Chapter 2124

~7 min read 1,301 words

To bet or not to bet!? This kid is currently ranked outside six hundred thousand, or is it because he's on the verge of death and only this many left!?

If I win the bet, as long as I get into the top ten thousand, the odds are thirty times! My 160 points can turn into nearly five thousand points! If I lose...

If he loses the bet, he'll have nothing! But given the current situation, he seems to have no choice!

Qing Kai thought it through clearly: whether Lin An emerges ranked in the top ten thousand or top one thousand, any reward on him will be snatched by Black Flame, and the share promised to him, he doesn't even want to think about!

Therefore, he wants to survive the next mission, and even for the future, the only way is to rely on gambling to turn things around!

I can't possibly follow Black Flame..! First, I'm not his direct lineage; second, I still have a promotion mission. If I follow him, I'll likely become cannon fodder to scout the path, and by then I won't even know how I died.

Now the alliance is ruined; I can only rely on myself to complete the mission. So I need at least five hundred points, no, better yet one thousand points, to have confidence to get through the crisis!

One thousand points!

Besides winning through betting, Qing Kai really doesn't know any other way to obtain it.

As for betting on Lin An, it's simply because he always feels Lin An isn't that simple.

Of course, he also because he really can't tell among all the current participants which one could win the bet; those that look promising have low odds, and even if he won, it wouldn't be enough.

Those with high odds, like Lin An who are also ranked low, he simply has no confidence!

After thinking it over, Qing Kai helplessly discovered he actually had 'confidence' in Lin An.

This damned monkey, though disgusting, is plenty cunning! In strength, he's even suspected to be War Star advanced or even peak.

With the advantage of being Fourth Rank, it's not impossible to get into the top ten thousand. Plus another monkey looks decent; he estimates that as long as Lin An doesn't die, he basically has an 80% chance to surge upward.

The only problem is...

This kid inexplicably shielded his own information; even if I directly bet on the alliance team it's the same. But looking at the points changes, this kid seems to be hiding no matter how you look at it.

If he's afraid to die and never comes out, then I...

He slowly opened his eyes; Qing Kai's eyes were bloodshot, he clenched his fists tightly. He never imagined he would one day place his hope on a Fourth Rank.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and still opened the betting panel.

I bet!

Lin An! I'm betting you're not that useless! If I win this time, our grudges will be cancelled!

Anyway, Lin An will surely die if he comes out, so it's nothing to do with him anymore.

After making up his mind, Qing Kai no longer hesitated, directly betting 50 points on the Creators Alliance. Those 50 points, if won, would barely be enough for what he needs. Even if Lin An dies midway, he still has two chances to turn things around. Of course, Qing Kai still hopes it's best not to bet again.

After all, if Lin An dies, he has even less confidence in others.

However, just as Qing Kai watched his points being deducted with heartache, the next second two mechanical stellar alert tones suddenly sounded.

Beep, selection successful, current selection: Creators Alliance individual score to enter top 10000. Odds 1:30

Beep, the ranking of the Creators Alliance team you selected has changed, current ranking dropped by 100000+

He suddenly froze.

Qing Kai's legs went weak, he hurriedly looked at the Creators team info.

Just as he placed his bet, the Creators Alliance dispatched teams were instantly eliminated four of them! And in the team where Ka Lian was, the Fifth Rank members died leaving only Ka Lian alone!

The world spun; for a moment, Qing Kai felt heaven was playing a huge joke on him.

Damn!!!

Save me!!

I am Ka Lian, descendant of the Red Armor! No matter whose people you are! Please help me! I know you're there!

Whoosh-boom!!!

A piercing whistle rang, kicking up three long earth dragons.

On the barren battlefield ground, two low-flying figures clung tightly to the leading red light. Even though their speed exploded to the limit, Ka Lian, pursued by two War Star peak experts, was filled with despair and could only keep calling for help.

Her battle armor damaged, the once proud Ka Lian like blazing fire now resembled a soaked rat, her body covered with wounds like baby mouths.

Spiritual energy exhausted, rules consumption to the limit.

Since being mysteriously pursued, she has been fleeing all the way to now.

If it weren't for Black Armor dying first, and the Fifth Rank she brought being loyal enough, she would have already died in the first wave of the siege.

However, the cost of fleeing is too painful; not only did all her subordinate War Stars self-destruct and die a minute ago, even her biggest trump card brought this time was exhausted in the three-team encirclement.

You should know, that was her confidence to charge into the top ten thousand, even top thousand, her trump card!

Thus fallen to this point, Ka Lian no longer has the proud, high-spirited look of someone aiming for the front; there is only panic, a heart desperate to the extreme.

She can't hold on, really can't hold on. If she stops, with her current condition, any War Star level could kill her!

If it weren't for her faintly sensing ahead a possible 'friendly' aura, she would even want to give up resistance and just wait to die.

At the same time, the Mo Ling team hiding behind the slope, everyone stared in astonishment at the distant chase.

Holding a monster head like a deer's, Zhang Tie blinked his eyes, somewhat uncertainly looking toward the distant red light:

"Gao Tian, your eyesight is good, your hearing is good."

"Just now making a fuss, is that little lady?"

Xiong Hanzi opened his mouth, only feeling he was hallucinating. What a joke, they'd long since split from Ka Lian; if they could run into her like this, it'd be truly seeing a ghost.

However, before Gao Tian could subconsciously check, the little Mo Ling floating in midair simply tapped his little head:

"It's that stupid woman."

"I remember her scent; looking at her situation now, she should be about to die."

His tone was extremely calm, as if merely seeing a dying stray dog by the roadside. After speaking, the little Mo Ling waved his hand, indicating everyone need not pay attention.

She has always disliked that so-called highness; if Lin An hadn't stopped her, the first time they met she would have twisted Ka Lian's head off to use as a doll.

"Hehe, since Mo Ling said that, then I, Old Zhang, won't bother either."

"Too bad killing allies gives no points, otherwise snagging a head wouldn't be bad. I also don't know why she's so unlucky; it looks like the War Stars hunting her are two teams."

He shook his head, Xiong Hanzi also didn't care that Mo Ling didn't want to save anyone.

In his eyes, Ka Lian was just a tool; they didn't say they had any relation with the Creator's side, and not taking revenge was already good.

The only trouble was, Ka Lian flew over toward them.
