Chapter 59: Counterattack! Registered Mercenary
Yan Liang is going to fight back!
Seeing this, Lu Ming quietly opened his pupils. He wanted to see if the opponent had any hidden tricks that could turn the tide of the battle.
"what!"
A scream suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of all the audience.
Lu Ming looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wen Chou, who had been so complacent, suddenly fall to the ground, twitching all over.
The audience was extremely surprised to see Wen Chou, who was originally sure of victory, suddenly fall to the ground.
"Hey, what happened? Why did Wen Chou fall down?"
"He looks like he was attacked by something!"
"That can't be possible. Aren't Yan Liang's beasts all fighting? How could Wen Chou be attacked?"
The audience was very puzzled by this, but Lu Ming had already understood the key.
"Yan Liang has a fourth life beast!"
As a tribute scholar, he should have four life beasts, but Yan Liang only summoned three.
Originally, Lu Ming thought that Yan Liang’s fourth life beast died unexpectedly and had not yet added anything. After all, this situation is very common, and the audience and Wen Chou also thought so.
After all, facing the attack of Wen Chou's four powerful life beasts, it was a very dangerous move for Yan Liang to hide one of his life beasts. One wrong move could lead to failure.
It now seems that Yan Liang implemented such a risky strategy, but he succeeded.
In less than a minute, countless blisters appeared all over Wen Chou's body, as if he was burned by fire, which made him extremely painful.
At this time, Yan Liang said: "You admit defeat!"
Wen Chou stared at him with bloodshot eyes: "I won't admit defeat, you'll be finished soon!"
Although Wen Chou was injured and fell to the ground, he did not withdraw his attack on Yan Liang, and his life beast continued to fight.
Yan Liang sneered: "You were bitten by my fire ants and were poisoned by fire. You will die in two minutes at most!"
"And I can definitely last longer than you!"
Wen Chou's face was very ugly at this time. He suddenly shouted: "Referee, I report Yan Liang for a foul!"
"He continued to violate the rules and summoned the Fate Beast after the battle had begun!"
According to the rules of the Colosseum, the fortune teller must summon his own fortune beast before the battle begins. Once the battle begins, he is not allowed to summon his fortune beast again.
The purpose of doing this is to let the audience see the strength of both sides in the battle, so as to better encourage the audience to place bets.
The second is to allow both sides of the battle to have a basic understanding and reduce the casualties of life soldiers in the battle.
Although the Colosseum advocates blood and violence, the status of fortune tellers is very high and they do not want any fortune tellers to die.
Just as Yan Liang said, if the stalemate continues, Wen Chou will surely be defeated. Now he can only hope that his report will be successful.
But the host's next words made him feel like he was falling into an icy cave.
"Yan Liang did not commit any foul. He summoned the Fiery Ants before the battle began!"
Yan Liang's fire ants are very small, only two centimeters in size. When Yan Liang summoned the life beast, no one noticed the existence of the fire ants.
As soon as the fire ants appeared, they drilled into the ground, and took advantage of the battle between the two life beasts to pass through the underground and come to Wen Chou's feet.
Afterwards, when all the beasts were away from Wen Chou, Yan Liang ordered an attack.
Finally successfully completed the counterattack!
Lu Ming looked at Yan Liang deeply: "Good trick!"
Wen Chou, who was lying on the ground, had fire in his eyes. He was also upset about his previous powerful enemy, but now the defeat was certain and he was powerless to turn the situation around. He could only speak dejectedly.
"I surrender!"
As he spoke, he summoned his life beast. Seeing this, Yan Liang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that the other party would fight him to the death, because he couldn't hold on any longer!
Fortunately, Wen Chou was the first to admit defeat!
After Wen Chou admitted defeat, staff from the Colosseum immediately came to his side to treat him.
After the fortune teller challenge ended, the Colosseum held several consecutive battles between fortune tellers and monsters.
Lu Ming was not interested in this at all. He fought monsters in Blackrock Mountain every day, and this kind of fight would not attract his attention at all.
Lu Ming didn't continue watching and left the Colosseum to look for the Mercenary Guild.
The location of a big force like the Mercenary Guild can be known by just asking. Half an hour later, Lu Ming appeared at the Mercenary Guild.
When I stepped into the hall, it was full of noise.
There are so many people here that Lu Ming even feels like it's overcrowded.
There are no identity requirements to become a mercenary. Even an ordinary person can register as a mercenary here.
This leads to the mercenary guild having all kinds of people, which is both chaotic and prosperous!
The registration for the mercenary guild is on the west side, where there is a long row of counters where young ladies are busy.
Lu Ming finally squeezed to the counter and said, "Hello, I want to register as a mercenary!"
Alice, who was working, glanced at Lu Ming and refused: "Although it is easy to become a mercenary, the minimum age is 14 years old. You can't do it!"
Lu Ming was dumbfounded when he heard this. He didn't expect that being a mercenary would have this requirement.
"If I can't become a mercenary, I won't be able to take on missions, and it will be difficult to collect materials for the Scepter of the Fortune Teller!"
He asked somewhat unwillingly: "Is there really no other way?"
Alice looked at Lu Ming in surprise: "Do you really want to be a mercenary?"
Seeing Lu Ming nod, Alice said softly: "If you are a fortune teller, you can ignore the age limit."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I am the fortune teller, please do it for me."
Alice was startled, then her expression became serious: "Are you kidding?"
"Of course!"
"Then please show me your badge of destiny master!"
"The Master's Badge? What is that?"
Lu Ming frowned slightly. He had never heard of the fortune teller badge.
Before Alice could speak, a dissatisfied voice sounded behind her.
"Anyone who is a fortune teller must have a fortune teller badge. You don't even know this, and you still dare to call yourself a fortune teller!"
"Little brat, this is not the place for you to mess around, get out of here!"
There were many people who came to register as mercenaries. When they saw that Lu Ming said he was a fortune teller but did not have a fortune teller badge, they thought he was here to cause trouble and waste their time, and immediately asked Lu Ming to leave in dissatisfaction.
Lu Ming looked back and saw a burly man in his 20s with a face full of flesh.
"Little brat, get out of here right now, this is not the place for you!"
Looking at the other party's arrogant attitude, a fierce light flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
At that moment, the sturdy man felt like he fell into an icy cave, with hairs all over his body standing on end. In his eyes, Lu Ming seemed to have become a great terror.
He subconsciously closed his mouth and moved backwards, trying to distance himself from Lu Ming.
The reason why Lu Ming's glance could make the strong man like this was all due to the murderous aura that he had accumulated invisibly from hunting monsters in Black Stone Mountain all day long.
Most people simply can't handle it.
Seeing the burly man shut up, Lu Ming turned back to look at Alice: "Can you tell me what the fortune teller badge is?"
Although Alice didn't want to answer, she still explained to Lu Ming out of professional ethics.
"After awakening, fortune tellers need to register at the Fortune Teller Temple. Anyone who has registered will receive a fortune teller badge, which is a symbol of their identity."
After hearing this, Lu Ming understood.
He had a conflict with Zhang Kun in the Temple of Fortune Tellers, which resulted in him not being registered in the temple, so naturally he would not have the Fortune Teller badge.
