Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 98 The Lord's First Time

"What's the matter? Why are you so angry?" Annie asked curiously.

Lina bowed slightly to her, "Miss Anne, this servant doesn't know what's going on, but he actually brought in the zigzag grass that the servant and the pigs ate. Fortunately, I found out in time that he didn't put it on the table."

[Zheluocao] is a wild vegetable that grows by the lake. It is also called dead spirit grass because it smells like floating corpses. Of course, ordinary people will not eat this stinky wild vegetable, but poor people will. Grab and eat as vegetables.

"Oh, this thing stinks." Annie frowned, and although the plate was still covered, there was still a stench oozing out, "Hurry up and take it down, and Lina, don't punish him either. , is it inevitable that people will make mistakes?"

But this caught Stannis' attention, and another bold idea conceived in his mind.

"I want to go out for convenience, Annie, you don't have to wait for me to eat." After speaking, he ran out quickly.

After going out the door again, he saw the dejected servant walking in front with a tray, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Hey, the big brother in front wait a minute." Stannis called him to stop.

The servant turned around in surprise, because he found that it was Miss Fourth's fiancé who took the initiative to talk to him, which had never happened before.

"What... what's the matter? Your Excellency." The servant said in fear, he thought that the other party was going to punish him for his mistake just now.

"It's nothing, I just want you to give me this plate of orchids."

The servant held up the plate and said nothing, because he didn't know what Stannis meant. Would this kind of noble eat this kind of food?

Seeing that there was no response from the other party, Stannis simply grabbed the dinner plate, but the moment he lifted the lid, an epic stench of rotting corpses rushed towards him, and Stannis almost fainted.

He quickly closed the lid, and it took him a long time to recover, "It's really an unforgettable stench, but it's just what I want."

He said to the servant again, "By the way, bring me more garlic and cheese, as much as possible."

The servant didn't know what was going on, but went to the kitchen to get what he needed.

Looking at the stinking food in front of him, Stannis felt that his chances of winning had greatly improved, and all he could do now was look forward to the decisive battle tomorrow morning.

Racecourse at noon on the second day
The fully armed Stannis headed to the duel venue with a helmet with a visor on his head - the racetrack, which can also be used as a gladiator.

His black-tech weapon was not finished yet, but Annie said that it would be ready and delivered in an hour, so he put on his armor and went to the duel venue alone for on-the-spot observation.

Along the way, a steady stream of people rushed forward in the same direction as him. They all heard the news of the duel and came early to feast their eyes.

After all, although the 'Dragon Raider' hasn't made a move for a long time, his reputation still hasn't dissipated.

"Place your bets! Place your bets! The duel between 'Dragon Raider' and 'Break the Iron Wall' is about to begin! Come and buy the winner!"

This duel by Stannis made the gambling industry in Baili City active, and a bunch of people held paper and pens in groups to study who to bet on.

From time to time on the road, people pulled people around to ask them to bet, and Stannis, who looked like a knight in armor, obviously would not be let go.

A monkey-like guy appeared beside Stannis, "My lord, do you want to buy some? Guaranteed to make money!"

No sound came from the helmet, and Stannis remained silent.

"I know, I know, noble knights can't participate in this kind of entertainment, but it doesn't matter, as far as I'm concerned, you just need to point your fingers."

The thin monkey took out a piece of crumpled paper with a few lines written on it.

"You are really lucky today. When you meet this heavyweight duel, both sides are prestigious knights. I guarantee you will enjoy watching it! Now the odds are 'thumping the iron wall' and Barrow wins at [-] to [-]."

"A draw is fifty to one."

"As for the 'Dragon Raider' Stannis, he pays [-] for a win. I recommend you buy Sir Justin, and the 'Dragon Raider' will make you a lot of money."

Stannis didn't expect his odds to be so low, which meant that basically everyone thought he would win.

"Look, who do you want to buy?" The thin monkey asked expectantly with a flattering smile.

Stannis began to think seriously. He hadn't participated in gambling since time travel. Anyway, it might be the first and last time. He wanted to experience it anyway.

The other party can't bet, otherwise, even if I bet correctly, I will become a dead body with no blessings to enjoy. Should I leave it to Robert to be happy?And he can't bet on it himself, he will definitely not do this kind of dishonorable behavior, and the odds are still so low.Then I had to bet on a draw. Although it was the most hopeless one, as long as I saved my character, I just needed to survive.

So he tapped the draw with his finger.

"Is it a tie? Then how much do you buy?"

He pulled down the money bag from the back of his ass and threw it all to the other party, because this might be the last time he spent money, so he wanted to spend it extravagantly.

The wild monkey excitedly poured out the money bag, counted the number, and then picked up a pen and wrote on a piece of red paper, "Twenty gold coins for a single win in a tie! My lord, what is your name?"

There was still nothing in the helmet.

But the other party already knew how to deal with this situation. He smeared some red mud on the ring and handed it to Stannis, "Don't tell me your name, please keep this ticket. If you win You can come out and exchange it with any one of us, we recognize votes but not people, so good luck to you!"

After speaking, this guy jumped up to sell in front of another person like a monkey.

Looking at the thin red ticket in his hand, Stannis felt that gambling is also a very profitable industry, and he could consider introducing the territory.

Soon, he was dragged into the arena by the flow of people, and the stands on the racetrack were full of people watching the excitement, it was estimated that there could be at least three to four thousand people.

It seemed that no one specially organized this duel event, and there was no one who greeted him specially, so Stannis found a relatively secluded place to sit down.

Although in another two or three hours he might be bleeding in the duel, but at this moment his heart was surprisingly peaceful.

Facing the upcoming duel for the first time in his life, he had no fear or excitement, as if his body no longer belonged to him.

He closed his eyes, and his soul flew up high as if peeling off, looking down at his body and sitting there, the crowd around shouted loudly, but he could neither hear nor touch, all of this was related to his soul irrelevant.

Is the dragon's magic starting to work?Let yourself be free from the burden of the flesh and observe the world with the vision of God.

However, shouldn't he observe his memory in the third person? Could it be that the confused dragon made a mistake, and more importantly, how should he get rid of this out-of-body state?
Suddenly, a sweet female voice came from beside my ears, "Brother Stan, why are you sitting here and falling asleep?"

He found a way out of the state.
