Hate Me, Miss Witch!
Chapter 88: Kill first and tell later, royal power charter
Lori looked at the revolver in front of him, his face gray.
He didn't know what went wrong with this gamble. The unfailing deal he had made with the spiritual demon in the past was now useless, but the ironclad fact was already in front of him.
The first five rounds were all blanks, and now he was about to face the last round.
The entire city that never sleeps was silent, and everyone just watched helplessly as Luo Li's expression changed uncertainly.
Finally, his expression stabilized, and the corners of his dry mouth opened into an ugly arc: "I think there were some mistakes in this gambling game. This is the dereliction of duty on my part as the banker."
As soon as Lori's words came out, everyone knew his intention.
There is no doubt that he is going to play rogue, or flip the table.
Everyone knows that this behavior is shameless, but we must admit that it is indeed very effective.
What the "audience" witnesses is only the bet itself. As for how the bet will be executed after it is completed, it will not interfere. This has also been the position of the "audience" all along.
As the banker, as the owner of this casino, if Viscount Lowry is determined to turn his back on his business, no one can force him to do anything.
Again, the referee, the referee, the witness, the organizer, and the co-organizer are all mine. What are you going to fight with me for?
Such behavior will certainly make the reputation and reputation of this casino plummet, and even the business will be worse than before, but when it comes to matters such as reputation and life, everyone knows how to choose.
Suddenly the punters in the audience were in an uproar, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xia Ya on the stage.
Some people are still lamenting Xia Ya's crazy operation, while others are regretful that this shocking gambling ended in such a scoundrel.
However, on one side of the gambling table, Viscount Lowry's expression suddenly changed.
Because, right now.
He clearly felt that for some reason, his mental power and soul began to be swallowed up by something.
In an instant, his mental power dimmed a bit, and it wouldn't take long before he would completely fall into nothingness.
"Are you crazy? I promised you that the souls of five hundred people will naturally satisfy you."
"Have you forgotten how we traded before? Five hundred souls are nothing to me, you should know that!"
His mental power was roaring at the top of his lungs, but the answer to Lori was just that deep and dark whisper.
"That was the past."
"Now you have lost the ability to fulfill the contract."
"The souls of those who break the promise are also part of the deal."
The emotionless whisper of the devil sounded, and the next moment, Lori felt like part of his soul was torn out again.
That painful feeling of being swallowed up mentally. It further distorted his already ugly old face.
Losing the roulette bet is not a dead end for Luo Li. As long as he can ignore his face, no one can force him to fulfill any bet. The worst is that the reputation of the city that never sleeps will be completely destroyed.
But what frightened Lori most was that his biggest trump card, the spiritual demon, also turned against him.
The slaves he currently has in his hands are indeed not as many as the six hundred souls he promised to supply to the spiritual demons.
But with his accumulated wealth and secret connections, it is not difficult to collect hundreds of souls from all over the Western Continent as tribute at any cost.
However, judging from the other party’s words——
It seems that the spiritual demon believes that he has lost the qualification to fulfill the transaction.
Tear--
Part of Luo Li's soul was torn off again. He had only achieved the fourth ring by relying on the spirit demon, and he had never tempered his mental power like an ordinary beast master.
Facing the backlash at this moment, Lori didn't even have the slightest ability to resist or struggle.
"I see……"
"I see……"
In the severe pain of his soul being devoured, Viscount Lowry's eyes were fixed on the eyes of the mysterious man in front of him, with an indescribable blood color.
He staggeredly raised the revolver, and then pointed it at himself.
This mysterious person's rank should be lower than mine, and there is no way he would cheat in front of a sixth-ring "audience".
And the spiritual devil's deal must have been concluded, and his luck has been improved. This is the basic rule that every devil in the abyss must abide by when making a deal.
Under such circumstances, no matter how small the probability is, there is only one answer left.
In the magazine, the remaining live ammunition——
It's a dud.
Although the ammunition assembly line of the Imperial Military Factory is now quite complete, there is still a probability of producing a dud bomb from 3 to 7 to 10,000.
So the mysterious man fired four shots in a row and nothing happened.
Because from the beginning, this bet was a draw——
There will be no winner or loser.
Viscount Lowry tremblingly raised the silver-white revolver, and made an ugly arc at the corner of his mouth.
"I admit...you did win."
"But I haven't lost yet."
His old finger suddenly pulled the trigger, while his bloodshot eyes stared directly at Char in front of him.
"I remember you."
"Today's events will not end here. From now on, I will..."
boom--
Fire burst out from the muzzle of the gun.
The next moment, the shattered pieces of flesh and blood collapsed on the gambling table together with the headless old body.
…
A huge noise sounded.
A moment ago, the gamblers thought that the banker could no longer afford the game, and were still sighing with regret for the mysterious guest.
But the next moment, they witnessed the king who had sat on the throne of the Evernight City for decades, his head blooming in front of them, turning into a headless corpse.
Xia Ya looked at the headless corpse that fell to the ground in front of him, but his expression remained calm.
Just now, he sensed that there was a vague consciousness peering at him from the spiritual world.
From that prying consciousness, Charia noticed a familiar corrupted aura. It seemed that it was related to the abyss, and maybe it was the trump card on Lori's body.
So, with the idea of trying it out, Char equipped the title of "blasphemer" and activated the red "Filthy Blood" and "Dark Descendant" skills.
The next moment, Xia Ya noticed the line of sight peering into him from the spirit world, and quickly retracted it like a frightened deer, with indescribable fear and vague respect.
Thinking about it, it was the blasphemous and filthy energy that caused the abyssal being to misunderstand something, mistaking him for the newborn evil god born from the bottom of the abyss, or the son of the evil god disguised as a human.
Immediately afterwards, Viscount Lowry's expression changed drastically, and he fired the suicide shot at himself, which actually saved Xia Ya a lot of time.
"He has mastered some kind of ability to temporarily improve his luck through transactions..."
"But, we still lost."
On the side of the gambling table, the audience member who looked like a priest and wore a white robe, "Ranger" Thoros, looked at Char and spoke in a voice that sounded like a chant.
The distance he was standing at would undoubtedly be affected by Viscount Lowry's splashing flesh and blood, but Thoros' white robe was still clean.
The moment those flesh and blood were about to touch him, a soft white light rose silently, blocking out all the filth.
Thoros looked at Char, his eyes still calm.
"It's not an illusion——"
"What you used just now is a certain ability that can directly interfere with destiny like him."
"Moreover, the degree of your interference in destiny is far deeper and more direct than Lori's simple improvement of his own luck."
Xia Ya stood up indifferently, turned and left the gambling table: "Maybe, who knows."
In his mind, a line of blue characters slowly emerged.
[Your limited-time super skill experience card: "Izanagi" has expired]
"Izanagi"
This is Xia's ability to use this experience card to let Yin Suo adapt in advance.
Being able to turn things that happen within a period of time that are not good for you into illusions, and only choose the factors that are good for you to turn into reality.
Although it is still theoretically classified into the scope of illusion or pupil magic, according to Char's understanding, "Izanagi" has actually been involved in the field of time system.
It is a skill that can change your destiny in a real sense.
The moment Char turned the wheel magazine, he activated "Izanagi".
He rewrote the timeline where he was shot, which occupied the vast majority, and turned it into nothingness.
And only keep a very small possibility of Lowry being shot, and then make it a reality.
Of course, the limitations of time-based or fate-based skills that are so outrageous that they can even be described as loading files and SL skills are naturally not small.
If the original setting is followed, the price will be permanent blindness in one eye after use. In other words, a normal person can only use "Izanagi" twice in his life. After all, he only has two eyes.
After being modified by Char Demon on Yin, with the improvement of proficiency, the cost of releasing the skills should not be as outrageous as permanent blindness, but the side effects will definitely not be small.
Fortunately, it is a temporary experience card, which directly eliminates the side effects. Otherwise, Char would not use such an ability as a trump card to deal with the little Viscount Lowry in front of him.
Char and Soros passed by each other without stopping.
He was not surprised that the other party roughly guessed his abilities.
After all, he is still in the sixth ring, and he has such a big name as "audience". If he doesn't have any real reputation, he would be a bit of a novice.
But just look at it. If you can guess the general scope of interfering with destiny, you will die. As for the specific details, let him guess slowly.
"you are very funny."
"In my "audience" life, you are one of the very few exceptions I have seen. "
The middle-aged priest's calm voice sounded behind Xia Ya.
"Perhaps, we will meet again one day."
"And, maybe that day isn't too far away."
"Okay, stop riddles. I already have enough riddlers around me, and you are the one I really need."
Char waved his hand casually and walked down to the top of the Evernight City, disapproving of Thoros's words.
These days, he has seen a lot of this kind of riddle. He tells some mysterious riddles but refuses to solve them. He just lets the listeners make up their own minds. When they are connected with what happened in reality, they can in turn verify the riddle. The inscrutable nature of this deity.
Therefore, Xia Ya's style towards such riddles has always been to let it go.
You can ask random riddles, and I'll just pretend that nothing happened. Anyway, Xia Ya will never engage in that kind of meaningless speculation and mental exhaustion.
…
Char's figure appeared in the lower casino.
With the appearance of Char, the casino, which was originally noisy and chaotic, became silent at this moment.
Everyone looked at the mysterious man wearing a half-mask in front of them with silence and even awe.
In the corner of the casino, the blond girl stood up at some point and followed Xia silently.
"Now, do you know why His Highness chose him to be the boss?"
A slight smile appeared on Diris's lips, she spoke to the Nightingale and Dark Crow beside her, and followed Xia's footsteps with brisk steps.
Nightingale nodded and followed with the assassin's ghostly movement.
However, before leaving, she looked at her sister in surprise.
I saw Dark Crow still sitting on the chair in the corner, and after a long time he stood up awkwardly.
The slender thighs were slightly clamped, and the white fingers kept pulling the skirt downwards, as if they wanted to cover something.
And on Dark Crow's originally plain white face, a faint blush appeared at some point.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Nightingale looked at her sister, who had a flushed face, and couldn't help but feel a little confused in her words.
But then, her question was interrupted by Dark Crow's forcedly serious voice.
"No, it's nothing."
"By the way, I'll go to the bathroom first and tell the leader I'll be there in a minute."
…
The group of people passed through the huge casino, and the onlookers quietly moved out of the way.
After a moment, Char's figure stopped at the edge of the casino, in front of a metal wall.
Xia reached out and knocked a few times on the seemingly flawless metal wall.
The next moment, as the mechanism started to function, the seemingly tight metal wall quietly opened, revealing the secret door inside.
After the secret door is a downward passage that leads directly to the ground.
"Guest, although you won the bet, this area is a working area and outsiders are not allowed to enter."
A rushing voice sounded in Xia's ears.
It was a strong man in uniform, with a powerful aura lingering around him.
He is the second-in-command of the Thorn of Sin and comes from the Borgia family.
Although he is nominally the deputy of Viscount Lowry, in fact, it is the Borgia family who is much more powerful in combating Lowry, the white-glove monitor, than Lowry, the pure gambler.
Therefore, although he was also surprised by Luo Li's defeat and suicide, when he saw Xia Ya's behavior, he still hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
Hidden in that secret passage are the most darkest secrets of this city that never sleeps.
If it is really exposed without preparation, even the Borgia family will suffer a big shock.
The strong man suddenly came to Xia Ya's side and stretched out his hand to stop him. Although his words were quite polite, his actions were ruthless and even a little murderous.
The other party will directly come towards the secret door and the secrets underground in the Nightless City. There is no doubt that they are the enemies of the Borgia family.
In the city that never sleeps, even if he kills someone directly, it doesn't matter. He has too many channels to solve the trouble after killing someone.
But, the next moment.
The awe-inspiring aura, accompanied by the hot silver light, suddenly shined in front of the strong man.
boom--
The shining silver gun suddenly knocked the strong man dozens of meters away and smashed into a wall before stopping.
cough--
He coughed out blood, mixed with internal organs fragments, and then suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Xia's group of people in the distance who were unmoved at all.
"Who are you that dare to directly attack a noble's property?"
The strong man spoke in shock.
He was dealing with other things before and was not very clear about the specific process of the gambling. He hurried to the scene only after Lori died.
He originally thought that the other party was just a simple gambler, and Lori accidentally overturned the car, but now it seems that the other party is obviously not a gambler at all.
But from the beginning, they were targeting the city that never sleeps, and even the Borgia family behind the city that never sleeps.
"Don't spread rumors. This place was indeed the property of Viscount Lowry."
"But now that Viscount Lowry is dead, he still committed suicide by admitting defeat. He did not leave any gifts or transfer agreements before his death."
"So, the current Guilty Thorn Club is a no-man's land."
"And according to imperial law, agencies as law enforcement agencies have the right to search unowned properties."
"During this period, anyone who interferes with the law enforcement process or endangers the personal safety of law enforcement officers can enjoy unlimited rights of self-defense."
Char's calm voice sounded.
He thought for a moment and pinned a coat of arms on his chest.
Looking at the silver shield with interlaced patterns of World Tree and Silver Sword, the strong man's pupils suddenly shrank.
As a crony sent by the Borgia family to monitor Lori, he certainly knew what this coat of arms represented.
That was the dark cloud that once hung over every noble family with their own little thoughts.
Therefore, as long as there is a slight disturbance in this organization, it will trigger a thunderous attack from the great nobles, just because the shadow left on them was so deep, even if the name has disappeared for hundreds of years, they still cannot let go.
"Of course, the above are all meaningless cliches. In fact..."
"The so-called sword holder - kill first and then show off, authorized by the imperial power."
"If you are not convinced, just go to Her Royal Highness and read my book."
The strong man opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.
But the next moment, the gun light that broke through the air wiped out his body and consciousness together.
It's a little late.
Anyway, please vote for me!
