1074 Exciting Performance
Below the atmosphere of Planet Princess Anna, close to the sky, an extremely gorgeous airship equipped with a low-altitude floating shuttle was floating between the clouds.
In the hall that was much more luxurious than it looked, dozens of men and women were gathered. The scene was extremely chaotic and noisy.
In the middle of the hall, a virtual screen was projected. The image playing on it happened to be what was happening on the ground below.
The three young men did not throw themselves into the laughter and revelry like the other young men and women. Instead, they gathered in front of the virtual screen and stared at the real-time image on the screen.
Seeing the various ferocious beasts swarming over from all directions and surrounding the nearly a hundred young martial artists who had just been transported over, the three young men seemed to have suddenly been stimulated. They cried out loudly at the same time with extremely excited expressions.
“Heh, look! Look! Another group of pitiful country bumpkins is about to die under the claws of these beasts! Heh, brothers, because of the life they’re about to offer, let’s drink this!”
Roar!
The other two young men let out another strange cry. They raised the wine glasses in their hands and fiercely collided before drinking them in one go.
The three of them blushed at the same time, and their expressions were even more excited than before.
“Praise His Majesty!” Another rough-looking young man with extremely small eyes praised loudly, “If he hadn’t held this Garden Hunting Assembly, how could we have seen such an exciting performance?!”
“Heh, dear Leon, don’t be excited too early. This grand banquet has only just begun.” The young man who spoke previously laughed loudly. The two golden beards on his lips that seemed to have been deliberately grown danced with his laughter, causing him to be more or less comical, “Today’s performance can only be considered a dessert before the official banquet!”
The young man called Leon immediately smiled and nodded, “That’s right! Sarkris, I’ve already bought a special cabin ticket to Planet Lantis. I must watch this performance from the nearest distance!”
Sarkris sneered and said with an arrogant expression, “Do I need you to emphasize this? Long before the news in the palace spread, I had already sent people to tidy up the manor on Planet Lantis. At that time, I’ll lie in the manor and drink good wine and touch beauties while admiring the hot-blooded battle between those outsiders and our most respected princes and princesses.”
At this point, Sarkris laughed even more arrogantly.
“Ha! No performance has ever touched me so much and excited me! Think about it, those usually high and mighty fellows are now risking their lives to fight those bumpkins from the most remote Star Field! When I think of this, I feel filled with passion and joy!”
Sarkris cried out strangely again. He suddenly turned around and carried a young girl who passed by him. In a few moves, he tore off all the clothes on the girl’s body. Then, he fiercely stabbed her in front of a group of people.
“Heh, Sarkris has always been unable to suppress his impulse.” Seeing Sarkris moving on the girl’s body, Leon shook his head and turned to ask the remaining young man with a square face and an extremely pale face, “What about you? Andreo, does the esteemed Earl still want to force you to participate in this event?”
Hearing this question, the young man called Andreo’s already pale face became even paler.
The smile on his face instantly disappeared. He put on a long face and said extremely sadly, “Father has already given the ultimatum. If I’m unwilling to participate, he’ll directly chase me out of the family and won’t allow anyone to support me in the future. Clearly, he’s made up his mind this time. Even my mother, who dotes on me the most, was fiercely reprimanded by him because she protected me. Therefore… I have to participate.”
“Is that so?” Leon had a thought. He patted Andreo’s shoulder and laughed loudly, “Then I really have to congratulate you. Now, it seems that it’s a wise choice for me to take the initiative to give up my family’s inheritance. At the very least…” Leon pointed at the scene that was still in an intense battle on the virtual screen, “There’s no need to risk my life with these barbarians, right?”
Andreo turned to look at the virtual screen. Coincidentally, the scene on it was a large bird-like ferocious beast clawing open the chest of a young martial artist. That young martial artist cried out in pain as several pieces of flesh in his chest were torn apart. A large amount of blood spat out and he instantly fell from the sky.
On the ground below, countless ferocious beasts were waiting. As long as he fell, it seemed that he would fall into the mouth of the ferocious beasts and lose his life.
Previously, when he saw these scenes, Andreo still looked like he was watching a good show. From time to time, he was extremely excited by such an exciting scene.
However, now that he recalled that he would probably face the same fate as these guys after a period of time and even have to fight them to the death, he immediately could not help but shiver.
“Damn! When we get there, I don’t care about my results. I only care about thinking of a way to survive!” Andreo fiercely made up his mind.
“This is the correct attitude.” Leon patted his shoulder again, “In any case, we’re not those noble princes. We don’t have to lose our lives to fight for the throne. Look, there are still so many beautiful things waiting for us to enjoy in this world. It’s a pity if we die easily.”
Andreo naturally agreed with this statement, but he immediately had doubts.
“Speaking of which… Leon, don’t you think it’s strange? After so many years, why do those guys from the royal family still have to force every prince and princess to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly? Can’t they only choose those who are outstanding enough? What’s the point of courting death for no reason?”
“You don’t understand?” Leon raised his eyebrows, and his expression revealed a little mystery, “If you don’t understand, think of it this way. If the esteemed Earl and his wife and the hundreds of mistresses of the Earl give birth to hundreds of brothers for you, will you want to kill them to prevent them from fighting for your limited inheritance?”
Andreo was stunned for a moment before revealing an enlightened expression.
“I see… I understand.”
Leon chuckled and was about to say something when he suddenly heard Sarkris groan in satisfaction. He could not help but glare at him in amusement. He shook his head and hugged Andreo’s shoulder. He pointed at the huge virtual screen and said, “Ignore them. Now, let’s enjoy the exciting performance brought about by these poor fellows!”
