Chapter 200: Gambling
Mr. Slim looked at the information in his hand, but asked with some concern in his heart, "What is the origin of this cursed sword, which can be compared to a small city?" ”
Ford explained seriously: "You don't know, the cursed sword is not of such a great value, although this long sword has the ability to weaken the opponent's strength, but it cannot be compared to a small city. Only, you should know. Count Slais has always been known for his alchemy, and is particularly knowledgeable about pharmacology. ”
After getting this cursed sword, the earl of the blood clan didn't know what to think, and he actually used a hundred years to feed many poisons he developed to this cursed sword, and he also specially invited a forging master to re-smelt this cursed sword, and personally blessed the alchemy circle. So, right now, this cursed sword can be called a murder weapon! The entire sword body has become a hotbed of poison, and once you are injured by this long sword when attacking, you will not only be weak, but even more fatally, you will be poisoned in your body. ”
Mr. Slim couldn't help but nodded: "I see, no wonder this undead marquis takes it so seriously." Presumably, what this Rob Royd cultivated was also about the virus ability in terms of toxins. ”
"You're right. I once had someone carefully check the details of this Rob Lloyd. Only then did I know that this Rob Lloyd can be called shit luck. ”
Ford looked disdainful: "He was just an ordinary low-level zombie before. He didn't even have a sense of self, and he was originally wandering in the territory of the undead, inconspicuous. As a result, who would have thought that he somehow found a catacomb, although there were no powerful treasures in it, but there were jars of venom left behind from an unknown age. The headless zombie stupidly opened the venom, and then the whole body was eroded by the venom. ”
"So he really took shit luck, and the venom didn't kill the cells in his body, but fused with him. Completely revamped his body. And it inspired his special abilities. Now this Rob Lloyd is invulnerable, and even uses toxins as his own nourishment, for which he has traveled to remote corners of the parliament. It really made him find the same venom tank. Over the years, this Rob Royd has undergone many evolutionary mutations, and now his strength is already the best among his peers. Otherwise, Gustav, the king of war who held an important position in the undead, would not have taken such good care of him, and even did not hesitate to offend the Count Sleith. ”
"When their gambling game is not good, it has to be at this time." Mr. Slim slammed the documents on the table, "This makes my mission difficult." ”
"Mr. Slim, what kind of mission are you going to do this time?" Ford couldn't help but ask curiously.
Mr. Slim clearly had a lot of trust in this Ford, so he made the main purpose of this time out in 1510. After listening to what Mr. Slime had to say. Ford couldn't help but worry: "yes, in this way, Allen is in a difficult situation at the moment. It's just caught between the two powers. If he loses, Count Slais will definitely not give up if he loses his beloved, and it is very likely that he will have a bad relationship with Allen, and then refuse the introduction. But once Rob Lloyd wins, let's not talk about how dangerous the process is, and whether this cursed sword will fall into Allen's hands. The undead Marquis Gustav certainly won't rest on his laurels. Once he intervened, it became more and more complicated. ”
"It's really tricky." Mr. Slim said after a moment of contemplation. "Now, I need you to help me get a steam-powered car ready for emergencies. When necessary, activate the final contingency plan. ”
As soon as Ford heard this, he said. couldn't help but be stunned: "You mean to activate the emergency plan?" In that case, there are too many people involved and we have too many contact points, and it is very likely that more than half of the dark lines will be lost, which is for us in the Inquisition. It's an incalculable loss. ”
Ford's expression was slightly excited, but Mr. Slim said in a solemn tone: "Even if the dark threads of the entire Inquisition are pulled out within the blood clan, I will not let Alan have an accident." Do you understand what I mean? ”
Look at Mr. Slim's determined and cold eyes. Ford suddenly realized, he couldn't help but stammer a little and said, "Could it be ...... Could it be that Alan is...... It's ......"
Mr. Slim pressed on Ford's shoulder and suffocated the second half of the other party's sentence back into his stomach: "It's good that you know about this matter, don't publicize it to the public, understand?" ”
Feeling the strength of his shoulders, Ford's forehead couldn't help sweating, and he nodded again and again: "Don't worry, I understand." The stakes are so high, I don't dare to talk nonsense even if you lend me eighteen guts. ”
"Okay, do as I say, remember, be careful, wait for the end of the game. Although Allen's current situation is a little difficult, his strength is not weak, and this is also a risky move, as long as we carry the past, Allen will definitely become Count Sleigh's henchman, and at that time, a mere referral will naturally not be a problem. ”
Ford sent Mr. Slim out of the yard, and then connected with the beginning of the fire, and for a moment the whole Hesse castle was in turmoil, quietly waiting for the outcome of the game.
The reason why the bloody gladiatorial tournament was arranged for three days was to free up the middle day for the winners of the preliminary round to rest and recuperate. Between the Blood, Wolves, and the Undead, powerful recovery abilities and unpredictable recovery methods. The eight winners are the best of the many contestants, and naturally one day is enough time for them to complete their conditioning and achieve the best fighting condition.
And on the final day, it was also the most cruel test. Eight players will be divided into groups of twos and will not die. The four winning competitors were divided into groups again, and so on, without the slightest interval between battles, until one of them was still standing in the gladiatorial arena, and he was the winner of the tournament.
However, due to Rob Lloyd's sudden disruption this year, the schedule of the tournament had to be adjusted accordingly. After the final day, with a three-day break for the tournament winners, Rob Lloyd showed the demeanor of a young powerhouse and disdained to take advantage of them. This made Srice impressed, and his prejudice against this Robo-Roth was slightly better.
Alan had been in the house all morning, and his physical injuries had long since healed. Mr. Rislief had told Alan everything he had known the previous night, and then gave him the details of Rob Lloyd. Alan read Rob Lloyd's information many times overnight before he knew it by heart. However, if you don't use the power of the virus in battle, it will be difficult to defeat the opponent. This is also what worries Allen the most!
Just as Alan was trying to think about what to do, a knock suddenly came to mind outside the door. Alan couldn't help but secretly curse himself for being careless, and at this time, he actually ignored the surrounding realm. He put the information away, and his eyes penetrated the door, which didn't matter, Alan couldn't help but be a little surprised, outside the door was actually Count Slais's butler, Numa.
Alan looked around at Zhou Zhou, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong in the room, he opened the door with his face open, and then pretended to be surprised and said, "Lord Numa, please come in, please come in!" ”
Alan respectfully stepped out of the way and let the butler Numa into the house.
"I'm here to visit you on behalf of the Earl, how are your injuries? Looks like it's no big deal, right? Numa looked at Alan and said.
"I've basically recovered, and it will definitely not affect tomorrow's game." Alan said pretending to be reserved.
"Don't be nervous, just treat today as a private conversation between us." Numa said as she opened a briefcase, then took out a stack of documents and put it on the table, and then pushed it in front of Alan.
"What is this?" Alan was curious and opened the information and looked at it carefully.
"Here's some of the information I've gathered privately, including the seven opponents you're going to face tomorrow. The last one is the final opponent you will have to face after you win the championship trophy - Rob Lloyd. A smile appeared on Numa's face, and then he said earnestly, "East, Lord Earl has high hopes for you, although I have privately forwarded this information to you, but how dare I be so bold without Lord Earl's approval." It can be seen that the Earl is very optimistic about you. ”
"Thank you, Lord Earl and your kindness, East will definitely go all out and strive for the championship." Alan stood up and hurriedly showed his loyalty.
"Come on, come on, sit down, sit down!" Nu Ma pressed Alan on the chair, and then his eyes scanned the surroundings, his sensitive ears couldn't help but move, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal around, he couldn't help but lower his voice and asked, "East, it's just you and me today." I'll tell you the truth. Lord Earl attaches great importance to his cursed sword, and the reason why he took it out as a reward for the competition was also forced by the situation. The old man of the undead clan was so powerful that he even overwhelmed the Earl. Therefore, the Earl could only come up with such a compromise. The power of the cursed sword is amazing, if it falls into the hands of Robroyd, then with the special ability of the other party, it will definitely become a strong undead in the near future. This is something that the Earl, and indeed the entire Bloodline, don't want to see. ”
"The Earl's meaning is simple, as long as you win this game. The Lord Earl will accept you as a member of the clan and promote you to the rank of guest of the clan on the premise of keeping your surname. At that time, you can only mention any of your requests, but this cursed sword still needs to be returned to the Earl. ”
Alan stood up again and bowed: "Thank you, Lord Earl, for your kindness. The cursed sword is a beloved thing of the Earl's heart, and I naturally dare not think about it. But I do have one thing to ask for! ”
Numa smiled and nodded: "Let's talk about it." ”
"I would like to ask the Earl to be my introducer, so that I may have the opportunity to participate in the marriage decree of the Grand Duchess!" (To be continued.) )
