Chapter 18: The Arena
Entering the arena, I saw a huge staircase-shaped stand full of spectators waving bets, and under the steps was a parking lot, and the blast blasted off the top, and the faint orange color around it was faintly visible.
Two groups of people are fighting for their lives. There are no weapons, only fists and teeth, and there is no hope. I just hope to survive and eat a full meal.
The platform is square in shape, one level deeper than the plane next to it, probably to prevent the men from escaping.
At this time, there were already more than a dozen corpses around him, and each one was scarred in front of him. And there are still a few people in the middle who are fighting to the death.
With fists, legs and feet, heads, and even teeth, with everything on the body that can be used, the blood seems to be sprinkled on the ground without money. The sound of punching to the flesh made everyone in the stands excited. And every time a person falls, it causes a burst of cheers.
Watching the same kind fighting desperately in the gladiatorial arena, the voices in the stands shouted hoarsely, under the pressure of survival, the fear of the end times, the fear of zombies, as if this moment can be completely put aside.
"Is this still human?" Tang Dong said slowly.
He didn't have a taste in his heart.
What kind of ability is it to bully the same kind of people when they have the strength to face the zombies?
"What?" The consul, who was discussing cooperation with Wang Jing, walked over with an unkind face, "What do you say, little bastard?"
"Hey, hey, Brother Zhu!" Wang Jing saw that Tang Dong and Consul Zhu were a little violent, and hurriedly hugged Tang Dong while encircling Consul Zhu, "Brother Zhu, my brother just came in from outside, and he doesn't know the rules of the base." ”
Wang Jing pushed Tang Dong and kept giving him a look: "Hurry up, apologize to Brother Zhu!"
"Brother Zhu, I'm sorry!"
is as strong as Tang Dong, he also has to bow his head at this moment, and if he wants to build up his power, he must learn to bow his head.
Domineering, that's what the emperor does.
Now, I haven't ascended the throne yet!
Consul Zhu waved his hand, with his nose facing the sky, indicating that it was over.
That underwhelming look with that pair of gold-wire glasses, heh, what a big official!
"Is your brother in the war of people or the war of corpses?" he asked.
"Human-corpse war!" Tang Dong replied first.
Although he has become a zombie, he is still a human at heart, and he doesn't want to do anything to harm his fellow human beings!
Hearing this, Consul Zhu jumped up from his seat, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"Are you sure you want a corpse fight?"
"Sure!"
Tang Dong nodded suddenly.
Consul Zhu praised: "Okay, you have courage, Xiao Liu, the person you are looking for is good!"
Xiao Liu is talking about Wang Jing, this is his identity to the outside world.
At this time, the battle in the arena was also coming to an end, and the last "fighter" staggered to his feet after knocking his opponent to the ground with a hard punch, causing a burst of cheers in the stands.
"Tigers!"
"Tigers!"
The Tigers won and got a chance to survive. But the failed Goshawks will be punished.
In the stands, a middle-aged man in a formal suit scolded: "!
The failed Goshawks are even more miserable, they will be used to feed the zombies, regardless of whether they live or die.
The lifting door of the garage next to the arena opened, and a group of zombies rushed out, the number was hundreds, there were dozens of first-level zombies, and among them there was an agile second-level zombie, that is, the skinny zombie in Tang Dong's mouth.
A group of zombies saw the fresh flesh on the ground and pounced on it one by one.
"Help!"
"Please save me!"
The injured Goshawks struggled to be thrown to the ground, followed by a creepy chewing sound.
The second-level zombie was not interested in eating meat, and it yelled at the spectators in the stands, causing a frightened exclamation.
"The most exciting moment is coming! This is the first human-corpse battle since the establishment of the Island Lake Base! Later, we will launch a large-scale survival program in succession. Today is the first time, haha, well, let's invite our protagonist - people!"
When the host said the word "people", it obviously had a joking flavor.
The doors of a dozen garages were opened, and more than fifty shivering people came out of them, and then the lifting doors "slammed" and immediately shut.
Except for Tang Dong and a few others who were not afraid at all and were neatly dressed, everyone else had an indescribable stench.
Tang Dong suddenly realized that these people should also be sold, or there was some difficulty.
"Everyone... People!"
The host looked at everyone in the room with pity, "Oh, there's also a dynamic superman!"
"Hahahaha!"
The audience burst into laughter.
"All you have to do is kill the zombies in the arena, survive and get a sack of rice! The weapons are ready for you, it's on the ground, okay, let's get started, or the zombies will come to you after eating the meat on the ground." Haha!"
was already very scared, and was so frightened by the host in the loudspeaker, and several people even sat on the ground with their butts on their butts, with a puddle of yellow between their legs, emitting a burst of stench.
This drew another burst of laughter from the crowd in the stands.
"I'm betting on zombies!"
"I'm also betting on zombies!"
The odds are as high as 20 to 1!
The person who opened the market was also really bold, and he was not an unfounded opening.
There is a second-level zombie on the field, and humans have no guns and ammunition, only cold weapons.
Second-level zombies, especially agile ones, can easily wipe out a hundred-person squad with a gun, not to mention the dozens of remnants in front of them?
An investment earns 5%, and a fool won't do it!
But some people are expecting a miracle.
"I'm betting on a bag of rice for Superman!"
"Damn, you stupid, don't you want Dynamic Superman to release dynamic light waves and destroy zombies, right?"
"Lao Tzu has a lot of money, not enough to burn!"
This person is Wang Cong, the son of the richest man, and he recognizes Tang Dong's clothes.
But he couldn't be sure of Tang Dong's true strength, whether he could kill a second-level zombie.
"The headmaster is a. Lu Qian said in a strange tone, and took out a bag of white powder, "Come, try it, good goods!"
Wang Cong gave him a blank look: "Everyone knows that I never take drugs, you stupid!"
Lu Qian is the son of Lu Yang, the leader of the base, and he despises Wang Cong very much.
"I heard that some idiot was almost killed by a mysterious evolutionary this morning, and all his bodyguards were hanged!"
"Lu Qian, you're enough!"
Wang Cong endured his anger, if this was an ordinary person, he would have been shot a long time ago!
The dispute in the stands did not affect the progress of the "game".
After the zombies finished eating, they found that there were suddenly fifty more people in the venue. Suddenly attracted the attention of the zombies, and then a few zombies that approached screamed and pounced on the nearest few people?
The second-level zombie was very fast, and it fell to the front in the blink of an eye.
There is no hope!
Some of them sat on the ground in despair, while others had crazy looks in their eyes. Since Hengzhi is a death, if you fight hard, you may be able to make a living.
Most of them were sold, and it didn't end well for them to live or die.
The second-level zombies waved their claws, and the people clenched their weapons.
Five meters!
Two meters!
One meter!
"Squeak~"
This second-level zombie was a student before his death, wearing a full school uniform and sneakers.
The sneakers made a unique sound when they rubbed against the ground, and when they were close to Tang Dong, they actually stopped!
Immediately after, the other zombies also stopped.
Not only the people inside the stadium, but also the audience outside the stadium were shocked.
"What the hell?"
"Why did the zombies stop?"
", it shouldn't be the organizer who made it a ghost and wants both of them to eat!"
"Paralyzed, how can humans and zombies tie, the one who bets on the draw has made a profit!"
Outside the stadium, everyone talked about it, and some spectators even found the arena office with chips and guns!
"Come on, pour blood!"
The organizer couldn't bear the pressure, so he could only decide the flat situation and return the money.
At the same time, several large buckets of blood were splashed on Tang Dong and others, and some people originally had a fluke mentality, thinking that the zombies would not eat them, and their faces were like ashes in an instant.
Instinct triumphed over reason.
After all, the second-level zombie is simple-minded, it doesn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, it roars loudly, and rushes towards Tang Dong's side, and the rest of the zombies also rush up!
The first person was thrown to the ground by the zombies, and several zombies rushed over.
Then came the second, and then the third.....
