"Whoever comes forward and wins a victory for me, I will give him the position of Captain of Ten Thousands!"
In the brightly lit garden, Woods roared angrily. He had lost two games in a row. How could he cope with his arrogance? At this moment, he wanted to kill everyone present to prevent this shameful scene from spreading.
When a group of subordinates who were hesitant heard about such a high reward, they could not hold back and stood up to fight.
"let me try!"
"Get out of here, of course it's me!"
"Downton, take action and let me see your strength!"
The orcs quarreled, and some even went directly to Downton to challenge him. The garden became a mess, as chaotic as a vegetable market.
Mistress Baenre pinched her eyebrows and was about to tell these guys to pay attention to their etiquette when Twilight spoke.
Shut up! Back off!
With just four words, the whole place was instantly silenced.
"God's Word?"
The onlookers were stunned. They glanced at the orcs whose mouths were tightly closed and could not speak a word, and their eyes were fixed on Twilight.
"What is this girl's identity? Can she even know the divine words?"
"What is her relationship with Downton?"
"They can't be a couple, right?"
Although Black Hand and Walnut are powerful, they are much inferior to God's Word, which means that Twilight's ascension to the position of Grand Marshal is almost guaranteed.
Woods originally wanted to roar, but found that the effect of the law of divine words actually enveloped him, making him unable to speak. Fortunately, he closed his mouth in time, otherwise it would be absolutely embarrassing to only have his mouth moving but no sound.
"Today is a dinner party hosted by the four mistresses. You must pay attention to the etiquette and stop embarrassing the people on the surface." Twilight said in an understatement, but no one dared to ignore her.
"Wonderful, really wonderful!" Mistress Ban Rui applauded and walked out, "Thank you all for the duel for us, it is really an eye-opener for us."
"No need to say polite words. Just tell me what your purpose is. I have to go back to catch up on my sleep. There is no time to waste."
Twilight interrupted the mistress.
There were some exclamations all around. Although everyone knew that the four matrons held a banquet together and must have something important to announce, no one dared to say it. After all, they were at the legendary level and could crush everyone present with one finger.
people.
"This girl is definitely not pretending to be calm!"
This group of aristocratic children have good eyesight, and they can see that Twilight is really not afraid of the four matrons, and the tone of her voice conveys the feeling of equal status.
"Why should she?"
Xuerle was jealous. Why did this strong man have a good relationship with Downton instead of being his best friend?
"Bold! How dare you be rude to your mistress!"
The high-ranking priests around stood up and glared at Twilight. The staffs were already in their hands, and several warrior captains also walked out of the darkness.
Twilight remained unmoved and looked directly at Madam Baenre. This demeanor alone made many people's hearts break.
"Haha. I do have something to inform everyone!"
Matron Baenre waved her hand, and her subordinates immediately withdrew. "I believe you all know that we will hold a dark ceremony in half a month. This is the grandest ceremony of our drow elves. Participants have the opportunity to win
Obtain an epic weapon and make a request to Queen Rose."
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and everyone came here just for this moment, but Mistress Ban Rui quickly changed the subject.
"However, not all cats and dogs are eligible to participate in the dark ceremony."
Everyone frowned, and Xu Erle even said, "Don't take advantage of everyone. If you need to spend money, no problem, I can still afford the ticket fee of several million."
"No, no, why do we ask for money? The divine prophecies of the Queen of Gods are not so easy to listen to. Just as we need to enter the fighting tower to undergo a trial to see the Queen of Gods, you also have to go there. Only those who arrive first
Only the top five people in the Fighting Martial Tower are eligible to participate in the Dark Ceremony."
"Ah? There are only five people in total who can participate?"
The hearts of the noble children suddenly became cold. Not to mention the scepter rank of Woods, even the strength shown by Twilight and Walnut was inferior to them. How could they compete?
"No, it's sixty places!" Matron Banre explained, "Each of the ten major drow families has a fighting tower. That is our altar, where we worship the Queen of Gods, plus the Spider Academy.
The huge martial arts tower in the center will be officially opened at noon tomorrow, and only the first five people on each tower to pass through can participate in the dark ceremony."
Discussions started immediately. Everyone was not stupid. With so many martial arts towers, it was not just a competition of strength. If you choose well, you can completely avoid strong enemies and get an admission ticket.
"I must make it clear that it is very difficult to clear the Fighting Tower because its death rate is as high as 80%."
A matron teased, but no one cared about her tone because they were all frightened by the terrifying probability.
"Then it's useless to participate. You might as well just let us die!"
"It's just that if you don't want to give me epic weapons, just say it."
"It's definitely a trick. You don't want us to be sacrificed to the Spider Queen first, do you?"
The noble disciples started making noises, some were angry, some were deliberately making trouble, and were ready to see if there was any possibility of reducing the difficulty.
Of course, there are also some who simply create obstacles for the drow because they believe they do not have the strength to clear the fighting tower.
Drow elves are insidious, cruel, and cold-blooded. This is not just what they say. The same is true for the education they receive. Countless students die in the fighting tower every year. Only those who come out alive will be recognized by the family, otherwise
Even women are not even considered consumables and can only do the most menial jobs.
They are so cruel to themselves, let alone a different race, so the nobles can be sure that what awaits them is definitely a fierce death storm.
"Hmph, if you don't have ambition and will, just get out of here. The Dark Ritual does not allow you to be tainted by the weak."
A mistress full of cold and glamorous temperament snorted coldly, and glanced at everyone with her ice-like eyes, making people shudder.
"Those who can achieve great things must have great perseverance. In order to prevent you from doubting our sincerity, the ten drow matrons have asked for a divine prophecy. The sixty lucky ones who have obtained the tickets will be bathed in divine grace and directly promoted.
level one!"
The mistress of the Deaver family smiled charmingly and dropped a bombshell.
"What?"
"Can I also be promoted to the scepter level?"
"Great, I want to participate!"
After receiving the affirmative answer, the nobles were excited, especially those who were in the bottleneck period, and couldn't wait to enter the fighting tower.
"What a big deal!"
With Twilight's calmness, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Sixty magic users were collectively promoted to the first level. If they were all upgraded to the scepter level, how powerful would it be? The always cunning Zhuo
Er's sudden generosity made her begin to doubt the ultimate purpose of the Dark Ritual.
"The weasel is definitely not being kind when it wishes the chicken New Year greetings!"
Downton has always been a man who doesn't believe in the world's pie. If there is no tempting bait, how can he take the bait?
"Haha, everyone already knows the plan. And I think many people have no intention of attending the banquet, so you can leave. Of course, if you want to stay and continue attending the banquet, we will still have a good time."
Mistress Banrui asked the servants to clean the garden and led everyone to the front hall.
"No need, just say goodbye!"
Woods had lost three games in a row, so he couldn't stand any chance. He was just looking for an excuse to leave.
"Everyone, my friends and I will enter the fighting tower of the Spider Academy. If you are interested, you can come together!"
Downton seemed to be talking to everyone, but his eyes were fixed on Woods, which was full of provocation.
"You are crazy. You should keep it secret at this time and find a fighting tower without strong people."
Blackhand has a little complaint.
"You are wrong. It is precisely because most people have similar ideas that they have to make a big deal about it. I dare to believe that as soon as Downton's words come out, many people will avoid this cave. Even Woods is no exception."
Twilight explained.
"No, Woods is not bad at all. If he uses all his firepower, Downton may not be able to win!"
Black hand holds objection.
"Have you forgotten the divine grace bath? Only the top five people are eligible to receive it. Even Woods has absolutely no confidence that he can be among the top five after killing Downton."
Twilight glanced at Downton and secretly thought that this kid reacted really quickly. In fact, she would have said it even if he didn't say it. In short, it could make some people avoid him.
"Everyone, see you tomorrow." Downton turned and left, "Woods, don't shrink your eggs, I'll wait for you."
"Why are you provoking him? What if he really can't swallow this breath?"
The black hand complained.
"Wouldn't it be better to come? Then the other forces will definitely retreat in the face of difficulties." Downton pretended to be bold and laughed loudly. With Twilight and Charlotte here, he really wasn't afraid of these famous younger generations.
After leaving the Banre family's mansion and returning to the hotel, he didn't meet anyone from the Dupont family, so Downton was surprised, "Why didn't you come? The more prosperous my life is, the more embarrassing their family will be, right?"
"If what I predict is correct, I will deal with you in the martial arts tower."
Twilight guessed correctly, Yi Lei had already called the Scepter Order to help in the battle, but after getting the news, he changed his mind. Otherwise, by consuming precious combat power on Downton, wouldn't it be an advantage to others?
"Okay, let's all go and rest!"
Downton settled his men and called Twilight and others into the bedroom. While treating Hu Tao, he made a plan.
"What other plans have you made? Just call over!"
Hu Tao's tactics have always been simple and crude. If he can use his brain, he will never do it.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night for many people. As the mistress spread the news, the whole city never fell silent again. Some adventurers couldn't wait any longer and simply rushed to the foot of Wu Pagoda, preparing to set up tents and camp nearby. Unfortunately, they were on duty
The guards drove away.
When the light underground gradually reached its brightest, Downton and his party rode their precious mounts to the Spider Academy. The servants guarding the door confirmed their direction and immediately went back to report.
It has become a consensus to avoid strong players and choose competitors with similar strength.
When Downton arrived at the academy, he found that nearly a thousand adventurers were already waiting eagerly. (To be continued...)
ps: Sorry, today’s update, let me adjust my status and sort out the follow-up plot.
In addition, Downton's servant is about to appear, you can guess what it is!
