Chapter 270: Someone Always Has to Win
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Talisman Bodyguard!
"You want to woo me?" The drunkard asked with a smile.
"That's pretty much what it means." Shen Lei did not deny it.
"It's not that I'm a drunkard boasting, with your kid's current strength, you want me to join your team, your temple is still too small." The drunkard said proudly.
"As you just said, it only took me three years to grow from an unknown person to the scale I am today. If you extrapolate this progress, what will be next? If you join, I think the trajectory will be faster. Shen Lei said seriously.
"With your quasi-king-level strength, if you climb up, you will only be a king-level." The drunkard said lazily.
"What about above the royal rank?" Shen Lei said suddenly.
Hearing this, the drunkard sighed, turned his head to stare at Shen Lei, and his eyes flashed with ghost fire, "You kid, don't you want to be a forbidden god?" ”
"In life, there should always be some lofty pursuits." Shen Lei indirectly admitted it.
The drunkard sneered, "You kid can't be daydreaming, isn't it so easy to be a forbidden god?" The world stage is full of talents, and there are too many geniuses from all walks of life to count, but so far there are only three forbidden gods, do you know what the ratio is? ”
"Someone has to win, why can't it be me?" Shen Lei asked rhetorically.
After staring at Shen Lei for a long time, the drunkard nodded appreciatively, "Okay, it's been a long time since I've seen an iron-headed baby like you." ”
"Then tell me how you plan to become the next forbidden god?" The drunkard squinted his eyes, he still refused to believe that Shen Lei had a chance to become a forbidden god, after all, it was too difficult.
Shen Lei analyzed: "The three forbidden gods currently known are the god of fire in Africa, the god of wind in North America, and the god of water in Europe. They all gained elemental powers, and then established forbidden areas. Therefore, if you want to replicate their success, the key point is to compete for the power of the next element. ”
"I have the most reliable information, the next Thunder Elemental will appear in the Hundred Acts Delta in two years. We have two years to lay out, and when the time comes, we will take down the Thunder Element as quickly as possible. Of course, a fierce battle is inevitable, which is why I strive to become stronger, and at the same time, recruit strong companions like you. Shen Lei said solemnly.
"I helped you, what's the benefit?" The drunkard's drunken and somewhat cloudy eyes flashed with shrewdness.
"It's just a gamble." Shen Lei said.
"Huh?"
"If you win the bet, you are a veteran member of the new forbidden god team, and if you lose the bet, you may give your life." Shen Lei said truthfully.
"It's too risky." The drunkard furrowed his eyebrows.
"The benefits are also huge." Shen Lei smiled.
"It's huge, indeed." The drunkard nodded heavily, and then fell into a long silence, his eyes closed, as if asleep.
"Since you want to become a forbidden god, what is your goal? You can't just go after one name of God, can you? After a long time, the drunkard suddenly asked.
"Conquer this stage and stand on top of the world." Shen Lei stretched out his hand and clenched his fists.
"Ambitious!" The drunkard laughed.
"How?" Shen Lei turned his head to look at him.
"Okay." The drunkard agreed, and quickly changed his tone, "However, I have one condition attached!" ”
"Tell me."
The drunkard licked his lips, "I heard that you have a kind of liquor in Huaxia, which has been passed down for thousands of years, and I have always wanted to drink it." ”
"I've had beer, red wine, and wine, but I've never drunk white wine. If you have the chance, you must bring the most authentic liquor from Huaxia, and I must try it! He had a longing look on his face.
"Deal!" Shen Lei agreed.
……
Seven years later.
Grey skies.
The sea was covered with a thick fog, and visibility was no more than ten meters away.
The 'Mona Lisa' cruise ship sails slowly and cautiously on the sea.
This is the Atlantic!
Shen Lei took a cruise ship, and on the second day of escorting the little princess of the English royal family back to China, he encountered a thick fog that lasted for a long time.
On the deck, Shen Lei and the little princess stood side by side, staring at the dense fog in the distance.
Behind the two, there were dozens of people standing, they were Shen Lei's companions, as well as the little princess's knight team, as well as the captain and first mate, all of whom had the right to speak on the cruise ship.
"Ray, it's time to decide." Voices came from above the crowd.
On the lookout of the cruise ship, a young man codenamed "Fighting Eagle" held a telescope in his hand and looked into the distance, his face gloomy to the extreme.
Everyone was looking at Shen Lei's back.
"Big brother, what should we do?" The little princess beside Shen Lei looked up at him, her eyes full of helplessness.
Shen Lei reached out and touched her head, smiled and said with relief: "Don't be afraid. ”
He turned around and looked at everyone on deck.
"I really didn't expect them to be so vicious!"
"This Atlantic voyage is a trap! They're going to wipe us out! ”
"Let's fight them all!"
"Yes!"
"Fight? How to spell it? What do you fight? The number of people on the other side is far suppressing us, and they chose to do it here, which shows that they have been prepared for a long time, and this is the center of the Atlantic, and there is no place to run! ”
"We have no way out, the big deal is death, and we must not fall into their hands and die in humiliation!"
"It doesn't matter if we die, we must not let the little princess be humiliated! She is a symbol of the royal family of England, and if she falls into the hands of the enemy, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”
"Be sure to keep the little princess!"
The members of the little princess's knight army had a fierce quarrel, and most of them already had the mentality of seeing death as home, but they couldn't accept the humiliation of the little princess.
Shen Lei's companions were much calmer, they didn't say a word, just looked at Shen Lei quietly, waiting for Shen Lei to give orders.
Shen Lei took the princess's little hand, and waited until the knight's personal army was almost arguing before he slowly spoke: "Everyone be quiet and listen to me." ”
The knights' personal army gradually quieted down, and the fighting eagle on the lookout also landed on the deck, protecting Shen Lei and facing everyone on the deck. As Thor's close guard, Fighting Eagle always fulfills his duty.
Shen Lei stretched out his hand and slowly raised it.
Snort!
"Soundwall."
Shen Lei said softly.
In the palm of his hand, a cloud of thunder and lightning quickly gathered, and the snow-white light was shining, making it impossible to look at it directly.
Brush!
A bolt of lightning rushed straight up, and after exceeding the height of the cruise ship, it invisibly dispersed, forming an elliptical encirclement that enveloped the entire cruise ship.
"I've blocked out the eavesdropping." Shen Lei said.
"What's the use of that?" One of the knights couldn't help but ask.
"I have a plan to get this cruise ship out of trouble." Looking around at everyone, Shen Lei said solemnly.
"What?"
"Really?"
"Speak quickly!"
"Thor, you are the most powerful person in this cruise ship, no matter what suggestion you have, we will seriously consider it!"
The knights' pro-soldiers were excited.
"It's complicated, and I'm going to tell you as briefly as possible. The stakes are very high, so please be sure to keep it confidential and do not divulge half a point. Shen Lei said seriously.
