The hero who saves the world in the first eye, and the devil king in the second eye

Chapter 239 The demons will make them wake up
"Damn it, where did this bastard come from!"

"Quick, look, it's over! Another one of our people was knocked down by him, and now the master's plan is completely disrupted!"

"What are the odds for the next game?"

"It's still going up, one to five, no, it's already one to seven!"

"Damn it! How can we make money if these people bet all on this bastard!"

"How are you doing over there? Have you found any information about this person?"

"I can't find him. I send people to follow him but they can't contact him even if they want to. He always seems to disappear in the blink of an eye!"

Freya, who was in plain clothes, sneaked closer to these "audiences" who looked anxious.

She used magic to eavesdrop on these people's conversations.

Odds?

Bet?

Through a few keywords, Freya almost understood their identities.

Organized by the legendary Archmage Melvin, this is an absolutely world-wide magic competition that brings together countless talented monsters. Such a grand competition naturally involves gambling.

Even Freya, who is not interested in this aspect at all, has heard about it.

Gambling like this is not illegal.

There are even several nobles who have joined forces to set up a platform that is comparable to an official one.

In every game, a large number of viewers will place bets, and the official will give odds based on the players' various strengths, identity background, comprehensive performance, etc.

As the competition goes on, it becomes more and more intense, and the transaction volume in each game is extremely huge. It can be said that it contains huge interests.

Freya continued to think along this path, and soon understood.

Some of the nobles are making false claims.

They have bribed several players to mix among the contestants, allowing Player A to crush them all the way and Player B to always win by chance.

In this way, when players AB meet, there will be a huge odds difference, and most viewers will buy A.

Then, as long as A deliberately loses to B, then as the banker behind the scenes, they can make a lot of money and pocket everyone's money.

but.

With the appearance of Lord Brave, their "fake match" plan went bankrupt.

It's like player A who was supposed to meet player B was dealt with by the brave man before he even met player B.

Coupled with the unbeatable record of victory shown by the Brave Lord, everyone became fanatical and bet wildly on the Brave Lord. They could win every time, which made the nobles unable to sit still.

"The master said that this problem must be solved."

"That's right, with him causing trouble here, there's nothing the village can do."

"So what do you mean, find a few brothers to take action directly after the game?"

"Do it? No, no, no, that's too low-level."

One of the leaders shook his head at his subordinates.

Judging from Liao Yu's current performance, they really don't know his strength. What if he goes head-to-head and overturns.

The "master" had taught them a better way.

"How are the preparations at the newspaper office going?"

"The manuscript has been written, and I spent a lot of money to find several editors. I have already arranged a false identity for that bastard."

"Continue to send more people to places where people gather, such as taverns and hotels, to spread some news. The false identity that the master arranged for this bastard must be confirmed."

"Well, once this false identity is exposed, as a criminal, I will openly lead people to protest. Even if the official dares to let him compete, we can remove this person from the players' bets."

"Humph, this is what happens if you dare to go against "Master"! "

"The boss is right. Using force is too low-level. It's just a matter of ruining his reputation. This is easy for the master."

Freya, who secretly overheard this, clenched her fists angrily.

She then related the scenes in the "Illusion". The brave men in the competition were targeted by all parties, and they were even about to be kicked out of the competition. The conspiracy continued, and it turned out that this was the root of it!
But what to do now?
Freya knew that she had to endure it. It was useless for her to arrest these minions now. If she wanted to find out the master behind them, she still had to mobilize higher-level forces.

Thinking of this, Freya stopped eavesdropping and acted immediately before the other party's plan was launched, preparing to send a message to the Glory Temple to ask for the help of the elders.

Meanwhile on the other side.After completing today's schedule, Liao Yu did not go back to the hotel, but went to Melvin's mage tower.

Liao Yu had already thought of these things that even Freya could discover.

might as well say
No wonder.

In the game, I only thought about fighting and leveling up. I never thought about caring about my reputation or anything else, so I allowed the other party's plan to ferment step by step.

The hallucination Freya saw at that time was actually correct.

That's the real plot of the week's episode.

Gambling is actually just one of them.

Later in the evolution, money no longer matters. More and more people, families and forces are greedy for the secret of themselves, who can quickly upgrade and grow as a "player".

Looking back now, he is defined as a heinous person in the game. It is true that part of it is his immoral behavior, but most of it is definitely the public opinion deliberately guided by the forces behind the scenes in order to force him to submit.

"You're here, and there are five more reports against you today."

Melvin handed a stack of reports to Liao Yu.

After Liao Yu looked through it, almost all of them were dissatisfied with him as a "mysterious person" and asked the officials to disqualify him from the competition or force him to reveal his identity.

Now this pressure is nothing to Melvin.

But as long as Liao Yu continues to play and shows more strength, the ill will towards him will only increase.

"So, is that little branch you have really a legendary weapon?"

Faced with Melvin's teasing, Liao Yu shrugged and broke it easily in front of Melvin.

"Well, it looks like the Duke of Nashville's hopes are gone."

Melvin shook his head and burned another secret letter in his hand to ashes.

The Nashville he mentioned was a powerful grand duke from a neighboring country. Now he was interested in the twig in Liao Yu's hand and wanted to spend a lot of money to get it.

"You really don't want me to arrange an identity for you? This will save you a lot of trouble."

Melvin asked Liao Yu again.

Although he didn't understand why Liao Yu insisted on participating in this competition even though he already had the strength to crush them.

But he knows that ordinary people are not guilty and those who possess a jade are guilty.

If Liao Yu keeps acting mysterious like this, it will only make him a piece of cake with no background in the eyes of the world, which will attract the greed and malice of countless forces who want to take away everything from these dark horses.

Melvin's prediction was indeed correct.

Liao Yu recalled the plot of the first episode. If Melvin hadn't come forward in the end to protect him and accept him as a disciple, the rest of the forces who wanted to "eat" him would never have given up.

Among them were the Grand Duke of a country just now, as well as other senior officials of the Fate Orbit Sect.

No exaggeration to say.

Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that before the demons came, I, the brave man, was indeed the one who was shouted at and beaten by everyone.

At that time, my in-game self was quite happy about it.

After all, the protagonist can't do anything without enemies. Those who come to trouble him are just experience packs anyway.

But at that time he was only thinking about himself.

But he never thought about the saint who was silently working for him behind the scenes. He never thought about the pressure Freya was under. She must be trying her best to defend herself, but she failed again and again, and she would probably be raped. People use the label of "associate" and continue to insult.

So this time.
"No need, don't worry, these guys won't be around for long."

"Liao Yu, I have to remind you that the forces involved are complicated and cannot be solved by just killing one or two. They are probably involved in a region, a religion, or even a country. Not even I can solve it. Easy to deal with.”

"I know, and I don't want to solve it myself."

"What do you mean?"

Melvin suddenly stopped talking, because he followed Liao Yu's gaze and looked at the observatory he used to observe the demons. There was a countdown on it indicating that the demons were getting closer and closer.

"Wait, you don't mean to"

Liao Yu nodded and said calmly: "I believe that the demons will make them wake up to the principles that humans cannot teach."
