Chapter 271 Audience Admission
The Blue Whale is the largest mechanized sports stadium in the capital of Monmed. It is shaped like a whale and is covered with water-blue glass, hence the name.
On the way there, Xu Weiwei had already felt the strong atmosphere of the competition. Red flags symbolizing the fighting competition were hung along the road, and the logos of the eight clubs and their representative figures appeared on the billboards.
Fans wearing cheering uniforms and with paint on their faces rushed in one direction in groups of three or five, and each of their faces was filled with anticipation and excitement.
Sifos and his friends bought VIP seats in the first row of the inner field, and they could enter in advance through the VIP channel. The interior of the stadium is oval-shaped and has a large area. It looks very empty now. The "center" in the middle is the venue for the game later. The audience seats surround the center of the circle, and are arranged in rows outward.
Xu Weiwei took a quick look and saw that the first row was very close to the venue, and the chairs were black leather sofas, with the words "expensive" and "high-end" written all over them. The chairs in the back were all plastic, separated by an iron fence.
The staff led them to their seats, and seeing that Xu Weiwei was sitting in a wheelchair, they considerately offered to bring her a blanket.
Meilin declined: "No, we have all these things with us."
After saying that, he and No. 7 disinfected all the seats, put a blanket and a waist support on Xu Weiwei, put out some snacks, and then went to get hot water to make tea.
Xu Weiwei stood up cautiously, took two steps forward, and looked at the competition venue that was so close. She was scared: This is too close, I will be on the stage in one more step...Will I get hurt accidentally when the fight starts?
Kane stood beside her nervously, ready to support her at any time.
"Brother, you must have seen the scene many times, right? Are other competition venues so close? Ahem..."
"That's about right. There are even places that are even closer, where you can sit with your feet right next to the playing field."
Xu Weiwei was very surprised: "So close, won't you get hurt? This sport is very intense, right? What if I get knocked away while sitting in the first row?"
Kane smiled and patted her head: "Are you scared now?... Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Look at the circle of black grooves on the side. It's a protective device. Before the game starts, the reactor inside will emit an invisible solid wall. When the rotating 'walls' are connected together, they will form an energy field, covering the contestants like a shield."
Xu Weiwei looked as if she had suddenly understood something. No wonder they dared to arrange the seats so close to each other. It turned out that they had made some preparations.
"Okay, go back. You've been standing for a while." Kane advised, holding her elbow.
"I'll just move around a bit. When the game starts, I won't be able to move around. The doctor said I can't sit still all the time or my leg muscles will atrophy."
"Okay, then stand there for a while. Want to go up and take a look? Experience the feeling of standing in the middle of the stadium."
"Is it okay?" Xu Weiwei opened her eyes wide.
"Of course, no one will care." Kane said firmly. As long as they didn't carry a sledgehammer and destroy things everywhere, the staff would not restrict their behavior.
Kane helped her up and stood in the place that would be the center of everyone's attention.
The metal floor beneath their feet was thick and shiny, like a mirror, reflecting the spotlights above and their own shadows. Looking up, they saw the densely packed seats, surrounding them like a mountain of guards. Standing on it, they felt extremely small.
Xu Weiwei's heart beat twice. She just came up to feel it, and she was already nervous before anyone sat on it. It was really amazing to be able to compete on it.
The staff were busy around, debugging the lighting, sound and other equipment, and the host was also checking the process below. Xu Weiwei was embarrassed to stay there for too long, so she said to Kane, "Brother, let's go down."
"Okay, slow down."
Xu Weiwei moved back to sit on the sofa, picked up the rose tea that Meilin had brewed, and took a sip. Her nostrils were filled with fragrance.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the entrance. Xu turned around and found that the audience was starting to enter.
The crowd rushed in from the narrow entrance like a flood, and quickly dispersed to various areas. The venue that seemed large and empty just now was filled up in an instant. The noise seemed to be about to overturn the ceiling.
Cheering, screaming, blowing horns and whistles, calling friends... Xu Weiwei felt the temperature in the stadium rise. The only scene that could compare to this was the Spring Festival travel rush.
Sitting down was not the end of the event, there was a competition going on on the stage, and fans of various groups were also competing with each other below the stage. Xu Weiwei saw some people hanging banners, some playing drums, and some passing out tifo boards, which occupied a full quarter of the area.
Kane pointed at the fans and explained to Xu Weiwei, "The ones wearing red flame clothes are fans of the WA club, the orange ones are the Super Me support color, and the ones waving black flags are the ones supporting Heizi. Heizi is also my favorite club, and the players in it are very strong. They have won five consecutive championships before, and they are still the favorites to win this time."
When talking about his favorite club, Kane became excited, with pride shining in his eyes.
"Really? I'm so looking forward to it." Xu Weiwei also became excited after listening to Kane's description.
"Whose company is that guy wearing white and sending out tifo boards?"
"Them?" Kane's expression suddenly turned disgusted. "The Daydreamers."
"Ah?" Xu blinked slightly. "Really? How can there be a club with this name?"
Kane sighed, "It's fake. The original name of their club was 'Dream Chasers'. 'Daydreamer' is the nickname we gave him. Because their behavior is quite despicable."
"There are countless violations, and the marketing is worth two. Let's take the most disgusting one. There is a mandatory action in the game to surrender, which is to put the right hand on the heart. When this action occurs, the attacking party must stop the attack immediately, the game ends, and the winner is automatic."
"One of their players was about to put his hands up when he was fighting against the Kagome family. Everyone thought he was going to surrender, including his opponent. But he suddenly attacked and seriously injured his unprepared opponent."
Xu frowned slightly.
"You're really angry, right? But it's still within the rules, there's no way to complain. There have been several drug scandals, but every time the tests found nothing wrong, I wonder if they gave bribes to the organizers..."
