Chapter 153: The Fairness of the Strong

But Nebula, who was chatting energetically, how could they care about the strangeness of Kevin's expression?

It seems that Kevin can only find a way to make Shaya forget his recent statement on the Notelles.

On the way back to the Gold Coast, everything went well, and a few monkeys and red crabs popped up halfway, all of which were dealt with by Claire alone.

You should also show yourself occasionally in front of the captain, so that the captain can be more impressed with himself.

At least that's what Claire thought

"That's it! It's time!! The Coconut Fruit Challenge has come to a successful conclusion!! Registered participants are asked to come up to the stage to confirm their number of bananas and coconut fruits. This competition is based on the number of coconut fruits, and bananas are counted as half a coconut fruit. The person with the largest number of coconut nuts can exchange them for the corresponding gold coins and receive a special reward from Mr. Pate. "Byron set up a simple stage out of thin air in an open space on the Gold Coast, and played the role of host on the stage.

The Coconut Fruit Challenge has also come to an end

"Ninety-eight Jock, handed over twenty coconut fruits. Oh~~~~ This is a very good result, only under the twenty-two coconut fruits of Musek!! Mr. Jock, please take it, this is your two million gold coins. Byron held a microphone on the stage and introduced it to the adventurers in the audience very passionately.

Jock, with a pockmarked face, stood on the stage in front of the pile of money bags he had gotten, waving excitedly at the audience below with his hands outstretched.

Under Byron's leadership, the adventurers in the audience began to clap their hands sporadically. After a while, the sporadic applause was enthusiastic for a while, and then fell silent.

But of course, adventurers always care about their own things. It's no surprise that most female adventurers like this are interested in such an event.

After Jock stepped down, Byron's rousing voice resounded throughout the Gold Coast again: "Everyone, please No. 99, Glaal . . . Mr. Nebula! Come on stage!! ”

"Captain! It's your turn! ”

"Come on, Nebula!"

"Nebula, absolutely no problem!"

"Captain Nebula, don't throw in the towel!"

Claire, Juta, Annie, and Kevin cheered Nebula on the stage, and Nebula slowly stepped onto the stage with a timid expression.

They're all looking at me! What to do? So nervous!

Nebula was very uneasy, but thinking of the cheers from the players in the audience before, Nebula's mood gradually calmed down.

This is the first time I have appeared on the stage, and I must not lose face on stage. I'm the captain of the world's No. 1 adventure team!!

Nebula, like the previous contestants, waved his right hand wearing a space ring, and a bunch of coconut fruits and bananas in the shape of a small mountain appeared on the ground in front of him.

Seeing so many bananas and coconut fruits piled up next to the nebula's feet, the adventurers in the audience talked a lot.

"Wouldn't it!? This little magician is so lucky? ”

"I don't think it's any luck, right!? With so many quest items collected, you must have hired an adventure party to help! ”

"It's shameless, our coconut fruit was found one by one, what is the big deal about this little ghost with a few stinky money!"

"At a young age, he cares so much about fame, it seems that he will not have any success in the future!"

"What an arrogant little ghost, wait until this competition is over, hehe"

Hearing everyone's discussions, Nebula's face turned slightly pale, he had expected that he might be questioned by the audience because of his age and strength, but he didn't expect it to turn into a discussion against him.

Listening to the increasingly popular words in the audience, Clea, Yuta, Kevin and Anne finally couldn't help but walk onto the stage.

Claire snatched the microphone from Byron's hand and yelled at the microphone, "Shut up!" ”

"Nebula, he didn't cheat!! I'm Claire from 100, he's Juta from 1001, she's Anne from 102, he's McGonagall from 103, we're all on the same Adventure Team, and Nebula is the leader of our Adventure Team, was there anything wrong with us handing over the quest items to the Captain? "Claire may have a natural queen temperament! After hearing Claire's rhetorical question, no adventurer in the audience dared to look at the angry Claire.

After a period of silence, the people in the audience whispered again, this time no longer blatantly speaking ill of Nebula, but thinking that it was really an unwise choice for these young people with good talents to choose a child as the captain, and the topic of Nebula gradually shifted to the adventure team founded by Nebula.

"Hmmm! Ahem~~~~ There was just a little accident, and we will announce it. Nebula No. 99 handed in thirty-seven and a half coconut fruits, surpassing Musek, who had previously held the first place, and we congratulate the little magician together. After Byron's announcement, he took the lead in clapping his hands again.

After a few scattered clappings from the audience, there was a quiet silence.

"Well~~~~ Since Claire in the hundredth, Juta in the one hundred and one, Anne in the one hundred and two, and McGonagall in the one hundred and third did not harvest the coconut fruit, they were disqualified from this competition. Now I have the next contestant" When Byron was still enthusiastically hosting, Nebula and the others had already walked off the stage.

After walking out of the noisy stage, Nebula was very moved and said to Claire and the others, "Sister Claire, thank you!" Miss Annie, Juta, and Kevin, thank you! Thank you for standing up for me. ”

"What did you say? You're the captain! Who are we not looking at you? Anne said to Nebula with a smile.

Juta said to Nebula in a serious voice, "Captain, this time I will forgive you for your unintentional mistake. Do teammates still need to say 'thank you' to each other? ”

"Because you're the captain I admit!" Claire said succinctly.

Kevin scratched his head and said, "Captain, that's all we can do. ”

"But Captain, why don't you show your true strength, so that they don't dare to say any gossip!?" Kevin asked Nebula suspiciously.

Nebula had to bow his head in embarrassment when he heard Kevin's words, if it was so easy, he would have done it a long time ago, okay?

After this second costume change, Nebula finally discovered two drawbacks of his hole card.

The first disadvantage is that you can only use it once a day anyway, and the second use must be at least twenty-four hours apart, otherwise it will cause an unimaginable burden on the body.

The second disadvantage is that the mana consumption when changing clothes lasts is too severe, and a large part of the reason why this time it is only to repel the giant crab instead of killing it is because of the lack of mana. Although the powerful magic equipment enhances the strength of his magic power, the total capacity of the magic power is still a little bit, if it is not for his strong spiritual power, the recovery speed of the magic power is ten times that of ordinary magicians, and it may be that when facing the giant crab, the magic double tap of the last blow will not be released.

"Na! Isn't that really cheating like this? The older siblings were right, most of their coconut fruit was found separately. Isn't it unfair to them that we do so? Nebula was silent for a moment before whispering to Claire.

Clea, Juta, Anne, and Kevin try to find a reason to refute it, but they find that they have no reason to defend themselves.

"Fair!? Amusing!! There is no fairness in this world at all!! A handsome young man wearing a gentleman's hat, a white dress, and a white cloak appeared in front of Xingyun and the others silently, and said aloud to Xingyun and the others.

"You're Brother Pate!!" Nebula recognized this man at a glance as the handsome man he had met at the seaside cottage at noon.

Pete raised the brim of his hat and greeted Xingyun and the others: "Hello, I'm the organizer of this coconut fruit challenge, Pate, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

After saying that, Pate also took off his hat very gentlemanly and made a gentleman's salute.

"Mr. Petgo, may I ask what you just mean?" Nebula was very concerned about this, so he asked Pat about it.

"Nebula, what do you think fairness is?" Pate suddenly asked Nebula.

Xingyun thought about it seriously and said, "Fairness means that everyone can be treated equally. People are equal and respect each other. ”

After hearing Nebula's answer, Pate nodded and continued, "Then do you think that as a twenty-first level magician, you are equal to an ordinary peasant?" He farms and does farm work every day, and his hard work is not even worse than that of you magicians, and you magicians can get hundreds of gold coins or thousands of gold coins for just one simple task in the Adventurer's Guild, which is fair for ordinary farmers who may not get three hundred gold coins after hard work for a year? ”

Nebula thought about it carefully and shook his head silently, because he came out of a remote frozen and snowy region, Nebula naturally knew the gap between ordinary people and magicians.

"So what exactly is fairness?" Nebula asks Pate, hoping that Pate can give him a correct answer to clear his doubts.

"Fairness is always only for the strong, strength! Only those who have strength that is strong enough to be unshakable are qualified to be fair to them, just like the Holy Land," Pate sighed.

At this time, Kevin on the side suddenly shouted loudly: "You are the Phantom Thief!" Phantom Thief - Pate!! ”

"What?! Are you the Phantom-sama, one of the five heroes who saved the world? Claire shouted excitedly, she is a die-hard fan of Phantoms, and it can even be said that it is because of Phantoms that Claire will enter the profession of Flying Man.

Juta and Anne didn't speak, not because they had nothing to say, but because they had so much to say when they saw the legendary character that they didn't know what to say.

Probably because Claire's screams were too noticeable, the adventurers under the stage faintly heard the words Phantom Thief, and after racking their brains for a long time, a small group of people finally associated him with Mr. Pate, the organizer of the coconut fruit contest.

Due to the fact that the Phantom Thief is too big, many people have neglected that the Phantom's real name is Pate.
