Open Your Quest Log Chapter 433

There will never be true balance on the scale of the 'human heart'. No matter what is placed on both ends of the scale, it will inevitably be biased towards one side.

When two countries, or two people, engage in some kind of competition, we naturally hope that the side that is close to us will win. And when both sides of the game are strangers to us, we will also subconsciously be partial, just because that person has a better nose, better clothes, or some actions suddenly make you feel inexplicably good. .

And both sides of the game are their own close people? The result is the same.

There are many similar scenes in the opera: two young people fall in love with the same girl, but the girl's heart is full of confusion and can't make a choice. At this time, gladiatorial combat has become a better way to solve problems.

Its ultimate purpose is not actually to let the winner win the heart, but to let the girl figure out that when the two young men face each other with swords and hurt each other, her heart will feel more pain when who is hurt.

At this time, Monroe, the owner of the tavern 'Soul Elegy', also encountered the same problem. Like the girl in the story, he doesn't know how to choose, or more precisely, how to place a bet.

The two gladiators in this gladiator fight at the moment are very fond of Monroe, one of them is the recently popular 'Unyielding' Barritt, and the other is the equally powerful 'Soul Sucker' Victor. The two men have their own characteristics, and their game Monroe is almost never lost, and the bets placed on them have basically been well-rewarded.

And when Barrett and Victor fight together, Monroe is in trouble. He hesitated for a long time, and finally only symbolically pressed a blood coin on each side. This kind of betting method is destined to have losses and no gains, but no one will care about the gain or loss of a few blood coins.

In the stands, the host of the arena 'Idu' first told a cold joke about the tauren and the half-goat, and then briefly introduced the two gladiators on the field, and then announced the start of the gladiatorial fight.

"Who are you pressing?" Next to Monroe's seat, a male chain demon asked him familiarly.

"...Barrett." Monroe casually said a gladiator's name. In his opinion, the strength of the two people is actually similar, and it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose.

"It's a pity, you will definitely lose badly this time!" The Chain Demon shook his head, "Trust me, human, Viktor the Soul Sucker will definitely win!" The devil said confidently, "If you really If you don't know how powerful and terrifying this gladiator is, then you will definitely bet on him like me!”

After the chain demon finished speaking, an activated chain on his body suddenly stood up, pointing at the gladiator whose body began to slowly emit black smoke on the left side of the arena.

That is the 'Soul Sucker' Viktu. When his body is completely surrounded by black smoke, his strength, agility, attack and defense will be greatly improved. Even if he is directly hit by a sword or magic, it is difficult to really hurt the smoke. he.

And the black smoke can be blasted out like a 'magic missile', causing a certain amount of damage while also causing the spirit of the hit person to fall into a short-term sluggishness and trance.

In the past, several gladiators had been hit by that peculiar 'black smoke missile' first, and before they had time to parry, they were slashed by Victu who seized the opportunity.

"It's okay, I only pressed a few blood coins, so I don't care about winning or losing." Monroe smiled.

"Just a few blood coins?" Chain Demon's tone revealed contempt, "Oh, I have crushed the souls of ten fallen people!"

This is a pretty big bet. "But another gladiator named 'Barrett' is also very good." Monroe reminded, "He has beaten Vampire Lambert before."

"Cut, it's not just luck!" Chain Demon turned his head to look at the gladiator on the right side of the field, his eyes revealing resentment, "I also watched that game, and Lambert finally suppressed that guy without fighting back. Power, if it weren't for the divine power that burst out from the tattered paladin armor, just to restrain the vampire-born Lambert, the guy you mentioned, would definitely have been stabbed to death by a sword at that time."

This guy should have been betting on vampires like most people at the beginning, and it is likely that he also made a heavy bet, which resulted in a terrible loss, so he held such a grudge against Barrett, Monroe judged.

"If you don't believe it, just look at it. This gladiatorial fight will definitely end soon." Chain Demon, who likes to make judgments, vowed.

With the conversation over, Monroe again turned his attention to the arena.

At the beginning of this gladiatorial fight, as the chain demon beside him said, Victu the Soul Sucker had a big upper hand. His arbitrary long-range black smoke attack made Barrett very embarrassed to resist. The latter had been successfully hit by black smoke three times at this time, and when one of them was hit, the distance between the two sides was very close, and Viktu could almost understand it directly.

At that time, the chain demon next to him had already stood up from his seat and was ready to start cheering. Monroe himself felt that the game was about to end, because this scene had happened many times, and Victor had never missed a shot.

But Barrett woke up faster than everyone thought, and much, much faster. He evaded the fatal attack at the last minute, and then slashed Victor's body with a backhanded sword.

"How is this possible, how can he wake up so quickly?" Chain Demon asked suspiciously.

Monroe didn't know either, so he could only helplessly open his hands to the Chain Demon, and then continued to watch the next development.

If Barrett's sword hits other gladiators, it is likely to cause extremely serious injuries and even directly determine the outcome of the game. But when it hit the 'Soul Sucker', it did not cause any substantial damage to it. Because the black smoke shrouded in the 'Soul Sucker' successfully resisted this attack like the previous game.

But after this sword, Monroe found that the black smoke on Victor's body dimmed a lot in an instant. Although in the previous gladiatorial fight, when Monroe was hit, the black smoke on his body would also be reduced, but the degree of reduction was by no means as obvious as this time.

The pure black smoke was reduced by about a third in just one blow. Our tavern owner thought he was dazzled at first, but when he turned to look at the chain demon next to him, he found that this one had a face before. The determined devil did not have that confident expression on his face at this time, but added a lot of tension.

"Hmph, this guy 'Unyielding' really has some means, but these are useless, useless! 'Soul Sucker' will definitely win the final victory!" Chain Demon muttered to himself, "After all, he is There are not many devils who can directly use the energy of the soul in the entire city of Dis who can really do this!"

Monroe was a little fortunate in his heart. He didn't know why, but he hoped that Barrett would win at this time, perhaps because he could see the wonderful scene of the Chain Demon's wailing in pain.

In the arena, the effect of Barrett's sword also seemed to have greatly exceeded the expectations of the 'Soul Sucker', which made his follow-up response seem extraordinarily flustered. Not only did Victor no longer dare to use his body to take Barrit's attack, he even dared not let the latter approach him directly.

He pulled away from a long distance and wanted to rely on the 'Smoke Missile' to win the gladiatorial battle, but Barrett the Unyielding was not something that could be defeated with this kind of remote-controlled attack with limited damage.

After that, Barrett was hit by black smoke three or four times, but other than the occasional pause in his body and a slight slump in spirit, he could not see any other discomfort. However, the black smoke on Victor's body was constantly being consumed, becoming more and more rare.

And our tavern owner also noticed that Barrett's pause time after being hit by a black smoke missile became shorter than before. After the latest hit, the 'Unyielding' body didn't stop for half a heartbeat, which shows that his body and spirit have begun to slowly adapt to the influence of the black smoke missiles~www.mtlnovel.com~Victu seems to He also knows that it is not the way to consume it like this. After hitting the opponent one after another, he quickly approached to try to make up the knife again, but he was overwhelmed by the sudden awakening of Barrett with a series of storm-like attacks. .

The 'Soul Suckers', whose black smoke is getting rarer, have greatly regressed in terms of speed and strength. When he was parrying a certain time, he was accidentally swayed by the Unyielding One and hit his body again.

This blow also didn't really hurt Victu, but the black smoke on his body was already dim, not even one-seventh of the previous one. .

He lost! Monroe sighed inwardly, and turned to look at the devil beside him. This chain demon is already more interesting than the follow-up development in the arena, and our tavern owner is looking forward to it.

But when the host 'Idu' announced the result of the gladiatorial fight, the chain demon didn't curse and wailed in pain as Monroe imagined.

The devil suddenly fell silent. After he lowered his head and thought for a while, he turned and stared at the tavern owner, "Two souls, as long as the price of two souls, I will serve you for fifty years, how? If it wasn't for me... , Hmph, at such a price you could only hire low-level acupuncture demons before."

Oh? This is a bit interesting. Monroe raised his eyebrows. It is not bad that there are many devil security guards in the tavern who do chores, and there is no need to pay extra wages. "Seventy years, or forget it."

"You..., make a deal!" Lian Mo said fiercely, "Quick, let's go to sign the employment contract, I happened to bet by the way, and the next game will start soon."
