On December 3, 568 of the Altino calendar, Jinao Island was over the Free City

"I hate the ruins, I hate Jinao Island, I hate Bailu Cave......"

Blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and Gengoro cursed endlessly, speeding up his escape. Not long ago, he met Zhou Gongjin on a narrow road, and fought again, this time he was not so lucky, although he was able to resist his All Things Yuan Lock, but he was forced to the downwind by his Zhai Tian's strength, and after the battle, he was whipped three times in a row, and finally broke out, and he was almost about to fall there.

The reason why we fell into such a predicament is that in addition to the gap in strength, the geographical environment is also an important factor. The first time they fought, Gengoro didn't fall behind, and escaped by breaking through the wall, originally planning to destroy along the way, but it didn't seem to be an important place, and the area he fled through was full of rooms of the same size, and it seemed that this was probably a dormitory area hundreds of millions of years ago.

If it was a women's dormitory, Gengoro might still be happy, but there is nothing to investigate or destroy the ruins of the dormitory, except for secretly screaming the inverted frieze, only to continue to break through the wall at Jiuyao's speed, hoping to break into a certain computer room or something, and wreak havoc before Zhou Gongjin arrives.

After leaving the dormitory area, he came to a rather strange place, and before he had time to take a closer look, Gong Jin, who had taken a shortcut and arrived one step earlier, appeared, and the two sides fought again, and Zhou Gongjin also opened the mechanism here.

If a machine cannon was turned out of the wall, or if some alloy pipes were entangled, Gengoro would feel a little easier to deal with, but Zhou Gongjin's mechanism surprised him, he had never dealt with such an ambush in his life.

When the trap is activated, the gravity of the surrounding space disappears, and everything floats into the air without any weight. Jiuyao's extreme speed was originally based on the advantage of "turning extremely fast and elusive", but when Gongjin eliminated the gravity of the surrounding space, Jiuyao's extreme speed changed from high speed to stall, and Gengoro, who was trying to dodge the whip, suddenly lost control and hit the alloy steel plate directly in front of him like a meteor.

After a brief battle, Gengoro has not been able to break free from such a disadvantage. Originally, when facing the enemy's attack, Jiuyao Extreme Speed could continuously change the direction of progress in a very short period of time, and it was almost not subject to the physical restrictions of Gao Su's travel, but when the surrounding gravity disappeared, such a flexible turn died faster, and it didn't take long for Gengoro to feel pain all over his body, and his eyes were full of stars, and he couldn't figure out which pain was caused by the Thousand Miles Divine Whip and which one was injured.

Gong Jin rushed here one step earlier and used the power of Saitian to strengthen the wall panel, so that Gengoro could no longer escape by crashing through the wall panel, and the specificity of the gravitational space further sealed the speed of Gengoro's pride and gained the upper hand.

(No way, I can't be the only one who is constrained by gravity.) The power of the Thousand Miles God Whip is heavy, if its center of gravity is unstable, the force sent out will not be strong and heavy, how does this shemale maintain it?)

At a disadvantage, Gengoro struggles to keep his brain clear and look for flaws in his opponent, and he soon discovers Gongjin's secret. Using the Heavenly Heart Consciousness, Gong Jin changed the environment around him, creating a small force field that was beneficial to himself, and maintained the balance of gravity.

Discovering this, Gengoro couldn't draw the gourd in the same way, because the strength of each other was one heaven, and if he also used his Tianxin consciousness to change the environment, he would immediately be affected by Gongjin's reverse influence, forming a spiritual thought wave to bombard his brain, and it would soon be over.

(This ladyboy's martial arts are both high and advantageous, and the tactics of each shot are perfect, and it is impossible to beat him one-on-one, next time I will find all the helpers and beat him collectively, so that I can have a chance of winning...... ）

At the end of the battle, Gengoro came to this conclusion and tried to break through. Gong Jin didn't dare to slack off on this great enemy, and he must kill him here to eliminate the trouble in his heart, however, he still underestimated the enemy's ability.

Although the surrounding wallboard has been strengthened by the power of the sky, Gengoro pretended to dodge the whip and stall to hit the wallboard, and hit the same part more than ten times in a row, when Gongjin swung another heavy whip, he gritted his teeth and took a hard whip, raising Jiuyao's extreme speed to the limit, converting the power of that whip into speed, and the speed surged into impact.

"What a cunning fox!"

Seeing Gengoro, who turned into a flaming meteor and grazed the atmosphere, Gongjin was shocked to realize that he was being tricked, but he was a step too late, and was knocked through the wall panel next to him by Gengoro, only to hear a series of wall panel cracking sounds from near and far, and he fled again.

"As long as you are still in Jinao Island, I am not afraid that you will be able to fly into the sky. ”

Bringing up the map from the main control room, Gong Jin quickly deduced the direction of Gengoro's escape and chased after him by taking a shortcut. And Gengoro's situation is very bad, not only to speed up the escape, but also to luck to suppress the injury, fortunately, the unloading and transformation of "Ziwei Xuanjian" is unparalleled in the world, although he has been whipped by the enemy, but it is only a simple internal injury, the chest breath is not smooth, and there are not many injuries to the muscles and bones, in other words, other masters, they have long been crushed under the whip of Gong Jin.

Gong Jin was also aware of this, so he had to eliminate him first no matter what, so as not to make it even more difficult to deal with after meeting with other Reyns masters.

Gengoro's situation is admittedly unfavorable, and he is also seriously thinking about whether he should escape from Jinao Island first regardless of everything, because he can't figure out the geographical environment, and if he drags it out more, not only will he not be able to destroy important facilities, but he may also be lured into a trap by Gongjin first, and he will die faster.

As he was thinking, a flash of silver light suddenly flashed in front of him, and something stopped right in front of him.

"Stop!"

The situation is unknown, how could Gengoro say stop and stop, but in his busy schedule, he saw clearly that the silver shadow was Ailing, who had run away and disappeared, and hurriedly stopped urgently for fear of hitting him head-on, and tried to pass Ailing's side.

However, this effort came to naught, because Ailing saw the momentum of Gengoro rushing at high speed, and did not dare to slack off, increased the output power of the T1000, hugged hard, and hugged Gengoro's knee just when Gengoro passed by her and the speed slowed down.

...... It was a noisy disaster.

Two men and women, who were pulling each other with the same strength as the heavenly power, after rolling down for a long distance in a row, tearing the ground, violently crashed through the alloy plate wall, broke out, and fell into a ball. If Gengoro's talisman is a little weaker, or if the T1000 is not able to play a protective role, the two of them will definitely not only be dizzy for a while.

"You, you guy, did you come all the way to make me hurt and get hurt?"

"No, well, people's heads are so dizzy! Is there something wrong with the system?"

"Your system is fine, if it weren't for this armor, your neck would have been broken a long time ago, and then you wouldn't have to worry about dizziness. ”

Gengoro scolded angrily, and hurriedly pulled Ailing up, preparing to run away again. Zhou Gongjin will kill at any time, and he will meet this girl, although his combat power has been improved, but this kind of half-hung combat power will be more tied to Zhou Gongjin when he meets him, and he will lose faster.

Having said that, Gengoro didn't dare to ask Ailing to escape separately from him, in case Zhou Gongjin gave up himself and chased Ailing, as a result, these two people fought, whether Zhou Gongjin would look at Zhu Yan's face and not kill Ailing, which Yuan Wulang had no confidence at all.

"Don't run yet, I have something to tell Gengoro. ”

What came out of Ailing's mouth was her experience not long ago. Gengoro doesn't know anything about the ancient magic road, so he can only rely on Jiuyao's extreme speed to break indiscriminately, but Ailing is a big expert in this area, although Jinao Island is a strange place, but she looks at the distribution of buildings and pipelines, measures the voltage flow direction, and follows the line to find the way, which is more familiar than returning to her own home, and soon finds an important computer room.

Although he hadn't found the location of the Tongtian cannon yet, after breaking into several machine rooms, Ailing found a very strange thing.

"Hmm, you said that Zhou Gongjin and they modified the equipment here and prepared to absorb some kind of energy, is that what you mean?"

"Yes, and that energy must be very large, because the equipment he is preparing to process and store is very large, but the specifications of those equipment are very strange, they are not stored electricity, and they are not the same as the energy specifications we know so far, I don't know what they are going to absorb. ”

Ailing is not just talking, the T1000's photography function captures everything and briefly shows it to Gengoro. It can be clearly seen from the film that it is indeed some kind of absorption equipment, attached to the layers of pipelines, and when Ailing wants to destroy it, countless alloy pipelines and scarf wrestlers appear around, attacking her like a protective force.

Even Gengoro was in a hurry, and it was a blessing that Ailing was able to get out of the way, and then he didn't have time to do anything more, so he met Gengoro. For the Ancient Demon Dao, Gengoro is really a layman, but after asking Ailing a few words and clarifying some possible doubts, the two finally determined that this is not an ordinary Ancient Demon Dao equipment.

When the energy passes, these devices can form many force fields, and the result of mutual influence, similar to the formation of the White Deer Cave Immortal Technique, absorbs the free energy in a large way. If it is simply to absorb energy, on the current Wind Continent, there will probably not be a larger energy than the power device that can supply the Tongtian cannon, and it is difficult to understand the move to absorb the free energy without using the power device, however, Gengoro secretly deduced the content of the array, and found that what this circle absorbed and stored was not ordinary natural energy, nor was it the vitality of heaven and earth.

（...... Although the form of the magic circle can absorb an extremely large amount of energy, it cannot absorb such a high-level natural energy, but absorbs ...... OMG!)

Human souls!

I'm afraid that this magic circle, which is widely spread on half of Jinao Island, is mainly used to absorb the souls of living beings. When a large number of creatures die nearby, this circle will start to operate, absorbing thousands of vain dead souls, and looking at the arrangement of this circle, it is not just to lock up the dead souls, but to refine all the captured souls and return them to pure energy.

Why do you have to go to great lengths to do these actions? Compared with the energy required to launch the Tongtian Cannon, even if you refine the souls of tens of millions of people, the energy obtained is still a drop in the bucket, and it doesn't make much sense, not to mention that at the moment when the power plant returns, Zhou Gongjin doesn't need to do these things at all.

However, compared with other abundant natural energy, the human soul has some irreplaceable particularities, especially when using spells, the most notable example is that in the past, before the Tianguan of the North Gate, Hua Tianxie sucked up the souls of 200,000 Hua family's disciples in one go, and broke through to the heavenly position, if Gong Jin also used the same method......

They all already possess the peerless power of the Zhai Heaven Position, is it necessary to enhance their cultivation in this way? Gengoro is not sure, because the tens of millions of citizens of Shangri-La died overnight, and the energy generated is far from being comparable to the 200,000 Hua Family disciples, and he asked himself, if he has the power of the Zhai Heaven Rank and wants to make a breakthrough in the shortest possible time, then he will either immediately blow up the four major caves and cause the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to change, or he will do the same thing as Hua Tianxie.

The question is...... Is that right? Is it okay to do that?

Of course not!

"!"

Gengoro punched the wall next to him, and the wall board opened a big hole with a "boom", this earth-shattering loud sound startled Ailing, and he turned his head sideways to look at it, only to see Gengoro's face full of anger, and he could no longer find half of Sven and harmony on his handsome face, and the flame momentum emitted in the anger frightened Ailing so much that he didn't dare to gasp.

"Is victory so important? What the hell is going on now, does everyone want strength and want to go crazy? Even if this kind of thing is done, even if it is practiced to be the first in the world in martial arts and unify the continent, so what? There is not even a basic human heart, is such an achievement meaningful?"

Gengoro's anger was not contrived. The fist slammed on the wall next to him, and when his fingers transmitted the pain, the pain in his heart was even worse than the pain in his hands, especially when he thought that he and Zhou Gongjin were both heavenly martial artists, and his ugly behavior made Gengoro feel a sense of self-loathing.

"Mr. Gengoro ...... Gengoro"

Ailing pulled Gengoro's sleeve and spoke carefully, so that Gengoro noticed his gaffe, and when he saw Ailing's expression of wanting to say something, he took two deep breaths, calmed his expression, and asked her what she wanted to say.

"What if...... If we want to destroy those things, Zhou Gongjin will definitely chase them immediately, and the area to be destroyed is large, and it is difficult to get hold of them......"

Gengoro agrees with this, looking at Ailing's destruction experience just now, once he is in the position of the important machine room, before he can do it, a large number of cangjin wrestlers will appear, if he is formed by those heavy mecha soldiers to form a defensive array, even if he deliberately fights, the effect is not great, and it will not be long before Zhou Gongjin will catch up, it will be very difficult to save his life at that time, don't think about doing anything else.

In addition, there is no point in destroying those soul-sucking devices, the Babel cannon will still be fired, and the lives of tens of millions of people on the ground will still not be saved, and no one can be saved. If you want to do sabotage, it only makes sense to destroy the Babel cannon or power plant.

However, what should be done? How can we not be disturbed by Zhou Gongjin?

“...... I, I have a way, maybe I can succeed......"

The more Ailing spoke, the quieter she became, as if she was scrupling about something, and finally even made her eyes look and wanted to whisper to Gengoro. Gengoro was curious, but he still leaned over to hear what this simple-minded girl had to do.

"Mr. Gengoro...... Please ...... Please die......"

The words came into his ears, which made Gengoro stunned, and when he was alert to the murderous aura that suddenly appeared behind him, he was already a step slower, and was whipped on the back by a Thousand Miles God whip, and at the same time there was a pain in his chest, and he was suddenly attacked by Ailing who didn't know what sharp things he used to attack, and with the attack of the Thousand Miles God Whip, he broke into the protective true qi at once, and there was a sharp pain in his chest.

Caught off guard, Gengoro's two attacks were all received as ordered, the injury was not light, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, but before the luck counterattacked, he tried his best to maintain the calm in his mind, knowing that he was injured, and the only combat power and time he had must not make a wrong judgment, otherwise he would not even have the last trace of life.

There are a few things that should be paid attention to: Zhou Gongjin's appearance aside, Gengoro didn't believe that Ailing would sneak attack him, so the first one was to look at her eyes, and the eyes that came into contact were clear and sober, flashing with melancholy and guilt, and it didn't seem to be mentally controlled;

What is the reason? Countless thoughts flashed through Gengoro's mind, and he suddenly remembered a person, as if he had an understanding.

"I see...... Be careful not to die in such a pointless place. ”

The voice was so low that no one could hear it, Gengoro raised his hand and slapped it on Ailing's lower abdomen, and the strength was everywhere, Ailing was thrown far away, falling into the hole in the wall board that Gengoro broke in anger not long ago, and continuously pierced through the wall board.

Raising his palm to send Ailing away, Gengoro listened to the wind and discerned the sound, grabbed the whip with his backhand, and the technique was so wonderful that he grabbed the whip squarely, but the strong force on the whip came, instantly breaking Gengoro's talisman true qi, the blood vessels of half of his arm burst, and the blood gushing out of his elbow flowed from his elbow to his fingertips.

"It's really a good skill, except for my mentor, you are the first person who has the ability to turn his back on me and whip me without dying. ”

"Teacher, the way you repay your kindness and filial piety is really impressive!"

"Yes, but there is no originality, and I am not the first, and I will never be the last. ”

In a brief verbal exchange, Gengoro and Gongjin attacked and defended each other. According to common sense, Gengoro can grab Gong Jin's whip and seal the whip, which should have the upper hand, but Gong Jin's power comes through the whip, and if Gengoro and the others are fighting with a strong cable, the two sides compete for internal strength and lose all of a sudden, so he chooses to abandon the whip, fight with a flexible body method, and attack with the Hoshino Tianhe sword in the air.

But such tactics do not make any sense. The difference between the two sides is a heaven, although the Hoshino Tianhe Sword is invincible in the battle of the same level, it can't break Gong Jin's protective true qi at all, and it has been automatically wiped out before it is half a foot close.

(Fighting like this is suicidal, and there is some other way to turn the tide of victory...... ）

Thinking of the trick of repeatedly performing miraculous feats in the heavenly leapfrog battle, Gengoro fought hard to take a whip, rushed up, raised his arms and slammed on the wall board above, and used all his strength at once, and in the roar, I don't know how many layers of wall board penetrated, straight through the sky above.

"Oh......"

The wall board was continuously blasted, and Gong Jin looked up at the big hole above, and could clearly see the starry sky, and roughly guessed the enemy's intentions.

Gengoro concentrated his breath, urged his strength, and followed by a long drink.

"Nine Pole Star Divine Transformation!"

In the long shout, the pitch-black night sky, Fang Sui, Ziwei, Tianji, Wei Mei, Gu Ming, Eagle Ling, Po Jun, Gu Meng, Fu Si, the main stars of the nine Kunlun night sky, suddenly brightened, and nine starlights shot down, penetrating the broken hole in the wall panel, running through Gong Jin's body, and locking him firmly.

The star sage's proud mastery has been invincible in the past battles, as strong as Li Yu and Dolgon have been subject to this set of stunts, even if it is Zhou Gongjin who has broken through the strong heavenly position, Gengoro is confident that he can lock him for a moment.

And the victory or defeat of life and death is enough to be known in a very short moment......

“...... It's so powerful, I can't even lift my fingers, it is worthy of the peerless school used to block the Great Demon God King back then, and I ......am convinced that I am defeated by this move."

Ignoring what Gong Jin was saying, Gengoro concentrated on this Hoshino Tianhe sword, and was sure to take advantage of the moment when Gong Jin couldn't move, and hit it hard, or be able to hit him directly in the brain and kill him in one fell swoop.

However, although the Nine Poles Star God couldn't trap the Zhai Heaven Rank Martial Artist for long, Gong Jin's movements couldn't show that he was trying to break free from the shackles of star power.

“...... It's a pity that such a powerful trick has to pay a price, because when you are fully focused on maintaining the star power lock, you can no longer operate the Heavenly Heart......"

Gong Jin's faint words turned into a sharp pain that hit Gengoro's brain. Gong Jin had used the All Things Vitality Lock several times before, but Gengoro briefly resisted and escaped with his subtle Heavenly Heart Consciousness, so that Gong Jin could not take advantage of the Heavenly Position Difference, however, he was in a defenseless state when he used the Nine Pole Star Divine Transformation with all his might, and he could no longer resist Gong Jin's All Things Vitality Lock.

"Woo......"

The vitality lock of all things pushed by the power of the Zhai Heavenly Position formed a spiritual thunderbolt that directly hit the brain, Gengoro snorted, his facial features overflowed with blood, and although the Hoshino Tianhe Sword was sent out, the Nine Pole Star Divine Transformation, which was the most labor-intensive to maintain, was already self-defeating.

The highly concentrated sharp sword qi successfully broke through Gong Jin's protective true qi, but it was not able to hurt the vital point, only a blood hole was pierced in the left shoulder, but Gong Jin's counterattack was extremely efficient, and the strength was on his only remaining left arm, and a punch was swung out, easily penetrating the enemy's body.

This punch hit the enemy's vital organs hard, so that Gongjin had a solid sense of victory, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, because the threat of Gengoro was too great, if he didn't kill him earlier, it might not be long before he broke through to the Zhai Heavenly Position, the same level as his own strength, and it was extremely difficult to deal with.

Severely injured the internal organs, such an injury even a heavenly martial artist can not bear, not to mention that under his own deliberate urging, the trauma of Gengoro's heart is particularly serious, as long as he destroys the heart with heavy techniques and cuts off his vitality, even if he has the ability to survive, it is also a lack of survival skills. The situation at this moment is the same as when he fought Wang Wu, but he doesn't have to sacrifice an arm, and this man's internal strength is far less than Wang Wu, and the victory or defeat can be said to be obvious.

However, when Gongjin once again condensed his strength and prepared to shatter the enemy's heart in one fell swoop, he found that his strength was blocked, and Gengoro still had the strength to resist.

"It's very supportable, the will to fight is amazing, but how long can your last flame be lit?"

Of course, Gong Jin can feel that although Gengoro's resistance is strong, it is only the end of the strong crossbow, and when this strength is exhausted, he will be powerless and will collapse without attacking, so he is not in a hurry to forcibly break through and waste his strength.

"You, you guy, in order to put yourself in the first place, do you do anything?"

"Wrong, I don't have any interest in the title of number one in the world of martial arts. ”

A little bit of hot blood dripped on Gong Jin's arm, and his voice was as flat as usual, but his ice blue eyes were terrifyingly cold.

"It's just that you Reyns are outnumbered, and if I don't stand firm in the first position and close the distance between me and you, I will inevitably face your siege. I'm not going to wait until I'm in that predicament to fight back, so I can't let any of you ascend to the throne of Ramadan. ”

“...... For this reason...... You're going to bombard Shangri-La and take tens of millions of lives as a stepping stone to your success...... You, you unconscionable thing......"

Gengoro's indignation received an extremely cold answer, and Gongjin was unimpressed by his excitement.

"Don't be so surprised, this is just the traditional practice of the Heavenly Rank Warriors, during the Kyushu War, the Three Sages once planned to blast the four major caves in order to increase their strength against the enemy. Compared to them, the number of people I sacrificed is not much...... In fact, this is not the point, everything in the world is like this, there are always people who lose, people who win, the winners live, the losers die, this time I won, you lose, you and the people below you pay for your life together, everything is just like that. ”

"Hey...... According to you, wouldn't it be unreasonable for me not to die today?"

"Yes, the survival of the fittest, this is the iron rule between us...... So, you can look at it now. ”

Sensing that Gengoro's resistance was weakening, Gong Jin violently exploded the power accumulated in his left arm, but as soon as his strength was lucky, he was dismantled by the enemy with a mysterious mental method, and his attack was fruitless.

"Ziwei Xuanjian, you can also transform your strength in your own body?"

Not only did he turn his strength, but Gengoro roared again, and his arms slammed into Gong Jin's left hand, desperately aggravating the injury, and combined the power of the blow borrowed by Shicai with his own strength, hitting the side of Gong Jin's elbow. The joint was hit hard, Gong Jin did not suffer any trauma, but he frowned and felt pain, and Gengoro took advantage of the shock of this blow, his whole body broke away from Gong Jin's arm, flew upside down, and fell into the alloy wall plate behind him.

Gong Jin's blow failed to kill the enemy, and it was expected that the enemy would have a wave of near-death counterattacks, and he was concentrating, but he was surprised to see that the alloy wall panel that Gengoro fell into was violently twisted and dissolved as if it was affected by some strange force, and it was centered on Gengoro's body that did not move for a moment, and it spun rapidly.

"It's ...... What a cunning guy. ”

Gong Jin didn't have time to take a step forward, and whipped his hand, but he was still a step too slow. The heavy whip that could open the mountain and split the rocks hit the rapidly forming metal sphere, whipping out a deep crack, but the surface of the metal sphere that rotated at high speed flowed like a liquid, and the crack was quickly repaired.

When Gong Jin's second whip came indiscriminately, the entire metal sphere had stabilized and turned into a huge object with a diameter of three feet, although the whip was powerful, it could only leave a faint mark on the surface of the sphere, and could not cause damage.

The heavy whip failed, Gong Jin put away the Thousand Miles Divine Whip, concentrated his strength, and blasted it at the metal giant ball, successfully hitting a hole in it, but as soon as his hand was raised, the hole quickly compounded, as if he had not been attacked by any kind.

"Gengoro...... Do you really think that you will be able to drag on for a while, or do you really have so much confidence in your comrades-in-arms that they will save you?"

In front of him, Gong Jin had only heard Lu You mention it, but he didn't know the detailed cultivation method. It was during the Kyushu War, a White Deer Cave Immortal Taoist created a life-saving spell, when his own life was threatened, and the enemy was too strong to escape, he used this method to save his life. Giving up all vitality, recuperating with turtle breath, and using all the remaining strength to cooperate with the magic to form a protective shell, even an enemy that is several times stronger than oneself will be difficult to break, unless it is a few months later, the wounded hidden in the shell will heal and break out of the shell on their own.

Against ordinary enemies, the life-saving spell of this shrunken turtle is indeed useful, but with Gong Jin's invincible strength at the moment, it only takes a few hours at most to forcibly destroy the protective shell formed by Gengoro's full strength, and it is impossible for it to drag on for several months. With Gengoro's ingenuity, Gongjin thought that it was impossible for him not to know this, and the only possible explanation was only two points.

Tonight was especially important for Gong Jin, every minute was of the essence, and Gengoro gambled that he would not be able to spend an hour or two here destroying the Protective Shell in order to kill a dying enemy, and if Gong Jin did not have time to attack, and the reinforcements from Reyns's side landed on Jinao Island, he might be rescued in the scuffle.

Thinking of such a strain at the time of defeat, Gong Jin couldn't help but admire this opponent, if it was himself, he couldn't think of a better way to survive, not to mention that he had a good estimate, he really didn't have time to waste here, he had to retain his vitality and time to deal with the next possible enemy.

"You've won the first step in your bet, but we'll see if you can keep winning!"
