One hundred and twenty-eighth, temptation
"That's a lot of people." The letter looked around.
"Of course, be quiet and the meeting will begin." Iron Armor said a word, and then stopped talking.
The letter was about to ask what was going to start, but the hall lights went out. Then the spotlight shone on one person.
That person was the old man who received the letter and the others.
"I am Mr. Teng, welcome you to participate in this auction and gladiatorial fight, and I extend my greetings on behalf of Kowloon." After the old man finished speaking, he bowed slightly.
"Next, I will explain the rules to everyone, and this auction will be held separately from the gladiatorial fight. The auction hall is fighting for chips, and the gladiatorial fight is about everyone's strength. It lasts for five days, and you will be dropped off back to the cruise ship afterwards. β
"As for the prize, please allow the old man to make a mystery, but it will definitely exceed everyone's expectations. Now please have a feast. β
The lights went out again, and the hall lights returned to their normal normal. The originally empty table was already set up with food.
Xin saw Li Xue clenching her fists and felt the excitement in her heart. But looking at the others, it would be nice to have a receipt this time.
Looking at the food on the table, no one had the idea of moving chopsticks, and I couldn't help but snore. The letter can only be the first person to start the heart.
"Which one starts first?" Shin moved his mask up slightly to reveal his mouth.
"It's not clear." Li Xue shook her head.
Some people had already begun to leave, and they could only go to their lodgings under the guidance of the maids.
After a few bites, he stopped eating for no other reason: it was cold.
Then he looked around to see if he could see the little girl, but in the end it ended in regret.
"Let's go too, we should meet again when the time comes." Li Xue stood up and prepared to leave.
"Now can you tell me what I'm going to do and what the benefits are?" Xin looked at Li Xue and asked.
But Li Xue paused, sighed and said: "I thought I would have a chance, but seeing that there are so many people this time, I feel that there is little hope." β
"Well, you have to have some faith."
Li Xue was silent for a while again: "You're right, I'll fight for it." When the time comes, you may be asked to participate in a gladiatorial fight. β
"Minor problem." Xin is still a little confident in his own strength, and it should be okay to win a game.
Finally the three of them parted and followed the maid to their new quarters.
"Changed places?" The letter was a little surprised.
"Yes sir, where is it just a temporary place." The maid has one answer and one answer, and does not say much.
"Excuse me, do you know that there is a little girl in a red kimono with a white mask?"
"I don't know, sir, maybe it's the daughter of some adult." The maid voiced her guess.
Believe it or not, it's certainly not like that. But I didn't have too many ideas, anyway, I just stayed for a few days, just out of curiosity.
"When does that start?"
"Maybe soon, maybe until morning. It all depends on the decision of the higher-ups. Okay sir, your accommodation has arrived, please feel free to call us if you have any questions. The maid bowed to the letter and left.
"It seems that it is better to stop in other people's territory."
According to the habit, I checked the room, and the facilities here are a little more complete, except for the daily ones, and a fixed terminal is also included.
There is nothing to do but open the terminal and do your homework. He needs to understand this "Kowloon".
And the above can also find all kinds of news about "Kowloon", of course, I know that it is one-sided, which can't help but make people a little disappointed.
So the letter went to rest.
In Kowloon's control center, the highest hall, several people in different costumes wearing different types of ghost faces are gathered around a round table.
The middle of the round table is empty, but there is a four-sided projection screen on which are representations of all outsiders.
"The people in room 77 just searched for information about Kowloon, and there is no biological data to match, so it is judged to be the first time to log in."
"The two people related to him, the people in rooms 13 and 54 have not moved, and they have found matching biological information."
"Keep an eye on 77 and investigate his personal information." A fair woman wearing a red cheongsam and a black ghost mask said.
"Yes, start investigating. Mercenary, codenamed Thunder. β
"Registration time."
ββ¦β¦ Yesterday. β
"Is there any other information?"
"Nope."
"That's strange, isn't it just a mercenary who belongs to any force?" A young man in a white practice uniform and a red demon mask said.
"If not, then he is the man of the redeemer." Said a man in a samurai suit and a ghoul mask.
"Not impossible." The ghost replied.
"So what do we do?" The demon wondered.
The crowd fell silent.
Then a maid behind the ghost whispered in her ear, raising the eyebrows of the woman under the ghost's mask.
"Any questions?" The ghoul asked.
"Rakshasa has been in contact with this person." The fierce ghosts have nothing to hide.
"What?! You didn't take a fancy to her! The ghoul accused.
"It's our negligence, and you don't know the strength of the Rakshasa Ghost." The fierce ghost said without being salty.
"Okay, don't be impatient." The demon tried to persuade the two.
"Humph! I'll report this to Tenki-sama. "The ghoul people don't want to pass up the opportunity to target the fierce ghosts.
The demon sighed, "Why bother. What to do next. β
"If it's really the redeemer, maybe you can get the cooperation." The Devil proposes.
"I'm okay with that." The ghoul calmed down.
"Then I'll put it to the test." The demon stood up and took his leave.
"Be careful."
"εγγγΎγγγ (I see)"
"6:00" in the morning.
Shin had gotten up early, rested well at night, and his fatigue was swept away.
"Knock knock."
"Sir, breakfast is ready."
A male voice came to mind outside, which made the letter a little strange, is there still a man in the waiter?
"I see, right away." Arrange the instrument and put on the mask.
At the door stood a young man wearing a white practice uniform and a demon mask, who looked like an extraordinary person.
"Oh, I'm here to receive Mr. today." The demon bowed slightly.
"I'm tired." The letter nodded.
"Since this is the first time for the gentleman, we need to put together some information."
Despite wearing a mask, Shin saw smiling eyes.
"Do you need it?" Because after all, I haven't been here, and I don't know a lot of things, so I can only ask rhetorically.
"It doesn't need to be complicated, just a few questions that my husband needs to answer verbally." The demon still said politely.
"You ask, answer as much as I can."
"Then we'll talk as we go." The demon made a "please" motion.
"Where is the gentleman?"
"I'm a wanderer."
"Is it convenient to reveal your real name and age?"
Letter, 26. Do you want to check your account? β
"Ahem, don't mind, go through a procedure. That's it, thank you for your cooperation. Turn left in front and you'll get to the restaurant, and I won't send you. β
"Then you go slowly." The letter gave the other party a deep look. Although he knew that the other party had come to him for a purpose, he still couldn't guess what he was going to do.
"I don't want to, it's a big deal to jump into the sea directly, and I can go anyway." Shin touched the jewel on his chest, then tucked it into his clothes.
β¦β¦
"How's the tentative?" Seeing the evil ghost returning, the ghoul couldn't help but ask.
"I only asked a few basic questions, and I didn't dare to say more, this person is not simpler than I imagined."
"Let's talk about the process." The fierce ghost said.
After listening to the demon's description, the ghoul wanted to smoke him.
That's it?
"This information should all be accurate. But ......" the fierce ghost rubbed his temples with some amusement.
"Then next time you go, I don't really want to come into contact with this person." Demons spread their hands.
"Reason."
"This guy is kind of scary."
"Horror?" The ghost was puzzled.
"Don't be angry when you say it, I think it's very similar to a rakshasa. It's the kind of person who has the devil in his heart. β
The ghouls and fierce ghosts didn't speak, they still trusted the demons, but they needed to digest them.
"Interesting."
An abrupt voice rang out, and a ghost face appeared on the screen.
"Your Excellency."
The three of them got down on one knee and luggage.
"I'm interested in the guy you're talking about, so let's test the details. I've received news that the land has changed, the sea has gradually changed, and we need information to send out people. β
"Yes!"
Then the screen returns to normal.
"Lord Heavenly Ghost let us tempt, how to tempt?" The demon asked.
"It's definitely the identity and the strength, and the potential for him." The ghoul explained.
"I'd like to think about it." The ghost pondered.
"Let him participate in gladiatorial fights, as long as the prize is good enough, I don't believe he won't be impressed." The demon proposed.
"Agreed."
"Agreed. That's it, I decided to use that for the prize. The ghost said.
"What?"
"Miniature wormhole organizer."
"What! That's a rarity! "The ghoul is excited.
"But in the last level, I decided to let the Rakshasa come. She's been bored for a long time, too. The ghost said.
"Aren't you afraid that she'll get out of control?" The demon's voice trembled.
The fierce ghost didn't speak, obviously still scared.
"It's decided." The ghoul said with a sigh.
"It's the safest way to do it. You can't get a prize if you don't have enough strength, and I believe that Rakshasa can control his emotions. The ghost said, "I'm responsible for what happened." β
The ghoul snorted and walked out.
"Evil ghosts, keep an eye on these outsiders, I don't want some crooked people to have bad ideas."
"Understood."
β¦β¦
Xin and Li Xue finished breakfast and waited for the people of Kowloon to distribute it.
"You've been waiting for a long time, those who want to go to the auction house follow me, and those who want to go to the gladiatorial arena follow him." A tall man in a dragon face pointed to a man in a rat face.
"Let's go to the auction, you go to the gladiatorial fight. If there is a special ore, I would like you to take it for me. The core part of the power of the mecha I studied lacked a safe, stable, and effective energy transmission substance. β
"This kind of rough stone is very rare, I hope it is here."
Hearing Li Xue's explanation, Xin nodded: "Don't worry." β
"If you have something you want, you can fight for it. We'll see you later. β
"See you later."
"Report, the target is separated from the other two, and the destination is the gladiatorial arena." A man in a cloak wearing a wolf's face reports in the shadows.
"Keep watching." Commands came from the headphones.
"Yes."
