Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Chapter 231: A Gamble That Ignores Family Ties

Parties were usually held daily in the banquet hall on the top floor of the Arena of Life and Death. However, the parties were canceled due to a situation. At that moment, two groups were facing one another.

The first group was a group led by the Lord of Ultimate Evil. Secretary Irene stood by his side. Behind him were the managers of the Arena of Life and Death and famous powerhouses from the capital of Ultimate Evil.

The powerhouses were blessed by the Lord of Ultimate Evil and lived in the capital. When necessary, they would stand behind the evil lord to become his main supporters.

On the other side was Jackson, who came with a provocative purpose. His body was emitting blue light as he sat quietly on a chair. His old face, which was condensed, had a confident smile on it. Behind him stood a group of creatures with the same appearance as him.

The Lord of Ultimate Evil pressed his hands on the table and asked impatiently, “Jackson! Tell me, what exactly do you want to bet on?”

“It’s very simple. I heard that there are countless participants in your arena, and they have rich combat experience. Then let them take turns to fight. I only have one slave. As long as your participants can beat him, then you win! How about it?”

The Lord of Ultimate Evil narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard that. Although he had many contestants under him, none of them were stronger than a level 30 creature. Although Jackson’s suggestion seemed to be beneficial to him, it was just on the surface!

How could Jackson, a guy who would not get up early if he did not have any benefits, make a losing deal?

There must be a trap in this bet!

The Lord of Ultimate Evil frowned and asked, “What is the level of your slave?”

Jackson tilted his head and thought for a moment. He then said with a smile, “There’s no level! It’s just that his body is relatively strong, enough to fight against opponents below level 30!”

“There’s no level?”

The Lord of Ultimate Evil looked at Jackson with some confusion. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “If he really doesn’t have a level, the bet can be established!”

After hearing the Lord of Ultimate Evil agreeing to his bet, Jackson could not help but laugh happily. He knocked on the table with his hand and asked, “The bet is established. What should we use to make a bet?”

“What do you have to bet?” said the Lord of Ultimate Evil with some disdain.

Jackson looked at the Lord of Ultimate Evil with a half-mocking and half-disdainful gaze. He waved his hand behind him. Immediately, a subordinate came up with an exquisite box made of blue crystal and placed it on the table in front of Jackson.

There were five dazzling rings inside the box. There were made of an unknown material and were shining with blue light.

The Lord of Ultimate Evil widened his eyes in shock and muttered, “These… could they be?”

Without waiting for the Lord of Ultimate Evil to finish stuttering, Jackson spoke first, “That’s right! These are the world rings that I used to gain access to each world after I sealed them. There are five worlds in total! Only through these rings can I go to the world that I sealed. I have never touched the resources and ruins inside. You know that with my status, I would not be able to lie about such a thing!”

The Lord of Ultimate Evil swallowed his saliva. He was no doubt interested. He nodded and said, “Indeed, with our strength, if we say anything or go back on our words, we will definitely become the top joke in the Black Hole world! I can bet with you, but I don’t have five worlds as a bargaining chip!”

Jackson shook his head and said, “You don’t need to use five worlds to bet with me! The reason why I sealed those worlds, of course, is because I’m too lazy to develop them. I only have my eyes on the capital of the Ultimate Evil that has been developed to the extreme! How about it? Do you dare to bet using the capital of the Ultimate Evil? Of course, you also need to throw in your secretary!”

Irene, who was waiting respectfully by the side did not expect Jackson to suddenly point at her. She asked in shock, “Me?”

A wretched smile suddenly appeared on Jackson’s face and he nodded solemnly.

The evil lord looked at Jackson cautiously and asked with a frown, “What do you want my daughter for?”

Jackson tapped the table lightly with his finger. He said arrogantly, “For what? To enjoy, of course! You have to know that no matter how well the capital of Ultimate Evil is built, it is not worth five worlds. The only things that I like are the capital of Ultimate Evil and the vase by your side! Anyway, she has stayed by your side for so long and you even raised her. Why don’t you lose to me and let me take her back and teach her a good lesson!”

Irene frowned and scolded him angrily, “You b*stard! Although she knew that Jackson was very powerful, Irene did not show the slightest bit of fear when facing him. She did not care that he was the chief of the Lingluo Race. He had coveted her and humiliated her. She even wanted to fight to the death with him!

The Lord of Ultimate Evil suddenly shouted coldly, “Stop!”

He stopped Irene and leaned back on his chair. He said softly, “Don’t worry, we won’t lose anyway! If we win against Jackson, the scandal of him losing will immediately spread throughout the entire Black Hole world. As for the five rings, I will also give you two. How about it?”

Irene listened to his question, which was not a question. She sighed with surprise, “You, you really want to use me to gamble?”

The Lord of Ultimate Evil smiled and shook his head. He replied, “Eh, it’s not that serious. Anyway, we will definitely win. It’s just an excuse!”

Irene’s face instantly turned pale. Although she did not want to be used as a bargaining chip by the Lord of Ultimate Evil, she knew in her heart that she had no choice at all!

Although she was nominally the adopted daughter of the Lord of Ultimate Evil, in reality, she was no different from those slaves who were locked in the Arena of Life and Death. In fact, she was even worse than those slaves!

At least they still had the ability to resist, while Irene had nothing!

The Lord of Ultimate Evil did not even turn his head. After hearing that Irene did not refute, he raised his head and said to Jackson, “Deal, I’ll make the bet with you!”

Upon hearing that, Jackson slammed the table excitedly. He shouted, “Good! Since that’s the case, let’s not waste any more time. Quickly gather all the participants in the Arena of Life and Death! I only have one slave, let them challenge him! I can’t wait to take away your female secretary!”

The Lord of Ultimate Evil frowned fiercely and snorted, “Don’t be too confident! I promise that you will lose everything today, including your face!”

Then, the Lord of Ultimate Evil turned to the manager behind him and asked, “How many top contestants do we have?”

“Lord, there are currently three level 29 creatures, five level 28 creatures, and a total of seven top contestants in the arena!” reported the manager of the arena.

The Lord of Ultimate Evil took a deep breath and said, “Ask them to get ready. I must win today’s bet!”

“Yes!”

The manager nodded and turned to walk downstairs.

Jackson’s eyes were half-closed as if he was taking a rest. He completely ignored the Lord of Ultimate Evil’s arrangements on the other side. He only gave his subordinates a hand signal to follow them.

The Lingluo Race’s subordinates immediately accepted the order and carried the heavy and huge metal box downstairs.

The arena was originally filled with spectators because of Fire Asura’s match. However, after waiting for a long time, no one entered the arena. Just as they were waiting impatiently, a large door in the arena was suddenly lifted. However, it was not the Fire Asura who walked out, but a translucent Ghost Race Member.

A veteran audience member sighed in confusion, “Ghost Emperor! Wasn’t this the Ghost Emperor who had already advanced to level 29? He had won 80 matches in a row in the Arena of Life and Death. He is currently the contestant who is most likely to win 100 matches in a row to obtain freedom! It was said that the Arena of Life and Death no longer wanted to arrange a match for him. Why is he going up on stage today? Could it be that he is Fire Asura’s opponent today?”

“That’s impossible! No matter how powerful Fire Asura is, he only has the strength of a level 20 creature. How could they let Ghost Emperor be his opponent?”

“By the way, if Fire Asura’s opponent is really the Ghost Emperor, then the person I want to win will definitely not be Fire Asura! As a high-level race among the 10,000 races of the Black Hole, the Ghost Race has a unique racial skill, the Peeping Heart! No creature can be his opponent!”

“Who says so? No one below level 30 can stop Ghost Emperor’s winning streak!”

The rest of the audience were also discussing fervently.

Just as everyone was having an intense discussion, the entrance at the other end of the arena opened. What walked in was not Fire Asura but a huge box.

“What’s that?”

All the audience members sighed in puzzlement.

At the same time, the host’s voice resounded throughout the entire arena.

“Everyone! Today’s competition has changed. A few of our top contestants will be fighting against the slave sent by the chief of the Lingluo Race. The competition will be a round-robin battle. As long as one of our contestants can defeat the slave from the Lingluo Race, our side will win! Next, let’s invite the slave of the Lingluo Race to reveal himself!”

At the same time when the host introduced the duel, Jackson was sitting on the top floor watching the competition. He snapped his fingers lightly.

“Boom!”

The metal box in the arena shattered with a loud bang. A monster that was nearly three meters tall stood up from within. He had two legs of different thicknesses, three heads, and eight arms. His entire body, whether it was his torso or limbs, was covered in stitching marks. He was a monster that had been pieced together!

“What the hell, what is that thing?”

“It’s so disgusting. Is this even considered a life form?”

“Even if we win against this kind of stitched monster, it should not be considered a battle for the Ghost Emperor, right?”

The audience exclaimed one after another.

Meanwhile, the Ghost Emperor, who was in the arena, looked at the stitched monster in disdain. He raised his hand and pointed at the other party’s chest as he shouted softly, “Peeping Heart!”

As the Ghost Emperor shouted out his famous ultimate skill, all the audience held their breaths as they focused their attention on the stitched monster who was on the other side.

The stitched monster did not react at all, and it did not collapse as everyone expected. Instead, its gray and lifeless eyes suddenly lit up on one of the three heads. His eyes turned red, and it looked at the Ghost Emperor with a terrifying gaze.

“Ah!”

The Ghost Emperor screamed. His originally translucent body suddenly shattered and turned into starlight that filled the sky. It then scattered in the air.

Ghost Emperor, who had won 80 battles in a row in the arena and claimed to have no opponents below level 30 had died under the gaze of his opponent just like that.

“Hiss!”

The entire arena sucked in a breath of cold air. They stared at the stitched monster in shock.

At the same time, Vincent’s room door suddenly opened. Irene’s eyes were slightly red as she walked in front of him. She said stubbornly, “Take me away, I want to leave this place now!”
