Chapter 133: A Covenant of Victory and Defeat
Qi Shi and Gao Mingliang stood in front of the crowd.
One of the two was majestic, full of fierce aura, the other was smiling, but there was a palpitating light flashing in his eyes from time to time, these two people alone suppressed the momentum of the guild people, and many guild members looked at the two of them, and it was difficult to hide their nervous expressions.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Pan Zongchang took a step forward and said loudly: "That's right, Ding Jin is dead!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent, followed by an uproar.
Ding Jin, as one of the six giants of the Autonomous Committee, was a ninth-level sword forger himself, and his strength was strong, why did he suddenly die?
In particular, the high-level leaders of the Autonomous Committee and the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce looked at each other for a while.
The failure of the lure operation was enough to surprise them, but they didn't expect that even Ding Jin died.
"Dead? Who killed him?"
Qi Shi's eyes narrowed slightly, and an awe-inspiring aura suddenly appeared on his body.
Pan Zongchang was not afraid and met his gaze without flinching.
However, the other union members did not have such a good psychological quality, and some guild members who knew the process of Ding Jin's death couldn't help but look at Lin Ze when they heard this.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Qi Shi's heart suddenly became clear, and his gaze moved to Lin Ze, and after staring at it for a few seconds, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He naturally knew Lin Ze, and in the two things that Ding Jin sent wanderers to assassinate members of the Knife Forger Guild and obtained a new superior formula with the Knife Forger Guild, he had seen Lin Ze's photos and was quite impressed.
But precisely because of this, he knew that it had been less than a year since Lin Ze started casting knives, and it stands to reason that his strength should not be enough to compete with Ding Jin, so he recklessly killed the latter.
Gao Mingliang on the side also showed an interested look.
Peng Xianxi asked Pan Zongchang in a low voice, and soon understood the whole story, and couldn't help but look at Lin Ze, and the look of surprise on his face flashed.
For a while, the three 'human pillar' knife casters all looked at Lin Ze, and the rest didn't dare to disturb them, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
As the person concerned, Lin Ze was indifferent, his eyes looked directly at Master Qi, his eyes swept over the soul knife on his waist intentionally or unintentionally, and an inexplicable color flashed in his eyes.
Qi Shi's brows suddenly furrowed, and a trace of strangeness surged in his heart, Lin Ze looked at him, always giving him the feeling that he was staring at his prey.
Prey?
As soon as this thought surfaced, Qi Shi felt ridiculous in his heart, he was a 'human pillar' knife caster, who was qualified to take him as a prey?
After a moment of silence, Qi Shi finally broke the silence, he glanced at Lin Ze coldly, and then looked at Peng Xianxi.
"Based on the information we've gotten, you did get injured while hunting the Emperor-level Insect Beast, and you can't go wrong with that, however...... Who healed your injuries?"
Peng Xianxi shook his head and said, "Does it make sense to say this now?"
"Indeed, it doesn't make any sense to say this now. Gao Mingliang took the words and looked at the guild members with a smile, but his tone was full of coldness, "In any case, the fate of the Swordsmith Guild is already doomed! Peng Xianxi, how about you surrender? Or do you think you can defeat the alliance between me and Qi Shi?"
"Whether we can beat you or not, we have to fight to know. Peng Xianxi shook his head and said.
"Why bother? One-on-one may not know the outcome of the outcome, but the Autonomous Committee and the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce have joined forces, and the Swordsmith Guild is definitely not an opponent, so why bother dying?" Gao Mingliang shrugged, "Swordsmith cultivation is not easy, if there are too many casualties, the strength of the settlement area will inevitably drop significantly, I am kind enough to advise you at this point." ”
Pan Zongchang couldn't help but shout: "Since that's the case, you shouldn't provoke a war!"
Gao Mingliang spread his hands and did not respond to Pan Zongchang's question.
In fact, if Peng Xianxi hadn't been seriously injured and unconscious, he and Master Qi would not have had the intention of annexing the Swordsmith Guild, but at the end of the day, they found that Peng Xianxi had been cured, but unfortunately it was difficult to ride a tiger at this time, whether it was him or Master Qi, they would not be willing to give up at this time.
Peng Xianxi waved his hand, signaling Pan Zongchang to retreat, then looked at Gao Mingliang and Qi Shi, and muttered: "You have a sentence that is right, if there are too many casualties among the swordsmiths, it is indeed not a good thing for the settlement, so how about it, the victory or defeat of the Swordsmith Guild and the Autonomous Committee and the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce will be decided between us, no matter what the result is, all members of the other side must accept it unconditionally." ”
Hearing this, Gao Mingliang couldn't help but show a strange look on his face.
"Meaning, you plan to deal with me and Master Qi alone?"
Qi Shi was also a little surprised.
Among the three 'human pillar' knife casters in the Blackstone Settlement, Peng Xianxi was the strongest and ranked first, which the two of them had to admit even if they were unwilling, but even so, it didn't mean that Peng Xianxi could defeat the two of them alone.
Otherwise, the Swordsmith Guild would have annexed the Autonomous Council and the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce a long time ago, how could it have developed to the point where it is today.
Unexpectedly, Peng Xianxi shook his head and said: "Of course not, one-to-two is too unfair to me, I want to find a helper." ”
Hearing this, Qi Shi and Gao Mingliang glanced at each other, and reached a tacit understanding in an instant during eye contact.
"Okay, just as you said, you can find a helper, we are two against two, the losing side must dissolve the organization on the spot, merge into the other party, and no longer provoke war!" Qi Shi said coldly.
There are only three 'human pillar' knife casters in the entire settlement, no matter who Peng Xianxi finds as a helper, they can't change the fate of his defeat, what are they afraid of?
It's better to say that this kind of development is the best, so that they can annex the Swordsmith Guild without breaking their bones.
If they were forced to do so, they didn't want to cause too many casualties, otherwise even if they annexed the Swordsmith Guild, the strength of the Blackstone Settlement would be greatly affected, and they would have to recuperate for more than ten or twenty years before they could recover.
"Okay!" Peng Xian said.
Seeing this, Pan Zongchang and several guild elders were anxious, and couldn't help but take a step forward to persuade them, but they were stopped by Peng Xianxi waving his hand.
After signaling everyone to calm down, he suddenly turned his head to look at Lin Ze and said with a smile: "Little brother Lin Ze, how about doing me a favor?"
Lin Ze was stunned: "What's the hurry?"
"I can't beat the two of them with an old man, how about you go with me later?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned, even Lin Ze had a look of surprise on his face: "Do you think I can defeat the 'Human Pillar' Knife Forger?"
"You don't have to beat, as long as you can hold off Master Qi for ten minutes. Peng Xianxi stepped to Lin Ze's side, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said in a low voice, "Ding Jin is a ninth-level sword caster, and he is a high-level soul sword 'Blood Emperor', but he was easily killed by you, whether it is your true strength, or you have mastered the ability to restrain the 'Blood Emperor', it means that you have at least the strength to fight with Qi Shi, as long as you can hold him back for ten minutes, I will come to help you immediately when I solve Gao Mingliang!"
Lin Ze was really surprised at this moment, he didn't expect Peng Xianxi to be so sharp-minded, and he actually guessed that he had the means to restrain the 'Blood Emperor', but what surprised him even more was that listening to Peng Xianxi's words, he seemed to be sure to defeat Gao Mingliang within ten minutes.
As if seeing his doubts, Peng Xianxi said solemnly: "You should also know that my soul knife is 'Skyrim', strictly speaking, it is a restrained and good 'god', plus my strength is already stronger than him, to solve him within ten minutes, not to mention full certainty, ninety percent is still there!"
"And as long as Gao Mingliang is defeated, with Master Qi's cautious temperament, he will definitely not fight with us again, most likely he will seek reconciliation, and the crisis will naturally be solved at that time!"
"I know that this matter is extremely dangerous for you, but for the sake of the life and death of the Swordsmith Guild, I can only ask you!" Peng Xianxi said in a sincere tone.
Lin Ze glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and then nodded heavily: "I promise you, but afterwards I want all the spirit stones of the Autonomous Committee and the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce!"
"Deal!"
Peng Xianxi responded without hesitation.
Although the Spirit Relief Stone is precious, it is insignificant compared to the survival of the Swordsmith Guild.
What's more, if it can survive today's crisis, the Swordsmith Guild will not only survive, but also swallow up the enemy's power and further grow, which is far more important than a few spirit stones.
The two talked in a low voice for a long time, and Master Qi's patience gradually lost and said coldly: "Have you discussed it?"
Gao Mingliang smiled slightly, with a hint of banter in his smile.
It seems that Peng Xianxi is really helpless, and he actually put down his body to persuade a hairy boy to join forces, could it be that he thinks that he can defeat the two 'human pillar' knife casters in this way?
How ridiculous!
When the words fell, Peng Xianxi had already raised his head, and said indifferently to Qi Shi and Gao Mingliang: "The battle in the settlement area is too damaging, how about going to the wilderness?"
"Good!"
"I'm fine!"
Qi Shi and Gao Mingliang nodded at the same time, but even though there was no movement, their eyes looked directly at Peng Xianxi.
Just when Lin Ze was secretly wondering, Peng Xianxi's deep words came from beside him:
"Across the distance, Skyrim!"
But it was directly liberated the soul knife on the spot.
He was slightly stunned, turned his head to look, and happened to meet Peng Xianxi's gaze, who smiled slightly, and said, "Lin Ze, relax, we are going to transfer the venue." ”
Lin Ze was still thinking about what this sentence meant, and the next second, he felt a flower in front of him, and when he came back to his senses, he was stunned to find that he was no longer in front of the guild department, but in the vast wilderness.
“...... I see, it's Skyrim's ability to manipulate distance. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Ze suddenly realized.
"Then, Master Qi will be handed over to you, please!"
On his side, Peng Xianxi said solemnly, and then the figure disappeared suddenly, and even Gao Mingliang, who was not far away, suddenly disappeared in place.
"I see, Peng Xianxi is using this idea to let you drag me down, and I will free my hands to solve Gao Mingliang first!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, the ridicule and sneer on Qi Shi's face flashed away, and he squinted at Lin Ze, his eyes were full of cold murderous intent.
"But where did he get the confidence that you could hold up under me until that time?"
