Chapter 261: Cosmo’s Influence
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When the Buried City mbers heard that soone had completed the King of the Land mission, they started speculating about who was the one who killed the S-rank Mutant T-rex.
“Is there any doubt about this?! Cosmo must’ve been the one who killed the T-rex!”
“Cosmo is mighty!”
“Not necessarily. I heard Cosmo wasn’t the first to enter the mission’s final stage.”
“Tsk! Soone else entered the final stage before Cosmo? Wasn’t Cosmo in the lead before that?!”
“We still don’t know yet. The people who relayed the mission’s progress and information didn’t have enough points to enter the final stage.”
“I think Stuart, King Guo, was the one who killed the S-rank beast. That guy is cunning and rushed to the front to receive a steady stream of points at the start. Then he just sat back and saved his strength later on. Although I despise his way of doing things, it suits the King of the Land mission.
“Anyway, the ones who entered the final stage are Cosmo’s team, Stuart’s team, Sabian’s team, and Telmore’s team. Oh, also the old beggar and Na Stolen.”
“What? Na Stolen and old beggar also made it to the final stage? That’s unbelievable!”
…
People crowded Buried City’s number one casino. Many Buried City mbers knew the casino had taken bets for the King of the Land mission, so they went to place their bets.
Everyone outside the casino could hear the commotion inside.
A casino staff mber shouted with all his might, “Place your bets now! There are three minutes left before the bets close!”
“I’ll bet 1,000 points on Cosmo!”
“I’ll add 500 more points to my bet!”
…
Cosmo had the most support based on the odds, and the one with the least was Na Stolen. Amidst the clamor, soone made an unusual bet, “I’ll bet 2,000 points on Na Stolen!”
The person was a middle-aged man with sunglasses and exquisitely styled hair. The staff mber greeted the stylish man smilingly, “You’re very bold, sir. Please wait a mont while I register your bet.”
Although that’s what the staff mber said, he thought the stylish man was just a wealthy idi*t. Soon after registering the man’s bet, the staff mber smiled and returned the mbership card to the stylish man.
“Here’s your mbership card, sir. I wish you the best of luck. Thank you for supporting our casino!”
The stylish man nodded and turned to leave.
However, a kind-looking older man with bright eyes holding a cane stopped the stylish man. He asked curiously, “Excuse , sir. May I know why you bet on Na Stolen? After all, 2,000 points are no small amount.”
The stylish man looked at the kind man and thought he looked familiar. He stopped and said, “You look familiar. Besides, the bet is about to close, so I might as well tell you my reason for betting on Na Stolen.
“Everyone knows which five teams made it to the final stage, but I’ve just received the latest first-hand news. Stuart, Telmore, Cosmo, and Sabian weren’t the first to enter the mission’s core. Therefore, we can prove that Na Stolen was the first to enter the core using a simple elimination process.”
The stylish man paused and continued with certainty, “Na Stolen ranked last when the first and second stages ended, but he was the first to enter the core. That is enough to prove how strong this person is.”
The kind man nodded and stared expectantly at the stylish man.
The stylish man paused again to comb his exquisite hair. “However, that doesn’t necessarily an he killed the S-rank beast. Still, most have never completed this mission, including the other four.”
“Therefore, I firmly believe Na Stolen was the one who completed this mission based on my hunch and what I said.”
The kind man clapped his hands and praised, “What a beautiful analysis!”
So who heard the analysis could not help but say regretfully, “I would have bet a little on Na Stolen if I had known about that earlier.”
The kind man bid farewell to the stylish man and exited the casino smilingly while leaning on his walking stick.
…
anwhile, Buried City’s mission desk had beco a hangout spot for the city’s mbers. People filled the mission desk inside and out. The mbers were fortunate to witness who had completed the King of the Land mission.
As everyone looked forward to it, Sabian and Telmore’s team mbers walked toward the mission desk. Even though they looked confident, they were not energetic.
The other Buried City mbers tactfully made way for the mbers who participated in the final stage and praised them.
“Good job there, guys!”
“Tell us what happened in the core later!”
“We’re proud of you!”
“I told you! Sabian and Telmore’s team were the ones who completed the mission!” A tall and thin man proudly said, as if he was the God of predictions.
However, a gentleman beside him did not like what the thin man said. He snorted and said, “Wipe that smug smile off your face. Anyone with high rankings can get points from a mission of this caliber.
“Then they can co to the mission desk and submit the mission to obtain their corresponding points.”
…
Everyone was in heated discussion as the two teams handed over their mbership cards to the manager at the mission desk.
However, Stallone said sothing that destroyed the hope of those who supported Sabian and Telmore’s teams. “I’ve settled your points. Thank you for your participation, and I hope you can achieve better results next ti.”
The crowd beca restless and stepped forward, bombarding the participants with questions.
“Sabian, who killed the S-rank beast?!”
“Telmore, tell us what happened!”
…
The mbers of Sabian and Telmore’s teams smiled bitterly and shook their heads, indicating they were not clear about the situation either. Imdiately after, they left the noisy mission desk.
At that mont, soone in the crowd shouted, “Hey, Stuart’s team is here, and Cosmo is behind them!”
As soon as the others heard this, they turned to look toward the mission desk entrance. They were waiting for the precious mont to witness a miracle.
“Cosmo is finally here. I placed a big bet on him just now!”
“ too!”
“Even if many teams worked together to complete the mission, I firmly believe Cosmo was the one who killed the S-rank beast in the end!”
“King Gou is the best at taking advantage of others under such circumstances.”
…
Everyone was having a heated discussion when Moss and Landis appeared and approached the mission desk.
