Chapter 845: Legendary Pentathlon Challenge
Fatty chuckled and said,
“But don’t be too nervous. Maybe your boyfriend is an expert locksmith. He can open it even without your hint…What?”
When the fatty said that, he would be extremely shocked.
A loud mechanical sound rang out.
Kacha!
The bottom of the glass tank suddenly loosened, and the four pieces of glass surrounding Matthew slowly rose up.
Matthew walked out of it with calm steps.
Fatty lowered his head to take a look, and his face was filled with shock.
Because when he showed Sif the parchment, he had already unlocked the complicated combination lock!
“How is this possible?
“Could it be that I accidentally switched to the correct password when I was adjusting yesterday? That’s impossible…”
Fatty was dumbfounded.
The two staff members behind him were also at a loss.
Sif looked at Matthew in surprise and joy, her eyes full of admiration.
“So, can we proceed to the next stage?”
Matthew asked gently.
Fatty seemed to wake up from a dream.
” Yes, the next one is ‘Walking with Beasts’. This level is a little dangerous. The two of you will be locked in a cage with a hungry beast at the same time. There is only one exit from the cage. You can only…”
His rambling was interrupted by Matthew calmly.
“Bring me there.”
Fatty was stunned for a moment before hurriedly leading Matthew and the other man out of the room and quickly heading to the next secret room.
..
In an even wider secret chamber.
The huge iron cage slowly descended.
Not far away.
A hungry tiger slowly walked over.
Sif grabbed Matthew’s hand nervously.
Little did he know.
Fatty, who was outside the cage, seemed even more nervous.
“He looks really hungry.”
Sif whispered.
Matthew smiled.
“Then he should be glad that I’m not hungry today.”
As he spoke.
He swaggered towards the exit with Sif.
The tiger followed Matthew closely.
The moment Matthew passed by him.
Under the surprised gazes of Fatty and the other staff members.
The tiger suddenly lay on the ground, its chin firmly pressed against the cold granite, its tail tightly retracted, and an unknown liquid actually flowed out of its lower body!
A strong smell of urine spread in the cage.
Sif quickly pinched her nose.
The two of them quickly walked out.
From the beginning to the end.
The tiger did not dare to cross the line.
..
The third event was called ” Night of the Undead.”
The content was about taking a key from the neck of a ghoul bound by iron chains.
Other than this powerful ghoul.
There were even some zombies chained in the room.
The moment he entered.
Even the fat man and the other staff members could not help but frown.
This was a piece of cake for Matthew.
He flung his hand away.
“Go get it!”
He thought Sif would hesitate.
But the girl’s courage was clearly beyond Matthew’s expectations.
She only said, “Okay.”
Then, she swaggered towards the ghoul in the middle of the room.
“Be careful…”
It seemed that the girl with bright eyes and white teeth formed a sharp contrast with the ghoul. Even the fatty couldn’t help but remind her.
However, Sif did not care and rushed in front of the ghoul.
The zombies beside her were completely indifferent to her presence.
But at this moment, Sif stopped.
She pinched her nose with one hand, her face full of disgust.
This ghoul had not been treated with negative energy at all. Its body was too rotten. The smell alone was enough to make people faint.
Sif tried hard to overcome the disgust in her heart and wanted to reach out to take the key around the man’s neck.
But at this moment.
The ghoul suddenly lowered its head, grabbed the key with its right hand, and threw it to Sif!
Sif was stunned.
She ran back with the key.
“I got it!”
Outside the room.
She happily asked Matthew for credit.
Matthew looked at Fatty calmly.
“Next round.”
A few drops of sweat appeared on Fatty’s forehead.
” Wait a minute. The White-Headed Falcon needed for the fourth stage needs to be summoned by Lord Kratos himself. I’ll inform him now.
“Why don’t you go to the VIP room next door and have a seat first?”
Matthew did not make things difficult for him.
“Sure, but be quick.
“By the way, can you give me the bonuses for the first three projects first?”
Hearing this.
More sweat trickled down Fatty’s forehead.
..
Ten minutes later.
In the VIP room.
A middle-aged man dressed in jewellery walked in quickly.
His appearance was very eye-catching. He had a pair of big and small eyes of different size, and there were three scars on the left side of his face that seemed to be left by the claws of a wild beast.
“Hello, both of you.
” I am the owner of this theatre and circus. I am also known as the King of Gems, Kratos.
“Let’s get straight to the point.”
The middle-aged man looked at Matthew politely.
“I’ll directly offer 9000 gold coins to ask the two of you to withdraw from the competition. How about that?”
Before Matthew could answer.
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said,
” With your abilities, you’re either a mage or a high-level druid. We really don’t have a way to deal with you coming to our place to cause trouble.
“As long as you can withdraw from the competition, even if you want more compensation, it’s negotiable.
” To be honest, I won’t let you take that super gem.
“This is a loss that I can’t afford.”
Matthew asked in confusion,
“But since you chose to take out the gemstone to attract others to participate in the competition, you should be prepared to meet someone capable, right?”
Kratos ‘expression turned ugly, but he quickly said,
” I’m a businessman, and businessmen only care about profits. In order to attract more people to participate, I naturally need some gimmicks.
” However, I just went to verify it and found that my subordinates made a mistake in the showcase earlier. I actually provided a slightly smaller sapphire for this competition, not the yellow gem that was mistakenly displayed just now.
“If you insist on continuing, even if you obtain the final reward, you won’t be able to obtain what you want.
“Instead of this, why don’t I add a little more gold coins to you? How about everyone take a step back?
” I know that you have some ability, but I’m not boasting shamelessly. I have some connections in Jiliu City…”
Matthew could hear his threat.
He couldn’t help but say sarcastically,
“So, do you use this method on everyone who passes three tests in a row? Compensate 9000 gold coins? No wonder no one has passed the fourth stage.”
Kratos was extremely thick-skinned.
He turned a deaf ear to Matthew’s mockery and only chuckled.
“I’m just a businessman.
” Also, in the history of the Legendary Challenge that I’ve organized, there’s no one like you who has passed three tests in a row in such a short period of time.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The door to the VIP room was suddenly pushed open.
The fat man, who was sweating profusely, rushed in.
At this moment, he looked even more embarrassed.
Fatty whispered into Kratos ‘ear as soon as he entered.
Kratos ‘face immediately revealed a look of bewilderment.
“What?
“Another pair has passed the third stage?”
His voice was soft.
However, Matthew heard it clearly.
The corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile.
At the same time, he was also curious about the other group of people who had passed three rounds in a row.
“Why don’t we ask them to come to the VIP room?
“Let’s talk about it and see if the compensation of 9000 gold coins is sincere enough.”
Matthew added.
Kratos glared at him fiercely.
Then, he summoned another lackey and whispered,
“Hurry up and invite Young Master Hood!”
