“I told him that if he wears this mask, he will become Saab, enjoy power, and pay the price. The real Saab will not give up his dignity and let you laugh.”

Saab kicked the corpse away and smiled at Lorenzo, but the smile made Lorenzo scared, he had never thought it would be like this.

“Surprised, isn’t it? The real Saab is a deformity, a dwarf.”

Saab didn’t seem to be surprised by Lorenzo’s surprised gaze, or that he had seen too many such gazes in his life, and he was used to it.

Stretching out his 5 short arms, his body was distorted by the accumulation of flesh and fragile skeleton, and his internal organs were squeezed into this small body. He was panting slightly because of the swing of the sword just now, and his thick fingers struggled to grab the blood. The soaked cards, he looks so bloated, but it doesn’t matter.

“I hope you are not unhappy because of my substitute. After all, I am the owner of Green Shark and want to rule a group of outlaws. The dwarf’s body is not very useful and it is difficult to deter subordinates, let alone I am a Viking…Viking Dwarf people are ridiculous, right.”

Saab lightly saying, it is obviously a sad thing, but his speaking of which is not like his own story.

“Compared to being ridiculous, I think it’s… great. It’s pretty powerful to command a group of outlaws with this body.”

Lorenzo said sincerely.

Saab not at all is happy because of Lorenzo’s praise, but said in a tranquil voice.

“What about you? Mr. Lorenzo Holmes, I am curious why you are so confident to beat him. As long as the lucky Goddess deviates from you a little bit, your head will explode completely. This is not just what lucky fearless can do.”

It is a bet on the edge of death, like dancing with Death God, only pure madness can be controlled.

“Eyes, his eyes.”

Lorenzo pointed to his eyes, the gray-blue pupils were bright, reflecting the bloody gaming table.

“That guy wants to win too much, wants to win crazy. As a boss, he should do Megatron 8-square, but his domineering is too cowardly. I have studied acting. He is not a qualified actor, of course he is not a qualified. Gamblers, real gamblers will not retreat, the chips in their hands are all they have.”

Lorenzo had seen through the substitute long ago, but he thought it was just a small boss who was not worth worrying about, but apparently the real Saab made things more complicated after the appearance.

“You seem to like gambling, but I have never seen you in a casino.”

Saab didn’t seem to be hostile, and asked while shuffling the cards, the music in the hall was still the same, people were immersed in the warm bustling, the death of the double did not attract anyone’s attention.

“Bet is a good thing, it can reverse the situation, even with only one coin, it is possible to win the entire Kingdom.”

Fingers gently rubbed the brand new butcher coin, Lorenzo replied.

“But a friend of mine once said to me that this thing of luck is a finite amount. The luck of a person’s life is fixed. Maybe you should be hit and killed by a carriage today, but before you hit you Fortunately, he fell and avoided the attack of Death God.

Just like a soldier on the battlefield, he can avoid countless bullets only because of luck, but when you run out of luck, there will be a deadly bullet that will take your life. My friend is the best gambler I have ever seen, but he rarely gambles, saying it is to accumulate his luck. “

Saab nodded, he has also heard stories like this, but he has a different feeling today.

“What about your friend? Did he win the entire Kingdom?”

“No, he exhausted his luck in a battle. The broken shrapnel cut into the only gap in his armor, piercing his artery, and the strongest armor became his grave.”

Lorenzo said slowly, the expression hasn’t changed, it seems that for him is just a forgotten past.

“I also like to gamble, but what I like is the feeling of wandering between life and death, taking the spoils of war back before Death God’s knife falls.”

Saying that Saab licked her dry lips, it was a scarlet tongue, as if he had blood in his mouth, and his messy teeth were like sharks. Eve sat aside and dared not speak. Everything tonight is beyond her knowledge. The world.

“You also know that with a deformity like me, it is difficult to find the feeling of being alive in life. Everyone thinks that you are an unknown symbol and no one cares about you. But on the edge of death, you have a wrong face with Death God, saying Maybe you will flick his black robe, and you are still alive, the shocking stimulus is great, the blood is boiling, and the dying heart is beating again!”

Saab said excitedly, his awkward hand slapped the table top with air, like a deformed giant baby with a weird weirdness.

“So did you lose that?”

Lorenzo asked.

“Do you mean this?”

Saab stopped tapping the table as he said, and stretched out his hands, which were incomplete palms.

Both palms are missing to varying degrees. The entire finger bone is cut off, leaving 2 or 2 fingers on it, but even so, he is still flexible, and the dazzling shuffle comes from this incompleteness. .

“Yeah. No gambler can’t lose, but fortunately, my opponents are good guys. They left my thumb and middle finger so that I can continue to hold the sword… But it doesn’t matter, I always win in the end. come back.”

I picked up the stabbing sword with only a few fingers. It was a slender and light sword without any decoration or even a grid. It was only composed of the blade and the hilt. The weight of the stabbing sword was greatly increased under this design. Decrease, and only in this way can Saab command a deadly and rapid sword with a few hands.

“It’s really good today, are you still playing a game?”

“But I have won.”

“That’s my stand-in.”

“But he is also Saab, isn’t he?”

The cold conversation, the two people let no one, the rapier and the gun, all the chips were placed on the blood-stained gaming table.

Saab was silent for a while, then said.

“Regarding what happened the other day, it was a person named Reverend. He asked us to do it in order to cover the group from hunting down.”

“Who is that Reverend.”

“I don’t know, I only know that he has many identities, but they are all high-status identities, whether in Irvine or in other countries.”

“Where are those people?”

“This is the second question, Mr. Holmes.”

Saab smiled grimly under the half of the mask, spread the card neatly in front of Lorenzo, the blood on it hadn’t dried up yet, with a strange feeling.

“So do you want to play another round?”

……

It was a dead silence. Although the air was warm and the music was exciting, the atmosphere on this high platform was like an ice cellar.

Saab has already redeemed his dignity, but that’s all. If you want more information, you have to join the game again. Lorenzo’s eyes drooped, he was thinking. It was obvious that this time was completely different from before. This time he faced the real Saab, a real gambler.

“Enough is enough.”

Eve whispered that Princess of Phoenix’s shadow of the world was limited to the family’s narrative of war, and she felt uneasy that she had never felt before.

But Lorenzo ignored her. Like Eve, Lorenzo was equally upset, but unlike Eve’s upset, Lorenzo really cared about the whole thing.

The mysterious goods from the north have affected Burlau and Saab, as well as the people hiding deeper in the darkness. Of course, the most important thing is what Lorenzo saw in Spirit Vision, the body of the mutation, the erected lighthouse, and the weird Everything that was ferocious crawled out of the long-term memory, trying to bring him back to that rainy night.

He needs to know the truth.

“What is the bet?”

Under the brass mask, the voice is calm and powerful, like iron.

So there was a sincere smile under the bull’s mask, and Saab clapped his hands vigorously. The laughter was harsh and crazy, like the last carnival in the last days. He jumped off the chair violently, and his short body staggered to the edge of the high platform, looking down at the grand banquet like a king.

“You!”

He roared loudly, the dancing crowd stopped looking at the short man on the high platform. It was very different from the Saab in their impression, but they didn’t care. They only recognized the mask at the banquet, who was wearing the bull The mask is Master.

Saab is very happy, any pleasure the dying person gets will become huge, he shouted.

“The prom begins!”

With the sound resounding, the orchestra’s repertoire changed instantly. The luxurious and beautiful of the past is different. The melody at this time is full of weirdness and mourning. The violinists are forgotten to pull the strings, just like the iron saw cutting the living, the music Go out belongs to the wailing of humanity.

The attendants did not know where they came from. The tray was no longer gold and jewelry but filled with hallucinogen. The guests picked it up at will, and then exposed the inside of the wrist, which should have been smooth skin, but now cloth It was full of needles and injected it skillfully, so the door of paradise opened to fallen mortals.

It was the carnival before the end, abandoning all ethics and morality, and the dark side of human nature opened. Eve stared at all this blankly. For the girl, this was the beginning of the nightmare. The air was filled with the smell of blood, and then the blood was restless, trying to join the depraved carnival inside.

“Calm down the detective, this is just the beginning.”

The icy hand held her hand, it felt like a frozen ice cube, awakening Eve from the psychedelic inside.

“Keep awake, you don’t want to be like them, right.”

Lorenzo’s voice sounded, Eve was awakened from a dream, and then with intense breathing, sweat soaked through the mask.

“What’s wrong with me.”

Eve asked with some fear, the weird feeling just now, she felt that the entire world was shattered before her eyes, and then recast into a weird appearance.

“Hallucinogen, there should be a lot of its volatiles in the air, the impact is not too big.”

It was the sharp short sword that was pulled out from Eve’s dress. Lorenzo stuffed it into Eve’s hand. Holding the weapon tightly might make the girl rest assured.

“So this is what the prom really looks like? A big bliss.”

The gray-blue pupils were still clear, and Lorenzo was not disturbed by the hallucinogen contained in the air.

“Yes, all the people who come here are rich, and wealth can no longer satisfy them.”

Before Saab walked down the edge of the high platform and returned to the gaming table, he took out a coin from his mutilated palm and placed it in the center of the two.

“I will answer you one question once you win me.” Saab stretched out his right hand and raised his index finger.

“What if I lose?”

“You answer me a question.”

“Didn’t expect I will be so liked by you.” Lorenzo was a little surprised. He thought that someone like Saab would ask Lorenzo to chop off his finger.

“After all, you are the Ironthorn of Burlau, Mr. Holmes. In a sense, it is because of you that I became Saab and the leader of Green Shark. You are my benefactor.”

Saab’s eyes didn’t lie, and his achievements today are partly due to Lorenzo.

“To be honest, it was a bit beyond my expectation.” Lorenzo couldn’t believe it.

“This is natural. Eastern people often say this. They call it’cause and effect’.

I was there during the red river tragedy 6 years ago, but you also know that my figure is difficult to attract attention, so I survived. Thank you for reshuffling the lower city district, which gave me a chance to rise. . “

It was a long time ago, but now that Lorenzo can still smell the blood, his face is frozen, like ice.

Eve on the side was dumbfounded. She remembered the last time she heard Ironthorn. It was from Officer Price, and the more profound was the red river tragedy. At this moment, she finally remembered.

“The foreigner hired by Burlau, the corpse you put into the River Thames that day made Burlau what Burlau is today, and after that you disappeared mysteriously. Only a few survivors knew your name, but they were also in panic. , I always feel that you will appear in a corner and take away the lives that should have died.”

That’s a story from the past, Lorenzo never mentions it or responds as if he has forgotten.

“So what do you want to play? Saab.”

Lorenzo remained calm, as if he had no emotions, a mechanical life.

“How about coin toss?”

No one would have thought that Saab would come up with such a gameplay, with only fingers playing with the coin, he said immediately.

“You’re not very good at playing cards, right? It’s inevitably unfair for a veteran to play against a novice. You like pure luck, so let’s do this, and then…how about you?”

Speaking of the coin bounced towards Eve, the coin was spinning rapidly in front of the girl’s eyes and finally stopped slowly. The metal surface was mottled and shiny, and it looked very old. The carvings on it became blurred after years of touch. Axe and shield can be vaguely seen.
