Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 490 Hmm? I smell the scent of the theory of lifespan!

The third day of the main competition, at 10:00 AM.

Amid cheers from the audience, Team O'Leary and Team Scarlet Devil stepped into the ring simultaneously.

The schedule for the quarterfinals is also displayed on the big screen.

Instead of selecting new opponents, the opponents were directly assigned according to the default A/B group order in the round of 16.

[Match 1 - O'Leary vs. Red Devil]

[Match 2 - Resilient! Invincible! Strongest! Team VS Fatal Fury Team]

[Match 3 - Neon Team VS Dragon Tiger Team]

[Match 4 - Team 996 vs. Team Rage]

According to the schedule, all the quarter-final matches will be played today.

Because Cheng Tian himself had to participate in the competition, the commentary work had to return to the sunglasses-wearing, mustachioed man.

Cheng is undoubtedly the most talked-about figure in this competition, with a very strong presence. Not only have the audience paid considerable attention to him, but the players and gamers have also been paying close attention.

They all wanted to see what other abilities Cheng Tian could reveal.

Then they will be surprised to find that Cheng Tian's abilities are decreasing with each fight.

"So, have both sides decided on their vanguard?"

"still me."

Because of the challenge, Cheng, who had to go first, raised his hand to signal.

On the other side, Remilia, the Scarlet Devil Mansion's mistress, who was small in stature but held a pink parasol at the very front of the group, was scanning Cheng Tian from top to bottom with a scrutinizing gaze.

Although the phrase "the maid-head father's counterpart" came from Remilia's mouth, re-examining it still gave her a very strange feeling.

Even though Cheng Tian and Sakuya don't look alike at all, they still give people a strong feeling that "they must be related?"

As the saying goes, love me, love my dog. The vampire young lady's trust in the head maid inevitably extended to Cheng Tian, ​​so her first impression of Cheng Tian was actually not bad... However, after getting closer, Cheng Tian exuded an aura of "sun" that she hated the most, which was impossible to ignore.

The irreconcilable conflict between vampires and the sun is ingrained in their racial traits; becoming a daywalker is not something every vampire can achieve.

The aura of the sun reminded her of the terrifying sunlight that the boy had released before!

Remilia, who was exposed to the terrifying sunlight, immediately covered her head and crouched down in defense, her dignity completely shattered.

The fact that the young lady's mouth turned into an inverted U-shape when this memory resurfaced clearly indicated that she was not in a good mood at the moment.

"Am I still the vanguard?"

Hong Meiling, who was completely oblivious to her young mistress's feelings, came over and asked in a very casual manner.

But the next second, the head maid, who was standing behind Remilia on the other side, took a step forward.

"Only users who can stop time can deal with other users who can stop time."

Sakuya Izayoi stared sharply into Cheng Tian's eyes.

"Huh? Him too?!"

Clearly, the master and servant had not informed their household about Cheng Tian's situation beforehand, which led to Hong Meiling instinctively taking a step back when she heard the term "time-stop user".

The accumulated pressure from the head maid (who withheld her salary) made Hong Meiling subconsciously place Cheng Tian in the same position, her eyes filled with apprehension. This was the effect of first impressions, even though Cheng Tian's abilities were actually quite different from the head maid's.

"The vanguards for both sides have been confirmed."

"So, in this quarterfinals, the first match of the quarterfinals will be between Orange and Izayoi Sakuya! The rules remain the same!"

"Now, please have the other contestants leave the stage."

He didn't even notice the three hands that had been pressing on his back leaving, as Cheng Tian was completely focused on watching Izayoi Sakuya.

Because this will probably be his toughest opponent yet.

An opponent who not only controls time stopping but can theoretically accelerate time—if Cheng Tian didn't also have a Stand that could somewhat erase the gap between them, he wouldn't know how he could have won.

However, as Cheng Tian intently gazed at the other person's youthful appearance, which showed no signs of aging whatsoever, as if frozen in the form of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old, a chilling thought suddenly popped into his mind.

"I have a question, and I don't know if it would be convenient for you to answer it."

"……go ahead."

Izayoi's eyes flickered slightly, but her expression remained aloof, unchanged from before. However, she would soon pay the price for underestimating Cheng Tian, ​​this human-shaped weapon.

"If I remember correctly, when you were working at the Scarlet Devil Mansion, you basically used time manipulation to assist you the whole time, and you took on almost all the work by yourself. Those useless little fairies couldn't help at all, right?"

"Indeed, the fact that they can eat and sleep on their own is already a huge help."

If it weren't for the sake of MuQ, and the fact that the huge Scarlet Devil Mansion really needed some living creatures, those useless little fairies in the Scarlet Devil Mansion would have been kicked out long ago.

"What is a moment for others is an unknown amount of time for you, yet your physical age has not increased at all. Can I assume that you, who have mastered time, have an actual lifespan that is almost infinite?"

Upon hearing Cheng Tian's words, the head maid's eyes flickered noticeably, but she did not respond.

But this reaction has essentially confirmed Cheng Tian's conjecture.

"Lady Remilia is a little over five hundred years old, but vampires are only long-lived beings, not immortal beings, which means..."

Cheng Tian didn't need to say anything more, because the aloof head maid was already clutching her head, her pupils dilating in shock.

In fantasy worlds, we often discuss the lifespan theory that arises from the union of humans and long-lived races like elves. A human who is at most a hundred years old is merely an insignificant link in the long life of an elf who is a thousand years old. For an elf, it is just an ordinary journey, but for a human, it may be half a lifetime or even a lifetime.

This is what is known as the theory of lifespan.

However, for vampires, who are human but control the passage of time and have long lifespans but are not immortal, the focus of the discussion on lifespan is completely reversed.

In other words, one day in the future, Lady Remilia, the mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, will die before her most trusted head maid!
Cheng Tian, ​​whose initial intention was simply curiosity, cruelly and directly exposed this reverse theory of lifespan.

"Young Miss! Ahh ...

Sakuya Izayoi's morale plummeted!

At the same time, the man with the mustache also made an "inappropriate" announcement.

"Battle One! Begin!"

The head maid, her anger amplified by the severe blow to her spirit, launched the first attack. She ran her hand under her skirt, and in the next second, a series of exquisitely crafted silver throwing knives shot towards Cheng Tianfei.

However, just when everyone thought Cheng Tian would summon the world to fight with Mu Da Mu Da, they saw Cheng Tian pause, and after his hands reached to his waist, two large, exquisitely crafted orange-gold throwing knives appeared—

DIO template flying knife barrage!

The series of orange-gold throwing knives that Cheng Tian seemingly casually tossed out with great force collided with the silver throwing knives that were also cutting through the air at high speed from the opposite side in mid-air!
