460. Not very pleasant gamble
Chapter 461 - 460. A Not-so-Pleasant Gamble
【Ding~Madness +600】

【Ding~Memory Fragment +5】
Lloyd listened to a series of prompts in his ear, and it seemed that the graduate was probably really dead.
However, it didn't take much effort, and before the fang had completely fallen into it, he arrived in time according to the position provided by the ritual, and completed the execution with two strokes.
There will be no guilt, this fang ended up like this, and it was completely self-inflicted.
In fact, some earlier, although Lloyd was full of righteous indignation, he was restricted by the [contract], and it was inconvenient to make a direct move, so he could only play some tricks in the [story] and show that Mayer the words he had learned for many years immersed in the Internet.
As a result, this graduate actually attacked himself, and once again planted that seemingly harmless curse seed on himself, wanting to target himself like a trap for the Inquisitor.
Unfortunately, this time, Lloyd had already prepared in advance, and the moment his curse fell on him, the large number of rituals that had been arranged in the room before launched a fierce counterattack.
As the sadhana operates, the harmless curse is distorted and falls on the graduates themselves; And the same is true of the means he used to catalyze the curse, which is equivalent to returning the means used by the other party to harm Lloyd.
And because the other party's operation can successfully bypass the restrictions of the [contract], Lloyd's 'full return' through the ritual will naturally not be punished by the [contract].
And this is not an intact 'return', it is also mixed with various [distortion] effects.
The graduate was unaware of this, he was already in a state of separation from his mind and body, his reactions were slow in all aspects, and coupled with the various interferences of [Distortion], the whole person was completely immersed in the dream, and he didn't know what had happened to him.
He couldn't control the spiritual pollution caused by the curse, until the whole person fell into madness and began to transform into a monster, and [the story] no longer had effect on him, so that he was able to wake up from that beautiful dream.
And he, who has fallen into a monster, is naturally not within the protection of the [contract], so Lloyd rushed to the room where he stayed according to the retrospective positioning effect attached to the ritual, and personally executed this classmate.
Then he looked at the fragments of memories left by this guy, and learned the general cause and effect from some of them, knowing that this guy had actually killed a classmate before, so he was forced to come over and be a tool for that Mayer, so that the other party could protect him.
Then I saw him and Meyer colluding with each other, and devised this insidious and vicious plan, in order to win the game, he actually made the other two players into vegetative people......
Hehe......
When Lloyd saw this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a sneer.
Dare to shield the murderer, not to mention, but actually murder Mizkatok's active students?
It seems that he doesn't know how the previous evil god heir didn't exist......
It's time to let this old bastard know that we Mizkatok aren't to be messed with!
Although Lloyd was limited by the [Contract] and couldn't come forward in person, it was too easy to clean up a mere seventh-order.
Lloyd didn't stay where he was for long, and everything waited until the gamble was finally over and Olga Sr. could get the loot.
He left the highly deformed corpse in the room and went back to his room, waiting for contact from old Olga.
Those two old bastards lost so ugly, I'm afraid they will have to pull for a while before it ends, right?
Taking advantage of this time, Lloyd took out the memory fragment in front of the graduate and looked at it again.
This man's name is Sellers, and he has been mixing in Mitzkatokli for quite a long time, and finally completed the three disciplines of 'painting', 'curse', and 'pharmacy', and his talent should be quite good among ordinary people.
But such a talent is really not worth mentioning in Mizkatok, which has caused his rating to not go up, he is in the third grade, and he is still stuck in the awkward position of C+, and he can't go up or down, which is very embarrassing.
After a final trade-off, he chose to graduate and became a relatively rare third-year graduate.
But after coming out, he mixed very well, thanks to his status as a third-year student, he was very good at eating in the alumni association outside, which was quite like a fish in water.
If it weren't for the fact that he killed his classmates on impulse for a woman, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
Lloyd took a general look like this, and then noticed a detail, the classmate he killed was brutally murdered on the way to guide a recommended student to admission.
And the place where he did it happened to be the bright city where Lloyd was.
Combined with the time at that time, it happened to be not long ago, so the recommended student ......
It should be me, right? There were no new students who were recommended by others for admission during that time period, and even if there were, it wouldn't be so coincidental, and it was also a bright city.
So going around and around, the event actually completed a magical closed loop?
Lloyd was also in a complicated mood for a while, and it was precisely because of no one to guide him that he had a lot of 'accidents' when he entered the school, but it was precisely because of these 'accidents' that he was valued by Professor Lawrence and Dean Hazled, and then he was where he is today.
In the end, he went around in a circle, and he helped the unmasked guide complete his revenge.
Maybe the 'fate' thing really exists, right?
Lloyd sighed with emotion, and continued to read the rest of the man's memories.
Because the murder was too urgent and the attack was too ruthless, the murderer was soon discovered by the people of the alumni association, and immediately launched a fierce pursuit, almost succeeding several times, but he escaped to the limit, and injured several classmates of the alumni association in the process.
It's just that the woman he took with him didn't want to live this kind of fearful life, and proposed to break up, but he really loved the woman, so he chose to nod and agree.
When Lloyd saw this, he couldn't help but pout.
He felt that if he encountered this kind of thing, Wei Ya, Elolo, and Hiltina would definitely not leave him.
Needless to say, her sister will definitely be with her forever.
So it's quite ironic that this guy killed his classmates for the sake of a woman, and in the end the woman left him......
And after he returned to being single, he actually hid for a while in the ruined city of the Bright City?
This is not surprising in itself, the murderer chased Lloyd's guide to the Bright City, committed the crime here, and then took refuge in the abandoned city where no one cared about it, and it was logically fine.
But the problem is that there is no memory next, and the next memory jumps directly to the plot where he fled to the city of illusion and began to seek refuge in Mayer.
This memory loss made Lloyd a little puzzled.
Although memory fragments are just fragments, not a person's complete memory, but generally speaking, those important, impressive, and memorable things will basically not be missed, especially since he has just fallen, and his memory is quite fresh and not completely chaotic.
This is the pattern that Lloyd summed up after consulting many memory fragments through many channels, and there will definitely be no mistakes.
So this guy hid in the abandoned city for days, and didn't leave a single thing that impressed him?
That's not right, is it?
This guy remembers even the trivial things like his roommate soiling his clothes, having meaningless quarrels with classmates, and the taste of the restaurant being too unpalatable, and he has a good memory, not to mention, he is still the kind of stingy person.
If he didn't have any memories of a ghost like the Abandoned City, Lloyd wouldn't believe it.
And the other classmates of the alumni association couldn't let him go because he hid in the ruined city, and they would definitely chase him over, and the two sides should have a fight there, and finally forced him to escape to the city of illusion.
These memories are also gone......
Did he encounter something in the ruined city?
Lloyd rubbed his chin, and immediately thought of the chilling [Forgetting]
But if nothing else, this system should be promoted as a whole, and even the heirs of the evil gods who spread relevant knowledge have been blown up.
What's more, if it was affected by [Forgetting], then his memory would definitely be more incomplete, not as complete as it is now, but missing a single piece.
So what happened to him in the ruined city?
From another point of view, what happened to those classmates who chased and killed him that allowed this guy to escape to the city of illusion?
Lloyd was a little curious about this.
But before he had time to think about it, he felt the Xiuzhen wine bottle in his arms shake, and it was old Olga who sent a contact.
Lloyd hurriedly unscrewed the cap of the bottle, and heard the voice of old Olga float out:
"Okay, I've got all the things, let's go first, let's go out."
……………………
"Alas...... This is really a very unpleasant gamble, both the loser and the winner are very unhappy, and they have a grudge against it...... I knew I shouldn't have played with these two guys who didn't have any gambling products. ”
On the way back, the elder Olga sat in the back seat of the luxury steam car with Lloyd, and then shook his head with emotion.
He then gave Lloyd a brief description of the situation.
When the graduate turned into a monster and was driven over by Lloyd to solve it, there was no suspense about the outcome of this gamble.
The Jefferson, who was still colluding with Meyer in the front, also immediately 'jumped back' and demanded that the other party release his nephew as soon as possible.
After a stalemate, even though Mayer was unwilling and didn't want to let go, he didn't dare to violate the [contract], nor did he dare to make a feud with two seventh-order powerhouses at the same time, so he could only scold and choose to admit defeat and hand over his [story]
Although the process was very unpleasant, the old Olga still won after all, but it was very disappointing to win.
After that, a quarrel broke out between the three parties without accident, because the effect of the [Contract] would not disappear immediately with the end of the gambling game, and would continue for a period of time, so the three seventh-orders could only engage in a literary fight.
It was probably the elder Olga and Jefferson who accused Mayer of doing everything he could, and finally got a human life, while the other man was still unconscious and out of danger.
Not to be outdone, Meyer blamed Lloyd, saying that this kid had a problem, had a taboo system, and attracted spiritual pollution, so he killed the graduate, and he would definitely seek justice for him.
Jefferson actually believed this, and then 'verbally criticized' old Olga, and threatened to avenge his nephew if he could not recover his health.
Since this is the case, there is no talk at all, and after the three parties put down harsh words to each other, they broke up unhappily.
"You don't have to worry about this, after those two old things lose the [story], it will be difficult to pose any threat to you, and they won't dare to do anything to me, then you just need to live in my house for a while, and after I am promoted to the eighth order, you don't have to be afraid of them at all."
Old Olga was still persuading in a serious voice, and added some special conditions:
"You see, you can talk to my son quite well, our family is big, and the chef invited is also the best in the city, if you need it, I can also arrange for you to come over with the most beautiful girl in the city."
"Ahem...... That's not needed, it's just our previous agreement......"
"Haha, of course I won't forget, huh~"
Old Olga smiled and gave Lloyd a storage bag.
It's the kind produced by the City of Order, the space is not large, and it's slimy, but it does have the previously agreed [Veto] fifth-order materials inside, as well as a check with a large string of 0s.
It was all promised to Lloyd.
The share is not small, and the quality of those materials is excellent, whether it is the spirituality exuded on them, or their appearance, they are all grades that cannot be bought on the market.
It seems that old Olga is really not stingy when she should be generous, and she also attaches great importance to her friendship with Lloyd.
In this way, Lloyd's materials to complete the fifth [detachment] are also complete.
Then, of course, I will not live in someone else's house in the future, but I must hurry up and complete this long-brewing fifth [Detachment]
So he opened his mouth and politely refused:
"Thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to worry about my safety, but those two old things should worry about themselves......"
Lloyd had already thought that that Jefferson had not yet had a direct conflict with him, so he could let it go for a while, just be careful.
But that Mayer must pay the price for his crime of harboring the murderer and plotting to murder the lecturer of the Mitzkatok space department!
When this is over, I will contact the alumni association immediately.
By the way, I also have to figure out the question I was wondering about before, what happened to that graduate in the abandoned city?
"Is that so? It's okay, but for you, just a seventh-order, it really doesn't pose a threat. ”
Old Olga could only say with a little regret, and then took out another small bottle of Xiuzhen from his bosom and gave it to Lloyd by the way.
"These two are just enough to form a set of small toys for communication, although they are not very easy to use, but they are better than being hidden enough, so let's play with them."
It seems that he felt that this gamble was not easy, and it caused Lloyd to make a feud with others, so he took the initiative to increase Lloyd's reward.
Although it is what he calls a 'little toy', according to Lloyd's understanding, this kind of communication tool is very expensive on the market, especially this kind of style with a very good effect.
He roughly estimated that although these two small bottles could not be exchanged for a large villa, it was not a big problem to change a small villa.
Well, with this, I can 'talk on the phone' with Wei Ya again at night.
Lloyd smiled, pleased with the 'little toy', and then turned to ask:
"By the way, have you checked the two sets of [stories] you got? Nothing is wrong, right? ”
He was still quite worried about this, worried that his previous interference would affect the quality of [the story]?
As a result, old Olga smiled even brighter, and hurriedly said:
"Haha, the quality is beyond my expectations, and it's very complete, these two old things are the first time to participate in the gambling game, so the [story] they took out is all polished by them for many years, and it's much stronger than the one I lost before, but it's just ......"
As he spoke, he paused, then lowered his voice and asked very softly:
"In the [story] of the three of us, there is still some very high-level power, is that from ......?"
Old Olga didn't say it directly, but stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky, hinting at Lloyd's cheap uncle who was the supreme.
In fact, Lloyd didn't quite understand what he was talking about, so he could only reluctantly nod his head and ask Uncle Cheap to help him carry the pot, and then asked in a low voice:
"Will it affect your detachment?"
"Of course it will ......"
Old Olga nodded, then said:
"But it should be the influence of optimistic tendencies, and I can already feel that when I fuse these three [stories], with the help of that force, I can take my [stories] to the next level, and it should be stronger than Randolph's new [stories]."
As he spoke, he patted Lloyd on the shoulder again, and added:
"If the final result is really that ideal, I will definitely thank you very much."
"Haha, I hope so."
Lloyd nodded.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a vibration from the student handbook in his arms.
Hurriedly picked it up and saw that it was the former dean who sent a message:
"Come here."
The content is just three short words, and there is no cause or effect.
Lloyd then followed the driver and said:
"Please hurry up, I need to go back and pick up the little milk cat as soon as possible, and then go to meet the embodied Sage."
"Huh?"
Old Olga was stunned, his face showed some curiosity, but he didn't ask more, just asked the driver in front of him to step on the accelerator to the end.
So after some galloping, Lloyd first returned to the old Olga's manor, and found the cat house before.
If you leave the kitten here for three days, it won't be hungry and thin, will it? After all, I haven't eaten my cooking for three days......
Lloyd was still a little worried, but when he entered the door, he saw that the little milk cat was lying on the highest and most comfortable cat climbing frame, surrounded by various snacks that other cats paid tribute to, not to mention thin, the whole cat was visibly fat with the naked eye, like a ball.
Then, as soon as he saw Lloyd coming, he quickly got up and 'meowed' twice at the other cats below.
Then I saw the other cats overlapping each other, and set up a 'step' for it so that its little arms and legs could get off the cat's climbing frame.
As a result, although the little milk cat became a little rounder, its legs and feet did not grow at all, and finally it accidentally stepped on an empty step, like a fluffy ball, and rolled to Lloyd's feet.
Lloyd laughed and cried for a while, picked it up, and measured it with the palm of his hand.
Belch...... It didn't grow a few taels of meat at all, huh? It's still only the size of a palm, but the fluff on the body has become more, so it looks more rounded.
"It seems that the favorable conditions will not make you strong, you still have to exercise with me."
Lloyd said, scratching the kitten's head.
"Meow?"
The little milk cat showed a stunned expression, and hurriedly waved its little paws at the other cats below to say goodbye to its new friends.
For a while, the cat meows of 'meow meow' came and went, endlessly, interweaving a scene of relying on other things.
