Chapter 736: Soul Gamble
When Chen Xi sat on the rhinoceros beast cart, he couldn't help but think about a question.
He was sentenced to become a coolie in Heijin Mountain, this is by no means a matter that one person or two people know, and when he was in the coolie camp, he talked to the new prison warden Su Buding about a problem, that is, after entering the coolie camp, no one can return to the original place. Su Buding's answer was that there would never be, otherwise the coolies would not be called death row prisoners. But Su Bu said firmly that Chen Xi would definitely go back.
Chen Xi asked why, and Su Buding said, because it was just a convention and not a rule. In the laws of the Divine Realm, it is clearly written that those who enter the coolie camp can return to the free world with their punishment reduced if they behave well. The so-called free world is the world of demigods.
The convention is that none of them can survive, but Chen Xi survives. Why? Chen Xi couldn't help but ask, could it be that when the two four-winged servants sentenced him to enter the coolie camp, they really had no other purpose? What does this cutscene mean? That's right, Chen Xi just went through the motions in the coolie camp, and although he encountered some accidents when he entered the Black Gold Mountain Tunnel, he was in no danger. Are these naturally occurring or are they man-made?
Chen Xi never believed in the existence of too many coincidences, and the reason why conventions are called conventions is because they have done so in the past. And Chen Xi has not become a convention, so it is that things are abnormal, things are abnormal, and there must be demons.
If it were someone else, I would be glad about my opportunity. Instead of dying in Heijin Mountain, he came into contact with the Xu family and was favored by the Xu family. What a stroke of luck it was, a blast of luck.
Chen Xi looked down at the dagger in his hand, the one he asked for from the black knight. Now he was going back to Hesse, but no one had taken the dagger back. According to the laws of the Divine Domain, no demigod is allowed to carry weapons. In the world of demigods, holding a stick does not count as holding a weapon, but holding a dagger is different.
Since the laws of the Divine Domain do not allow this, why did no one take back the dagger in Chen Xi's hand? Chen Xi would not believe that this was because it was forgotten, and no detail would be forgotten in this place. Because there are many pairs of eyes in the sky staring at the demigod world without blinking, and the slightest touch of the law cannot escape their eyes. Therefore, the reason why this dagger was able to stay by Chen Xi's side was also deliberately forgotten.
Chen Xi opened the window of the rhinoceros beast cart and threw the dagger out casually.
Some people want him to have a weapon, which is not necessarily a good thing. From the point of view of self-preservation, this dagger, although not very useful, can play an unexpected role. Because no one else has it, when Chen Xi was cornered, he suddenly killed or injured someone with a dagger, which was a change. Some people hope that such a change will occur in the future, so Chen Xi's first reaction is that this thing can bring him definitely not a sense of security.
Of course, Chen Xi couldn't see it, but he could think that the moment he threw the dagger out of the window, someone would definitely frown.
Judging from the current situation, Chen Xi is still unable to determine what situation he is in. Why did he enter the Black Gold Mountain to become a coolie, and why did he get out of the coolie camp?
At this moment, Chen Xi thought of the Dark Law Division, the Dark Law Division of the Great Chu Dynasty of the Tianfu Continent. At the beginning, Chen Xi had just become a member of the Dark Law Division, and it didn't take long for him to be promoted and become a dazzling new star in the Dark Law Division. Even the entire people of Celestial Pivot City remembered his name, Dark Judgment. Why did the Dark Law Division do that at that time?
To put it simply, it is because the Dark Law Division needs to re-establish its status and let more people know about the existence of the Dark Law Division. So what about now? How similar is the situation. Chen Xi entered the Black Gold Mountain and then came back, something that had never happened in the history of the Demigod World of the Divine Domain. So once this matter is publicized, then Chen Xi will be praised as a star again unconsciously.
There are people who want to be famous, and they are very famous.
After speculating on this, what Chen Xi had to think about next became simpler, because the consequences had been found, and the antecedents slowly surfaced by themselves. Some people hope that Chen Xi will become a star, so that everyone in the demigod world will know that he knows him, so his purpose is not related to the Chosen War. Chen Xi was hurriedly sent to the Black Gold Mountain Coolie Camp, and then hurriedly brought back in the name that the third battle was about to begin, so the fundamental reason was because of the Chosen War.
And when it comes to the Chosen War, then the answer is too obvious.
Someone wants to make a bet on themselves, so hold Chen Xi up, let more people know about Chen Xi, and more people are optimistic about Chen Xi, so that the bet will snowball bigger and bigger. The Xu family may be the driving force behind the scenes, and no one dares to destroy the laws of the divine domain on the bright side, for example, true gods cannot contact demigods in the demigod world, and the only chance to contact demigods is Black Gold Mountain.
Chen Xi let out a sigh of relief, and things became more and more interesting
The sky was slightly dark when the rhinoceros beast cart entered Hessian City, and there was no night in the demigod world, but it may have become a little darker at certain times for some unknown reason. Chen Xi not only had what he learned in the Tianfu Continent in his mind, but also his previous life. He speculated that the reason why there was no night in the Divine Domain was because the Divine Domain was constantly rotating, so the Divine Domain was a huge plane rather than a sphere. However, this rotation may not always be perfect, so it is normal for the sky to appear gloomy, and when it is especially bright again, the rotation of the Divine Domain has been adjusted.
Always bright?
Chen Xi couldn't help but sneer, the Lord of the Divine Domain was really a coward. On the surface, it seemed that the absence of night was to keep the light forever, but in fact, Chen Xi thought that it was because the Lord of the Divine Domain was afraid. He was afraid of the darkness, and he was afraid that the darkness would breed something bad for him. It's not so much that he's afraid of the night, it's that he's afraid of the dark side of people's hearts. Then it also shows that the dark side of the Lord of the Divine Domain is really not small.
Unlike last time, this time when he returned to Hesse City, after Chen Xi entered the city gate and got off the bus, no one came around to look at him with that kind of provocative eyes. It was not long after he fought one street on Seventh Street, and it only happened that he eliminated ninety-nine opponents in the second battle. Now Chen Xi's name is already very loud on Seventh Avenue, and even faintly has the meaning of overpowering Kaohsiung.
The two-winged servant Twenty-Seven stood at the entrance of the street and waited for Chen Xi, and when he saw Chen Xi really appear in front of him, Twenty-Seven's face was incredible.
"You're actually back. ”
He didn't know what kind of attitude he should use to face Chen Xi.
Chen Xi didn't care so much, went up and put his arm around Twenty-seven's shoulders, and walked forward with his shoulders hooked: "Is my room still there?"
"Nope"
"Huh, how long have I been away and taking my room?"
"According to the custom, you should be dead, and I'm a law enforcer, can you not put your arms around my shoulders so those people can see, where is my majesty?"
"Okay. ”
Chen Xi's hand withdrew from Twenty-Seven's shoulder, and then patted Twenty-Seven's head as if comforting a child: "That's right, you should be a majestic enforcer." ”
Twenty-seven sighed, and asked Chen Xi about the matter in Heijin Mountain as he walked, of course Chen Xi would not say it. Because of the things he encountered in the tunnel, and the meeting with Xu Ji, once he told Twenty-Seven, it was not good for him, but a disaster of death. Twenty-seven knows what he shouldn't know, so it's really not that far from death. Chen Xi just said that he had gone through the motions in the Black Gold Mountain and was brought back. Twenty-seven will be skeptical, but he can't think of anything else.
"The third battle began three days later, again in that hall. ”
Twenty-Seven said as he walked, "But the two four-winged servants who were in charge of opening the circle last time are gone, and I haven't seen the two of them since you were taken away. ”
Chen Xi's heart moved slightly, and he said in his heart that the secret he fell into was not just what he had speculated, otherwise there was no need to get rid of two or two four-winged divine servants. But Chen Xi thought about it, what was the lowest level in the Divine Domain, and they looked like demigods, because they were indeed in the lowest position. However, the real lowliest is precisely the servant of God who is the enforcer. Whether it's a two-winged divine servant, a four-winged divine servant, or even a six-winged divine servant, is their life really valuable?
It's just something that is made in batches, and it's nothing to kill a large group casually. What's more, not many people cared about those divine servants who didn't look different after they disappeared.
"See that over there?"
Twenty-seven pointed to what some demigods were building not far away according to the command of several divine servants, Chen Xi stopped and looked at it for a while, and found that it was actually a huge billboard with a length of thirty or forty meters and a width of more than fifteen meters. Chen Xi didn't know what else to call this thing other than the billboard, and when he saw the words on the billboard, he suddenly felt that he had fallen into a dark bottomless trap.
"A mysterious demigod from outside the territory, whose strength is unpredictable. The first ever challenger to the Chosen One who eliminated all of his opponents, will he be one of the future worlds to advance to the second tier?
Twenty-seven read it again and said: "Is it worth being proud of? For you, a betting point was specially built, and more and more people believe that you can go far." ”
Chen Xi couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are these guys in the demigod world worth betting on?"
Twenty-seven: "Soul." ”
"Soul?"
Chen Xi was taken aback, what does it mean to bet with your soul?
Twenty-Seven explained: "At first, it was a bet with gold coins, and the demigods were rewarded for digging the Black Gold Mountain. The currency in circulation to buy things here, but as they continue to increase their stakes, the gold is no longer enough to stimulate them. Some madmen thought that those who won with soul bets could share the souls of those who lost, and there was no Moqiong Force in the demigod world, so devouring other people's souls was also a way to improve their own strength. ”
He shrugged his shoulders: "Of course, there are not many people who do this, and most people still bet with gold coins." ”
Chen Xi asked, "The one who loses dies?"
Twenty-seven shook his head first: "How could it be?"
Then he nodded again: "The one who loses loses his soul and will be sent to a coolie camp, so it's almost the same as dying." ”
