Chapter 3: Rabbit ears teenager
"Everyone should have voted with red and blue tickets, right? Then, the live broadcast of the competition is about to begin o~ According to the previous rules, the first round of the competition is specifically used for screening, a pure elimination round~" The beautiful mermaid flicked their tail and smiled, but the words they uttered were not pleasant, and could even be called vicious: "Because there are too many registered contestants la~ many rotten fish and shrimp mixed in, which will cause the average level of the contestants to be lowered~ so these garbage must be removed first."
The other host was a big white rabbit, about two meters tall and huge. They rolled their eyes in an indecent manner. They were really annoyed with their partner who had not gotten to the point for so long. They impatiently stepped forward to push the mermaid away, a sweet female voice came out of the rabbit's three-petal mouth.
"The rules of the first game are the same as before. Either eliminate ten contestants and advance to the next round, or find the Temple of Heaven and give up the game, or~ become the only lucky person in a single map, get the wish stone, and advance directly to the game... Okay, okay, I won't say anything extra, let's get straight to the point."
The two hosts said in unison what the Star Network crowd was most looking forward to.
"The live broadcast of the game is officially open~ Before the live broadcast, the audience can click on the 'Interstellar Tournament' live broadcast column specially opened on the homepage of the Star Network, find the live broadcast room of the favorite contestant, click to enter, then you can track their game process throughout."
...
This forest is really too weird. Su Yu felt more and more strange as he walked. Why did he say that? It's because every plant and tree in this forest are very similar. This may not be specific enough. In other words, all the trees and flowers in this forest seem to be copied-pasted.
This degree of similarity, has already reached a weird level.
Su Yu broke off a short branch, tore off the small twig on it, picked up a stone on the ground, and grinded the rough part of the branch to make it easier to hold. He also sharpened the other broken end. Having a weapon in hand is always more reassuring than having no weapon.
However, after doing all this, Su Yu was a little out of breath. His physique was not good to begin with. Walking such a long distance and grinding a wooden stick as a weapon almost used up all the exercise for a day.
Helplessly preparing to find a place to rest, he vaguely heard some small sounds.
Su Yu was quite vigilant and looked for a place to cover himself. Facts proved that his vigilance was not wrong. Not long after, a teenager with a slightly round face, whose appearance could not be said to be delicate, but was very cute, with rabbit ears on his head appeared in his sight.
The appearance and dress of the teenager with rabbit ears were obviously not human. Su Yu held his breath. Under circumstances, he was not prepared to have any contact with intelligent creatures of alien civilization.
Su Yu didn't want to, but the teenager was different.
The ears on the top of the rabbit-eared teenager's head trembled, then he turned his head nervously to look at the place where Su Yu was hiding as if he had discovered something: "Is... is there anyone ma?" The teenager asked cautiously.
The language the teenager spoke was very strange. It was expected that it should be the language of their civilization. Su Yu didn't understand it at first, but the voice of the orcs seemed to be automatically translated into Chinese when he heard it in his ears, so Su Yu naturally understood the meaning.
Su Yu became more defensive and did not respond. The rabbit-eared teenager nervously pricked up his ears, waited for a while, and spoke again, his voice was even weaker than before: "Don't attack me, okay! I was forced by my parents to sign up for the Interstellar Tournament, I didn't want to participate in this competition! Woo... I just want to find the Temple of Heaven now."
The three words 'Temple of Heaven' attracted Su Yu's attention. He saw someone chatting on the Star Network, saying that they could quit the competition if they found it, but unfortunately the chat was just a casual mention without detailed explanation. Later, he also searched for news about the Temple of Heaven on the Star Network, but he couldn't find it, so he had to put it aside and give up temporarily.
Silently, he weighed in his mind. His position was obviously exposed. It was impossible to pretend that he didn't exist. It was better to take the initiative to ask, Su Yu said with a slightly tentative intention: "What is the Temple of Heaven?"
The rabbit-eared teenager's eyes flashed slightly, he asked in surprise: "Don't you know ma?"
Su Yu was silent and did not respond.
"I'm sorry..." The rabbit-eared teenager may have realized that his question was not appropriate. He apologized to Su Yu in a low voice then said: "The Interstellar Tournament has always had a rule, that is, in the first round of the competition, if the contestants regret, they are allowed to withdraw... The way to withdraw is to find the 'Temple of Heaven', you can teleport out and terminate the competition."
Just looking at what the rabbit-eared teenager said, it is more consistent with some information Su Yu found on the Internet. He didn't say nonsense because Su Yu didn't understand. So far, the rabbit-eared teenager is still credible.
"Do you know where the Temple of Heaven is?" Su Yu asked.
"Ah! Do you also want to find the Temple of Heaven too ma? Do you want to quit the competition?" The rabbit-eared teenager blinked and said in surprise: "Then let's find it together ba! Although I haven't found the Temple of Heaven yet, I know where it is roughly!"
Su Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally came out from his hiding place.
"Go go ba!" The rabbit-eared teenager seemed to want to reassure Su Yu, or perhaps because he was nervous, he turned his back to Su Yu and ran forward for a distance, then turned back and waved: "If we want to go to the Temple of Heaven, we have to hurry! Otherwise, there will be some annoying people guarding the Temple of Heaven! It will be too late then."
Su Yu followed the rabbit-eared teenager.
"What kind of civilization are you from a? Why do you feel that you don't know much about the Interstellar Tournament ne? Were you also forced to sign up for the Interstellar Tournament a?" The rabbit-eared teenager's tone was innocent, it was completely unclear whether he was deliberately trying to find out information or really asking casually.
Fortunately, the rabbit-eared teenager did not require Su Yu to answer, and said: "The venue here is a replica of the Ten Thousand Mirror Forest of the Loran Empire. I have been there before, so I guess that the 'Temple of Heaven' should be set up next to the Mirror Lake in the center of the forest. It is unlikely to be set up in other places because the trees in the Ten Thousand Mirror Forest are the same!"
"Right la, my name is Bai Shuang!1 I am a rabbit orc belonging to the Chalk Civilization! You can call me Lil' Bai, my friends all call me that!" said the rabbit-eared teenager.
The two talked while walking. Of course, 99% of the time it was the rabbit-eared teenager who was talking and Su Yu was listening.
On the outside Star Network, in the live broadcast channel of the Interstellar Tournament, all the live broadcast rooms were broadcasting contestants' competition process simultaneously.
There were powerful contestants who bullied weak contestants, there were also contestants who began to look for candidates everywhere in the hope of forming a team. The largest number of them were contestants who could not adapt to the competition, so they looked for the location of the 'Temple of Heaven' and wanted to withdraw.
There were also some contestants with more...special... behaviors.
For example, the live broadcast room of a rabbit-eared teenager.
At this moment, the audience in this live broadcast room all had the same look of demantia.
[My name is Bai Shuang, you can call me Lil' Bai... I'm so scared a!]
[To be honest, I almost thought I went to the wrong live broadcast room! I just exited and took a look at the words in the search box. Not wrong a, I searched for 'Bai Wuqing' a! It's the little prince of our Chalk civilization a!]
[Grass! My scalp is numb! The little prince actually! Dressed up as a rabbit orc! And pretended to be weak! ! ! Oh my God, no, maybe I'm blind, I'll take my eyes down and wash them!]
[Don't say anything, let's mourn for this person from an unknown civilization first ba, it's too miserable.]
Star Network Hotspot, the popularity of a post began to slowly climb.
#Shock my mother for a hundred years, Bai Wuqing was transformed into a weak rabbit orc in the Interstellar Tournament!#
All the Star Network people who saw this hot spot were shocked. Bai Wuqing, this name is so familiar, okay? The civilization he belongs to is the Chalk Civilization, one of the five major civilizations. The race is Celestial Fox, with extremely pure bloodline, he is also the youngest child of the current Chalk Empress!
After the tiger body trembled1, goose bumps appeared crazily, then the Star Network people rushed to search for the live broadcast room of 'Bai Wuqing' with great excitement! Really, they really don't want to see how the Chalk Little Overlord pretends to be a weak rabbit, they also really don't want to watch the fun! They just want to see which contestant is so unlucky that they will meet Bai Wuqing! Although they can't help much, they can mourn for people a!
Interstellar Tournament, in the Ten Thousand Mirror Forest map.
Su Yu and Bai Shuang have passed through the Ten Thousand Mirror Forest and came to the Mirror Lake in the center.
"Ah... Ah? Where is the Temple of Heaven ne?" Bai Shuang wanted to rush to the lake to take a look.
"Don't go! There may be someone guarding the lake!" Su Yu pulled Bai Shuang. There were wide grasslands beside the Mirror Lake. If there were people hiding in the dark, it would be too easy to become a target if they stood there.
Bai Shuang obviously didn't expect Su Yu's behavior, his body reflexively attacked, but he also suppressed his instinct at the same time. He lowered his head with a strange expression, looked at the place where his skin touched, and looked at Su Yu strangely, silent...
Su Yu noticed that Bai Shuang was abnormal, quickly withdrew his hand.
Bai Shuang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but thinking that he was still wearing a vest, he could only explain his vest in a dry and low voice: "I am very timid, so few people touch me, for fear of scaring me..."
The audience in the live broadcast room lost their minds again.
[Let me tell you a joke. His Highness Bai is very timid. Hahaha, this child have already died of laughter in front of the screen.]
[So, what is the purpose of Bai Wuqing's behavior? The operation is too coquettish, I don't understand a!]
[Whispering, it seems that this is because the little prince was forced into the Interstellar Tournament by the Empress.]
[So Bai Wuqing wants to withdraw from the competition? Don't a, woohoo, I voted my red ticket for Bai Wuqing!]
After observing for a while, Bai Shuang and Su Yu walked over to make sure that there was no one next to the Mirror Lake.
"Alas! The Temple of Heaven is not here!" Bai Shuang was depressed.
"Hmm..." Su Yu's tone was flat. Somehow, his eyes swept across the blue flowers blooming by the Mirror Lake. Suddenly, he asked curiously: "Do you rabbit orcs like to eat grass ma? I saw it on the Star Network last time. You Chalk herbivorous orcs seem to like to eat Mirror Lake flowers."
Bai Shuang was stuck for a moment. He didn't expect Su Yu to ask this suddenly. He looked at the blue Mirror Lake flowers, it seemed to be true... There are also people who specialize in artificially growing Mirror Lake flowers, drying them and selling them to herbivorous orcs as snacks. Oops, how could he forget such an obvious flaw ne?
"Are you really a rabbit orc ma?" Su Yu asked suddenly.
"Of course a, are you doubting me ma?" Bai Shuang.
Su Yu bent down and picked a few small flowers and handed them to Bai Shuang.
Bai Shuang knew that Su Yu was doubting him, so he took the Mirror Lake flower and ate it all without hesitation. After that, he raised his head and looked at Su Yu with a very aggrieved look, saying sadly: "How can you doubt me!"
Su Yu did not answer, but stared at Bai Shuang quietly.
Bai Shuang felt strange and asked tentatively: "What's wrong?"
Su Yu: "Don't you feel uncomfortable somewhere ma?"
