Chapter Twenty-Four: The Pre-War Dinner
Three days is not a long time, but it is not a short time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
For Ye Kui to improve his strength, three days was too much time. However, for the monsters with super high efficiency and the assistance of witchcraft, it is too late to build a giant gymnasium that can accommodate ten thousand demons.
Look at the giant gymnasium that is nearing completion. Raven's heart was numb with pain, and he stared blankly at the busy little monster below.
At this time, he was completely devoid of the excitement of humiliating the Polar Night Palace on the grounds that his financial resources were stronger than the Polar Night Palace, and when the blueprint of the gymnasium was handed over to him, he almost died.
According to preliminary statistics, the number of spectators in the Purple Cloud Palace and the Polar Night Palace will reach more than 10,000, which is still a fraction of the 10,000, before it was decided to build this 10,000-person gymnasium.
Just as Raven was trying his best to reduce and reduce his expenses, a notice of the new blueprint of the gymnasium was suddenly posted on the side of the Polar Night Palace, and all the facilities in it were available. In addition to the ring required for this competition, there are swimming pools, gymnasiums, yoga rooms, competition rooms, practice rooms, etc., and other equipment and facilities for life entertainment and improving strength.
Now the raven looked dumbfounded, he built it, this money is not spent like this, don't build it, this is not a loss of trust, but it will cause resentment among the people. Now is the time for him and Ye Kui to fight for the hearts of the people, and it is absolutely impossible to lose the hearts of the people because he is reluctant to spend money. So he gritted his teeth and added these equipment to the construction blueprint, and watched the funds leak out one by one, and he realized that he had fallen into the trap set by Ye Kui.
Looking at the gymnasium that was almost built below, it is very magnificent and beautiful, and according to the different attributes of various monsters, there are ordinary seats, there are also rows of branches like grandstands for birds, and glass cylinder stands in the water, etc., these are added later, and there are many modern computer equipment, although the style of the gymnasium is still in accordance with the ancient construction style, but the connotation has been in line with the current human world.
In the eyes of the monsters, these things are all good things and easy to use, but in the eyes of the ravens, they are all money! He was no longer afraid to look at the real list of accounts.
Although the gymnasium has just seen its scale, it is actually only the part of the ring that has been built, and the other gyms and the like have not yet had time to be built, after all, the time is only three days. First solve the ownership problem of the Purple Cloud Palace and the Polar Night Palace, and then talk about anything else.
However, while he was agonizing about the money, his subordinates hurried over to report that the people of the Polar Night Palace had begun to sell tickets for their gambling tournament in the name of the gymnasium builders in the Purple Cloud Palace and the Polar Night Palace, and I heard that they had been sold on the first day, and now that it was the last day, nearly eighty percent of the tickets had been sold.
Hearing the news, the raven finally couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of old blood, feeling that the things he spent money to build, the money was earned by Ye Kui!
What made Raven almost suffer a heart attack was that his military advisor prevented Raven from intercepting the ticket sellers of the Polar Night Palace, the reason was that most of the tickets had already been implemented, and if the ticket sales were stopped at this time and the last two percent of the people were allowed to enter for free, then the person who bought the tickets would definitely be very angry. The person who collects money is the Ziyun Palace, and if they continue to do this, they will definitely arouse public resentment as soon as possible.
In the end, the raven could only break a mouthful of silver teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
The gymnasium is preparing to hold a preliminary completion ceremony, and here in the Polar Night Palace, the backbones of the Polar Night Palace are a little confused.
Because Ye Kui is back.
Ye Kui had returned the afternoon before the game and had appeared in his room without warning. If it weren't for him calling someone to help him find clothes, no one would know that the head of this Extreme Night Palace, Arnold, who had just calculated the more than six hundred and nearly seven hundred-year-old monsters of the Purple Cloud Palace, had returned.
The news of Ye Kui's return spread throughout the upper echelons of the Polar Night Palace for the first time, and the hall was full of people, and Ye Kui had to go down to deal with it.
Ye Kui looked helplessly at the hundred and ten people under the high platform, everyone had a look on their faces that they were determined not to let him play, and they felt a headache. There is another reason for his headache, that is, Fan Zicheng has been passing a sentence to him through the contact of the contract: "You are not allowed to go, you are not allowed to go, you are not allowed to go, you are not allowed to ......"
It's just that his three-inch incorruptible tongue didn't work this time, because the eyes of everyone below had a strong taste of concern, which made his heart warm and he couldn't say cruel words. In the end, he used his skills to escape directly, and only then did he temporarily ask for the harassment of his followers.
At dinner, Ye Kui inevitably sat down with a few of his cronies, and these people also seized the opportunity and secretly ordered his subordinates that if he didn't eat at the dinner table, he was not allowed to bring him food!
So Ye Kui was forcibly caught at the dinner table, and there were two royal guards standing behind him.
I said...... Didn't the Royal Guards come to protect me? Why is it now spying on me? Ye Kui asked weakly.
"These two are not here as pro-guards, but as the young patriarch of the cat demon clan." Chenyuan picked up his rice bowl and began to eat very naturally.
"Hmm...... Then isn't the young patriarch of the cat demon clan now not my personal guard? Ye Kui asked again.
"It's not." Chen Yuan replied, "I am now sitting here as the young patriarch of the cat demon clan and a friend of Ye Kui. ”
"I'm also a friend of Ye Kui." Ruixue, who was sitting next to Chenyuan, also said.
"Hey! Don't look at me. I'm not sitting here as a friend. I'm a doctor, and you're a disobedient patient. Fan Zicheng saw Ye Kui looking at him, and immediately waved his hand. He was wearing a white coat today, but his white coat was hanging on his arms, not properly worn, hanging behind him like a shawl.
Akame took two bites of rice, and suddenly "Hmm! With a sigh, he expressed his presence.
On the other side of the dining table, there were two people, a man and a woman, who seemed to be one or two years older than Fan Zicheng, and their appearance was five or six points similar to Fan Zicheng.
"Oh! I'm here to help my brother, and so is she. The man said and pointed to the woman next to him, who nodded hurriedly.
Ye Kui knew that these two people were Fan Zicheng's brothers and sisters, one was called Fan Ziyu and the other was Fan Ziyuan. I didn't expect Fan Zicheng to call the two of them, is their hospital very idle?
"Hmm...... That...... What are you here for? Ye Kui asked the last person.
This man was a sloppy middle-aged man, wearing a hundred clothes, although very shabby, but very clean, his face was full of stubble, and his hair was a little gray like his hair that had not been taken care of for an unknown number of years, which added many years and vicissitudes to him. And this person is the only complete human being in the Polar Night Palace.
"Huh? Me? I happened to see a doctor in Fanjia Hospital, and you know that I have an old problem with my lumbar spine. happened to bump into Fan Zicheng angrily dragging Fan Ziyu and Fan Ziyuan to run wildly in the corridor, I was also bored, so I came over to take a look, and begged for food by the way. "That's human.
"Get out! Get out of here! You foodie! You haven't done anything with us but eaten! Ye Kui seemed to have found a breakthrough, and as soon as he jumped up, he pulled the sloppy man and wanted to go out.
"Sit down!" Chen Yuan said suddenly, and the two people from the personal guard behind Ye Kui looked apologetic, but they reached out and pressed Ye Kui on the chair, dispelling his idea of wanting to take the man away and run away.
Ye Kui helplessly looked at these people in front of him who couldn't beat and couldn't beat, scolded and didn't take advantage of reason, so he could only eat silently.
This meal was really jammed. While looking at the faces of other people, you have to think of ways to convince these people. Ye Kuigan picked up half a bowl of rice, but he didn't dare to reach out to pick up the vegetables.
After another ten minutes, Ye Kui finally couldn't stand it anymore, put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, cocked his hands, and said angrily: "Say it, what do you want!" Don't play psychological warfare with me! I'm not going to fall for you. ”
Well, as soon as he said this, it means that he has lost the psychological warfare.
At the dinner table, except for the sloppy man who was still eating desperately, the others also slowly put down the dishes and chopsticks in their hands.
"I'll come first!" Fan Zicheng was the first to speak, "Do you know how much the operation half a month ago caused a lot of wear and tear on your own body?" I'll tell you the truth, you won't be able to recover in two months, and this is still the premise that I have always been by your side and recuperated with you every day. It's good now, one person single-handedly takes on the demon king of the demon world plus the two strongest protectors of the demon king! You think you're too comfortable, aren't you? ”
Ye Kui was silent for a while, then suddenly pulled up his sleeves and stretched out his white hand in front of him.
Fan Zicheng paused for a moment, and didn't understand what he meant for a while, but when Ye Kui put his palm up and gently placed it on the table, he immediately understood that this was to let him take the pulse. Fan Zicheng looked at Ye Kui suspiciously, then at the hand in front of him, and finally clasped his hand on Ye Kui's vein.
A minute later......
"Bring the other hand!" Fan Zicheng shouted in disbelief, and Ye Kui obediently changed a hand to him.
Another minute later......
"Impossible! It's impossible! How can this be good? It's not scientific! Fan Zicheng screamed, he jumped up from his position, walked behind Ye Kui, put his hand on his chest, and used his demonic power to feel his physical condition.
After Ye Kui got Fan Zicheng, he turned his head to look at Fan Ziyu and Fan Ziyuan who were sitting next to Fan Zicheng, they also looked at each other, and also ran over to check Ye Kui's pulse. Within two minutes, they were at a loss and didn't know what to say.
Ye Kui directly skipped the middle-aged man who was still eating and drinking, and turned to Akame.
Akame still had that poker face, and it took a while before he said to Ye Kui: "You can't beat it!" ”
After Akame finished speaking, Rui Xue helped him make up for it, "Ye Kui, with your meager demon power, you can be injured against the few white shadow ghosts that Mu Pasen turned out, and you are not the opponent of those old monsters who have cultivated for six or seven hundred years at all, and you must make a pact with them not to use weapons, which is completely self-defeating." ”
Regarding Akame and Ruixue's question, Ye Kui smiled slightly. And just when everyone was defenseless, a huge demonic force suddenly filled the entire dining room, slapping the bodies and nerves of everyone present like a tide.
The two royal guards behind Ye Kui fell directly to the ground, and Akame and Ruixue were almost on their knees, but fortunately they were originally sitting, so they didn't kneel.
The faces of the three brothers and sisters of the Fan family on the side of Chenyuan and Fan changed together, and they also felt that Ye Kui's huge demonic power was completely from themselves, not inspired by anything else. Chenyuan and Fan Zicheng didn't have a 500-year catastrophe, but Ye Kui's coercion was obviously stronger than that of the 500-year monster, which also made the two of them a little unbearable.
Fan Ziyu and Fan Ziyuan have both passed the five-hundred-year tribulation, and they are calm, but they also feel that Ye Kui's strength has a faint tendency to overwhelm the two of them. Could it be that Ye Kui has unknowingly survived the 500-year catastrophe? But such a thing as a catastrophe can't be concealed at all, such a big thunder from the sky can't be seen, when they are blind and deaf in the entire Polar Night Palace?
There was still a person at the dinner table, he finally stopped picking up rice in his hand, and looked at Ye Kui with some stunnedness.
This sloppy uncle, although he was not suppressed by Ye Kui's demonic power, also looked at him with a look of surprise.
Ye Kui's coercion didn't last long, and it was put away in just five or six seconds, although the pressure was gone, but the air was still filled with the smell of demonic power belonging to Ye Kui.
"Arnold! You've broken through 500 years!? How is this possible! "Chenyuan jumped up first, he was about to prepare for the catastrophe, but he was stimulated by Ye Kui, and he almost couldn't bear it, so he attracted heavenly thunder in this building. Fortunately, Ye Kui didn't last long, otherwise he would not have been able to control it.
"Hehe, nothing impossible." Ye Kui finally spoke.
"For three years, my strength has been suppressed for three whole years. Three years ago, my grandfather just passed away, and the cause and effect of the entire night family was directly pressed on me alone, and this pressure was originally a great stimulus to the improvement of my strength, and for three years, I kept taking Ice Heart Grass to suppress my strange disease, and part of the medicinal power of Ice Heart Grass also stimulated my own growth. But my growth has been suppressed by the flower that grows on my chest, so you never feel that I am improving. ”
"Huh? In other words, as soon as you pluck the flowers, your strength will start to soar wildly? That's not either! In three years, it has been cultivated from 17 years to break through 500 years, and there is no thunder tribulation, which is unreasonable! Fan Zicheng made a very exaggerated move.
"I wasn't a 17-year cultivator three years ago, and my grandfather used a special technique to help me hide all the power in my body, and no one could see through it unless I met a master at the Heavenly Master level. And after my grandfather died, I didn't break the seal once, and for me, that seal was one of the memorials that my grandfather left me, so you always thought I was weak. Ye Kui shrugged.
Now everyone didn't know what to say, and looked at each other.
"Regarding that thunder tribulation, although I am cultivating demon power, I am not a monster after all. After the monster cultivates, its lifespan has surged to a level against the sky, so it is not strange to be robbed by thunder. Human cultivators will not be detected by the Heavenly Dao until they reach the concentration of spiritual power at the level of a Heavenly Master, so the first Thunder Tribulation of the Human Race is the Heavenly Master Thunder Tribulation. I haven't reached that level, and I haven't lived to be 500 years old, and the way of heaven can't control me. ”
Ye Kui's words finally solved everyone's doubts.
"Xiao Kui, I didn't expect that I haven't seen you for four years, but you have grown to this point. However, although the demon power you had just now is huge, it is still unstable, and the demon power that has just been promoted cannot be well controlled, so it is really reluctant to deal with those five or six hundred old monsters. The scruffy middle-aged man suddenly spoke.
"Hehe, Uncle Quan, don't worry, I'm not all monsters after all." Ye Kui said meaningfully to the sloppy man.
The sloppy man was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled again, and began to eat his stuff again.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Ye Kui was no longer restrained, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and sandwiched a few chopsticks dishes, this rice finally tasted.
"That'...... Arnold, are you sure tomorrow? Chenyuan still asked worriedly.
"Tomorrow? Well, I'm definitely going to lose tomorrow. It's okay, it's good to win the next two games. Ye Kui didn't care.
"Will you lose?" At this time, everyone was stunned again, they didn't understand what kind of medicine was bought in Ye Kui's gourd.
Ye Kui looked at their confused faces and smiled slightly.
"Tomorrow, they will send the early 600-year-old Elder Crow, the second will be the 500-year-old Elder Qian-Crow, and the last will be the 600-year-old Elder Raven. If they play in that order, I can win. ”
