novelWas Stirring up Trouble
| ← Ch.159 | Ch.161 → |
Audrey, who was an alchemist, was stirring up trouble.
Because of her words, the value of everything on the table had doubled. For a moment, the onlookers held their breaths and did not dare to say anything, afraid of disturbing their judgment.
Ross placed her hand on her chest and silently prayed for Audrey.
"You have to place your bets, but you can't change them afterward." Klein greeted her like a waiter, placing the items that everyone had chosen in front of everyone.
Audrey, on the other hand, looked as though she had no foundation at all. She directly chose the thinnest one.
When Ross saw the monster she had chosen, her heart turned cold.
Oh my god, in a competition like this, the weaker the Demon Beast, the shorter its explosive power would be. So it might not even have any explosive points during the entire process.
Basically, only the person who made the slowest choice would want it. What was Audrey's situation? Even a normal person would not have chosen this Demon Beast.
It seemed like it was really a close call.
When the onlookers saw this choice, they laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha, she actually chose the weakest one. It seems like she's giving money to someone else."
"Who knows? Likely, miss doesn't know the rules of the game at all. That's why she's throwing caution to the wind."
"I'd like to see who will win this bet. After all, these things are so valuable. Even if they fall into the hands of an ordinary person, they'll definitely be able to live out the rest of their lives."
Audrey only raised her finger and pointed at the little fellow.
"Can I take a look at it?"
Klein readily agreed, "Of course you can, but I suggest that you be careful. After all, the monster you chose is too thin and weak. I'm afraid that you'll injure it if you're not careful."
Because of this sentence, the people around them laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at? The results aren't out yet. No one knows who will win, " Ross said stubbornly.
A senior beside her patted her shoulder, "Don't hold any hope. Look at that guy. He's small and thin. Even if he runs, he might be knocked away by someone. I don't know if he's blind to have a candidate for such a thing."
"You!" Ross gritted her teeth and wanted to retort, but she could not say anything in the end.
Audrey looked at the little fellow in her palm and narrowed her eyes.
The bracelet began to tremble faintly. The beast seemed to have sensed this abnormally powerful aura. It was so frightened that it trembled for a moment. However, the feeling it gave off was clearly different from before.
"Do your best. I believe in you."
She placed the little guy on the table.
"Since everything is ready, let's begin."
Klein raised her hand and waved the folding fan in her hand. Then, after the three seconds countdown, the Demon Beast on the table quickly rushed out.
Everyone held their breaths and looked at everything in front of them.
But soon, what happened surprised them.
Because the red Demon Beast that they looked down on the most had already activated its explosive point from the very beginning, from the first half of the run, it had already left the other Demon Beasts far behind.
And they did not know what exactly was going on. This kind of explosive force could last for an unusually long time. Then, after a moment, it actually left the others behind by a whole circle.
"Oh my god, what's going on? Why did this Demon Beast suddenly activate its explosive point?"
"I don't understand either. It clearly looked like it couldn't muster up any energy just now. So why did it suddenly..."
"Could Audrey have done something to it?"
As soon as he said that, Ross interrupted her with a cold expression.
"If you're not doing well, then don't look at others with such dirty thoughts. You know clearly what Audrey did just now. All she did was say a few words of encouragement. Do you think that she did something to you?"
As soon as she said that, the others did not know how to refute her. After all, it was the truth.
Soon, the little red monster had already crossed the line.
The folding fan in Klein's hand could not move no matter what. He looked at Audrey hesitantly. He could not figure out what kind of magic Audrey had. She was actually able to encourage this very thin Demon Beast to the point of being number one.
Hobart and the others had ugly expressions on their faces.
Especially Cole, who directly raised his hand and slammed it on the table in front of him.
"What did you do just now? We invited you here out of kindness, not for you to use such methods to win!"
Audrey spread her hands."You should have seen what I did just now. I was encouraging you. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Moreover, this matter was agreed upon by this young master. Everyone has seen it. In front of so many people, even if I wanted to do something, I probably wouldn't be able to do it."
Audrey arched her brows and smiled. She looked harmless as she defended herself.
"You!" Cole gritted his teeth. He had never expected the woman in front of him to be such a sharp-tongued person.
