Chapter One Hundred and One: Numbering the Holy Grail

From the moment William touched him, Liao Qi was very sensitive and called up his attribute panel at the same time.

After that, it didn't come as he expected.

At the bottom of his status bar, after William's palm left, there was an additional "Tracking Mark" logo.

So this is...

It's not enough to mark Erin, do you have to use yourself as backup insurance?

Tut...

Not bad...

Pretty cautious...

It is not difficult for Liao Qi to guess the purpose of the other party's doing.

Of course, what he showed afterwards, from the bottom of his heart, with sincere gratitude, was also true.

Although it doesn't sound very good.

But...

As long as in the ranked battle, no matter which side of the force, the more pressure can be brought to Erin, the more good it will be for himself.

What Liao Qi needs is a weak state under the vampire girl's serious injury before he can have a chance to cancel the "contract".

Although he was very reluctant, seeing a beautiful girl, hurt in front of him.

But compared to having his fate in the hands of others, Liao Qi still hopes to get rid of this shackle.

Deal...

After that, he didn't add a little restriction, and then he took over the battlefield.

Hey?

How does this sound, it's a bit of a cliché script flavor of heroes saving beauty.

The weak chicken family, who has always been unfavored, suddenly burst out with terrifying power at a moment of crisis, bringing hope to the girl in a desperate situation?

Belch...

It doesn't feel quite right, either.

Whether it's uniting Eluna, or letting William's plans be concealed...

It seems that a large part of the reason why Erin will be cornered is also caused by his single-handedness...

So...

What floor are you standing on?

Strange thoughts flashed in his mind, but Liao Qiming's mouth was not idle.

He looked at the two bloods, William and Clond, who were about to turn away after achieving his goal, and stopped them with a loud voice.

"Lord William, please wait a moment."

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

William turned around suspiciously, looking at Liao Qi.

"That, if you can, I don't know if you can take it up, two of you have a little time."

Gratitude is grateful, but after all, the other party still wants to use himself with bad intentions, so he just lets them go, which is not Liao Qi's style.

For some reason, Ellena didn't look for herself at the dinner, but this time, Liao Qi couldn't be in vain.

So, just take the opportunity.

After Liao Qi paused, he asked the two of them a question that had been pressed in his heart for a long time.

"Lord William, in fact, I want to know the rules of this ranked battle, what it is."

"Huh? Don't you know yet? ”

The first to react was Clond.

This young blood clan, looking at Liao Qi's expression was full of surprise.

"I don't know, Erin didn't tell me."

Liao Qi replied in a rather helpless tone.

"Well, I can understand the eldest lady, after all, you've only been here for three days, but more, I guess I'm afraid I'm still worried that once I tell you the rules, it may..."

"Scares you, huh?"

William said lightly.

"Then I don't know, Lord William, can you tell me a little bit here, didn't you just say that we will fight side by side later?"

Liao Qi turned his head and looked in the direction of the young blood clan again.

"Klender, I suppose you don't want to see your teammate a fool who knows nothing, do you?"

"Hmph, I..."

Clond looked at Liao Qi's appearance, and stopped talking.

He actually wanted to tell the stupid human in front of him, whether it was Liao Qi or Erin, they were just their pawns this time.

This kind of superiority, watching the other party being kept in the dark, and not being aware of it, made Klender's heart very itchy.

But unfortunately, William's eyes next to him had already hinted that he couldn't talk much.

Clond had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and swallow back what he wanted to tease and sarcastically.

"The ranking battle, in essence, is actually to fight, representing the numbered holy grail of different rankings."

"Ahem, saint... Grail? ”

"An object embodied by pure magic, which has no purpose in itself, but is unique, and is the only criterion used by the Academy to judge the outcome of a competition."

William glanced at him strangely, why Liao Qi reacted so much to the word "Holy Grail".

But then, he didn't care too much about it, and continued to explain briefly to Liao Qi.

"At the beginning of the game, you will be transferred to a new desert island by the academy using the teleportation array, which is divided into three areas from the outside to the inside."

"Three zones?"

Liao Qi's eyes were thoughtful.

Because of this number, I seem to have seen it somewhere.

William didn't know what Liao Qi was thinking, and he continued:

"Yes, three areas, corresponding to different levels."

"The outermost third district, which is full of the lowest-numbered chalices, is the innermost area, and the innermost first district, which is the highest-numbered chalices."

"And what you have to do is to try your best to get ahead of the other demons, and find the Holy Grail with the smaller the number, the better the ranking."

In William's words, the amount of information is a bit large, and it is completely different from the ranking battle that Liao Qi imagined before.

Because then...

"So, in other words, our purpose is not to defeat the competitors, but to search for a rarer Holy Grail?"

Liao Qi tried to say what he understood.

This time, Clender, who was next to him, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Hmph, do you think that other demons will be so kind to let you go and watch you go to find the Holy Grail?"

"How naïve!"

"Although the rules on the surface seem to be true, everyone knows that the third district is reserved for the lower demon clan, and the first district is reserved for the upper demon clan like our blood clan."

In a very experienced and sophisticated tone, Clond said:

"In the ranked battle, most races will circle a target area and put all their strength on it, which also means that the Holy Grail in this area has been blocked and encircled by them."

"But many times, there will be duplication in the areas demarcated by the ethnic groups, so that the battle is inevitable, once the two sides, or even multiple parties collide, in addition to you life and death..."

"There will be no second outcome!"

Liao Qi didn't pay much attention to Cralender's unfriendly tone.

On the contrary, after the other party's words, he immediately asked with great interest:

"But in this case, there will always be areas that have not been fenced, so as long as you find such a place, won't you be able to avoid fighting?"

It seems that Liao Qi's words are too idiotic.

After rolling his eyes, Crand said angrily:

"Who do you think you are, prophet? The higher the Holy Grail number, the further inward the area, the smaller the area, and then trying to hit the big luck to find this possibility, it is simply a pipe dream! ”

"Daydreaming..."

Liao Qi repeated in a low voice.

After that, he seemed to be amused by the question he had just asked, and Liao Qi said with some inexplicable tone, as if he was agreeing:

"Well, yes."

"This kind of thing, it should..."

"No one thinks they can do it, does they?"

Unconsciously, when it came to Liao Qi at the end, his smile had gradually disappeared, and he was replaced by a slightly frowning brow.
