C16 You Are Free

"Congratulations, Wang Xiaohua, you are free!"

As soon as she entered the base, Wang Xiaohua heard a soft voice beside her ear. Then, she felt the space around her disappear. Zhang Lieh, who had been standing behind her, had disappeared.

Wang Xiaohua was a little stunned. She couldn't believe that Zhang Lieh would let her go so easily.

Why?

Qin Xiaotian and the others were existences that he dared to kill without hesitation. Why did he just let her go?

Could it be that he still remembered the old love between them?

It must be like that. Otherwise, how could he explain that he didn't even want the points? He must be reluctant to kill me!

Zhang Lieh's sudden departure made Wang Xiaohua, who had already entered the base and was still in the state of invisibility, fall into deep thought.

However, her thoughts were too childish. If Zhang Lieh knew what she was thinking, he might even laugh at her.

Of course, he didn't have time to care about these things right now. He had clearly heard the words of the crowd at the entrance of the base.

Below the Combat Power Board of the Black Iron Base, there was a bet set up by the three consortiums.

A mysterious man in a black hooded hat suddenly appeared in front of the stage. "Thirty thousand points, buy the weakest Wang Hui to come back unscathed!"

The ancient voice and the flat tone instantly stirred up a thousand waves on the bet.

"Thirty thousand points, buy the weakest Wang to come back unscathed? Is this guy's brain rusty?"

"Yeah, who is this guy? He is so mysterious. He is buying the weakest Wang, and the points are going to burn."

"That's right, that's right. Today is already the third day. Most of the weakest players are probably dead. The three consortiums are about to close their accounts. Idiots! Don't give them points and increase the odds."

The mockery of the surrounding people did not shake the man in black at all. He slammed his card on the table and said to the stupefied record keeper, "What are you waiting for? Do you not dare to accept it?"

The record keeper at the front desk of the betting desk did not dare to slight the man in black. He laughed and said, "Haha, accept it! Of course I accept it! Why wouldn't I accept it? It's only 3 o'clock now!"

The procedures were very fast. The man in black quickly received the receipt of the Black Iron Base's Holo-Brain and left.

Only when he disappeared from everyone's line of sight did the surrounding people start to discuss again.

"What the f*ck is this? The three consortiums have just gotten 30,000 points for free!"

"Isn't that right? It's fine if he is a fool, but he's still acting mysterious. I can't take it anymore!"

Everyone was talking about him. In an instant, the man in black had become the stupidest fool in the entire base.

However, just as everyone was praising him, a handsome man in luxurious clothes looked at the man in black who had just left. He walked to the betting desk and casually said, "10,000 points, buy the weakest player."

When he said that, countless spectators were shocked. Among them, someone even shouted out the man's identity.

"Isn't that Chu Feng?"

"Chu Feng? Which Chu Feng?"

"Chu Feng from the Combat Power Board? Which Chu Feng could it be?"

"What is going on? Why would Chu Feng, the second on the Combat Power Board, buy the lowest-ranked King? Could it be that he has heard some news?"

Chu Feng's actions caused the spectators to think of many possibilities. Some of the more radical ones even took out their points cards and hesitated to follow the trend.

"Friends, I didn't hear any news! It was just a sudden impulse. You guys don't have to follow me. If you lose, don't blame me!"

Just as everyone was hesitating, Chu Feng smiled and explained, causing everyone to give up on following the trend.

Chu Feng bought the lowest-ranked King for his own selfishness. Winning or losing was not a big deal for him, so they could not do anything about it.

Chu Feng's words were clear. If someone followed him and bought the King, they would not be able to blame him even if they lost.

However, just as Chu Feng left, the three consortium's people who were smiling on the screen of the Combat Power Board suddenly stopped smiling and started to close their bets.

Such a strange situation naturally did not escape the attention of the idle gamblers.

"Hey, hey, what's going on? Didn't you say that the bet would only be closed at five o'clock? Why did it close now?"

"Yeah, what's the meaning of this? Explain it clearly. Your bet was certified by the Black Iron Base's Holo-Brain, so you can't run away!"

Immediately, someone shouted, and a person from the three consortia immediately stood up and explained politely, "Brothers, don't worry. The three consortia and the base's Holo-Brain have been verified. Where are they going?"

"As for the matter of closing the market ahead of time, that was the order from the higher-ups. We are just working people, so we don't know much. I guess it's a matter of risk."

"The bets this time are quite big. Currently, the points involved are already tens of millions. The consortia might have considered this, so they asked us to close the market ahead of time!"

The attitude of the person in charge and the meaning behind his words were barely enough to convince these gamblers, so they did not stop them anymore.

However, just as they put away the betting tables and chairs, an unusually domineering voice sounded from behind them.

"Haha, closing the market? I, Qin Xiao, have not bet yet. How can the three consortia close the market just like that?"

Everyone looked over. Qin Xiao, who was dressed in black armor, walked over with large strides.

Then, he pressed down on the table and took out a point card. "I know how capable my cousin is. Not much. Three hundred thousand points. That scum won't be able to come back."

"Young Master Qin, you... I can't make the decision. Don't make things difficult for me, okay?" He almost cried when he met such a domineering master like Qin Xiao.

"Cut the crap. The three consortia have been selling in the base for many years. Quickly help me verify the receipt. Otherwise, you won't be able to leave the base in the future. Once you leave the base, I'll make you die like that scum!"

Qin Xiao was an extremely overbearing person. He would do whatever he wanted to do.

The person in charge was just a worker, so how could he dare to oppose Qin Xiao? He immediately signaled his subordinate to do the procedures for Qin Xiao.

"Qin Xiao, you are really something. You don't even let a mere employee of a consortium go!"

Before the first wave had even settled down, another wave came. Just as Qin Xiao had just obtained the small amount of money, a beautiful woman slowly walked out from the crowd on the left.

"Yun Bing, this is not bullying. The news from the three consortia was announced at 5:00 PM. They broke the rules first, so how can they blame me for not following the rules?"

"Besides, don't hold it up. Hurry up and buy some. This time, it's all thanks to our Xiaotian. Otherwise, how could we have such a good opportunity to earn points?"

In the face of Yun Bing, who was ranked first on the Void Combat Power Board, Qin Xiao's attitude was no longer overbearing, but his words were still arrogant.

At this moment, it was as if Qin Xiaotian of the Qin family was leading everyone to gain points for free. It made Yun Bing want to laugh.

While smiling, Yun Bing came to the betting table and said softly, "If you can still bet, buy 10,000 yuan and bet on Qin Xiaotian facing the little guy!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a bomb exploding in the crowd.

Yun Bing, who was ranked first on the Void Combat Power Board, actually betted on the bottom, and even betted on Wang Neng.

Of course, she didn't need to explain it. Everyone could tell that she was clearly playing the same game as Qin Xiao, and there was no value in it.

Who was Yun Bing? She was the number one person on the Void Combat Power Board. Even though she was being polite, the person in charge did not dare to offend her and immediately helped her with the procedures.

"Hahaha, good! Yun Bing, don't say that. I like your stubborn personality!"

Qin Xiao's eyes were filled with possessive desire, and his words were not concealed at all. Yun Bing was not angry, but completely ignored him.

After getting the tickets, she didn't even look at Qin Xiao and turned around, disappearing like water vapor.

"Humph? A lofty woman. I will make you regret it sooner or later." Yun Bing's indifference made Qin Xiao extremely angry, but he could do nothing about it.

The other party's strength, family background, and direct line of descent were all slightly stronger than his. He could be arrogant, but he would not offend the other party for such a small matter.

On the other hand, Yun Bing could ignore him, but she would not fight to the death for such a thing.

After Yun Bing left, Qin Xiao also left quickly.

However, their departure did not mean that the three major consortiums would stop betting. Because many of the big figures on the Genetic Combat Power Board had finished watching and started to place bets or bets.

Most of the bets were placed on Qin Xiaotian. After all, Qin Xiao had already said it before, so it should be a sure bet.

Of course, there were also a small number of people who were truly gamblers who were willing to bet on a small reward.

After ten minutes, the betting pool finally withdrew.

At this point, the uproar of the Genetic Combat Power Board had finally come to an end.

Logically speaking, before the final result of the bet was out, the Black Iron Base should have been quiet for a while.

However, the reality was not as such. The entire Black Iron Base was only quiet for less than ten minutes before it was completely blown up by a shocking piece of news.

The only female in the betting pool was Wang Xiaohua!

Of course, Wang Xiaohua's return was not the key point. The key point was that she was the only one who came back.

Qin Xiao, his cousin Qin Xiaotian, and his team, Wang Xiaohua, were the last to return.

This was great. After hearing that Wang Xiaohua had appeared at the entrance of the base, all the people who had placed their bets immediately rushed to the entrance of the base, wanting to know the final result of the bet.

However, before most of them could reach the entrance of the base, the Holo-Brain sent out the guardians to stop them. This was because the entrance of the base was completely blocked.

Under such circumstances, the Holo-Brain, who represented the highest will of the base, came out and stopped the chaos caused by the betting pool.

The Holo-Brain could not care about the fights outside the base, but no one could disobey it within the base.

As for Wang Xiaohua, she was protected by the guardians sent by the Holo-Brain and moved into the highest-class tavern in the base, the Black Iron Tavern.

After that, Wang Xiaohua used the Holo-Brain to announce to the public that she was in a mess and needed time to sort out her emotions. At eight o'clock in the evening, the Holo-Brain would give a detailed report of the final result of the bet.

It was only at this moment that Wang Xiaohua finally understood how terrifying a whirlpool she had fallen into.
