In the arena hall, the two doors with blue and red lights are always the attention of all the participants waiting outside. The duration of a virtual exercise battle actually does not take too long. The virtual world and the outside time pass at different speeds. No matter how long it goes on, it will be compressed into a certain time range, which is probably only a few hours. Therefore, it is impossible for people outside to know how long the virtual battle lasts.
But this time it was less than an hour, which was relatively short. The red light suddenly dimmed and then the blue light gradually extinguished after thirty seconds. This gap also allowed the people watching outside to see at a glance the outcome of the victory between the Burning Legion and Emerald Dream Legion.
This result was an unexpected but predictable outcome. Of all the legions waiting outside, only two legions had their faces darkened because of this outcome.
The former fifth place and the former fiftieth place were excluded from the top five seats, while the latter was directly kicked out of the parliamentary seats. If Burning Legion wins, he will directly get the fourth place, while Cuimeng and other legions behind will move one place further.
Many participants looked at Xiao Ran and others walking out of the blue door, and noticed the calm smile on their faces that had not changed much at all. The first feeling in many people's minds was that the next parliament was going to change.
Burning Legion, a legion that had no fame or even any sense of existence not long ago, gradually became famous because of a store, and everyone Legion Zone knew that there was such a legion with a very powerful Technical Strength. This was just the beginning.
But later, as more and more things were sold in the Burning Legion store, more participants became aware of the existence of the Burning Legion. When using the high-end airframe produced by the Burning Legion, the battleship participants became more and more active in the mission. Many participants who were deceived have firmly remembered the name Burning Legion. From that time on, Burning Legion became a mysterious army with powerful Technical Strength, whose members acted strangely but did not communicate with Outside World at all.
And until more A-Class Pilot and even S-class Pilot were tricked by the members of the Burning Legion in the mission, the mystery of the Burning Legion not only did not diminish due to more exposure, but became more difficult to Takuma.
At the end of the day, Burning Legion took the initiative to lift the veil of mystery. It shocked the audience with the fourth ranking given by the evaluation team as soon as it appeared, and successfully solved the original fourth place. Many participants scratched their heads and could not imagine how such a powerful legion developed. And is Burning Legion really only ranked fourth?
If I had to use four words to describe it, it would be... that, that, that, that, that.
After Xiao Ran came out, he slowly walked to the center of the hall, where he had just met Emerald Dream Legion Qinglong. He faced the direction of the red door with his hands behind his back and a leisurely smile. This behavior was not strange, but others felt it was a bit provocative.
"Congratulations, congratulations to Xiao Ran Legion Leader, congratulations to the Burning Legion for officially entering Legion Council."
Congratulations suddenly sounded, and Shadow Blade Legion, whose ranking dropped from thirty-three to thirty-four, emerged from the crowd and came to Xiao Ran.
Shadow Blade Legion's Vice Legion Leader Bicchy, and Legion Leader Sute.
Xiao Ran has never met Sute, but he is familiar with Bicchy. Cruze walked up and introduced Xiao Ran first, "Legion Leader of the Shadow Blade Legion, Sute, one of our own."
"That's right, one of our own." Xiao Ran nodded to Sute and Bicchy with a smile and said, "Thank you."
Sute bent down slightly and said very politely, "Legion Leader is so polite."
"Big Legion Leader?" Xiao Ran raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "This is an interesting title. I have been busy dealing with things here these days, so I didn't ask too much about your current situation. We will find a place to sit down and have a good chat in a moment."
"Okay." Sute nodded repeatedly, with a bright smile on his face.
Bolsia Legion's Cang also came to Xiao Ran, smiling like a spring breeze, "Congratulations, Xiao Ran Legion Leader, you will directly become the fourth after entering the parliament. I hope Xiao Ran Legion Leader in the future Please take good care of. On behalf of everyone in Bolsia, I would like to express my congratulations to Xiao Ran Legion Leader and Burning Legion. We have prepared a big gift that will be sent directly to your corps later."
"That's too polite." Xiao Ran said with a smile, "Then I will accept the gift shamelessly, but it is inevitable that care will not lead to cooperation. I am also willing to make progress and retreat with Bolsia in the future."
"As long as it doesn't affect Burning Legion."
The latter sentence was not spoken, but Cang could definitely know what Xiao Ran was thinking. Now the two legions, one third and one fourth, were already talking about cooperation before Burning Legion entered the parliament. It was only because Bolsia expressed the hope of further cooperation that it was delayed and no real cooperation treaty was signed. However, this does not affect anything. The signing of the cooperation treaty is already a very inevitable thing.
However, Cang is also curious about what Burning Legion's strength is, but he won't ask and doesn't want to find out. Even if the cooperation is confirmed next, he will definitely sign a cooperative leap from an equal height that can be mutually beneficial for both parties, not a support clause, let alone take advantage of the Burning Legion.
If you take advantage in one aspect, you have to pay more in another aspect. The more you take advantage, the more you have to pay. If you take advantage, it is not a good thing. No matter whether Burning Legion is stronger or weaker than Bolsia, the purpose of cooperation is win-win and common growth, rather than trying to get more benefits when Burning Legion is weak. On the other hand, what if Burning Legion is strong? Getting more benefits from the Burning Legion will only lead to one result, that is, without the help of the Burning Legion, it will eventually become a subsidiary of the Burning Legion. Burning Legion has never been a simple legion.
It's a very simple logic, but Cang told himself very rationally that he didn't need to explore anything about the Burning Legion. If he really wanted to know clearly, he would be the only one who would have a headache and struggle. In this case, he would just not explore a simple cooperation from the beginning.
Finally, the fifth person Xiao Ran had been waiting for, the fifth person Emerald Dream Legion, came out. The expression on his face was very complicated, very strange, very special. There were thousands of kinds of wretchedness that he couldn't speak out, which made them feel tight in the chest and headache.
After seeing Xiao Ran, Qinglong suddenly thought of Xiao Ran's demonic whispers during the virtual confrontation, and his feet couldn't help but soften a little. He really didn't want to face Xiao Ran in the past., but the staring gaze of Xiao Ran made him unable to retreat. He took a deep breath to muster up his last confidence and momentum and walked towards Xiao Ran, but no matter how he looked at it, it looked like the emoticon of Squirtle encouraging courage.
Cang also saw Qinglong walking over, nodded friendly to Qinglong and then stepped aside. After Qinglong walked in front of Xiao Ran, he took a few deep breaths and forced himself to smile, a very forced and embarrassing smile.
"Congratulations to you, Xiao Ran Legion Leader, and congratulations to the Burning Legion for advancing to fourth place. I really hope to communicate more with the Burning Legion in the future."
"Of course we can communicate." Xiao Ran said very friendly and kindly, "I also think we should communicate more."
Qinglong nodded his head, then nodded again, and kept his awkward smile that was incomprehensible, "Then I will take the people and leave first, without disturbing Xiao Ran Legion Leader. I will visit when I have time."
"Please."
A voice suddenly sounded, shouting with some dissatisfaction, "Wait a minute."
These three words attracted the attention of most people present, and immediately one of the participants whispered, "The fifth-ranked legion Gray Rock."
"Hey, it's not fifth, it's sixth. I'm afraid I'm very unhappy about being kicked out of the top five this time, and I'm probably going to get angry."
Cang chuckled, lowered his head and whispered to Xiao Ran, "Grey Rock Legion's Gray Rock, it's rare to see someone use his own name as the name of his legion. He is very confident and arrogant, but he still has some strength. His specialty is defense, which is a big turtle rarely seen in Prometheus."
Xiao Ran also looked at the person who stood up with interest. "Human shield? That's quite special."
Qinglong slowly turned around and looked at the person who stood up, and suddenly changed into the look he had when he first saw him before Xiao Ran: "Hui Yan, what are you going to do?"
The man named Hui Yan was a sweaty man with a rather sturdy build. His hands were also unusually strong, and he was over two meters tall. He definitely felt a sense of oppression when he walked over.
Hui Yan had a mocking look on his face. "Trash is trash. To think that the fourth place was snatched away by a bastard who came out of nowhere. I think you have never been truly qualified for fourth place. Bai has been sitting in this position for so long and has not made any progress at all."
Suddenly, many people's eyes were on Xiao Ran, and Qinglong turned into a vague existence. In fact, even Qinglong also set his eyes on Xiao Ran at this time.
The corners of Xiao Ran's mouth still maintained a small arc, and the smile did not change at all because of what this gray rock said.
Xiao Ran said lightly, "I'm looking for you."
"Oh." Qinglong reacted instantly and nodded. His eyes became cold and cruel, staring at the gray rock. "What are you going to do?"
"Of course I'm challenging you to take back our position!" Hui Yan said and also looked at Xiao Ran, but it only took one glance before he focused his attention on Qinglong again.
"Ha." Qinglong was so angry at this moment that he burst out laughing. He was also laughing at Hui Yan's ignorance.
You bastard, I lost to the Burning Legion, you really thought I was a soft persimmon, NTM has the ability to challenge Burning Legion! Hundreds of S-class Pilot I know but will I tell you!? NTM, have you ever experienced being surrounded by hundreds of pilots, you bastard!
Whether I, the fourth, no, fifth, am qualified to sit in this position, I have to let you take a good look today.
Qinglong sneered, "Full scale, encounter, 200 million bets."
Huiyan gritted his teeth and grinned. "Okay, it's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun, so we might as well start now."
"Okay."
Cruze smiled and said, "Don't you express your gratitude?"
"What do you mean, use this kind of virtual battle to make him realize his mistake without any pain?" Xiao Ran smiled lightly and said, "Well, many people have bad mouth. Even if you scare him, it won't be able to cure him. And I'm not the kind of person who has to take everyone through life and death to get my revenge just for a few words."
Cruze smiled and said nothing. Xiao Ran is indeed not the kind of person who would lead the entire legion to find trouble for his own selfish interests, but Xiao Ran is definitely not a generous person. He will not lead the legion to take risks for nothing. But if he feels that it is not an adventure, then it is hard to say.
"Miscellaneous hair? Haha." Cruze suddenly smiled and looked at Cang next to him, and asked, "Mr. Cang, we are now in fourth place, but I still don't know what kind of rights the top five have in this parliament."
Cang said from the side, "It's not just rights but also some obligations. The purpose of Legion Council was to reduce the disputes between Real Zone legions and serve as a coordinator to coordinate the conflicts between legions as much as possible. Real Zone was also in chaos for a long time because of the conflicts between legions until Legion Council was established."
"Although it is not entirely possible to suppress coordination by opening Legion Wars, after all, the nature of the participants is to fight, and not everyone really takes the council seriously, so the top five are more of a card, but many purchases in Prometheus can get two levels of discounts. It may not seem important but it is of great significance to the long-term development of a legion, such as the reduction of penalties for Prometheus."
"This is just one of them. In non-ranking competitions, the top five legions have the right to reject any Legion Wars challenge initiated by any legion. There are other more Legion Permissions, such as the right to veto."
"Then there is legion trade coordination, Shared Territory management rights, usage rights, the opportunity to be completely exempted from punishment within a single mission cycle, etc. However, if there are participants in Real Zone who disrupt Real Zone or the legion appears, the top five will also be the leaders to handle it."
"In terms of obligations, the operating funds of the parliament are provided by the five major legions. Many specific things cannot be explained in just a few words. You still need to understand it yourself."
Xiao Ran nodded slightly. Now all the legions in Prometheus can be said to be in a state of competition, but the appearance of Legion Council seems to be used to ensure that the competitive environment of Prometheus is normal rather than chaotic. If a legion is regarded as a country, of course it is much stronger than many countries like Burning Legion, so there will definitely be some nonsense.
This is just a platform, a platform with benefits and gains. It can strengthen the connection between the legions and strengthen the trade between the legions. It can quickly find what you need from the product catalog of the council and what can be exchanged. The exchange of internal resources is also a good thing.
But if you really want to say it, this is just a platform. If you really don't take this platform seriously, then it's nothing. So what if Prometheus is behind you? No one knows the virtues of Prometheus better than Burning Legion. It's just a more advanced computer that can't break the rules and even freezes.
