Chapter 650: The International Fighting Game Exchange Tournament Begins!
"The 'Golden Lion Cub'? Oh, I see. So that guy wearing the funny lion costume on the other side is that player."

To facilitate communication between players, the official team of "Galaxy Heroes" has not only invited professional game commentators to introduce the characters, but also launched the "Tower of Babel" system with translation capabilities.

Thanks to this translation system, the members of the StarRain team were able to understand what the surrounding audience and the host were saying.

"Lucas, do you know that golden lion they're talking about?"

In response to Sylvia's question, Lucas from the StarRain team nodded and said, "I guess so, because I sometimes play shooting games, and there was a game called GGO that was quite popular, so I gave it a try."

The so-called "Golden Lion Cub" they were talking about was the strongest player in GGO.

Speaking of his experiences, they're somewhat similar to yours, Sylvia..."

After listening to her teammate Lucas recount Seiya's exploits, Sylvia looked at Seiya with obvious interest.

She is the "undefeated" fighting game in the United States, while Seiya is the "legend" in shooting games.

Although the games are different, Lucas also said that "Golden Lion Cub" performed more like a player who is good at fighting games in GGO.

The fact that a player skilled in fighting games can become a legend in shooting games is enough to demonstrate that the opponent's strength and skill level are comparable.

Sylvia's favorite thing is to spar with such masters!
Seeing that the surrounding audience gradually stopped rioting, Shinohara Hachi, the beautiful host, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Panshirgon and Sun Le from the "Dynamite Squad" were stunned for a moment before nudging Seiya on the shoulder and saying, "Seiya, I didn't expect your reputation to be just as good as Skipjack tuna's."

"Alright everyone, the 'Galaxy Heroes' fighting exchange tournament is now officially starting."

The competition adopts a 4V4 arena system. Each player will play three matches, and the player with the most wins will be the winner.

Each match lasts for ten minutes. If the two players are still tied when the time is up, the player with more health points wins.

The winning team can continue to defend their position until one side has no more players available to play, at which point they will win.

Now, please welcome our first players from both sides to the stage. They are Natsume Megumi from the "Dynamite Squad" and Lucas from the StarRain team.

In the first match of the exchange competition, Seiya originally wanted to go first because he had just realized that Suguha and Asuna were also in the audience.

When Suguha saw him dressed as a lion mascot, she took out her phone and started taking pictures.

To be honest, it was a little embarrassing to participate in a game competition dressed as a mascot, but since no one could see his face, he simply decided to just laze around with Sun and the others.

But Suguha is different from Asuna and the others. Their presence here means their identities have been exposed.

Even in front of acquaintances, Seiya couldn't quite contain himself with his comical appearance in the mascot costume.

And it's one thing if it's Suguha and Asuna, but if Kirito finds out, wouldn't I be ridiculed for the rest of my life?

So, to avoid giving Suguha and the others any more embarrassing material to use as material for his past, Seiya volunteered to be the first to go into battle. Anyway, once he sat in the game pod, everyone's attention would be on the game screen.

However, Seiya's request to volunteer for the battle was rejected by Panhilgon and the others. Their reasons were quite compelling; Natsume Megumi stated that Seiya was their secret weapon.

There were no secret weapons; they were used right from the start of the first match.

Panxiergong and Sun Le's thoughts were even simpler. They didn't know how strong the so-called StarRain team was, or how strong Sylvia, the strongest genius player in the United States, was, but they were very familiar with Seiya's abnormal abilities.

This is a ring battle. What if Seiya goes first and ends up single-handedly crushing the entire opposing team?
A match lasts ten minutes, and each person plays three matches. Even if the first person to go on the field can beat the opponent, it will still take two hours.

Playing a fighting game for two hours straight would inevitably exhaust a normal person's mental energy, let alone when the opponents were all top-level professional players.

However! Panshirgon and Sun Le knew very well that this situation only applied to ordinary people, and was not applicable to monsters like Seiya at all.

Maintaining extremely high concentration and engaging in high-intensity battles for more than two hours is not a problem for Seiya at all.

If Seiya were to go first and completely dominate StarRain, what would be the point of the rest of them playing?

So, at the unanimous request of the group, Seiya was scheduled to appear last.

The first player to go on stage, Natsume Megumi, chose her most proficient game character, "Ghost Tree Woman."

Her opponent, Lucas, chose the role of "Dr. Sandoff".

In the game "Heroes of the Galaxy", "Ghost Tree Woman" and "Dr. Sandon" were originally sworn enemies.

At the start of the game, the villainous "Ghost Tree Woman" immediately arrives at the hospital in the wedding city and begins to wreak havoc.

Villainous game characters must accumulate energy bars quickly by constantly committing evil deeds.

Natsume Megumi herself was well aware that, apart from Sylvia, the other members of the StarRain team were also top-tier professional players.

However, in terms of skill level, she might not be a match for Lucas, so before the match began, she humbly sought the opinions of Seiya and the others.

When Lucas's chosen game character, "Dr. Sandford," arrived at the hospital, Natsume Megumi was already manipulating her vine arms to lift up the babies in the hospital one by one and drop them from the sky.

This malicious manipulation caused her villainous energy bar to surge at a visible rate.

The audience gasped in amazement as they watched the babies fall from the sky in the game.

"She hasn't completely let go of her burdens yet, and her movements are clearly hesitant. I can only give her a score of 60."

As soon as Sun finished speaking, Pan Xiergong retorted, "After all, it's a baby being taken hostage. It's normal for normal people to find it hard to accept. Xiao Hui has done a great job. I give her 75 points."

Seiya was speechless as he listened to the two people beside him giving scores to Natsume Megumi's gameplay as if no one else was around.

Is this the main point of focus? And how could someone as extremely wicked as Panhirgun ever think things are going too far?
(Sigh, I'm having some writer's block. Actually, this part of the story is already part of the manga's plot, and I hesitated about whether to write it, worried that many people wouldn't know the plot and would be confused (ToT)/~~~)
