Looking at the people chatting, Feng Qi, who was walking at the back of the group, grinned.
Rather than calling Breaking Dawn a game, it was more like an a.r.s.enal to train human warriors. It was a super invention that combined entertainment and confrontation training.
This was also the key reason why he was eager to create this game.
At this moment, the new foundation had been completed. He was only waiting for the seeds planted to grow and germinate, and prop up a brand new future in the long river of history.
He had always been looking forward to the future.
It was already past six o’clock when they arrived at the cafeteria.
The starving group took their plates and began to pick their food.
It was already autumn, and there was a seasonal delicacy called hairy crab in the buffet area today.
Unlike before the calamity, the hairy crabs of this era were all farmed, but they were also extremely delicious.
At this moment, the students in the buffet area where the hairy crabs were placed were endless.
In order to satisfy the students’ demand for hairy crabs, the chefs at the back of the buffet area were still busy. From time to time, they would bring out a large pot of hairy crabs and place them in the buffet area.
Feng Qi naturally would not miss out on such a seasonal delicacy. He immediately grabbed three from the fresh pot and placed them on his plate.
The pot of crabs had just been placed in the buffet area was emptied in a short while.
Of course, a dipping sauce was a must-have when eating hairy crabs. It was the soul of this dish.
He went to the seasoning area in the middle of the buffet and took a condiment bowl. Then, he took the chopped spring onions, ginger, garlic, and chili padi and placed them in the bowl. Then, he poured in soy sauce and vinegar.
After stirring it with the serving chopsticks, he went to the north corner of the cafeteria with his plate and sat down.
Then, Lin Ran, Mu Qing, and the students arrived one after another.
The north corner of the cafeteria had become their gathering place.
Delicacies had always been one of Feng Qi’s few hobbies. He reached out and grabbed a hairy crab.
The surface of the crab was covered in a layer of pale yellow grease that seeped out from the inside. One could even smell a faint sweet fragrance.
The ingredients provided to Star City Academy were always top-notch.
At the same price, the supplier of ingredients would definitely leave the best for the students of the academy because the students here represented the future of humanity.
Therefore, every crab was the best.
He untied the rope on the hairy crab and removed the stomach, gills, hearts, and intestines one by one. Then, he split the crab in half.
He gently touched the dip and took a bite.
In October, the male crab’s body was full of thick meat and innards.
The steam locked in the freshness of the crab meat. He could feel the clear and sweet crab meat disintegrating into strips as he chewed.
With one bite, the aftertaste lingered in his mouth.
He quickly ate this hairy crab, including the meat on every crab leg.
Then came the second, and the third.
The three hairy crabs he brought over were eaten in a short while. Although he was not satisfied, he did not go and get them again. He planned to fill his stomach first before enjoying the delicious food.
After half an hour of eating, everyone stopped with satisfied expressions.
Only Feng Qi and Mu Qing were still eating.
After finishing the food on his plate, Feng Qi went to get another plate of hairy crabs. While waiting for Mu Qing, he also enjoyed the delicious food.
The logistics department of Star City Academy had clearly taken into account the students’ enthusiasm for hairy crabs.
There was a good supply of crabs. The only problem was that the chef team could not keep up with the speed at which the students took their food.
It was 7:20 p.m.
Mu Qing finally stopped eating and a cute and satisfied smile appeared on her face.
“Let’s take a walk on the field first. We’ll enter Breaking Dawn at eight to start our confrontational training. I’ll rearrange the teams later.”
With that, Feng Qi stood up with his plate.
Seeing this, Lin Ran and the others stood up and followed Feng Qi to the area where the plates were placed.
When they left the cafeteria, it was already dark outside.
The street lamps in the academy had already lit up, illuminating the sky and turning it slightly red. One could clearly see groups of mosquitoes dancing around the street lamps.
Then, Feng Qi brought the students to the field and strolled and chatted.
At eight o’clock, everyone returned to the gymnasium.
If the library of Star City Academy was the most crowded area at night, then the gymnasium was second.
Those students who took the path of body cultivation would often come here for special training at night.
If not for the excellent soundproofing in the gymnasium, one could still hear the shouts and moans of the students training when they pa.s.sed by at night.
They followed the walkway in the gymnasium and arrived at Room 1019.
After turning on the lights, everyone walked into the cubicle and began to change into their game clothes.
A new round of confrontation training began.
The last training made Feng Qi realize that Mu Qing was a huge variable.
Therefore, after entering the game and creating a custom room, he pulled himself, Mu Qing, and Lin Ran to the red camp.
The other ten were a.s.signed to the blue team.
He chose to partic.i.p.ate in the match personally. Apart from training the combat abilities of Lu Yue and the others, he also wanted to try to train himself in the confrontation training.
As for the difference in strength between the two sides, he was not worried with Mu Qing around.
In the upcoming match, he had to start training the coordination of the ten people and their self-orientation during the team battle.
The preliminary 20 minutes of preparation and settings officially began.
The random map this time was the “Cloud Summit Mountain Range”. The map environment was a mountain peak covered in thick clouds. There was a red sun hanging in the sky, and the scenery was especially beautiful.
A new match began here.
Over the next two days, Feng Qi led the group of students to carry out high-intensity simulated confrontation training.
Basically, he would start the next round after one round.
Other than cla.s.s and mealtimes, he spent the rest of the time in Room 1019 in the gymnasium.
The effect of the training was also very obvious.
All the students found their own positions.
For example, Lu Yue and Yang Xiaoxin were the absolute main damage dealers of this team.
Yan Yue was the number one tank in the team.
The three Xia brothers acted as support and were in charge of coordinating with the main forces to attack.
Cai Guo was the only medic. She was responsible for enhancing the conditions of her teammates, healing their injuries, and restoring their stamina.
Xu Hongyun and the monk were in charge of protecting from the back and did not take the initiative to attack.
When necessary, they would choose to sacrifice themselves to protect the backline’s main damage output.
Finally, there was Jia Yi, the “special support”.
Jia Yi, who cultivated array formations, had a relatively vague position in the team. He could a.s.sist and attack, and he could also form a formation to resist the enemy’s long-range spell attacks.
He could even use array formations to set up traps and ambush their opponents.
Over the past two days of training, the ten of them gradually matured in their team battle awareness, and their tacit understanding of each other improved significantly.
In the beginning, their voice channel was always filled with all kinds of content.
Other than the reserved Lu Yue, the other nine people felt that failure was the problem of their useless teammates and had nothing to do with them.
Therefore, after every match ended, they would curse at one another.
This was naturally not what Feng Qi wanted to see.
Therefore, after every round, he would deduce the reasons for their defeat with Lin Ran and Mu Qing. He would find flaws and provide suggestions.
Under such high-intensity training, their teamwork improved by leaps and bounds.
When the battle began, every person would quickly know what he had to do and not be at a loss.
Other than that,
the high-intensity training during this period of time had also significantly improved their control over spells.
For example, Cai Guo.
Over the past two days, she had continuously released an enhancement spell called Nature’s Spirit and gradually mastered the technique.
When she tried to use the skill trajectory from the game to cast spells in reality, she could already succeed once or twice out of 10 times.
This was also related to the fact that Nature’s Spirit was an extremely simple spell.
However, it also meant that Breaking Dawn could indeed help players (cultivators) increase their control over spells and even learn a new spell.
On the third day, there were still two days before the freshmen compet.i.tion.
Feng Qi changed his training method.
This time, he put Lin Ran, Mu Qing, and himself in the spectator seats.
Then, 200 bot players were set up to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion.
Although bot players did not have much intelligence and it was difficult for them to display high effective combat strength in a game that completely simulated reality, they had the advantage in numbers and casting spells without any delay.
In the freshmen compet.i.tion, the number of people from the other partic.i.p.ating cla.s.ses was several times more than their cla.s.s.
This time, Feng Qi planned to train their team battle ability.
As it turned out, the training over the past few days was very effective. Lu Yue and the others performed outstandingly against the 200 bot players.
They actually won two of the seven matches.
These were victories achieved without Lu Yue using his sword force.
This made Feng Qi even more confident in the upcoming freshmen compet.i.tion..
