Chapter 128 The Hobbit
"Adela, what's your schedule today?"
When Ma Long asked this, it was already three days later, and he was eating a refined breakfast that was not considered as a god.
Except for the lush vegetation and bushy garden, there were two additional soldiers of the National Defense Army, and everything was restored to the point before the appearance of the Demon Advance Army.
Guided by deliberate news, the influence of the demon advance team's invasion of the Fanhua Garden has subsided, and it has reoccupied the attention of people in Baisha City. It is the rematch of the first Virtual Fighting Grand Prix that will start tomorrow.
The 7,621 players who advance to the rematch will each enter the rematch with 10 basic points.
Then, the Indiscriminate Challenge is divided into twenty areas - all participants can challenge any other participants at will, challenge 10 consecutive games or be challenged 20 games to get the chance to avoid the fight on the same day.
In each battle, the winner gets half of the loser's points, and you can advance if you get 500 points. If you have a point less than 1, you will lose the qualification to continue the game.
...
These are the rules for the rematch that have been clearly written in various newspapers and magazines, as well as in those 20 stadiums.
Although it seems to be a 50-to-1 promotion rate, in fact, most of the promotion points of the promotion will definitely exceed 500 points. Therefore, according to Evena's estimate, the final promotion rate may be only 70-to-1 or lower. In this way, the number of promotions who will eventually enter the third round will drop to more than 100.
In this way, the audience's attention that was originally scattered among more than 7,000 contestants will be focused on these more than 100 promotionists...
"Young Master, according to today's schedule, in addition to the things that must be done every day, you also need to complete the press conference of General Vega, a new character in the Little Overlord Fighting Competition between 8:00 and 10:00; after 10:00, you need to accept an exclusive interview with Mr. Richardson, a reporter from the capital Finico "Loring Times Weekly"; at 2:00 pm, the Young Master needs to attend the opening ceremony of the Taichung server initiated by Jade Emblem Publishing House and your Nine Astronomy Bar."
Adela, who was still wearing a refreshing maid outfit, opened a small hard-skinned notebook and answered Ma Long's questions line by line.
"It's another busy and busy day." Ma Long scratched his head and made a sighing voice. One word after another proved that he had never been easy for the past few days, but soon Ma Long asked a new question: "What time is it now?"
"Six:07."
Adela answered in an extremely affirmative tone without even looking at any clocks.
"Is it six:07? That's about two hours of free time..." Ma Long swallowed a piece of bread into his stomach with his neck, and then Gudong Gudong drank most of the big cup of milk tea that was originally placed at his hand in one breath: "I decided, while this is nearly two hours, we will continue to write a novel of 20,000 words!"
"Okay, I'll get paper and pen now. Well... Is it the Book of Ely or the Earl of Monte Cristo or the Badge of the Royal Family or the Dust of History or something?"
Adella obviously agrees with Ma Long's diligence when he takes advantage of the situation, but Ma Long has published too many books now, so Adella asks first every time.
"None of them is, it's a new book." Ma Long put down his milk tea cup, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "The name of this book is... "The Hobbit."
"Hobbit? Master, what is the Habit?"
There is no doubt that for Adela the word Habit is a new word that is unheard of.
"You can think of it as a halfling, although the Hobbits have unparalleled big feet and are optimistic and cheerful."
Malone explained patiently.
"Oh, I understand, I have a premonition that Master - this must be a very interesting story!"
Adella nodded and then said happily.
Of course it's interesting. "The Hobbit" is a masterpiece by j-r-r-Tolkien, but it's a prequel to "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy".
Over the past three days, Ma Long has been diligently practicing his spiritual energy, but he has consumed nearly a hundred energy storage magic crystals, and has only expanded the spiritual energy spring a little.
At the beginning, the elf dragon Icarus took the initiative to help, using dragon language magic to help Malone recover his strength, but after nearly a hundred spell casts Icarus was obviously not happy to help again-
This situation forced Ma Long to suspend his crazy practice. He decided to create another new person who could make his spiritual energy spring come out, and he might surge again.
So, after thinking about it, Malone finally decided to start writing the prequel of "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" "The Hobbit".
Is the reason? First, "The Hobbit" can be regarded as a fairy tale, and fairy tales are undoubtedly easy to understand; second, Gandalf, an important figure in the Lord of the Rings trilogy in "The Hobbit", will make a brilliant debut and shine in the book; third, Malone decided to make a new attempt, and he plans to slightly enhance Gandalf's strength in "The Hobbit" or the Gray Robe Wizard" to see if it will have an impact on Gandalf in his memory.
He picked up another piece of bread and tried to use the Hobbit to achieve multiple goals. Ma Long thought while biting his mouth.
The little fox girl sitting next to Ma Long was cutely holding a small piece of bread, smiling and playing the game of eating with the elf dragon Icarus, who was soft on Ma Long's shoulders.
Speaking of which, Ami and Icarus have a great relationship, because Malone will be covered in mud when she hugged Icarus, but Ami can hug Icarus no matter how she hugs it.
If it weren't for confirming from Nevtu Akramon that Icarus's gender is definitely female, Malone would definitely regard Icarus as the legendary seductive dragon, and the hopeless lolita among seductive dragons.
"Young master, the paper and pen are taken, let's start!"
He picked up the little fox girl's special teacup, and just fed the little fox girl who was having fun and was having fun and drank a few sips of pure milk. Adela had already taken the paper and pen and urged her.
"By the way, Adella, how many ten thousand words have you helped me write shorthand for me in the past two months?"
However, Ma Long did not start telling the story of "The Hobbit", but suddenly asked again.
"I haven't calculated it for a long time. It should have been... more than one million and nine hundred thousand words?"
Adella tilted her head and thought for a while before answering in an uncertain tone.
"Is it more than one million and nine hundred thousand words?" This answer made Ma Long's expression become melancholy: "A thousand words one rand, ten thousand words one hundred thousand words, one million words one million and nine hundred thousand words is one thousand nine hundred rand. I have already owed such a large salary of the beautiful and capable Miss Adela? Oh my God... I'm going bankrupt!"
In the past few days, in order to enhance the defense of the Fanhua Garden, Ma Long gritted his teeth and used Captain Haken's relationship to free up nearly 10,000 ammunition worth nearly 10,000 rands from the warehouse of excess military supplies.
So just like what Ma Long said, from the book funds, he is now on the verge of bankruptcy - if he pays all the debts that should be paid, Ma Long may have a negative asset now.
And if that's right, I will soon pay the new monthly salary to the maids at home.
"Young Master, this joke is not funny at all. Miss Evena said that the new manuscript will be delivered in the past two days. The newspaper said that the first volume of "The Legend of Chunli" that was quickly printed has been sold in Baisha City for a total of 180,000 copies, which is almost equivalent to every two citizens of Baisha City buying one. Moreover, the newspaper said that the vice president of Alan Doyle of Jade Emblem Publishing House revealed that the new books you have recently written have very good sales in the national market. Even Kalantu and Helfa booksellers came to negotiate the Elf-speaking areas and the publishing authorization of Hale French-speaking areas!"
Adella obviously sneered at Ma Long's statement. In her opinion, no one who goes bankrupt will go bankrupt, and she has 1,000% confidence in this.
Of course, Adela still enjoyed it very much for Malone to praise her beauty and be able to do this.
"Is that true? If that's the case, I'll feel a little relieved."
Ma Long was a little surprised because he had no time to read the newspaper in detail these days. He read the newspaper routinely every day, which was just a little bit brighter in the first page.
However, Adella will definitely not lie to us, so Evena should be able to send a check of at least R100,000 soon.
With this little money, I can hold on for a while...
Yes, although Ma Long was so poor that he wanted to break the money of a Poole into two, it was only two or three months. In the eyes of Ma Long, who had already handled 400,000 rands, the huge sum of rands of 100,000 rands had become a small amount.
Moreover, Malone could really spend such a huge sum of money to half a Poole within a week or two.
"At least, it feels so good to be rich again..." Malone muttered, and then he turned his head back to the kitten woman who was still having fun with the elf dragon Icarus: "Cute Miss Amy, drink the remaining milk quickly, and then I will start telling a new story, the story of "The Hobbit".
The little fox girl thrust her cute blue eyes, then whispered to the milk she fed Ma Long to her mouth and drank it clean.
"Well, so well-behaved! I like the obedient and good Ami the most!"
Ma Long took the opportunity to pinch the little fox girl's pink face again, and then started to tell the story of "The Hobbit" before the little fox girl grinned her teeth in anger.
“Once there was a hobbit who lived in a cave.
It's not the kind of dirty, damp, scented with mud, and there are holes with insect shells everywhere.
It is not a dry sand cave, which has no decorations in the sand cave, and there is not even a stool that allows you to sit down and rest or eat something.
This is the cave where the Hobbits live, that is, a very comfortable cave.
There is a round door in the ground hole, like a boat's porthole, painted green.
There is a shiny brass handle in the middle of the door.
This door leads to a hall that is shaped like a pipe, or the hall looks like a tunnel - a very comfortable tunnel.
There is no smoke and dust, the walls are inlaid with wooden boards, the floor is covered with tiles, and carpets are covered with tiles..."
