Chapter 166: The God of the Hammer
"Well, then...... What is the name of the Shirai cat? ”
"Oh, oh, this lady," Su Man, who was dressed in a white robe, stood on the table, and only traces of an exaggerated smile could be seen on his ordinary face. "You know, such a problem is not allowed. It can only be a question related to both of you, although Su Man also wants to help my compatriots, but in this case, this occasion is meaningless, is it? ”
"Okay," the woman in glasses was silent for a moment, looked at the girl with a cold face on her arms, and said, "Why did you push Lally into the sea the last time we fished in a competition?" ”
"What? Did she do it?! ”
Opposite Qiu Xuan, a wheat-skinned man who was also in the outer circle shouted in surprise, seemingly familiar to the executioner named Lalaire.
"Shhhh Su Man booed him, and the man stopped for a while, only to react and stared at the short-haired girl with a pair of dim eyes.
Girl: "He's in my way, so I'll kill him, the easiest way." ”
The man crushed the ceramic teacup in his hand.
"Congratulations to the superior! So now, the ring is on! ”
As the high platform slowly rose from the clearing of the restaurant, Su Man clapped his hands exaggerated and laughed. The aboriginal madman, who kept saying that he wanted to give his "countrymen" the right to resist competition, was so excited and fanatical when he saw it that it was not at all what he had claimed.
The woman with glasses swallowed, and a second before stepping into the ring, she turned around and asked, "How do you win?" ”
"As long as you can't stand up three seconds down after your opponent falls to the ground, of course, if you shout defeat, it also counts. Su Man is optimistic about you, come on! ”
The short-haired girl didn't say a word of nonsense with a solemn expression throughout the whole process, she jumped onto the stage with one hand, pulled out the curved scimitar that Qiu Xuan was quite familiar with, and said coldly: "Let's start." ”
"Come on Xiaoyi, avenge Lalaire!" The wheat-skinned man from before she stopped the glasses woman before she came on stage, quickly and covertly shoved something into her hand, and then patted her shoulder and whispered.
"I do my best."
Xiao Yi took a deep breath. "Come on Ruiyi, I once met your sister in the pure white proving ground, I wonder if you are as strong as her. But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that you killed Lralaire, and I will write down this feud first. ”
Qiu Xuan touched her chin, it turned out that Xiaoyi didn't choose her because she was easy to fight, but she had already made a feud. However, it seems that the two sisters have not been together in the Proving Ground, and it can be said that they would be able to recognize them if they appeared on the ship, but Qiu Xuan did not see the shadow of her sister Rena among the executioners gathered.
"In that case, let's kill you all together."
Ruiyi had a cold face and didn't say a word, and he killed it with a scimitar, Xiaoyi slapped his hands and formed a handprint, and a pillar of fire attacked Ruiyi head-on.
In the face of the rapid attack, the short-haired girl only made an extremely simple action. She raised her arm and held the wide face of the scimitar across her chest, and with a sudden flip of her wrist, the blade made of unknown material directly intercepted the pillar of fire.
Xiao Yi rolled on the spot in a bit of embarrassment to avoid her ability, and the next second, the sharp blade came straight to her vital point mercilessly. She barely held up a wall of fire, and then, with a terrible scream, the blade picked at her sealed wrist, and a bloody palm flew out of the distance.
"Ahh Xiao Yi covered her severed limb and screamed miserably, and at the moment when she saw the tip of the knife poking into her sight, she shouted "I admit defeat!" with the last bit of strength! ”
Ruiyi withdrew the scimitar, looked indifferently at Xiao Yi who was rolling on the ground, and walked back to the team of the "superiors" silently after confirming the hint that his score had arrived.
It seemed that he felt that this battle was over too quickly, and Su Man clapped his hands twice with great pleasure, so he couldn't wait to shout "Next!" ”
It should be in turn according to the ranking order, and Xiaoyi was standing next to Qiu Xuan before, that is, if Qiu Xuan continues to appear in this ranking.
In other words, I don't have a choice. She pursed her lips and continued to watch patiently.
It seems to have learned the lesson of Xiaoyi and Ruiyi's game, and then people's questions focused on abstract and side-kicking questions such as "Do you know where we are similar" or "What do you think are the loopholes in our previous games". Sure enough, the probability of people in the circle answering incorrectly or not answering is greatly increased, and it should be said that it is worthy of the top 50% of people, once someone answers correctly to start the ring competition, then there is a chance that they can win steadily.
The outsiders who were left unturned looked at each other a few times and decided to start asking more abstract questions.
The next one is Guihai, and the newcomer among the unlucky newcomers also happens to be included in the scope of the restaurant.
The young man swallowed his mouth and subconsciously went to find Qiu Xuan's location, and the latter gave him a helpless look. So he wrinkled his face and clumsily climbed into the ring as if he were on a battlefield from which he would never return.
"Uh, I'm going to ...... He. ”
The position where the slightly trembling finger pointed was an inexplicable old Liang.
He's a dumb guy. Qiu Xuan rubbed her temples unbearably and said, "Haven't you seen that this is a personal bonus occasion until now, a stupid person who has nothing to do with the group." Desperately trying to send points to your teammates, you are really a dedicated courier. ”
"What did you say?!" Now Guihai's voice sounded trembling, "I thought the group's words were to take the highest score of the group members and add it, this, this...... Why didn't he say it earlier! ”
"Hurry up rookie." Lao Liang scratched his ears impatiently, "It's too late to say anything now, just hurry up and ask me to put some water for you later." ”
"Uh-huh...... Then, then, when Afu jumped into the sea before, when everyone's situation was unknown, why didn't you, as our team leader, stop her and sneered and scolded her for being a fool? ”
Lao Liang: ......
Qiu Xuan: ......
In the middle of the night, the man with a hideous scar on his face gritted his teeth and jumped out word by word: "I, no, so, said, passed." ”
"The answer is wrong! No points will be awarded to those who are on top of this level! Su Man watched the excitement from the sidelines, and he didn't think it was a matter of time.
“…… Rookie, when the next docking is regrouped, you give me a little care. ”
"No, no, no, I didn't mean to! I just suddenly thought of blurting out, woo sorry sorry......"
So far, there are only five against five left on the field, a total of 10 people. In those teams composed of the superiors, except for the two Hephaestus who no one dared to choose, and the sturdy man who led the team to kill the sirens before, the remaining three Qiu Xuan were not very familiar.
When it was the turn of the penultimate person to choose, he did not hesitate to choose the only one Qiu Xuan was unfamiliar with, so in the end, only she, Qin Jiuyuan, Hephaestus and the strong man were left on the field.
"Hey, boy, do you dare to choose me. Let's have a fair fight, and let me see if you have what it takes to argue with me. ”
When it was Qin Jiuyuan's turn, the sturdy man did not shy away from speaking provocatively, obviously still remembering the challenge to his majesty on the deck.
Qin Jiuyuan sneered. "You're too weak," he said, "and I'll choose my brother over there." ”
"Very good, Odysseus!" The man, known as the caster, strode up, his messily tied braids in a chaotic beauty. "I am deeply touched by your heroic and fearless personal heroism! Although it is a pity that I can't fight my Afu on the battlefield of blood and beauty, I am also willing to give medals to young heroes like you! ”
Qin Jiuyuan said indifferently: "Oh, thank you, I admit defeat......"
Seeing this, the sturdy man snorted coldly. "Really...... Stupid and ignorant to the extreme, he even challenged Hephaestus to silence you for a second. ”
The man's stride forward seemed to pause, he looked back at the man with the pigtails, and said in a deep voice, "What did he just say, what is your name?" ”
"Is that your problem, my indomitable hero Odysseus? Well, I'm Hephaestus, and you can call me Hephaestus the Smith as well. How about it, what did you want to say just now, is it to admit defeat directly? ”
"Hephaestus, Aph, Aphrodite ......" Qin Jiuyuan muttered these two names in a low voice, as if he was about to chew it and swallow it straight into his stomach. Suddenly, he raised his head, and there seemed to be a black mist hidden in his dark pupils that was so pure and thick that it could not be dissolved.
"I'm done with my question," he said, "why don't we just get started?" ”
……
Qiu Xuan and the sturdy man sat cross-legged in the open space on the side, and they had changed from mutual wariness at the beginning to chatting without love now.
“…… So, they're going to fight like this endlessly? Why didn't that madman stop? The sturdy man named Jiao Guancheng stroked his rough short hair irritably, and was speechless. God knows they've been sitting here for a full two hours, and the battlefield that belongs to the two of them is still in a white-hot state, with no end in sight.
"Don't say it, Su Man himself is happy." Qiu Xuan yawned, "I'm really convinced, I don't know which sentence poked them at the g-spot, didn't they all admit defeat." ”
"I guess it's Hephaestus." Jiao Guancheng's rugged face was full of gossip at this time, and he couldn't tell that it was the decisive leader before.
"Which one?"
"You don't know? Legend has it that after Zeus's failed courtship, he married Aphrodite to Hephaestus, the lame god of fire and craftsmen. Although it is not voluntary, it is generally customary to think that Aphrodite, the goddess of love, was the wife of Hephaestus. ”
Qiu Xuan sneered.
"What are you laughing at? Speaking of which, why are you called Afu, isn't that something to do with the caster Heffy as soon as you hear it? ”
"It's just a title, and I didn't think about it that much at the time." Qiu Xuan shook his head as if he didn't want to mention too much, and after looking at the dazzling sword and sword shadow, he finally gave up chatting with Jiao Guancheng about gossip.
"By the way, do you know that very dragging kid, I feel like you have a good relationship."
"Ex-boyfriend."
"Oh! Yes, it must have been because he had a bad temper so he broke up. I'll tell you, little sister, this kind of man is unreliable, break up early and get rid of ...... early"
“!”
A sharp dagger grazed Jiao Guancheng's cheek, sinking into the hard wall, and the tail was still trembling slightly. The man in the ring, who was panting slightly from the long high-intensity struggle, tilted his head, said "sorry" without guilt, and then resisted Heffei's hammer with one hand, and fell into an anxious battle again.
Jiao Guancheng: "You see that there is no me&^%@!" #%……”
Qiu Xuan: "By the way, I suddenly remembered, have you heard anything about Leviathan?" ”
"You know that, too?" When it came to survival-related matters, Jiao Guancheng restrained some of his emotions and frowned as if reminiscing. "I'm probably the first to arrive at this trial ground and get on the ship, and at the beginning there were only about two dozen of the ship's executioners, and among them was a priest named Cassandro...... Ahem, sacrifice, sacrifice. ”
The stout man scratched his head, "None of us know if Kasandro is a executioner or a native, because she has been on the ship since before the first of us arrived, and she looks like she knows the ship very well for a long time, and the madmen revere her. But she also has a scorer on her right wrist, so we don't know. ”
"Later, after a storm, the Fool's ship crashed into the reef. All the executioners in the cabin came out to help that day, after all, if the ship sank, everyone would finish playing together. It was then that everyone saw Cassandro kneeling in the midst of the storm, chanting a spell that no one could understand, and it looked as if she had summoned the storm. ”
"Later, according to one of my previous group members, she seemed to see something scaly in the deep sea, but it was too confusing to see clearly. Not...... Later, when the ships first docked to regroup, Cassandro was gone. Yes, I know it's weird, and I know we can't get off the ship, but she's just gone, maybe she's hidden on land in the harbor, or maybe she's been on the ship somewhere...... But who knows, anyway, no matter when Leviathan reincarnates, as long as he can get enough points at that time. ”
Cassandro ...... The scales in the deep sea they saw in that storm, were they Leviathans?
Qiu Xuan touched her chin and began to reorder the clues in her heart, and she heard Su Man's loud cheers over there. She turned around and saw Hephaestus standing beyond the edge of the ring holding his hammer, while Qin Jiuyuan stood on the stage, looking at him condescendingly-
"A craftsman with a hammer does not deserve love."
