Chapter 183: Mage! Mage of the New Era

……

The sword girl groaned, her face turned pale due to the impact of the mental storm, and she staggered backwards, her brain was in a mess and her head was buzzing.

"Da da da!"

Several drones have locked onto Irelia at the same time, firing three bursts of shots to form a small fire net that enveloped her in the blink of an eye.

But this sword girl was also very capable. In a panic, she rolled to the ground and avoided the bullet.

A dozen bullets hit the ring, breaking the thick granite into flying pieces. Some stray bullets splashed out of the battle zone and flew into the onlookers. One of them was blocked by a burly supernatural being with his body, and another was blocked by a supernatural being with a sword.

Those who can watch nearby are at least C-level extraordinary people. If you can't even block stray bullets, don't come out. Besides, even if you get hit by a bullet, it doesn't matter. There are still many extraordinary treatment methods, and many extraordinary abilities can provide instant treatment.

On the other side, Irelia had just dodged the drone's firepower and breathed a sigh of relief. But before she had time to rejoice, she saw that the two robot dogs had turned around and locked onto her. Flames were already spewing out from behind the quad-rocket launcher installed on its back.

Almost in the next moment, two rocket shells flew out of the chamber, heading towards her with long tails of flame.

Because the two sides were so close, the attack happened almost instantly.

Mudd!

The knife girl's reaction was quite fast. She shook her hands hard and threw both swords out at the same time.

The blade rolled in the air and intercepted two of them.

"Boom! Boom!!"

Amidst a violent roar, two rocket shells exploded in the air, sending flames and shock waves raging.

But at this time, the other three robot dogs had quickly locked onto her again, and three more rocket shells poured down. With no sword left to throw, the sword girl could only crawl away at a high speed.

"Boom boom boom!"

Rocket shells exploded one after another behind her buttocks, the thick granite floor of the arena was blown to pieces, gravel flew everywhere, and she was swept away by the shock wave, jumping, running and howling.

At this point, having lost the advantage of the first move, Irelia had no chance of winning anymore. The five drones had readjusted their positions and were rushing towards her at a high speed like a flock of crows, firing bullets continuously from their guns.

The five mechanical dogs also took up their positions again, ready to launch rocket shells for a blanket bombing.

"do not fight!"

The sword girl was so frightened that she rolled off the stage and raised her hands to surrender.

Seeing that she surrendered, Sheng Yixia naturally would not pursue her again.

With a thought, the drone formation flew back and circled around Sheng Yixia to protect her, while the robot dog went back into the metal box, curled up, and retracted the quad-rocket launcher.

Seeing that it was safe, Daomei climbed back onto the stage. The referee who had not been seen just now also appeared on the stage again and announced the result of the match: "Mechanic Instructor wins this match."

Naturally, there was a lot of discussion among the audience about the result of the game.

Some people think that such a large-scale use of firearms goes against the spirit of competition among extraordinary people. Others say that if it is a street fight, Irelia can more easily sneak attack the mechanical mentor and knock him out before he can react.

Moreover, the arena is too open and there is no cover, which is not conducive to fighting against Irelia.

However, some knowledgeable people immediately refuted this statement. If the battle was really in a complex environment, with the long-range reconnaissance capability of the drone, Irelia might not even see the Mechanical Mentor and would be bombed to death by firepower coverage.

Those with different views engaged in friendly discussions with each other and greeted their families.

But this does not prevent many people with extraordinary psychic powers from being very interested in the drone and mechanical dog combat system. At least this thing is much better than using a shuttle or something, and as long as their mental strength can withstand it, they can completely expand the cluster of drones and mechanical dogs.

If there is a huge army consisting of hundreds of drones and mechanical dogs, wouldn’t it be like killing anyone who stands in their way? Maybe they can even defeat the strong with the weak and kill a few A-level monsters, and become rich overnight!
Moreover, once a tough enemy is located, it is possible to directly lock onto the opponent and call for long-range fire support, air support from the special forces, and even one day call for orbital strikes!
What is a wizard? This is the real noble wizard!
As for other extraordinary people, haha, let them form a wizard guard team, and they will only be responsible for close protection!
In short, Sheng Yixia, through this battle with Daomei, intuitively demonstrated the new combat system of those with extraordinary psychic powers.

In addition, the future development direction of this system is also very clear, such as using mental power to control cars, tanks, and even some mechanical camels carrying equipment and personnel.

At the same time, the exchange list within the National Non-Government Affairs Bureau.

The first batch of small-scale mass-produced extraordinary drone systems were quickly sold out, and pre-orders continued to accumulate.

This made Sheng Yixia sigh that the extraordinary people were really good at hoarding points. After all, the basic version of the drone system, which only included a backpack and four drones, cost one bronze medal and 150 points.

Adding an extra drone will earn you 20 more points, and adding a mechanical dog will earn you 30 more points!

This made Sheng Yixia sigh with emotion. The powerful scientific research extraordinary people earned points very quickly. The magician and the illusionist worked very hard to earn just a few points, but as soon as the mechanical instructor's drone system went on sale, the total points earned by the team exceeded 20,000!

The only constraint is that this set of equipment is still extraordinary equipment after all, and some core equipment still requires some extraordinary materials, and more extraordinary crystals must be purchased with the recovered points.

This also means that large-scale mass production is not possible for the time being.

But fortunately, the development prospects are bright, and there is still a lot of room for upgrades in the future. Especially when used on a large scale, there will still be many feedbacks and bugs that need to be corrected and upgraded. It is the right choice not to mass-produce now.

Under the ring.

After a series of setbacks, Daomei no longer had the high spirits she had at the beginning. She walked to Sheng Yixia with a somewhat dusty face and said dejectedly, "Can you let me take a sinecure in the National Non-Government Affairs Bureau? At least I can have a regular position so that I can explain to my family."

"No problem, you can work at the Xiadong Super Research Institute, a legitimate official scientific research unit." Sheng Yixia said cheerfully, "I think you have good abilities, and you can be a tester for the new equipment at the Super Research Institute in your spare time."

Daomei’s face turned even darker, and she looked at Sheng Yixia dimly.

You drag me into this and ask me to do this?

She was so sad that she couldn't help but secretly despise herself. Sima Jiajia, oh Sima Jiajia, you were attracted by beauty and were bewitched by handsome guys. Now, you have lost not only the wife but also the army.

"Okay, stop being so sullen." Sheng Yixia said soothingly, "We at Tianqiao are a serious supernatural organization. We can ask the magician to take us to the base for team building. We can earn more points and merits, and then we will have everything, right?"

Upon hearing this, Daomei immediately became spirited again. The magician is now well-known in the entire Xiadong area. His reputation is even greater than that of the extraordinary captains from various provinces.

The morale of the Fire Master, Kinokoto and others was boosted upon hearing this, and they began to feel a sense of belonging to the organization.

However, after that, Sheng Yixia was no longer allowed to enter the ring in the seventh group of the qualifiers. The main reason was that no one in this group was willing to be beaten by him again. He defeated the seeded player of the seventh group, Irelia, with only five drones and five mechanical dogs.

If all the remaining equipment is activated, who can beat him?

Even the Fire Mage, who was always conceited and thought he was no weaker than the Sword Girl, felt that he had no chance of winning.

Therefore, Sheng Yixia had already secured the first place in Group 7 with just two games, which also led to the subsequent games losing suspense and highlights, and ending hastily.

In the other groups, the competition for the first place was quite fierce, and many newcomers with good potential such as Daomei and Fire Mage emerged. Although these people may not necessarily get the first place in the group, Sheng Yixia thought that as long as they had enough resources, they would be very easy to be promoted to B-level potential stocks, and even if they were A-level in the future, it would definitely not stop them.

The time of transcendent awakening is still too short, and the current strength does not represent their ultimate potential.

Of course, from another perspective, being able to awaken the extraordinary at this stage itself represents their potential. After all, the concentration of extraordinary matter on Earth is not high today.

It is worth mentioning that.

The little Taoist boy from the second group and Hino Rei from the fifth group both successfully won the first place in their respective groups, while Pluto Nana was eliminated due to her lack of skills. She only had a few drones and had not exchanged for a mechanical dog. Moreover, she was not as skilled in controlling them as Sheng Yixia.

In addition, the C-level peak tank that Sheng Yixia was more familiar with was defeated and abused by a young Taoist priest from his cousin province. The Taoist priest actually knew the Nine Yin Corpse Refining Technique and turned the corpse of a B-level star realm humanoid monster into a corpse puppet.

And Huanhu seemed to be unlucky as well. Although his illusion technique became more and more proficient, he was eliminated in the ninth group by a civilian supernatural being from Laoban Province. It just so happened that that civilian supernatural being was an unknown female white-collar worker who had never been famous before.

In addition, Shao Jingqiu and Qin Weiwei also tried to participate in the competition. Although they both have good potential, they awakened too late after all. It is good enough that they can barely participate now. They only squeezed into the top ten of each group, which is a bit far from the first place.

It can only be said that there are too many extraordinary people in the entire Xiadong area, and there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers among them.

soon.

Sheng Yixia and other "elites" who ranked first in the ten groups went together to the big stage in the center to receive their awards. Zhou Fei, who had been promoted to deputy director, personally presented the awards to everyone.

The prizes were very simple yet practical, with each person receiving three B-grade evolution potions.

The others who achieved good rankings also received tiered rewards. Even those who did not make it into the top ten in the group were given 50 points each as a minimum score.

If C-level contestants alone receive such rewards, then the rewards for B-level contestants will be even greater.

This time, the Xiadong Branch absolutely went all out and gave away a considerable portion of the resources obtained from the three medium-sized rift battlefields within its jurisdiction as rewards. The purpose was obviously to accelerate the growth of young extraordinary people so that they could gain a snowball-like advantage in the next battle with the star realm.

Today's game ends here.

Everyone didn't socialize in the evening, but instead prepared for the more difficult competition the next day.

The next day.

The real meat dishes began to be served.

There are now a total of twenty-two young B-level extraordinary people in the jurisdiction of the Xiadong Branch, many of whom have been promoted recently. It is a bit regrettable that H City, because it has the smallest number of extraordinary people, does not have a new B-level one yet.

Instead, the original four young B-level people were reduced to three because Zhou Fei was promoted to A-level.

These twenty-two young extraordinary people will form a new team of thirty-two participants with the ten extraordinary people who emerged from the C-level team. They will be randomly matched in the first round and will compete in pairs to select the top sixteen.

But only Sheng Yixia knew that among these thirty-two people, there were three of them...

In order to avoid a situation where he would defeat himself, he could only use his mental power to predict the result first, and then made some domineering remarks to interfere with the result of the draw.

Perhaps it was because the magnitude of this interference in the future was relatively small. After the interference was completed, he did not even feel any backlash.

soon.

The results of the “random” draw are announced.

As expected, Sheng Yixia's three contestants were staggered.

The Phantom Sound Master was the third to appear, and his opponent was the deputy captain of the official super team from Kaogong Province - [Altruism].

The Magician was the ninth to appear, and his opponent was a new B-level transcendent from the Global Province, [Invincible Iron Bull].

Sheng Yixia was ranked 14th, and her opponent was... um, the female white-collar worker from the boss province who killed Huanhu - [Winning Life Without Any Effort], uh... how did the Extraordinary Home APP approve this ID?
Sheng Yixia once again set her sights on her opponent, a plain-looking woman who looked like an office lady from her attire. She had a workaholic vibe and didn't look like a master at all.

And Lie Down and Win in Life also looked at Sheng Yixia and gave a formulaic smile.

Huh?
Suddenly.

Sheng Yixia felt an inexplicable sense of alarm in his heart. The spiritual perception brought by his divine consciousness made his scalp tingle slightly, as if he was being targeted by some powerful opponent.

He hasn't had this feeling for a long time.

After all, with his current true strength, even if he encounters an A-level opponent, he can still run away if he can't beat him, so he won't feel too dangerous.

But what does it mean for this female white-collar worker to win in life without doing anything?
Sheng Yixia remained calm and prepared to secretly tell his fortune.

But at this moment.

A woman's voice sounded behind him: "Hey, Mechanical Instructor, I heard that you and the Magician are from the same organization? Where is he? Why didn't he come to the lottery ceremony?"

Sheng Yixia looked back.

But what I saw was a beautiful woman with a hot body wearing a motorcycle suit.

I still know him.

"Oh, you are the lady [Motorcycle Riding and Gun Shooting] from the boss's province, right?" Sheng Yixia greeted politely, "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you, I can't control the whereabouts of the magician boss, but I believe he will definitely come over when the war starts."

"Hmph, we didn't even get matched in the first round. I hope he's as good as the rumors say and doesn't lose in the first round. I'm still waiting to avenge him for stealing my parrot." The gun lady said with a snort and left.

Sheng Yixia had just sent her away and was about to make some calculations in secret.

Another pretty girl came over and said, "Sheng Yixia, where's my boyfriend? Why didn't he come to draw lots?"

My goodness! Why is it so difficult to tell a fortune?
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the person who came, then raised his eyebrows and a string of question marks appeared above his head: "???"

He recognized her as the spiritual transcendent whom he met in the J City dungeon - Comrade Wang Huijuan, a graduate student from the same class as him and roommate of his old classmate Yu Jiaqian at Jinling University.

"Who is your boyfriend?" Sheng Yixia couldn't help but ask.

"It could be a sound illusionist or a magician." Wang Huijuan answered truthfully.

Good man, you are quite fickle. Why don’t you take them all?
