70 Chapter 70 : Hundred Crores each

"Das, I'm also curious. Why did you bet twenty thousand crores? Do you have that much money?" The old man asked as Ruth aunty is looking at Das with a curious look.

"No... I just used that bet as a decoy... how could I possibly have that much money?" Das commented casually. Actually, Das don't want reveal the truth to the old man... Das decided to find a suitable excuse before directly placing the bet during the peace meeting at Abdullah house.

"Haha... I also thought the same thing." The old man said with a lite laughter.

"Anyway, the Shetty is not going to back down from this challenge and they will definitely pressure you to participate in this challenge."

"Das, you don't need to worry... I asked Mr. Li to take of your safety during the fight." The old man said with an assuring tone.

"Yes Das, Mr. Li is the number one in battle strategies and he is also specialised in the formations. Whereas Ms. Ruth is here to give a special training to our fighters." The patriarch replied in support to his father.

Mr. LI and his sister Ruth were giving proud looks as the patriarch and old man are praising them continuously.

"Patriarch, if you don't mind, could you explain me the blood duel in more detail... I can't clearly understand why we need a formation master and trainer." Das asked with a requesting tone as he sat down across the table.

Mr. Li gave a scornful look as Das is sitting along with them. But Ruth completely ignored this scene as sat with a stoic face.

"Das, during the blood duel... the fighters from the both families will enter inside a large open ground with one type of outfit for each family. But all exits will be closed after start of the fight. Inside the arena the fighter from both families have to fight with only bare fists. No other weapon is allowed inside the arena."

"The Abdullah family look after this fight... if they found out that any fighters is using the weapons... they will immediately use arrows or snipers to kill that person."

"Then how did they decide the victor... killing people would be way more troublesome in the mass fist fight." Das interrupted the patriarch.

"Haha... That is the cruelty if this blood duel, the victor will be decided if all the opponent family fighters died or the majority of the fighters kneeled down on the ground. Whichever the case... the Abdullah family will decide the victor based on the situation." The old man explained with a serious look. nOvE)lb-1n

"What!!!... who would participate in this... isn't complete madness. How many people will participate... even after knowing the danger of this blood duel?" Das asked as he is seriously thinking about the consequences.

"The chances of death are certain in this fight... is there any other way?" Das asked again as he never expected the end result of the blood duel would be more cruel.

"That is why I seriously denied this blood duel when the Shetty family proposed it... But the presence of these important guests and my daughter-in-law's decision made me agree to this cruel challenge." The patriarch replied with an impatient look.

"Das, what you asked is a valid question, the normal servants and fighters won't participate in this blood duel knowing that there is a chance of certain death. That why we are recruiting people by using a large amount of wealth." The old man replied with a meaningful glance.

After listening to the old man, Das understood why the patriarch arranged a large meeting with all his supporters during yesterday night. The Reddy family need to gather enough resources and money to prepare for this upcoming blood duel.

"Das, it's not about fighters we are worried about... it's money. In order to prepare for this challenge my family spending more than five thousand crores. We may need to spend more than this after checking the situation with the Shetty family." The patriarch said with a dull face.

Even though the Reddy family had a large amount of wealth... sending five thousand crores just for one event is a big issue for them as they need to move the liquid funds.

"Patriarch, how many fighters are you planning to recruit?" Mr. Li asked after listening to revenue spending.

"We are thinking to recruit around a thousand good fighter... but if needed my family is ready to recruit more people as I'm making arrangements for the liquid cash by selling some valuable properties." The patriarch answered to Mr. Li's question with a respectful tone.

"Ohh... patriarch what I suggest you is that obtain more information from the Shetty family... we can only prepare after knowing their plans." Mr. Li said while thinking deeply about something.

"Yes, Mr. Li... I already sent some spies to gather this information. We will have clear understanding after the peace meeting." The patriarch replied.

"By the way patriarch how much Mr. Li and Ms. Ruth are charging for their service..." Das asked with a curious look while looking at them.

"Hundred crores each. Do you have any problem?" Ms. Ruth gave reply to Das with a taunting look.

"Why would I have a problem... it's not my money." Das replied staring back at Ruth. After chatting for few more minutes, Mr. Li stood up to leave.

"Patriarch, we will stay at the training centre until the end of Blood duel. In the meantime, try to recruit more capable people and send them to the training centre. My sister will properly guide them at the training centre." Mr. Li said before leaving the table along with his sister Ruth.

The patriarch nodded his head and followed them to the main gate to give a proper send-off. Inside the room, only the old man and Das stayed behind to discuss more about the blood duel.

Das is going to put a twenty thousand crores bet on this duel. So he has to know the exact situation of the Reddy family preparation for this challenge.
