Chapter 39
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The intertwining of fists and heads was like the sound of cathedral bells spreading throughout the audience.
Titus,Lana, Suleiman, the host, and everyone in the audience…
They all subconsciously held their breaths as they watched this scene, anticipating the birth of the true king of the arena.
After the dragon’s head was smashed into a bloody mess, Lin Lei stood up in the middle of the steaming arena, his blood-red eyes sweeping over the entire arena.
‘I won?’
An intense feeling of weakness, as well as a sense of surrealism, swept through Lin Lei’s entire body.
The power from awakening the bloodline in his body declined, and his face was as pale as flour.
‘Daisy, I’ve avenged you…’
Lin Lei raised his right hand, making a gesture as if he were holding a torch. In Talantum, this was a gesture of victory.
“Gods above! Bull Butcher has won this great victory! He stopped the winning streak of the people of Halhaza!
“May the gods bless Talantum!”
Cheers filled the air, and the audience in the stands did not even know what they were shouting about.
They were venting and roaring. Even Titus stood up and cheered.
The Talantum people needed a victory, and Lin Lei had given it to them.
Suleiman looked at the fanatical scene and did not say anything. When the dragon won previously, he was not stingy with his praise.
The winner had the right to receive cheers.
He looked at Lin Lei, a hint of desire in the depths of his eyes.
“Even if you believe in the Ancestral God, I’ll still get you…”
…
Although Lin Lei scoffed at the savagery of this world, he still had to admit that the medical treatment of this world was extremely powerful.
Lin Lei felt that if he were on Earth, he would not be able to walk for a few months. However, after being treated by the priests here, Lin Lei only needed two days to recover.
It was just that there were many scars on his body.
In the temple, he saw the masked man take off his mask for the first time.
“Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Ulyanus, a priest under Kallius.”
This was the first time Lin Lei had seen Ulyanus so polite. For a moment, he was not quite used to it.
However, he quickly adjusted himself.
“Let’s start over. My name is Lin Lei.”
Ulyanus laughed and said, “I watched your fight. You conquered that dragon with a great victory. How do you feel now?”
“I’m recovering very well,” Lin Lei said as he touched his chest. “Such medical skills are amazing.”
Ulyanus’ smile was gentle. “This is the power of divine arts. How about it? Are you interested in coming out to serve Lord Kallius?
“If you agree, I can redeem you.”
“Redeem?” Lin Lei sensed something and asked, “I can be redeemed now? Tullius will let me go?”
“Yes.”
Ulyanus gave an accurate answer.
“It’s not just you, but a group of people. In the gladiators’ fight with Halhaza, many gladiators have already reached a hundred rounds.
“In order to maximize benefits, some slave owners, including me, have secretly met each other and decided to hold an auction. We’ll turn you into ordinary slaves, so you’ll no longer have to fight.”
“Oh?” Lin Lei was very interested. He did not expect to win all 100 matches, and this result was not bad.
At least it was better than staying in the prison of the arena.
His chances of escaping would be much higher now.
Daisy’s face flashed through his mind, and he asked, “Will Daisy also appear at this auction?”
Ulyanus was stunned for a moment before he said in realization, “Oh, Windtalker. Naturally, she’ll be on this list.
“She’s in a very bad state right now and is on the verge of death. Her master is also rather stingy and won’t pay the temple’s treatment fee, unlike Tullius.
“Hence, her auction price won’t be too high, but I’m afraid your private money won’t be enough to buy her.”
“How much do I need?” Lin Lei asked without hesitation.
“A gladiator who has won more than 90 battles is worth more than 400,000 gold coins. However, due to her near-death state and unknown side effects, she can be bought for 20,000 gold coins with some manipulation.
“The money you won from gambling is only about 10,000 gold coins. It’s not enough to pay for her even if you empty it out.”
“Then I’ll borrow some money from you. I’m sure you have it,” Lin Lei said firmly.
“I believe you have a way to squeeze me dry.”
Ulyanus showed a troubled expression and said, “That’s a difference of 10,000 gold coins. Do you think we’re buying bread in the city?
“Do you know how much 10,000 gold coins is?
“With 400,000 silver coins, you can enter the Council of Elders and become a noble in Talantum, yet you want 10,000 gold coins?!
“The most valuable thing about you is your *ss. It’s another story if you can’t even earn that much money after being f*cked!”
Lin Lei’s expression remained unchanged as he said, “Then I’ll go look for Suleiman. I believe he’ll give me enough compensation.
“When I really seek refuge with the people of Halhaza, the faces of the people of Talantum will definitely be very amusing!”
“You…!” Ulyanus’ face turned green, and then he said, “You can’t really think that you can do whatever you want, right?
“You’re just a slave. You need to know your place!”
Lin Lei’s canine teeth began to grow.
“But I’m a slave with power. I never wanted to come to this. If I really want to escape, I don’t think you’ll refuse to pay the price!
“The people of Halhaza are outside the city!
“I’ll definitely return this money after I borrow it!”
At this moment, a round of applause was heard, and Tullius walked in wearing wooden sandals.
Behind him, a group of armored soldiers aimed their crossbows at Lin Lei, their arrows glimmering with magical runes.
“Very good, you sure have a firm stance! You’re so tough even when borrowing money. You’re made for big things.
“Ulyanus can’t satisfy you, but I can. I have a big deal that I want to work with you on. If you can help me, I can give you more than 10,000 gold coins!
Lin Lei felt a strong threat, and the steel crossbows made his hair stand on end.
He retracted his attacking posture and said to Tullius, “”I’ll take this big deal!”
“Very good!”
With a look of appreciation on his face, Tullius clapped his hands and said to the soldiers behind him, “All of you can leave.”
“But, Your Excellency…!”
“Get out!” Tullius shouted, and the soldiers behind him retreated out of the door with unwilling expressions.
Ulyanus also tactfully walked out.
“Now, there are no outsiders here. I can promise to help you redeem that female gladiator.
“But you have to help me deal with someone. At the auction the day after tomorrow, there will only be one person who’ll be willing and able to redeem you.
“I want you to betray her at the critical moment. That way, our deal will be complete.”
“Her? It’s a woman?” Lin Lei’s heart jumped.
The intertwining of fists and heads was like the sound of cathedral bells spreading throughout the audience.
