Chapter 123: Full Attack (2)
In a fair game, who can be the ultimate winner depends on who can come out on top in the process. However, if there is some kind of stakes involved in the game, the suspense of victory or defeat will be greatly reduced.
The two major families of Dongfang and Ximen, who are at the top of the class, naturally will not let go of any excellent opportunity to make money. What's more, they know very well the consequences that the words "one to pay a thousand" can cause, isn't this the best opportunity to defeat the Beiwang clan in one fell swoop?
Therefore, when the name of "Xu Nana" topped the odds list, it not only caused a sensation in the casino, but also caused an uproar in the central area.
Of course, this news is a bolt from the blue for the Beiwang family. By the time the lord of Beiwang found out, it was too late to revoke it, and a huge sum of more than 30,000 gold coins had been invested on her, even if they reacted quickly and immediately stopped betting, but the compensation they faced could only be described as "unimaginable".
And no matter what consequences you have to face, no matter what consequences you have to face, if there is an opportunity to make money, they will not let it go no matter what. When they heard the news, they were overjoyed for a while, and without a little discussion between the two families, they tacitly bet more than 100,000 gold coins on her.
Among the four families, only the Nangong family was the most embarrassed, and they also wanted to get a piece of the cake, but who expected, after all, the cake was the future in-laws, and there were still many places to rely on them in the future. Therefore, they can only move, but they dare not move, seeing that there is no money to be made, they don't want to exert much effort.
Because of this, the menacing Twelve Lives Gate was forced to split into two groups.
In order to win the huge indemnity, Dongfang and Ximen immediately issued a "retreat" order to the twelve people they sponsored, and asked several of them to stay on the stone altar and stand by in place, and not to launch any attack on the "golden prey" Xu Nana.
If they could, the two of them still wanted to let those people directly join the ranks of the human wall, protect her life at all costs, and help her win the final "king's seat".
However, although the two of them had this idea, in fact they still did not dare to do it. After all, the controller behind this identity card contest is still Ah Chai, he covers the sky with one hand, controlling the entire pattern of Greedy Town, although the two of them have a certain strength, but in front of him, they don't dare to blatantly make a mistake.
Because if he is displeased, no matter how much money the two of them make, they will not have a good life.
And in order to keep the huge amount of compensation, the Beiwang clan issued a death order to the twelve life candidates funded by their own family in the moment the news came: stop her from going further at all costs, and if necessary, leave no one alive.
It stands to reason that with the strong financial resources of the Beiwang clan, they should not be afraid to pay such a sky-high compensation, because even if they give away all the money, there are countless solid industries to support their clan's survival. And what worries and fears them is those who take advantage of the fire to rob, such as the two families of Dongfang and Simon, who in turn suppress their clan after receiving the reparation.
Money can be earned back when it's gone, but once you lose your status and power, will you easily get it back?
As for the Nangong family, they didn't think about this problem, just because they didn't have much power at all. They could have ignored the Beiwang clan, but because their own power was too weak, they had to obey the Beiwang clan. As a result, the candidates they had sponsored had to stay far away, waiting for the new instructions from the Beiwang clan.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Although Ah Bai has already made things very clear
, but Qiu Qiong still frowned when she heard it.
Suddenly, he suddenly raised his hand, stopped Ah Bai from speaking, and said weakly: "Wait, Ah Bai, are you taking me as an example, or ......"
"Boss ......"
Qiu Qiong and Ah Bai glanced at each other, and this glance was worth a thousand words.
"Well, I just want to know, who is so brainless to bet on me?"
Ah Bai shook his head, "I can't hear this, and I don't know what he's betting on?" But my intuition tells me that this person who is in charge of the game is not simple at all, it is to completely tear apart the superficial harmony of the four major families, and make the current temporarily stable situation appear violently turbulent. At the same time, I guess, he has a more important purpose! β
"What's it?"
"Boss! You don't understand this! He's here to protect you, boss! Ah Hong replied.
Qiu Qiong was stunned, looking incredulous.
"Ah Hong is right, in this identity card competition, life and death are too common, and losing money is always more than winning, so only a very small number of people will choose the identity card competition to bet, let alone a shrewd person like the four major families. The Beiwang family, which is a banker, has a lot of ways for people to invest money, and will never deliberately raise the odds of one of them to attract people into the pit. β
At present, the four major families have their own moves, which also shows that someone has deliberately raised the odds in the recent period. And his choice is not the contestants who are already on the odds list, but a cannon fodder who will not appear on the list at all, that is, the boss of the gold prey. The intention is so obvious that if he wants to put you in a position where everyone will notice, everyone will go crazy because of your name, and of course, I mean everyone who is at the top of the central district. β
"That person must know very well that when countless pairs of invisible hands are stretched out to you, the boss, in this bronze medal tournament, no one can endanger your life. It's just that I can't really figure out who he is...... By the way, boss, do you have any friends with gold medals? The kind that has a good relationship, is willing to put effort into you, and spends a lot of money? β
Qiu Qiong choked up and thought, "Friend with the gold medal, he, is he one?" β
At this moment, Ah Hong suddenly stirred up and laughed: "I know! I know! Nangong Siyuan, the boss's rumored boyfriend! Didn't he come down from the center? People have money and power! It's easy to make high odds! What's more, Beiwang Luoying is still him...... Oops, no......"
Qiu Qiong wanted to refute, saying that she had nothing to do with Nangong Siyuan, and besides, she would not accept any kindness from him. But at the moment when the words "North Wangluo Sakura" just fell, she couldn't help but tremble, and suddenly frowned, her eyes seemed to sway, and she said coldly: "Who is she?" β
Ah Bai raised his eyebrows, as if he smelled a hint of gunpowder.
"She, she, she......" Ah Hong turned her head away in surprise and horror, and replied in a low voice and eagerly, "She is Nangong Siyuan's fiancΓ©e." β
"No, married, wife?!" Qiu Qiong roared, her face suddenly darkened, and she suddenly waved her hand, and the sharp blade swept over everyone, so frightened that they hurriedly squatted down and escaped a catastrophe.
Ah Hong was also so frightened that she shrunk her neck, and said timidly: "That, that...... That was a long time ago...... Nangong Siyuan made a marriage contract with Beiwang Luoying when he was a teenager...... It is agreed that the wedding will be held at the beginning of next year...... Top dog! You can't blame me for that! β
"Humph!" Qiu Qiong put away her sword and muttered, "Since you have a fiancΓ©e, and."
And he's going to get married next year, he's still ...... Man, there is really no one to be trusted! β
Strange to say, she didn't know where the anger in her heart came from.
She was just angry, disgusted, and at the same time, she was very lost and miserable.
"Looking north at Luo Sakura," she thought to herself, "what kind of person is she......
At this moment, the tips of Ah Bai's ears moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Boss, everyone, they have resumed their actions. β
As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately tensed their torsos and raised the weapons in their hands, and the human wall immediately shrank inward by another ten centimeters.
"Rustle...... Rustle......"
The closely connected branches were suddenly stretched out, countless bright green leaves innocently drifted away, and in the darkness, a huge and strong figure gradually came out.
He is more than three meters tall, and the muscles on his body are several times thicker than those of Ah Nu Ah Fu, the red-eyed lion hunter and the iron-footed dog bear, and the biceps alone are as thick as the trunk next to him!
He opened his hands outwards slightly, and the two big trees standing on his left and right were like breaking chopsticks, with a loud "snap", and they ran to both ends!
He has tan skin, is shirtless on his upper body, and wears only a pair of elastic shorts on his lower body; His legs were strong and slender, and the man stood in front of him, his forehead just above his knees; His eight-pack abs, each of which resembles a movable brick, and the pectorals above it are more like two rocks protruding from a cliff; But his arms were shorter and thicker in proportion to his entire body, as if they had been cut off.
His appearance was extremely terrifying, his expression was particularly ferocious, his mouth was slightly open, and his sharp teeth were terrifying to look at.
"He's probably the berserk dragon." Qiu Qiong said lightly.
Ah Bai nodded and responded, "That's right, he is the strongest berserk dragon in the Twelve Lives Sect." As he spoke, he picked up the old notebook and continued, "But he also has a fatal weakness. β
Qiu Qiong was shocked in her heart, and asked urgently, "What weakness?" Say it! β
"He's short-handed."
"What kind of ...... is this?"
Before he could finish speaking, another figure popped out of the jungle.
He held a two-meter-long mechanical scythe, and with a "bang" pestle on the ground, the reflected golden light swept across the earth, almost blinding everyone's eyes!
He was dressed in a pure black cloak, and his face was hidden under the pitch-black hood, so no one could see his eyes, but everyone felt his harsh gaze!
It was as if the gaze was quietly cutting their souls!
He was extremely emaciated, as if beneath his cloak was a fleshless skeleton. And on top of his hood, two large brown antlers were placed on either side, and it is not known whether the antlers were worn by his hat or if they had grown on his head.
"Boss, he's the sickle moose, and he's called the Grim Reaper in this bronze medal tournament."
"And he...... What's the weakness? β
"His weakness is that his scythe only sweeps. But the speed is extremely fast, and people are often cut off by the waist before they can react, and so far, no one has successfully dodged. β
"What a weakness this is! That's the level of your analysis? β
"Boss, you know, their strength is too ...... Ah Hong and I are already nitpicking......"
Qiu Qiong sighed in despair, slowly raised her head, and stared at the violent dragon with empty eyes, for a moment, she couldn't see her future at all.
