Gouster nodded slightly, and then said with a smile: "In the next game, we will lose." So the Mermaid Song can definitely be promoted, and I believe my guild members are also aware of this. However, President Arrow, I am not here to say these words to you this time, not in the hope that you will take pity on me, deliberately lose to me, and then give us a round of water and go straight to the fifth game. I just hope ...... We were able to come to a small deal. ”

Arrow's heart was a little wary, but he just nodded, and then listened to this man.

However, when Dog Ster completely finished talking to Arrow, the wariness in Arrow's eyes gradually turned into admiration.

He looked at the leader of the Warsong Guild, his eyes full of admiration.

A person who always wants to do something for his hometown and wants to get a little more money for his hometown certainly deserves his respect.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Now we are finally in the fourth game of this game! However, if the Warsong Guild can still only show the same level of combat as before without any access to magic items, then this may be their last game! Now the venue has been decided! It's an open space! The decisive venue for the fourth game is an open field! This is a venue that doesn't have any environmental bonuses and relies entirely on hard-hitting to show its combat effectiveness! What kind of combat power can the two sides show on such a playing field? Let's wait and see! ”

"Oh! Before the official start of the match, the leaders of both guilds went to the referee's seat. What's going on? Do they want to make a statement to the referee? ”

"It seems that the referee agreed to some of the demands made by the presidents of both sides. But it doesn't matter, now the game is about to begin! Now the president of the War Song Guild has also stood on the stage of the decisive battle. You know, today is the first time that Warsong Leader has played, and it looks like they already have a new strategy? Now, the race begins! ”

As the referee rang the bell for the start of the game, all the members of the Mermaid Song immediately maintained their formation, looking at the members of the War Song Guild in front of them with a wary expression.

They didn't attack right away, because they were waiting now...... Wait for an "unexpected" battle situation.

Their opponent, the Warsong Guild leader, Gouster, spoke with the only mage in their guild, and after receiving confirmation, the mage's hand reached into the pocket of the equipment item again.

"Huh? What's going on? The Warsong Guild actually took out a magic scroll again? However, if they continue to use magic items, they will be judged as violating the rules and will be disqualified from the competition immediately. ”

It's not just the host who is still confused, but even the audience is now extremely curious about this behavior of the Battle Song Guild.

Their curiosity didn't last long, though, for soon the magician threw the scroll out of his hand again. With a puff of smoke, the power in the magic scroll exploded! In an instant, an earth giant covered in dirt was now standing in front of the mermaid song.

"Oh my God! The Warsong Guild really used the eighth magic item! There is no doubt that they have completely violated the law! This match is over, and the Warsong Guild is disqualified from the competition due to violations, so today's winner is - Mermaid Song! ”

"Huh? Wait a minute, it's not just the eighth magic item, the Warsong Guild still wants to continue?! ”

"Wind elemental, water elemental, thunder elemental, ice elemental, plus the earth elemental that was released just now! Now, the Warsong Guild has summoned five magical elementals! Obviously, this is a big violation! We can imagine that the Mermaid Song must have been waiting for the referee to announce that the game was over. ”

"Strange, why hasn't the referee announced the end of the game yet? …… Ah, I'm sorry, but I got a notice from the referee team. It is very clear that no matter what the fourth game is decided according to the rules, please let both guilds continue to play this game. ”

"Oh my God! It looks like Merfolk Song agrees to this plan! Even though they were sure of victory, they were willing to challenge the Warsong Guild's most powerful configuration! They want to single-handedly defeat the Warsong Guild, which has five magical elementals!! ”

Originally, today's game seemed a bit boring.

After all, there was only one magic scroll left in the War Song Guild, and there was not much suspense about their victory. What's more, they really didn't have a good way to deal with the Mermaid Song in the previous three duels, and the competition process was very boring.

Therefore, there are not many people in the audience, and some of the audience members have even left their seats to buy food and drink, and have even quickly left the audience after seeing through the imminent victory of the mermaid song.

But now, this sudden fierce drug is like a stimulant to every audience present!

Five Magical Elementals!

Under the limits of the rules of the competition, how could an ordinary guild be so extravagant to show such a bold battle with five props in one go?!

But now, for the sake of the last "dignity", the War Song Guild will not hesitate to be directly sentenced to defeat and fight the most famous mermaid song in the entire Hanhai City here. This kind of battle is earned when you see it, and it is simply the most trendy battle that can make people Pengbai!

At that moment, a deafening shout erupted in the entire arena!

Everyone roared and began to huddle into their seats shoulder to shoulder, watching the game in front of them with joy.

Some people, cheering for the mermaid song.

But there are more people who are now cheering for the Battle Song Guild that they know they have failed, but still want to fight at the last minute.

And in the midst of this piece of cheering, this battle ...... That's how it began.

The whole time, Arrow just watched.

He sat quietly and watched as the members of the arena tried their best to deal with what could be called the battle of the strongest enemy.

Watch the members of their guild fight bloodily, and watch them struggle to stall for time and find a solution. Watching them constantly want to bypass these magical elements and directly attack the Warsong Guild members themselves behind them.

It was a very good fight.

It was so exciting that even after a long time had passed, some of the details of the battle would involuntarily come to Airo's mind.

Coco who formed his sea of skulls, Brad who was as strong as a wall, Cream who nimbly shuttled between all the magical elements, Parfay who constantly summoned vines to trap those magical elements, and Margaux who was always trying to heal his companions.

And, of course, the Warsong Guild members who have thrown away all their baggage and are looking forward to the best battle ever.

In this battle, Mermaid Song won and qualified for the quarterfinals.

In this battle, the Mermaid Song lost, losing in the embarrassment that no matter how tenacious he struggled, he was really powerless in the face of such a powerful elemental army.

During the discussion afterwards (harmoniously), Margaux suddenly suggested that there was a light magic that could dispel this magical summon in one go. It's just a pity that Margaux hasn't been able to learn this magic yet. Because this magic is also equivalent to a natural enemy for Coco's undead soldiers.

But while watching the whole game, while being amazed by those powerful magical elements, Arrow was also trying to think about another question-

Why is the village where the Warsong Guild is located so poor?

They're trying to advertise that they have mines where Mana Crystals are available, and that they can easily get a lot of Mana Crystals. Even though the quality of these mana crystals may not be very good, they still have some ability.

But even so, under the huge cost of transportation, it is very likely that what the War Song Guild has worked so hard to promote will not be found in the end.

Powerful magicians who want to crystallize their magic can go to a closer and better quality store to buy it. Even if it costs a lot of money, it is cheaper than spending a few days, or even ten days, or more than a month to go to such a small village to pick up a few pieces for nothing.

So, here's the problem.

Why didn't the empire care about these villages? Even the village chief had to collect the taxes himself, and then personally crossed the mountains and mountains to the town to pay them.

For the Empire, what is the purpose of the existence of these villages, which have no way to escape poverty for various reasons?

Or is it just because they can afford to pay a small amount of taxes that they still nominally rule over these villages?

Arrow didn't know.

He didn't know if what he was thinking about right or wrong right now.

He didn't know if there would be answers to those questions.

After all, for thousands of years, all the countries on the Golden Continent seem to be doing this, and no one will say that this is wrong and needs to be improved.

Maybe......

I really think about all this. And the reason why these villages have no way to get rid of poverty is simply because of fate......

"Congratulations!"

With a clatter, a bottle of wine was uncorked. In an instant, the aroma of the wine is overflowing, and just smelling it will give people a slightly drunken feeling.

Viscount Ruichi was now full of red face, and he had not even drunk a sip of wine, but now he was already staggering with excitement, as if he would faint immediately as long as he had another glass of wine.

The sweet aroma of grapes naturally attracted the four flower fairies who also came to congratulate, led by Rose, who gathered next to the bottle of wine, showing great curiosity.
