Black Tech Internet Cafe System Chapter 207 About the Competition

Satisfied, Fang Qi returned to the counter and sat down. “Let’s continue with the explanation of the competition rules.”

“Oh… Ok!” Many of them were still dazed.

Since this thing was beyond their control, they ignored it.

“We’ll talk about the rules of the team competition,” Fang Qi said, “The members in the teams entering the Counter Strike Competition must belong to the same force, and they can have only one member from outside of the faction. The team can also have two substitutes.”

Su Tianji who had just enlisted Nalan Hongwu, Nalan Mingxue, and Xu Zixin fell silent when she heard this rule.

More importantly, cultivation strength wasn’t a key factor in the shooting game.

Tactics and experiences were valuable.

In the game, the players were all ordinary people, and they used guns which were new weapons for them. All of these were big restrictions for high-level cultivators and warriors.

They must change some of their long-standing habits.

For example, in the real world, Su Tianji could move quickly to dodge bullets or activate her spiritual energy to block them. However, in the game, she wouldn’t have the reaction speed to dodge the bullet after seeing it coming.

They had to make predictions by watching their opponents aiming angles and trigger-pulling time. That was all that they could do.

If the predictions were made a bit earlier, they didn’t know if their opponents would flick-shot or not.

Once, Fang Qi had killed Su Tianji in the game with a flick-shot!

Therefore, the high-level cultivators and warriors were not guaranteed to be stronger than the low-level ones who were proficient with this game; the former only had a little advantage.

Xue Daolv was happy. Ignoring Su Tianji who was cussing at Fang Qi silently, he praised, “Sir! This is a good rule! It helps the unity of the faction!”

“I don’t agree!” Su Tianji was furious that she wasn’t allowed to form a team after she found teammates.

“Your objection is not valid.” Fang Qi began to explain the next rule expressionlessly.

Su Tianji: “…”

“A competition?” At this moment, Emperor Ji Wu, who was disguised as a middle-aged man, walked into the shop. “These are the rewards of the competition?”

He had witnessed the power of the guns, a new type of spiritual artifacts. Although he hadn’t seen the items in Diablo 2, he guessed that they were not bad since they were listed beside guns.

However, should I enter this competition with my status? Then, he remembered that he was disguised, and thus it didn’t matter.

He looked at Nalan Hongwu by his side and asked, “Senior Duke, will you enter as well?”

Since only people of the same fraction could form a team, it was hard for him to control the result. Therefore, Nalan Hongwu decided to enter the individual competitions of Diablo.

After playing Diablo for a long time, he only killed monsters and hadn’t battled against other players yet!

He had heard about Fang Qi combining Holy Shock and Innumerable Sword Scroll, which showed that the skills in Diablo were highly useful!

His paladin character had the best items and the highest level next to Fang Qi. With his skills, he had no one to be afraid of.

Besides, different from Counter Strike, the battles in Diablo had less restrictions for the high-level cultivators and warriors.

It was worth a try!

Li Haoran also registered for the Diablo competition. Comparatively, he played Diablo longer than Counter Strike!

How should he choose his items?

He had entered the competition for the sake of items.

The items in Diablo had many properties. Besides various elemental damages such as ice and fire which were common in the cultivation world, there were many properties including indestructibility, self-healing, increase in skill level, and even invisibility.

The advantage with the indestructibility was evident.

Although there were rare spiritual artifacts that could heal themselves, the items with a self-repair property in Diablo were more common!

As for the skill-level increase, if such an attribute could be developed, the items would be highly valuable. For example, if the spiritual artifacts could improve the Blue Flame Heavenly Scroll, the cultivation technique of Blue Flame Fraction, by one level, then it would be precious! It would be as valuable as the supreme treasure of the faction that could increase the power of the Blue Flame Heavenly Scroll by 40%!

As for invisibility, it was like giving the artifacts an extra disguise spiritual spell!

“Hu! It’s hard to decide…” Li Haoran exhaled deeply. As the disciple of Jun Yangzi, the No.1 Artifact Master of the Blue Flame Faction, he was very eager to learn about these things.

After registration, he bought a bowl of instant noodles and sat down on a couch, talking about items with An Cheng and the others who had finished registration.

“Ugh? That fatty is…” While they talked, they saw a familiar figure.

“He’s Mr. Fang’s friend.” An Cheng said, “He teams with Song Qingfeng as a necromancer.”

They knew about him since Song Qingfeng’s Diablo team had the second best progress in the whole shop.

Although Fatty Wang gamed less than the others, he had a special advantage; he was the only necromancer in his team and the necromancer with the highest level and best items in the entire Origins Internet Club!

Since this class had to deal with skeletons and corpses each day, few people liked it, and not many people had such a character.

Even though this class was powerful, so were the others.

That was why few people played it.

“Qi! I’ll enter the competition!” Wang Tai walked to the counter and said excitedly.

After all, he didn’t even play the Legend of the Sword and Fairy; he focused all his attention on Diablo!

His performance during the national examination was not as good as his peers, but he had at least entered the Lingyun List. After returning to the academy, he had received more support and got more funds.

He had been saving for the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, and now he found that the shop was holding a Diablo competition!

He thought that it was a good opportunity for him. He didn’t expect to get to the top three, but if he could win a trial membership, he would have two more hours of game time each day for one week!

…

During the day, the whole shop was bustling with customers talking about registration, items, and teaming up.

It was a novelty for the people in this world that they could compete in the virtual games and win real rewards!

Even people in the Yunshan Tavern which used to be a gathering place for independent warriors began talking about it.

From Resident Evil to Counter Strike, the cheap and fun games which could increase their cultivation strengths had always been their top choices!
