However, I refuse!

"But now I don't have the bargaining chip to continue challenging Kurami..."

Stephanie Dora said a little depressed.

However, at this moment, Li Hao in front of him suddenly grabbed her head and touched her. The set of movements was so proficient that she didn't react at all.

"Stephen, Stephen, Stephen~, what you really need is not chips, but... the hunger that belongs to a gambler. Have you ever seen a real gambler?"

Li Hao smiled and said: "Real gamblers, their hunger and thirst for victory can reach the point of insanity, they know that no matter how much they pay, how many times they fail, as long as they can go to the gambling table, as long as they If they can still cast their own chips, they will not stop, because once they win, the benefits brought by the victory far exceed the losses caused by these failures..."

Isn't the desire to win enough...

Stephanie Dora looked at her hands.

"As for the bargaining chips, indeed, in your capacity, there is absolutely no way, and there is no reason to challenge Kurami again..."

it is as expected....

"However, we can use other things as chips for the challenge..."

Li Hao smiled charmingly and said.

"other things?"

Stephanie Dora looked at Li Hao strangely. If the reason why the other party agreed in the previous game was because they could get what they wanted to know in this game, but now, what do I have when I have nothing? Can the other party agree to the challenge?

"That's right, you know, your grandfather left a large legacy for the future of the human species...and this legacy, why can't it be used as a bargaining chip..."

Li Hao said with a smile, then pointed to Stephanie Dora.

"Eastern Union..."

Chapter 450 Aggression and Challenge

"Ohhhhh—! Oh my god! Unbelievable! Unbelievable!!!! Does such a thing actually exist!?"

Inside the palace of Elchea, Blank, Kurami, and Faile sat around in the main hall and exchanged memories of what happened during this period of time through a covenant.

"What's there, did you find...Brother?"

Sitting next to Sora, Shiro looked at Sora with a question mark on his face, who was trying to poke his right hand into his temple to perform live performances. What exactly is the picture seen by the duplicate personality and the inferred result, as for Kurami and Mayfair, they are also a little puzzled about what Sora is excited about, looking at Sora with zzzy faces.

"substitute.."

Kong swallowed his throat and said slowly.

"Brother...you said...what!"

Hearing the answer, Shiro's eyes lit up and he looked at Sora, and his originally calm voice became unsettled.

"Stand-in! There really is a stand-in! Bai!"

Sora said excitedly.

"Er... what are you guys talking about? What...'substitute'? Could it be that you have guessed the ability of the foolish king's granddaughter and the behind-the-scenes!?"

Kurami was confused by the conversation between the two in front of him, but it sounded like the brother and sister in front of him knew what this ability that only humans could use was.

"The so-called substitute is an ability that appeared in a comic in our original world. It has various forms and usage methods. You can understand it as an existence similar to a ghost. Ordinary people have no way to see it." Substitutes' but 'substitutes' can use their abilities on other people."

The smile on Sora's face was undisguised.

"But from Mayfair's perspective, it's clear that this rule is also valid for other races..."

"Then, what is the ability of this 'substitute'? Are all the 'substitute' abilities the same?"

Hearing Sora's description, Kurami couldn't help but get a little excited. This alone is enough to do a lot of beneficial things.

"No, everyone's 'stand-in' abilities are different. As far as we know, the more powerful abilities are time and space... Maybe you don't understand, but Miss Mayfair next to you should know."

Sora pointed to the elves beside Kurami.

"Time stops, time speeds up, time deletes, time goes back..."

Bai Xiaoxiao clenched her hands tightly and said that she couldn't restrain the excitement in her heart.

"I know, I know, but... this is already a power beyond magic, can it really be done?"

Although Mayfair, who had been listening in, understood the abilities mentioned by Blank, but as far as she knew so far, there was no magic that could do this.

Beyond..Magic..

This.....

how can that be! ?

Kurami looked at her best friend in disbelief.

Although she doesn't know how many times she has such negative thoughts about being herself, she can't say it at this moment, because these abilities can already be said to exist beyond magic. It is not already able to completely match other races....

Thinking of this, Kurami hurriedly asked the Blank brothers and sisters in front of him: "Can we also have this ability? This...is called the ability of 'stand-in'."

"It's a pity, no."

Kong shook his head and broke Kurami's fantasy: "If you want to, the ability to obtain a 'stand-in' must be awakened innately, but obviously, the human race in this world does not have the conditions for awakening."

"But if that's the case, how did that Yu Wang's granddaughter get this ability?"

Kurami said disapprovingly.

"I haven't finished talking yet~, don't worry, Your Majesty Kurami...because the second method I'm going to talk about to awaken a double is to acquire this ability the day after tomorrow."

Kong Xiemei smiled charmingly, while Bai beside him said silently.

"arrow."

"arrow?"

"Once stabbed by an arrow, you can awaken the ability of a double, and this arrow that can create a 'double' is in that person's hand, and it is also because of the 'arrow' that inspired Stephanie Dora's double, That one is the most useless... no, it should be said to be the most useful substitute, as long as she wants, she can spy on us anytime..."

Sora squinted his eyes, and the figure in the hospital gown gradually appeared in his mind, and at the same time he finally understood why he heard the sound of glass breaking that day.

but..

This is not good news for them, after all, the ability to collect information at any time is the most indispensable ability in this world, and the most important thing is to peep anytime, anywhere, isn't it...

"Brother, are you thinking of something bad?"

Bai squinted at Sora, who already showed a foolish expression.

"Ahem, Bai, what are you talking about? Brother, I have no idea...haha, hahaha."

Kong coughed and said with some embarrassment: "But to get to the point, knowing this is not a good thing for us. It can even be said that we need to prepare more things."

"Because, we don't know what that person's double is... 'unknown' is the biggest fear."

Bai bit his finger and said.

The one in the hospital gown...

She also has memories of the person in the hospital gown. Although the cloned personality of 'Kong' was dominating her body at that time, she could still see the person in front of her, who was wearing a hospital gown and looked very thin people...

In fact, if it wasn't for Blank's intentional confession before leaving, she would never have noticed that the person was standing behind Stephanie Dora...

"Don't worry, in fact, I have already used that question to push her to the opposite of the human species. Even if the power behind it is strong, there is no way or reason to challenge us."

Seeing Blank showing a sad face, Mayfair said.

For the entire human race, the current Stephanie Dora is undoubtedly a betrayer of the human race. Coupled with the things her grandfather did, I believe she will not be able to continue living in Elchea now, let alone Challenge Kurami again.

However, facing Mayfair's words, Kong sighed and shook his head: "So, this is the main reason why we find it difficult to deal with..."

Mayfair tilted her head in confusion: "Eh? Why?"

In her opinion, isn't the game between Blank and that person a battle for the throne of the human species? If the value of Stephanie Dora is completely removed from the other party's hands, isn't it equivalent to declaring their victory in disguise?Even with such a powerful ability, the covenant has made it very clear that it cannot be used on other people.

"Let's put it this way, for example, you have a total of 90 chances. If a coin is flipped tails once without cheating, it will be tails the second time, and it will be the same result until No.[-] nine times. So what do you think of the hundredth time?"

"...It must be positive."

Kurami thought for a while and said.

It's just that the same side is the same 99 times in a row and it's not cheating. This is absolutely impossible. Even if it happens, it is absolutely impossible to be so lucky this last time.

"So, this is the psychology of a gambler."

Kong said slowly: "Actually, the answer is 'unknown', but we subconsciously thought that the coin would show tails so we made an affirmative answer. Similarly, we can also use this gambler's psychology to gradually give Stephanie Dora hopes, and then bit by bit more important information, and even, can use her 'stand-in' as a bet."

As Sora spoke, he looked at the fourth article of the covenant recorded on the phone.

"Anything can be bet. Including life..."

Bai said slowly.

"That's right, if something like life can be used as a bet, then a 'substitute' can also be used as a bet, just like a gambler who has nothing in a casino borrows chips from the casino, even if he knows that when he returns the chips The interest will be doubled, but the loan will still be the same."

Sora clutched his forehead and said in distress.

"And now, this method has obviously been completely blocked by your approach, Miss Mayfair."

In fact, he didn't expect Mayfair to be able to do this in order to keep Kurami's throne, but this was also his mistake. After all, the simulated personality with "White" shouldn't make such a mistake, but what he didn't expect was that, This elf actually took the initiative to block 'Bai' from taking this step on his own initiative.

Should I change the attribute that I originally defined as Lily's natural dullness to become Lily's natural black?

"Well, what does it matter.... It's not a big deal to just give up this path. Mayfair also has good intentions..."

Seeing this, Kurami tried to defend her best friend.

"Your Majesty Kurami, are you trying to cover up your friend's mistake?"

Kong said jokingly: "Some mistakes can be fatal after they are made, and we, who are already at a disadvantage, can't even make such a small mistake."

"Fatal? Why is it fatal? Do you want to say that the princess has the possibility to challenge us again?"

Kurami didn't understand that Stephanie Dora, who has completely become the public enemy of the human species, can survive in Elchea is a question. How can she still have the opportunity to challenge her?Besides, she can use this reason to refuse at any time.

"With this kind of thinking, then you will always be just a "successor" instead of a "hungry person"..."

As if he had seen through what she was thinking, Sora sighed a little.

"Ah."

Bai nodded.

"So! So! Tell me! What reason does this foolish king's granddaughter have to challenge me again?"

Kurami couldn't help being a little annoyed when she heard the words that she couldn't understand at all. After all, she is also the king of the human species. Is it really good to say that.

"Who said she wanted to challenge you?"

Sora smiled contemptuously.

"What if she plans to invade?"

Chapter 450 Six Legacy of the Former King

aggression?

Hearing Sora's words, Kurami laughed as if hearing a joke.

Stephanie Dora is nothing more than a descendant of a foolish king, and she has no territory, and the only kingdom of the human race, Elchea, is still in her own hands. How can she invade?

Moreover, even aggression by force is impossible, even with the power called 'stand-in', the covenant is impossible for them to succeed.

"I remember, it seems that after we met, many impossibilities appeared, but what is the final result?"

Kong said with a half-smile.

"It's different.."

Kurami denied it.

"Because the opponent doesn't have enough chips to launch an aggression?"

"Ah."

Kurami nodded.

"But, what if I say yes?"

Sora shook his head, then flipped out the map of the human race Elchea's former territory in the phone and put it on the table. Although Kurami didn't know what this little black box was, he also knew that it was Elchea. Chia's map, and most of the territory on this map has been marked out.

"You mean the Eastern Union? Even if it's a joke, there should be a limit..."

Kurami looked at the map, and suddenly thought of that stupid former king in his mind, but Sora ignored Kurami's words and pointed to an unknown place on the map.
