  Chapter 77 ceremony (fourth update)

"Six bottles of Fording are here, I invite !"

"Here is a plate of lobster lala fat, if you want an extra large portion, I will pay for the contribution!"

"I will serve a glass of ale for the whole audience. 'Black Beast' Touk pays the bill!"

At noon, the registration point has been withdrawn and the volunteer recruitment has ended.

The restaurant was bustling with activity. The selected condemned prisoners quickly consumed their contribution points to eat shouted. These bad guys who had done all their bad deeds even took the initiative to invite guests to share their happiness. After all, when a volunteer is either released from prison alive or dead, the contribution is useless no matter what, of course, it must be spent quickly.

The worst thing in life is when someone dies and the money hasn't been spent.

If there is anything worse, it is that the money is not spent, but people want to die.

Lionel Wade is the latter.

He looked at the sumptuous food in front of him. He was very hungry, but he couldn't get any appetite.

The waiter at the restaurant brought 'Black Beast' Tooke's cold ale. Lionel hadn't touched a bit of alcohol for many days, and he drank alcohol as water almost every day before he was imprisoned. He should have been hungry and thirsty, but after taking a sip of ale, he only felt that it was a bit bitter water.

It's boring.

Nothing is interesting.

It's boring to go to jail, boring to live, boring to self-deprecating. Now, the only thing that can make Lionel's pituitary gland send a strong signal, the only thing that can make him feel that he is still alive is-

“wu wu!”

Lionel suddenly felt He slammed his head into the food, shoved food into his mouth frantically with his hands, chewed hard with his mouth, and gnawed the tendons in the meat slices back and forth with his teeth, as if only in this way could he temporarily forget that disgusting and insatiable instinctive desire!

"You have a good appetite, but you look quite thin, and you usually have a fitness habit?"

Lionel lifts the head and finds out that it is two prison celebrities-'Beautiful Beasts' Needless to say, Igor is good at cleaning up newcomers through contract spells, and is also an intelligence dealer in prison.

Ronald told him on the first day to be careful with anything Igor says, you never know when you've signed an unequal treaty with Igor.

However, he has been in prison for a short time, and he has not seen the cruel side of Igor, so he is not very wary of Igor. And another celebrity, 'Demon' Ash, impressed him even more - defeating Igor first, then Varkas, and surviving a near-death situation in the Blood Moon Trial.

In Lionel's eyes, Ash was a loser almost every time, but he somehow won.

Never fight to knock down Igor with one punch, never pierce Varkas throat with a sword to a sword, Varkas in Blood Moon Trial obviously wants to take him to see Supreme Lord Blood Moon, but it is Without cutting off his head...

If it were outside, Lionel would definitely feel like he was witnessing the birth of a new Legendary.

Unfortunately, this is Broken Lake Prison.

No matter how many miracles there are, they are just bubbles in the broken lake. They will burst when they float to the surface, and they will never exist in the sun.

"No."

"Then why are you so skinny?" Ash picked up a sandwich and took a bite, "Is it because the flesh on your body ran away? "

Lionel raised his eyebrows with no expression on his face: "Seriously, if you want to trouble Ronald, just go to him directly. I'm not interested in getting involved in your grievances."

"No, we're here for you." Ash said, "Are you still frustrated that you didn't become a volunteer? Don't worry, there are other ways to get out of jail besides volunteering."

Lionel was shocked: "What method!?"

"Jailbreak!" Ash said mysteriously: "We have a big plan now, the success rate of jailbreak is very high, It's just a little bit of staff, are you interested?"

Lionel slightly startled, sighed: "Seriously, don't you come and mess with me, okay? I beg you, if not, I ask You guys have a meal, you are a contributor, can you be magnanimous and let me go?"

Ash looked at Igor helplessly, Igor sighed: "If the cult leaders outside are all eloquent like you, no wonder The Four Pillar Gods will disappear for so long."

Igor looked towards Lionel: "You know you can't stay here, right? You have to get out of Broken Lake, you have to escape Ronald, even if you become The volunteers of nine deaths and still alive will not hesitate, because if you continue to stay by Ronald's side, the ending will be worse than death, worse than death."

Lionel's eyes flashed: "I don't understand you. What do you mean, all I know is that without Ronald, I'm going to be a regular at the Blood Moon Trial until I'm hammered into meat by the executioners."

"It's really tempting." Igor said with a smile: "As long as you promise to maintain a close relationship with him, he is willing to lose to you in the deathmatch, allowing you to get a lot of contribution points, so as to temporarily escape the Blood Moon Trial. Especially after you lose five deathmatches in a row, Ronald It becomes your only life-saving straw."

Like most of the death row inmates, Lionel's means of making money are basically written in the criminal law, and he can hardly contribute any social value after coming to prison, so his The line of sight naturally turned to the Deathmatch Club - through looting Using other people's resources to survive, this has been Lionel's way of living for more than 20 years.

It is a pity that there are too many robbers in prisons and too few producers.

Lionel came to the deathmatch club and chose an old man who looked weak to fight to the death, but he was beaten all over and his bones were shattered - 'Diamond' Tiger successfully got out of the hands of the newcomer Grab 1 Contribution Point.

The results of the next four death fights were similar. Lionel had done his best to gather intelligence as much as possible, but almost everyone who was willing to fight him to the death could crush him.

After losing 15 contribution points, Lionel is at the bottom of the prison food chain. He no longer dared to accept death battles, his confidence was broken in the first five death battles, and he felt that everyone here was better than him.

If he can't find a way to earn Contribution Points, he will appear in every subsequent Blood Moon Trial, until one day the citizens are so kind (tired) that Supreme Lord Blood Moon takes this redemption-hungry woodpecker golden-billed killer.

That's when Ronald appeared.

He is willing to deliberately lose to Lionel in the deathmatch so that Lionel can get contribution points. And this is a long-term agreement, Ronald has a way to earn contribution, as long as he wants, both he and Lionel can maintain a high contribution, and it is not a problem to spend a few years in prison comfortably.

He had only two requests, the first of which was for Lionel to maintain an intimate relationship with him. Although Lionel is not very willing, but also not very disgusted, after all, he has seen a lot outside, so in order to survive, it is acceptable to sacrifice a little color.

And his second request...

"Ronald needs you as an 'ingredient', right?" Igor said: "He asked for a deathmatch with you, and you wanted to get contribution points. Naturally, it has to be accepted. In the death fight, all restrictions are lifted, and he can act wilfully to you... When you are about to die, Ronald will cut himself off and let you win... Your transaction is probably this process, right Right?"

Lionel was silent for a moment, then slightly nodded: "Anyway, as long as I don't die, my body can recover. Although it will reduce my lifespan in the long run, if there is no contribution, I won't even be able to get the next Blood Moon. Trial doesn't even know if I can survive."

Igor said with a smile: "Yes, if the 'transaction content' is just that, it's really a good deal, and even I will be moved. ."

"What do you mean?"

"Actually, you should know better than me, after all, I only vaguely guessed it by collecting information on Ronald's former 'friends' His real purpose, and you are a sacrifice in ceremony, you should feel the essence of this transaction? Otherwise you would not be in a hurry to become a volunteer and want to escape Ronald."

Lionel's pupils dilated: "ceremony? What ceremony?"

The corners of Igor's mouth are slightly upturned. Telling the truth to the victim like this is one of his favorite crime shows. If possible, he will He will tell every idiot who has been deceived by him about his deception plan - the happiest tragedy in this world is to make idiots realize their stupidity.

"Don't you think that Ronald made such a request just because of gluttony? And you should feel that Ronald doesn't treat you as an item, a tool or a stranger, he is really in love. You...wholeheartedly, love you unreservedly."

Lionel's expression grew paler, his hands trembling slightly as he grasped the steak.

As ridiculous as it sounds, Ronald profiting from somebody's misfortune threatened Lionel to agree to his demands, and gnawed him like a rib every time he fought to the death, no matter what he thought, Ronald just treated him as someone who wanted anything slave .

If that's the case, Lionel feels relieved because it's a relationship he understands.

However, he felt that Ronald was sincere!

Lionel isn't a lonely killer, he's been in a relationship, and he knows what love feels like.

That's why he was so terrified - Ronald's every look, every movement, revealed the truth!   Even when Ronald was eating, there was no killing intent in his eyes!   Loving and eating, Ronald can achieve a perfect unity, as if the two can exist at the same time!

Lionel has never dared to think deeply, but now that Igor has pointed it out, he is forced to face this cruel fact!    He swallowed and asked with difficulty: "This, what ceremony is this?"

"Honestly, I don't know, I only know the end of the ceremony sacrifice." Igor said: "Ronald's former 'friends', without exception, died in their dormitories."

Lionel's face turned pale, "How is this possible!? How could they die in the dormitory?"

Ash also reacted-except in the deathmatch arena area, otherwise the chip prohibits the death row prisoner from self-harm and suicide!    If the death row inmates go on hunger strike, when the body is hungry to a certain extent, the prison will notify the guards to help the inmates eat! Therefore, the death row inmate in the dormitory is impossible to die, unless it is old age!

But Ronald is clearly not a twilight hobby lover.

“It is said that there is nothing wrong with the body, it looks normal, but all the organs and tissues have stopped functioning.” Igor used a fork to pick up the strawberries on the strawberry cake, “It’s like… the soul suddenly disappeared, So the body collapsed right after."

Lionel's face was paper white, his lips trembling.

Igor made the final cut.

"You shouldn't be interested in anything right now, but you're only looking forward to Ronald's ceremony? Even if your contribution is enough, you'll still accept Ronald's deathmatch invitation...

Do you know why this is?"

"Why?"

"Because it is only in ceremony that your soul can be temporarily whole - your incomplete soul , can't wait to escape from your body."
