Chapter 99: Convince Me
“What I mean was, I’ve worked my *ss off to get only this much. I’m not satisfied!” Newcomer Liu pulled out the Blood-devouring Demon Ax from the ground. Just as he wiped the ax with the corner of his clothes, he remembered Wang Wen’s spiritual power and quickly put down the ax. He clenched his teeth and twisted his neck to show that he was furious at the moment.
Wang Wen nodded. “It’s okay. Since you refuse to accept it, I have a way to make everyone satisfied.”
“What way?” the rest asked in unison.
It was not only Newcomer Liu who was curious.
Even Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo were curious.
In their opinion, there was no solution to that incident.
Mr. Liu was the one who stated that he was leaving the tower. It was normal for the Captain not to give him anything. There was no need for someone who had given up.
It was time for him to leave.
They would have still set up the traps after the man left the tower.
It was a pity that he did not leave.
He even wanted a piece of the pie.
It was unpleasant to give away something that one did not deserve.
They understood the Captain’s mood.
The problem was that Mr. Liu had been very humble in the beginning.
He almost threw his face on the ground and let everyone trample on it.
They even fought monsters together.
That made the problem difficult to solve.
According to the rules, those who contributed should be paid, right? The Captain would be unhappy if Mr. Liu were not happy.
There was absolutely no way to solve that problem.
However, the Captain stated that there was a solution.
The two of them were giddy with excitement.
Was there still a way to solve that problem?
Everyone looked at Wang Wen eagerly.
Wang Wen did not beat around the bush. He said to Newcomer Liu, “If you want 100 million, no problem. I can give it to you.”
Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo looked at each other and thought, ‘That’s it?’
Newcomer Liu’s expression softened. He snorted and said, “You’re smart. If you make a scene, it won’t look good for everyone.”
“Don’t be anxious.” Wang Wen raised his finger. “But you have to catch one of my moves. That’s fair, right?”
Ren Ruoruo’s eyes instantly lit up.
Her eyes glowed with excitement.
She enjoyed watching exciting things.
“One move? Ha!”Newcomer Liu was just about to snort when he recalled the opponent’s spiritual power that instantly killed 3,000 giant cockroaches. He shut his mouth and said, “Can I dodge?”
Wang Wen smiled and looked at him.
Zhu Xingguo replied sullenly on behalf of the team leader, “No dodging. You have to take it head-on.”
Newcomer Liu immediately said shamelessly, “Then aren’t you being too much of a bully? Why don’t we switch it around? If you can take one of my attacks head-on, I won’t take that 100 million.”
Wang Wen thought for a moment and nodded. “That’s fine too.”
Newcomer Liu almost suspected that his ears were broken. He asked, doubtful, “Really? Any attack?”
Wang Wen thought for a moment and said, “Nothing more damaging than a nuclear bomb.”
At that time, Newcomer Liu thought his brain was damaged. “You mean that, besides a nuclear bomb, I can do anything else?”
“You can try that.” Wang Wen said, “But you have to raise the stakes because I will lose 100 million when you make your move, but I win nothing when I make mine.”
“What losses?” Newcomer Liu stuck his neck out and shouted, “I deserved that 100 million!”
Wang Wen smiled. “If you’re so shameless, then there’s no point in talking. I can also say that you didn’t leave the tower when you said you would, and you continued fighting the monsters. That caused me to be worried about complications, and I ended the level early and lost 1 billion points.”
Zhu Xingguo grunted in a muffled voice. “What’s it going to be? Who’s doing what? We have limited time here. The drone will force us to the next level.”
Newcomer Liu was holding back.
He was about to tell Wang Wen to make his move.
He felt a little guilty when he saw Wang Wen’s calm and composed demeanor.
Then he remembered how he still needed to raise the stakes. He had the impression that he was in too deep.
He changed his tone and said, “I’ll make the move! But you said you don’t want a nuclear-bomb-level attack, so I should get to demand something too.”
Zhu Xingguo could not stand the man anymore. He shook his head and sighed quietly. “What a waste of time!”
Wang Wen was still calm and collected. He reached out his hand and gestured for the other man to continue speaking.
Newcomer Liu noticed Zhu Xingguo, who was quietly shaking his head.
He knew that he had lost his dignity.
That incident would not bring back his respect as an expert climber.
He said, “You can’t use your spiritual power.”
When those words came out, even Ren Ruoruo could not help but shake her head.
Newcomer Liu’s face was flushed. He shouted, “What do you think? Do you still want to compete? ”
Wang Wen looked at the other party’s loss of composure. There was a hint of pity in his eyes. He said indifferently, “I don’t need to use that. Very well. We’ll start when you’re ready.”
Newcomer Liu’s expression was ferocious.
He held the handle of the two-handed ax. His expression changed several times. In the end, he shouted, “Come! I’m ready! ”
Wang Wen walked slowly in front of him, raising a cloud of yellow mist with his hand.
Newcomer Liu’s expression changed drastically!
He took three steps backward!
He shouted in panic, “You’re using poison? I thought I was attacking!”
Wang Wen stood on the spot and looked at him helplessly.
Behind him, Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo were ridiculing him loudly without any restraint.
“What a scoundrel.”
“That’s right. I’ve never seen such a scoundrel. ”
“What does a poison master use if he doesn’t use poison?”
“Let him win then. What competition? He’s the most shameless person in the world.”
“What did he say his surname was? He should change his surname to Scoundrel.”
Newcomer Liu’s face paled as he listened to them.
He was extremely embarrassed.
For the sake of 100 million points, he had no choice but to fight to the end.
He could not care less about his dignity and said again, “If you’re brave enough, don’t use poison! If you can still beat me then, I have nothing to say!”
When Zhu Xingguo realized he was no longer interested in watching, he walked into the next level’s entrance. He sat down and closed his eyes to sleep.
Ren Ruoruo said to Wang Wen, “Captain, let’s go. There’s no point in arguing with a scoundrel. ”
Wang Wen nodded.
The two of them walked to the next level together.
Newcomer Liu hurriedly ran a few steps to block them. He shouted, “That’s the last time! I won’t go back on my word!”
Wang Wen looked up at him. “Really?”
Newcomer Liu nodded solemnly. “Absolutely!”
“Okay.”
Wang Wen retrieved the Body Immobilizing Bead from the drone and shone it on his body.
Then, he picked up the Bloodthirsty Demon Ax and gestured with it around his neck. He realized it was difficult to operate while standing, so he asked Zhu Xingguo to help him.
Zhu Xingguo opened his eyes and saw that scene. His eyes immediately lit up, and he ran over excitedly to knock him down on the ground.
His actions were too impactful, so the light from the Body Immobilizing Bead was slightly averted. Newcomer Liu was immediately scared out of his wit, and he shouted in a heart-wrenching manner, “I admit defeat! I admit defeat! I admit defeat! I admit defeat!”
Zhu Xingguo rubbed his hands together, stood up, and walked away; his face was regretful.
Ren Ruoruo’s expression was complicated. She said, “That’s it?”
Wang Wen put away the Body Immobilizing Bead and threw back the Blood-devouring Demon Ax. He looked at Newcomer Liu sitting on the ground in a daze.
He sighed. “Just now, my Body Immobilizing Bead loosened a little, giving you a chance to admit defeat. It was also my mistake. Let’s consider that a draw. You have no chance of winning the 100 million points. If you are willing, I can give you 10 million points. After all, you have contributed to the level.”
Newcomer Liu raised his head.
He gave Wang Wen a deep look.
The expression on his face changed several times.
Finally, he let out a long breath, pursed his lips, and smiled in relief. “Mister, I am impressed.”
