Chapter 699: Fradin's Extreme Assumption
The underground vault of the Gilded Club is very large.
A huge area has been dug out under the entire building.
If the entire underground space is completely filled with gold coins, gold bars and gold nuggets, it will look magnificent, magnificent and luxurious.
It is worth mentioning that.
The people who are usually responsible for taking out gold coins from the vault are not the docking specialists, but several people appointed by Rune Monger himself. In the past, only they had the qualifications to enter and exit the vault.
When "Rune Monger" was taken away, these people were also taken away together and asked to cooperate in the investigation and interrogation.
When people just rushed into the vault.
The scene they saw was indeed very shocking.
A large number of gold coins were stored in piles, and some were neatly stacked together with their quantity and value marked below.
But when someone pounced on the gold coins and knocked them down roughly.
Everyone found that something was wrong!
Except for these gold coins near the entrance of the underground vault.
The rest of the vault is empty!
Nothing!
It was so clean that even dogs would shake their heads when they saw it, and thieves would have to leave a few copper coins as poverty relief!
"Where's the gold?!"
Some people were immediately upset!
They blacked out and passed out.
Although the number of gold coins at the entrance of the vault looked large, there must be at least thousands of them.
But compared with the size of the entire Gilded Club, this number...is not enough to send away beggars!
Even if it was multiplied 100 times, it might not be enough to pay off the principal of all club members!
Some people began to talk to themselves like crazy.
"I understand!"
"There must be a powerful illusion faction magic in the vault. We are affected by the magic. What we see are illusions, not real gold!"
"It can't fool me. It's definitely an illusion!"
As he spoke, he began to wail again:
"My money! My savings! All my savings for more than 20 years!"
"Where did my gold coins go? Why is the illusion so realistic!!"
"I can't tell. Someone come and remove the magic!!!"
These people can't accept this terrible reality.
They will rush here at the first time regardless of everything, because they are basically fanatics who have invested most of their wealth, or even all of their wealth, in the Gilded Club.
They will even cut back on their spending for this, find middlemen in the entire capital, and reinvest the profits settled at the end of the year into the club in exchange for a more generous return in the new year.
Now see the gold coins completely disappeared.
Some people will really go insane on the spot, become crazy, and completely unable to think normally.
…
When the disaster that swept the entire capital broke out.
At Monger Manor.
The real Rune Monger was still dizzy and accompanied Prince Fradin to "play chess".
Even though his body could maintain the healthy state of his prime through treatment methods such as the Radiant Divine Art.
But his mind was no longer as quick and sharp as when he was young.
Faced with Prince Fradin's endless "wonderful ideas", Monger was simply inconsolable.
He couldn't figure out why Fradin suddenly became so flexible.
At the beginning, it was just a simulation of blocking monsters.
This process was very simple. Rune Monger only needed to find the weak area on the defense line and "send" the monsters over.
Prince Fradin was not satisfied and asked for a higher difficulty, adding the factor of cultists.
Monger's task added a content of "playing the role of cultists". He had to find a way to treat himself as a believer of the evil god who tried to disrupt the capital in the deduction process.
After trying a simulation, Prince Fradin was still not satisfied.
He continued to increase the difficulty.
"What if the cultists' conspiracy breaks out when the monster red tide happens, and the king's army, the crusaders, and a large number of professionals all go to the border?"
"In that case, the defense of the capital should become much weaker, right?"
Fladin said as he withdrew more than 90% of his own defense forces.
"In this case, how to stop the cultists and monsters?"
Monger's scalp tingled.
He wondered if the prince suddenly developed some masochistic tendencies or persecution delusions.
Under such extreme and harsh conditions, Monger felt that there was no chance of winning just by simply comparing the combat power of both sides.
How could this prevent the monsters from causing damage?
Before the monster red tide breaks out every year, the crusaders of the Glowing God will conduct a "great purification" in the Kingdom of Reyak, carefully plowing all places where there may be signs of cultist activities, to ensure that their homes in the rear will not be stolen while resisting "foreign enemies".
This happens every year.
The capital and the nearby sheltered plains are the focus of inspection.
Even the group that Monger knew, during the Great Purification period, they would decisively pack up what they needed to take away and withdraw from the Kingdom of Reyak for a period of time.
As a result, Prince Fradin chose to challenge the limit.
He artificially set up a situation with a very low chance of winning.
Rune Monger wanted to persuade him, but Prince Fradin enthusiastically said that only by preparing corresponding means to protect the capital in such extreme situations can it be truly foolproof.
No choice!
Monger could only stay honestly and accompany Fradin to repeat the simulation and deduction of this setting with almost no chance of winning over and over again.
And Monger, who plays the role of "cultist and monster", dares not let go!
Because his advantage is too great!
If he lets go too little, it will be the same as not letting go at all, and the whole capital will suffer huge losses.
Unless the 97-year-old Pope of Radiance, who is older than Monger in the simulation, personally stands up to save the world and sacrifices himself, he can barely suppress the advancement of the monsters.
If he lets go too much, it will be obvious at a glance.
Letting go in the battle is what Prince Fradin hates the most, and Monger naturally dares not touch this bad luck.
Over and over again, he plays the role of a cultist and commands the monsters to "destroy the capital".
Monger feels that he is really about to become a cultist!
From day to night, even the food boxes in the middle are directly delivered by Fradin.
Monger is almost unconscious because of the old man, let alone guiding the public opinion of the Gilded Club. Now he just wants to find a place to rest for a while.
Therefore, he had to grit his teeth and take the initiative to "cut flesh":
"Your Highness, otherwise... let's do this!"
"You can add a part of my donation to your power. I can donate a batch of large equipment to you, or use it to store magic scrolls, and purchase sophisticated weapons!"
"In this way, your chances of winning should be much higher!"
When hearing this, Prince Fradin happened to see Pete making a strange gesture to him.
He then showed a slightly strange expression.
He said slowly with a hint of meaning:
"Grandpa Rune."
"Where do you plan to provide this gold coin?"
"Gilded Club?"
