"Lord Boyle, tomorrow's gladiatorial announcement has been officially released."
Ackerman's respectful look made Todd unable to adapt. The latter gently wiped the shield, lowered his head and asked casually: "How is the process arranged?"
"There is nothing new in the first few games. They are all the same appetizers as usual. Next, several Red Branch members will need to participate in individual confrontations and double battles. As for the finale, the announcement said..."
Finding that the other party suddenly stopped talking, Todd raised his head and looked at Ackerman: "What did you say?"
"This will be a shocking battle that has never been seen in the Red Circle. Many top gladiators will fight on the same stage." Ackerman said this in a puzzled tone, then shook his head and said: "I always
I think the last fight was a conspiracy."
Casper touched his stubble-covered chin and muttered: "Literally speaking, in this final battle, all the top-notch gladiators in the red circle will be dispatched. There should be the mountain-splitting giant Cotton, the cunning fox.
Bethan, Lady Pain Deirdre...and of course, you, Lord Boyle."
Ackerman said in surprise: "We're not going to let these three people besiege Mr. Boyle, right?!"
Casper thought for a moment and denied this possibility: "The previous ten-on-one gladiatorial battle had an extremely bad impact on the entire Kingdom of Ulster. No matter how arrogant the king is, it is impossible for him to do something like this again.
act of strangulation.”
Ackerman thought for a while and came up with a guess that he couldn't believe: "So, the final battle should be a fair fight?"
Casper hit his knee with his fist: "At least it seems like it should be a fair game."
When Ackerman heard this, he whispered to Todd: "Lord Boyle, please be careful of the mountain-cracking giant Cotton and the cunning fox Beson. According to the reviews of other gladiators, these two people have extremely high hopes for you.
Great hostility.”
Todd was a little curious: "What did I do to make them hate me like this?"
Ackerman lowered his voice: "Think about it. Since the establishment of the Red Branch Gladiator Association, you have used combat performances and artificial blood as rewards to attract most of the fighters in the arena. There are many people here who originally belonged to other people.
Member of the faction. You
Poaching them here will naturally not win the goodwill of other faction leaders. I heard that the mountain-splitting giant Cotton and the cunning fox Beson have privately attracted a group of die-hards who are hostile to combat performances and advocate tradition.
Planning to do harm to you..."
Looking at Todd's calm expression, Ackerman suddenly remembered something and patted his forehead with relief: "Look what I'm worried about! You are a god in this world, so naturally you won't worry.
…”
When Casper heard this, he coughed heavily.
Ackerman closed his mouth and lowered his head in confusion.
Todd looked at the pair of living treasures in amusement and asked in a relaxed tone: "If, I mean if, you were given a chance to obtain the ability of a god, how would you choose?"
Casper thought for a while and then said: "I hope to gain infinite power so that I can be invincible on the battlefield."
Todd nodded and turned his attention to Ackerman, who looked troubled: "What about you?"
"Can I only choose one?"
"That's right."
"Then I want to gain the ability to become invisible."
Todd was a little surprised after hearing Ackerman's answer. He originally guessed that what this guy wanted was the ability to turn stone into gold and stay young forever.
"The ability to be invisible is indeed very convenient. You can transform into a master assassin and sneak into any place." Todd nodded and confirmed this idea.
Ackerman waved his hands repeatedly, denying Todd's guess: "No, no, no, Mr. Boyle, you misunderstood! I want the ability to be invisible, not to become an assassin."
"What do you want?"
"When I was young, before I inherited my father's position as village chief, I had a lot of time to waste every day. At that time, my favorite thing to do was to go to the mountain spring near the village and hide in the grass.
Waiting for prey to come to you.”
Listening to Ackerman's words, Todd said doubtfully: "So, the ability to be invisible is for hunting?"
"The prey he is referring to is the woman who comes to take a bath!" Casper rolled his eyes and revealed the secret.
Todd opened his eyes wide and took a breath.
Ackerman completely ignored the expressions of the two people in front of him and said with an intoxicated look: "That time was really wonderful. Every day I could see all kinds of women with their graceful bodies..."
Todd closed his eyes, his face full of distress.
Ackerman seemed to have no intention of shutting up, and the next words made Todd tremble: "I heard from Xingshang that in the far south, there is a seaport kingdom called Muxi. The people there followed the ancient Taylor period. Recently,
An amazing public bathhouse was built. If I could become invisible, I could stay in the women's bathhouse for a year without coming out... By the way! Do you prefer breasts or buttocks? Personally, I prefer buttocks. The perfect hip proportions should be like
yes……"
"Casper, shut this guy up!"
"Okay!"
That night, Todd met with the red branch liaison and the tribal liaison in the soul space respectively, and once again arranged the escape operation for tomorrow. After that, he summoned Rachel into the research institute.
Todd looked at Rachel, who was feasting on the sushi platter in front of him, frowned and asked: "Fiocha and his father Fergus are both under house arrest, right?"
"Yes, that's what happened yesterday. In the name of protection, the king trapped the father and son at home, and sent someone to temporarily take over the arena." Rachel stuffed a piece of salmon roe sushi into her mouth, and Rachel's face
A happy smile overflowed on his face: "This tastes, this tastes great! You can eat all kinds of delicious food every day. The world you live in is simply a food paradise!"
The look of Rachel being so moved by the delicious food made Todd laugh: "What does this mean? There are eight major cuisines in my hometown, twenty-four cooking methods, and more than 7,200 recipes. Stir-fried and roasted
Frying, boiling, steaming, roasting and mixing, every method and every taste can make you forget everything else."
"Really? Even if it's just once, I really want to see that world!"
Rachel's heartfelt words made the smile slowly disappear from Todd's face, and the latter showed a desolate look, and an emotion called loneliness also lingered in his eyes.
Rachel was stunned for a moment, and then gently grabbed Todd's hand with a look of concern on her face.
"I believe there will be a day when I will take you to another world and eat every delicacy in the streets. There will be no more darkness and no more confusion..." Todd smiled at Rachel.
, gently patted the back of her hand with his other hand.
