Chapter 169: The rhythm of the candidates
"Mahamadu collected the second Fate Chart, and the reward amount was raised to 450,000."
"Selma's heavy reward for a child is true. The first mate of the Swordfish, Xie Li Mir, has gained Selma's appreciation and spent a wonderful night with her. However, he failed to impregnate Selma, but still gained an opportunity to trade with her and obtained strength ten times that of an ordinary person."
"Captain Belku of the Blue Whale also had the fortune of being with Selma for a while. He saw ancient books about the Fish Era in Selma's bedroom..."
"It is said that when Selma is intimate with someone, her beautiful fish tail will transform into long, slender legs..."
...
In the next three or four days, there were new rumors in various ports, some spread by Du Ge, and some spread by others, some true and some false.
More and more lucky people encountered Selma, with dozens of people claiming to have met Selma and made deals with her, gaining superhuman strength.
In the face of ironclad facts, even the captain who was questioned by Selma that night swore that the rumor of Selma's heavy reward for a child was false, and no one believed it.
More and more people started adding the suffix "fish" to their names.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)
...
"Selma has gone crazy. Even if she wants to have fun, does she have to bring so many men out in three days? How will people see her? Doesn't she care about her reputation? Will she be seen as a promiscuous woman..."
The rumors from all over left Marsha stunned.
That day, after Du Ge promised to return the Trident to Janey, she continued to stay in the Sea Fish Pirate Group.
It's not that she believes in Du Ge's character, but she believes in the future. In the divination of fate, Paul caught the Trident twice.
The second time, Paul directly used the Trident.
Although she didn't know why Paul, a mere mortal, could use the Trident, this reason was enough to keep her by Paul's side.
Knowing that the Trident would eventually fall into Paul's hands and leaving his side would be foolish.
As long as she finds an opportunity to touch the Trident, she has a chance to restore the power of the sea god, suppress all rebellions, and Paul and Selma even want to make a fake Trident to deceive her, which is simply too much.
Looking at the men who claimed to have slept with Selma, Du Ge almost burst out laughing.
Selma's mind is not filled with water, of course, she wouldn't find so many men.
So.
These guys who jumped out on their own, either for the sake of popularity, or they are candidates...
Is there a better excuse than trading with Selma to gain powerful strength?
That's what he did at the time.
Of course.
It is also possible that they spread rumors to cover themselves, or that candidates with similar abilities to spread rumors are increasing their strength...
Moreover, the current system is a rotational examination system, and after leaving the simulation field, they will enter the simulation field again, without the opportunity to understand the outside world.
These elites selected from all over the world are still steadily moving forward according to the original rhythm.
In the previous simulation fields.
The final battle often took place in April or May.
During this time.
The top ten spots in the simulation field will continue to change, with people being assassinated, replaced, assassinated again, and replaced again.The top ten spots were subject to countless changes.
Elites would control their own rankings, honing their application of advanced skills, concealing themselves, focusing on and staying close to the main world storyline, ultimately claiming victory.
Especially this time, it was an elite competition, with opponents all being the top contenders from various Simulation Fields.
Everyone was exceedingly cautious.
In their minds, this was a long marathon; those who sprinted ahead early on weren't guaranteed to last until the end. Guided by this thought, the unexpectedly emerging Paul was seen by many more as a character in the plot, rather than a contestant.
Of course.
Even if someone guessed he was a contestant, no one would risk assassinating him.
Because the period of stability was about to end.
Whether Paul was a contestant or not, with his current influence in the world, assassinating him at this time would definitely propel one's ranking into the top ten.
Exposing oneself publicly meant making enemies of five hundred people, and if someone else were to capitalize on that, the loss would outweigh the gain.
In their eyes, the Black Hand who had risked assassinating Paul earlier was a complete fool.
All the contestants were waiting, waiting for the announcement of the top ten at the end of the month, and they were also scrambling to find pieces of the Destiny Sea Chart. Securing even one piece meant they could control the progression of the main storyline.
...
The transaction between Du Ge and Selma did not spread.
The outside world's impression of his strength remained at the level where he only had the sea monster Enke and over a hundred pirate ships.
When he suddenly changed course to attack Safra.
The South Sea King on Phoenix Tail Island quickly began to muster forces, preparing to confront the sea monster Enke, and also immediately requested cooperation from Amy Swan, who naturally sought vengeance for her father and was a natural ally.
At the same time.
Antonio received orders from Admiral Camilo to launch a full-scale attack on Mahamadu to seize the two Destiny Sea Charts in his possession.
On the seas.
The Royal Navy and the fleets of the Four Seas Kings were mobilizing back and forth, busier than ever before.
