Chapter 451 - GETTING ON THE GALLEON (1/2)

”TO those participating in the Rookie Carnival, please proceed forward.  And to those who are planning to watch the preliminary and already had a ticket, please go to the right,” a female NPC said.

Luo Yan looked at both direction that the NPC mentioned.  Going forward, there were already lines of people in front of a very huge ship.  It was designed not like a modern ship but like a galleon.  There was no doubt that this was the ship that would bring them to the venue of the prelims.

On the right, there was a teleportation portal.  He saw a player entering the portal disappearing, most likely teleporting to the venue of the prelims.  Luo Yan guessed that this portal would automatically detect the presence of the prelims' ticket in the player's Items Tab.  If not, then wouldn't that mean that those who didn't have tickets could just go directly to the venue using the portal?  How could the game developers do something so careless?

”I guess we'll have to separate here,” Luo Yan started.

”Yan Yan, good luck!” Yu Jiao said.  Then, as if remembering that Luo Jin would also participate in the prelims.  ”Ahm, good luck to you too, Luo Jin.”

Luo Yan almost chuckled at Yu Jia's obvious gaffe.  ”Thank you, Jiao Jiao.”

Luo Jin only nodded and didn't mind that the other obviously forgotten him.

Although Luo Ren was also quite amused by Yu Jiao, he still faced his brothers.  ”You two, try your best not to get hurt, okay?  And,” he put one hand on Luo Yan's shoulder and the other on Luo Jin's head (because his avatar was too short).  ”Well, I guess, win.”

”Brother, don't you think your words are putting too much pressure on us?” Luo Jin said, removing his brother's paw on his hair.

”What, is Xiao Jin pressured, then?” Luo Ren asked, raising one of his brows.

He actually wasn't planning to say that.  But, considering his brothers' characters, if he said something along the lines of 'it's okay even if you don't win', he was sure these two would definitely not like that.  And based on their expression right now, he definitely did choose right.

Luo Jin scoffed.  ”How could that be possible?  We'll definitely win.”

”I second that,” Luo Yan quickly followed with a grin.

”It's good to be confident,” Bai Ze said, nodding his head in appreciation of his cousins' confidence.  ”I'm sure the two of you will do great.”

”Make sure to watch out for any sneak attacks,” Su Yuqi reminded.  Then she turned to Luo Jin.  ”And you, try not to lose your temper.”

The little gnome's face suddenly turned red.  ”Who—” he stopped before he said anything stupid.  Like 'your whole family lose their temper' for example.  That would definitely be too embarrassing.  ”Thank you.  I- I'll try my best not to lose my temper.”

Luo Ren looked interestingly at the two 'children'.  He remembered how Luo Yan teased their youngest about this Su Yuqi sometimes.  And it seemed that this girl actually had some understanding of Luo Jin.  In terms of chasing people, maybe he had more hope than him – he thought while giving the handsome 'guy' beside him a glance.

[Mashter, are you going to leave Eclipse here now?] – Eclipse asked, sounding very said as if he was about to be abandoned.

[Yes.  I'll leave you with your favorite Captain.] – Luo Yan said.

Then the whole face of the little fox suddenly brightened.  [Then Eclipse will wait with Captain and we will watch as you win!]

Eclipse joyfully jumped from his shoulder to Shen Ji Yun's arms.  The other easily managed to catch the little fox.  Maybe because he had done it a lot of times already.
