"You broke off a horn while fighting a monster's armor, are you trying to mess with me?!"
"If the five-time champions lose, I'll tear this club apart today! I'll fight Scott to the death!"
From below the stage, shouts like these were heard incessantly, making the security personnel sweat profusely.
Boom boom boom!
Scott was sipping his drink, marveling at how some fool had actually given him so much money, betting it all on the monster armor.
"Who is it? Come in."
Hearing the urgent knocking, he frowned, his tone full of displeasure.
"Boss! Something terrible has happened!"
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"
Upon hearing this, Scott immediately stood up. Could it be that someone was causing trouble?
"Monster armor...he..."
"What? The monster armor was killed? No way, was that kid Cruze really that bad? But anyway, he has no family, so he doesn't have to pay compensation. It's not a big deal, it's just a pity about that armor..."
Scott waved his hand dismissively.
"No! Boss! The Five-Crown King had its horn chopped off in a single exchange by the Monster Armor! And now the Monster Armor is still dominating the Five-Crown King! It looks like the Five-Crown King is going to lose!"
The security guard took a few deep breaths and quickly said.
"what!"
Scott's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Had he heard correctly?
The five-time champions have had their corners cut off, and they're going to lose?
Scott's face changed drastically, and he rushed towards the door, not even having time to feel sorry for his beloved wine glass that had been knocked over and smashed on the ground.
When Scott arrived at the ring, he turned pale upon seeing it.
Just then, Stephen Chow chopped off one of the Five-Crown King's mechanical arms with an axe, and then kicked the Five-Crown King hard in the stomach, denting his armor.
The five-time champion slammed hard against the iron cage, making it bulge out, which frightened the surrounding gamblers into retreating.
"What the hell is going on?! What the hell is going on?!"
Scott, his eyes bloodshot with rage, grabbed a security guard by the collar and roared.
"Boss... I... I don't know either... The level of the monster armor before was on a completely different level compared to now..."
The security guard, who was being grabbed by the collar, looked like he was about to cry. It wasn't his decision who would play in the competition, so what business was it of his?
"It's all over, it's all over..."
Scott, looking distraught, released the security guard, staggered a few steps, and nearly fell to the ground.
"Quick! Put all the spiders up there! Kill the monster armor!"
Scott, his face contorted with malice, grabbed the security guard's collar again and whispered something in his ear.
"Yes! I'll go inform them right away!"
Upon seeing this, the security guard immediately ran away.
Scott, on the other hand, stared intently at the five-time champion on the stage, who was already battered and bruised and helpless.
"Kruze...you dared to trick me! I'm going to kill you!"
On stage, Stephen Chow was putting on a great show when suddenly several lumps of iron fell from the sky.
Stephen Chow quickly dodged, only then realizing that what had fallen were several mechanical spiders.
"You're calling them helpers, huh?"
Stephen Chow scoffed dismissively, thinking that a few spiders didn't think they could stop him.
Meanwhile, some people in the audience who had bet on winning the monster armor immediately shouted out upon seeing this.
"That's not fair! How come there are foreign players here!"
"Nonsense! Those are their own little robots! How can they be considered foreign aid!"
"How come I've never seen that before! That's a foul!"
The man panicked, fearing that the monster armor would lose, and hurriedly shouted.
If this monster armor wins, my 50 Winter City Shields will become over 300, which will allow me to live a carefree life for several days.
"Sit down properly. The club has its own rules. The five-time champions do have a little robot. That's our rule."
When the security guard saw the man shouting loudly, he quickly came over and scolded him.
His own boss was so angry he was about to kill someone, and this guy was still shouting that it was unfair to the monster armor. How could this be allowed?
However, as soon as he finished speaking, several spiders activated their self-destruct mode, preparing to take Stephen Chow down with them in a self-destructing truck.
"Huh, rules?"
Stephen Chow heard the conversation below the stage and gave a cold laugh.
"Rules are meant to be broken!"
His body crackled with electricity, and the axe in his hand trembled violently; the Rift Weapon was already struggling to withstand the force.
"Final blow!"
As the spider robots approached, Zhou Xingxing unleashed a sweeping attack, sending all five spider robots flying and crashing heavily into the cage before exploding.
Boom boom boom boom!
Five explosions rang out in succession, bringing both joy and despair.
Those who were pleased, like Lucasambo and others who had been wearing the monster armor, were naturally delighted.
Those who bet on the five-time champion are now facing despair; they were hoping to earn some pocket money, but now they're bankrupt.
"Do not!!!"
Down in the audience, Scott gripped his sparse hair with both hands, roaring with bloodshot eyes.
It's all over, it's all over.
The club he had painstakingly built up was about to be destroyed today. He was powerless to bear either the exorbitant compensation from Monster Armor or the wrath of countless gamblers who had gone bankrupt betting on the five-time champion.
So the only solution Scott could think of was to run.
"Run... I have to run... or I'll die here... Someone's trying to kill me! Someone's trying to kill me!"
Scott ran back to his office like a madman, opened his safe, and stuffed the Winter City Shield and various rare jewels and gold nuggets into his bag.
After opening the hidden back door, Scott grabbed his bag and prepared to run away.
But he had no idea where to run.
For the first time, Scott felt there was no place for him in this vast lower district.
"Right... go to the upper district! If that news is true, then I can bribe the Silvermane Iron Guards to get into the upper district ahead of time!"
Scott had only been running for a few minutes when he heard a large number of footsteps behind him.
"I'm a master at finding things. It's just one person. If you hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have bothered looking for him."
"Yes, yes, yes, the great treasure appraiser is truly amazing."
Shi Bao's proud voice rang out, and Qiong nodded repeatedly in praise.
Behind Qiong was a large group of people.
"Look! That heartless Scott, who was planning to run off with our money as soon as he heard the upper and lower levels were going to open, is right there!"
He added fuel to the fire, pointing at Scott in front of him and shouting.
Initially, the gamblers didn't believe that Scott had run away, but after the news that the upper and lower levels were about to open was completely revealed, the group of gamblers went crazy, and everything made sense.
No wonder the five-time champion was suddenly beaten up by the monster armor; it was all Scott's doing, all to run away with everyone's money and escape to the upper district.
Scott couldn't clear his name even if he had ten mouths.
"Scott! You bastard! I'm going to kill you!"
"You dare to steal so much money from so many people! You're dead today!"
The gamblers, their eyes bloodshot, rushed forward, and one of them kicked Scott in the waist.
Scott screamed and lunged forward, scattering the large number of Winterfell shields and various jewels from his pack all over the ground.
The people around him immediately became envious and rushed towards Scott, it was hard to tell whether they wanted to steal the jewelry or to deal with him.
Without even a chance to explain, the screams grew from shrill to faint, and Scott's miserable state was self-evident.
"Have you ever thought that you, who disregard the lives of others, would one day find yourself in such a predicament?"
Qiong shook his head, didn't continue watching, and turned to leave with Shi Bao.
As for the club, with such a huge mess of debts, even selling the club probably wouldn't be enough to pay it off.
However, due to Luca's exorbitant bet, the club was ultimately taken over by the Fireballs, who intend to repurpose it for other purposes.
As for the money from those gamblers, Di Huo returned it; otherwise, even Di Huo would have had a headache dealing with those crazy gamblers for quite some time.
Chapter 66 Returning to the Upper Zone
In the clinic.
Natasha stretched and yawned. After hearing the news that the club had been successfully brought down, Natasha could hardly stop laughing.
"I never expected that you could solve such a long-standing problem in the lower district in just two days. I am truly impressed."
Natasha said to Stephen Chow, who was resting and drinking glucose water.
"As it turns out, things become much easier when you use the right methods," Zhou Xingxing nodded.
"But finding a solution isn't that easy; it's only possible if you can do it."
Natasha chuckled; the person in front of her had given her so many surprises.
"Praise me, praise me! If I hadn't gone to find the monster armor, none of this would have happened."
Qiong couldn't sit still any longer after listening to Natasha praise Stephen Chow for so long.
