Monarch of the Dark Nights - C233
Yun Tu began to understand the rules of the game!
The second round of eliminations was very simple. Six of the twelve teams needed to buy the other six teams before they could leave. Obviously, the Fire Wind Gang was the first one to buy a competitor, and the first one to enter the top twelve was also the top six.
Soon after, a third person stood out and said, “Fire Wind Clan has given us three level two blood crystals. We will also give three. Come quickly and get them!”
The crowd whispered amongst themselves as they assessed their strength and gains. Not long after, a team captain from a small guild stepped forward and took the blood crystal before retreating.
The two deals were both at the price of three level two blood crystals, so the price wouldn’t increase that much. When someone else stood up and spoke up, the Ruan Family was also discussing in a low voice.
To Yun Tu, three Level 2 Blood Crystals was nothing. If he were to take the money and leave now, he wouldn’t even be able to see what the last Quest, the Boss, looked like. Therefore, he was obviously not willing to take the money and left.
Although his words were spoken softly, it was still heard by the bidder from the Mountain Flood Gang. The bidder had an evil smile on his face as he said, “Young man, don’t be greedy. Be careful not to eat a handful of rice!”
Not talking to him, but the other party actually came up to answer without reason, adding on that man’s evil grin, Yun Tu looked uncomfortable, so he stared at him and retorted, “We’re not short on money right now, so we want to stay and play. If you want to quit, I’ll add a Blood Crystal on you!”
“You really don’t care about face. I’ll see how you die later on!”
Perhaps he felt Yun Tu’s sharp gaze and after that person softly muttered something, he turned around to ask the others if they were willing to withdraw. Because Yun Tu said to add one, no one wanted to take his three blood crystals in a short period of time, and a few groups that wanted to withdraw also shouted for him to increase the price. Helplessly, he had to add five level one blood crystals before persuading the other group to withdraw.
Right now, there were only nine teams left, so they didn’t want to get too far. Yun Tu had also taken out three level two blood crystals and five level one blood crystals. The nine teams once again became eight teams, and they smoothly entered the top six.
In the end, two more teams made their moves. However, there was no change in the price. The 12 to 6 bidding war had finally been completed.
At this moment, all the people who did not have the qualifications were expelled from the hall by the host. The hall appeared much emptier, as if to win over the hearts of the people.
However, this time, he did not speak to Yun Tu again. Instead, he said to the Ruan brothers: “Surnamed Ruan, I am very clear about your strength, and I have persisted until now just to get a few more coins. If you withdraw from our Mountain Dragon Gang now, then the price will still be the same!”
Under normal circumstances, when a team was eliminated below six branches, there would be two ways to play!
If everyone had the same goal, then they wouldn’t need to be eliminated. When that time came, everyone would just rush forward and kill the BOSS. Then, everyone could sit down and use the amount of damage they received to decide which one to choose first.
If there were still people who felt that there were still too many people in the team, then there would be another round of eliminations!
If that happened, there would only be three teams left, and if the number of members was too low, their combat power would definitely be weaker. In a battle against a Boss, the risk would also be higher, but after killing the Boss, each team would receive two rewards, so these two methods had their strengths and weaknesses.
Right now, it was clear that the unity of this group was still not enough. First, the Shan Hong Gang felt that the Ruan Brothers’ group was too powerful and should be picked out once again.
The reason was very simple: the twelve to six families had already spent their money, so it was impossible for them to send it back at its original price. Now that man from the Mountain Dragon Gang had actually announced the original price, this was clearly a form of humiliation and provocation.
Although this was the first time the Ruan Family had entered this secret realm, the Clay Buddha also had an earth attribute. In addition, seeing Yun Tu’s confident look, the originally timid people also mustered their courage and bluntly replied, “Brother Shan Hong Gang, I have endured you for a long time. Since we have spent money to buy the qualifications, we do not intend to withdraw from this secret realm.
The man from the Mountain Flood Gang said sarcastically, “Yo, you have guts. You’re just here to play for money, and you even say that you’re very arrogant. When the time comes, don’t wet your pants directly when you’re looking for a BOSS. If you want to get a reward for a quest, no one will agree!”
Seeing the two of them bickering, the host from Qi Feng Hall formally asked everyone, “Is there a need for you six teams to be eliminated again? If there is no need for that, then I will make my move!” After saying that, he had the staff outside bring in the last small beast that was previously tied up.
He did not care much about the fight between the Ruan brothers and the other party. As long as he could find the Quest Boss in the end, his quest this time would be considered as complete. After everyone ejected from the secret realm and he was alone, he would be able to complete it.
However, everything was better than he had imagined. The man from the Mountain Flood Gang did not even need to look at Yun Tu directly and shouted loudly, “The team is mixed. Some people are obviously here to take over the team. I request another round of eliminations so that those who like to take advantage of the rules can have a taste of their suffering!”
If there were another round of eliminations and only three teams were left, then the risk of killing the quest BOSS would be extremely high. There might even be a large number of casualties.
Therefore, when they heard the other party’s words, the face of the Ruan Family’s people sunk and they also became nervous, but they, who usually looked gentle and gentle, were not weak and would not change their words if they did not withdraw. They gritted their teeth and replied, “Another round of eliminations is a round of eliminations, who is afraid of who?”
The host asked again, “What are the opinions of the other teams?”
“Another round of eliminations, I can’t bear to see those hooligans forced into the role of a true hero!”
That young man from the Fire Wind Gang, who paid for the withdrawal of the others, seemed to have a good relationship with the man from the Shan Hong gang.
Since half of the teams wanted to be eliminated, the host spoke again: “If you want to stay, then let’s bid. Don’t waste any more time.”
With the situation at this point, Yun Tu knew that if he didn’t say anything, the Ruan Family might not be able to hold on anymore. Therefore, he stood up and said formally, “I offer two Level 3 Blood Crystals, who is willing to withdraw?”
The first person to buy someone else to quit was actually him. Yun Tu’s performance once again blinded everyone’s eyes!
This price was not low. If not for the fact that they had agreed to it, both the Mountain Flood and Fire Wind Gang might have chosen to withdraw their money. However, since this price was offered by Yun Tu, the two of them naturally wouldn’t give up on face to receive this money.
Therefore, all they could do was coldly say, “Pretend, pretend. We’ll see how you die in a while!”
However, even if they didn’t accept it, it didn’t mean that they wouldn’t accept it. Another person from the six squads walked out with a smile. He cupped his hands towards Yun Tu and said, “Brother, you are outspoken. We, Crimson Fire, will go first!”
“Thank you, Crimson Fire Association’s brothers, for giving us face!”
When people gave me a foot, I gave them ten feet. Yun Tu took out two Level Three Blood Crystals and handed them to him with a smile. Then, he sent him out of the door.
No one had expected that Yun Tu would be the first to enter the sixth and third place. With this, it was the Mountain Flood Gang and the Fire Wind Gang’s turn to feel awkward.
Even if Yun Tu was a rank 3 expert, the Ruan Family was only rank 2. Everyone was well aware of this point. The Mountain Flood Sect had also clenched their teeth and offered a price of 2 rank 3 blood crystals. Naturally, the other family members immediately accepted it.
At this point, there were only four other families left in the hall. The Fire Wind Gang youth looked rather thick, but he was actually the smartest one among them, being able to directly lock into the top six at a low price at twelve in six.
If the three groups did not unite in the final battle, the consequences would be very serious. Therefore, he had the intention to retreat, and said to the captain of the other team with a smile, “Right now, one of the three groups is going to retreat. I will give you a Level 3 Blood Crystal, brother, can you give me some face?”
The guild that he was facing was called Qi Shan Alliance, and the team’s strength was not that strong, only a Level 3 Expert. They were also a little jealous of the two Level 3 Blood Crystals, but the first two times, they were robbed by the other two teams that reacted faster, so he wanted to get a high price too, so he pretended to be displeased and said, “They all gave two Level 3 Blood Crystals. The Fire Wind Gang’s eldest young master is not so stingy, if I give one Level 3 Blood Crystal, then your Fire Wind Gang will withdraw!”
He wanted to goad the other party into raising the price a bit more, but he had made things too simple. The moment he said those words, the Fire Wind Gang’s youngster readily agreed: “I am a very easygoing person, I have never been greedy. One is enough, our Fire Wind Gang will withdraw!”
This result greatly surprised everyone present. That man from the Mountain Flood Gang had never thought that his friend would choose to quit at the very last moment.
Because Qi Feng Society’s host was present, if word of this spread, the other guild leader could only helplessly produce a Level 3 Blood Crystal. At this moment, the elimination of the 60-3 position would be completed.
The price of one level three blood crystal was also a positive price, but the key point right now was that there were only five level three experts in the three teams, so even if they were united to fight against a level four blood tiger, it could only be considered as evenly matched. In a short battle, if the Shan Hong gang and the Ruan brothers were to engage in an internal conflict, then the three teams might all be annihilated by the level four blood tiger.
Now that the situation had escalated to this point, the host didn’t want to waste any more words. He tossed the last of the small beasts into the main hall and said, “Everyone, you have to know. After I go out later, I hope that everyone can come out together and complete the quest together!”
The captain of the last team agreed immediately, “The host is right, everyone listen to my advice, no matter how many grudges there were, no matter how great the enemy, it’s best not to take your life as a bet. After completing the mission, everyone will take revenge, and there will be grievances!”
Yun Tu looked at him and knew that this person wasn’t a bad person, so he said, “How could there be any problems? If the brothers of the Qi Shan Alliance are worried about internal strife, I will give them two rank 3 blood crystals to buy your share!”
When Yun Tu said this, the face of the Ruan Family had already turned ashen. The host beside them was also dumbfounded.
