Chapter 104 A big gamble
"Hey, sir, may I ask what the odds are for Lord Locke to win?"

As soon as Xiaobai said this, all the gods surrounding the gambling table looked at Xiaobai with strange eyes.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Deputy City Lord Evie of Yanfeng City once challenged Deputy City Lord Ryan.

It was also because of that battle that more people in Yanfeng City knew that the power gap between the upper gods was no smaller than the power gap between the upper gods and the middle gods.

The battle between a powerful Higher God and an ordinary Higher God can also be won by a crushing manner.

The strength of Deputy City Lord Evi seemed very powerful in the eyes of the middle-level gods, but in front of Deputy City Lord Ryan, Deputy City Lord Evi had no ability to fight back at all.

From then on, the people in Yanfeng City, who had witnessed the strength of Deputy City Lord Ryan, had blind confidence in his strength.

Some people even naively believed that with Lord Ryan's strength, he could defeat the Lord of Yanfeng City and rename Yanfeng City to Ryan City.

At this time, a middle-level god laughed loudly and pointed at Xiaobai and said, "Hahaha, where did this country bumpkin come from? He doesn't even know how powerful Lord Ryan is, and he still wants to buy what Lord Locke has won..."

At this point, the middle god suddenly blinked his eyes and said, "Lord Locke?"

Then, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of this middle-level god, and he glanced at the young man who was standing opposite Deputy City Lord Ryan with his arms folded above the fighting stage.

So far, all anyone knows is that someone is going to challenge Lord Ryan on the fighting stage.

And the ones who can be valued by Lord Ryan must be powerful upper gods like Lord Ryan.

And now, a lower-level god said out the name of that adult, and this middle-level god actually wanted to laugh at him?

Locke didn't know what happened under the gambling table, but Xiaobai's breath and the fear coming from the gambling table made Locke look down.

"Ok?"

Coincidentally, Locke's eyes met one of the gazes.

There was still a hint of mockery in this man's eyes, which inexplicably made Locke unhappy.

In particular, after Locke knew through the induction in his soul that this hint of teasing was directed at him, he became even more angry.

I had already left Yanfeng City, why did I turn back?
Isn’t it because he was robbed and killed by the Yanfeng City Guards?

I came back to seek revenge.

Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, the other party created Ryan to disgust me.

Now, even a mere middle-level god wants to make fun of me. If I don’t show my power, does he really think I’m a sick cat?

At that moment, a little fire of the soul ignited in Locke's pupils.

This ray of soul fire penetrated into the soul of this middle-level god through Locke's gaze.

Not surprisingly, this middle-level god had neither a soul defense artifact nor a soul defense barrier, so he could not stop Locke's soul fire at all.

The next moment, the emotions in the soul of this middle-level god were directly ignited by Locke...

“Mercy, mercy…”

Soon, everyone noticed that something was wrong with this middle-level god and moved away from him.

After a few breaths, the soul of this middle-level god was burned out, he lost his breath of life, and fell to the ground.

"This……"

"Soul attack?"

Seeing the situation of this middle-level god, everyone gasped.

Even the middle-level god in charge of Bauhinia Castle felt his scalp tingling instantly.

Soul attack is a very strange attack for most god-level strongmen who are not proficient in soul power.

Without a soul defense artifact, when encountering a soul attack, one can only pray that his soul is strong enough to resist the soul attack of others.

Even if a god has a certain understanding of soul power and can use soul power to construct a barrier of laws around his own soul that conforms to the mysteries of the laws he has comprehended, he will still be very wary of an enemy with powerful soul attacks.

The soul attack that can instantly kill a middle-level god means that the soul attack strength of this adult named "Locke" has definitely reached the level of a higher-level god.

And before fighting with Lord Ryan, he dared to waste his soul power to kill a middle-level god. Does this mean that Lord Locke doesn't even take Lord Ryan seriously?
The owner of the gambling house in Bauhinia Castle was startled. He felt that the gambling game he had set up seemed to be a trap for him.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper was startled and wanted to collect the odds on the gambling table.

If he remembered correctly, because he had great confidence in Lord Ryan, the shopkeeper never thought that Lord Ryan would lose.

However, since it was a gambling game, he couldn't possibly set up an option where Lord Ryan would win all the games. There was also an option where Lord Ryan would lose.

Because it is an impossible option, the shopkeeper set the odds a bit high.

Lord Ryan was defeated: 50 to 1!

However, the shopkeeper was unable to move the tablecloth covering the gambling table.

When he looked up, he saw the lower god who had just said "Lord Locke" staring at him with a pair of red eyes.

"Sir, I bet on Lord Locke to win. This is my bet."

After saying that, Xiaobai took out all the ink stones from the space ring that Locke had given him and placed them on the gambling table where the banker was in Bauhinia Castle.

A piece of inkstone is one cubic centimeter.

One cubic meter of inkstone neatly packed together is exactly one million inkstones. When two meters wide, five meters long, forty-nine meters high, a total of four hundred and ninety cubic meters of inkstone appeared on the gambling table of Bauhinia Castle, the entire battle arena was instantly detonated.

The people here are at least lower-level gods, whose spiritual consciousness can radiate a hundred meters away.

Just by using your spiritual sense to scan, you can know how many ink stones there are.

Many of them currently have only a few thousand or tens of thousands of ink stones in their pockets.

Perhaps, from now on, they will never have the opportunity to see so many ink stones again in their lives.

Four hundred and ninety million inkstones...

If I didn't have a trace of reason in my heart, I would have let these people know that this is Yanfeng City, and the owner of these inkstones is the upper god who is about to fight with Lord Ryan...

I'm afraid that in this fighting arena, a bloody battle will break out before Locke and Ryan even start fighting.

"Shopkeeper, this is 490 million inkstones. I'm betting all on Lord Locke to win. Please register it."

Because the vision was blocked by these ink stones, Xiaobai had to raise his voice to remind the dealer of Bauhinia Castle.

"Okay, okay, I'll register you right away."

At this moment, the shopkeeper of Bauhinia Castle had no choice but to issue a certificate to Xiaobai with a bitter face.

The shopkeeper had a hunch that opening this gambling table might be the stupidest decision he had ever made in his life!
Four hundred and ninety million...

If he loses, the odds will be five times, which is close to 2.5 billion ink stones. I am afraid that the only way to pay off these debts is to give all the profits of the Bauhinia Castle in Yanfeng City for the next 100,000 years to Locke.

The problem is that this shopkeeper can't escape yet!
To be able to serve as the shopkeeper in a city’s Bauhinia Castle, one must have some strong connections in the Bauhinia Legion.

If he dares to escape, he will ruin the reputation of Bauhinia Castle and tarnish the credibility of Bauhinia Lord God. Not only him, but all people related to him, whether they are from Bauhinia Castle or Bauhinia Legion, will not be able to escape.

After handing the bet proof to Xiaobai, the shopkeeper used his space ring to collect the 490 million ink stones.

For some unknown reason, the shopkeeper found that he was being looked at with many malicious eyes.

With a bitter smile, the shopkeeper decided that if he dared to leave Yanfeng City now, at least half of the people in the fighting arena would have to follow him.

Don’t underestimate the attraction of inkstone to the gods!
Fortunately, as the shopkeeper of Bauhinia Castle, he does not need to leave the city. Every hundred years, he only needs to hand over the hundred-year profit of Bauhinia Castle to the members of the Main God Legion who escort the goods.

I hope Lord Ryan can defeat this Lord named Locke!
In this way, I, who have generated 490 million ink stones for Bauhinia Castle, can get more rewards.

Otherwise, I don’t know what kind of punishment I will have to bear for the 2.45 billion ink stones I owe in the name of Bauhinia Castle.

I'm afraid death is the lightest thing.

……

The two middle-level gods on the fighting stage didn't notice it at first, but when more and more people filled up the viewing platform of the fighting stage, they finally discovered something was wrong.

After the two middle-level gods exchanged moves, they kept a safe distance and looked up in the direction of the spectators.

"That's Deputy City Lord Ryan?"

"Who is that person opposite the deputy city lord?"

Anyone who can stand beside Deputy City Lord Ryan must be a powerful person at the upper god level.

With just one glance, the two middle-level gods knew that if they did not decide the winner, they would probably arouse public anger.

Because, so many lower-level gods and middle-level gods came to the fighting arena not to watch the fight between the two of them.

Thinking of this, the two middle-level gods did not dare to waste any more time and jumped directly off the fighting stage.

"Humph!"

Ryan's figure flashed and he instantly appeared on the fighting stage, looking up at Locke.

"Little guy, it's not too late for you to admit defeat now."

"I will imprison you for at most ten thousand years."

"But if you step onto the fighting stage, I won't be so easy to talk to!"

"Haha, before you say that, Deputy City Lord Ryan should think about yourself!"

A large amount of water elements condensed on the fighting stage.

Locke's figure disappeared from the spot in an instant and emerged from the water element in an instant.

The higher gods are already the highest level of gods.

Even if one has achieved great perfection, he is still a higher god.

In this age when the secret of the profound fusion of laws has not yet been popularized, the most intuitive way to judge a god's strength is the fluctuating aura of divine power.

"Insanity!"

Hearing Locke's words, Ryan became furious and his divine power suddenly burst out.

"boom!"
