Chapter 51: Dragon Landing Castle
Shande, on the other hand, laughs out loud after seeing Nia's actions.
"Ho ho ho ho ...... You're such a petite and lovely girl, you're a guard! Your master is so funny!"
Shande's words are full of sarcasm, and he mocks Cross for needing the protection of a young girl at such a moment.
Cross ignored Shande's taunts, in his eyes, Shander was nothing more than a weakling, and a weak person without self-knowledge, such a person was just a joke.
Shande, it's not terrible.
What really made Cross feel dangerous was the female escort beside Xander.
The female guard was an extraordinary figure, and as long as she stood there, she would bring a kind of mental oppression.
It was this feeling that made Cross understand that he was in a very bad situation.
He had a hunch that even if he used all his strength, he might not be able to defeat the female guard, and even escaping from her eyes would be a problem.
Cross suddenly regretted that his original plan had taken an unforeseen turn.
In the face of Cross's silence, Shander couldn't help but speak again, "What are you thinking about the adopted son of Count Thor Crane? Hurry up and put forward what you want, if I can give it, then hurry up and let the competition begin." ”
Shander mentioned the word again, Cross was a little helpless, in his opinion, even if he wins, he may not really get the other party's bet, what is the point of such a bet?
"If I win, will I really get the bet you offered?"
"Of course. Sander squinted at Cross arrogantly, "The premise is that you win." ”
"But there are only five of us here, three of you and two of us.
If you want to gamble, should there be a neutral party? Otherwise, what will you do if you lose?"
"How could we possibly lose!" Shande's confident voice echoed in the empty Dragon Landing Castle, he did have considerable confidence in the strength of the female guard.
However, Cross caught a strange little gesture from Shande, and when Shander finished saying this, he secretly glanced at the female guard next to him, and there was timidity, fear, and consent in that look.
At this time, Cross thought of one of Sander's previous actions, and he suddenly had an astonishing guess in his heart - the real owner of this place was not Sander!
To confirm this, Cross slammed his greatsword into the ground, sparks erupted as the metal hit the ground, and a loud crash echoed around him.
Cross said in a stern tone, "Are you too conceited? ”
Sure enough, Shande shrank back into the chair as he had done before, and then secretly looked at the female guard beside him.
"Your Excellency Cross Klein, rest assured, we will abide by the bet, and we are willing to lose. The female guard, who had been silent, finally spoke, her voice was calm and peaceful, and such a voice would be immediately believed by ordinary people.
But Cross is no ordinary person, "It's not enough to just talk about it." ”
"Your Excellency Cross Klein is right. The female guard pulled out a bag from behind her and threw it at Cross, "There are 50 gold dragon coins in here, and if we cheat, you can leave with them." ”
Cross opened it and saw that it was indeed the highest level of the empire's universal currency, the Golden Dragon Coins. This money does not play a role in Copper Mountain Town, because there is nothing to buy in Copper Mountain Town.
In Tongshan Town, Golden Dragon Coins are not as good as food, but in Sunset City, you can buy many, many things!
Clos could even buy all the slaves here, and there were a few left.
The female guard's move really reassured Cross a lot, and he could make a request.
"I want you. ”
"I'm sorry, but the three of us can't make a bet. "It's still the female guard who replied,
"Isn't that fair, why are the two being asked to make a bet?"
"Your Excellency, there is no injustice, you are just civilians, and we all have important positions in Sunset City. ”
"Oh, then I'm going to tell you one thing now, I'm the lord of Coppermountain, and Nia is my guard. ”
After hearing this, Shande did not hide the surprise on his face, although he had not fully recovered from the tremor just now, but he still exuded anger, "Boy, what are you talking nonsense! Tongshan Town has always belonged to Sunset City, where did the lord come from!"
For Shande, the false lord of Sunset City, Cross had no reason to continue to be respectful, he looked at Shander coldly, and said clearly word by word, "If I want, I can also become the lord of Sunset City." ”
Xander's body began to tremble again.
"Lord Cross, I believe what you say. In that case, I can indeed make a bet on me. If there are no other doubts, let's get started. ”
Cross was just trying to see what he really wanted was Reiner and some of the artisans of Sunset City, but he didn't plan to say what he really wanted, because he wasn't sure he could win, and if he was lucky enough to win, he would be able to get far more than he originally wanted.
"Okay, let's get started. ”
"Please follow me, Lord Cross. ”
Cross was about to step forward, but Nia grabbed his leather armor, "Lord Cross." ”
Nia's worry Cross saw in his eyes, and he comforted Nia, "Don't worry, I'll be fine, even if I use all my strength, I still have potions." ”
That's when Nia let go of Cross's leather armor.
The two came to the venue of the duel, which is the part of the platform that extends outward, this part is a semicircle, its bottom is empty, and it is about more than 100 meters from here to the ground.
"Lord Cross, this semi-circle is the venue for our duel, and once one of the sides is knocked out of the field or surrenders, the defeat of that side is declared. Are the rules clear?"
"Clear. I still have questions. ”
"Excuse me. ”
"Can you tell me your name?"
"Your Excellency, I'm sorry for that. ”
"It doesn't matter. ......" Cross sighed, "I know you're strong, but I'm just an ordinary human, and I don't have any hope for this showdown, and I might even die in this fight."
Now that I have no way of knowing whose water I died in, should I at least know your race?"
"This ...... All I can say about this is that I'm sorry. However, rest assured, Your Excellency, I will never kill you. ”
"Ugh......" Cross sighed.
