Chapter 422: This woman is so rich, she is definitely the strongest one!!
After realizing their situation, Erza and the other four stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
"The current situation is just as you can see...why don't we take a break first, or practice handstand..."
"Why don't you listen to what you are saying first?!"
"Anyway...anyway...don't panic! Everyone will be fine..."
"Wipe your sweat first!!"
Gray knelt on the ground, his whole body dark. "There's no other way! In this situation, there's absolutely no way for us to escape by ourselves! Can we only wait for Kira and the others to come and rescue us?"
“Hahaha! Stop dreaming!! No one can get through the trap set by our dark guild, the One-Eyed Snake!!!”
Lucy was delighted: "Yes! And Kira! If it were them, they would definitely be able to find this place and rescue us!"
Outside the iron cage, a silly little brother pointed at the people inside and said, "Brother, not only that woman, but also the others are not listening to you at all."
The man who was called "big brother" was the arrogant man. He shouted several times but got no response. He was also pointed out by his subordinates . He was immediately embarrassed and cursed angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! These people must be deaf!"
"No... no matter how you look at it, he's not deaf..."
What made the other party happy was that after Erza and the others accepted their situation, someone finally cared about the people outside the iron cage. With a clang, Natsu had already moved to the side of the iron cage.
“Who are you?!!”
The spacious iron cell occupied half of the room, while the other half was filled with a bunch of bad boys wearing tattered vests and fierce-looking middle-aged men with ferocious faces, drinking and chatting.
A man sat on a chair facing the iron cell door. He had a fancy hairstyle, wore sunglasses, and was wearing gold and silver. He looked arrogant from head to toe. He looked like the leader of this group. On his left shoulder was a black guild emblem, a pair of snake eyes, representing the name of this dark guild, 'One-eyed Snake'.
"Huh? You ask who I am? Hahahaha... I'll scare you to death if I tell you! I'm the president of the 'One-Eyed Snake'!"
"One-eyed snake?"
"Who?"
"I don't know, maybe it's some low-ranking dark guild..."
The conversation between Natsu and Gray directly angered the arrogant man: "Huh? I mean, which guild are you wizards from? You don't even know the famous dark guild 'One-eyed Snake' in Kiltina? Oh! I get it, you want to irritate me and disrupt my judgment! Humph! What a pity, the plan will be useless once it is exposed... "
Seeing that the other person was talking nonstop, Nazgrey and the others immediately lost interest: "So he's an idiot."
"Hey!! Who are you calling an idiot?!"
"Boss, they are talking about you..."
The arrogant man ignored his younger brother's complaints and continued to talk to himself: "I know, you must be feeling anxious about the current situation, right? Why do I know? Do I even need to ask? I've seen a lot of fools like you!"
Natsu waved his hands, "No... We're not anxious at all..."
The harpy who just woke up rubbed his eyes and said softly in the small cage: "Natsu, I'm hungry~"
"Huh? You ask why we are arresting people? Is there any need to explain this? Of course we are going to sell you as slaves!" The arrogant man opened his arms and threatened them.
But Erza and the others remained expressionless, and just responded in unison: "Oh."
The younger brothers exclaimed in disbelief: "It's so calm??!!!"
"Hey, hey! They're selling it to Persia, Persia !!"
"Come on! How can they understand what you are saying?! Let me tell you! Persia is located in Ishgar. Even if you take a boat or a car, it will take at least a month to get here. In other words, it is a place you can never return to!!"
"When the time comes, you will be controlled by those princes and nobles, and be exploited by wretched uncles and fat aunts every day~"
"Hahaha... they must be so scared that they have peed their pants now! But who made them unlucky enough to fall into the hands of our 'One-eyed Snake'?"
Lucy fell into thought: "Persia... I seem to have heard of it somewhere? Speaking of which, being sold as a slave seems familiar to me..."
Suddenly, memories flashed through my mind...
"Ah! I remember now, when I first met Natsu and the others, I was almost sold to Persia by that 'fake fire dragon'!"
Happy raised his hand and smiled, "Yeah, yeah, I remember now, Lucy and this country are really destined to be together..."
"Stop talking nonsense! Wait! My key..."
At this moment, Lucy suddenly remembered that she was controlled by others and even her key was thrown into the sea. In the end, it was the harpy who took her back. Thinking of this, her eyes unconsciously looked to the side of her waist, but she found that her key bag was missing!
"Where are my keys?! Where are my keys?"
"Huh? Keys? You mean this?" The arrogant man picked up Lucy's key bag from the table next to him. "You won't be able to use it in the future anyway, so why not leave it to me and sell it for a good price!"
"Give me back my keys, you bastard!!"
However, in this situation, even if Lucy was extremely anxious, how could the other party listen?
The arrogant man chuckled: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Star Spirit Key, right? Such a key can be sold for a lot of money!"
Lucy was speechless: "Why... I always feel that this expression is so familiar..."
“I think so too.”
"But I heard that there are only twelve of the highest-grade golden keys, representing the twelve zodiac signs. I didn't expect you to have collected them all. Are you, woman, saying..."
"Eh? ? Could it be that he has heard of my name?" Lucy was stunned by his words, and immediately looked forward to his next words.
"…Is he the strongest one among these people?"
thump!
Lucy was speechless and disappointed, but then she realized something: "That's right! We were attacked before we even started, so the other party doesn't know our strength! Maybe we can use this to divert their attention to me, and then Erza and the others can take advantage of the opportunity..."
"No! Lucy is the weakest among us!" ×3 (Erza, Natsu, Gray)
"What are you guys doing??!!!"
"The weakest?" The arrogant man hesitated for two seconds, then looked at Erza and the others carefully for a long time, and said angrily, "Do you think I'm an idiot?! The most valuable things you guys have are these keys. You are definitely the strongest one!!"
Lucy: “Ehhhhh ??!!” (I guessed completely wrong!! What kind of logic is this guy using?! I’m not only the weakest, but also the poorest!!)
Erza/Natsu/Gray: “Ehhhhh??!!” (Is this person not only an idiot, but also blind?! I should be the strongest!!)
Wendy/Happy/Xia Lulu: “Ehhhhh??!!” (How can there be such an outrageous person??!!)
The shocked expressions of the few people were taken by the arrogant man as surprise after he had guessed it right.
"This guy!" The other person pointed at Natsu, "He has an idiotic face, is impulsive and easily angered, and is the first to yell. He is definitely the most idiotic person among you! But idiotic and passionate men can sometimes burst out with amazing fighting power, so he is also the second strongest person!"
"Oh? I didn't expect this guy to have some intelligence. He actually guessed Natsu's personality correctly..."
(Gray: Hey! I'm the second strongest, right?!)
"This guy!" The other party pointed at Gray again, "He took off his clothes as soon as he entered the room. If I didn't think it was immoral and I didn't want to leave traces of chains on the slave's body, what you see now is a naked man. He is definitely the most perverted person among you! But generally speaking, the more perverted a person is, the scarier he is. If he didn't have some strength, how could you let such a person stay in the team? So he is the third strongest person!"
"Is that... half right?"
(Natsu: Hahaha!! Pervert... Hahaha!!...)
"This girl!" The third person pointed at Wendy. "She's just a little kid with skinny arms and legs. The books say 'no flesh on the chest means not strong enough'. Plus, she's been so timid from the beginning. She must be a little sister who has been well protected by you guys and has never seen the world!"
"I always feel that the more I guess, the more outrageous it becomes..."
(Wendy: Wow wow wow~ What a mess of books those are...)
"This girl!" The other party finally pointed at Erza, "Her hair is not tied up, her breasts are too big, and her armor is too heavy. These are all burdens that slow down the battle speed! All of these show that she is a rookie! Therefore, she is the weakest one!!"
“This is a completely wrong guess!!”
(Eruza: You said I was the weakest? I can't pretend I didn't hear that!)
Pah pah pah!!!
After hearing the arrogant man's reasoning, the younger brothers burst into thunderous applause.
"As expected of you, Boss! This is simply the most perfect reasoning!!"
"Every time I hear the boss's careful reasoning, I feel that the future of the guild is full of hope!
"Is this the man known as the 'Pupil of the Viper'? His observation skills are amazing. Following you is definitely the best decision I have made in the past ten years!"
In the iron prison, the women and children who had been tied here from the beginning all showed strange expressions.
In fact, they had heard this kind of "reasoning" several times before. Although the accuracy rate of each reasoning was less than half, seeing the flattery of those younger brothers and the pride of the boss, they really didn't dare to say "wrong" and could only bow their heads silently...
Hold back your laughter.
