The population of King's City was now exploding. Among so many people, it was really a rare fate for acquaintances to meet each other.
Of course, they should have been together.
"Kitchen knife?"
Listening to Dr. Görs and the other two talk about their experience after the prison break, Boss Luo was quite curious about the details of the kitchen knife. But Dr. Görs held this kitchen knife very tightly. Even when he took it out, he didn't let it go.
It was this kitchen knife.
Boss Luo picked up on the street that day and met Ji Lian because of this kitchen knife. It was made by Max himself, so Boss Luo wasn't too surprised that it could cut open the shackles of the garrison division.
Luoqiu didn't take the initiative to mention that he was working for the truth of Max's murder at this time. He was just curious about what the castle trio would do next.
"We plan to sign up for the competition." Tina said slowly, "This is the only way we can get in touch with Princess Carol. However, it doesn't look good now. Today, the most talked about thing in King's City is the arrival of the Dragon Queen Hilda. Mr. Luo, we are all in the same team. You should find a way to win this game with us. "
Among the castle trio, Dr. Görs usually took the lead to speak. It was rare to see Tina, as a maid, leading the conversation. Perhaps it was because Dr. Görs didn't want to talk to Boss Luo anymore.
Nan Xiaonan looked at the castle trio at this time, and then looked at Mr. Luo. She didn't think about it and stood on Mr. Luo's side. The witch of her sub-world, who was used to big storms and big waves, didn't care about the time spent in the [Chessboard] world.
Her life had been long. The decades in her memory were really a blink of an eye.
If Mr. Luo planned to stay here for a long time, she would be more than happy to see him. Only a long-term company could conquer a person's inner sanctum … Perhaps as a true companion, or as a close friend, or as two people with a closer relationship.
She was the one who said that she was going to hug his thigh. No one could stop her!
"Miss Tina looks a little anxious." Boss Luo thought and said, "Did something happen?"
Tina nodded, "Presumably, Mr. Luo should also know that Mr. Varley has come to King's City. He is obviously with Miss Gong Linna's follower. Even we don't know how deep Mr. Varley's business in this [Chessboard] world is. If we can't pass the game with Mr. Varley one step earlier, I'm afraid there will be many variables. You know, there are still many things we don't know about this world. "
"Okay, let's participate..."
"… So, to Wally's reality, we are like … what did you say?"
Boss Luo smiled, "Okay, let's take part in the competition."
"you"? " Tina's rhythm seemed to have been disrupted. For a moment, she actually forgot what she was supposed to say.
"Shouldn't I?" Boss Luo asked curiously.
"No." Tina had to shake her head and said subconsciously, "If so, then I …"
"It seems that tomorrow's competition will be held as scheduled." Boss Luo immediately interrupted again, "Since we will participate in the competition under our own names, let's meet on the stage after the audition. Lady Nan and I have something to do, so we won't disturb you."
"Okay..
. "The maid felt that she couldn't say no. She just nodded silently until Boss Luo and Nan Xiaonan disappeared in the vast crowd.
Dr. Görs gently patted Tina's face at this time with an expression that said, "Now you know the scary part of this guy."
Tina was silent, and Mr. Snève frowned. "What's so scary about him?"
Dr. Gerles said calmly, "You'll find that it's actually hard for you to refuse any of his requests … If he makes a request, it's as if there's a mysterious force controlling your feelings. So, it's not because I like to be in the limelight that I take the initiative to negotiate with him every time. It's just that I know that I can do a better job than all of you when facing such a terrifying situation. "
"Stop pretending to be mysterious." Snève said indifferently, but no one knew whether he was talking about Görs or their temporary team leader.
Görs ignored him. "Since he agreed to participate in the competition, the next thing will be easy. With the ability he obtained in the Chessboard world, it should be easy for him to enter the finals. No matter what, as long as one of our team can come into contact with Princess Carol, our plan can be carried out. "
Dr. Görs' plan was actually very simple. That was to find a way to get close to Princess Carol and poison the princess. Only he, Görs, had the ability to detoxify the poison.
At that time, he would appear as the mysterious healer and announce that he had cured Princess Carol. That way, he would be able to walk around the palace openly. As for how to summon the kingdom's guardian, he would have many more options to choose from.
Görs suddenly thought of this plan after he woke up from his drunken stupor last night. He almost didn't receive any objections and directly made the decision.
As for the drunken stupor, although he was puzzled, Görs checked the information after he got drunk and didn't find anything wrong. Although he still had a lot of doubts in his heart, he could only temporarily attribute it to the bottle of old wine hidden under the bed. It was really old wine … it was strong enough.
"Let's not talk about it anymore. Since there's still some time, I have to quickly search for the necessary ingredients to make the poison. The capital is so big, I should be able to find them. " Dr. Görs smiled and said, "I'll let you know how lucky it is to have a doctor in our team."
"You're so reliable, doctor!" Tina looked at him with a face full of admiration.
Dr. Görs said, "We shouldn't stay on this street. Perhaps, Varley is hiding somewhere, spying on us."
He's already been here … Tina thought to herself.
… …
… …
— You've obtained Undead Norma's [Heart of Sanctum] and all her skills. You've opened the door to the Sanctum. The [Death Walker] profession has been completed and you've become the [Saint of Death].
— Norma used her soul as the price to activate the [Curse] on you. The conditions to remove the curse are: Kill Princess Carol, kill King Amos, and bury the entire royal family of the Kingdom of Elnis. The time limit is one year.
— If you fail after one year, the [Curse] will activate and you will become a Undead like Norma.
— Undead Norma still has something to say to you before she dies. Do you want to hear it?
"I don't f * cking want to hear it!"
Tang Tianlin, who had just woken up from his muddle-headed state, was instantly filled with notifications from the [Chessboard].
After removing a bunch of useless information such as profession abilities and leveling up, he knew that he had been cursed. Old Tang was furious.
— Undead Norma was unable to say her last words. She died with regret.
“???”
Tang Tianlin opened his mouth subconsciously. He looked at Norma, who had widened her eyes and opened her mouth slightly. She seemed to have something to say, but he couldn't find the words to curse. This guy was arranged to die just like that. He didn't even have time to say his last words?
"Wait! What did he want to say to me? " Tang Tianlin couldn't help but frown and show a hint of anxiety. "At least let me know what he wanted to say in the end!!"
However, only Tang Tianlin's voice was echoing in the underground cave of the palace. There were no more notifications from the [Chessboard].
After waiting for a long time, Tang Tianlin knew that he couldn't wait any longer. He looked at Norma, who had died with her eyes wide open, and could only sigh. Then, he buried Norma hastily and crawled out of the cave.
What surprised Tang Tianlin was not that it was already dawn outside. It was that no one seemed to have entered the room he was in since last night.
He tried to open the window and found that there were still Princess Carol's personal guards standing guard outside. It was the same ones from last night.
"What's the matter?" Hearing the movement, the guard turned around and asked in a deep voice.
Tang Tianlin said tentatively, "It's dawn. I want to eat something?"
"When it's time, a maid will bring you food." The guard said indifferently, "If there's nothing else, stay in the room and don't come out."
Tang Tianlin had to ask again, "When can I be summoned by Her Royal Highness?"
The guard said indifferently, "When Her Royal Highness wants to see you."
After saying that, the guard closed the window directly. Tang Tianlin couldn't help but open his mouth. It seemed that he had been underground all night and hadn't been discovered.
At this time, after learning about what happened to Norma, Tang Tianlin no longer had the initial idea of coming in contact with Princess Carol. Based on what happened to Norma, it was likely that the champion of the Battle Arena had been reduced to Princess Carol's plaything all along. If he wasn't played to death, then he was lucky enough to survive and become the princess's personal guard.
Tang Tianlin had long felt that these guards were somewhat unusual. They seemed to lack emotions and were quite rigid in doing things.
"Let's see what skills the new profession has after breaking through … Sanctum?"
Tang Tianlin had to sigh. After inheriting Norma's power, how much his capital to survive in the [Chessboard] game had increased.
"That's not right … Can the servant's profession continue to improve after reaching the upper limit?" Tang Tianlin was startled at this time. "Isn't this breaking the fixed rules?"
Tang Tianlin looked at his hands subconsciously at this time and muttered to himself, "I always feel that even if I face Wally now, I can still …"
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside the room. After breaking through the profession, Tang Tianlin found that his hearing had become extraordinary.
He almost didn't think about it and instantly launched a new skill … [Aura Elimination].
This almost instinctive operation made him look sharp in an instant. Compared to yesterday when he defeated his opponent in the Battle Arena, he was a bit sharper … But it wasn't the appearance of a Sanctum.
At this time, a beautiful woman pushed the door and came in. The woman's face made Tang Tianlin lose his mind for a moment. But his mind had always been firm.
"Are you the new champion of the Battle Arena?" The beautiful woman at this time said indifferently, "The momentum is not bad, the limit of the profession … It seems that the Battle Arena has indeed sent a very good talent this time."
"You are … Her Highness the Princess?" Tang Tianlin asked tentatively.
"My name is Laura, the head maid of Her Highness." The beautiful woman … Laura at this time said indifferently, "I came here to tell you that Her Highness the Princess will be meeting with Her Majesty the Empress in the next few days, so she has no time to meet you. So, now there are two arrangements for you, it's up to you to choose."
"Miss Laura, please speak."
Laura said, "First, you can continue to stay in the palace. Her Highness the Princess will find time to meet you after the national competition. Second, you can leave the palace and participate in the national competition as a seeded player … Perhaps, you can win the favor of the Princess as the champion of the national competition. "
"I choose the second one." Tang Tianlin thought for a moment and said.
Laura looked deeply at Tang Tianlin, then nodded and simply said, "Someone will arrange for you to leave the palace … So be it."
"Miss Laura, please take care." Tang Tianlin said rather modestly.
Not long after, a maid came and gave Tang Tianlin a token to directly advance in the national competition. Then she had two guards send Tang Tianlin directly out of the palace. This trip to the palace was completely contrary to his original intention.
… …
… …
On the main street.
Boss Luo suddenly stopped. In this regard, Nan Xiaonan struggled for a moment.
She struggled whether she should pretend that she didn't notice and directly bump into Boss Luo — or whether she should follow suit.
According to the practice of the scholarly ladies, there was no doubt that the first one was the correct way. So, the struggle instantly came to an end.
As the saying goes, as long as you have the courage, you can have a maternity leave tomorrow!
At this moment, the witch of the sub-world's academic school suddenly took a bigger step and was about to bump into Boss Luo's back — She had to adjust the angle. It would be best if she could use her soft part to accidentally hit Boss Luo.
"Lady Nan, be careful."
"Ah?"
A burst of coolness.
Nan Xiaonan at this time opened her eyes wide and subconsciously raised her wet head … She saw an old woman holding a basin and complaining, "What are you looking at? Didn't you see the water warning downstairs? "
I just want to bump into Boss Luo like a scholarly lady?
"There's a clothing store over there." Boss Luo comforted her, "Let's go there … You'll catch a cold."
Nan Xiaonan reluctantly nodded.
At this time, Boss Luo suddenly said, "It's better to buy a set of men's clothes."
“??”
