Chapter 488: The Beginning of the Rematch II
When Dean walked in front of Oilo, the future high-sai 'mercenary king' didn't speak immediately, but gestured to Dean for the shed that was erected next to him—a tent-like shed. , in front of Gaosai Palace, there is not only one place, but dozens of places.
Of course, these sheds will only appear during the National Founding Celebration, and once the National Founding Celebration is over, they will all be dismantled.
Therefore, a tent-like form was chosen.
Not only easy to build, but also easy to dismantle.
And under these sheds, some people gathered waiting crowds, some smelled the aroma of food and ale, and some even heard the sound of laughter.
The shed that Dean and Oyelowo entered was more like a hodgepodge gathering place.
There are people who drink, people who wait, and more people who are loud.
"The shed was built with the help of my generous employer - and she doesn't mind me giving an extra income, what a generous person!"
Oilo said, pointing to those waiting and noisy people.
Obviously, they were not Oilo's subordinates, but people who came to participate in the founding ceremony.
From the perspective of clothing, these people are still rich compared to ordinary civilians, so it is not difficult to pay some coins to stay under the shed.
"Just one silver horn can show the difference between me and ordinary people, what a cheap thing! Besides, the ale here is also mellow enough, and there are chairs..."
As he spoke, Oyelowo pulled up a chair and invited Dean to sit down.
Then. He and Sirik the Strong were sitting opposite Dean.
And when the three sat down. Those belonged to Oilo's men. They surrounded the surroundings to block the sight of others, and the increasingly noisy voices also perfectly blocked the conversation of the three of them.
"What's the matter?"
Dean glanced around and asked directly after seeing Oilo's arrangement.
The other party invited him to come, and there was still such a battle. Dean would never believe it, it was just gossip.
"About the rematch!"
Oilo suppressed the smirk on his face,
Said very positively.
"Oh? What kind of tricks did our Prince Fendel play?"
Dean laughed.
He really knows Fendel very well. Even in the face of failure, he is definitely not someone who gives up so easily.
"The prince of Fendel is really cunning. He proposed the concept of team competition in the rematch - three people form a group, and the twelve of us are divided into four groups, and then, the four groups fight in turn. Every time In the battle, everyone in each group has only one chance to be on stage; and in the end, the team with the most victories and the most times will enter tomorrow's final!"
When Oilo talked about the rules he had learned this time, he looked at Dean, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
Everyone can see that such a rule is to restrict Dean.
"So you're on a team with Sirik?"
Dean glanced at the 'Mighty' Sirik who looked a little embarrassed beside Oyelo.
"And Lord Chastain!"
Oilo added.
Dean frowned when he heard Chastain's name.
However, the next moment, Dean's brows relaxed.
From the so-called rematch rules that Oilo said, Dean naturally realized that they were coming against him, and under such rules, the "teammates" around him must not be too strong, otherwise, how could it be logical How about weeding him out?
Therefore, in the preliminary round, Chastain, who performed exceptionally well, would definitely not be in the same group as him.
"We are the third group, the first group is the team directly under the royal family headed by Markle, and the second group is composed of representatives from 'Soul Torturer' Mankel, 'The Shining' Dicky and Andro Prince Eddie's team, and Dean, you will form a team with 'Venomist' Rand and that lucky Stephen!"
Glancing at Dean, Oilo continued to talk about the news he got, and his tone during the period was unspeakably weird.
'Venomist' Rand is fine. Although he is not strong, he is also a silver-level powerhouse.
And that Stephen...
A guy who got away with his luck really didn't have any expectations.
Oyelowo can even imagine that in a short while, everyone will choose to abstain from facing Dean, and then chase Rand and Stephen the "Venomist" fiercely.
It seemed that they couldn't even pass the first round!
"Thanks!"
Dean nodded at Oyelowo. stood up.
Although the other party can't help him more, but the other party can tell him such news, for Dean, it can be regarded as friendly.
And Dean wouldn't ask for more.
In other words...the chest is already full.
A combination of him, Stephen, and "Venomist" Rand.
Among the four groups of people, it seems to be the weakest, but in fact?
To some extent, it should be the strongest!
You know, that Stephen, who seems to have passed by luck, is an assassin from the Brotherhood.
As for the "Venomist" Rand, there is a half chance that he should be from the God Cult or the Ring of Mobius.
Teaming up with such people, although you have to be more vigilant, but you don't have to worry about them being too weak and being bullied by your opponents.
Dean really wanted to see what those guys looked like when facing the true strength of their 'teammates'.
"Don't be too surprised!"
After adding this sentence in his heart, Dean waved goodbye to Oilo.
And Oilo didn't let Dean stay anymore. After all, he had already told Dean everything he knew, and Dean had to do the rest.
He's just a half-baked mercenary.
Even if you want to help, you can't.
...
Dean returned to the team, following behind Grand Duke Emerald. Entered the viewing platform of the Golden City——
In this viewing stand on the walls of the Golden City. Dean had a panoramic view of the scene outside the Golden City.
Two 30x45 (ft) rings. It has been built overnight.
At the moment, two teams of guards are guarding separately, and no one else is allowed to approach.
"His Royal Highness, please sit down!"
King Gao Sai, who was sitting in the center of the viewing platform, was still pale, and his speech was weak, but he still had the demeanor of a king.
Raising his hand slightly, he gestured to Grand Duke Emerald, then set his sights on Dean.
"Dean, you did not live up to the surname Zelgang!"
There was a hint of appreciation in his tone. He wasn't annoyed in the slightest by losing a large number of silver-level powerhouses yesterday.
However, Fendel's complexion changed, and he looked at Dean more and more unkindly.
"Your Excellency Zelgang, I hope you will continue to have excellent hedging today, and don't let the name Zelgang be ashamed!"
Fendel said indifferently.
"Hopefully, it's on the premise of fairness!"
Dean satirized the other party lightly.
"Of course it's fair. Today's rules are all arranged according to yesterday's personal performance!" Fendel smiled without changing his face, then pointed to a tent under the viewing platform, and said: "There is a rematch The place where the contestants are. Your Excellency Zelgon, hurry up and report! If it is late, it will be bad!"
"Thank you, Your Highness Fendel, for your reminder!"
Dean said so.
Then, after gesturing to Grand Duke Jade and the chief guard, he turned around and walked down the viewing platform.
Looking at Dean's back, Grand Duke Emerald and the chief guard brought their blessings.
And that Princess Gao Sai was worried.
Prince Eddie had a calm expression on his face.
On the other hand, Prince Fendel's eyes were full of malice and schadenfreude—he was expecting Dean's surprise when he faced the new rules.
...
Dean stepped into the tent for the playoffs.
Dean was the last one to arrive. All the players who had already stayed in the tent, except for Oilo who said hello to Dean, the rest of them nodded at most, and most of them sat there indifferently. Treating Dean as air, especially the Markle three who represent the royal family, is even more so.
Dean didn't care about that at all.
It's just a difference in faction, but strength will correct all this!
"Everyone, since the last contestant is here, let's announce the rules for the rematch..."
The person in charge of the rematch, a middle-aged man, came out, and behind him were two guards carrying a boxy wooden box.
The person in charge of the rematch read out the rules for the rematch.
No one on the scene showed a surprised look, obviously they already knew everything.
"Then, come and draw lots—there are twelve small balls with 1234 written on them, and there are three small balls for each number, and the people who draw three of the same small balls form a team! Your Excellency Zelgang, you are yesterday Therefore, please be the first to draw the balls!"
The person in charge of the rematch said so.
Dean nodded, walked straight up, reached into the box, and took out a small ball without deliberately selecting it.
4!
Here are the numbers above.
Holding the ball, Dean looked at the guard who was carrying the box—although the movement was slight and the box was special, but under the [Heart Like Still Water], it was not difficult for Dean to find a little movement in it.
However, Dean did not have extra problems.
After all, the situation in front of him was quite powerful for him.
Especially when this situation is facilitated by the opponent, he is not willing to give up the great situation in front of him.
"continue!"
Seeing Dean, who was holding the ball, walk back to his original position without any doubts, the person in charge of the semi-finals couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He knew that it was tricky, and he was very worried about showing his feet in this link before; but now Dean En didn't even notice, so his task was naturally completed.
Therefore, the following shouts seemed to be so full of spirit.
The first update of ps~(to be continued...)
