Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins
Page 136
Each metal boot weighs nearly three kilograms. Under normal circumstances, it is somewhat cumbersome. It can only be controlled freely in the transformed state. Even if this ease is not perfect enough, it is enough to make it a real deadly weapon, rather than just a simple protective gear and auxiliary prop.
His eyes fell on the sword of the goddess at his waist. Without seeing any movement, the sword of the goddess trembled slightly, unsheathed by itself, completed two slashes in the air, and then slowly flew upwards. It was not until it was close to a distance of twenty-three meters that the stable sword of the goddess began to shake.
The control of metal has been significantly improved, the flexibility has been greatly increased, the maximum speed has been increased by nearly 70%, and the distance that can be finely controlled has more than doubled. The improvement of 'element' ability and the acquisition of the development ability of 'artifact' have made obvious improvements in this regard.
He raised his hand and grabbed the falling sword of the goddess.
The sacred words on the sword suddenly flashed with a faint light, and the "ability value" was activated. As its own level increased, the Goddess Sword, which had also completed sublimation, had obviously improved to a higher level in terms of its weight, sharpness, and magic conductivity, and was already not much different from a first-level weapon.
This is without further strengthening. In the future, it will be time to buy a sword for daily sparring.
Apart from anything else, it is inappropriate to continue using this sword when practicing with the elf lady.
It might be a bit of an exaggeration to say "cut off", but without the "immortality" attribute, it is very likely to be damaged in repeated collisions.
Swinging the sword through the air——
Su Mo practiced swordsmanship and felt the changes in himself after the upgrade more carefully.
The physical and mental disconnection was quite obvious. It was quite risky to directly participate in the war game in this state. However, only a real life-and-death battle could quickly complete this kind of physical and mental adjustment. With the "second life" as a trump card, such risks were completely within his tolerance.
After practicing swordsmanship for a while, Bell came out soon.
227
Chapter 227 List.
"Captain, do you need my help in getting used to it?"
Su Mo shook his head. "We need to go to the island before noon. It is more important to maintain our condition. When the war game starts, there will be plenty of opportunities to get used to each other... What level are you at?"
"'Agility' is just at 'C', 'Endurance' and 'Dexterity' are both 'D', and 'Strength' is still a little short."
"Great!"
Including today, there were only ten days left until the upgrade. Su Mo was full of admiration for this exaggerated growth rate. If it weren't for the fact that he had been constantly eating magic stones recently, allowing his left eye to complete five consecutive upgrades, he would have probably caught up by now.
"No, I'm not as good as you, Captain."
There was no actual sparring, but Bell still stretched his body.
The two did not stop exercising until Chloe arrived fully armed with a food box.
Inside the house, everyone had woken up, even Welf, who didn't need to rush to the island.
While eating breakfast, Su Mo looked at the contestant information sent by Mr. Fels last night.
He was not woken up the whole night, which meant that the unexpected situation he was worried about did not happen, but on the list, Su Mo still saw a Lv. 4. Adventurers of this level cannot be dealt with by money alone, but after looking at the detailed information, the slightest accident disappeared immediately.
The Bloody Rose——Minnie Angelique, a boss who was originally affiliated with the Ishtar clan and whose own business is also in Happy Street.
He is already over fifty years old and can be considered a retired person of the previous generation.
He was too close to the Ishtar family and was affected by them. Not only was his hard work destroyed by the immortal spirit's clone, but it was also found that his industry was related to the black market and dark factions. He was detained for several days. When the goddess of beauty was deported, he was fined and a large sum of money was confiscated before he was released.
This is obviously a case of working hard for many years but suddenly returning to the state of being like before liberation.
Fifty-three years old, for ordinary people, this is almost the age of old age, but for a Lv.4 adventurer, there is probably no sign of old age on his body.
After reading the information in detail, I can only say that the faith in those gods is indeed not created out of thin air.
One Lv.5, one Lv.4, five Lv.3, twenty-seven Lv.2, and as many as two hundred and thirty-three Lv.1. The apparent strength of this clan has already leapt to the top of Orario. There is still some gap from the original Ishtar clan, but it is definitely not much.
5VS267, a difference of nearly fifty-four times in numbers. When comparing the apparent strength of both sides, it is not an exaggeration to say that they were "crushed".
"What's the odds ratio outside?"
"Yesterday it was between 1:12 and 1:14."
Hestia answered out loud.
"It's really one-sided and it doesn't look good on us."
This betting ratio fully reflects the one-sided view of the outside world. As for why the handicap ratio is so clear... This battle costs a lot, so naturally we need to make back as much money as possible.
Of course, it is not appropriate for them to handle this matter themselves. It would be more appropriate to let outsiders do it, and it has already been done.
Being the banker and placing bets, all the cash that can be raised has been invested in this aspect.
If you win, you can make a lot of money, but what will happen if you lose?
If they failed in this war game, it would mean that the Hestia Familia would be left with nothing, and they would also be afraid of losing some money.
"Of course."
Although she acknowledged the gap, Hestia's voice did not sound discouraged at all.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, they have almost no advantages in terms of quality, quantity, or rules of the game, but at least in their own opinion, the real situation is far from being so bad.
Even though their winning rate is not as high as that of the opponent, the winning rate has always existed and has not been overwhelmed by the strong force.
"So, let's give them a good show today!"
Meeting the gaze of his own Lord God, Su Mo nodded. Dignity lies only on the sword edge and this is not just empty talk.
"After this battle, no one will underestimate the Hestia family anymore, and no one will dare to target us at will."
'Except for Freya's family.'
Handing the list to Miss Catman, Su Mo glanced at Bell and silently added a sentence in his heart.
Although the Loki family and the Ganesha family also have such strength, among the major families, the thing of directly kidnapping people will probably only happen to the Freya family.
"We will definitely win."
Among the people sitting here at this moment, the one who is most confident in this battle is not Su Mo, but the mermaid girl.
Bell couldn't help but nod.
For the Hestia family, this is a war that cannot be lost.
Chloe took a quick look at the list and made her own judgment. "The difference in numbers is a bit large, but we have wizards. The sheer difference in numbers does not pose a crushing threat. The real threat still comes from the first and second level adventurers."
"I will be responsible for taking care of the 'man killer'."
Chloe was not surprised to hear Su Mo say this.
With the blessing of the 'Treasure Hammer', she could indeed fight with that person, but she was only confident that she could hold the opponent back, not defeat him. Frontal combat has never been her strong point.
"Then leave this Lv.4 to me."
She believed that she would have no problem dealing with a Lv.4 who had been in retirement for more than a decade, even without the help of magic.
"I will protect Miss Haruhime."
Bell naturally knew what kind of responsibility he needed to bear. Protecting Miss Haruhime was his first priority, followed by other things.
"Mari will also protect Haruhime."
"Also pay more attention to the opponent's wizards and don't let them complete their spells successfully."
Many wizards are not good at close combat, but a Lv.5 wizard, no matter how poor his close combat ability is, will not be weaker than an ordinary Lv.3. Moreover, a mermaid can naturally reach Lv.2 in the flesh. Even if he does not use magic and charm, and just fights a Lv.4 in close combat, it is still uncertain who will win or lose in the end.
To be frank, she is actually the undisputed BOSS in this battle.
There are only one Lv.5 and one Lv.4 joining the battle. As long as these two are stopped, the number of people who can really threaten her life will be limited.
"Well, Mary will pay attention."
"Also be careful of the enemy's archers."
"I won't let them have a chance to shoot..."
Everyone chatted and supplemented each other, and the breakfast ended with Welf's blessing and a toast of glasses.
As the sun rose, the magic swords were distributed, the equipment was put on, and each person's prop bags were sorted out. Finally, the necessary combat supplies were loaded onto the carriage.
Spare weapons and equipment, spare elixirs and props, as well as the most basic food and water, four fully-filled wooden boxes, and two bulging large packages. The deadline for this war game is three days. Once a stalemate and a tug-of-war begins, they will come in handy.
Of course, stalemate and tug-of-war will do more harm than good to them, so it is better not to use these supplies if possible.
"We walked."
"Go ahead, we'll be watching you."
228
Chapter 228 The flame was ignited.
The sun is high in the sky and there is no cloud in the sky.
Under the azure sky, the fortress city - Orario seemed to be in a state of turmoil.
Due to the extremely jubilant and no-holds-barred gods' extensive publicity, the result was an accumulation of extraordinary enthusiasm and excitement among the people of the entire city.
The day when the war game started was like a festival, with all the taverns opening early in the morning. Many adventurers chose to close their businesses on this day and crowded into the taverns to watch the game.
The streets near the central square were lined with various vendors on both sides of the road, with constant calls for help. Many civilians on vacation came here with their children, eagerly looking forward to the start of the war game.
And here, right in the lobby of the guild headquarters, the Ganesha clan had set up an exaggerated stage. A Ganesha clan member who claimed to be a live announcer was holding a magic stone loudspeaker, loudly and loudly creating an extremely hot atmosphere.
Next to the live announcer, there was a male god wearing an elephant-head mask, Ganesha, shouting loudly.
The audience gave bursts of applause in unison.
Hestia watched this scene from afar and entered the Tower of Babel from the other side where there were fewer people.
War games are a last resort to resolve family conflicts, but they are undoubtedly also a form of entertainment.
In order to watch such a battle, even residents from other regions came to watch. The guild would of course charge an admission fee at its discretion, and would also accept sponsorship and advertising from some businessmen.
Of course, these are secondary.
The reason why the guild was willing to take on this troublesome task was that such an event could show the strength of Orario to the world. It could be considered an act of demonstration while also attracting talented and promising adventurers to join the city.
As for the gods, just looking at the number of gods who arrived early at the venue of the Assembly of Gods, it is clear that they are actually looking forward to the arrival of the war game more than anyone else.
One of the biggest reasons why "War Game" came into being is because it is the ultimate entertainment pursued by the gods.
"Hey, little kid, what the hell is wrong with you? You've been preparing for so long and there are still only five people participating. Do you know that as soon as the match list came out, the odds outside suddenly reached 1:22?"
"That's right! Hestia, the atmosphere has become so heated. Even if it's just for the war game, you can't give up on yourself!"
"You disappoint us so much, Hestia!"
"If you had known this would happen, you should have told me earlier. I would have supported the tournament."
"That's right, that's right. If you had told us earlier, we would have given you a lot of support."
"This is good, the Loli God has given up, why are you guys so excited?"
"All of you guys participating in the competition behind the scenes, get out of here! A war game is only fun if the two sides are evenly matched and fierce. What's the point of a one-sided battle? It's a waste of the atmosphere that has been hyped up!"
"Don't worry, Hestia. When you leave Orario, we will definitely give you a good ride and give you everything you need for your trip."
"..."
"..."
Hestia turned a deaf ear to these words and sat down silently beside Hephaestus.
The gods were still making a fuss, but there was one person here who was feeling uneasy.
"God Hermes, is it really okay for me to stay here?"
Yasfi wanted to leave at this moment. In the conference hall of the Tower of Babel, she was the only member of her clan mixed in with the gods. She felt extremely uncomfortable and her whole body was extremely stiff.
"It doesn't matter. No one here is that picky."
Hermes just smiled and didn't take it seriously. As he said this, he raised his hand and took out the pocket watch from his clothes.
"Okay, everyone, it's about time."
After confirming the time, Hermes put away his pocket watch and said this loudly. Suddenly, the venue began to quiet down.
"Then, Uranus, please allow us to exercise our divine power."
The voice vibrated space, and after a few seconds, the gods received a response.
"--license!"
The steady, calm, and majestic declaration resounded throughout Orario.
At this moment, the gods in the fortress city all smiled and snapped their fingers almost at the same time.
