Chapter 1470: Chapter 554: I Want to Fight Ten
Unfortunately, she was a step too late, and Sena Romanov immediately seized the opportunity, decisively saying, "Earl Red Blade is a true hero! Good! As you said, the ten of you, come together. I indeed want to witness the style of the so-called hundred-battle elites."
At this moment, even the slowest person should realize Sena’s intent to kill Ren Zhong.
According to the basic principles of interpersonal relationships among the Empire’s nobility, since Sena first stated that this would be an unrestricted combat, and Earl Red Blade had accepted, it was impossible to further increase the stakes casually.
Increasing from four people to ten people was a completely different level.
She hastily seized the loophole in Earl Red Blade’s words and made her intentions to put him on the spot abundantly clear, aiming to kill.
To outsiders, at this point, there was no turning back.
Ren Zhong himself was unfazed, nodding calmly, "As you wish."
Twenty minutes later.
The location moved to a vast open space on the outer side of the estate.
The many participants of the procurement conference had already moved to the spectator stand temporarily summoned by Seven Seven.
This stand was quite comprehensive, equipped with an extremely strong transparent shield for defense, as well as a precise modeling 3D projection linked to an optical satellite high in the sky.
You could only say that it lived up to being the capital of Marquis Zhenjiang’s Wangjiang Star; it seemed like a primitive forest, but everything was fully equipped.
In the open space ahead, Ren Zhong and the ten elite soldiers of the Duke Wenle Mansion, now armored, faced off against each other from a distance.
The armor of these ten was not all humanoid; the styles varied, with some armor being extremely thick, showing formidable defense, while others were like close-fitting soft armor, clearly focusing on speed as agility-type equipment.
With just a casual glance, Ren Zhong immediately judged based on the positioning and postures of these ten, as well as the subtle interconnected movements between them, that these ten were by no means a random assembly, but had years of close cooperation experience, and the combined effect was by no means ordinary.
Seven Seven did not stand with the other participants of the procurement conference but stayed alone in a private room at the top of the spectator stand.
"Marquis, what do you think are the odds of Ren Zhong’s brother winning this?"
Marvell Louis’s voice came from behind Seven Seven, not knowing when he had arrived there.
Seven Seven, hands behind his back, replied in a cold tone that Ren Zhong had never heard before, "I don’t know."
Marvell wasn’t disappointed at not receiving an answer, just sighed, "Reason tells me that Ren Zhong’s situation is very dangerous, but from my investigations in the Nanxiang Star Cluster, I have a strange guess in my heart."
"Indeed. Seemingly reckless, but he never does anything he’s not confident about." Seven Seven finished the sentence for Marvell.
"By the way, Earl, how are you doing now?" Marvell asked somewhat hesitantly.
Seven Seven: "That’s not something you should ask. Since I can still project my thoughts into this bionic body remotely, it proves I’m fine. You and your ancestors have been my most trusted subordinates; if there really was a dramatic change in my situation, I would notify you in advance. Stop guessing."
"Understood."
While the two were chatting, Ren Zhong and his ten opponents had simultaneously activated their armor, continually ascending to higher altitudes.
Unknowingly, both parties had slightly widened the distance, making it look like Ren Zhong was fleeing and the ten were pursuing.
Marvell murmured softly, "Is Ren Zhong’s brother trying to escape?"
Seven Seven: "No, he is using his speed advantage to lure Sena’s people to slightly spread out. But his plan will be hard to achieve."
At that moment, Seven Seven’s expression changed slightly.
Marvell quickly inquired, "What’s the matter, Marquis?"
Seven Seven maintained the same cold tone but with a slight change in style, "This man is truly bold and skillful, still finding time to message me at this moment. He tells me he appreciates our transformation of Wangjiang Star and that he’s chosen to battle in high altitude to avoid damaging Wangjiang Star’s surface environment."
Marvell: "..."
At this moment, seeing the distance was about right, Ren Zhong in mid-air no longer increased his speed but slowed down slightly, turning to face downward.
The elite soldiers of Duke Wenle Mansion were not fooled; even while in pursuit, they did not disperse their formation but maintained a relatively even speed.
They were not stupid; knowing that since both sides agreed to the fight, Earl Red Blade couldn’t just keep running away.
Leaving aside the issue of face, if he really fled, on what grounds could he get people to place orders for his high-priced coatings on the spot?
