Chapter 119: The Light Chaser (Part 3)
Kuroo returns to his hideout... It turned inside and out of its hideout, and turned the pockets of its clothes inside out.
After checking all the corners that can be turned, Kuroo can declare himself with certainty... Broke!
It's gone, not even a mouse's tooth of money!
Damn it... When is it?
Blacktail scratched the ends of his flaxen hair a little frantically and began to think about when he went bankrupt.
The final conclusion was... After no one bought its laughter potion, Blacktail ran to the arcade and abandoned himself for almost seven days.
In those seven days, it used up all the possessions it had!
Hopeless, Kuroo has only one choice and is to continue back to the arcade underneath the Sewing Gang.
At least it can hide in the crowd, stay in the hideouts and wander the streets, and there is a good chance that it will be caught by the Explorers.
Kuroo, who had made this decision, did not hesitate, and walked directly downstairs quickly, passing several blocks to the tavern under the jurisdiction of the Sewing Gang.
The tavern has seen a lot more visitors lately, most of them coming to the arcade hall underneath the Sewing Gang.
The sewing gang didn't know how much money Kuroo had made in the past seven days, but the arcade machines in the arcade hall alone had expanded from ten to twenty, and then to thirty-seven in the back.
Even Kuroo had heard that there was an arcade in another city where the sewing gang was operating, and Kuroo was sure... These guys have really made their business bigger.
This is also thanks to the addictive nature that comes with arcade machines and Overlord.
Not to mention the game inside, just the energy absorbed when crushing the original spar of the little overlord... I don't know how much better the pleasure it brings than the effect of laughter.
Kuroo walked into the arcade, which was no longer the same as it had been a few days ago, and the people who were playing nearby were all sewing gangs.
The entire arcade hall is mixed with all kinds of characters, and Kuroo, who is only half as tall as others, should be wary of this kind of place.
But I don't know why... Blacktail always thinks that the people around him treat it with respect?
"Found you!"
A cold voice made the hair stand up all over Blacktail's body.
It turned to see the Scales of the Quest Ring standing behind it.
Blacktail didn't know how idle the Quest Society was, and if it remembered correctly, the Scales Ring had been seen in the arcade almost every day since he lost the first day.
"Over here..."
Blacktail didn't have a single game currency on him now, but he still followed the Scale Ring to find an empty "King of Fighters 97" arcade machine and sit down.
The Scale Ring has already taken out a game coin and put it in, just waiting for the Black Tail to put in the coin.
"You don't want to run away, do you?" The Scale Ring said as he glared at Blacktail with cold eyes under his top hat.
"How is that possible! I can beat you with one hand! ”
Blacktail's bad habit was exposed again, that is, he especially likes to taunt when he has no confidence.
The scale ring observed that the ink blot of the black tail was not a coin, and in an instant he guessed what the black tail was hesitating.
"Are you... Don't have money to buy in-game currency, right? The grim voice of the Scales Ring clung to Blacktail's chest like a blade.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Of course I have... Just looking! ”
Kuroo knew that as soon as he confessed, the result would be very likely to be captured by the Detective Society.
"Hey! This guy has no money to buy in-game currency! The Scaly Ring raised his voice, reminding the sewing gang watchers that he was going to take the black tail away.
However, the reminder of the Scale Ring attracted the attention of the onlookers standing behind Blacktail.
"I... I'm going to buy it..."When Blacktail turned around to use this excuse to escape, it found that a wall of people had gathered behind it.
I don't know when half of the people in the arcade were around Kurotail.
Just as Blacktail was about to shout out for them to get out of the way, one of the strong men held a game currency in his hand and handed it to Blacktail.
Before it realized what was happening, there were others around it who did the same.
"I... Can you take it? "The black-tailed fox looked at this group of people suspiciously, the last thing that could happen in this city was to 'help strangers'.
But the group all nodded in unison, so Blacktail tentatively took a small man who looked easier to bully... in-game currency, and then threw it in front of the Scales.
"Prepare to go home!"
Blacktail has absolute confidence in his "The King of Fighters 97", as long as he gives it a chance to live, these guys from the Exploration Club don't want to take it away today.
………………
"Business has been good lately."
Marceau leaned back on a lavish couch and smoked a cigarette in her other hand.
"It won't be long before you're the richest man in the city."
Qiao Xiu controlled the tail of the orange cat and fed the small dried fish into his mouth, while his eyes kept staring at the lazy and enchanting woman lying on the sofa.
If Ciri was present, this kind of scene should directly cover Qiao Xiu's eyes with his hands.
"The richest? What's the use of being rich in this dead city. "Marceau wasn't very impressed by Qiao Xiu's words.
"And what are you going to do with the money?"
Qiao Xiu could hear a sense of despair in her voice.
"Escape the city." Marceau pointed to a painting of a rice paddy field on the wall, saying, "My grandfather and grandmother used to live in the sky... It's a blue world, and I've never seen a blue sky before, so I wanted to see it. ”
"Speaking of which, the sky here is always gray." If Qiao Xiu remembered correctly, the sky of the city had always been shrouded in dark clouds.
"Your words do sound like they're coming from outside the city." Marceau stared at the orange cat crouched on the table and asked, "Can you describe what the outside world is like?" ”
"Why don't you leave now? If you pack your bags and go through the underground passage, tomorrow you will be on your way to the sea and blue sky. Qiao Xiu said.
"Sure enough... Outsiders. Marceau extinguished the cigarette in his hand" The city is sealed, and there is a terrifying magical barrier at the edge of the city, which will quickly wither and die if touched... Quite a few people have tried to leave the city, but they have all become dry bones under the walls. ”
"A giant cage?"
It was quite reasonable for Qiao Xiu to think about it carefully, this could be regarded as a method for the city lord to control the loss of population.
"So we should destroy this filthy city completely!"
An unfamiliar voice rang out outside Marceau's lounge, and she immediately sat up from the couch, and walked outside the door a figure wearing a top hat on crutches.
"Who are you!"
The long silver needle had already appeared at the woman's side, and in the next second, it would instantly pierce the body of the elderly figure.
"I've come here to find someone who has infused this primordial crystal with the power of the gods."
A primordial spar appeared in his hand, and this primordial spar was the little overlord...... Marceau's gaze instantly turned to the orange cat squatting on the table yawning.
