Entangled: Crisscross Chapter 14

"Oh, Mr. Feng is from the group category. If you want to challenge him, then you have to challenge his entire group too. You can only have two losses before you are eliminated. However, if one of them loses, then they are immediately eliminated. Are you sure you want to challenge someone from them? Don't you know that they are from Double Dragon?"
"What happens if I win?"
"Then, you qualify for tomorrow's challenges. Listen, the rules state that as long as you have ten consecutive wins you will qualify for the next day. But challenging a group is different. You don't get to rest and have to challenge fight them one after another. Although there are only seven people in one group, winning against them is still equivalent to winning against ten people."
"Then, I will challenge them."
The attendant smiled. "I understand. Let me arrange it for you." He typed on his laptop and immediately informed her that it would start thirty minutes later. He then went to inform Feng Xiaotan that he and his group had been challenged.
Soon, everyone in the vicinity immediately knew that someone was brave enough to challenge the Double Dragon. Moreover, it was an individual! One person against a group of experienced CTF players! Isn't that too much?
Sera calmly sat while listening to the various opinions of other players that are gossiping behind her. None of them knew that she was the 'crazy' one who challenged the entire team. Of course, Sera had her own reasons for doing this.
She wasn't the type to wait for other people to scheme against her. For Sera, it is better to challenge them first before they could even make plans against her. Moreover, fighting against seven people can be a bit tiring. This is why she chose to challenge them before someone else will challenge her.

"Hey, Hey!"
Sera's thoughts were interrupted when Manjun suddenly approached her. "What are you doing?"
"Come… come… follow me. I want to talk to you." The man said while pulling her towards space with lesser people. "Did you — Were you the — "
"Hm?"
"Did you challenge the Double Dragon?"
"Yes."
"Ah? I just went to the toilet and when I came back you already challenged them? This… Are you sure you haven't heard of them before? Ah, I get it… are you trying to see if they are really good? I heard they were the champions in the citywide competition before. So… "
"Hey, Manjun…"
"Hm?"
"Can you summarize your thoughts into ten words? This is a challenging task, and few people can do it. But I think you have the skills, right?"
"What? Of course! I can do that!" Manjun beamed.
"Good. As expected of brother Manjun." Sera nodded. After a few more minutes, they announced Sera and Double Dragon's competition.
"Alright, I know it's hard to beat them." Manjun gulped as he tried to count his words. "But it's alright to lose!"
"…" Sera just nodded. What kind of good luck words was that? Sera smiled and walked towards the stage where the computers were located. Then she got her own keyboard and connected it to the computer.
"Eh? She even had her own keyboard. It seems that Sister Quan's words were right. She studied computer science."
"Of course, her words were right. However, how could she defeat all of us?" The woman in the group rolled her eyes. "If she's lucky, she could defeat you, but I am confident she won't be able to defeat me." The woman sneered while looking at the calm Sera.

"She already has the guts to challenge us. This is already praiseworthy. Just focus on the task. Don't embarrass our name!" The one who spoke was Feng Xiaotan. Actually, the younger people around him were the new recruits. They only joined this competition because he wanted to give them the feel of the real CTF world.
"Brother Feng is right. We should use her to show our skills in this game! Ah, that's right… why don't we bet? The person who can defeat her in the least amount of time will win?" Another one said. "Of course, Brother Feng is not included since he is the expert here.
"Ah? But she can only lose twice!"
"Then… let's make a request. She needed to fight all of us even if she already lost. How's that?"
"I agree! Go and talk to the committee about it!"
Without even asking Sera, the group already decided that they wanted her to fight all of them even if she already lost twice. When Sera heard this, she only smiled and nodded. How could she miss this opportunity? This group of people was digging their graves. She should help them bury themselves.
After it was already decided, the competition started. It was Sera against the woman named Guan.
"I can defeat her in five minutes," the woman said confidently.
"Sister Guan, individual games are different from the group ones. In this game, you have to attack and defend at the same time. That is pretty difficult. Of course, if your opponent is just a fresh graduate, then that is a different story."
"Alright, Little sister Guan. Remember everything that I told you. Everyone will be given five minutes to prepare, then you can start attacking each other."
After Feng Xiaotan said those words, the attendant also announced the same thing.
"To the right side is number twenty-three, Miss Sera, and the other side is the Double Dragon. Everyone will be given five minutes to familiarize themselves and create some preparations for patching and securing the PC. In these five minutes, they can discover and patched up as many vulnerabilities as possible. After five minutes, they are now allowed to attack their opponents. Miss Sera will be fighting against each of the seven people from the Double Dragon and it was already agreed that Miss Sera won't be eliminated even if she already lost twice. The Double Dragon agreed that she will only be eliminated if she lost against all of them."
The announcer's words surprised everyone. Who would have thought that Double Dragon would be so kind against Sera? They even agreed to an arrangement like this? Of course, some people immediately saw through it and knew that Double Dragon wasn't kind but was looking down on the woman's skills.
They clearly wanted to embarrass her and punish her for challenging them!
"Alright, the five minutes starts now!"
