The Seven Deadly Sins: Greed!
Chapter 64 The Seven Deadly Sins, Greed!
The commotion drew everyone's attention to the tavern.
They glanced at them sideways.
Looking at that figure standing in the darkness.
It was at this time that...
One after another, strange figures began to emerge from the ground; they were the black qi monsters controlled by the Holy Lord!
These monsters stood quietly around Valmont.
Very weird.
"ghost!"
"A ghost!"
In an instant, the slightly tipsy guests were completely sobered up.
They exclaimed in surprise.
Then they hurriedly fled the tavern.
Valmont and the monsters did not interfere with the escapees, because for them, the fewer people in the tavern, the better for them to operate.
"Ghost."
Compared to the other patrons at the bar, the bartender was much calmer.
Because beyond fear, there was another special emotion in his heart: the shock of the fictional things in the storybook turning into reality!
Many of the monsters around Valmont were ones he had seen in the world of the book.
Ghost Crab —
Bull Head —
Horse-faced
These are all monsters that appear in ancient books!
"How is it?"
"My dear bartender, have you changed your mind now?"
Valon smiled.
He reached out to the bartender again, demanding the black-colored book.
The bartender knew perfectly well.
If he were to refuse Valon at this moment, he would be torn to shreds by Valon's monsters!
As the owner of the Black Qi Tome, he was well aware of the terror of these monsters!
but.
He still didn't want to give up the books so easily.
the reason is simple.
Without the scriptures in his hands, he would no longer be able to absorb "qi" from others!
That would prevent him from living indefinitely.
Human desires are endless.
Like a flowing stream, once it starts, it can never be stopped.
Having experienced a healthy life free from disease and a life of longevity, bartenders want even more!
He wants to live on.
Immortality!
"No! No way!"
Thinking this, the bartender unexpectedly shouted loudly at Valon, "You want alcohol, you want money, I can give you anything, but not this!"
"Wait, what did you say?"
Valon, however, was not angered by the bartender's roar.
He frowned slightly.
It was as if I had caught some key words in the bartender's words.
then.
Valon took a small step forward, standing just a counter away from the bartender, and asked, "Could you repeat what you just said?"
"Um?"
The bartender was taken aback, but he wisely repeated, "You want drinks, you want money, I can give you anything, but this is the only thing I can't do."
"Yes, that's it!" Valon's eyes lit up instantly.
He grabbed the bartender's hands and chuckled, "Sir, you said you could give me money, so how much are you planning to spend on this book?"
"Uh..."
This move completely baffled the bartender.
He hadn't expected it at all.
Even someone with such a high-profile entrance can be someone who succumbs to money.
money?
Can money compare to immortality, ultimate power, or unlimited strength?
The bartender couldn't understand it.
He genuinely couldn't understand it.
But now is not the time to think about these things.
He quickly regained his composure and weakly said to Valon, "I've worked in taverns my whole life, and with some other savings, I should be able to come up with a few million dollars. What do you think?"
"A few million dollars?"
I've heard that...
Walong's tone suddenly became somewhat disappointed.
He thought the bartender was some kind of hidden tycoon.
It was only a few million.
He was disappointed.
Compared to the treasure promised by the Holy Lord, these few million seem insignificant.
Valon said helplessly, "Sir, I'm sorry, the tokens you've offered are insufficient to exchange for this book, so..."
He glanced behind him.
At his command, the monsters swarmed and snatched the book from the bartender.
"Your book is mine now."
Valon was a simple man from beginning to end. He didn't crave power or authority; he only loved money. How pure he was!
If the bartender in front of him can really give him enough chips.
perhaps,
He really will betray the Holy Lord.
pity.
The bartender did not produce this wealth that could shake his resolve.
"gentlemen."
"The matter concerning the classics is over."
The latest novel is first published here!
"Now."
"We should make a new deal."
Valon chuckled, then patted the bartender's cheek: "I'll buy your life with money, a few million would be just enough."
"No, no"
Looking at the face in front of him, the bartender gradually lost consciousness.
He seems to care nothing about his own life now, only about that book, that dark magic book!
"Give me back the books!"
His heart seemed to be occupied by the black energy that had been sucked into his body in the past.
He pounced on the black monster like a wild beast.
They attempted to snatch their dark magic manual from Ghost Crab.
but.
How could the power of mortals possibly compare to that of monsters?
The monster simply waved its hand, and the bartender was blasted into the wall, his fate unknown.
In this regard.
Valon simply spread his hands helplessly: "It's not my fault, you asked for it."
"I could have spared your life."
His tone was somewhat disappointed.
It's a pity that the bartender's decision meant he lost millions of dollars.
After letting out a soft sigh.
Valon waved his hand, and prepared to leave with the black-furnace monsters.
however,
It was at this moment that a sudden change occurred!
Suddenly, incredibly dense black mist surged out from the wall, and a thick arm emerged from it.
Then,
A monstrous growl was emitted.
"This is?"
Valon turned his head slightly, and what he saw completely stunned him.
The bartender no longer had his previous human form; now he was a monster shrouded in dense black mist!
A monster that's a full five meters tall!
It's like
A zombie tyrant like those in Resident Evil!
"Give me back the books!!!"
After another roar, the bartender charged at the monster that had snatched the tome and tore it to shreds in a single blow.
"Wow!"
This scene left Valmont completely stunned.
He desperately wanted to exchange the scriptures for treasures from the Holy Lord, but the key was that he also needed to be alive to enjoy them!
If we don't leave now...
Once this monster has wiped out all the black-armored warriors, he'll be the one who dies!
Thinking about this...
Valon hurriedly had an agile dark warrior take him away.
While the bartender was fighting the monsters around him, Valon escaped.
"That's right, that's exactly it."
"Let yourself go completely."
"You are a noble demon of darkness. Your task is to shatter all obstacles in your path and obtain everything you desire."
Just after the bartender crushed all the monsters.
A whisper from ancient times suddenly rang in its ear, eerie and seductive.
"Master, Ye is still alive?!?"
"No"
"No one can escape the slaying of the sword of time. The night is dead. What lives now is the negativity bred by darkness, which the Bible calls the seven deadly sins."
Right now, it's greed.
