    Chapter 946


    Jerome’s voice carried a hint of curiosity and suspicion as he directed his question toward Han. “Mr.


    Jaber, do you genuinely don’t know or are you feigning ignorance?


    Han’s response was firin as he shook his head. “I genuinely have no idea.”


    Jerry’s brows furrowed as he directed a perplexed gaze at Han. “Mr. Jaber, the reward for the Stone


    King Cup this time is truly remarkable. Are you truly unaware of this?”


    Han coxinued to shake his head.


    The Griffith brothers exchanged a quick nce, their eyes reflecting the mutual astonishment they felt.


    How could Han not know such an important thing?


    Jerome’s restrained expression concealed his thoughts as he elucidated, “The Stone King Cup holds


    immense significance this time, and the rewards it offers are truly exceptional.


    “By participating in the Stone King Cup, you have the chance to catch the attention of the organizers


    and secure a coveted position in the country’s new department, the Earth Vein Master.


    “Furthermore, the gemstones used in the Stone King Cup finals are of exceptional value. Rumor has it


    that the gemstones alone are worth hundreds of millions, and they will be awarded to the champion.


    “Lastly, by winning the Stone King Cup, you not only secure a prize worth tens of millions of dors, but


    you also earn the trust of Steve himself. This means you’ll be granted significant authority and


    command exclusive resources and forces as a trusted aide of the Earth Vein Masters.


    “These three conditions were publicized just four days ago, and the news quickly spread throughout the


    city, if not the entire country.


    “In essence, winning the Stone King Cup will propel you to the pinnacle of sess.


    “Mr. Jaber, you really don’t know?


    Four days ago?


    Han smiled bitterly and said, “Four days ago, I was still at Whileal Kingdom.”


    When the Griffith brothers heard this, they understood.


    No wonder Han didn’t know the importance of Stone King Cup. It turned out that Han was


    overseas at that time. “What’s an Earth Vein Master?” Han asked.


    Jerome elucidated. “The Earth Vein Master is merely a colloquial term we use. Officially, it is known as


    the Geological Investigation Bureau, responsible for surveying and monitoring the country’s mountains


    and rivers to locate the coveted dragon vein.


    “Their job is to seek the dragon and strike its acupoint and nail something to death!”


    “Something?”


    “ording to legend, prolonged exposure to the dragon vein can cause a transformation, turning


    ordinary beings into extraordinary dragons. The descendants of those buried within this dragon vein


    possess the potential to be formidable individuals. The task of the Geological Investigation


    Bureau is to locate such dragon veins and neutralize the imminent transformation, ensuring that the


    potential dragon is kept at bay!”


    “Why?”


    “By sealing off the dragon vein, any possibility of a new king emerging is eliminated. The country will


    remain stable, and Steve will remain on the throne.”


    Han frowned slightly when he heard this.


    Were these people all so superstitious?


    Theyout was indeed infinitely useful, capable of altering one’s destiny and bringing fortune to one’s


    family.


    The flow of the dragon vein was originally a natural phenomenon. By forcibly severing the dragon vein,


    its natural course would be disrupted.


    However, the dragon vein could not be severed or halted.


    If severed in one location, the dragon vein would gather and flow elsewhere.


    Eventually, the dragon vein would converge at an elusive point, giving rise to a new emperor.


    This was the immutablew of nature, an inevitability that could not be escaped.


    Indeed, the rise and fall of dynasties was an eternal cycle. With the passage of time, new talents would


    emerge, challenging the existing order and bringing about the transformation of dynasties.


    It was simply wrong for Steve to establish this so–called Earth Vein Master,


    However, not many people could clearly recognize this point.


    Han nced at everyone present and frowned slightly.


    At that moment, it finally dawned on him why there were so many experts gathered here. It became


    clear that they were all driven by the allure of power and personal gain.


    Once they imed the championship, they would not only acquire fame but also amass a great fortune.


    Once they entered the so–called Geological Investigation Bureau, it meant that they would have the


    authority to steer the course of the underground dragon vein.

    If people with hidden agendas managed to infiltrate the Geological Investigation Bureau and


    manipte the natural path of the dragon vein, it could potentially disrupt the existing power structure.


    The


    consequences could be dire, leading to instability and endangering the livelihoods of the people.


    Han looked at the final stage of Cup Stone King and thought to himself, “For the sake of the world,


    we definitely can’t change the dragon vein, let alone let people with ulterior motives enter the


    Geological Investigation Bureau.


    “I must win the Stone King Cup this time!”


    If the dragon vein fell into the hands of some people with ulterior motives, the consequences would be


    unimaginable. Instead of that, it was better to be in his hands.


    At the very least, he was now sessful and would not destroy the dragon vein. He could also ensure


    the prosperity of Longhard Kingdom.


    As time passed, the thirty people finished drawing lots. The ten groups of people had already been


    assigned their corresponding seats. The staff sent the number tes of the corresponding stalls to the


    participants.


    At the same time, the staff brought the participants to the designated stall in the orange area.


    Every piece of raw stone was covered with a special lid. It made it impossible to detect the details of


    raw stone in advance. It was very mysterious.


    Moreover, there were only 24 raw stone pills in each stall.


    Everyone got eight.


    *Reducing the total amount means that it will increase the difficulty of appraising. It will definitely be


    very difficult to distinguish these raw stone,” Han thought to himself.


    About five minutester, the ten groups of people arrived at their respective stalls and stood in three


    corners in a triangr formation.


    Han and Russel stood in the same stall, staring at each other with cold eyes.


    “Han, even if you don’t bet with me, you still have topete with me in the end.”


    Yussel didn’t even look at Hickman. He just stared at Han and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Jaber, now,


    do you want to make a bet with me?


    “If I win, I need you to kill someone for me.


    “If I lose, I’ll do whatever you want.”


    “If I remember correctly, you lost a bet with Mr. Griffith and you can’t harass me. Aren’t you afraid that


    Mr. Griffith will settle scores with you?” Han stared at Yussel with a cold gaze.


    What was this guy trying to do? He kepting to make a bet with him as if he would definitely win.


    Did he have to kill


    him?


    “I’m not harassing you. I’m just interacting with you normally. Anyway, we’re going to have a


    competition soon, right?” Yussel said.


    “Who do you want to kill?” Han asked.


    “You know this person too, Robert!” Yussel said.


    Han raised his eyebrows. “You have a grudge against him?”


    “Sort of. He must die!” Yussel said.


    When he mentioned Robert, his eyes shed with deep hatred and anger.


    Then, he sighed and said, “Unfortunately, with iny strength, I can’t kill Robert”


    With your strength, it’s indeed quite difficult to kill Robert, Han said indifferently


    Yssel stared at Han and said with a serious expression If you don’t want to bet, I’ll hire you. I’ll pay


    you 20 million dors to kill Robert for me. How about that?
