When Josh said this, General Fred couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“I thought you were as boring as those old foxes, but it seems that I was wrong! Josh Arnold, I’ll buy you a drink sometime!”
The country of steel had a long tradition of dueling. The gladiatorial competition was an annual event in their country, so the old general was naturally addicted to it.
Joshua’s words completely hit the point that General Fred was most interested in.
“What’s the content of the competition? Horse racing? Or a duel?”
The fox-like man was ready to face the battle. His tone was filled with a feeling that he was sure to win.
“Give up, Old Fox. No matter which match it is, you won’t be able to win against us.”
General Fred tapped his chest with his hand. This was a habit he had accumulated from years of fighting. When he was wearing a full set of armor, this action was similar to a roar to boost morale before a battle.
The man ignored General Fred. His gaze fell on Jose, quietly waiting for Jose to announce the content of the match.
“Didn’t I say it before? A duel, a five-man team duel.”Joshua further informed the other party of the rules.
“If the venue of the duel is in our territory, I would be happy to organize a duel, but Mr. Joshua, this is Nolan,”the man reminded Joshua. “Nolan will not allow such a barbaric duel.”
A fight between slaves, a life-and-death duel to please others, was a tradition in both the country of steel and the country of frost. The winner walked on the path of Blood and bones to win glory.
“I’m not interested in that kind of bloody fight. I’m not referring to the competition in the real world.”
Joshua waved his hand in front of everyone and opened the magic net interface, directly clicking into the game “Warcraft.”.
This warcraft was still a defective product in Josh’s eyes. In terms of plot, Josh had only done the first part of the Warcraft 1 battle.
The most incomplete part was that there was almost no voice acting. The game that it extended, Holy Spirit, was an unfinished product.
That was why Josh had only let Holy Spirit Open for a week as a test.
“A game?”
General Fred looked at the two flags fluttering on the interface of Joshua’s Mana Net, and his brows immediately furrowed.
Although this general used the mana net, he was very disgusted with the games on the mana net and the Hearthstone legend.
The main reason was that Prince Kaos had been addicted to it for a period of time, and in general Fred’s eyes, it was a complete loss of his will.
“Correct. This is a game called ‘Holy Spirit’.”
”…”
At this moment, General Fred was silent. This feeling was no less than when he rushed into the enemy’s formation on the battlefield. In the end, he found that they were all a group of Scarecrows, and there was even a layer of asphalt under the scarecrows.
“Please tell me the rules of the game.”
The noble from the Frost Kingdom did not dislike the game. He directly asked Joshua about the rules of the game.
“This game is called the Holy Spirit. The rules are a little complicated. You will summon the great spirits of the past in this game. They will fight for you.”
Joshua switched the interface of the window and showed a large portion of the screenshots of the Holy Spirit to everyone present.
The conceptual blueprint of the map and the drawing of the design heroes.
In this beta version of the Holy Spirit, Joshua only added five new heroes to the original five heroes. There were only ten in total.
As the starting lineup, it was very shabby, but it could still be improved as much as possible in the future.
“The Great Spirit of the Holy Spirit? Master Craftsman Bazuli? !”General freed instantly found a familiar one among the designs of the heroes.
It was one of the founders of the magic-powered machinery in the steel country, the alchemist known as master craftsman.
“I designed it based on the painting found in the book.”Jose fixed the hero design on the character. From the appearance, it was just a hunched old man, and his left hand was replaced by a magic-powered machine.
“In the historical records, Master Bazuli didn’t go to the battlefield when he was alive!”
General Fred raised an objection to this character.
“But the magic machine he designed played an excellent role on the battlefield, didn’t it? “If you think this character offended the people of the country of steel, I can delete it…”Jose didn’t remember that there was a portrait right in this world, however, the design of the hero was to respect the impression of the citizens of various countries as much as possible. This was also the standard that Joshua needed to guarantee.
“This…”
General Fred was stunned for a moment. He noticed that the old Fox next to him did not make a sound to ridicule him. Instead, he was waiting for him to finish speaking.
“Forget it, forget it. I’m not qualified to make this decision.”
General Fred forcefully suppressed his prejudice towards the magic net game and gave a more rational answer.
“The rules of the game are quite troublesome for me to explain. You can go back and experience it yourself, so I’ll announce the rules of the game here,”said Jose as he raised his thumb.
“The first participant must be based on the country. For example, general Fred and the other nobles of the country of steel. You can only participate in the country of steel as a team. The maximum number of people on the team is eight. Five people are the official participants, and three people are the substitutes. Once the participants sign up, they can not be changed.”
After saying that, Joshua raised his index finger again.
“The second match will be held in seven days. The venue will be at the Hearthstone Tavern. You guys can prepare the game’s peripherals on your own. For example, the raw crystal mouse. I will vacate the venue on that day.”At this point, Joshua raised his middle finger. “There are some rules above the third place. The other part is a suggestion. There are still some rules that I haven’t thought of yet, so you guys can just take it as a suggestion.”
“According to what you said, Mr. Joshua, we can only gather six teams. Can we participate in the competition as individuals?”
The man from the frost country seemed to be dissatisfied with the system of participating in the competition as a country.
Some of the people present were nobles from small countries, while the majority of the people present were nobles from the frost country.
“Is it not interesting in your own name? Or is this gentleman not willing to represent your country in this small competition?”
The rules that Joshua set were deliberate.
The nobles from all over the world had gradually experienced the benefits of the magic net. The rarity of the leaves of the world tree meant that the magic net would become a ‘luxury item’.
Jose decided to use this competition to make the game of the magic net a duel with knights. Like the Gladiator competition in the country of steel, it would allow the winner to win the competition with supreme honor and be noticed by the entire world.
Of course… at this stage, in Jose’s view, it was just a ‘small gamble’in the tavern, but this gamble was just an attempt.
The best situation that Joshua hoped for was that as time passed, these nobles might not choose to settle their grudges with long swords when there was friction. Instead, they would calmly sit down and play ‘Holy Spirit’.
“The Karshilov family will represent the country of Frost to participate in this competition.”This man was the most powerful among all the nobles of the country of frost, so he naturally had the absolute right to speak.
“I will represent the country of steel to participate in the competition.”
General Fred also accepted Joshua’s challenge letter.
“Very good. The choice of the contestants will be left to you. This game is not a game that can be won by luck.”
Joshua looked at the two people in front of him. The moment they accepted the challenge, the smell of gunpowder had already risen to a limit.
This was the situation that Joshua hoped to see. Under such circumstances, they would choose to go all out.
