The Mermaid King City has never been so lively before. After the undead incident, the mermaid tribe was in a period of economic losses. Martial law was imposed everywhere and the access of caravans became strict. After investigation, it was found that the undead were as silent as their arrival. The ban had to be lifted helplessly. After all, this was not a solution. The undead might be nothing, but the mermaid tribe would be dragged down.
This exchange event between colleges also gave the Mermaid King City a chance to buffer. Both its economy and influence have been improved, and the gathering of so many masters has also put pressure on the undead hiding in the dark. No matter how to say it, having so many masters is always courageous, but the influx of so many strangers also presents many potential dangers, which is a pressure on the city guards.
At the same time, the price of black crystals in the royal city soared by one time. The casualties in the last battle against the undead were not very large, but the consumption of black crystals was very huge. The advantage of magic lies in long-range attacks, and the huge attack power tries to avoid casualties, but the consumption is also greater than that of other professions. The durability of a warrior is not seen in a magician. Even if the magic power is high and the mental strength is well trained, it cannot withstand long-term consumption. After all, the perverted magicians at the top of the pyramid are still very rare.
Of course, these crises are not what ordinary residents need to worry about. They need to enjoy their lives and welcome this sea race. The beauties of the mermaid tribe also dress up beautifully, hoping to catch a warrior. It has been an unchanging truth since ancient times that beauties go with heroes, and there are not many good opportunities like this.
"My two sisters, I've noticed that girls these days seem to be more stylish than before, and they expose more than even my fellow banshees. It's really strange."
The little demon was idly accompanying Clara and Alena. The two princesses were not allowed to go out casually now, and even if they went out, it was for some charity activities. The poor little demon was also dragged to accompany them.
This was of course Clara's idea. In fact, Clara's idea was also Elena's. Even if Elena was pregnant, she didn't want to leave such an attractive little beauty next to Caesar when she was not around. If it was a beauty of another race, it would be fine. She believed in Caesar's willpower. If he could not resist his desire, Elena would have lost the God of Innocence long ago. Moreover, she herself knew that she could never resist Caesar's demands. As for the consequences... maybe she couldn't think about it, but when facing this little demon, she didn't have this confidence. It was not because the banshees were lustful. Elena was still very fair in doing things. Since she came into contact with the little demon, she also understood that the banshees would involuntarily make some actions to attract the opposite sex, and their bodies would also have this tendency. Maybe it was a joke from the sea god. This kind of charm is very lethal to the opposite sex, and many times it was not what they originally meant. Over time, the reputation of the banshees became what it is now. After all, most people only look at the results, not the reasons.
It makes sense, but leaving Xiao Yao alone with Caesar would only cause him more trouble. Elena would not have nothing better to do than test his patience. Only a stupid woman would do that.
Love needs to be tested naturally, but there is no need to test it all the time, as that will only backfire.
"Little Demon, there will be a lot of young talents coming to this event. How about we find a suitable one for you then?" Clara blinked and started to think of a solution. This little demon caused her too much trouble around Caesar. Although Alina was Caesar's favorite now, Alina was relatively gentle and reserved, and would not cause her as much trouble as the little demon.
"Suitable? Okay, as long as it's a little bit better than the master!"
Clara and Alina looked at each other, this little girl was much more slippery than they had imagined, she looked innocent on the surface, but she had one evil idea after another. Although she called Caesar "Master", she was just being polite to Alina and Clara, and her way of addressing them was very accurate. After all, she was the princess of the banshee tribe, and she was very confident, and no one could do anything to her.
"Xiao Yao, if you meet someone you like, go after him without worry. I will take care of Caesar, so don't worry. And I will remember what he promised you."
Alina said this, although there was a little bit of selfishness in her heart, but mostly out of concern.
Reading people's expressions is the specialty of the banshees. They are good at illusion and can easily distinguish people's expressions. She naturally knew Elena's intentions and put away her playful expression.
"Sister Alina, from the moment the master arrived at the Banshee tribe according to the prophecy, my fate was sealed. I have no choice but to obey. If the day comes when the master no longer needs me, I will disappear forever."
The little demon clasped her hands together and said very piously that the Banshees would not joke about prophecies, and the disappearance she mentioned was 100% death. It could be said that the Banshees' thinking was difficult for other races to understand.
Alina and Clara were speechless, they also knew Caesar's personality, he looked very strong but actually he was very soft-hearted, especially to girls who were nice to him, he would never have the heart to hurt them. Of course this kind of gentleness would also cause some troubles, but this was also what Alina and Clara liked, there were always two sides to things.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Are both sisters going to participate in this competition?"
"Of course I want to join in the fun. Hehe, my father even lent me his staff, it would be a waste not to have some fun. Nana, how about you?" Clara said with a smile. She was 100% determined to join in the fun. In fact, Clara was blessed by nature. She was the first person to qualify for the Sea King Festival and would sing at the Sea King Festival, which was a very important event. No one in the entire sea clan could compare with her in singing. Participating in the exchange meeting was purely for fun. Wouldn't it be too sad for her to watch from the audience?
"I also want to contribute to our fellow women."
As a sea dragon, both men and women are belligerent, so Elena's man will definitely not be a weak and incompetent person.
The three women were in the palace, and many of the news were not very clear. However, the Mermaid King City was turned upside down because of a big news. The Adventurer's Guild and all the casinos owned by the Shark Blood Witch offered odds for winning.
The odds offered by the Blood Witch's Casino were within everyone's expectations. The six great masters of the younger generation and those who possessed magical weapons were still favored. Of course, the odds offered now were very conservative, but the odds offered by the Adventurer's Guild surprised everyone.
The most promising person was not one of the six great masters, nor some well-known people, not even a member of the royal family!
Caesar Alexander was brought in front of the entire sea clan for the first time. If Caesar was only locally famous before, and even accompanied by some rumors and exaggerated legends, then as soon as the odds of the Adventurer's Guild were announced, almost everyone was asking who this Caesar was!
Participating in gambling is a favorite way of spending for adventurers. Excitement and danger are in their nature, so it is also very popular among the sea people. However, the Adventurer's Guild's actions have left the adventurers a little confused. How could the Adventurer's Guild, which has always been famous for its rigorous and accurate information, make such a big mistake?
Caesar's odds are 1:0.8, while Lilith, who ranks second, has odds of 1:5, which is definitely a huge contrast. The third is Dayou from the Jellyfish Sea Youyou trio, the fourth is Alina from the Sea Dragon clan, and the fifth is Roladman from the Shark clan. The ranking of the top five is definitely beyond many people's expectations. The reason given by the Adventurer's Guild is that it is based on the combination of personal strength and magic weapons, and someone as strong as Roye did not even make it into the top five. Of course, everyone will not doubt the strength of this new generation of the Sea Dragon clan, but it's a pity that the magic weapons of the Sea Dragon clan are not in his hands. The magic weapons can only be used by the king and those designated by the king. There is no way around it. Even if the strength is a little worse, with the help of the magic weapons, he will naturally be more optimistic. Of course, the data cannot represent the real victory or defeat. The unpredictable unknown is the charm of gambling.
As for why they offered the first place odds to a small figure, the Adventurer's Guild's answer was surprisingly simple - strength. Although everyone was not very satisfied, they also knew that the Adventurer's Guild would not joke about such things. Countless people were asking about this man named Caesar, and the more they dug, the more news they found. Some rumors were terrifying, such as the undead, magic dragons, human dragon knights, etc. Poseidon, when did such a terrifying figure appear in the sea clan.
The person involved was also a little depressed, so Caesar didn't dare to go out, as if many pairs of eyes were watching him. Being famous was not a pleasant feeling. Unfortunately, his brothers ignored him, and classmate Kao was even more gloating.
"Boss, it's finally your turn to experience the troubles of being a celebrity. Alas, this is just the beginning. As the competition progresses, I can guarantee that you will become extremely famous, and the girls chasing after you will line up from the East Sea to the West Sea... Don't forget to introduce a few good ones to me when the time comes!"
"Kaou, is Hong good?"
"Hehe, Didi, being famous is good. Simply put, if you are famous, you will have money to spend and food to eat. With your ability, you will definitely be good. Our little Didi is so cute, maybe he will seduce a lot of housewives who like to stew tender beef with old grass. Alas, what a pity. Boss, I was going to put all my private money on you, but who would have thought it would turn out like this. It's really depressing. The Adventurer's Guild is too cunning. I think they must have read your record in the Adventurer's Guild, otherwise why would they give you such a low odds? They also do things that abuse their power for personal gain!"
Kao smacked his lips repeatedly. Before the competition, the majority of people looked down on Caesar. Even if there were a few who paid attention to him, they would not think that he could win the championship. After all, there were too many experts and magical weapons. However, Kao and his friends knew that it would be useless even if they tied a few magical weapons. The strength of their boss was unfathomable, and he was much more humble than others. This cunning Adventurer's Guild made him earn less. After seeing the odds offered by the Adventurer's Guild, the Blood Witch's Casino also adjusted its odds. Although not as exaggerated as the Adventurer's Guild, it also made it into the top ten, which was also a very high ranking, and it was a loss.
"Kaoh, stop screaming. You'd better think about how to win. Look how focused Caesar is!"
The person who can say this must be Miss Yisa. She is now Caesar and the others' agent, and all the plans are arranged by her.
"...Isa, don't scold Kao. If I had money, I would have bet on myself."
"Oh, so you are so confident? Do you want me to lend it to you without interest?"
"Fuck, are you kidding me? This is discrimination. I don't accept it. I want to appeal!"
"Take it with you. I bet one million gold coins on you making it to the quarterfinals. If you lose, I'll chop you into pieces!"
Isa glared and immediately suppressed Caesar's voice. Her words scared Kao even more.
"Big sister, heroine, idol, please forgive me. I didn't even dare to set a goal for myself. There are so many experts this time. If I'm unlucky, I might not even make it to the top 32. Can you invest the money in... Zhebie? Yes, him? One million gold coins. I can't afford to pay it back if I sell mine!"
"Why are you talking nonsense? I bet five million on Zhebie. Mr. Zhebie, you won't let me down, will you?"
The only one who could threaten Zhebie so blatantly was Yisa. Even with Zhebie's calmness, his body couldn't help but tremble. The corners of his mouth trembled but he still didn't say a word. He knew very well that it would be useless to speak.
"I, Yisa, am a very kind person. Since we all have such a good relationship, naturally everyone will put in some pressure. I am doing this for your own good. I want to give you some motivation. Only with motivation can you make progress!"
"...Auntie, this is pressure, right?"
"Shut up, you are such a loser. Didi has two million on him, Batty has one million on him, and as for Caesar, I bet fifty million on him. Classmate Caesar, if you don't live up to your expectations, hmph!"
Everyone felt a little numb after being coaxed and threatened by Yisa. Before the battle even started, their momentum was suppressed by the insiders.
"Yisa, the boss's odds are so low, it's a waste to make so much money, why not lend it to me for investment."
Yisa smiled but said nothing, "You have to make money, big or small. Besides, there are more interesting things in the world than making money!"
Looking at Yisa's evil smile, everyone instinctively felt that someone was about to be in trouble.
At this time in Las Vegas, the Blood Witch's face was extremely ugly.
"...Madam, we have already investigated. The source of funds is the Carrot family, or more precisely, Isabelle's personal operation. A total of 130 million gold coins. If that Caesar really wins the championship, our losses will be huge."
"This little bitch is always against me. Sooner or later, I will make her suffer. However, given her cautiousness, how could she make such a big move this time? Caesar, tsk tsk, where did this little bitch come from? She is really messing things up. By the way, haven't you received the detailed information yet?"
"I'm sorry, ma'am. The information on other royal masters is quite complete, but this Caesar is a commoner of the Sheobei tribe, so it may be a bit troublesome to collect it."
The intelligence officer answered cautiously, and his wife's face did not look very good.
"Waste, a bunch of waste. The Adventurer's Guild actually took a fancy to him and was bold enough to rank him first. There must be some big inside story. These bastards wanted to suppress me by relying on the information advantage. It's impossible... Isn't the young lady there? Ask her to check it out for me. I don't believe my daughter is worse than that little hoof of the Carrot family!"
"Madam, the lady has an urgent letter in red!" A waiter rushed in quickly. This color meant an urgent letter, so there was no need to care about etiquette.
Although the Blood Witch was not very satisfied, she was still very clear about the situation. After seeing the letter, her expression changed rapidly, "Quick, immediately put that Caesar in first place, ... 1:0.5... No, 1:0.2, immediately, right away!"
There was not much content in Marilyn's letter. Under normal circumstances, none of them would be credible. He defeated Prometheus, humiliated Edmund, the owner of the Wushuang Ring, and injured the Giant Whale King Raphael. There was even more outrageous news. He tied with the human Jade Dragon Knight Stylaia. He was protected by a magic dragon, practiced both magic and martial arts, was the direct disciple of the Abyss Great Adventurer, and was surrounded by a group of mysterious weirdos of various tribes. Even Prince Kao of She'ou recognized him as their leader. He had an ambiguous relationship with Princess Elena and Princess Clara, two of the three beauties of the sea clan. There were even more outrageous rumors. It was said that Princess Elena was infected with the dragon plague, but this Caesar went single-handedly to the human Tolas Mountains, and under the siege of hundreds of frost dragons, he killed the Frost Dragon King, obtained the dragon crystal and saved Princess Elena.
To be honest, looking at any one of them alone, she was unwilling to believe it. How could someone who was not a royal family have such strength? Especially the latter one, it was too outrageous. Not to mention a young man, even if the six kings came together, they could not face hundreds of dragons. It was too outrageous. Could it be that the Adventurer's Guild pushed this unknown guy to the top because of these rumors?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, ... Is everything true? She herself found it ridiculous, but the truth was not so ridiculous. The Adventurer's Guild and the Carrot Family were not people who liked to joke.
The Adventurer's Guild is an information center. It may not be as accurate as theirs in some aspects, but for the adventurers recorded in the Adventurer's Guild, they have detailed information, and the accuracy of this information is real. Suddenly, she also had the urge to meet this young man.
