Chapter 1056 Gambling Battle
“Don’t worry about the children if you don’t understand it yourself.”
With an understatement, Jadeka directly told Leah how much he had. Gavin Ladd, who saw a bit of information on Delin's face, choked up.
It is true that Gavinrad Diesel, who is qualified to represent the Diesel family to participate in the exchange meeting, must be a delicate and exquisite person, but he can successfully live to this age. Jadka was definitely not a light-hearted person, and coupled with the intimacy in his blood, he guessed what his grandson was thinking almost as soon as Gavin Rad opened his mouth.
To put it simply, I want to help the little girl named Liadrin Blood Maple L. Diesel fight to see if she can get Motan.
It would definitely be a great achievement if this talented young man who was also Jadeka's apprentice could be accepted into the Diesel family as a son-in-law or something.
↑This idea did not appear in Gavin Rad's consideration. In fact, this middle-aged knight who was quite optimistic about 'Little Leah' just wanted to help him, and he was very optimistic about 'Little Leah'. I also admire the character of that 'Brother Mo', and I think it would be good if I could bring together Xiao Lia, whom I like, and the one I admire, Brother Mo.
That's right, even though it's just a little bit of girlish sentiment, far from being likeable, Liadrin's details in all aspects are a bit too obvious. Everyone can see it, and the two elves Gavin Rad and Jadekar will naturally not be unaware of it.
As for Motan...
In this worldview where there is no will of the universe to forcibly crush his emotional intelligence and thinking ability, of course he also discovered Liadrin's love for him. Seamlessly switch from 'hostile' to 'favorable' attitude.
To be honest, Mo Tan didn't feel anything, let alone feel anything.
Because he can still understand this kind of heartbeat like the beginning of love. Simply put, it is similar to the handsome man who is active in major works rescuing beauties. As the beauty being rescued, Liadrin, for a short time It’s normal to add a ‘manly filter’ to yourself.
People are all emotional. Because of one thing, one face, one sentence, one scene, etc., they will have feelings for someone of the opposite sex (maybe even the same sex) whose appearance is not lower than the average. ) It is quite common to be tempted, such as when a handsome guy is playing football A beautiful hollow ball is suddenly thrown on the court, such as the smile a certain beautiful woman shows you when your eyes meet, or it may be the words on the school wall saying "Hey, you have to go out", "Oh, you just Come back." This kind of tacit look when passing by.
All of the above examples may cause people to feel some kind of strange feeling between the sexes.
Although Mo Tan has never had a girlfriend, in the past (before he met Yu Chen), under his 'absolutely neutral' personality, he actually had such feelings for all kinds of (beautiful) girls. This feeling, and in the past six months, I have made great use of this emotion when I was in the "chaotic neutral" personality.
Even though he is currently in the state of 'Lawful Good' and has a strict self-discipline, he has often been flirted with by various young ladies, both overt and covert.
So he was not surprised by Liadrin's strange attitude towards him, and on the contrary, he was not moved at all.
If the character in question is 'Tan Mo' instead of 'Mo', then this female knight who is outstanding among the younger generation of the Diesel family is likely to be killed by him in just a few days... or even He had been fooling around for several hours, but he would never be able to do such an operation now.
In short, just play dumb.
"Although I am very grateful for your invitation, I still cannot accept this kindness immediately..."
Mo Tan shook his head at Gavin Ladd apologetically, and politely declined: "During this period, we probably have to help those two great craftsmen with their business. It's really not easy to just let go, and we can be beaten by Diesel." It’s already embarrassing to be recommended by the family to attend that event that many people dream of, so I won’t bother you any more.”
As soon as she heard this, Liadrin’s eyes that were already brightened immediately dimmed. Go down.
Because the great grandfather Jadekar was present, Gavin Rad couldn't insist too much, so he could only nod slightly and said: "Okay, but if there is anyone here who can help, Don’t forget to say hello to us. If nothing else, you can still help with manual labor. Since grandpa owes a favor to the Craftsman Town, the affairs of those two great craftsmen are naturally our Diesel family’s business.”< br>
Mo Tan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I'll trouble you then."
"Hi, we are all family members, so if you have any trouble, don't worry."
Gavin Rad waved his hand vigorously, then looked solemn and said seriously: "Now that the competition is over, let's get down to business. I have recommended this comprehensive knight fighting competition in the name of the Diesel family. Brother Mo, you have participated. Thanks to Dean Marla, the procedures have been completed. There should be no problem on your side, right?”
[It’s a big problem...]
Mo Tan felt deep in his heart. He sighed deeply, and then squeezed out a breath that didn't seem reluctant at all. Qiang smiled: "Thank you, thank you for your hard work."
"It's a small thing."
Although Mo Tan's words were a bit off-topic, Gavin Rad didn't feel there was anything wrong with it. That's right, after all, a guy of Mo Tan's age Son, whether you want to become famous or want to hone yourself, the [Comprehensive Knight Fighting Competition] held every time during the Academy City Exchange Meeting is an extremely tempting platform, just like free money, almost It's impossible for anyone to turn down a spot.
Not only that, because the recommending party is the Diesel family, which is very famous in the knight world, Mo Tan can even enjoy the treatment of no certification, no assessment, no audition, no qualifications and skipping the preliminaries directly. This kind of treatment is what others ask for. No one would think there would be any 'problem' with him if he didn't come.
So Mo Tan’s answer of ‘Thank you, thank you for your hard work’ because he couldn’t lie was directly defined by Gavin Rudd as ‘no problem’ in his heart.
You must know that although Mo Tan is a gifted and talented young knight, he is not a student of Academy City after all. If there are no corresponding channels, it will be extremely difficult to get such a spot. After all, what the world lacks is never talented people, but a platform and an environment for growth for these talented people.
Too many people who have no ability but no platform, no environment, and no opportunities will find it difficult to show their ambitions throughout their lives, like those who, although they lived a poor life, can become famous after they hit the street with their works that were not appreciated at the time. Some people are already lucky, but most of them are the kind of poor people who didn't make any waves in the world when it was hot, and didn't even make a splash when it was cold.
So in Gavin Ladd's view, Brother Mo has no reason to refuse to participate in the fighting competition. Even if he doesn't care about the false fame, this kind of opportunity can improve himself by competing with various opponents on the same stage. There are also very few.
As a result, Gavin Ladd directly started the next topic and said in a deep voice: "Brother Mo, I have seen your strength just now. It is no exaggeration to say that at least in the 'high-level' rank, you are definitely the best." The most top-notch player, so I think you must sign up for the [Individual Competition]”
“Well, okay”
Mo Tan is already prepared. He nodded and answered in the affirmative happily.
"Well, on our side, besides you, there are also Leah and Kevin participating in the individual competition."
Gavin Rad smiled, shrugged and said: "Comprehensive The individual competition of the Knight Fighting Competition is an elimination system, and the registration threshold is relatively low. As long as the strength is above the intermediate level, the age is no more than 30 years old...well, the pure-blood elf is 250 years old, and has passed three auditions and one round. You can get a spot to participate in the main competition in the preliminaries. The competition area is divided into three levels: mid-level, high-level and epic level. However, because you are all recommended by our Diesel family, you can skip the audition and directly enter the high-level competition area. The main game begins.”
"Start directly from the main match..."
Liadrin frowned and hesitated: "Is this really fair?"
"What is fair and unfair? ”
Kevin, who was called over to listen together, smacked his lips and spread his hands. He said: "We are both human beings. My mentor is the famous [Dawn of Crime]. Miss Leia, you are from the Diesel family, one of the largest knight families. Is it fair to others?" "Liadrin paused slightly and found that she was speechless.
"Think about it from another perspective, if we, who have good resources and mentors, go to participate in the audition, is it fair to those who originally had a chance to get a ranking, but ended up not being able to even enter the main competition because they met us?"
< br>Kevin saw that Liadrin was tangled in thought, glanced at Mo Tan and then added: "Look at this person again, they are all of the same age. They have neither legendary level mentors nor... With family support, the result is inexplicably powerful. I don’t know what you think, Miss Leah. Anyway, if I meet him in the audition, I will definitely complain about the competition system after being eliminated.”
“This. ...That's right..."
Liadrin glanced at Mo Tan's gentle and humble profile in a daze, murmured something in a low voice, and said nothing more.
"Well, once we finish talking, I will continue."
Not paying attention to the interruption between the two, Gavin Ladd just paused and continued: "Although there are only three competition areas in the [Individual Competition], the Epic Competition Area is basically a decoration, with only twenty or thirty people participating every year. , and most of them are familiar faces. Everyone is familiar with them, and they are also familiar with each other, so it is more of a performance than a competition, but it is still worth watching.”
Kevin nodded and pondered: "In other words, the real highlight is our [High-level Division]?"
"To be precise, it is the three high-level divisions and the mid-level division The top twelve, but you don’t need to worry about the mid-level division.”
Gavin Rad corrected, and then said nonchalantly: “The specific competition schedule and rules are late. I will send it to you soon. As for me, I will make a few digressions here.”
[Digression? 】
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows alertly, feeling that Gavin Ladd would really start to 'get down to business' next.
"You should all know that since a long time ago, the comprehensive knight fighting competition held at every exchange meeting was organized by the Knights Guild Academy City Branch, the Paladin Knight Academy, and the White Knights where we are now. Hosted by the Oath Knights Academy, In the nearly thirty years of exchange meetings, the most important [Team Competition] championship has been won by the White Oath Knight Academy and the Diesel Family delegation, while the [Individual Competition] is a similar situation. Of course, there are a few This is an example of a private dark horse winning the championship, but that is not The point..."
Speaking of this, Gavin Rad took a deep breath and said seriously: "The point is that the Paladin Knight Academy has always been overwhelmed. Because of this, which school The college’s recent student intake is not as good as in previous years.”
< br>“What do you mean?”
Kevin blinked in confusion. He didn’t think that the topic that Gavin Rad suddenly brought up had anything to do with him. He just asked casually: “It’s because of them. Weaker? ”
"No, that college is very powerful, but we have been working together to stumble them in the past years."
Gavin Rad shook his head and gave the answer with a serious face.
Kevin was shocked at that time.
Liadrin was not surprised, but the corners of her mouth twitched twice.
Only Mo Tan breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, feeling that the familiar, outrageous, and deceptive style of painting that followed him like a shadow was finally back.
"There is a reason for this."
He seemed to know that what he just said was not very honorable, so Gavin Rad immediately coughed lightly and explained quickly: "Because of the education in that college There is a big problem with the method. It just doesn't pay attention to the honor of knights. The attitude towards students is even more brutal. Although there are many strong people in it, at least 30% of the freshmen are dismissed every year because of "physical reasons", and almost all of them are dismissed. The future was ruined."
Kevin's eyes widened: "Oh, Spartan devil education?"
"In short, although we can't be said to be decent, But even people with knightly ethics don’t like that academy. So starting from fifty years ago, the Diesel family and the White Oath Knight Academy have consciously suppressed the Paladin Academy, and the Knights Guild has Although Bian and Bian are not helping each other on the surface, they have also provided us with a lot of help secretly."
Gavin Rader bluntly explained the ins and outs and said seriously: "The effect is still very significant, although the foundation is still there. Yes, but the current scale of the Paladin Knight Academy is no longer than in previous years, and the annual recruitment scale is also much smaller, so we contacted the dean there at this exchange meeting and made a suggestion. "
"What suggestions?"
Liadrin's curiosity was also aroused.
“Actually, it’s very simple. I just want them to introspect and reform their education model.”
Gavin Rudd shrugged and said in a deep voice: “The result...”
>
“What was the result?”
"As a result, not only were we rejected, but the Paladin Knight Academy also proposed a bet."
"Bet? Is it about this fighting competition?"
"That's right."
"What are they betting on?"
"Betting that they can win both the [Individual Competition] and the [Team Competition] championship in the high-level area in this fighting competition. ! ”
"What about the stakes?"
"The stakes are big."
"How big?"
"Quite a big one!"
