Chapter 505: On Meritorious Deeds
For the overture from the head of the family, Midi accepted it without humility.
He knew very well that this kind of overture at this moment did not mean that the head of the family was really partial to him, but that he had shown enough strength to make the Death Scorpion think that he was worthy of protection.
If the Scorpion of Death is really towards Midi, then from the beginning, it should be directly stated, just like Verna did, instead of letting the people of the Red Blood Bat Family come out to question or even attack.
In the final analysis, it was the influence of the "Fighting King" Thor that was so great that as soon as Thor expressed his disgust for Midi, the attitude of the entire Death Scorpion was shaken.
In this huge family, if there is really anyone who can be regarded as their own person, I am afraid, only Verna.
Unexpectedly, this domineering, willful, arrogant and unreasonable woman would become her companion.
Midi glanced at the smiling Verna beside her, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"What are you looking at?" said Verna with an angry glance at Midi.
"Nothing, but anyway, thank you. Midi said earnestly.
"Hmph, don't be complacent here, you must know that this is just the beginning, and the real test will be after returning to the family next time. Verna looked away, and then there was a hint of anxiety in her tone.
In the final analysis, no matter what Midi does, he is a member of the Death Scorpion family after all, even if the Red Blood Bat unites the Flame Serpent and the Two-Headed Wolf to condemn together, in the end, the Death Scorpion will at least save Midi's life.
But within the family, Midi no longer has anyone to support him except for Verna, an ally, and whether or not he can be recognized by the top is actually the key to whether he can continue to move towards the Black Dragon Conference.
Now, the "King of Fighting" Thor who is favored by everyone has obviously had many contradictions with Midi, so for the next internal discussion within the family, Verna is the most worried.
Although she is the high priestess of the black dragon, she also has a certain right to speak, but first of all, her influence is not even as good as Thor's, as soon as Thor speaks, Midi will immediately become alone.
If the law enforcement elders and the like speak out against Xenophobic people who don't like Midi, then there is a good chance that Midi will be busy in vain.
After all, no matter how strong force is, it is difficult to take effect within the family, and if force is really used within the family, the only result will only be labeled as a traitor.
Even if Midi could kill an elder in one blow, would he be able to kill all the elders in an instant?
Apparently impossible.
That's why Verna was a little worried.
It's just that Midi hinted to her with her eyes that there was no need to panic.
I really don't know where this guy's confidence comes from.
Verna sighed inwardly.
Under the escort of heavy guards, the group soon returned to the huge cave where the Death Scorpion family was, and there was no superfluous ceremony, including Midi and Thor, and the fighters who entered the Crystal Dragon Castle were all directly brought into the central council hall by the high-ups.
The family chose these fighters to enter the Crystal Dragon Castle to undergo training and find inheritance, and at this moment, it was time to reward meritorious deeds and arrange the seats within the family.
As the first family in Mosoblay City, the Scorpion of Death has a huge influence.
In the selection process of this year's fighters, the fighters of the three major families ranked second, third, and fourth were almost dead, so it can even be said that once the seats within the family are arranged, it is equivalent to setting the seats of these fighters in Mosoblay City.
And how to arrange the two of Midi and Thor, this is what everyone is most concerned about.
"This time in the Crystal Dragon Castle trial, our Death Scorpion Family can be said to have won a great victory, but who has contributed the most and who has dragged his feet must be clearly explained here, so that we can accurately reward meritorious deeds. The Law Enforcement Elder spoke first.
He didn't even glance at Midi, so he nodded directly to Thor, and said with a pleasant face: "Thor, you are the master of this trial, let you explain the situation first." β
Thor stepped forward and said simply: "There is nothing to repeat about the process, just take stock of the loot." β
As he spoke, he took off the storage ring on his hand, activated it directly, and then took out all the loot in it.
These trophies were all obtained by the team of the Scorpion of Death, starting from the seventh floor of the underground dragon tower, and scavenging all the way down.
Of course, the ones that were suitable for the fighters' own use had been taken directly by the fighters, and the rest were handed over by Thor.
Although these trophies are all leftovers, they are also trophies from the Crystal Dragon Castle, and they are definitely considered fine products in this Mosoblay City.
Whether it's weapons, equipment, or those rare materials and potions, everything is a sight to behold.
And later, when Thor took out the seventh-order and eighth-order potions that had been exchanged for black flame coins from the Dragon Temple, there was only the sound of breathing left in the entire council hall.
Even the high-ranking members of the Death Scorpion Clan, whose eyes were above the top, couldn't help but glow in their eyes when they saw those potions that were enough to cause a bloody storm and rain in a row like this, as if they had seen a hungry wolf eating blood.
"Okay, well done, worthy of being the chief core disciple of our Death Scorpion Family, this trial, you have made a great contribution to the family, and you are completely worthy of a good reward and an example!"
"These are just additives, and that kind of thing is the real harvest of this trial. Thor smiled and pulled out another ring from his personal collection.
This ring is the ring that the Death Scorpion Family distributed to each family fighter at the beginning to collect the Black Dragon Remnant Monument.
The next moment, a faint light flashed, and the base of the huge black dragon remnant monument, which was more than a meter long, had already appeared in the conference hall.
At the same time, a vast and ancient dragon's breath spread out in all directions.
This is still when the Black Dragon Remnant Monument has not been activated, if you wait until the Remnant Monument is activated, how strong will this aura be?
The moment he saw this black dragon remnant monument, even the head of the family, who had been sitting silently on the main seat, was finally moved, and the light in his eyes flickered.
Even the head of the family was moved, now, the victory and defeat have been divided, right?
The high-level people present suddenly had the same idea in their hearts.
Although Midi may also come up with a lot of good things, however, since Thor has taken the position, then, in order to follow Thor's wishes, it is likely that Midi will be directly beaten to the bottom.
Of course, there is no need to worry about your life, but I am afraid that you will not be able to get the qualification of a fighter of the Black Dragon Conference.
As for Verna, what she wanted most was this black dragon remnant monument, but at this moment, seeing that the person who took out the remnant monument turned out to be Thor, Verna's eyes suddenly flashed with disappointment and sadness.
How nice it would be if the person who got this black dragon remnant monument was Midi!
The Black Dragon Priestess couldn't help but think so, not only because she had asked Midi to help get some of the shards, but also because she also hoped that Midi would win in the judgment within the family.
But now......
Just as the priestess was secretly hurting herself, a voice rang out.
"Thor has really done a good job, and with this base, it will be much easier to place the monument. β
It was Midi who spoke, as if he were completely unaffected by the atmosphere in the chamber, and spoke in a calm, if not slightly condescending, tone, as if he were judging Thor's goodness or badness.
The others looked at Midi with idiot looks.
If you lose, you lose, and if you lose, you have to provoke the "fighting king" Thor in this tone, is this looking for death?
It's just that Thor himself, who was provoked, didn't say anything, just snorted coldly.
Midi only smiled slightly, and took out an identical ring from her bosom.
Another glimmer of light flashed, and in the meeting hall, a black dragon remnant tablet appeared again.
Only this time, it was not the base, but the body of the stele with the most inscriptions engraved.
The length is not one meter, but more than three meters!
If at that moment just now, the dragon's breath that rushed to the face could be described as vast, then at this moment, the concentration of this dragon's breath was simply suffocating!
In an instant, those elders could no longer care about their faces, and one by one they sat down on the spot and began to greedily absorb these breaths!
Hearing only a snapping sound, the head of the family had already stood up excitedly, directly stepped on the hard ground under his feet, and then shook his body, and he had already reached the body of the stele of the black dragon remnant, and then directly touched the stele with his hand, as if he was stroking his lover!
"Good, very good, very good! Midi, you have done a very good job! On behalf of the entire Death Scorpion family, I would like to thank you!"
Then, he laughed uncontrollably regardless of his manners, and said, "With this dragon tablet, plus the base, our Death Scorpion family can prosper for another thousand years, and it is even possible to break away from Mosoblay City and become a temple!"
Temple?
Midi's heart moved slightly.
It was the first time he had heard of the word "temple", and it sounded like a higher level of existence than the city.
However, it was not a good time to ask in this council hall, so Midi only made a secret note and did not say much.
Thor, who was on the side, snorted heavily, and said: "Midi, don't be too proud! Don't forget jì, this black dragon remnant monument, but there is a 71-level corpse horned dragon guarding it, if I hadn't led the corpse horned dragon away, how could you get this monument body with your ability alone?
Is that so?
Midi sneered in her heart.
This Tuo Erming knew that Midi was holding the largest part of the dragon stele, but he was still in this meeting hall, and took out his dragon stele, which turned out to be a decision, to take away one more share of the credit for the dragon stele, at least to achieve the Cheng dΓΉ of equal sharing between the two sides.
In this way, one of Midi's biggest advantages was invisibly dissolved by him.
Sure enough, as expected by the same midi, as soon as Thor's words fell, the voice of the law enforcement elder also sounded: "Since the two sides worked together to get the two dragon tablets, it is natural that there are big and small, I think, the credit of this monument body and the stele base should be counted together!"
