Brown of North America, plus Zhang Su fights against Shelov. They are simply three unlucky guys.
"Let me see... what is Bai Wushang hitting... what is this thing?"
Guo Hao began to look at other players from the Han Dynasty. These three were basically facing the top five players. As long as they didn't collide with each other and were firmly in the top five, there was basically no hope of winning.
But when he saw Bai Wushang, his opponent shocked Guo Hao.
According to intelligence, Bai Wushang's opponent is just an ordinary knight, but now he is riding a huge beast, and you can tell at a glance that he is not someone to be trifled with.
Moreover, Bai Wushang's BMW was obviously completely suppressed and was trembling the whole time. Not to mention helping Bai Wushang, it couldn't even make things worse.
"Dragon Head, I found out that this guy named Bauer is the Earth Dragon Knight, the strongest knight order of the Bald Eagle Empire of North America. The Earth Dragon carries the power of dragons, which has a huge restraint on ordinary creatures!"
Sima Bozhong said in surprise. Before this, Bauer had never revealed his mount. He always fought on an ordinary warhorse that was condensed with internal energy. Now he suddenly took out an earth dragon. Obviously, Bai Wushang brought him a lot of pressure.
"Okay, one more is gone. Let me see who's left."
