Chapter 114 Gambling
"Betting? OK." Panis replied without hesitation, "I'm fine, but are you really a mage? I don't remember seeing any mage who likes to use gambling to solve problems."
"Then you'll see one now." Victor said leisurely: "Before being noticed by the teacher and becoming a mage apprentice, I was a professional gambler. My favorite thing was to use gambling to solve problems. Even learning magic from the teacher was determined by gambling. Gambling is the best way to make decisions. It can be said that all the major decisions I made in my life are inseparable from gambling, and of course this time will not be an exception."
"How do you want to bet?" Panis did not comment on Victor's choice, but asked, "Also, what is the bet?"
"As the way, it should be considered fair." Although Victor spoke slowly, he did not hesitate or pause. It seemed that he had already thought about the content: "The battles in the inherent spiritual realm are often very fierce and full of destructive power, but I really want to study what direction the battle will develop when there are legends as collaborators. Now, there are two people on our side, one demigod and one legendary level, so please choose two people, and hold a head-on battle in the field of both sides, relying on the results of the showdown to make the final judgment. What do you think about this method? Can you accept it?"
"Where is the bet?" Panis still had no intention of commenting and continued to ask: "I think there must be other bets bets besides the lives of the participants. A professional gambler is not so naive that he makes an averaging bet, and he also expects that the other party can accept it. So just say it, what do you want to use to bets?"
"First of all, the first bet must be each other's lives." Victor pointed slowly at Ferek and himself, and pointed to the six members of the adventure team and Moore in turn, and said in a long voice: "Two choices. First, except for the two who participated in the battle, the rest of the people will leave immediately, and then the bet is the life and death of the four of us. If we win, the remaining five of you will not be affected. If we lose, all of you can naturally survive. The second choice is that you all stay here. There is no difference in the result of our loss. If we win, the second battle will naturally be held. However, without the assistance of the demigod, the legend wants to fight with the demigod, and I don't need to say what the result is."
"Continue." Panis waved his hand and said, "There is naturally a second one, and as the first bet, the two choices obviously have nothing to do with fairness."
"Of course, the most important thing in gambling is fairness of bets." Victor nodded slowly and said, "If you choose the first method and everyone else leaves and we win the final result, you will naturally notify other forces to intervene, and in order not to be intervened, the measures we take will definitely be to complete the plan as quickly as possible. Even if the plan is not finally ready, and if you choose the second method and others stay here, what will happen after we win may have nothing to do with you."
"What if you fail?" Panis said: "What are the benefits for us, who are the winners?"
"Have you forgotten what I said a few minutes ago, Mr. Kyle." Victor was unconscious and stared at Pannis' face and said slowly: "If we fail, we will leave you the design drawings of the magic array sequence of the Flame City. We will also mark several other cities with magic arrays. Through the drawings, you can completely solve all hidden dangers and not cause the death of any civilians. Of course, after this, it is not certain whether those believers who are hiding in the dark will re-produce this plan, but at least this incident can be solved perfectly, and this is the benefit you get."
"It doesn't sound so fair." Panis said with a smile: "Besides, do you really think we will come to the city you control to cause trouble for you without any preparation?"
"Relatively speaking, it is very fair, isn't it? There is absolutely fair in the world." Victor said: "And I do think so. This is the teacher's territory. Without the teacher's consent, no matter how many support you find, it is impossible to enter here. From your previous words, you can guess that the teacher cannot agree. Besides, don't underestimate the master's control over his territory. Whether there are strange strong men approaching the territory. As the controller of the territory, we know better than anyone else, so you can't scare me. Of course, it's not ruled out that you have other preparations, but what does that matter? If you have the courage, you can try other methods, but what will happen in the end? I can't guarantee that you can solve all problems without drawings, such as completely destroying this temple, maybe you can destroy our plan. How about it? Do you want to try it?"
Panis did not speak anymore, and stepped back a few steps behind Catherine. The six members of the adventure group exchanged a few glances with each other, as if they had made some decisions. In the end, everyone's eyes were focused on Catherine. Indeed, as the leader of the adventure group, the Knight Girl had to make the final decision for the team, and others were not qualified to make a decision on her.
Catherine took a deep breath and raised her voice and said, "We accept the bet, and we will be duel with Pannis as representatives."
"Sister, I'll do it." Vivian shook his head and leaned into Catherine's ear and whispered: "Leave the demigod's affairs to be solved by the demigod, and the mage's affairs are naturally left to the mage. I know that you made this decision because of your high defense. However, facing the demigod's offensive, no matter how high the defense is, it is meaningless. You can survive by using some other means. I have more experience in fighting against the mage. Don't worry, we have all grown up and will never disappoint you."
Catherine bit her lips and thought about it for a while, nodded with difficulty. The Knight Girl was actually very clear that Vivian was right. She just didn't want the girls to fall into danger before, so she had to fight on her own. But as Vivian said, they have grown up and can face any danger together. Therefore, believing in her teammates and her sisters is what she should do most now.
"Since you have decided, there is no need to waste time." Victor's hunched waist suddenly straightened, his momentum rising wildly, and invisible pressure surged out of his body: "Let the bet start."
