Section 17 Reversal

Alicia glanced at Suzaku's so-called treasure chest containing the Chief's Scepter and said:

“...... In other words, if I don't find anything and just walk over stupidly, will I still lose this game?"

"Of course, this is the hardest part of the president's trial. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Qinglong said as he removed the armor that originally belonged to Talon.

"Whew~" Alicia couldn't help but gasp, if she hadn't found the clue at the last moment, I'm afraid she would have been unable to protect herself. Looking at President Xuanwu, who was standing on the side of the treasure chest with a dangerous smile, she thought that this "treasure chest" was probably also his masterpiece without permission.

"Okay, I've had enough of the boring games with you, can I release my companion now?" she counted the companions around the fake green dragon, and then frowned and asked, "How happened to Daron by you?"

"Okay. After saying that, the green dragon snorted, and Dalong, who was tied up by the hemp rope, was pulled out by two strong men. He had something stuffed in his mouth, and he made a snorting sound as he went, and he couldn't make out what he was saying.

Qinglong gestured again, and a strong man nodded and took the towel from Talon's mouth. After a violent cough, Daron glared at Qinglong viciously and shouted:

"Alicia, don't believe this guy! He's full of lies, and what he says is better than what he sings, and there's a kind of way you let me go now, don't keep playing this kind of indiscriminate tricks!"

Qinglong smiled, shrugged and said:

"Look, how energetic. ”

"That's enough!" Alicia shouted, her momentum was completely different from her before, "I have passed the trial, even if it is the Thieves' Guild, I should fulfill my promise, otherwise, who will dare to do business with you in the future?"

"Then~ If I kill you all here, who knows that our Thieves Guild will not keep its promise?" asked Qinglong with a fierce light in the whites of his eyes.

"You bastard!" Daron yelled in anger that he almost gritted his teeth.

Alicia was silent, and the green dragon watched her quietly, like a jackal looking at a cornered lost lamb.

After a long silence, Alicia sighed and said calmly:

"I know you're not going to do that. ”

Qinglong frowned and said suspiciously:

"What do you mean? Are you saying I don't dare to kill you?"

Alicia shook her head, looked directly into the eyes of the green dragon, and said:

"No, I mean you're not going to give up that bet. ”

“......”

"Before you took part in this so-called game, you said that you are a fraudster and a gambler. You're going to bet with me if I'm going to pass this trial. Alicia said slowly, it was hard to imagine that she could speak in such a steady tone in such a critical situation.

"You said it yourself, and many of your little brothers who were present at the time also heard it, and I think you won't deny it, right?"

Qinglong looked down at the little girl who was much shorter than him, and his expression gradually became serious.

"Although he is a fraudster, he is also a gambler. A fraudster can still lie, but a gambler cannot break a gambling contract, otherwise he will be regarded as a treacherous person. Promises are not the same as lies, you are in a high position in the Thieves' Guild, and the agreements you have made must be obeyed, otherwise, who will be willing to follow you faithfully in the future?" Alicia's eyes were deep, as if she was no longer the yellow-haired girl she used to be.

"Now that I've passed the guild leader's trial, I'm afraid the fact that the entire Thieves Guild will soon be known to everyone. Whether it is for the king or for the official, the things that are set cannot be changed at will. If those above do not keep their promises, those below will not be able to trust their faithfulness with ease. I don't think you, as a branch president, don't you even understand such a simple truth?"

Someone couldn't help laughing, and Dalong looked over and found that the white tiger with his hands on the side of the stone wall was struggling to hide his smile.

"In that case, I beg you to release my companion, return my money, and fulfill your bet!" said Alicia, whose voice was a request, but there was a majesty in her voice that could not be resisted.

The green dragon looked deeply at Alicia in front of him, and silence spread through the air. The candle flame flickered, and time passed quietly with the wind. In the end, Qinglong let out a sigh as if giving up, and said:

"You're right, I'm willing to lose the bet, and I'll release your companion right away. ”

After speaking, Qinglong was about to turn around and signal to his subordinates.

In the distance, Melufa had been looking at Alicia with a worried expression, and only now did she finally feel that she was about to be rescued, and an excited expression began to appear on her face.

"That's not all!" Alicia shouted suddenly, causing the audience to stand still again. I saw Alicia take two steps forward and come to the front of the green dragon, and a pair of eyes seemed to be able to squeeze out the knife.

"The bet was that if I lost, I would take my life, and if I won, I would release my companions. Alicia continued to take a step forward, almost clinging to the body of the green dragon. Anyone could have noticed Alicia's gaze at this time, it was like a lion's gaze staring at its prey.

"But you've also put chips on our tables. You said you'd give me your life if you lost, didn't you?"

The joy on Mei Lufa's face, which had not yet bloomed, suddenly froze. Everyone was surprised, they didn't expect Alicia to be aggressive at this time, and further put pressure on Qinglong, even Alicia herself didn't expect it.

Suzaku, who had been watching coldly, suddenly narrowed her eyes, she quietly glanced to her side with her afterglow, and found that the younger brothers around her were all excited by this sentence, and their faces showed a terrible killing intent, and the weapons in their hands also faintly sounded, and the scene could become out of control at any time. She didn't know what purpose Alicia was trying to take the risk. Now that her companion is still in their hands, she has no weight to put pressure on the Thieves' Guild, unless......

"Hey, what are you talking about?"

The guy in charge of guarding Kyeloa, Melufa, and Zazacha said suddenly. When these words reached Suzaku's ears, she couldn't help but turn her head to look in that direction, only to see Kyeloa hanging her head and closing her eyes, saying something as if talking to herself.

Suzaku was suddenly startled, and the pipe fell off from his hand and fell to the ground, making a clanging sound.

"Shut that wizard's mouth!"

The guard was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly noticed something, and hurriedly raised the knife, but he only raised his hand halfway and stopped in mid-air.

In front of his chest, a dagger was prominently inserted. Faintly, the dagger made Suzaku feel so familiar, and after a moment she realized that it was the weapon she was carrying.

Alicia kept throwing her dagger and smiled meaningfully at Suzaku.

"You girl, when will you ......?"

"I forgot to tell you that this girl used to be your companion too. ”

Seeing the opportunity, Dalong and Zazacha took advantage of everyone's surprise to decisively crash into the guards around them. Daron ran for Alicia, and Zazacha broke free with brute force, shielding both Meluva and Kyloa.

Just then, Kyeloa finished chanting and opened his eyes like a dragon awakened.

"Waterfall!"

A crack opened in the air that connected the other-dimensional world, and the turquoise flood beast roared out of it, overturning the entire underground space in an instant. Wails echoed all around, and the thieves were swept to the ceiling by the raging waves.

Alicia was held tightly by Darron, and her hands were clutching the lapel of the blue dragon. Zazacha guarded the two mages behind him, but the flood seemed to create a vacuum around the chanter, like the eye of a tornado, and Zazacha and the three of them could be safe and sound in this circle.

After a while, the cracks in the other dimension gradually closed like the sleepy eyes of the dreamers. It's like someone closes the water valve, and the waves slowly fade into deeper space.

On the ground, the thief soldiers were on their backs one by one, and Xuanwu was on crutches, his body shaking. His eyes looked like he had a knife in his mouth, and his old face was full of gloom. Suzaku was clinging to her body in a gauzy red dress, revealing her seductive body curves. The wet bangs stuck to her fair and beautiful face, and she looked embarrassed.

The green dragon fell to the ground, grabbed by the hem of Alicia's clothes. The white tiger is nowhere to be found at the moment.

"Be careful!" Mereva's voice shook Alicia's spirit, who had been a little prostrated by the waves. She didn't look behind her back at all, picked up Qinglong's shirt and turned around suddenly.

The tip of the pitch-black dagger hovered in the air, just an inch away from the green dragon's throat.

"Phew!" the white tiger had set his sights on Alicia as early as the flood was falling, waiting for the opportunity to carry out the assassination at the most opportune time, but it ended in failure.

Daron's sword wind shook, and the white tiger had to retreat.

Alicia pulled the green dragon in front of her, drew her sword and held it against his throat, and met the hostile gazes of the other three branch leaders.

"Little girl, there are two hits. Suzaku's tone was indiscernible as mockery or appreciation, and she fiddled with her bangs twice, adjusted into a neat position, and picked up the pipe on the ground. But the cigarette butt is soaked in water and cannot be used without drying.

The younger brothers of the Thieves' Guild were not ordinary people who could participate in this kind of gathering, and although they experienced the beating of the flood and waves, they quickly got up from the ground and began to surround Alicia. Unscathed, Zazacha, Melufa, and Kyloa had gone around Alicia's back earlier, and a tense standoff had formed between the two camps.

Silence spreads, and time seems to stand still.

"Don't move!" Alicia suddenly roared, and the blade in her hand went a few millimeters deep into the flesh of the green dragon, making the green dragon dare not swallow.

"If anyone dares to mess around, I'll immediately let this guy's head fall to the ground. Alicia's gaze swept to the side, and a thief who was silently moving towards her suddenly stopped.

None of these guys present are fuel-efficient lamps, they are proficient in the art of assassination, and Alicia must give her full attention, or she may be in a different place if she is not careful.

"Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!"

A rhythmic voice broke the silence, and the hostage of the green dragon actually applauded.

"Hahaha, it's so much more than I expected. Use your ingenuity to save the day, and you can complete the reversal in an instant...... Okay, I'll keep my bet and you'll win. ”

"What do you mean?" for Alicia, who was highly stressed and focused, nothing was happening now that was enough for her to let her guard down.

"I said I would gamble my life for that pact. Since you win, you are entitled to my bet. Qinglong smiled and said, "The head of the East Branch, Qinglong, including all my subordinates, is willing to listen to all orders from the new president, Hassan Alicia. ”
