Wow! The explosion rate is really high

"We have 31 opponents in total, and the process will last for five rounds until the top three are finally decided."

"The number of qualifiers for each star region is uncertain at present. The top three have a chance, but only the first place can really ensure that they will go to the universe league to participate."

"The competition uses a lottery to determine the opponents and venues. Before the actual competition, no one knows their opponents and the venue environment."

"Primitive jungle, alpine snow, ocean islands, thunderstorm areas, magnetic field off-site... are all possible. Two teams that draw the same number are opponents, and the number itself also represents the venue for the competition."

"This In this competition, we need to pay attention to three main opponents... They are: Thunder Dragon Empire, Blood Roar Empire and Thousand Stars Merchant Alliance. "

"Among them, the Thousand Stars Merchant Alliance needs to pay the most attention. Two of the four legendary pilots who are also qualified to participate in the competition with me are in their hands. The other Thunder Dragon and Blood Roar Empire also have one legendary pilot each. Of course, in addition to this, many of their other participating pilots are not far from the level of legendary pilots. It is still unknown whether they will break through in battle or break through to the level of legendary pilots during this period of time that we are not aware of. "

In the war preparation room, Catherine told every participating team member about the information in her hand.

Of course, most of the information is known to the locals, and the reason why it is explained in such detail is mainly for Bai E to hear, "But these are all the data on the surface. Whether they have hidden any cards that we don’t know is what we can’t know at present. "

The Bauhinia has been suppressed in this star region, and intelligence work is even more difficult.

The inside of the family is like a sieve, but he knows very little about the information of other powerful countries around him.

Fortunately, God blesses the Bauhinia. From the unexplored deep space of the universe, an extraordinary leader of primitive civilization was sent to join their Bauhinia team, which gave them the real possibility of winning the first place in the competition.

…

As the provocative Golden Eagle pilot said, the Bauhinia Republic was the last team to report.

As the last time passed, when the scheduled time came, the leaders of all teams drew their respective numbers under the live camera.

"No. 13."

This is the number Catherine drew.

Five singles, one point per game.

One doubles, two points per game.

One three-person game, two points per game.

One five-person team game, four points per game.

This is the competition format of the Star Alliance Competition, and the competition within the star zone also follows this system.

Pilots in multiplayer competitions can play repeatedly. Each player can play up to twice in a game, and there is only a maximum of one hour of rest time between each game.

The list of players for each small game needs to be submitted to the official organizer in advance before the actual start, and it cannot be changed.

Therefore, no player will know who his opponent is until he actually goes on stage.

This method of not leaving too much tactical space is to test the versatility of players from each participating country.

Players who are better at special attacks can only play in team competitions.

"I don't know who our opponent is..." Sitting in the spaceship landing on the planet, Catherine frowned and worried in the swaying cabin.

Catherine's worry obviously has another source. Victor, who was sitting next to her, asked curiously, "Sister, is there any bad news?"

Catherine shook her head, "I don't know if it's bad news... It's just a little strange."

Just before the draw, among the opponents she mentioned who needed to be paid attention to, except for the leader of the Thousand Stars Merchant Alliance who was the familiar old opponent, the leaders of the other two empires were not the two legendary pilots in memory. Instead, there were two completely unfamiliar faces.

Normally, the leader of a team is the strongest pilot in the team.

But now this change has occurred... there are only two possibilities.

Either the two legendary pilots are no longer in the participating teams of the two empires, or... the two new unfamiliar faces are stronger than the two old legendary pilots.

Just like the new lion king drove away the old lion king, the new pilot replaced the old legendary pilot and became the new face of a team.

No matter which possibility, it means that this game may not be as sure as they imagined.

It's just that such a big change, they didn't hear any news at all.

It can only be said that their news channels of Bauhinia are still too closed...

"It doesn't matter, I will act as a pioneer and strive to win a first victory for us in each game." Victor straightened his chest.

According to the current competition system, as long as you can get seven points out of a total of thirteen points, you will win.

But the same player can only play twice in a game.

If they want to ensure that their team advances all the way, Catherine and Brother Bai, the two trump cards, must appear in situations where they can get the most points.

Either win two team games and get six points, or win one team game or two individual games and get six points.

Under this premise, when meeting those three strong opponents, someone in their Bauhinia team must be able to score at least one point in the singles match to ensure that the entire team is qualified to advance.

Perhaps the elite pilots in the military region are equally good, but Victor still puts this responsibility more on his own shoulders.

Catherine's eyes were bright and she responded softly, "I hope so..."

…

As the entire airborne cabin landed smoothly with a tremor, a slight commotion began in the cabin after receiving the organizer's voice notification.

The air on this planet is full of highly toxic gases that are harmful to the human body. Of course, the physical fitness of most powerful pilots is not that bad, but at this peak competitive moment, no one expects to suffer because of this. Interference from external factors leads to abnormal performance.

Victor, who put on a protective suit with the help of his teammates, smiled and waved goodbye to the others staying in the cabin, "Everyone, in the first game, let me bring you the first victory. …”

As Victor stepped out of the cabin, a row of mechas that Bauhinia had handed over in advance were quietly waiting for his selection on the tarmac.

The colorful mechas have extremely exaggerated weapon configurations and color coatings.

Each of these mechas is a powerful war weapon that has been debugged and polished by countless Bauhinia engineers countless days and nights.

Especially after generations of development and innovation, each mecha has its own unique characteristics and absolutely outstanding performance.

From the moment Victor stepped out of the cabin, the game was officially broadcast live throughout the entire star region.

Everyone outside the arena is free to choose their favorite venue to watch. Even before the players in the arena know who their opponent is, they have already locked in the origin of the enemy team that is the opponent of their own country's team. .

At this moment, many civilians throughout Bauhinia who were paying close attention to this event were either at work or lying on their beds at home, all watching the live broadcast in front of them with solemn faces.

From the moment they knew who their opponent was, some unfortunate complaints arose in the hearts of many people of the Bauhinia Republic.

"What a pity...our first opponent is the Thunder Dragon Empire."

"Yeah, why did we happen to meet the three top seeded players?"

"A shady secret! It must be a shady secret! The Summit League as the organizer was founded by these three countries, and this kind of competition must be in their hands!"

"Thinking too much! Even the Star Alliance has sent people to supervise this kind of competition. How can there be room for black box operation? It's just bad luck..."

"Hey... I originally felt that our candidates for this year's competition were quite strong. If we hadn't met the three major seed players, we should have easily entered the top four."

As a country where people face discrimination and suppression wherever they go, being in the top four is already an incredible achievement.

If their contestants can achieve such results, their compatriots will not always be looked at with strange eyes when they step out of their homes, right?

But unfortunately, this desire seems to be shattered just as it arises.

After all, that was the Thunder Dragon Empire!

"I have some confidence in our players... After all, our legendary pilot, Her Majesty Catherine, is personally leading the team this time. Maybe we can give everyone a surprise."

"That's right! Their Thunder Dragon Empire only has one legendary pilot, and we are also a legendary pilot. Is it possible that our Lady Catherine is afraid of them?"

"But the competition is not just a duel at the level of legendary pilots..."

Legendary pilots rely more on personal qualifications. On the contrary, it is those second-level pilots who show the true heritage of a country.

Being able to steadily train front-line pilots with rich practical experience and strong capabilities is their unique advantage as a large country.

Bauhinia, how can it have such a heritage?

"Hey! Stop talking nonsense and watch the game!"

Bai E and others were in the airborne cabin, firmly locking the perspective of their own players, and simultaneously live broadcasting the scenes of their teammates after the competition.

Unlike outside audiences who can freely choose to switch screens at will, players competing on the field can only see a viewing angle with their teammates as the main focus.

How much experience and lessons can be learned about the opponent is what each team of contestants needs to consider.

Therefore, some countries' participating teams will even be equipped with substitutes who are not dedicated to combat but are better at analysis as a functional supplement to the participating teams.

Seeing Victor walking towards the mechas wearing a slightly bulky protective suit, the other members of the team were obviously a little excited.

"I wonder what type of mecha Xiao Zhan Kuang will choose..."

"His personality is actually more suitable for an assault type of 'soldier'."

"But wouldn't it be too risky to choose the 'vanguard'? Once the opponent fails to win during the outbreak, it is very likely that the opponent will kill him."

"I think 'all-around' is more mediocre, and has the power to fight against any opponent."

Mechas in the universe have developed for so many generations, and many branches with distinct tendencies have long been developed based on different usage scenarios.

For example, the "soldier" type mecha can explode at extreme speed in a short period of time and get close to the opponent with a rapid burst.

But the prerequisite to support the explosion is a certain level of fuselage protection sacrificed for speed and the limitations of loaded weapons.

Another example is the "all-round" type, which has excellent performance in all aspects.

But having everything means having nothing. It is not as good as the "Pioneer" in speed and burst, not as good as the "Sentinel" in long-range support, and even worse than the "Foothill" in defense advancement.

The Sentinel has fierce firepower but lacks close combat ability, and the Foothill has strong defense but poor mobility.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

In order to improve the ability in one aspect, it is inevitable to make compromises in another aspect.

Mechas of different tendencies have advantages and disadvantages when facing other types of mechas.

Not to mention that even if it is the same type of "Pioneer" type mecha, the models developed by each country are different.

Before the personal ability gap between the pilots is widened to a certain extent, the performance and characteristics of the mecha itself are the key factors that determine the final victory or defeat of the two mobile suits.

Therefore, it is necessary to be cautious when choosing to go into battle at the beginning.

"Moderation is not his character. A mecha that suits the pilot style is the best choice in most cases."

"The terrain of our competition is a primitive dense forest. In this case, the vanguard has more advantages. Let's go with the vanguard."

The talking team members glanced at the silent leader Catherine from time to time.

It stands to reason that the leader would give key opinions on this kind of choice before the battle.

But for some reason, Catherine did not give any instructions in this regard.

Catherine looked at the live broadcast screen in the cabin, but just asked Bai E with interest: "What type of mecha do you think he will choose?"

"All-round..."

Although he is not completely familiar with the Bauhinia mecha, after roughly contacting several types of mecha, Bai E still thinks that this moderate mecha will be the boy's final choice.

Because...that is also his favorite type.

The mecha on the primitive star does not have so many subdivisions.

"All-round" is a balanced type that is closest to his habit when driving.

"It seems that you know Victor better." Catherine chuckled, "This little guy... looks crazier than anyone else, but in fact, he is the most responsible."

As the first game of the vanguard, he will definitely respond with all his strength.

Not only for the restraint relationship with the opponent's armor, but also for... the environment.

Facing a completely unfamiliar alien environment, the significance of the vanguard is not only the first victory, but also for laying the foundation! (End of this chapter)
