Working Prophet.

Chapter 518
The four-day competition has eliminated many people one after another, among them there are many masters like Ferdinand.

As a result, the strength of the remaining contestants is generally stronger, and the discussion about the ownership of the championship has become more and more intense. You can see red-faced people fighting for this everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The happiest thing is the big and small casinos in the city, because more and more gamblers come to bet, the casinos are overcrowded every day, and servants of some big families can be seen coming in and out from time to time.

And the amount bet by the masters behind them can probably make ordinary people dumbfounded. As the game progresses, of course, some people are happy and some are worried, and the odds are almost constantly changing.

The current top spot is still the Earth Bear, and he continues to lead with his almost overwhelming performance.

But No.2 has changed from Silver Knight to Ilea.

This little nobleman from the Western Region was first known for her great achievements in slaying dragons, and this time her performance in the martial arts tournament also severely slapped those doubters in the face.

We must know that when Ms. Rabbit first arrived in the capital, doubts about her reached their peak.

Because everyone found that she did not have the burly and strong physique in the drama, and that small body seemed unable to withstand a few punches at all, let alone the claws of the giant dragon, which obviously bears the name of the mountain of meat.

Even though she brought down the three young servant knights of the Royal Knights later, which eased the doubts a little, most people still don't think she can go too far in this tournament.

But after that, she won four matches in a row, and except for the one with the golden fly, which took a little longer, she won the remaining three matches very simply.

Her opponent in the last battle, the Sword of Daybreak of the Grafson family, was injured in the battle with her, and then went to seek treatment from the Church of Life. Priest Cornelia sent one of his men to stop the bleeding on the spot .

But according to the people around Daybreak Sword, his stomach still hurts, and he died shortly after returning to his residence.

This matter still caused some sensations, and the opponents who had fought against Ilea before also said that it was difficult for them to recover, because their bones were injured.

Only then did the big guy realize that the seemingly harmless female lord is also quite dark, not much worse than the Earth Bear.

This made the people who were going to fight her next feel terrified, the pipe that emits flames and loud noises is already difficult enough, not to mention the sudden appearance of white smoke.

In all fairness, the Sword of Daybreak had made enough preparations, but he still lost his life, and the others couldn't think of any coups to defeat the female lord for a while.

But the problem is that it is a bit unreasonable to admit defeat without even fighting.

Except for mercenaries like Gold Fly who didn't care about honor, the nobles who participated in the competition still had to care about face. They couldn't just think about themselves, but also the families behind them.

It is a very shameful behavior for nobles to be cowardly before fighting.

This puts some people in a dilemma. If they fight, they may die or become disabled.It doesn't work if you don't fight.

Crow is panicking now.

He and his friends went to find trouble with the female lord before, but was attacked by an old comrade who didn't speak martial arts, and he was beaten up and said nothing.

After that, because of the incident about the assassin, Ilea simply ignored them. The crow couldn't hold back, and even said a threatening sentence before leaving.

Said that he hoped to experience the martial arts of the female lord again in the martial arts competition.

No, is the wish coming true? Crow almost didn't cry when he learned that he would be Roshan's opponent in the next battle.

Too bad it wasn't tears of excitement.

He is still young, he doesn't want to die so early, and he doesn't want to suffer any injuries that are difficult to recover, so he can only leave the Royal Knights.

Although it is a bit difficult for him to become a regular now, it is impossible for Edward II to stop canonizing new knights for the rest of his life.

Didn’t His Majesty the Emperor take a fancy to that guy named Ferdinand before, and wanted him to be the head of the branch? After the tossing, he should be able to think of them, and even if Edward II intends to continue to lose his memory, other noble families will remind him .

In short, Crow feels that his future is quite bright, provided that he can overcome the current difficulty.

And just when he was worried about the next contest, Skinny Monkey found him and gave him an idea.

"What, you said you want me to beg Roshan?" The crow looked a little uncomfortable.

"I'm not begging, I'm going to discuss with her, let her put some water, don't be cruel, otherwise you will be crippled if you don't die." The thin monkey said, "You can move out of your family to scare her."

"Can this work?"

The crow expressed doubts about this. If Ilea really feared the family behind him like everyone else, she wouldn't be so rude to them that night.

"Then pay some more money. I heard that Roshan likes money very much. You pay some money, then pretend to fight her, and lose to her in the end. Anyway, it doesn't affect the final result. She will definitely agree." of."

The crow was a little moved by the words, "Then...then how much do you think it will cost?"

"Roshan is just a small nobleman in the western region, so her appetite shouldn't be too big, but she should have received some rewards for her success in slaying dragons before. She has a bit of family background. I think I still want seven or eight hundred golden lions. To be on the safe side, you can directly Give her a thousand."

"One thousand golden lions, this is not a small amount." Although Crow came from a big family, he is not the eldest son, and the amount he can withdraw is limited. In addition, he usually has a lot of socializing and entertainment, so he spends money quickly and has no one around him. Too much spare money.

I can't take out so much for a while.

Seeing him in a dilemma, Shouhou patted his chest and said, "You don't have to worry about the money. If you don't have enough, I will help you. We have been friends for so long. We can't just watch you die."

Hearing what he said, the crow was not only not moved, but asked with a dark face, "Who told you to come to me."

The smile on the thin monkey's face was a little stiff, "No, no one, we are just worried about you."

"Ha ha."

Born in the royal capital and from a noble family, Crow could be ignorant of those shady methods among the nobles. As soon as Skinny Monkey opened his mouth, he smelled a conspiracy.

Before contacting them again, Mad Dog and Blue Rose proposed to find trouble with Ilea and maintain the honor of the Royal Knights. Obviously, there is an invisible hand behind this, which has been secretly promoting the development of the matter.

Seeing that the crow didn't speak, the thin monkey urged again, "The contest is about to start, if you don't go find Roshan, it will be too late."

"Bring the money," Crow finally made up his mind, "You will pay for the thousand golden lions."
