Chapter VI

After saying goodbye to the dragon, he opened the stone gate with the staff of the king, only to see hundreds of furry monsters fleeing in panic towards the depths of the canyon like frightened birds.

Akira Xieno, who was already covered in injuries, was staggering under Gina's support, and when he saw me walking out, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Yesu?!"

"Yay, you're big!"

"Ling?!Is that you?!Why don't you see you for a while, and you become like, this light is too dazzling, please save some electricity! We'll have to travel a long way at night!"

Gina exclaimed in surprise, "The Staff of Kings?!"

I nodded at her and said, "Clever, just guess it." ”

Xie Ye Ming cheered, dragging his broken body and trying to pounce and hug me.

I stretched out my hand to support him, looked at his large and small wounds that were still bleeding, frowned, and asked, "Why are you so miserable! Who was bitten?"

He grinned at me and said, "Damn, a group of ancient saber-toothed tigers, each one is frighteningly fast, and I can't use the fire phoenix to scatter the feathers, so I can only fight them hand-to-hand." If you don't come out again, I guess the two of us will have to wait for you at the entrance. Hey, this is the so-called King's Staff, how does it look like a chopstick!"

"What's so strange about this, what kind of indulgence crown or ring!"

"Damn, who gave this name! By the way, why did you get in for so long?

I thought you were already hanging in there!"

I patted him on the shoulder and smiled reassuringly, "It's okay, it's okay, that guy inside is easier to talk to, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to get it." ”

"Hahaha, that's it. Xie Ye Ming couldn't help but smirk when he looked at the King's Staff, and suddenly frowned halfway through the laugh: "But...... But now there is another problem, I am afraid that we will not be able to rush back before dawn except for suicide. ”

I shook the stick in front of his eyes and said proudly, "No, no, as long as we have this thing, we can go back now." ”

Amid Akira Sueno's screams of excitement, I decided to teleport us to Gina's village first.

After a burst of white light, the canyon in front of us disappeared, and in its place, it was indeed the dense jungle, but to our great surprise, all the injuries on our bodies miraculously disappeared with the teleportation!

Gina reluctantly kissed us on the cheeks more than a dozen times before waving goodbye with a tearful smile: "If you come back in the future, don't forget to come and see me!"

Akira Xieno also waved his hand with tears in his eyes: "Don't worry, next time I come, I will definitely bring you a set of decent clothes!

Soon, we were back at the entrance. It was still a long time before six o'clock in the morning, and there was no one at the entrance.

Seeing a faint head shaking in the jungle in the distance, I hurriedly wrapped the King's Staff in my clothes, so as not to alarm them with the white light emitted from my body.

"Looks like they're lying in ambush there waiting for us to come back!" "Akira Xieno laughed, "It's a pity that they never thought that we would appear directly from here." Shall we cover up from behind and scare them?"

I dragged him to the entrance, glared at him and said, "Are you idle?

It's a matter of business, I'm still waiting to smash that leopard dragon egg!"

Stepping out of the game world, I entered the hall on the third floor of the vast and dimly lit Magic Palace again.

A staff member immediately greeted him and said, "May I ask if you two also gave up halfway?"

Thank you, the temporary lounge is over there, you can go there and wait until the end of the game for the medal ceremony. ”

Xieno glared at him and said, "Give up, we are the only winners in this competition!"

The staff member was taken aback, and after seeing me holding the King's Staff suddenly burst into white light, he hurriedly apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm going to let someone notify the president in charge of awarding the award." There was a little bit of a situation in the control room just now, so the president led him over. ”

I asked curiously, "What's going on, why is it that even the Golden Emblem Dragoon is alarmed?"

He reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked back at the few staff members behind him, and stammered, "This...... This one...... Ever since one of the players who had gone crazy and voluntarily quit the game, we suddenly lost contact with the control room, but ...... Please, please rest assured, the President will be back soon, and I will go and inform him. After saying that, he turned around and ran.

Akira and I looked at each other, and he looked at the almost empty hall and muttered, "Could it be...... The dragon egg has been robbed......"

At this time, another staff member came up to us with a smile on his face and asked, "Are you two going to sell this King's Staff?" If you want to sell it, we will buy it on behalf of the government......

I just wanted to ask about the price, but the thin stick in my hand was snatched by Akira Xieno, only to see him desperately holding it in his arms and shouting: "Don't sell, don't sell!

While we were waiting for news in the makeshift break room with nothing to do, several busy staff brought us drinks and hot meals.

After a whole day of hunger, we immediately gobbled up, and Akira Xieno said as he ate, "Damn, I can't think of anyone who is one step faster than us, eighty percent of it is a good thing that the mongrel sent by Rakite did." ”

I frowned and nodded while drinking the hot soup, "If you want to snatch the dragon egg from Mekel, I think only he dares to do it." ”

"Hehe, you're not wrong at all, but this time the old fox of Ratcht is probably working in vain. ”

I looked up at Akira Supino in surprise, "What did you just say?"

Who knew that Akira Xieno also glared at me and said, "Didn't you talk just now, why did you still come to ask me?"

I was shocked to find out that there was another person at the door of the lounge.

But when I saw the familiar big man and the cigar that couldn't stop emitting white smoke, I couldn't help but exclaim, "Master...... You...... Why are you here?!"

If I hadn't closed it in time, I'm afraid the word "senior brother" would have blurted out.

Roth stood in the doorway and laughed at me, "Can't I come?" Silly boy, congratulations, I didn't think you would be able to get that King's Staff that I have never seen before." ”

Akira Xieno looked at Roth dumbly, and then at me, his eyes almost popping out.

It wasn't until a large lump of rice fell out of his gaping mouth that he stammered, "You...... You...... You're not...... Ahh

Roth walked over, slapped Xieno Ming's brain melon with a cigar, and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense to me, if that old immortal hears it, he won't pick my skin!"

"But your kung fu is so similar, the two of you still know each other, you are not a master and apprentice, are you a brother and a brother?!" Xie Ye Ming cried aggrievedly holding his head.

Luo pointed at Xieno Akira and said to me with a smile: "Yu, since this vitiligo already knows the secret between us, we can't keep him anymore, otherwise if he says it, I'm afraid that the dead old man will chase me for thousands of miles." You say, 'Shall I kill him, or shall I beat him into a vitiligo?'

"Don't!!" Xieno Akira was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged Rot's arm and begged for mercy: "Boss!

For the sake of the autograph I asked you for, spare me! I swear, I won't say it to death!"

"Hahaha, dead boy, why is it still the same as back then!" Roth laughed and put his head under his armpit, flicked his fingers under his head and asked, "What about your master?"

Isn't he by you?"

"Hehe, I'm so smart and cute, it's too late for him to like it, how can he be angry?!"

"Hey, I see you're getting more and more shameless! Come, let me pinch and see how thick your skin really is. ”

I looked at the two people in front of me in amazement, and it took me a long time to react and ask, "You, do you know each other?"

Akira Xieno smirked at me proudly, "Of course I know, he used to be my idol......!

Roth shrugged his shoulders helplessly at me and said, "I don't want to know this vitiligo, but he owes me more than 30,000 silver and Luke has not paid it back yet." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Xie Yeming's neck and pretended to be vicious and said, "Boy, if you don't pay back the money, I'll castrate you and throw you into those game worlds on the first floor, and I'll see what you do to comfort those thirsty women when the time comes!"

Xie Ye Ming smiled bitterly and said: "Boss, isn't it too hurtful to talk about the sensitive topic of money between our brothers? Besides, it's not my fault that I don't pay back the money! Who told you to run away all these years? I have saved enough money to pay you back several times, but unfortunately I can't find you anywhere, alas, so I have to spend it again." When he said this, Xieno Ming's face didn't even blush.

Roth snorted, let go of him and said, "You kid, you're still so flamboyant."

But for the sake of you who haven't forgotten me after so many years, the debts of more than 30,000 yuan will be written off!"

Xie Ye Ming rubbed his neck and smirked: "Really?!Hehe, to be honest, in fact, I have long forgotten that I still owe you money and haven't paid it back, if I hadn't seen Ah Yu, I might have forgotten what your name was!"

Seeing Roth's brows, he hurriedly changed his words: "Hahaha! But your old man's voice and smile have always been deeply imprinted in my mind, lingering and indelible! Otherwise, why would I still recognize you at a glance after not seeing you for more than 30 years? Besides, I forgot what the name is, and I can't even remember what my master's old man's name is, I can't remember it now......

By the time these two people finished "making out", the food was almost cold. Akira Xieno squatted in the corner with his head full of bags and hummed incessantly, while Roth sat in his seat and enjoyed his meal.

It wasn't until this moment that I had the opportunity to ask the doubts in my heart just now: "Senior brother, you just said that Lachite was busy this time, what's going on?"

Roth couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, you stupid people, one by one, came from all over the world, but you didn't know that you were killed by that guy from Maykel." I see you're all dazed, how could the government possibly use such an important dragon egg as a prize?!"

I looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Could it be that the dragon egg is fake?!"

"Hehe, that's not it, no matter how bold the government is, it doesn't dare to bluff people with fake ones.

They don't want their credibility to be tarnished!"

"Huh, what's going on?" I was confused.

"Hmph, although the dragon egg is the fertilized egg of the real snow-spotted leopard dragon, it is a dead egg.

If you think about it, the dragon egg that has been extinct for hundreds of years is also hundreds of years old! It hasn't hatched for such a long time, can it suddenly hatch now? I think only the greedy fool of Ratchet naively thinks that it can really hatch!"

"But...... But what if Ratchet can really find a way to hatch it?"

Roth shook his cigar at me and said, "No way, a friend of mine, the treasure appraiser of Paradise Island, was asked by Maykel to specifically identify the egg a few days ago, and confirmed that all the cells and tissues inside are no longer viable, and it is absolutely impossible to hatch." However, it is a miracle that this egg has been preserved so well. ”

I put my mind at ease and smiled, "That's good, that's good." I don't know which stupid guy Rachite sent this time, if he finds out that the dragon egg can't hatch at all, I'm afraid he will be scared to death, hahaha!"

Roth sneered and said, "I'm just afraid...... That idiot will never have a chance to discover the secret again. ”

"What?!" I exclaimed, "Did you catch him?"

"Well, just now. Hmph, that stupid guy named Gatetower killed three treasure hunters guarding the dragon eggs, and killed all the guards around him, thinking that no one would recognize him, and wanted to swagger out of the main gate with his lifetime membership card, but I hit him squarely. Luckily, I could smell the blood on him, and I remembered that this idiot was one of Ratcht's lackeys, otherwise he would have slipped away from this kid! But that idiot's mouth is so hard! I fanned off my jaw, and I refused to tell the whereabouts of the dragon eggs, so it seemed that Mekael and his men had to do the work themselves. ”

"......" nonsense, have you ever seen someone whose jaw has dropped and still be able to speak?

"And what about his corpse? Didn't you use his corpse to prove that Ratchet was the mastermind of the incident?"

"That's the troublesome thing, let that guy from Maykel do it. Besides, if a dragoon general died in vain, even if he was a robbery and murderer, I'm afraid that the entire paradise island would be occupied by the Raki's dragoons! Hehe, that garbage corpse has been chopped into meat sauce and washed into the toilet sewer, like this kind of scum who can even rape and kill the wives of his subordinates, can be regarded as a well-deserved death. But the treasure hunters who died in an unknown way, alas, they died unjustly!" Roth said with a lamented sigh, "One of them even gambled with me! ”

I asked suspiciously, "Didn't Makael know that Ratchet was coming to snatch the dragon eggs, and let the treasure hunters come to see if she didn't send her own men?"

Roth sneered: "It was precisely because Mekael knew that Lachite was going to rob him, so he didn't dare to arrange his own people, otherwise it would be his people who died this time." Hmph, it's the silver emblem dragon rider under Lachite, even if he doesn't bring a dragon, his strength is not something he can resist with the purple emblems he brought. I saw the courage of that man a hundred years ago......"

He stopped abruptly at this point, reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and said, "The person who presented you with the award is back, boy, don't be in a hurry to leave later, go to the entrance gate of the Magic Palace and wait for me."

Hehe, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I still want to have a good chat with you!" After speaking, before I could react, it had disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Only then did Xie Ye Ming cover his head, stand up cautiously, look around, and ask me, "Your senior brother is gone? Mom, look at me now, can I still go out to meet people?"

After waiting for five or six minutes, Mekael hurried with a large group of people. I couldn't help but secretly admire my senior brother's spiritual sense, and I was able to detect their footsteps from such a distance.

But I heard Maykel laughing outside the door and asking the staff: "Where is our champion?"

Reporters are waiting to take pictures of him!"

The grand award ceremony was officially opened after all the league presidents, government representatives, and players who had to retire from the game world due to timeouts on Paradise Island gathered.

Standing on the makeshift podium, looking at the countless dazzling flashing lights under the stage, I suddenly remembered in horror that I wonder if the boss and Syracuse City Moon will associate me with Leng Yu, who disappeared for two days for no reason, after they see my photo in the newspaper tomorrow.

When Maykel personally handed over four thin papers printed with gilded letters to me and Akira Xieno, Akira Xieno's jaw almost fell with laughter. But when Maykale asked, "How?"

Would you like to be my subordinate?" he immediately closed his mouth again and shook his head vigorously.

The narrator held a microphone and explained to reporters: "All four lifetime membership certificates have been stamped with the certification seals of the government and the Paradise Island Consulate, and as long as the holder fills in his name and stamps his or her fingerprint, it will be valid immediately." In the future, as long as the holder holds this certificate, he will be able to enjoy all the privileges on Paradise Island for free forever, and can use it to serve his sentence instead. In other words, these two winners will not only have the right to come and go freely and live in Paradise Island from now on, but also have the right to commit two death sentences. However, I believe that anyone who has enjoyed the privileges of a lifetime membership to Paradise Island does not want to see such a thing happen...... If you guests also want to have this kind of privilege, we will take advantage of today's competition, we will give you a discount of 85%, the original one-time consumption of 500,000 silver Luke can only have the lifetime membership privilege, today you only need to spend 425,000 to get ......"

After listening to his explanation, I realized that a lifetime membership does not allow people to commit crimes without scruples! Once they serve their sentences, the government will detain their credentials for the corresponding number of years, and if they are sentenced to death, they will confiscate their membership credentials.

After awarding the lifetime membership card, Maykale patted me on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Young man, Sutes has already mentioned you to me. How about it, if a young and promising talent like you does not devote himself to the blood-boiling dragoon army and do a vigorous and great cause, it is really a pity for the whole society!"

I quickly and modestly refused: "Thank you for your love, in fact, the main credit is all due to Brother Xie alone, I am just touching him." And I already have my own goals in life, and I really don't dare to let adults bother me anymore. ”

Maykel frowned slightly, and joked with a little pity: "Why are you two so repulsive to the Dragoons? Are we Flood Beasts? Hehe, if you want to better realize your ideals, joining the Dragoons will definitely make you more effective with half the effort." However, if young people want to go their own way, I will not force it, after all, everyone has their own life they want to pursue, but ...... Oh, young man, think about it again! If we have a chance to meet in the future, I hope that you will change your mind then. ”

Although he appeared to have an amiable smile on the surface, his words seemed to be filled with a faint threat that could not be refused. There was a "boom" in my heart, and a vague premonition of extreme danger instantly passed through my mind.

Turning my head to look at Akira Xieno, who was still smirking, I sighed silently and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll consider your proposal carefully." ”

Maykel smiled at me with satisfaction: "Hehe, I will be looking forward to seeing you next time......"

I wish that would be the next life......

Next, Maykel announced the news of the theft of the dragon egg.

Looking at the rioting crowd below, he smiled and comforted: "Please don't worry, for some special reasons, we have made that dragon egg unable to hatch normally." So even if our enemies get this dragon egg, it won't pose any real threat to us.

But for these two players, we can only say sorry, because the dragon egg is a priceless treasure to the government, so it cannot be cashed in money, but as soon as we recover it, we will immediately reissue it to the two of you. ”

Haha, what can't be hatched properly, it's simply impossible to hatch again!

It seems that Makael did not intend to give us this dragon egg as a prize from the beginning, the so-called competition, everything is just a gorgeous bait.

It is because of these special reasons that three unsuspecting people died in vain for a dragon egg that could not hatch at all.

I secretly sneered in my heart a few times, and suddenly saw that in the midst of an uproar, Ye Lingjian was smiling and toasting me with a glass of wine, and the relaxed smile on his face was incompatible with the surprised crowd around him. After nodding slightly at him, a deep sense of powerlessness suddenly welled up in my heart.

It turns out that you already know about this......

The next celebratory reception was carried out in the midst of the schadenfreude but jealousy of the contestants, and the enthusiastic toasts of the alliance presidents.

In order to avoid the exposure of our relationship, Ye Lingjian just smiled and touched our wine glasses slightly before turning to leave, while the alliance presidents who were rushing up next to him almost squeezed the two of us to death with no enthusiasm.

Finally escaping from the crowd, I looked at Akira Xieno, who could no longer find Kita in the crowd, with a little guilt, and hurried to the entrance gate of the Magic Palace.

After waiting for a while, I saw my brother walking towards me with a blue satchel, a pair of sunglasses, and a cigar in his mouth.

"Huh, do you know that I'm poor, and I came here to send me money?

I looked at the bulging package in surprise.

He smiled and knocked me on the head and said, "Don't dream, this money is for you to bring to the principal and Eina." Hearst would let you out for a boring treasure hunt, and I don't think the old guy from the headmaster has any money to spend. It's not a lot of money here, but I think I can get him to support it for two or three months!"

I gave a thumbs up and praised, "Senior brother, you are really amazing, you can guess it!"

When I opened the package, I saw that there was a whole bag of all kinds of strange gemstones, some of which even emitted a soft shimmer in the evening sunset.

"Senior brother...... This one...... Is it really not my share?" I asked cheekily, swallowing with difficulty.

"I wanted to give you a little! It's a pity that the dead old man had forbade me to give you any kind of help. Roth smiled helplessly and said, "Accept your fate, I don't want to be hung on the flag at the door of the Senate by that old man for people to see!"

I lowered my head in disappointment, then suddenly looked up again and looked at him hopefully, "If you don't say it, if I don't say it, how can he know?"

"How could he possibly know? Even the last time I sneaked to see you at Hearst, he knew. Will he know about it?"

I was completely desperate, looking at the large number of unreachable gems and almost crying bitterly, I couldn't help but scold fiercely: "That old immortal, do you have to torture me to death to be happy?"

Roth laughed lowly, patted me on the shoulder and comforted me, "I was worse than you back then! I was so poor that I didn't even have to change my underwear, so I had to stop at the door of the cafeteria every day and ask people for money." You're still going to work now! You're much better than I was back then. Haha, don't stand here stupidly, go, go have a drink with me. ”

I hurriedly shook my head and said, "No, no, I still have to meet a few people, and when I'm done, I have to go back to the hotel to change clothes and prepare to leave the island!"

"Hey, you still have acquaintances here?" Roth looked at me in surprise.

I blushed and said, "Oh, it's not really, it's just a few friends I just met in Pink Paradise." ”

Roth was stunned, and then laughed: "A few friends you just met?

Seeing that I didn't deny it, he patted me on the shoulder and smiled: "Boy, okay! You really didn't embarrass me for your senior brother, hahaha!"

I was so angry at him that I glared at him and said, "What the hell is going on! I'm just going to return one thing." ”

"Huh, have they lent you any treasures? When have these girls been so generous? Show me, maybe something very valuable!"

I pulled out the gem and shook it at him proudly, "This is a gem that can be resurrected three thousand times!

Roth took the bead in amazement, took it in front of him and looked at it for a long time before scratching his head and saying, "Can this broken thing be resurrected three thousand times......?" It doesn't seem that amazing, does it look like a ambergris bead that can only be resurrected thirty times?"

I was immediately dumbfounded, glared at him and said, "Senior brother, isn't it, you probably have taken a fancy to it, even I want to deceive......

Rott laughed and threw the gem at me, saying, "I'm afraid you've been deceived by them!"

I see, eighty percent of them are obsessed with you, for fear that you will not go back to see them, so they deliberately exaggerate and deceive you. Alas, I can't imagine that those three girls will actually deceive people, is it because you are too charming, or have they been taken bad by others over the years?"

"No......" I held the gem and looked at it in disbelief.

Seeing that I didn't believe me, Roth shook his head with a smile, took out an identical gem from his pocket, handed it to me, and said, "Look at it! Do they look the same? ”

Damn! It's exactly the same...... Alas, is it true that I am such a deceitful person?

However, Roth didn't understand my mood at the moment, and actually said, "Hahaha, don't be so sad, okay? I want to open a little! Although this is not a very rare gem, at least you still make it! Even if you are robbed by them, you will not lose anything." Come, come, tell me about your scam...... How did you meet them, so that I could drink with people in the future...... No, no, I'm on guard when I go to see them......"
