Chapter 279 Battle of Revenge
Chapter 279 Battle of Revenge
"Look, Head Nurse Sigwen, my arm has healed, and the bleeding has stopped. You can rest assured now." Sigwen stepped forward and examined it carefully, a hint of surprise appearing on her cute little face. "Wow! Really? It healed so quickly! I've never seen anything like it before, it's incredible!"
"Perhaps it's because Nurse Higwen's medical skills are more advanced, and the medicine is more effective. That's why I recovered faster. Anyway, thank you for taking care of me, Nurse Higwen. It's getting late; it'll be noon soon, so I'll have to get back to work now."
Leiosley had recovered, and Siegwen no longer tried to stop him. After removing the stitches from his arm, she saw him off. Qiuhe was about to follow her out, but then stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he turned back to Siegwen's side.
"Thank you, Head Nurse, thank you for your meticulous kindness and love. We will always remember your care. I promise you, one day in the future, we will change everything."
Siegwen listened quietly until Qiuhe finished speaking. With a gentle, angelic smile, she slowly reached out and softly kneaded Qiuhe's cheeks, as if cradling a cute little pet. She then brought her face close to Qiuhe's head, rubbing against him like she was petting a large, oversized cat.
After they stopped, Siegwen looked at Qiuhe's face. "Yes, yes, I'll remember your promise, little one. You should go ahead and get busy. If you linger here any longer, that gentleman might get anxious again."
Finally, after saying goodbye to Siegwen, Qiuhe followed her out of the medical room. When she found Leosley again, the two were talking when Leosley asked the question that had just arisen, and also revealed some shocking news to Qiuhe.
"What? They're not cooperating anymore? Why?" Qiuhe was completely baffled. Leosley had suddenly and inexplicably proposed terminating the cooperation. Less than half an hour had passed since the cooperation was proposed, and Leosley had already pulled this stunt. Qiuhe racked his brains but couldn't understand why he was doing this.
“I think your suggestion is very reasonable. Overthrowing the previous ruler is just paving the way for the next tyrant. If we really want peace to come to this prison, then I must be here and become the rule. But for that reason, a king who can suppress the wolves must have solid methods and strength. I will use my own fists to smash all obstacles in my way.”
Upon hearing this explanation, Qiuhe finally understood what he was thinking. "What? Is that it, Leosley? Our cooperation won't prevent you from gaining sovereignty in your own way. Okay, it's my fault for not explaining it clearly to you from the beginning. Listen, Leosley, the content of our cooperation is that you are free to establish your authority in your own way."
"And I'll be responsible for providing you with financial resources from behind the scenes. Do you understand what I mean?" Leosley stopped walking, his eyes fixed intently on Qiuhe with a wary gaze.
"Cooperation, to put it bluntly, is about getting what you need from the other party. I can understand your behavior as an investment, but I want to know what you'll get in return for the resources you've invested in me."
"I'm afraid I can't answer that question. It's a complicated matter. Just know that when you're in power, I'll naturally have what I want. If you feel this partnership is unfair to me and makes you feel bad, then hurry up and become the warden. That way, I can get what I want sooner."
"Um........."
"Alright, I suppose I can believe that story. However, I do have one more question. You probably guessed that you haven't been in Mello Petersburg long, right? I know this place very well. It's already unbelievable that you weren't forced into hard labor, but I doubt you have any special permits on you."
"So, what do you mean by providing economic resources?" Qiuhe smiled inexplicably at this question and walked away. "I'll handle this myself. You just go do what you need to do. I'm going to the screw processing plant, I'll come find you in a bit."
Akikawa left his final farewell and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance. Leosley also went to the boxing arena, and just as he arrived, the closing bell for the boxing match rang.
"Match over! Everyone, let's give a round of applause to our new undefeated champion, Vikander Donaka!" As the referee called out the winner's name, applause and cheers erupted throughout the arena. Aside from those who had bet on the loser and lost large sums of money, almost everyone remained silent with grim faces.
"Huh? The new undefeated champion, just because he defeated a few small fry, he's already an undefeated champion? I didn't know this position had become so cheap."
Just as the crowd was cheering, a voice filled with arrogance and disdain came from the entrance of the passage. The crowd looked towards the entrance and saw that the newcomer was Leosley.
"Yo~. Isn't this our former undefeated champion, now my defeated foe? Hahaha, Leosley, I thought you'd learned your lesson and had some self-awareness, but judging from your expression, you haven't had enough of being beaten up, so you've come here looking for another beating?"
Upon hearing this, Leosley quickened his pace, took a running start, and leaped high into the air, landing instantly on the ring. His sharp, steel-like eyes were filled with both provocation and contempt. "What, you think your last victory was your glory? Ha, it was nothing more than a handout to a stray dog on the street. If you consider a victory begged for as glory..."
"Then I don't recommend beating you until you spit out this begged glory." Seeing the aura emanating from the two figures on the arena, like two bombs ready to explode at the slightest spark, the audience erupted once more. The arena's dome trembled in the darkness, and the referee's roar, carrying a frenzied atmosphere, swept across the entire arena.
"Wow! It seems our former undefeated champion, Leosley, is burning with rage over his previous fight! I wonder if he can avenge his defeat in this revenge match? Ladies and gentlemen! Cast your crucial vote for your favorite champion! Every bet you place will be a key factor in tipping the scales!"
As the referee's voice faded, the arena was instantly filled with endless clamor and shouts. "I bet 500 tickets on Vikan!" "600!" "900!" "1200!" "I bet 200 tickets on Leosley!" "100!" "300!" "400!" The crowd continued to raise the stakes, Vikan Donaka's bet had already surpassed 9,000, while Leosley's had stopped at 5,000.
Just as the betting reached its climax, a young voice boomed through the crowd like thunder: "I bet on Leosley, ten thousand licenses!" This loud, enormous bet, in the dark and damp underwater prison arena, was as conspicuous as a burst gate, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
When the crowd turned their attention to the source of the sound and discovered it was a child, a moment of stunned silence fell. Then, a wave of laughter erupted. However, just as the laughter was reaching its peak...
Qiuhe, however, pulled a large stack of vouchers from his bag and slammed them onto the gambling table. The crisp sound, like a heavy hammer blow, plunged the room into a deathly silence once more. But Qiuhe didn't stop there; he reached into his overflowing bag...
He pulled out another large stack of license tickets and slammed them onto the gambling table. He slowly raised his hands, grasped the two large stacks of tickets, and pushed them forward. "Twenty thousand license tickets!" Seeing Qiuhe bet twenty thousand license tickets, everyone present gasped. The organizers' eyes gleamed with greed. Just as the referee was about to say something...
Qiuhe, however, stepped forward and snatched the microphone, then lightly leaped onto the gambling table. "Ahem, ahem! Hey everyone here, listen up! You're all very confident that that idiot over there can beat the former winning streak champion, and that's why you've increased the bets to over a thousand tickets, right!? Fine! How about we play a game right here today?"
Every single one of us here! If even one person gets pinned down by that idiot over there, I'll pin them down tenfold!
