Chapter 378: A Short Rest in the Rest Area

"Your performance is somewhat exaggerated."

She picked up a spoon, scooped up the red sweet sausage and white rice, blew on it 'huhu' a couple of times, and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Hahu... Of course, hahu... it could also be that it was bought recently. However, with Blue Star lacking the young and middle-aged vigorous factions, whether the remaining old and young can support so many industries remains to be seen."

Because it was too hot, that spoonful of food swirled around in Lan Qingyou's mouth several times before she finally swallowed it.

"..."

Seeing Lan Qingyou's relaxed demeanor, everyone felt that their somewhat tense appearances just now seemed very ridiculous.

Especially Xin Tianle.

To be honest, now that he had become an Evolver and a superior being, logically speaking, he could walk sideways.

In reality, he did just that, being extremely arrogant and conceited.

It wasn't fear, nor was it dread.

It was just... what was that term from the Dragon Country again? Feeling unworthy of her company? Feeling inferior?

Anyway, that was the gist of it.

Mainly it was because the impression this Witch Lan Qingyou gave him was too deep, making Lan Qingyou have a filter-like high-class feel to her.

And while the eight people were resting in the Rest Area, the people in the outside world watched their every move and even their conversations clearly through the Sky Screen.

Perhaps to make the overall picture of the Rest Area look more advanced and break away from the previous Makeshift Operation feeling.

So the World Will even arranged multi-camera, multi-angle shooting techniques throughout the Rest Area.

This allowed the melon-eating crowds outside to see the current status of the eight contestants more clearly and intuitively.

"Tsk tsk, this World Will is really thoughtful, to actually come up with this kind of Rest Area."

Watching the footage on the Sky Screen, discussions were heated on the world channel.

"Holy shit! Look at what that is! Golden caviar!"

"My god, I've only seen it in videos before, and now I can still fucking only see it in a video. I feel like my transmigration is a bit redundant?"

"Hehe, I used to eat it often before. The taste is just like that, quite ordinary."

"Then what about now, young master?"

"Now? Say no more, I still have to go move bricks."

"You actually have to move bricks today too? We all got a day off here specifically to watch the competition."

"Can't compare, can't compare, time is tight and tasks are heavy here."

"So nice, so many former foods, beverages, and snacks. I haven't had spicy gluten for so long, I almost forgot its taste."

"Still thinking about eating. Compared to these, the battles are the main point, right? Gotta battle, gotta feel the thrill."

"The betting is open, the betting is open! Mall channel 553, new odds, place your bets!"

Some people even directly opened betting pools.

"I say, don't you guys feel they are being treated too well? Free food and drinks, just look at how that Witch is eating."

"Envious? Jealous? Then you go up!"

"If I were a fucking Evolver, I would have gone up ages ago. Would it be your turn to spout nonsense to me here?"

"Saying I'm not envious is a lie, but compared to this, I care more about who will win the upcoming battles."

"I think it might be a Witch, after all, three out of the eight present are Witches."

"Makes sense, I also think it's a Witch, but the question is, which Witch?"

"Is there even a need to say? It must be that Tower Witch guy. The founder of the entire Witch Race, even this trend of Evolvers was started by her."

"I don't think so."

"Indeed, after all, compared to the Tower Witch, I favor the Workshop Witch more."

"Why?"

"Mainly because she's too mysterious. Looking at her battles now, although she won them all, it feels like we haven't seen anything."

"True, I didn't even see how she attacked before her enemies fell."

"Then according to what you guys are saying, Ursula is the favorite to win the championship, alright? All her enemies either commit suicide or abstain, isn't this bizarre enough."

"Speaking of bizarre, I lean more towards Holger."

"Void Race, huh? First time hearing about it."

"Hehe, perhaps it's like that where you are, but in our Twilight Canyon, this is a very formidable race."

"What unheard-of Void Race. I instead feel it's very likely Xin Tianle, after all, it's the Demon Race, it sounds very formidable."

"Just forget about that dog Xin Tianle. It would be best if he gets directly killed by Li Huai as soon as he takes the stage. No, getting dismembered would be best."

"Brother, there's a story in your tone, why don't you tell us to amuse everyone?"

"Nothing much, just that when the first Mana Tide came, he scammed over a thousand people's supplies in our district and ran away, resulting in only a few of those thousand-plus people surviving."

"Hiss~!! Such a scumbag?"

"Yes, ranked alongside the Tower Witch as one of the Five Great Scumbags of our District 666."

"Oh! Although it's regrettable that such a thing happened, doesn't this also exactly show that his Demon Race evolution direction is well-deserved."

"..."

In reality, the discussions on the world channel hadn't stopped since the preliminaries began.

It was just that compared to how conspicuous the current eight people were, previously everyone was discussing their own things.

It was different now.

With eight people present, everyone only needed to focus their attention on these eight people.

Even to the point where because some people were simply too famous, the level of attention was extremely high.

Even mall channel 553 only symbolically gave odds of 1 to 0.03.

Which meant that if you bet on Lan Qingyou, you'd even have to pay out of your own pocket.

Of course, one could also put it nicely, for example, 'generating electricity for love' or 'faith is priceless' and the like.

And compared to the other people watching the fun.

Right now, perhaps the most fortunate person was probably Diana, sitting in her office holding a small notebook and watching the live broadcast.

Before, when selecting people, she actually also had an impulse of 'wanting to join in the fun and see'.

But fortunately, she suppressed that damn curiosity and impulse of hers.

Otherwise, if she wanted to come out after going in, she would probably only be able to come back after fighting a battle.

Of course, the main reason was that although she was a civilian staff member, she also understood a little magic. This fight would probably require many rounds.

Thinking of wasting so much time made Diana feel a bit chilled.

Sure enough, it was best to leave battle matters to guys who liked fighting and were good at it.

"But why did you two lose? I'm very curious."

Glancing at Lan Qingyou eating and drinking heartily in the Rest Area, Diana raised her head and looked at Alice and Nangong Lengyue sitting on the sofa outside the desk.

To be honest, including Ursula, these three were absolute elites she had carefully selected in the shortest amount of time.

As a result, two of them were defeated just like that.

And both were inexplicably defeated.
