"Saleret... you died so miserably!"
Rein was grief-stricken. He had hung out with Saleret for a while, shared a desk, and visited brothels together. With a close friend about to die, it's hard not to feel a bit sad.
The roasted meat Archer made was delicious, and the wine brought by Mulong Capital was quite good too. It should have been double the happiness, so why did it turn out like this?
"Brother Dao is not dead yet, damn it!"
Liszt was speechless, wondering if this brain-dead guy was also telling everyone he was dead when he wasn't around.
On the broadcast, Brother Dao was still fighting with Cowgirl.
"What's the use of winning? Those two guys from the Far East are too fierce. Isn't Wen Kui from the Far East? Get him to bring a few brothers and invade the Narrow Sea, damn it!"
Rein believed that as one of the Four Kings of the Underworld, Giant Whale Guest must have plenty of lackeys to suppress and dominate, to climb solo, hunt, and last long!
If Rein hadn't mentioned it, Liszt would have almost forgotten about his old buddies who helped with the coup against Lord Dor, Master Knight Qi Li, and Wen Kui, who were top-notch at the beginning of the year.
Doringger had plenty of friends outside too, but the Undead Pirates and the Wave Suppression Pirate Group, after the Golden Dragon attacked, accomplished the task by driving off Lord Dor's reinforcements.
Even though the pressure wasn't as high as on the main battlefield, the secondary battlefield was certainly a bloody mess too; these two good pals' contributions were underestimated.
Wen Kui suffered from illiteracy, and Master Qi Li suffered from a lack of internet thinking.
We must find a way to use them hard. Back then, it was all about brotherhood and camaraderie; now we must control it hard and get them on board.
"Invasion? Not even pretending anymore, huh!"
Shadi, with a face full of embarrassment.
"You're right; when heading to Narrow Sea, we must call Qi Li and Wen Kui along. Even though we gave Master Qi Li a fishing island to manage, and Wen Kui is now living large, as we've climbed so high, these two must feel imbalanced. We need to arrange projects immediately! They'll surely agree, with lots of enthusiasm."
Liszt figured Qi Li must be cursing him every day on the fishing island.
But there's no other way. Although Qi Li also holds shares, the guy lacks financial power, and initial funds fell short.
Compared to ordinary folks, he's explosively rich, but pirates are greedy by nature, never satisfied, and staying on the island doesn't sit well with him.
"Aren't you from the Far East too? Why don't you have the explosively hot qigong?"
Rein questioned Liszt, pulling a Saiyan face, "Kamehameha!"
"Special abilities, mind control, more badass than qigong! Sword Hero Chronicles, Brainwashing Sword!"
Chuan Che also got the hint, even though Qi Li and Wen Kui were still in East Sea, the power of the Brainwashing Sword had already reached them.
He didn't understand what Transformation Skill was before.
Earlier this year, Chuan Che was by Celeste's side, originally to abduct Liszt, but damn it, first Celeste got mind-controlled and went into heat, and then he got led by this group to the Cloud Palace to visit brothels, unknowingly also getting mind-controlled. Su Yizhana was even brainwashed.
"I see! It all makes sense now. The Junlin Sword is the Brainwashing Sword, and the reason Liszt isn't cursed is because he directly encountered an Artifact Spirit!"
Rein spoke with a serious tone.
Liszt's eyelids twitched, damn it, Artifact Spirit, he really needed to control Rein better, because this guy now understood even more than he did.
Listening to the broadcast.
"This Lady of Golden Land is quite fierce, didn't take that long against that Heavenly Slaughter guy."
Liszt originally thought two women and a small thief would be easy to deal with.
But Saleret really is an ultimate loser, sometimes you can't help but believe in fate, as this guy is destined to suffer, an unfortunate scapegoat, drawing the worst possible lots all the time.
Even if you make it, you still have to deal with that qigong guy from earlier, the Sword King's top student was made into an idiot.
You wouldn't have known otherwise, but once you ask, it becomes frightening.
Shadi once went to the Far East to study qigong, but he hadn't heard of this character. However, his temporary partner, Yakai Chiyoko, had heard of this person, known for being a very famous figure in Far East's qigong sects, known for kicking dojo halls before disappearing into the shadows to become an assassin. Yakai Chiyoko had been to places that had been kicked around, and this guy is truly something else.
But Chiyoko's temporary partner Yakai Chiyoko had heard about him, saying he was a well-known figure in the Far East's qigong sects, famous for kicking down dojo halls before disappearing to become an assassin. He had been at places Yakai Chiyoko had been stationed, and his real name was Quan Jiu, while "Shadow of Death" was a nickname he earned later.
The key is that not only does he know qigong, but he also likes to fool around with knives, guns, and cannons.
"Of course, Marian is, after all, the Evgeny Consortium's chief security consultant."
Chuan Che answered.
Lady of Golden Land got her name this way, by blowing her cover, the Evgeny Consortium has to shell out gold coins loudly.
Although many people who emerge in Continent Martial Arts Competition seem unknown, many are quite renowned in their respective circles.
"Hmm? You know her?"
Liszt was surprised, just like Rein, who used to be an adventurer and knew a bit about everything, Chuan Che as a Hall Adventurer must be a pro in the gossip field.
"Not knowing her, per se, just met her once when I was planning to buy some financial funds or something and happened to run into her."
Chuan Che replied.
No one needed to think; Chuan Che must have been bankrupt enough to turn into an idiot, else he wouldn't have become the "scapegoat" in Lostra's intelligence department, with Alan Royal Court cleaning up the Dragon Thief members, starting with the ringleader, Chuan Che, the target on the surface.
"Is it true what they say on the adventurer's guild channel, that she has a ridiculously exaggerated body?"
Shadi heard she's a super "Big Car," the kind normal people have to escape from by the skin of their teeth.
Everyone's eyes turned to Garscek collectively, their thoughts unspoken, wondering how she compared.
"Are you all courting death?"
Garscek's forehead pulsed with veins, strictly speaking, as the largest shareholder, he was technically the chairman of the Black Sail Trading Company, now East Sea International.
Chuan Che could only awkwardly shake his head.
No way, Marian is ultimately human, standing about 1.9 meters, still quite unlike this heavyweight on another level.
"What's going on, isn't Brother Dao still in a hard battle?"
Liszt listened to the broadcast, what's wrong, weren't you invincible in the tower, able to duel with Brother Sha for so long, stalling until Celeste's group arrived.
Now it's a struggle, going to be a tough one, later there's still that qigong guy, damn it.
"If it's a tough battle, then Saleret is going to win."
Morison concluded.
Having fought Saleret, he knew how formidable he was, definitely a top-tier fighter. Since Saleret was struggling, it showed that the opponent was likewise straining, not yet taking off his mask, meaning he hadn't moved to the Second Rank.
Saleret was already winning.
Morison was also curious about how Saleret looked, convinced that on that open-air platform, he held rag parties all day, and taking off the mask revealed an ugly face, feeling sorry for those sisters under Doringger. Saleret should really die, really go to hell.
On the other side.
Marian really didn't want to fight the qigong guy from earlier; those gang bosses at the consortium were just too carried away, that's why she left to seek a new job, top sixteen is enough.
Since Ghost Eye Mad Blade is so eager to die, she better let him have the chance.
[Ghost Eye Mad Blade suddenly paused, indicating that Lady of Golden Land, Marian, chose to concede. Ghost Eye Mad Blade unusually agreed to the result, not advancing further. It's either to conserve strength for the next battles or... was captivated by Marian? Now, let's have the contestant Saleret return to the arena to rest, as we prepare for the last battle of the first half, locking down the championship finalist, who can compete with Gedre for the championship's peak? So exciting...]
"Haha, just as I thought, Saleret is purely an evil spirit."
Morison pointed with a Donnie Yen face.
It shows only three matches remain before the intermission variety show, where that woman will be present.
That man, too...
Arriving at the battlefield!
