Chapter 374 Wager His Life
Indeed, Perrin’s men must have known that Gerald had come here. Since he hadn’t appeared, it was very normal for them to use Dragon Bones to lure him out.
When Gerald heard the people in the bar talking, he began to hesitate about whether to participate in this competition!
The competition was also the topic of the bar tonight. After all, the prize money of 100 million lucs was not a small amount.
After work, when Gerald went to the lounge to change clothes, Claude also leaned over and said, “Boss, you have heard what the customers have been talking about, right?”
Gerald nodded.
“Do you want Theo to participate? Don’t you need the bones? Although it is very likely to be a setup by Perrin’s men!” Claude said.
Obviously, he also saw it.
They used five Dragon Bones as bargaining chips at once. This was obviously to attract Gerald or Gerald’s people over so that Perrin’s men could locate Gerald!
Franklin was in Sin City, and Perrin worked with Blood Lotus. And now, since it was the Northern District, the Holy Lord of the district was also directly involved in this.
It could be said that the power pooled in the competition was considerable. The man sent by Perrin was a super expert and ranked 6th place on the Sun List. He was extremely powerful.
The Holy Lord of the Northern District was also a super expert. Along with Franklin, who was going to enter the super level… And there might be other experts…
If Gerald had regained his Vital Energy, he might not be so afraid, but the problem was that he
hadn’t at all.
Gerald waved his hand and said, “Let’s talk about it when we get back!”
Theo was already waiting for them outside. When they reached home, the house was quiet. Roger and his wife were still in a coma, and Jenna had fallen asleep.
Gerald called them to the lobby on the second floor. After sitting down, he told them about the news in the bar at night.
After Theo heard this, he looked at Gerald and said, “I will participate in it on your behalf and help you get the bones back!”
Theo himself was Watchman No. 15. Normally, Watchmen would not appear on the Moon List unless they were exposed. If Theo was exposed, he might be the match of the top ten on the list!
If Theo participated, he was very likely to win.
“No!” Valery frowned and said, “This is obviously a setup by Perrin’s men to make us show ourselves.”
“It doesn’t matter. My appearance shouldn’t have been exposed. They might know Boss, but they might not know me. Five Dragon Bones will greatly help Boss. I think it is worth a shot.” Theo
insisted.
“Hear me out!” At this time, Gerald let out a breath and said, “I … plan to risk it!”
“Huh?” Theo’s eyes lit up and he asked, “You will let me participate?”
Gerald shook his head and said, “No, I plan to participate myself.”
This was the result of Gerald’s consideration for the whole night.
Gerald’s words made everyone’s expressions change. Valery looked at Gerald and said, “You haven’t regained any of your Vital Energy. You must be crazy! Moreover, Franklin knows your appearance. If you show up, they will definitely make a move on you.”
“I’ve thought about it carefully,” Gerald muttered. “I still want to continue testing the method Milo told me to recover my Vital Energy. You always go easy on me when you attack me. And you are also worried that I will be in danger, so there will always be someone tagging along. My life is never at risk. I want to wager my life this time.”
“I don’t think so!” Just as Gerald finished speaking, Valery said calmly.
Gerald smiled at Valery and said, “Are you worried about me, Dr. Manning?”
“Don’t talk nonsense at this time,” Valery said. “Your body is in good condition now. It is only a matter of time before your Vital Energy recovers. There is no need to risk your life!”
Gerald shook his head and said, “I have to. We have been here for long, but we haven’t heard anything about Carolyn and Jacob. I can only be more worried every day. So, I have to take a risk. Don’t worry. Before I go, I will definitely disguise myself. It’ll be like signing a death warrant once I go in there. Also, I will not expose myself directly to a few super experts.”
