Chapter 285: Gambler of Fate
[Unrated]
The dusk was all around, and the ambiguous moonlight climbed to the edge of the imperial capital. This cathedral city was shrouded in the moonlight. As the long night progressed, the moonlight became brighter and brighter, and every glass prism on the dome of the Third Cathedral was covered with white frost.
Tonight was destined to be an unforgettable night for the Holy See, and even for the citizens of the entire Farol.
Even many years later, when they and their descendants mentioned tonight, everything seemed to be vivid.
They would remember the frosty moonlight, the light reflected from every piece of glass in the church, the sycamore leaves falling in the wind on the church square, and the four bright red and brand new characters in the center of the square -
[Unrated]
The cursed son Anzu defeated Her Majesty Cersei, the saint, and won the first place. This was already an unimaginable and unbelievable miracle, but it was slightly dimmer than [Unrated].
No rating, this is a rating in itself.
Whether it was the old men in the imperial capital who were over a hundred years old and had witnessed countless legendary journeys, or the knowledgeable local nobles, or even the priests and ministers in the seven major churches, they had never seen a star give such an evaluation.
How could it be impossible to rank?
The system built by the church with taxpayers' money was used for grading; but when it came to Ansu, it was impossible to rank. What did he do in the world of Naraku?
It couldn't be that this kid hacked the examination system, right?
The priests all had this absurd idea in their minds, and then shook their heads again, how could it be possible.
They continued to look down,
Putting aside the most eye-catching four words "unable to rank", Ansu's other paper data was also very luxurious, so luxurious that it made people feel outrageous.
First of all, the score was 65 points, only 5 points away from the full score, the highest score of all saints, exceeding the 60 points of Her Majesty the Princess.
If that were the case, it would be fine. The most important thing was that Ansu had the highest total score in the whole field, but he had indeed passed the least worlds, only three!
Three worlds, 65 points, each world scored nearly 22 points.
Ordinary people cannot fully understand the outrageousness of this score. Only the priests who served as examiners can clearly understand the value of it.
Because the full score of the three worlds is only 30 points. Ansu can get such a high score, which means that he has exceeded the additional score of 35 points, and there is only one possibility to get these points.
That is the out-of-control blue witch, the projection of the last saint of the Church of Life. The most evil witch in the world was personally defeated by Ansu, a teenager who is less than 5th level.
Thinking of this, many glorious priests have complicated eyes. Even if their current positions and ranks are higher than Ansu, they are definitely not the opponent of that witch. I am afraid that just being looked at by her "blue devil's eyes" will turn into nutrients for sacrifice.
Defeating the most evil devil - even if it is just an out-of-control projection, it is a great achievement that can be recorded in the book. Ansu has this resume at the age of sixteen, and his future career will be extremely smooth.
While being amazed by Ansu's achievements, the priests of the Glorious Church, big and small, also fell into annoyance and remorse, especially the imperial saints of the same period as Ansu, who all regretted and were very upset.
If they had known that Ansu was like this, they should not have looked at him with prejudice, and should have faced Ansu squarely. Obviously, everyone is a glorious and upright saint, and they should help each other. If they had known this earlier-
They should have all-in for Ansu to win!
What are the odds between Ansu and the princess tonight?
One to ten, one to twenty?
All the upright Glorious saints showed despair. They thought this was a guaranteed win. This was not a doctoral study, but financial management. They had put all their salaries and assets on the princess for financial investment for several years, and now all of them have gone down the drain.
Is this a fake match?
They put aside their prejudices and looked at Ansu from a positive perspective, and felt that this kid was completely capable of doing such a thing.
Some saints even began to suspect that this little born from the border had colluded with Cersei to take the test and earn compensation, and they would split the money 30% and 70% after the game. If they were a little more crazy, there were seven worlds in the test, and Her Majesty the Princess lost 0:7 at home in the Imperial City.
Tell me how to explain this.
If Her Majesty the Princess had a good reputation and something really happened in the Naraku world, the Church would not have taken such a risk, and they would have really believed it.
They now deeply realized that losing everything is also a kind of dawn.
"Dawn! Can the things of the glorious saints be called losing everything?" The dawn saints muttered, and then some words that made people half-understand, such as "losing everything is a special form of dawn", "the dawn saint also did it"
In any case, tonight is destined to be a bloody night.
After the rankings are announced, an unprecedented and grand flying magic show will be lined up for performance; looking at the chaotic appearance of the surrounding citizens and even saints crying, groaning, and slamming their heads on the ground, the Chaos Witch undercovers lurking in the imperial capital all showed admiration and admiration.
Being able to witness such a good show with your own eyes is worth the ticket price.
"So that's it! This is the chaos plan of Brother Chaos Stairs!"
"Fun! Fun!"
Chaos Elevator Brother - now perhaps should be called Chaos Elevator Sister, has been completely convinced by the Staircase Boss's calculations. The world doesn't know it, but according to the information they have learned, Princess Cersei has actually been taken away by the Chaos Saint Elf. Abandoned.
The Staircase Boss and Elf Mian join forces to make a plan.
Just to defraud these stupid Falore citizens, it will not only hit the economy, but also take away their lives, and they can also watch an aerial show with hundreds of people, such an evil and chaotic boss.
After this battle, the idiot saints of the Glorious Holy See will suffer a severe blow and will be unable to recover.
By then, the great success of the Tantric undercover business will be just around the corner.
They are loyal to Chaos and will live up to the great mission assigned by the organization above.
Thinking of this, Chaos Elevator laughed heartily.
"The esoteric cultists also bet all their wealth to the princess, including you." The chaotic escalator in the front row turned around and said expressionlessly, using magic to transmit the message, "Have you forgotten?"
Chaos Elevator's smile froze.
"I am studying for a Ph.D. and being a chaos scholar. Can I call it gambling?"
Chaos Elevator said with a strong voice, followed by a series of half-understandable words, something like 'majoring in chaos probability and dice chaos research'.
"You also took out a loan to gamble." Chaos Escalator's face was expressionless.
"That's my student loan." Chaotic Elevator said calmly.
Chaos Escalator's expression was almost dead, "You embezzled all the three-year funds distributed by the organization to pay for your Ph.D. studies!"
"How about we also perform trapeze magic." Chaos Elevator thought for a while, and finally showed a relieved smile, "Let's just treat it as a graduation exam."
"When His Majesty the Bishop arrives, you can fly again."
Chaos Escalator turned back, and she looked at the night in Farore. The frost-like moonlight covered the glass dome of the church, illuminating everything. But this light was only an illusion after all. In the long night that was coming, , all the glory is just a bubble, only the chaotic darkness is eternal.
In the scale of the starry sky and even the universe, entropy increase is the ladder of all destiny, chaos is the final form of all things, and chaos is the ultimate stability.
And only by returning to eternal chaos and stepping onto the last step of destiny can we get out of the endless cycle of Naraku.
They have been waiting for the promised step for too long.
"Then you're dead anyway." Chaos Elevator said with a playful smile, "Give me your quota, and I'll take out a small student loan to get my money back."
"."
Chaos Escalator was silent for a while, then she moved her cheek,
"I have dawned too."
All in all, Ansu struck an equal blow against both Esoteric believers and Orthodox believers. Looking at the chaotic scene of chaos and mourning all around, Ansu showed an innocent smile like a child. Popularizing and spreading flying magic is an obligation as a missionary. .
When this exam started, no one was optimistic about Ansu, so his odds were staggeringly high.
No one believed Anzu could win.
After all, this is a matter of course. His rank is far inferior to that of the Imperial Princess, and he is just a cursed child who is disgusted by Guanghui. How can he win? Even the saints who know Anzu well cannot use their own Gambling your wealth and life.
Even the Dharma God Merlin was betting on the victory of the princess.
Whether gambling is about studying for a Ph.D., or losing money is about the dawn of time, no matter how the believers on both sides try to cover it up, they have all lost their pants. And Ansu is estimated to be the only winner of this exam. He took advantage of one of Chenxing's gold mines. According to the current odds, he can take away all the student aid funds at the bottom.
Only he can win.
But Ansu is not short of money, he simply enjoys the pleasure of squeezing people.
A pleasant smile appeared on Ansu's lips. At this moment, Luojia behind him gently pulled the corner of his clothes.
He turned around, and the blush on the side of the little saint's face had not completely faded away. She bit her lip gently, and her golden eyes moved slightly, as if she had made up her mind. She raised her head and looked at Ansu's eyes,
"I won."
Luo Jia held her head high and said proudly.
"What did you win?" Ansu was a little confused.
Luo Jia paused. She took out a small notebook from her bag. After hesitating for a while, she handed it to Ansu, "I can pay you back."
Ansu took it and took a look and found that it was a pure white accounting book with a kitten drawn on the cover. He opened it and looked at the contents. There were many pages in the book, but only two pages had written content. Each page was Related to Anzu.
'January.'
'On January 21st, I escaped from the monastery with Ansu. I stayed out at night for the first time and secretly went to the world of Naraku. I violated the commandments for the first time. The border was in chaos. I said bad words for the first time. After I came back, I owed He was fined two hundred gold'
‘On January 30, it cost 20 gold to buy a cake. Ansu brought me several copies from the Magic Guild. This money must also be recorded.’
Ansu still vaguely remembered these things. He and Liszt Arthur participated in the "Three Magical Journeys to the Countryside" activity. After eating cakes in the living room, he packed up the remaining cakes for the little saint and brought them back.
finally
'On July 2, I met Ansu in the exam registration hall. The exam registration fee totaled two thousand gold coins, and he paid for it for me.'
July 2 was just a few days ago.
‘In total, I owe Ansu Morningstar 2,200 gold and three blueberry cakes. ’
He didn't expect that Luojia would actually record these things in a small book in detail, and write every stroke neatly. To be fair, the thousands of gold coins in Ansu's family were just a sprinkling of water, and he himself I have almost forgotten all of it, and some of the accounts were even obtained through deception and abduction by him. Obviously it was okay not to pay it back, but Luo Jia wrote it down seriously.
I remember Ansu clearly.
If it were the girls Ansu met in his previous life, they would probably take it for granted that boys spend money on girls. Not to mention keeping debts, half of the damage could be dealt with by Chaos Trial.
"Why did you give me this?" Ansu tilted his head and said funny, "Have you saved enough money?"
The priests of the Glory Holy See make money quickly, and they all rely on the funds from the progress of the believers. They can't support themselves with just that little salary.
This is also the unspoken rule that everyone acquiesces to.
According to Luo Jia's stubborn character, she would definitely not accept any advancement funds. Even the congratulations and gifts from the bishops were turned away by Luo Jia. Because of this, she was ostracized and placed under house arrest in a monastery.
Even if it is the salary of the Glory Saint, she has only been working for one year. In addition to expenses, she can save a few hundred gold coins at most.
According to Ansu's calculations, it is about three hundred gold coins a year.
"I can pay you back."
Luo Jia nodded. She hesitated for a while, pursed her lips slightly, and took out another bill from her pocket. She looked around, pinched the corner of the bill with her white fingers, and handed it to Ansu.
"Here you go." Luo Jia said seriously, "The rest is interest."
Anzu took it and took a look, and found that it was a gambling ticket officially issued by Falore, with a glorious emblem printed on it. The face of the ticket was Anzu: Cersei, the odds were one to ten, and the ticket price was three hundred gold coins.
I bought Ansuying.
Ansu was stunned. He had never been so surprised. Even a series of major events such as Cersei killing Dawn, Merlin making mistakes, and the birth of the Blue Witch had never made Ansu so overwhelmed. It completely exceeded his expectations.
That Luojia, the savior saint of the original world line, the god-given title is 'The Star that Illuminates Naraku's Future', always upright, she is a glorious saint but she can't even pay the registration fee, and she never does bad things. The child Luojia Fast actually deviated from her moral principles and bought gambling tickets that good children should never buy.
Is this still Luojia Fast, the top student everyone loves?
Why are you obsessed with studying for a Ph.D.
Aren't you afraid of dawn?
Facing Ansu's disbelieving questioning gaze, Luo Jia felt uncomfortable being stared at.
She looked away and lowered her head, her snow-white eyelashes trembling slightly. After a while, she whispered softly, making a weak voice like a small animal,
"It was you who taught me bad things. It's all your fault. Mr. Ansu, who loves to lie, is impolite and annoying."
Ansu was speechless. She knew she would take the blame.
"I have never been a good boy. Everything I did was for myself. This year, I ran away from the convent for the first time. I failed to follow the nuns' rules for the first time. I also stayed out all night. I This is the first time I cursed. It was you who taught me bad things. "
Luo Jia raised her head, and her golden eyes reflected Ansu's face. She opened her hands slightly, indicating that this was the real her, "I can't be a good boy that everyone likes, I can only be a good boy." It’s good to be a bad boy that one likes.”
"So as a bad boy, I gambled for the first time," Luo Jia tilted her head. Under the frosty moonlight, her golden eyes seemed to be covered with glow. She blinked and vomited. Sticking out his tongue, "It's forgivable, right?"
"Aren't you afraid of losing?" Ansu looked at Luo Jia and said calmly, "If you lose once, you will lose everything."
"Because you will win." Luo Jia said matter-of-factly, "It's just because of you. So I bet you."
Three hundred gold coins are exactly the saint's basic offering for one year.
She spent a year buying Ansuying.
When everyone was not optimistic about Ansu, only Luojia chose Ansu.
Even Merlin, the god of magic, bet on Cersei and chose the princess of the capital.
"Then your vision is better than that of the Dharma God, Luojia Fast!"
Ansu found himself smiling, and the bright moonlight illuminated his crazy smile layer by layer.
He held the gambling ticket worth three hundred gold coins and put it into his lining pocket. It was clear that Ansu had a gambling ticket worth a gold mine, and its value after cashing was several hundred times that of this gambling ticket - despite this , but he kept this ordinary ticket properly.
Because this is Luojia Fast’s time of year.
"I accepted your gambling ticket."
Ansu looked into Luo Jia's eyes and said calmly,
"And I will promise you—"
"No matter who your opponent is, you will never lose a bet."
Luo Jia looked at Ansu, puffed out, showed a nice smile, and tilted her head, as if she remembered something,
"The bill hasn't been settled yet. It says: I still owe you three pieces of blueberry cake. Farol opened a new store not long ago."
"So - Mr. Ansu, who loves to lie, is impolite and annoying."
Under the frost moon, the little saint's eyes drooped down, and her snow-white eyelashes trembled slightly, as bright as the moonlight of the frost moon. Her expression was very serious,
"If you have time tomorrow, would you like me to pay it back?"
