Chapter 232 Black Scorpion·Crazy Flag·Excavation Group (3rd Update)
After listening to the leader's reasonable analysis, everyone in the Black Scorpion Excavation Group became excited.
"Wow, boss, you are so talented!" At the outermost edge of the "Black Scorpions" in the meeting was an unusually tall man. Because he was too tall, he could not participate in the reconnaissance activities in the past few days. His understanding of these "courtyards" all came from the reports of his companions and the analysis of the boss Zarug at this meeting: "Damn, this way, we can do another big deal soon - when I think of the price offered by that old bastard hanging upside down, I feel so happy!"
A cunning man next to the tall man also said: "Yes, leader, Gao Ge is really right. The reward this time is 18 streets higher than the previous commissions. So, leader, I have something to say."
"What's the matter, Cliff?" Seeing his subordinate who suddenly had something to say, Zarug looked up and looked at Cliff with his one eye, and said seriously.
He knew that in the "Black Scorpion Excavation Group", only Cliff, who was responsible for dismantling the traps, had studied - although he dropped out of a shabby school - but he was also the smartest person in the group, and what he wanted to say at this time should not be nonsense.
"Leader, so many years have passed, and our excavation group has always been like a stray dog." Cliff took out his trap tool kit, and then seemed to recall the past, and then he said to Zarug with a serious face: "I think it's time for this kind of messed up life to come to an end - Leader, it's rare that the reward this time is so big, after this job, let's... quit the business?"
"..."X4
After Cliff spoke, all the "Black Scorpions" in the audience fell into a brief silence.
Mina stroked the whip on her waist - this flexible whip had taken away countless treasures that were difficult for ordinary people to obtain in many ancient tombs and underground palaces;
Zike stood on tiptoe - he used this pair of sprinting legs to represent the "Black Scorpion" snatching food from countless peers;
Gao Ge straightened his back - he relied on his strong body to clear the way in front countless times;
Cliff kept pinching the tool kit in his hand - relying on the old but reliable tools in it, he didn't know how many dangerous traps he had dismantled.
Looking at the subordinates around him, Zaruge suddenly realized that they were no longer as high-spirited as they were in the past; wrinkles began to appear on his forehead.
Time has diluted all ambitions, and the daily necessities of life have also crushed all the yearning and drive for adventure and a life of licking blood on the blade.
Yes, it's time to end this kind of wandering and precarious life.
"Okay, let's do this, Cliff." Zarug nodded and promised his subordinates in front of him: "After this job, we will retire."
...
"Mina, after this operation is over, I hope you can promise me one thing." After all the other members left, the leader Zarug said to Mina who was left alone: "I hope that after this operation is over, we can go back to our hometown and get married."
"Chief..." Mina looked at Zarug who suddenly expressed his feelings to her. She smiled after a while and said: "Since you are old and stupid, you will probably have no way out if you leave this kind of life, so let me take care of you."
"Haha, it's still the same." After being scolded by Mina, Zarug smiled contentedly.
"But you have to promise me one thing." Mina thought about it and proposed a new condition to Zaruge in front of him: "I want to be a model after I retire. Can you help me apply for a school?"
——————Black Scorpion Excavation Group——————
"Hime Kui Marina" is very unhappy now.
As the duel spirit of the second-generation duel king Dongfeng Gu Hui, she has a very important mission, which is to guard the seal of the "Three Phantoms".
Although it is a bit boring, the flower princesses do not dislike such a job because it is good for them.
I don't know whether it is because the power of the sealed "Three Phantoms" is too strong, or Xiaohui, who arranged the "Four Courtyards", has too high a level of magic attainment. During the period of sealing the "Three Phantoms", the flower princesses can experience "another life" in their dreams and learn a lot from it.
In that dream, Marina played a flower demon who looked almost exactly like herself - the flower demon was called "Yuuka Kazami", who also lived in such a sunflower field, with a very extreme personality and relatively strong strength.
That dream was too real, making Marina often feel whether she became "Yuuka Kazami" in the dream, or she became herself in the dream?
It is precisely because of this that Marina is very grateful to Xiaohui for giving her such an opportunity to experience another life... Oh no, it is a demon life.
But today, in a magazine, Marina saw something that made her unable to keep silent.
"I can be sure that they have ulterior motives." In the "Winter Courtyard", Marina stomped her feet and said to the other three flower princesses in front of her: "This kind of news is mentioned in this magazine about duels, and the "Duel King's School" is specifically mentioned. It must be an innuendo, right?"
Marina pointed to a copy of Star Duelist in the middle. This magazine happened to be flipped to the article that Ojiaou had skipped, "Shock! This kind of thing happened in the Duel King's alma mater. Men will be silent and women will cry after reading it."
And this headline-grabbing news actually talks about the news that a "beast school doctor" was born in a "certain high school" where the Duel King came from. He used the guise of "physical examination" to do some unscrupulous things to the female high school students in the cheerleading team and gymnastics team in the school.
The article did not mention any sentence about who the "Duel King" was, but when referring to the "Duel King", "she" was used instead of "he"!
It is well known that although there are many female duelists in the world, there is only one female Duel King - Dongfeng Gu Hui.
"Calm down, Ji Kui, are you sure you're not too nervous?" Hong Ji looked at her friend who was obviously furious, frowned and said, "Although the author is suspected of misleading, the whole article does not deliberately point to Hui-chan. This is a common practice among media people. The purpose... should be just to attract people's attention?"
Forcibly linking things with completely unrelated celebrities is also a common practice for the media to attract attention. And this report clearly has such traces. It talks about the "beast school doctor" throughout the article, and does not mention "Duel King Dongfeng Gu Hui". It is obviously just for the sake of popularity.
"Is it really that simple?" Unlike Hongji, Yingji read the magazine carefully, then handed it to Tsubakiji, who was wearing a shrine maiden costume, and said, "Do you have any ideas?"
Tsubakiji pinched her chin, and then suddenly said, "I'm just a little curious... You see, this is a magazine about card games and duelists, right? Why does it publish this kind of news?"
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing special, just thinking, can this increase sales? After all, sales... mean money, right?"
When she said the last sentence, her eyes were shining...
