Tomorrow, I may have to go to a new area of responsibility and receive five new ascetics and teach them the laws of command, so I really don’t have time to come to the store.”
Zhaoye nodded.
Knew it……
In fact, in Zhaoye's world, store competitions and even provincial and national duel competitions often occur, but people are unable to attend due to personal work and other reasons.
This kind of thing is not uncommon, and I think there will be no shortage of it in this world.
Especially in this world where disasters and chaos are common, Zhaoye even realized that some of the frequent duelists in his shop had actually died without him noticing, and Zhaoye didn't even know where they died.
This is really a pity compared to the night.
When he was in school, he always felt that he had too little spare time to play cards. After work, he was driven by work pressure. The only thing that could relieve his fatigue and stress was cards.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ye couldn't help but nodding his forehead, he reached into his pocket, flipped through his card deck, turning over each card one by one. After searching for a while, Zhao Ye found a card.
"This card is for you." Zhao Ye said, "Consider it as a prize for the top four."
When Shiyue heard that Zhaoye was going to give her a card, she immediately stretched out her hands and solemnly took the card.
The card depicts a wolf-headed man with a scepter and sharp claws, looking extremely powerful.
Wolf the Lightbeast?
A four-star monster with an attack power of 2100?
October was a little surprised.
This card can be regarded as a by-product of Zhaoye's Bullet Manufacturing series. Because of its good stats and the fact that Zhaoye's current deck cannot be fully assembled, he just carries it with him reluctantly. Now, after several supplements, there is no need to carry this card anymore.
On the contrary, he thought that October's deck could include this card, so he gave it to her.
"Thank you." October looked at the card and accepted it. Then, she thought for a while and said, "Oh, by the way... Zhaoye, although this area is far from my management area.
However, the order has recently been extended to this area, and I can help you if you need it."
What she meant was probably that if Zhaoye needed help or encountered any danger, she could help him as a personal relative or friend instead of as an agent of command.
Zhaoye shook his head, indicating that it was unnecessary.
On the contrary, after October mentioned this, he suddenly remembered something.
Talk about it.
Negative cards...
"October, I heard from Weeks and the others that your [Index Finger] is a very powerful gang. So do you have any subordinate gangs under your gang?"
"I'm sorry, I... I've only been in contact with people directly under the command since I was a child, so I don't have any impression of subordinate gangs." October shook his head, "In fact, up to now, I have never heard of subordinate gangs. If the command requires it, we will act according to the command's guidance - including other gangs."
Meaning that the instructions didn't ask them to find younger brothers, so they just did it themselves, right?
"Then do you know about the Dice Gang?" Zhao Ye asked.
"The Dice Gang? I remember it was a nearby gang?" October frowned, his pupils slightly contracted, and said, "I remember now, it was those hooligans who rushed into the store before, right?
Are they giving you trouble? Do you need my help? "
October had some murderous intent.
Not October conceited.
With her fighting ability, it would be easy for her to destroy the entire Dice Gang alone.
All the people in a small gang like this might not be able to cause any harm to her if combined.
"Ah, no, not really." Zhao Ye shook his head, "I just want to ask, do you know anything about this Dice Gang?
After all, you are a member of the gang, so you should know more about the gang, right? "
Zhao Ye remembered.
He certainly couldn't stop his experiment, but at the same time, he couldn't rashly send out some dangerous cards, so he needed a relative "balance".
When he saw October, Zhao Ye suddenly thought of some familiar people.
Dice helps these "old friends" and "old brothers".
They are all kind-hearted people!
"Dice Gang?"
Shi Yue asked for more details and found out that the Dice Gang had actually rushed into Zhao Ye’s store and wanted to harm people.
She couldn't help but hold down the knife.
One night was enough time for her to kill them all.
However, she soon stopped this impulse.
Because she could see that Zhao Ye seemed to have other ideas.
Although she couldn't personally kill those who dared to provoke her friends, since Zhao Ye had his own ideas, she couldn't disrupt Zhao Ye's plans.
"October, can you tell me all the information you know about the Dice Gang?"
October nodded.
Compared to Zwe
Although those in the i Association only have a general idea of these gangs, October is very familiar with them.
“It’s [thumb].
Thumb is here recently, gathering miscellaneous soldiers.
They need some odd jobs to help them with some chores."
Miscellaneous soldiers?
Chapter 40 Duel Replay
According to October, the Dice Gang is an "urban legend" level gang, and in terms of level, it should be above the Poker Agency.
However, the reason why the Dice Gang is an "urban legend" is not because they are so powerful, but because more than a hundred people have died in the Dice Gang. To be honest, without actually taking action, it is hard to say who is stronger, the three people from the Poker Agency or the Dice Gang.
In the city, money is the decisive factor. It is normal for someone to be willing to use an urban legend-level commission to deal with the Dice Gang.
For Shi Zhi, gangs of this level are basically something he has no interest in just passing by and taking a look at.
In other words, the command has always been lacking interest in the subordinate gangs under Thumb.
[Thumb] is an urban gang that is also a [Urban Star] along with [Index Finger]. In their respective ruling areas, their rule over the region is even comparable to [Wing]'s rule over [Nest].
The thumb will gather and hire some gangs to do things for them.
Recently, the southern part of [Thumb] is mobilizing manpower to rush into the L nest that collapsed due to the breakage of the L wing, but the soldiers of the Thumb headquarters are very precious and have no time to deal with miscellaneous matters. In this case, it is natural to mobilize more "miscellaneous soldiers" to handle trivial matters for them.
Even Wicks didn't know this information.
In other words, Weeks simply had no access to this more internal and "high-end" intelligence.
L nest, miscellaneous soldiers, "good brothers", multiple nouns mixed together, suddenly aroused Zhao Ye's great interest.
This is the best choice!
Almost without hesitation, Zhao Ye took out the cards of the Dice Gang members again, preparing to carefully look at the records on the cards and do some new experiments.
Negative emotions may cause the perpetual motion machine to break down, but before that, the surroundings are already full of "negativity" and there is no room for further reduction. Rather than considering how to reverse it, it is more valuable to first find a way to reduce the intensity of gang fighting.
Compared to a direct fight, a duel is much less dangerous.
By the time October left, Zhao Ye had finished reading the data of [Vampire Siren] and had thought about the next manufacturing direction. Another day had begun.
It was a new day. Zhaoye yawned instinctively and heated a cup of coffee.
Because October got a promotion, he didn't show up in the store today, so people didn't come to the store until almost noon, when the game was about to start.
Some people came simply to watch the game, while others were not particularly interested in the game, but there were free drinks and food here, so they were ready to eat and drink for free.
Zhao Ye accepted all orders as usual and did not refuse any customer.
"Strange, manager, where is the woman with the index finger?" Wicks and the other two looked at the people in the store and asked with some confusion.
The store was no different from before, with the same familiar people still there. As for the contestants, You Zhou and the mysterious man in black were also there. The only one missing seemed to be the woman who was always the first to arrive but was nowhere to be found today.
"As for October, she came to the store last night." Zhaoye shrugged, "She said that she was promoted to an Agent and had new instructions to follow, so she couldn't participate in the next competition."
"What!?"
Wicks was horrified, and his two colleagues were also panicked. Everyone else, whether it was the light bulb workshop or other people, all had a look of horror on their faces. Even the man who couldn't see his true appearance couldn't help but be a little surprised, and his body trembled slightly.
what happened?
Zhaoye raised his eyebrows slightly.
Any questions for the agent?
The three members of the Zwei Association looked at each other in bewilderment. Hillar looked terrified, as if he had escaped death.
They had always thought that October was just an ordinary ascetic, so even though they were playing cards together, they were not too afraid. After all, it was impossible for the three of them to be unable to beat an ascetic, right?
As a result, Zhao Ye now told them that Shi Yue had been promoted to "agent"!
According to the association's experience and classification, the "ascetics" of the index finger are generally below the first level in combat power, some are strong and some are weak, and those who have just become ascetics may not even be able to defeat an ordinary member of the sixth department.
For a more elite team like the three of Wicks, they even thought that the three of them should be able to take down an ascetic.
But the "agents" are different! The index finger agents are basically equivalent to "first-level finishers". These "sixth-level" and "seventh-level" guys may not be enough for them to kill.
Especially since this person is a subordinate of "Index Finger", he is one of those people who may do something crazy at any time due to instructions.
People!
The three of them looked at each other, feeling relieved that they had survived the disaster, but also a sense of absurdity that "I actually played cards with an agent."
"Okay, everyone." Zhao Ye looked at their surprised expressions and could guess what they were thinking. He smiled and said, "No matter who October is, she has an identity, an identity exactly the same as yours - a duelist."
Zhaoye smiled and stretched out his hands, saying to the many guests: "No matter where you are from, no matter where you are, no matter what your status is, no matter whether you are rich or poor.
Just like everyone has their own identity, you can also sit at a card table, put aside all worries and pains, and play cards happily for a day.
As long as they are duelists, I will welcome them. I also believe that as long as they are duelists and as long as they duel, everyone's hearts will be connected and their understanding of each other will deepen.
Duel is a game that brings joy to people."
Many guests looked at each other.
Weeks couldn't help but open his mouth.
His colleagues obviously had no reaction, but Weeks felt his blood boiling.
Yes - don’t worry about your identity and status.
That woman with the index finger, no matter how strong she is, is still realistic. What does that have to do with a duel! ?
It’s like You Zhou has no fighting ability, but he regards You Zhou as his opponent.
Especially after watching You Zhou's quarterfinals match yesterday, he was even more convinced that You Zhou was a rare opponent for him, and this had nothing to do with anything else, it was simply because You Zhou was an excellent duelist!
A duel should not be mixed with any impurities!
"However, since October has given up, then friend [F] will advance directly, and the next semi-final will be...
[Wex] versus [Youzhou].
The outcome is that Wicks wins and Youzhou loses, so Wicks can choose to attack first or later - the duel is about to begin!"
coming!
Weeks' eyes sparkled.
You Zhou couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The two looked at each other, and their eyes collided, as if sparks could be ignited.
The duel is called!
Just as Zhaoye said.
There is no need to think about the identities behind each of them.
There is no need to consider personal combat effectiveness.
Duel is a game of passion and joy!
"Duel!"
