Chapter 47: 47 Arrogant Pure-blooded Human
The outside world was in turmoil, and the city was about to be engulfed by the terrifying Calamity Force Cloud Sea. Unfortunately, the Calamity Devourer King, Xia Feng, was unaware of these events.
He was currently sitting at the bar, bored and waiting, enjoying the scent of the wine. The times were peaceful.
Since there was only one referee (the bartender), duels had to proceed in order. There were six people ahead of Xia Feng, meaning three rounds of duels.
It was outrageous; each pair of opponents dragged their feet, taking nearly an hour for each duel. Xia Feng was so bored he yawned. It wasn’t until two hours later, when all three rounds ended in a draw, that he suddenly woke up.
“Respected guest, due to the overwhelming popularity of my establishment, Mino apologizes if this has caused you any inconvenience,” the bartender said apologetically, bowing gracefully.
Popular? Xia Feng glanced at the pale-faced, red-eyed individuals in the distance. They didn’t look welcoming at all.
“These people are members of the God’s Calamity Society who made a mistake. They didn’t come willingly,” the Jester, who had been watching from the sidelines, chuckled. “Mysterious Sir, are you sure you want to challenge according to the ‘100 choose 90’ format?”
“Naturally.”
Upon winning with the highest specifications, one could obtain one of the Five Element Water-Resolving Stones. Xia Feng needed the Water-Resolving Stone to perfect and solidify his spirit artifact’s abilities. Coupled with the additional gain of two grams of Boundless Stone, it was quite a profitable endeavor.
Hearing the confident demeanor of this Spade mysterious man, the Jester’s eyes narrowed, and he exchanged a glance with the gaunt man.
The gaunt man’s face was grim, and he said nervously, “Save me.”
The Jester pondered for a moment, then nodded. “Fine. As Yu Boss has provided us with so much merchandise, I’ll lend you a hand.”
“Everyone, the game for this round will begin in ten minutes. Please be prepared,” the bartender said with a smile.
The Jester patted the gaunt man’s shoulder and chuckled, “Good brother, wait for me. I’ll go find you a helper.”
With that, he vanished from his spot and instantly appeared in a conference room.
Dusty stickers were plastered along the walls of the conference room, bearing the slogans: “United Hearts for Patients, Dedicated Service, Patients at Ease, Families Unworried.”
It appeared to be a hospital conference room.
At this moment, a dozen or so figures were seated or standing in the room.
The man in the lead wore heart-shaped sunglasses and a red mink coat, leaning back in the main seat. He had two alluring women in his arms, and the three of them were kissing each other as if no one else were present. The others on the side were each occupied with their own tasks, creating a somewhat eerie scene.
“Ninth Master, our invasion speed is still too slow. The Imperial Court has already dispatched the ‘Eighth Disciple.’ What if he arrives before us—”
“Don’t worry, that scummy disciple won’t be able to reach District 51,” the mink-coated man said, releasing the woman’s lips. He twisted his somewhat stiff neck and grinned, “However, just in case, Blue Tiger, deploy ten more perfect Calamity-Infested souls to speed up the expansion of the rift.”
Blue Tiger, with his messy blue hair and a height of nearly two meters, had explosive muscles that stretched his white short-sleeved shirt into a tight undershirt. He frowned and said in a deep voice, “But Ninth Master, we only have nine Calamity-Infested Spirits left.”
“Nine, huh…”
Ninth Master released the woman’s lips again. After a moment of thought, he grabbed the woman by the neck and squeezed gently. *Splat—*
Like a popped balloon, blood and flesh splattered everywhere. The woman fell from her seat, her eyes wide open in death, lying in a pool of blood.
“There, that’s the tenth one,” Ninth Master said nonchalantly.
Blue Tiger’s expression changed slightly, his face turning grim. “Ninth Master, she was my woman. How could you do this…”
“Alright, alright,” Ninth Master licked the blood that had splattered on his lips and waved his hand with a sinister smile. “Once we conquer this city, what woman won’t you have? I’ve heard there are quite a few female stars in District 51~”
Upon hearing about the female stars, Blue Tiger immediately forgot about the woman on the floor, his eyes lighting up, and he grinned foolishly. “That’s right. I heard Mu Qingtong from the Spirit Song Competition seems to be from District 51, hehe~”
“Mu Qingtong?”
Someone suddenly emerged from a corner, interjecting with delight. “Yes, the person I’m talking about is Mu Qingtong’s fiancé. If you help me kill him, Mu Qingtong will be yours!”
“Yan Xujia, you still haven’t captured Cha Nai Xue for us, and you dare to order us around?” someone said displeasantly. Yan Xujia’s expression was dejected, with dark circles under his eyes. His face darkened slightly. “I told you, I have to go to the Southern Border tomorrow. If you don’t find a way to keep me in District 51, how can I help you?!”
Besides, that shameless bitch Cha Nai Xue had completely lost trust in him. He felt that his sincere feelings had been ruthlessly betrayed. He loved her so much and was willing to be her dog!
But what about this woman? In the end, she gave up on him when he needed her most. She didn’t even visit him once while he was hospitalized!
He was the son of a Marquis, for goodness sake!
“Cha Nai Xue, oh Cha Nai Xue, if you are unrighteous, don’t blame me for being unrighteous!” Yan Xujia sneered in his heart. Since I can’t have you, then you might as well die.
“Alright, stop arguing. Yan Xujia, we’ll consider your condition. Let’s discuss the important matters first,” someone said, turning to the Jester. “Jester, haven’t the invaders been dealt with yet?”
“Encountered a bit of trouble. I came back to find a helper.”
The Jester chuckled, looking around before finally turning to Yan Xujia. “As a new member, help us out, how about it?”
“What?” Yan Xujia snapped back to attention, confused.
“You’ll know when you come with me.”
“Jester, if the invaders are difficult to deal with, you can trap them in the Calamity Realm for now. The main business is more important,” Ninth Master said.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be quick.”
!
When the Jester appeared with Yan Xujia, Xia Feng was somewhat surprised. Judging by the date, Yan Xujia was supposed to be exiled to the Southern Border in three days. He had planned to intercept and kill Yan Xujia when he left District 51 and entered the ‘Eternal Flow Sea’ region. However, it seemed it might not be that troublesome now.
“How about this, Jester? I’ll give you eighty million in my personal capacity. Help me kill Xia Feng, how about it?” Yan Xujia had not given up.
Mr. Spade: “?”
“Of course, it would be best if you could capture him alive! I want him to taste the despair of being castrated!” A cold glint flashed in Yan Xujia’s eyes.
Mr. Spade: “??”
Fine, fine, fine. Plotting openly in front of me.
It seems I need to find a way to secretly eliminate this fellow. Otherwise, I’ll have to be on guard against his sneak attacks every day, which is really disgusting. Xia Feng pondered in his heart and sighed. “Gentlemen, can we stop idling and start the game? I’m really in a hurry.”
“Mr. Spade, you are a pure-blooded human, aren’t you?” the Jester ignored Yan Xujia’s transaction.
“Naturally.”
“Then I must say, Mr. Human, I admire your confident attitude.” The Jester tossed two black cards to the bartender, smiling teasingly. “Mino, give this mysterious human guest the double card. Give my friend the helper card.”
The two cards turned into black light and entered the bartender’s brow. The bartender looked at Xia Feng and said in a low voice, “The double card is in effect. Guest, you will need to drink an extra glass of wine each turn.”
“Helper card is in effect.” He then looked at the gaunt man. “Guest, you can find an additional guest as a teammate to participate in the battle.”
“???” Xia Feng was completely dumbfounded.
Good heavens, are you cheating? But I’m cheating even more~~
Seeing this, the gaunt man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Jester could not participate in the game due to certain reasons, the accumulated game item cards could help him overcome the difficulty, which was a blessing in disguise.
Two people drinking against one, and with Mr. Spade using the double card, he really didn’t believe this guy could win.
“Time is up, everyone.”
The bartender looked at Xia Feng, his polite smile fading. A sinister grin curved his lips, and a hint of playful mockery flashed in his eyes. “Guest, you are the challenger and have the first move. You can begin your performance.”
Challenging the highest specification human was the first time he had seen it, and probably the last. The taste of the soul of such an infinitely arrogant and foolish human should be quite good.
