Section 195 Forcible seizure 11
Luo Jia pulled Lu Wu to a small aisle opening on the side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info There, several staff members carried the defeated wounded through the aisle. The wounded were placed on a stretcher. Although he did not appear to be seriously injured - of course, this is relatively speaking, he should have been beaten to the ground and his bones were in danger - but he was completely unconscious.
The small team didn't stay for even half a second because of Lu Wu's gaze, but Lu Wu had already clearly noticed that the ring on the loser's hand was gone.
To say that it was stolen or embezzled, Lu Wu didn't believe it at all. After all, this thing is very valuable, as long as the owner is not dead, sooner or later he will come back and ask for it. If this kind of thing happens again and again, it is estimated that this kind of gladiatorial arena or arena will not be able to open. So, there's obviously only one right answer.
"See, what the winner here gains, and what the loser loses, is actually that. ”
So it is, a battle with the magic ring as a bet. Lu Wu finally understood. "What do you mean...... As long as you win the ......"
"The magic ring in the other person's hand is yours. Luo Jia introduced. "So you see, the fighters who come to the stage here are not professional fighters, but ......"
“…… Someone who got the magic ring for some reason. Lu Wu muttered a correct explanation. It's a fight where the winner gets and the loser loses, with the magic ring as the bet.
But why is this kind of fight organized? And there's also the question of why that guy didn't die just now, especially the latter point. As a veteran (or at least experienced) user of the Mana Ring, Lu Wu knew very well that the blow just now was enough to shatter the bones of any living being. Even if you literally type out your brain, it's normal.
He immediately asked the question.
"Ah, this is what you think too much, Lu Wu, you see, that is the master here. Luo Jia pointed, and Lu Wu saw a man in blue on the edge of the ring. This kind of clothing is naturally reminiscent of labor clothes, but this man has a special momentum that makes people understand that he is not an ordinary person.
The master leaned to the side in a languid position, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the center of the ring. At this moment, another pair of gladiators came to the stage, and these two ended not as cleanly as just now. The two of you came and went, and they fought happily, which incidentally aroused waves of cheering in the audience.
The owner of the arena was in a position of absolute safety, as the shroud of unknown transparent material was clearly not something flesh and blood could break. As mentioned earlier, not to mention ordinary people who use magic rings, even the warlocks themselves, their strength has its limits after all. A powerful warlock may be able to break the joints of the exoskeleton's armor, but if he strikes his fist head-on at those high-tech steel armors, the only result is that his fists turn into flesh, and those thick armor will not do any harm. But he was obviously in an absolutely safe position, but under the lazy appearance, he was already nervous to the extreme. In fact, anyone who looks closely at it can see that the laziness is completely a disguise, and may even be just an illusion of others, and this person has been raised to the highest state of body and mind at the moment.
Suddenly, Lu Wu understood.
"Warlock?"
"That's right, Warlock. Luo Jia nodded. It's as simple as that, those fighters who came to power were only injured and not killed, and even the injuries were not necessarily serious, the key was because there were warlocks on the perimeter to provide protection.
At the most critical moment, the warlock uses his own strength to weaken the attacker's striking power, or to strengthen the defenses of the attacked. This turns the original fatal injury into a minor injury that can be easily healed.
"Don't underestimate him, this is not an event organized in private, but recognized by the higher-ups. Real casualties here, of course, are absolutely not allowed. Don't look at them all being carried out," Luo Jia gestured with his hand, and Lu Wu knew that he was referring to those defeated players. "Actually, it's almost nothing. Even the most serious ones are just the low-grade ones that can be active after five or six days. The few who were knocked down just now, I guess they will be able to move freely tomorrow. But even so, it's very profitable. To know this fight...... It's very popular here. ”
It should indeed be very popular, and although the game that ended immediately like that just now is not spectacular, the scene is really visually appealing. The two sides of the battle are up and down, and the action is overwhelmingly fast. Driven by magic, people can do all kinds of unimaginable, superhuman-like actions. It doesn't matter if it's practical, but it's really interesting.
Lu Wu has also watched a lot of fighting matches on Earth. There are live broadcasts, there are videos. But no matter what kind of competition it is, the feeling of the audience and the fighters is completely different. Maybe in the eyes of the fighter, the opponent's every move is as fast as lightning, but in the eyes of the audience, it is the same thing. When a boxer in the ring unleashes a jab that hits an opponent who can't dodge, it's usually more slow than fast.
For spectators who are in absolute safety and are in a relaxed mood, it is sometimes difficult to understand why such a supposedly proven professional martial artist can be hit with such a slow punch. Only after seeing more can you slowly understand that it is not that the fighter is dull and weak than the audience, but because the audience cannot experience the feeling of the fighter. In the eyes of the audience, a slow, slow, weak punch, in the eyes of the fighters, perhaps a clever and precise, elusive and impossible to dodge.
According to philosophers, humans are nothing more than a bunch of apes that have left the savannah. From the very beginning, humans were not creatures that excelled at physical strength. What humans are really good at is not their fists, but their brains, creating tools and using them to fight. Hand-to-hand combat, no matter what kind of hand-to-hand combat, if its purpose is to defeat the opponent, then it is destined to be unspectacle. Because this is essentially a manifestation of human shortcomings. Therefore, in terms of viewing, real fighting is definitely not as good as the kind of performance fighting in movies and television, let alone video games.
But now, driven by magic, things are completely different. As mentioned earlier, magic not only strengthens the body, but also strengthens the mind. The thinking speed of two people has exceeded the speed of ordinary people by many times or even dozens of times, and in this case, the brain can process enough information to make them do all kinds of things that normal people are completely out of reach. The two of them can be described as having a thousand tricks, changing movements, and always making moves beyond the limits of human beings.
One of them, extremely good at leaning back, is the so-called "Iron Plate Bridge" from the perspective of Chinese martial arts. He constantly uses this move to dodge enemy attacks and fight back. This wonderful action triggered enthusiastic cheers again and again, and even Lu Wu was unconsciously attracted by this dazzling and wonderful battle. The atmosphere and visuals are really good.
The end of the battle was somewhat surprising - in a high-jumping, condescending kick, one side may have been exhausted from the long battle, and finally showed a flaw that it should not have. The moment his attack missed, the enemy's counterattack landed accurately on the back of his head. Even with the assistance of the warlock on the side, the blow immediately knocked him unconscious.
In a battle of magical power, if it is only the body that is hit hard, then the blow is unreliable and does not even affect the battle. Because magic is to manipulate flesh and blood, and it doesn't need to be intact. But as soon as the brain is attacked, consciousness itself is immediately lost, and then the battle is over.
This time, things are much simpler. The victor spun around the stage several times to receive cheers, so Lu Wu clearly saw that a staff member took the ring from the loser's hand and presented it to the winner.
"Anyone can participate. Luo Jia beside him said. "Anyone can do it, as long as they have a ring. And camouflage is allowed here. If you don't want people to know who you are, it's perfectly fine to wear a mask. ”
"What do you mean...... Let me compete?" Lu Wu thought for a while, and there seemed to be no problem. The most important thing is that he has also learned martial arts with Amber for a while. Although he was mainly beaten, he was ...... It seems that there is no problem compared to the people I just saw.
Win a game to get a magic ring...... Even if it's second-hand, it's worth a lot. Now Lu Wu already knew that for most people, even if it was an aristocratic family such as the Evening Star Family, they would not have a stable way to obtain the magic ring.
This game is over. Maybe it's been several games in a row just now, so I'm taking a break for the time being. No new fighters came to power. Some of the audience waited in place, while others went to the upper floor in twos and threes.
Luo Jia signaled to Lu Wu that he had a little matter and needed to leave for a while. Lu Wu was left alone here to think about this proposal.
The performance of a few gladiators just now...... Even in terms of Lu Wu's standards, I feel that it is really not in the stream. In fact, while their martial arts look exciting, they're actually pretty clumsy. Especially the one who was knocked down by a sneak attack.
If he comes to power, will he be able to win? I dare not say 100 percent, but I should be 80 or 90 percent sure. Get a ring for every win...... Even if he loses, he can afford to lose, doesn't he?
"Partner, it's not wonderful. In the headphones, the voice of a master sounded. "I'm monitoring that Luo Jia's communications...... He said he would leave, but he just hid and manipulated his terminal. ”
"Terminal?"
"Well, it looks like I'm in contact with someone. I'll crack out his dialogue for you. The master said. “…… Things went more smoothly than expected, and I could tell that he would eventually be taken by his greedy tendencies...... Rest assured, those guys claimed to be ninety percent successful...... But we can intercept them in front of them, can't we? as soon as we do it on our side, their success will immediately become a castle in the air...... Ha ha...... Well, it is necessary to take more precautions, especially to strengthen surveillance, so as not to have any ...... True, their plan was really ingenious and completely grasped the ignorance of the target. It's really typical to sell people and help count the money...... However, they ignore the things of their competitors...... Well, I'll do it, and when it's done, remember the promised reward......"
"What does this mean, a private conversation?" Lu Wu really didn't understand.
"Partner, there's a lot of communication in this place. The master said helplessly. "I can confirm the signal sent by Luo Jia's terminal, but I can't confirm what kind of signal he is receiving. But I don't feel good, Luo Jia maybe...... Partner, watch your side!"
