Victory in War
"'Knight of Terror Elite Hundred Slasher' is merely a mid-tier Gold, someone like Mach who's only one step away from being a Sword God, even if he were to face four high-level Gold warriors at once, would still have the upper hand. As for me, I wouldn't even have a chance of winning!" Kala sighed: "His level has already reached great heights, and it's been ages since we've seen a Specter-type... how wonderful it would be if we could discuss some matters with him..."
The king didn't seem to be in the mood to reason with him, he grabbed my sleeve and said: "I've thought it through, I'm officially quitting the gambling game, whether you win or lose is your business, it has nothing to do with me?"
"Are you... sure?!" The poor Taoist's voice trembled in a pretended nervous state!
"I'm certain! Definitely! And I swear on the honor of the royal family that it's all true!" The king said seriously: "Now, put all this away immediately!" As he spoke, he handed me a written wager.
These documents are issued by the notary office run by the church. Both parties to a bet deposit their stakes with the notary, and receive such a receipt. The winner can then use this receipt to settle accounts directly with the church! This is to prevent anyone from cheating or defaulting on debts! Otherwise, who would dare try to collect debts from one of the three great empires? In that case, no one would participate in such games! But after the church opened a notary office, this problem was solved. After all, who dares to default on debts owed to the church?!
"But I don't have that much cash on me now?" Poor Dao said with a pretended helpless tone.
"It doesn't matter, you're going to lose anyway, I'll just ask the Long family for it. After all, your family's business isn't bothered about this small amount of money!" The king forced out a fake smile to comfort me!
"Then I won't be polite!" The poor Dao quickly put the receipt into the spatial ring, and of course, to 'repay' Cara, the great demon master who had sealed me, I also very sincerely said to Cara: "Thank you!"
The king and Cara were both stunned at the same time! They looked at each other in shock.
"National Master, are you really sure that Mahler can win?" The king's suspicious gaze was fixed tightly on Cara's face!
"What's gotten into Cara?! He thought to himself, 'When did I offend this little ancestor?! Isn't she looking for trouble?! However, he still said to the king with a serious face: "I swear on my honor, I am absolutely certain~~~~"
He didn't say anything else, he just stood there with his mouth agape and a look of utter incredulity on his face!
The king also sensed something, and he immediately followed Kara's gaze! He was also stunned! Then he shouted at Kara in a tone that was completely devoid of dignity: "You, sir, your few words have cost me nearly 20 million! 20 million!"
Only the black smoke in the arena had gradually dispersed, and Krie was standing there leisurely, without a speck of dust on him! His opponent, known as the Earth Sword Saint, Mahre, was kneeling on one leg on the ground, barely able to support his swaying body with the hilt of his broken sword. His armor was in tatters, his shield completely shattered, and he was covered in wounds, his body a bloody mess!
Some strange black wreckage was scattered on the ground, proving the existence of the "Terror Knight Elite Hundred Slasher"! Because they were afraid of harming the spectators with sound wave-like attacks, the barriers here were all soundproof! Furthermore, the dark mist created by Kuri made it impossible for the audience to know what kind of intense battle was happening inside. But from the current situation, it can be confirmed that Mahiru lost! And he lost very badly!
Actually, I'm still quite clear about the whole process. After all, Kuri's soul is still here with me, and I can see the situation on the battlefield through his eyes! After casting "Dark Fog", Kuri quickly used "Shadow Shift" to change positions, and when Mah found that he couldn't find his correct position, he began to cast "Terror Knight Elite Hundred Man Slash". Here, Kuri's knowledge as a thousand-year-old witch is revealed. He uses lost super magic spells that have been passed down for ages, although they are only around level 7 or 8, the rank isn't particularly high, but the effect is excellent.
Seventh-level spell 'Berserk', can make the recipient in a state of frenzy, similar to the Berserker's frenzy, only with slightly worse effects, but without any side effects. In comparison, the ninth-level spell 'Evil Frenzy' is even more extraordinary, at the cost of consuming life force, it allows for endless and frantic attacks on enemies! It can be said that as long as this spell hits, it will be a fight to the death, even ordinary human soldiers with the blessing of 'Evil Frenzy' would dare to challenge the beastmen head-on! With these two spells, these 'Terror Knight Elite Hundred Slayers' should have the skills of a high-level golden warrior! Now this kind of spell is probably only known by Kuri on the entire continent.
Krie's performance was far from over, as he began to unleash a gruesome magical torment on Mach. The curse of 'Deep Wound' caused even the slightest graze from the large knives to open up massive gashes, and with the added curse of 'Double Pain', it made the normally stoic Mach cry out in agony! There was also the sinister 'Blindness Technique', which temporarily robbed Mach of his sight, leaving him disoriented and helpless as he was surrounded by the four large knives. The consequences were dire, to say the least. And then there was the 'Fear Technique' that could leave a person's mind reeling, the 'Soul Shattering Scream' that directly attacked one's soul, causing even the weakest of wills to succumb to fear and perish. Mach too felt his head spinning after being afflicted with it! Krie had used over ten different curses in total!
This time I've really struck gold, thought the poor Daoist with glee! After Mahe killed off a Terror Knight at the cost of his own life, he was thoroughly done for! Kri clearly wasn't satisfied yet, but since he didn't want his life, he sent the remaining Terror Knights back and then leisurely dispersed the Dark Fog.
The onlookers started shouting and arguing!
"Kill him!"
"What crap, Sword Saint, you made me lose so much money!"
"Kill him!"
The aristocrats who were suddenly caught off guard burst into furious curses!
"I surrender! Please spare my life!" The third prince of the Megurine Empire said to me in a painful tone.
"I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me!" I said with a smile. I knew what he was thinking, the Megelan Empire only had two Sword Saints, one of whom was already crippled, and if this one also became a problem, they would really be in trouble! The loss and blow to them would be immeasurable, whether on the battlefield or in terms of morale. That's why I dared to be so bold and make my move! I wasn't afraid he wouldn't submit!
"I'll add 200W more!" he gritted his teeth and said!
"Is this the price of a Sword Saint?" The poor Taoist asked disdainfully. In fact, I had another plan in mind - Mahe was my father's sworn enemy, and I was thinking whether or not to take this opportunity to completely eliminate the hidden danger!
"How much do you want?" he almost yelled!
"I want 100 Iron Blood War Horses, both male and female!" The poor Taoist lion opened his mouth wide and said!
"Ridiculous!" he said angrily: "This is absolutely impossible!"
"Think about it, Sword Saint, you're the only one left. Besides, I just want a horse, not a formula for raising them, so your secret is still safe!" The poor Taoist continued to tempt him!
The third prince lowered his head and began to think!
"Mahe is really stubborn, he wants to get up again! But if he falls down this time, he'll be completely finished! There's no way to save him!" The poor Taoist pointed at Mahe who was struggling on the ground.
"Alright! I'll take you on!" The Third Prince roared!
"Deal!" The poor Taoist laughed and said! In fact, I don't want to do anything to Mahe now, because the spirit he has been insisting on until now has won my respect. He is also a heroic hero who is undefeated in defeat! The poor Taoist couldn't bear it!
After that, things were simple. We ordered the people below to hand over the war horses and then found the referee together, asking to terminate the duel because I agreed to the Third Prince's request for surrender! The referee declared me the winner and signaled the mages to remove the barrier! At this time, I suddenly had another 'not very civilized' idea!
"Pilu, go and bring Ke Li down!" I deliberately said to Pilu in front of the Third Prince! And through soul communication, I gave Ke Li an order, "Now pretend to be weak and faint!"
"Really? Is he okay?" Piro asked in confusion! The Third Prince also looked at me strangely!
"You don't know, this is a desperate move he made before fainting, in fact he had already fainted earlier. You think he could really win against the Sword Saint?!" I said this to hide Kler's true strength and also to strike down that foolish prince, it was truly a two-for-one deal! But for that poor prince, it was a bit too cruel!
"Ah! Is that so? I'll go take a look!" Piro went over to take a look and indeed it was true. He lifted Kuri up with his arm around his waist and said, "Sir, he's really fainted, what should we do?"
"He's exhausted his magical energy, take him back to the hotel! Put him in his room and guard the door, don't let anyone disturb him!" The poor Taoist instructed: "Be careful not to let anyone with ill intentions harm him?"
"Yes!" Piru hugged Kuri and ran off!
"Ah!" The Third Prince's face was now a kaleidoscope of colors, flashing through red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. "I will not stand alongside you!" After finishing his sentence, he spat out a mouthful of hot blood! Then, he fell back into his father's arms!
"This child is young in years but big in temper, must he be so worked up over such a small matter? It seems that he still needs to be tempered!" The poor Daoist sighed with regret.
