Chapter 568 Helping the old gambler quit addiction

"You two Destroyer Deity-level old guys can't be broke, right?!"

Hearing William's words, Osric felt even more insulted.

Moreover, he had a gambling nature, never backing down from a bet.

Besides, Alice had already mentioned she saw something alive inside, and her tone and expression didn't seem fake.

1500 energy crystals wasn't a significant amount, and even if Alice's action was a deliberate performance to pretend she could see through the stone, losing this amount of energy crystals was still within an acceptable range.

Most importantly, Osric didn't dare to refuse William.

Without doing anything, William had already frightened them into inaction.

The consequences of refusing him were unimaginable!

"I'll take the bet. I do have that amount of energy crystals," Osric tried to appear calm.

William wasted no time, a dagger suddenly appearing in his hand, and he began to slice the stone like peeling an apple. The stone chips fell away, and in the blink of an eye, the black stone was reduced to the size of an egg, but still, nothing was inside.

Leander had never seen anyone cut a stone like peeling an apple.

"It's almost gone!" William said, then sliced the stone in half with the dagger.

"Be careful, slow down!" Alice stared intently at the stone in William's hand. She could clearly see a golden, glowing child inside. Wasn't William's cut going to slice that child in half?

But William ignored her, cutting straight through the middle.

As the blade fell, the stone suddenly burst into a dazzling golden light, illuminating the entire courtyard.

Osric shouted excitedly, "It's out! It really is!"

His old friend quickly tugged at his sleeve and transmitted his thoughts, "Are you crazy? If it really is out, then you're slapping his face."

William had said, if a treasure emerged, it would belong to them.

But the aura released by William exerted an absolute pressure on them. If a treasure really emerged, should they accept it or not?

If they really took it, slapping William's face today, could they even survive after leaving the Gem Exchange?

Osric's face turned even uglier.

In a place like the Divine Realm, the principle of "might makes right" is truly demonstrated to the fullest.

Facing a powerhouse stronger than oneself, offending them usually means certain death.

Reasonable?

Might makes right!!

"How can it be empty?" Alice stared at the stone shell in William's hand, clearly hollow. After that burst of golden light dispersed, there was nothing left.

It was a letdown!

Alice felt like she bought a watermelon, and upon cutting it open, not to mention finding watermelon flesh, there weren't even any seeds, just the watermelon rind...

Holding the stone shell, William looked at Osric and the others, smiling, "I wonder if that burst of golden light counts as a treasure?"

Osric tugged at his beard hard and chuckled dryly, "Of course not!"

They had indeed only seen a burst of golden light and hadn't sensed any special aura.

It seemed Alice might have been mistaken.

Perhaps there was something alive inside the stone a long time ago, but now it must have died long ago, leaving only a trace of gas, utterly useless.

How could that be considered a treasure?

"1500 energy crystals!" William said with a smile and an open hand.

Osric stiffened, embarrassed, "Please wait, my companion will deliver the energy crystals today."

William chuckled, "Are you out of money?"

A Destroyer Deity, unable to produce even fifteen hundred energy crystals.

William genuinely laughed.

Gamblers are always broke!

Osric adjusted his mindset and naturally pulled out a divine sword, saying, "This is the Legendary-level divine sword, Shadowfang Blade, worth at least one hundred thousand energy crystals. You don't have to worry about me not being able to produce the energy crystals."

Alice curiously looked at the divine sword in Osric's hand, murmuring softly, "Is this really worth one hundred thousand energy crystals?"

Her voice was not loud, but to Osric's ears, it felt like mockery.

"Are you questioning the value of my divine sword, Shadowfang Blade?"

Alice, curious, summoned the Sword of Soulbreaker and quietly asked, "Then how much is my Sword of Soulbreaker worth?"

As soon as the Sword of Soulbreaker was revealed, the Shadowfang Blade in Osric's hand and the sword in Leander's hand started to quiver immediately.

Leander could distinctly feel that the divine sword in his hand was humbly seeking favor with the sword in Alice's hand!

Indeed, it was humbly seeking favor with the sword in Alice's hand.

"Sword of Soulbreaker?" Leander couldn't help but take a deep breath and asked, "Could it be that you've found the grave of William the Obliterator?"

"Grave?" Alice turned to look at William.

Isn't he alive and well?

"He's still alive?" Leander, who greatly admired the legendary William the Obliterator, excitedly asked, "Is William the Obliterator still alive, and you are his disciple?"

Alice didn't answer but countered, "What I'm asking now is the value of this sword."

Not denying is as good as confirming?

Leander stared intently at the Sword of Soulbreaker in Alice's hand and said, "If that really is the sword of William the Obliterator, how could its value be measured in energy crystals?"

Value?

The personal sword of a legendary figure like William the Obliterator, along with the anomaly just now, Leander was very aware of the significance of this sword.

However, Osric felt his face was on the line and said, "William the Obliterator is a legendary figure from hundreds of thousands of years ago.No one truly knows the extent of his strength or what power level he was at,he might just be all bark and no bite. As for the sword in this lady's hand, it indeed is extremely powerful. But what we are discussing now is my sword, Leander, does my Shadowfang Blade still worth ten thousand energy crystals?"

William actually wanted to cause some mischief, not wanting Alice to have it too easy, and also aiming to trick Osric. That's why he deliberately stored the object inside the stone into his spatial storage ring while cutting it.

As for Osric, William felt that this guy must lose in his own script's character setting!

"How about this, you say your sword is very good, let's have my wife's sword clash with your sword. If your sword doesn't break, the Sword of Soulbreaker will be yours." William's eyes narrowed slightly, his smile as warm as a spring breeze.

Such an honest and simple young man, what ill intentions could he possibly have?

"Clash swords?" Osric said, "Although my Shadowfang Blade is not an extremely powerful artifact, its quality is not bad either..."

He then stared at the Sword of Soulbreaker in Alice's hand.

Somewhat covetous!

Of course, he could also see that the sword in Alice's hand was of higher quality, but as to how much higher, he didn't know.

"If you don't use energy or secret techniques, I'm willing to take that bet!" Osric, after all, was at the level of a Destroyer Deity. It was worth a shot. As long as his Shadowfang Blade didn't shatter after clashing, he could obtain the legendary Sword of Soulbreaker...

Worth it!

William came today specifically to help the old gambler quit gambling, and he nodded, saying, "Of course, we are merely comparing the material of the swords. Your sword is so good, it surely shouldn't break just upon contact, right?"
