Chapter 279 - Began To Buy And Preparing To Leave
When Vincent returned to the Arena of Life and Death, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was much noisier than usual. It was as if someone wanted to cause trouble in the arena.
However, Vincent did not believe that anyone would dare to cause trouble in the Arena of Life and Death.
Therefore, Vincent, who was already too lazy to care about the Arena of Life and Death, did not have the interest to delve any further. He just went straight back into his room.
As soon as he entered the door, Vincent saw Irene pacing back and forth in the room with a worried look on her face. He immediately thought that something might have happened.
When Irene saw that Vincent had returned, she hurriedly walked forward and asked, "Why are you only back now? I heard that you killed Robert. Why didn"t you discuss it with me earlier? It"s too hasty to act like this. Half of the n.o.bles in the capital of Ultimate Evil have already found their way into the Arena of Life and Death. They want an explanation from you. I think you should think of a way to hide. Once they anger the Ultimate Evil Lord, I believe they won"t dare to say anything anymore!"
Vincent suddenly realized that the commotion in the arena was all because of him. Marcus had already warned him that after killing Robert, his death would definitely cause a series of chaos.
However, at that moment, Vincent had nothing to fear. He shook his head and said to Irene, "It doesn"t matter. Let them make a fuss! Right now, we should just focus on our own matters. Unless they make a fuss right in front of me, I can"t be bothered by them!"
After seeing Vincent"s confident expression, Irene did not say anything more. Instead, she changed the topic and said, "I"ve already bought the house. We can move out at any time. However, with your current reputation, once the two of us move out, it will be very dangerous! I"ve also exchanged the remaining dark crystals for the materials you need. I just don"t know why you spent all of our savings so extravagantly."
Vincent smiled and said, "Of course it"s to exchange for more dark crystals! And what I want to tell you is that the money you spent is not everything that I have. Are you interested in helping me buy more things?"
Vincent then took out all the dark crystal cards that he had collected from Robert"s house and handed them all to Irene.
"This, this!"
Irene looked at the dark crystal cards in her hands that were worth billions of dollars. She was shocked. She did not know what to say for a moment. Moreover, Vincent had actually asked her to use this money to buy things for him. What kind of things in the capital of Ultimate Evil could be bought with so much money?
"You, what exactly do you want me to buy?" asked Irene in shock.
Vincent lowered his head and said, "Aircraft, weapons, resources, and food. In short, you can buy all the things that are circulating in the market. The more, the better. Next, we have to make plans to leave the capital of Ultimate Evil!"
After hearing that, Irene nodded with excitement. She said to Vincent with joy, "So you have a plan! Don"t worry, I know what to do next. I will focus on purchasing everything I need to escape and all the resources I need to rebuild my home! You said that the Spirit Race"s world has been destroyed. When the two of us return, we must rebuild the world to look like how it was at its peak!"
Vincent could not help but let out a long sigh and said slowly with some emotion, "You probably don"t know how glorious the Spirit Race was at its peak. With just the two of us, it will be very difficult for the Spirit Race to return to the past!"
Irene pulled Vincent"s hand and said gently, "Don"t be afraid! As long as we are here, the Spirit Race will prosper and become strong again sooner or later!"
Vincent looked at Irene quietly. He was hesitating in his heart whether to tell her the truth about the destruction of the Spirit Race.
Although Irene was the last bloodline of the Spirit Race, she was able to live and grow up after all. It was all thanks to the Ultimate Evil Lord for adopting her back then. Even though Irene was extremely disappointed with the Ultimate Evil Lord, she had not reached the stage where he had become her sworn enemy.
If Irene was trapped to choose between her race and the Ultimate Evil Lord"s kindness, it would not only be a blow to her but would also cause her endless torture.
"Vincent, what are you thinking about?"
Irene could not help but ask curiously when she saw Vincent deep in thought.
Vincent came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Nothing, I just suddenly found out how the Spirit Race was destroyed today. It turns out that it was all caused by the leader of the Demon Race, Gajero. I will settle the score with him sooner or later!"
"Gajero? He"s the person that the Ultimate Evil Lord hates the most. Perhaps we can borrow the power of the evil lord to seek revenge on Gajero!" said Irene.
Vincent frowned and asked in return, "Gajero is the person that the Ultimate Evil Lord hates the most?"
This was not the first time that Vincent had heard of such news, but he still could not understand why the two high-level creatures that could destroy other worlds together back then would let their relations.h.i.+p fall apart completely. They would not contact each other even if they were dying of old age.
If Gajero was still in contact with the Ultimate Evil Lord, then Vincent believed that the Ultimate Evil Lord would have recognized him the moment he set foot in the capital of Ultimate Evil. He would then tear him into pieces. After all, Vincent still had the treasure left behind by Gajero, the Cup of Fate that had a fatal restraining effect on demons!
However, in order to ensure that nothing would go wrong, Vincent still wanted to inquire about the hatred between the Ultimate Evil Lord and Gajero.
Irene could sense Vincent"s curiosity. She then said, "There were a few times when the Ultimate Evil Lord got drunk. He then told me that Gajero was the guy he hated the most because he was greedy and did not keep his word. Moreover, he had no loyalty to his friends. If he ever sees Gajero again in the future, he will definitely crush that b*stard to pieces!"
After hearing that, Vincent could roughly guess what had happened. It must have been when the Ultimate Evil Lord was collecting Black Hole treasures with Gajero. It was probably because of the unequal distribution of the spoils with Gajero having the upper hand that caused the Ultimate Evil Lord to hold a grudge against him. They then parted ways and the Ultimate Evil Lord never wanted to see him again.
At the same time, this was also good news for Vincent. In the future, if there was a day when he faced Gajero directly, the Ultimate Evil Lord might be a chess piece that he could use.
Vincent suddenly had an inspiration. He turned to Irene and said, "Oh right, help me find out if there is anyone who can build a teleportation array or a teleportation scroll. It would be best to keep it a secret!"
Irene nodded. She never asked Vincent why he did these things because she believed that everything Vincent did was for the two of them to leave the capital of Ultimate Evil and for them to live happily together.
However, it was not the same for Vincent. Although he had a sense of responsibility to take Irene away, he had never thought of living together with her.
In order not to let the alien races know about the existence of humans, Vincent had no choice but to pretend to be a spirit. After leaving the world, he still had to explain himself to Irene.
Vincent thought to himself with antic.i.p.ation, "She is now the only bloodline of the Spirit Race! In fact, when she returns to the Spirit Race, doesn"t that mean that she will directly become the ruler of the Spirit Race?"
