Arad's Sword

Chapter 497
But when Midi devoted himself to practicing and Luo Tesi used the requiem potion to recover quickly, the Snake Ridge Valley where the teleportation rift of Crystal Dragon Castle is located has already turned upside down.

As for the reason for the trouble, it is very simple, because the results of the Crystal Dragon Castle trial greatly exceeded the expectations of the major families.

The selection of Menzoberranzan fighters, plus the number of recommended places, totals 50 people. However, it is impossible for the entire Menzoberranzan city to send out to participate in the Black Dragon Conference.

There are only seven real fighters who are qualified to participate in the Black Dragon Conference.

Therefore, every time after fifty fighters are selected from the city, the Menzoberranzan city council will conduct further screening by means of trials to ensure that the final candidates are not only able to fight in the arena, but also Able to adapt to the trials in the Dark Dragon City.

It can be said that the form of "selection" plus "small world trial" is a simulation of the "Black Dragon Conference" and the subsequent "Dark Dragon City".

This time, the city council spent even more money and opened the Crystal Dragon Castle for the fighters to try.

Of course, since it took a lot of effort, it is natural to hope to get more returns.The four major families representing the city council all hope that their fighters can stand out. Even if they are eliminated, they must at least bring enough benefits from the Crystal Dragon Castle, preferably, even the legendary Black Dragon Stele.

Originally, this kind of screening and ranking was determined by the city council. However, the Crystal Dragon Castle that was opened this time was different from the past, requiring something like the "Black Dragon Residual Token" to enter.

So naturally, fighters who can grow the Black Dragon Remnant Token bigger and stay longer in the Crystal Dragon Castle will naturally have higher rankings.

This has become the default rule in Menzoberranzan.

Generally speaking, those who can stay longer in Crystal Dragon Castle must be the children of big families.

First of all, these big families have a large number of children, which can form a combat-capable team, and there is no need to worry about the distribution of interests between them.It is much stronger than those solitary lone rangers in small families, or the team formed temporarily with mutual suspicion.

Secondly, the children of the big family have a deep background and a high level. Even if they are not good at adventure, they can still obtain more black crystal plants by virtue of level suppression.

The last point is also the most important point. The core children of several big families have special means. After entering the Dragon Temple, they can gain additional advantages.

Therefore, most people believed that this trial of Crystal Dragon Castle lasted until the end, and those who could stay must be the fighters of the four big families of the city council.

However, just a week after the Crystal Dragon Castle trial, this prediction was directly broken.

Daheni, the chief core disciple of the third-ranked Flame Snake, was directly beaten out, and all the protective accessories on his body were exhausted, and he fell into a near-death state, unconscious.

Then, within two days, several other fighters of the Flaming Snake were also driven out by Crystal Dragon Castle due to the exhaustion of the black dragon's remnant order.

Knowing this, the members of the Flaming Snake family knew that it was that human, Midi Asrex, who wiped out their entire family team by one person!

This incident immediately caused an uproar in the Snake's Back Valley.

Some people don't believe it, some people think it's an exaggeration, and even the Death Scorpion family can't explain why. As for the Flaming Snake, they naturally hate Midi to the bottom of their bones.

However, Midi is the core child of the Death Scorpion family after all, so no matter how angry the Flaming Snake was, he would not dare to act excessively on the surface.

Fortunately, at least Rui Sen, who was not favored at the beginning, is still staying in the Crystal Dragon Castle at the moment, which makes the Flame Serpent family somewhat concerned.

However, according to other fighters, Ruisen has already taken refuge in Midi, so while the Flame Serpent family is lucky, there is also a trace of fear.

In the next two weeks, many fighters were kicked out one after another. Soon, counting the number of people, only members of the other three major families of the city council were left.

In addition, there are two little-known fighters from small families—that is, Mason and Zaknafein—who actually stayed in Crystal Dragon Castle, which is somewhat unexpected.

But in general, except for the episode of the flame snake, everything is still expected.

And according to past experience, the trial of Crystal Dragon Castle lasted for three weeks, which is already a remarkable thing.

In the eyes of the major families, it must be that the 67th-level "fighting king" Thor played an extraordinary role, which was able to drag the trial time to a full three weeks.

The Death Scorpion family is naturally proud of it.

As for the red-blooded bat and the two-headed wolf family, although they know that their own fighters are unlikely to be able to compete with Thor, since they can take this opportunity to stay in Longbao, they will definitely get quite a lot of benefits, so , naturally full of expectations.

But at the end of the third week, when Thor and others were sent out by the Dragon Temple, the high-level officials of these big families discovered that they had guessed wrong again.

People, indeed all came out.

However, in the team of the Red Blood Bat Family, only Alex was left, and the rest were all wiped out.

The two-headed wolf clan was wiped out without a single person left.

The team of the Death Scorpion family under the command of "King of Fighting" Thor was intact.

But obviously, the mood of this "King of Fighting" is definitely not in a good mood.

As for the reasons, they all have a lot to do with Midi Asrex.

"Because of the backward relationship in exploration, our Red Blood Clan and the Two-headed War Wolf became partners. Unfortunately, in the end, we fell into Midi's trap and fell into the group of monsters. After a hard fight, we managed to escape. , but was ambushed by Meddy, and it was completely wiped out." Alex said without changing his expression, adding fuel, "Because Mr. Simon had a grudge against Meddy, he was tortured inhumanely and then was killed." It was hard for me to kill him, so I escaped from his sword."

Although Midi did kill the red blood bat and the two-headed war wolf, after entering the Crystal Dragon Castle, this kind of hostility between fighters is completely allowed, so other families cannot use this as an excuse to trouble Midi of.

At least not on the surface.

And here Alex deliberately made up such a frenzied story and distorted the facts, just to at least give these two big families some excuses.

Even if it was suppressed by the Death Scorpion in the end, at least, the two families would definitely hold grudges against Midi, and might carry out an assassination or something.

This is what Alex wants to see.

And just as he expected, as soon as this story was told, the patriarchs and high-ranking members of the Crimson Bat and Two-headed Wolf Clan immediately turned pale, and looked at the Death Scorpion Clan with undisguised anger. meaning.

Even if the Death Scorpion is the first family, it can't be so arrogant, right?
"Midi really introduced the fighters of those two families into the monster group, and then ambushed them?" The senior management of the Death Scorpion family was full of doubts.

After all, three weeks ago, Midi was just a ghost swordsman who had just reached level 63. As soon as he entered the Crystal Dragon Castle, he first killed Daheni, and then even killed the red blood bat and the two-headed wolf. too likely.

However, when the senior family members asked this question, Thor snorted coldly, and just said lightly: "This person disregards the interests of the family, and only for his own selfish desires, even my words are useless, you have to ask, Why don't you ask him yourself!"

Even the chief core disciple of the Death Scorpion family said so, and immediately, Midi's evaluation dropped to the lowest among all of them.

Immediately, someone began to look for Midi, but after waiting for a whole day, Midi still hadn't come out.

"This human being is still staying in the Crystal Dragon Castle?" Even the higher-ups of the Death Scorpion were secretly surprised at this moment.

The time spent in Crystal Dragon Castle was more than three weeks, which is an unprecedented record.

A human being directly defeated three big families, even the family's leading genius was deflated in front of him, and directly broke the time of staying in the Crystal Dragon Castle.

What kind of secret and what kind of hole card does this person have to achieve this level?

"In any case, after Midi comes out, ask first before talking." The law enforcement elder said, with a trace of undisguised anger flashing in his eyes.

He didn't like Midi at all. At this moment, according to Thor, if Midi hadn't ignored the interests of the family and acted without authorization for his own self-interest, perhaps Thor could stay in it for a longer time.For this sake, the law enforcement elder felt that Midi should be punished no matter what.

"After the question is over, do you want to tie up Midi and give it to the three families as an apology?" Verna said sarcastically.

"Hmph, pay attention to your words, Verna, I never said that, even if Midi is to be punished, it is an internal matter of our Death Scorpion." The law enforcement elder knew that of course he couldn't let go at this time.

The matter of Midi himself is a trivial matter, but if the death scorpion sent the clansmen to outsiders to punish, what would the face of the first family be?
This is a matter of principle, so naturally he can't let go.

Unexpectedly, Thor, the "King of Fighting" who seldom spoke, actually intervened this time: "If Midi refuses to accept the family's judgment, then I will do it myself. Hmph, it's just a level 64 ghost." The swordsman, relying on a little trump card, is so arrogant, regardless of the overall situation, punishment is inevitable!"

Although Thor is not yet a high-ranking member of the family, his status is extraordinary. Speaking of this, even the high priest of the black dragon Verna, who has always been defiant, would not be able to directly conflict with him at this moment.

As for the Patriarch of the Death Scorpion, he didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, but just listened quietly.

All of a sudden, whether it was the other three major families or the Death Scorpion, all the attention was actually focused on Midi alone.

When the outside world is turbulent and undercurrents are surging, Midi is still continuing to practice.
