Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 241: Four thieves

In the gratitude of the burly man, Thor chatted with the strong man.

Sol claimed that this was his first visit to Byron Bian, and he took a gamble at the event, and winning was just luck. I have very limited knowledge about the event itself, and I would like to hear a detailed introduction from the strong man.

The brawny man laughed, and the money he lost in the gambling was obviously making him feel good now. He picked up the jar and bumped into Sol, then patted his chest to make sure that he knew everything.

This is exactly what Saul wanted. As a local resident, this brawny man is also a senior gambler. He must have more attention and understanding of the event than ordinary people.

Next Sol asked meticulously, from the origin of the event to the previous grand occasions, from the quality of the contestants to the popularity of the championship. Then it includes how long each tournament will be held, and many rules about elimination and promotion, finals, etc. in the tournament.

In the end, Sol's problem revolves back to the gambling game, which is also the topic of most interest to the brawny.

Sol knows from the strong man's mouth that each Arena Competition is the main event of the imperial city Byron Bian during the year, and its level of attention and excitement is even far higher than that of the spring festival. The reason is that Byron Bian was originally a country of martial arts.

After all, apart from the dark council in the south and the free alliance in the north, the kingdom of knights has always been in a neutral position on the mainland. But sometimes if you want to be neutral, you also need some strength to resist the waves of annexation and invasion over the long years.

In terms of gambling, Sol learned about the approximate odds fluctuations of each event.

Among them, Sol is most concerned about the audience of this gambling game. Hearing from the strong guy, all the big and small families of Byron Bian will participate in different degrees in almost every year. After all, this kind of fanatical national activity is the best time to grab benefits.

In addition, it is said that in the annual competition, the royal family will relax the folk gambling atmosphere, after all, it is only once a year.

However, there have been two events in the past years. Some large local families wielded authority in their hands and maliciously bought out contestants to fight fake matches in order to grab more benefits.

After the incident was exposed, it was ordered by the king to rectify it severely, because this filthy method originally violated the spirit of chivalry, and it was far from the purpose of the competition. Therefore, the overall atmosphere of the current arena events can be said to be relatively fair and just.

After listening to the brawny's narration, a gleam of light passed through Thor's eyes.

National gambling? This is... very interesting.

Then Saul fell into deep thoughts, and there was noisy surroundings, but he sank into his own world.

The competition in the following arena is still continuing, and the competition methods are roughly divided into two methods: flat foot combat or horseback charge. The choice of the method is agreed by the two parties before the match. If the two sides hold their own opinions, the decision will be made by tossing silver coins.

In terms of the use of weapons, Thor had previously seen fighters with swords, meteor hammers, swords and shields, and knights' spears. In short, there are many types, but most of them are long swords.

The real knight's long spear is actually very heavy. It is a horseback weapon with a thin, pointed, tapered body and a long handle.

The so-called horseback weapon means that when you use this kind of weapon, you cannot swing flexibly on the horseback due to the weight of the weapon. You can only maintain the posture of flat spurs, and then rely on the charge and speed of the horse to achieve strong penetration and penetration. Purpose of destruction.

Of course, the heavy spear is only one of the long-handled weapons, and there are other short-handled and lighter knight spears.

Stanter and Diller were enjoying watching from the sidelines, although they were all knights, and they were far from them in terms of fighting style. But in the final analysis, this is still a battle, a passionate sport for men.

"What's wrong with you? Are you not interested?" Seeing Sol's silence for a long time, and seemingly not very interested, Beth shook Sol's arm and pulled Sol back from his thoughts. .

"Call them, we should go, I probably have some thoughts about making money." Saul spread his fingers and clasped Beth's little hand.

Then the four of them quietly exited in the hustle and bustle of the room.

Along the way, everyone was very curious as to what Sol could do, but seeing his frowning and thinking expression did not bother everyone, and the people coming and going on the street were obviously not a good place to talk about things.

I found a decent hotel at the boundary between the inner and outer urban areas and opened three rooms.

Then Sol gathered his comrades in his room. Everyone sat around Sol with small round stools, like a circle of children waiting to hear the story. There were lights in their eyes, and they wanted to hear Sol again. What a whimsy.

Saul smiled deeply, put his legs on the table, and pointed to his back and legs.

"Damn it! My reputation in this life is ruined." Diller muttered as he lowered his head to help Sol beat his leg.

"Stop talking nonsense, since it's a man, what you have said counts." Stanter and Diller helped Sol beat two legs, Beth's little hand was pinching his shoulder behind his back, Sol closed his eyes with enjoyment .

Before everyone came, they made a gambling agreement. Whoever finds the door to the secret realm of Byron Bian first enjoys the services of others, so now I am willing to bet.

"If you have a way, just say it! Before I break your dog leg." Stant urged with a black face.

"My thoughts are actually the same as your actions at the moment, and they are also derived from gambling." Saul opened his head.

Next, Saul told his companions the content of the conversation he had with the gambler in the arena today.

"You mean, we can make a fortune by gambling during the event?" Diller's voice sounded, and Stanter immediately raised his eyes, and it seemed that the two of them should have similar ideas.

Beth behind him actually thought about it too, but in the end she shook her head with her mouth pursed.

"Impossible, the whole event will take about half a month from the start to the end. Even if we are not eager in terms of time, there is too little room for maneuvering, and our funds are also very limited."

"Sol currently has about two hundred silver coins in his hand. To reach the goal of our trip, this number needs to be doubled by at least one hundred times."

"According to the current odds of gambling, even the odds of one to two are rare. This means that we have to bet all the money in our hands every game, and we must win from start to finish, and we cannot lose a game. There is nothing left."

"In addition, from the point of view of the competition system, there are many competitions, large and small, but the problem is that we can't control the outcome of the event, unless... we can have a way to make the contestants fake matches.

"But this is obviously impossible. Let alone the current atmosphere of the competition is relatively fair. Even if it affects the will of the contestants, unless we have the energy comparable to the local big family, but we don't have it."

Beth's analysis was very detailed, but after speaking, she found that the smile on Saul's face had not disappeared. This means that his analysis did not affect Saul, or he did not guess Saul's ideas, which made Beth even more curious.

Three pairs of eyes fixedly looked at Saul, seeming to want to see through the tricks deep in his heart.

Stanter and Diller strangled Thor's leg one after another, looking at the expressions that we're going to use force if you try to make a fool of yourself.

"Your analysis is very reasonable, but it has nothing to do with what I want to do. But I can't say the specifics at the moment, because I just have a general idea, and I have to consider some details." Suo Er answered aloud.

"Is there a big risk?" Steante asked.

"There must be risks in these gray tricks, but because the randomness is too strong, it is really difficult to judge whether the risks are too big." Sol leaned in the chair and closed his eyes again.

Seeing Sol's mysterious appearance, Stanter and Diller decisively went on strike, swearing in their mouths, carrying the small round stools and went back to their respective rooms.

At night Beth coaxed in bed for a long time, and Thor didn't let go, just said that he was still thinking about it.

In the middle of the night, Saul alarmed Beth when he got up.

"You don't need to go, it's just a small matter. You will sleep and wait for me to come back." Saul rubbed her head.

"No, I want to go too." Beth hung on Saul's neck, she was so curious that she didn't even have a dream.

"Then get dressed quickly." Saul patted her little **** in fear.

Called Stanter and Diller, after everything was ready, the four quietly touched the street in the outer city.

The eyes of the three of them were a little excited and expectant, wanting to see what method Thor had to grab wealth.

Sol looked around, and it was late at night, and there were almost no pedestrians on the street.

"Let's do it, just start here." Thor circled a street lamp, then kicked the base with his foot.

"Move...what hand?" The three of them were dumbfounded.

"Steal the street light, didn't you just say it at noon? Hurry up, Stanter is responsible for shaking the lamppost to loosen it, Diller unlocked the lock and took out the magic crystal by the way, and Beth and I followed to receive the goods." Saul Obviously everything has been arranged.

But... I don't want to sleep well in the middle of the night and come to accompany you to steal the street light? What about doing big things? Stanter and Diller felt very sad. Beth also regretted it, why on earth did I leave the warm bed? Why do you want to join in the fun foolishly?

Since Saul called everyone up late at night, it was obviously not joking, and several people muttered and started to do it.

Stant walked in front and hugged the lamp post, shaking the whole street lamp loose, Thor and Beth easily followed behind, holding on to the lamp post and waiting for Diller to unlock the magic crystal and then received it in the ring.

This kind of street lamp base is buried in a small square pit, and it is not too deep, and it can be shaken without much effort.

With the division of labor, things went very easily, and after a while, the entire street was completely dark. If it is not the residents who often live around, they may not be aware of the changes in the street.

After all, looking at the entire continent, maybe only a freak like Sol would not sleep most of the night and came... stealing street lights.

As for the sudden hacking of the block, it may become a big news tomorrow, but that is a headache for the City Guard.
