Chapter 58 The Bet of the Demigods

The summoning ceremony has begun.

First, there was the Spiritual Creation Spell. This time, Xing Tianyu clearly felt that the spiritual power required to activate the Ignaz magic array was far greater than the Graham magic array before. The three of them chanted the Spiritual Creation Spell for more than ten minutes, and the runes on the huge magic array were all lit up. Although spiritual power is essentially difficult to detect, extracting so much spiritual power at one time still made the three of them feel very weak at this moment, especially Xing Tianyu. As the summoner, he could feel an empty feeling in his body as if he was about to be drained, and a feeling of extreme fatigue that could not help but come to his heart.

Xing Tianyu sighed in his heart. Even if he had strengthened it with the activated blood, it would be a bit forced to summon a demigod - even the weaker father-blood demigod.

Holding the feeling of weakness, Xing Tianyu recited a spell to summon Baros.

【The powerful existence from Atlansteis】

【The blood of gods, the outstanding craftsman, the greedy gambler, the extraordinary fantasy creature】

[I welcome you with kindness, I praise you with prayer, I ask you for help with you with difficulties]

[In the name of the contract you signed with our tribe and ancient times]

[I pray that you will come to this world].

As Xing Tianyu recited the summoning spell, a light spot suddenly appeared in the center of the Ignaz magic circle. All the energy in the magic circle immediately condensed towards the light spot. The light spot became larger and larger, and gradually turned into a light ball. The light ball was constantly rotating, and an energy vortex appeared quickly. This was completely different from the crack that had been opened before. The vortex was crazy about absorbing the energy in the surrounding air, which made the three of them feel more and more weak. Ning Wenrui even half-kneeled on the ground. Xing Tianyu's hands holding the Book of Another World kept trembling, as if they were about to fall down at any time. He forced his teeth to persist, thinking that Qin Ming, Qin Ming, I have sacrificed my best to save it. If it doesn't work this time, I will be considered to have done my best. Then don't blame me.

Finally, the vortex calmed down, and a passage leading to a completely unknown other world appeared in the vortex.

A tall figure walked out slowly from the passage. He looked almost no different from humans. He was wearing a gorgeous golden robe and holding a book in his hand. He looked like a human scholar, but only a pair of golden ram horns on his head made him look a little magical.

His face looked very handsome and his expression was calm. Looking at the smiles on the three of them, it was as if the three of them were old friends he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Good morning, all the summoners, I am the son of Barros, the god of craftsmen, Barreliak - willing to serve you."

Thank God, finally came out! Xing Tianyu saw Barros coming out and immediately relaxed his body. The teleportation channel finally could not be maintained anymore. The energy collapsed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it turned into an energy ball. The energy ball became a point, and then suddenly disappeared. Even the runes on the summoning array completely dimmed.

The three of them were all gasping for a long time, as if they had been holding their breath for a while. Barros seemed to feel the weakness of the three of them. They waited patiently for a while until they recovered a little. Then they asked politely: "So, what do you want me to serve when you summon me here?" Barros said with a smile, just like the waiter waiting for the master's order. This gentle attitude made the three of them feel relieved involuntarily. It seems that this demigod is indeed easy to talk to.

"Well, Barros, right? First of all, thank you for accepting our summons. This is the thing. We need your help to repair something. If you can, we will help lift a curse."

Xing Tianyu said, pointing to the broken statue of Qin Ming next to the summoning array. The statue had been filled with flour by three people to identify it. It was white, and with the broken head and arms, it looked very miserable.

Na Baros glanced at the statue and a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.

He walked slowly over and circled around the stone statue, "Is it a petrification curse? Uh, and it was broken. Oh, you were really too careless. If it was just a petrification curse, it would not be difficult to remove it, but now you have broken the statue, so it will be a little trouble."

The three of them didn't say anything, and this matter was indeed a bit embarrassing. On the other hand, Xing Tianyu vaguely felt that the other party seemed to be controlling them. From the other party's tone, he felt that the other party seemed to have a way to solve it, because Barros only said it was a bit troublesome, but he didn't say it couldn't be done.

Sure enough, Baros smiled slightly, "But this is not too difficult for me. I can repair the statue, and lift the curse on your friends, and resurrect your friends."

As soon as he said this, Xiao Zhen immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Xing Tianyu was not that optimistic. It was impossible for the other party to not want to pay.

Sure enough, Barros changed his voice, "But, to repair such a statue and resurrect him, it will take my great power and resources. So what are the few respected summoners going to use to pay the bill?"

"We have an invisibility cloak." Xiao Zhen said, regardless of Ning Wenrui's resentful gaze, he pulled the invisibility cloak out of the iron box.

He shook it and showed it to Barros.

Barros nodded without comment, "Well, a little funny thing, but this is not of much value to me. I think I may need something more practical."

Xiao Zhen was a little embarrassed, "But we have nothing very valuable except this. Why don't we buy you an IPAD?"

Then Baros had no interest in Xiao Zhen's IPAD. "This kind of thing cannot work in our world, so please forgive me for not accepting it. Besides, you are not without something more valuable. In fact, I have already thought about the reward."

"What is that?" Xing Tianyu asked in a deep voice.

"Your life span," Barros said with a wink.

"Life life?" Ning Wenrui asked hostilely.

"That's right," Barros explained with a smile, "Your friend, looks very young. Let's assume that he still has 60 years of life. If I save him, it means that I have given him 60 years of life. As a reward, you only need to give me 60 years of life. If three people, each person will give me 20 years of life. What do you think?"

Xing Tianyu was a little unbelievable, "Can this lifespan be given?"

"Oh, of course, for us demigods, lifespan is like currency."

"But can you live forever?"

"No, no, immortality can be achieved, but immortality is impossible. Even gods cannot avoid death. What's more, we demigods, most of my life span has been used, and it can be said that my life is not long, so if I have the opportunity to get some life span to make up for it, I would be very happy."

"Then how much life do you have?"

"Haha, not much, only more than three thousand years left."

(Damn, it’s not long after more than three thousand years of life. Should you be so pretentious?) Xing Tianyu couldn’t help but complain in his heart, but Xing Tianyu knew that it was meaningless to say this, and the other party would definitely not work in vain.

However, it took twenty years to treat Qin Ming, but Xing Tianyu could not accept it. After all, he and Qin Ming were just friends. As Ning Wenrui said, it would be fine to lend him money, and it would be fine to help him fight. However, it would be a bit too much to pay for a 20-year life for an ordinary friend.

"No, no matter what you think, I will never break my life for twenty years to save Qin Ming." Ning Wenrui was the first to shout.

And this time, even Xiao Zhen did not say that Ning Wenrui was not wrong. Even he could not accept such a thing.

Xing Tianyu saw the reactions of the two, but shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't pay such a price. Is there any other choice?"

"Well, that's it," Barros was not mindful, thinking for a while, "There's no other way, why not do this? Let's take a gamble. If you win, I will help you resurrect your friends for free, but if you lose, I can still resurrect your friends, but each of you will give me forty years of life."

This - Xing Tianyu thought to himself, this is not as good as the last one. He has a lifespan of forty years. Now he is over twenty years old. If he takes another forty years, wouldn’t he become an old man in his sixties? How many years can he live?

This time he didn't look at his two companions, and shook his head and said, "No, we are just mortals, but you are a demigod. We bet with you that there is no winning or losing. This is not as good as the price last time."

Barros still smiled and nodded very seriously, "This is not unreasonable. If a normal bet is indeed a bit unfair, it would be better to do this. Each of you three can challenge me once, and you can choose the way you want to bet, but you must ensure fairness. And as long as one of you wins me, then even if you win, what, this is fair enough. After all, you have three chances, and you will win once."

This - Xing Tianyu couldn't help but feel moved. This seems to be quite cost-effective. They have three chances to win, and they can choose the way to bet by themselves. This advantage is too great. The three of them can even choose to use computer games. Even if Barros is a demigod, they can't even play computer games without a teacher. But is this really wise to bet with a demigod? I'm afraid that this Barros made a bet so confidently, for no reason.

When Xing Tianyu felt a little entangled in his heart, Xiao Zhen shouted: "We have bet!"

Xing Tianyu glanced at Xiao Zhen, but the other party looked confident, (Don't worry, I will definitely win this time!) Xiao Zhen's eyes seemed to reveal such a meaning.

Ning Wenrui was confused, but when his hand reached into the pocket of his coat, a confident smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Gambling, Lao Xing, if you can choose the gambling method, I think we still have some chance of winning."

Xing Tianyu thought to himself, why are these two guys so confident?

However, since even Ning Wenrui, who was the most unacceptable, said so, it seemed that he had no choice, so he nodded slightly, "Then it's a matter of determination."
