Chapter 7 The right of final interpretation belongs to me
The water rushed into Kevin's nostrils and mouth, bringing him a burst of cold and choking cough, and at the same time, he instantly came to his senses.
His whole body began to disobey, instinctively tensing his muscles, pushing his hands to the ground with all his might, and his feet kicking indiscriminately.
Rogers secured the rim of the basin with one hand and held Kevin's head like a pincer with the other, strangling his attempts to survive.
All that remained was the sound of the suffocator rubbing against the ground as he struggled, and the occasional gurgling sound coming from the basin.
Alina opened her mouth slightly, watching in amazement at the strange scene in front of her.
Every nerve in her body began to shake wildly abruptly as she heard what was being recited, and every heartbeat called for panic, and her whole body trembled involuntarily.
The Prophetic Bonus was hysterically telling her that she had to get out of here quickly, something terrifying was coming!
However, a stronger curiosity quickly took over her mind, her cheeks flushed with excitement, and she looked at Rogers as if she had discovered a treasure.
[Inform! You have attracted the attention of an existential being! γ
The honest merchant of the bottomless pit has cast his gaze upon you, and he has marveled at your abominable deeds that have not hesitated to push living beings into a fateful tragedy. γ
He has generously given you the privilege of high depravity, hoping that you can complete more beautiful transactions in the world. γ
[Inform! The Curtain of the World has been corrected to the present world, and the honest businessmen of the bottomless pit will not be able to cast their eyes again for a short time. γ
[Inform! The content of the mission "Correct Fate" has been changed due to force majeure. γ
[Inform! Mission accomplished! Rewards have been distributed! γ
When the prompt box kept popping up, night slowly fell, and Kevin gradually lost his movements.
Rogers calmly fished it out and placed it firmly on the ground beside him, then he half-knelt beside Kevin, crossed his hands directly above his sternum, and performed a strong chest compression.
In this world, the blood of the saint is a bug-like existence, and if he could, Rogers really didn't want to face Alice's revenge.
Since he didn't know why the task had been completed, he thought about whether he could stop the loss in time.
γName:Deedγ
[Genre: Fallen High Position Bonus]
[Source: Honest Businessman of the Bottomless Pit]
[Effect: Those who hold this bonus can tempt and incite those who want to make a contract with them, and the final interpretation of the content of the contract belongs to the person who holds the bonus.] γ
Rogers glanced at the ability introduction he had just acquired, and then put the tooltip back.
To be honest, he was a little regretful, thinking that it would be best to draw some bonuses that strengthened his own strength, or could be used to save his life.
"What did you do?! What is that fleeting feeling just now?! Alina crouched beside Rogers, her eyes fiery as she stared at him, her voice trembling and asking:
"This man's spirit has completely collapsed and there is no salvation. Answer me quickly! Were you just doing a sacrifice?! Why is there no mana fluctuation at all? β
Rogers ignored Alina's 100,000 whys as usual, pausing to press and pressing his fingers against Kevin's neck, surprised at the slight pulsation still under his skin.
The spirit is completely dissolved, I guess I have become a vegetative person......
He looked at the corners of Kevin's mouth, which was still overflowing with a little water, and couldn't stop muttering in his heart.
Once the task is complete, there is no way to open the taskbar to find out what has changed.
"There is a price to be paid for getting the truth." Rogers turned to look at Alina with a smile, and he reached into the void and pulled out a parchment roll.
"I remember you proposed that you would like to sign a contract to bind the gods to ensure that our respective secrets will not be leaked by the other party, I thought about it, so it is better to sign it now."
"I also added an extra agreement, if you are willing to provide me with some help that does not violate the bottom line of morality at the necessary time, then I will answer your questions."
Alina stared at the parchment scroll in front of her with some surprise, she had not felt any fluctuations in magic just now.
The scroll was inscribed with ancient texts, just like the deal Rogers had just mentioned.
"This is my perk, similar to the ability to bind the gods, but stronger than its binding effect, unless you can be promoted to a demigod, no one can violate it, including myself, you can use the prophetic bonus to test the truth of my words." Rutgers added.
"What you said is true, but ......" After activating the bonus to distinguish between the false and the real, Alina still hesitated, she always felt that there was something wrong with it.
"This is your only chance, you have so many questions about me, don't you want to be answered? Don't want to know what I just did? Just press the mudra and everything will work out. β
Rogers softened his voice as he shoved the parchment roll under Alina's hand, and before she knew it, her palm had pressed into the contract.
A burning sensation suddenly snaked through Alina's lower abdomen, as if it was engraved with some kind of pattern and mark.
Rogers then stood up satisfied, and with a flick of his hand, he put the contract away.
Although he is not yet able to use the Prophetic Bonus, he now has the ability to use Aliana, which is a good result.
Alina covered her lower abdomen with her hands, she had never heard of any contract that would leave a mark on a person's body after it was signed.
She gritted her teeth and got up, and although she didn't know why she signed it in a daze, the contents of the contract were not bad for her.
As long as you pay help that does not violate the bottom line of morality, you can exchange it for the mystery of your heart, and it can even be said that you have made a lot of money.
"I was indeed offering a sacrifice just now." Rogers pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the water stains on his cuffs.
"What else?" Alina gathered up her mood and waited expectantly for the following.
"No, the content of the contract only stipulates that your questions will be answered, and it does not say which one to answer, let alone answer all of them."
Rogers looked up at the darkening sky and replied nonchalantly, wondering what to do next.
Alina stared at Rogers in a daze, and when she saw that his refusal was not met with any contract backlash, Alina instantly understood that she had been trapped!
"You damn liar! Hand over the contract! I'm not signing it! β
Alina twisted Rogeth's arm with her hand, pinning him to the ground in an instant, and her other hand kept groping around him, trying to find the deception contract.
Rogers didn't expect that the other party's petite body could burst out with such great power, no matter what he did, he couldn't get rid of Alina's control.
Just like Kevin, he had to helplessly enjoy the bullying of fate.
"Ahem! Master Rogers, Miss Alice tried to break into the Earl's Court and was stopped by the doorman, would you like to go over and take a look? β
Hans walked quickly to the two of them, reporting with a complicated face.
Rogers took advantage of Aliana's attention to be diverted, a chrysalis broke free from underneath her, and quickly rushed in the direction of the gate of the Earl's Court, shouting before running:
"Go get Kevin a trained doctor! Take good care of him! β
Hans looked at the young master who was running away, and then looked back at Alina, who was full of anger and dissatisfaction, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and quite understood the girl's resentment.
Obviously, he was still playing with his fiancΓ©e just now, but he just heard the name of another woman, and he couldn't wait to get rid of the other party......
He respectfully bowed to Alina's chest, and then dragged Kevin away like a dead dog.
Hans didn't care about what happened to Kevin, he was just an arrogant and rude civilian, and if it weren't for the young master's orders, Kevin would have died a tragic death in prison.
He only had endless worries at the moment, as if he had foreseen the scene of the Earl's thunderous anger after he knew what the young master had done today.
"Alas, the young master is really finished."
Hans sighed inwardly.
