The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 556 This competition is too unserious! (asking for monthly votes)

"Boss Xu, when will your [Rejuvenation] function lower the age to 40?"

"I also want to feel the young body of an 18-year-old."

The middle-aged man Huo Dao looked at the energetic young man in front of him and felt extremely envious.

Xu Meng nodded: "I will seriously consider it."

After saying that, he moved forward in the crowded crowd, worried about Xiao Meng.

Some of the players in the Sprawling City are just ordinary people, but some have telekinetic abilities, some have undergone organ transformations, and some have dragon soul bonuses.

It's hard to strike a balance when racing here.

I don’t know if Xiao Meng noticed this.

At this time, Xu Meng had a wonderful feeling of attending a parent-teacher meeting at school and appreciating her children's handicrafts with others.

This feeling of tension was greatly relieved when we passed through the portal and entered the animal kingdom.
-
What you see is a fairy-tale kingdom where wolves and rabbits are as close as a family and all animals live in harmony.

And most animals have one thing in common:

They are all fat!
Before coming in, many players were worried that they would not be able to catch up with the running animals and would be eliminated.

The result came out:
My goodness, the cheetah, which is known for its agility, started panting after running just a dozen meters...

Even a kid can catch up.

"child?"

Xu Meng looked at the players here and found that the proportion of children was unexpectedly high.

Not to mention eleven or twelve years old, there are quite a few children who are seven or eight years old!
The little guy on the front left who is holding a baby elephant tightly looks to be no more than 7 years old.

The little guy's parents squatted beside him, watching him play happily.

Xu Meng suddenly realized:
This family didn't come to participate in the competition at all.

They brought their children here just for the name of Animal Kingdom!

And looking around, there are actually quite a few people like this——

On the way to find animal friends, he saw a little girl holding a platypus, a fat boy holding a mini Highland cattle, a little boy who was swaying like a penguin, and a brother and sister chasing a fat fox.

A group of adults in the Sprawling City Development Team have been working for so long, trying every possible way to build buildings and facilities to serve the elderly and children, but it seems that they are not as attractive as the animal kingdom created by Xiao Meng!

While Xu Meng was thinking about this, she was looking for a suitable animal companion.

But it's not easy.

Animals that were larger and didn’t look that fat were all snatched up.

Even before the players are convinced, there are already players standing by, gesticulating and courting the animals, hoping to become teammates in the game.

"Are you... tap dancing in front of a zebra?" Xu Meng asked in confusion.

Fang Shuo, who was dancing under the breadfruit tree, turned around and saw that it was Xu Meng. He quickly replied, "Yes, is the method wrong?"

"How would I know if it's right..." Xu Meng shook her head, "Come on."

Just as I was about to leave, I saw the zebra react -

Also started tapping and dancing!
"Ah?" Xu Meng was surprised. "Is it really possible?"

Fang Shuo, however, excitedly hugged the zebra's neck and rode on it, laughing from ear to ear.

……

Xu Meng searched for half an hour but couldn't find one that looked like it could be ridden or run.

Finally, it bumped into a super goose that was three times the size of a normal goose. It was chased for several hundred meters before it stopped panting.

Then, inexplicably, they became "partners", and the big goose followed wherever it went.

Xu Meng simply went with the flow and continued wandering around with the big goose.

——Anyway, the purpose of participating in the competition is to support Xiao Meng, not to win.

……

……

In the first 30 minutes, the animals are running around, making it difficult for the players.

After half an hour, the fat animal stopped moving.

Those who are not so fat are still struggling.

After an hour, all animals stop, giving the player a chance to create.

Even when some people are tired from running and stand still, small animals will randomly come over and give them a chance.

An hour and a half later.

Grand fireworks bloomed in the sky of the Animal Kingdom.

The white clouds that were originally as big as cotton candy twisted into lines of words:
[The first stage is over, the competition will begin soon! ]
[Stay with your animal companions!]
[3]
[2]
[1]
For all players who found an animal companion, the grass beneath their feet suddenly twisted and came alive like silk.

Finally, they turned into pairs of green wings and flew up from the ground.

Many people were caught off guard and lost their balance, sitting down on the grass, and the fat animals fell down with them.

But at this point the grass had already flown up, so if you fell it would be soft and you wouldn’t feel any pain.

These grass wings carried players and animals through the portal and into the Overgrown City.

Xiao Meng, who was waiting in the square, also sat on a pair of green wings, taking the lead along the roads that extended in all directions in the city, turning left and right, and flew to the edge of the city.

During this process, flags with Xiao Meng's cartoon portrait printed on them were raised one after another on both sides of the road.

That was the checkpoint for the race.

The vehicles and pedestrians on the street looked up and looked in surprise at the green torrent flying over their heads with laughter and screams, and cast curious glances.

Finally, Xiao Meng stopped at the northern edge of the city.

The wings following behind landed one after another, dropped the people off, and then flew away on their own.

Xu Meng knew at a glance that Xiao Meng had temporarily changed the terrain here. She pushed open the buildings on both sides, expanding the original open space of less than 8 square meters to the size of dozens of football fields, and the driveway was wide enough to accommodate Gundams racing.

Otherwise, it will be completely unable to accommodate the participating players.

The green wings carried Xiao Meng and floated in front of the starting line, waiting for everyone to arrive.

Xiao Huajiao, who was standing at the front of the starting line, shouted that he was lucky and jumped up and down to take a photo with Xiao Meng.

Xu Meng still remembered that this girl seemed to be a succubus or a nymphomaniac, so he became very alert.

Fortunately, Xiao Meng seems to have the same idea——

Little Pepper gets tickled by her chubby golden monkey friend!
……

After waiting for a few minutes, Xiao Meng stood up from the wings and finally reminded:

"Animal companions are very fragile. If they get hurt, you will also be disqualified from the competition."

“So you must protect them!”

"Xiao Meng wants to remind everyone: Animal companions are neutral units. Your special abilities may cause them to be accidentally injured."

"So unless it's absolutely necessary, it's not recommended to use special abilities casually!"

"Also, don't mind the order of your starting point. The finish time will be calculated from the moment you leave the starting point."

"Finally, I'll give you 10 seconds to prepare!"

"10!"

……

"1!"

"Game start!"

The loud whistle sounded in everyone's ears.

The players who had been ready for a long time rushed out of the starting line in an instant!
They said it was fast, but actually, I don’t know if it was Xiao Meng’s deliberate arrangement, the players at the front couldn’t run fast—

Little Pepper is holding a sulky golden monkey, a little Fatty is holding a penguin, and a brown bear is holding a pickled radish by the collar...

The players riding on horses, bears, pigs, cows and hippos behind were extremely anxious.

Xu Meng was just watching for fun at first.

But once the congestion in front of him eased and he broke through the starting line to start the actual race, things soon became sour!

His animal companion, the ridiculously large goose, suddenly starts attacking others!
Whether it was the players around it or their animal companions, it would stretch its neck and bite them.

It even dares to pounce on other people's tiger companions and take a bite!

Xu Meng finally understood what Xiao Meng meant by "neutral unit"!

He had to free up one hand to grab the neck of the goose that was showing an overwhelming desire to attack.

……

The first section was a 200-meter straight sprint without any obstacles, and the players ran in a mess.

All kinds of animals seemed to be freed from their restraints, and their natures began to awaken.

Tigers and lions roared, elephants mooed, ducks quacked, dogs barked...

It was such a big noise!
Fortunately, Xu Meng's goose was just a special case. The other animals were not very aggressive. They were just "good friends playing around" and were quite careful about their actions.

——A little raccoon dared to jump off the player’s shoulders and elbow the lion!

The lion just shook it off impatiently and kicked it away!
“Crispy noodles!!!”

The dumbfounded player rushed over, picked up the raccoon and checked if he was injured.

The fat little raccoon rolled on the ground a few times. Its fur was just a little dirty, but there was no problem.

He was still glaring at the lion in dissatisfaction!
Xu Meng looked at the messy scene and felt that the competition was a bit unserious.

But look at the players around you.

Although he was extremely anxious, he also seemed to be enjoying it a bit.

……

The 200 meters passed in a flash.

After turning the corner, the street width shrinks rapidly, reducing to twice the width of the main road.

The scattered players and animals were gradually gathered together again.

Fang Shuo rode his zebra past Xu Meng quickly, and when he saw Xu Meng, he didn't forget to shout, "Run!!"

"Run!"

"Run faster!!"

Xu Meng was speechless: "If you want to win, just run. Why are you rushing me? How can I hurry up with this stupid goose?"

Just as I was thinking this, I heard rumbling footsteps behind me, and even the ground began to shake.

Long Chengfei rode past him on a hippopotamus.

Seeing Xu Meng, he also shouted loudly: "Boss Xu! Run!!"

Only then did Xu Meng realize that something was wrong.

Looking back——

An oversized transparent hamster ball appeared out of nowhere and filled the entire street!

The fat hamster inside, which was more than ten meters tall, was pushing a hamster ball, crushing vehicles and crashing into the outer walls of buildings on both sides, rushing towards the densely packed players!
At this moment, Xu Meng suddenly understood what the furry ball that Xiao Meng made last night was.

——It turned out to be a hamster!
A 15-meter-tall hamster!
Xu Meng was so shocked that she forgot to breathe.

After being pulled by a passing player again, he turned around and ran away, dragging the unconvinced goose!

Death doesn’t matter.

But being crushed to death by a hamster is a shame for the rest of your life! !
