In the afternoon, at the headquarters of the Norland Clique Chamber of Commerce.
Friet von Clique was looking at the recent sales reports of the Chamber of Commerce.
Ever since he had made a commercial partnership with a chaos demon named Joshua, under the power of ‘advertising’, the capital of his chamber of Commerce had more than tripled!
This was enough for him to become Nolan’s most influential trading firm.
The missionaries of the Kingdom of the sacred religion did not deceive him as expected. Cooperating with the demons could indeed obtain benefits that were difficult to... refuse.
“Master Friet, there is a merchant from the Kingdom of steel who wishes to see you. He says that he is the manager of the silver-patterned trading firm.”
An attendant walked into the study and handed a badge to FRIET.
“Silver-patterned? Why did that old guy come to Nolan?”
Friet held the silver badge in his hand and tried to figure it out.
Although he was from the country of steel, his business foundation in the country of steel was not strong. He relied on the patent of the magic conductor car to barely establish a branch of a trading firm in the capital of the country of steel.
After all, when fleet came to Nolan, he was just an ordinary businessman who had just started from scratch. After he came to Nolan, he founded this trading firm.
The silver pattern was different. This trading firm had been rooted in the steel country’s Osenburg for many years.
When fleet was still down and out more than ten years ago, he had met the manager of this trading firm a few times.
“Where is he?”
Friet was in a good mood now, and he was ready to show off his current achievements to those high and mighty people in the past.
The attendant led FRIET to a room specially provided for guests.
“York! You Old Guy, you haven’t seen me for so long, why have you become thinner?”
After FRIET recognized the manager of the silver-patterned flower who was sitting in the room, he warmly greeted him.
“As time goes by, people will change. Let me introduce you to the eldest son of the Cruz family, Mr. Etke.”
The manager of the silver flower pointed at a young man sitting next to him.
“I didn’t expect the future heir of Orson Castle to patronize my small chamber of Commerce.”Friet greeted him with a commercial smile.
However, the son of the count didn’t seem to be in a good mood. He looked at Frik from head to toe and directly told him his purpose of coming.
“Mr. Frik, I came here in the hope of getting information about my fiancée.”The son of the count said impatiently, “I heard that your chamber of Commerce covers the entire Nolan. I hope you can help me find her whereabouts. Her name is Dorothy, and her features are wine-red long hair and eyes...”
“This is the so-called noble manner.”Friet sighed slightly. The young man in front of him did not seem to know that he was also a noble of the steel nation.
However, the information provided by the son of the count quickly reminded Friet of a person!
Just a few hours ago, almost all the posts on the Spellcaster Forum were from the girl from the steel nation. Friet also paid attention to it. The name was Dorothy.
“I think I know where the person you’re looking for is,”Friet said.
“You know? !”He suddenly stood up from his seat. It seemed that the son of the Count had been searching in the city for a long time before he came to find Friet.
When FRIET saw their astonished looks, he knew that these ‘nobles’who had just come from the steel nation had never come into contact with the weave.
He had once been compared to a ‘country bumpkin’by the manager of the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce. However, from Fleet’s point of view, these fellows were no different from ignorant country bumpkins.
“Yes, I remember that Miss Dorothy participated in a competition after she came to Nolan.”Fleet did not want to argue with these country bumpkins.
“Competition? Lord Aitke, I already said that Dorothy must have come to Nolan to participate in the examinations of the Advanced Magic Academy.”
The manager of the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce, who was also Dorothy’s father, seemed to have glorified his daughter’s purpose of running away from the marriage as ‘to obtain higher academic achievements’.
It was a glorious thing for a spellcaster to come to Nolan to study. It was something that could make any parents proud that their own children could enter any advanced magic academy in Nolan.
“No, Miss Dorothy’s competition is not the entrance examination for Advanced Magic Academies.”
Unfortunately, Friet quickly shattered the father’s fantasy.
His daughter was not as diligent and eager to learn as he had imagined.
“This...”
While the other party was silent, Friet thought for a moment and remembered the name of the competition.
“I think the competition your daughter is participating in is called the Hearthstone legend Nolan Open Competition.”
“Hearthstone legend? What’s That?”
Looking at their puzzled expressions, Friet knew that these ‘Country Bumpkins’who had just arrived in Nolan a few days ago would never have heard of Hearthstone legend.
“It’s a card game.”When Friet said the word ‘game’, Dorothy’s father and the Count’s son’s expressions instantly changed.
The father’s expression became a little flustered and in disbelief, while the count’s son’s expression became a little gloomy.
“It’s a very popular card game among the dwarves. The places of play are basically all in the tavern. I heard that a large part of the gambling elements are also included in it.”
At this time, FRIET maliciously misled their impression of the Hearthstone legend.
This misdirection was obviously very successful. Dorothy’s father was completely stunned. Just from his expression, it was as if he was saying, ‘how could my daughter do such a thing!’
The Count’s son even clenched his fist and slammed it on the wooden table beside him.
Taverns, dwarves, card games, gambling.
If these four elements were combined, those who did not know the Hearthstone legend would definitely think of something bad.
The country of steel did not lack these underground casinos, but these casinos had always been equated with the words ‘vulgar’and ‘lowly’. Most of the women who appeared in these casinos were workers who served men.
No matter what, that was not a place that a qualified lady should go.
“The venue for the competition should be at the RUHLSK Advanced Magic Academy. The competition is not over yet, so it might not be too late to go over now.”
Everything that Friet said was the truth, but they had made a wrong assumption.
“Mr. Friet, what you said is... true? Why would a game competition be at the Advanced Magic Academy?”
The manager of the silver-patterned trading company felt that there was something strange in his words, so he did not seem to believe him.
“This is the only information I can provide you. Since you can’t find it anywhere else, you can go to that academy to have a look. It’s only three streets away from here,”Friet said.
The son of the count did not give any further answer. He immediately stood up and walked out with quick steps.
Freit watched as the son of the count left his trading firm. He pulled out a cigarette from his coat pocket and lit it up.
After smoking for a while, he came to a room with a television in the trading firm. The room was already filled with the servants of the trading firm who were resting, as well as some of the guests outside the trading firm.
They were all here for that match, or rather, they were all here for a certain person.
“Miss Dorothy has won again! The rest is up to the finals!”
The entire lounge was filled with an excited atmosphere. Friet spat out a mouthful of white smoke as he looked at the red-haired girl on the television screen.
“I’m a little envious that an old fellow like you has such a lucky daughter,”Friet sighed.
... ..
Nolan Magic Arena.
The final battle.
Dorothy could not believe that she had really come this far.
However, reality told her that if she won this round, she would be the champion of this Nolan Open tournament! She could be said to be the strongest hearthstone player in Nolan.
However, the opponent Dorothy faced in this final battle was also very powerful.
She looked at the opponent’s Stone Tower. Standing on the stone tower was a dwarf whose hair and beard had long turned white.
Frost axe... The grand elder of the Dwarf Frost Axe clan. He was also the current number one existence in the Hearthstone Tavern.
Just the cards he used were all of the highest level, ‘gold’, which was enough to give Dorothy pressure.
Not only did he have the best collection of cards among all the Hearthstone players in Nolan, even his skills were terrifyingly strong.
Was Dorothy defeated in the first round, or was it a crushing defeat? !
The ‘fire demon spell’that Dorothy used was defeated by the opponent’s roar almost without any resistance.
“It’s okay... There’s still a chance.”
Dorothy calmed herself down and directly chose the second set of hunters named ‘t 7’.
She did not know where this name came from, but the core of this set of cards was to target the opponent’s hero and kill the opponent’s hero in as few rounds as possible. The later the game progressed, the more disadvantageous the situation became.
This was a risky move, but Dorothy’s plan clearly succeeded.
In the second round, Frost Axe chose a paladin who was slightly slower.
When Dorothy controlled her hunter hero, Lexa, and commanded the Beast Army to pounce on the paladin, the symbol of victory once again appeared on the field.
“Well played!”
The paladin’s illusion was covered in injuries and half-knelt on the ground. Before the illusion shattered into pieces, he used his last bit of strength to say these words of praise.
“Thank you.”
The hunter Reyksa also expressed his respect to his opponent.
Dorothy had to admit that her palms were full of sweat. Her arms were even slightly trembling, and her brain was a little dizzy. She had never been so nervous in the previous two matches!
The reason for her nervousness was partly because of the finals, and partly because her opponent’s strength was too strong.
“Little girl, Are You Alright? !”
Frost Axe, who was standing on the other side, noticed Dorothy’s unusual behavior and shouted at her in her own voice.
Dorothy forced a smile at the dwarf, then gave him a thumbs up to show that she was fine.
“You defeated that Guy Black Rock! Don’t Fall Now!”Frost axe shouted again, “I don’t want this match to end so soon!”
Dorothy could feel the enthusiasm of the dwarves. She thought that after defeating a grand elder of the dwarves, she would be hated by these rigid dwarves.
But now it seemed that not only did the dwarves not hate her, but she also got the recognition of the dwarves?
She drove the strange thoughts out of her mind and began to focus on the match in front of her.
This was a tie battle. After Dorothy recovered another round, she was once again defeated by Frost Axe.
After four consecutive matches, the final match ended in a draw.
The final victory was fixed at the last round!
According to the rules, the card group used by both sides only had one last set, which was also the strongest card group used by Dorothy and Frost Axe!
“Let’s go together.”
Dorothy touched her own card box with her hand and murmured in a low voice. Then, she chose the last card set.
A heavily armored orc appeared on the battlefield. He raised his hand high and shouted as if he wanted to show Dorothy.
“If we don’t win, we’ll die!”
On the other side of Frost Axe, a dwarf who was also wearing heavy armor was ready to go to the battlefield!
“For Kaz Modan!”The dwarf shouted a name that Dorothy had never heard of before.
Dorothy had heard of this dwarf on the Spellcaster Forum. This was the limited hero that only a few players in Hearthstone legend had.
His class was also a warrior. It was said that in the background of the game, this dwarf was a great king, and he was also called the king of blacksmiths.
“In the last round, both players have chosen the warrior class. Let us use this match to witness the birth of the final Victor!”
Along with the voice of the host, the battle between the warrior and the warrior began.
Dorothy looked at her hand card. The card set she used was the strongest card set in Hearthstone legend, ‘Slave Battle’.
The unique feature was that even if there were no followers on the field, as long as the conditions in her hand were met, even if the opponent’s hero was at full health, she would be able to directly kill him!
Dorothy believed that the opponent would choose the same slave battle.
This would be a fierce battle to the death. In the face of this harsh battle, Dorothy chose to change her armor first!
This stalemate lasted for twelve rounds.
Dorothy took a look at her hand cards. There were no attendants on the field. Her hero, Garrulous, was holding an axe named frost bite.
The damage she could deal with these hand cards was as high as 47 points.
However, the opponent’s hero had 50 hp including his armor.
Dorothy could not wait any longer. She looked at the other dark iron dwarf on the enemy’s field. The dwarf’s name was Emperor Soleson, and he was also the Summoner of the Balrog king.
In the game, this emperor’s ability was to reduce the consumption of all the cards in his hand by a little.
Frost axe had summoned Emperor Soleson in the last round, so it was very likely that he was ready... ready to kill Dorothy when his HP was full.
In the end, Dorothy decided to take a gamble!
She would first release all the damage on her cards.
After making this decision, Dorothy threw all her cards into the battlefield, and powerful followers appeared in front of garrulse one after another.
“Charge forward!”
“It’s time to fight! Count me in!”
“My sharp blades are thirsty!”
“Lor Tak Ogar!”
In the next second, the burly orc raised the huge axe in his hand high up in the air, and with the sound of air being torn apart, he suddenly slashed at the Frost Axe’s Hero!
The axe blade hit the dwarf king’s body, and the axe instantly broke into pieces, and thousands of sharp shards exploded on the entire battlefield!
The shards stabbed all the creatures on the arena.
Fresh blood began to splatter all over the arena. When one of Dorothy’s subordinates, the ‘Terrifying Slave Master’, was stabbed by the shards.., another ‘terrifying slave master’that was the same as this follower appeared on the battlefield.
Two trolls named ‘Berserker’stood at the side. Their bodies were dripping with scarlet blood, and this blood did not make them weak. Instead, it made them enter an even more berserk state.
The two trolls let out a terrifying roar.
As more and more terrifying slave masters appeared on the battlefield, the blood on the ground had already flowed like a river.
Dorothy could clearly smell the blood in the air... This was not an illusion!
The moment everything was ready, Dorothy gave the order to attack her followers.
The terrifying slave masters went up and beat up the dwarf king once. The two berserkers let out a furious roar and raised their sharp blades to charge at the dwarf king, they directly shattered the armor on the dwarf king’s body.
The huge force caused the dwarf king to fly out of the arena and hit the stone tower where Frost Axe was standing, stirring up a lot of dust.
A large number of cracks also appeared on the stone tower.
Did he win?
Facing such a fierce attack, if Dorothy did not look at the game screen, she might really think that she had won.
However, the final result was just as Dorothy had expected.
The dwarf king fell into the ruins. His entire body was covered in ghastly wounds, and fresh blood flowed down from his body.
However, he forced himself to stand up with his wounded body. When it was Frost Axe’s turn, Frost Axe also summoned his own ‘army’!
”...”
Dorothy was stunned as she watched her hero, Garrosh, being knocked to the ground by Frost Axe’s army of followers. The hero’s life was instantly wiped out under the attack of the enemy’s Berserker.
The Beastman who had fallen to the ground held an axe in his hand and tried to stand up.
Could it be... There was still hope? Dorothy looked at the Beastman in the arena and could not help but want to shout at him to not fall.
However, reality was cruel. Garrulsh had indeed managed to stand up with his heavily injured body. However, the moment he straightened his back, this character had also turned into fragments and dissipated on the arena.
Dorothy looked at the fragments floating in the sky, as well as the words ‘defeat’on her screen. Her body seemed to have lost some support as she weakly knelt on the ground.
Deafening cheers could be heard from the surroundings. Petals fell from the sky once again. They were celebrating the birth of the victor.
But these cheers did not belong to Dorothy.
