Chapter Fifty-Six: The Game Begins
Early in the morning of the second day
Rhodes, Sanji, and X all got up early, and just after breakfast, Charliega sent someone. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
A man with a similar taste to Charles, with the same thick foundation on his face, and a man who was neither male nor female, came to their room in Rhodes.
"It's seven o'clock in the morning, the gladiatorial competition will enter at eight o'clock, and the competition will officially start at half past eight, so please go to the gladiatorial arena with me to compete. The man didn't introduce himself, and he finished talking as soon as he came.
"It's so urgent. Rhodes put on his coat, "Then lead the way." ”
……
After about ten minutes of riding in the carriage, they reached the outside of the gladiatorial arena.
This gladiatorial arena is somewhat similar to the Roman gladiatorial arena in Rhodes' impression, after all, Rhodes seems to have seen a Roman gladiatorial arena in photos in his previous life.
"Big, isn't it? This is the largest gladiatorial arena in the Great Voyage with a capacity of 30,000 spectators. Charlesa arrived, proudly pointing to the tall building.
"Looks pretty good. Rhodes can feel the joy of fighting here, "I'm looking forward to the next game." ”
Charlie Gahaha laughed and said, "Then come in." ”
After entering, Rhodes and his gang were taken by Charlie Gary to the area where the contestants gathered, and there seemed to be no less than two hundred contestants gathered here, after seeing Rhodes and his gang coming, most of the contestants ignored these young people, and there was a man who looked like a giant and had a huge cannon muzzle installed behind his back and made a deep voice: "Three more guys looking for death, hahaha!"
"That is the shore defense cannon Darkel, whose Dao strength is worth more than two thousand five hundred. "Charliega is not surprised by this, the guy laughs at every time he sees a new player coming.
"Hey, stupid big man, are you the one who called Cannon Son?" Rhodes yelled at Darkell.
Darkel, who was about to rest and prepare for the game for a while, heard the young man not only scolding himself but also calling himself by the wrong name, so he strode over and yelled, "Do you want to die!"
In the face of Darker's raised fist, Rhodes was unmoved, but Charliga hurriedly stopped: "Hey, Darker, don't forget the rules! If you do this, you will be disqualified from the competition!"
"Damn!" Darker put away his fists, "you impatient fellow, better we can be in a big group, I'm going to crush you alive!"
"I wish it could be in a group, hahaha!" Rhodes just wanted to laugh when he saw that Darkel, who had been arrogantly scolding him just now, could only threaten because of the rules of the gladiatorial arena.
The atmosphere was full of gunpowder, and Charlie patted Rhodes and whispered, "Don't say it!"
"Well, listen to you, Charliega. Rhodes also stopped sarcastic.
Soon it was eight o'clock, and after all the contestants had arrived, the referee threw the wooden sign with everyone engraved into a bucket and the lottery began.
"A big group, Tim, Sean, Richie, ......"
"Two groups, Duckell, Taylor, Howard, ......"
……
"Four groups, Hank, Bowen X, Greenton, ......"
"Five groups, Abner Rhodes, Sanji, Carlyle, ......"
Nearly 300 people were distributed, and Darkel, who had just shouted that it was better not to meet in one group, came to the second group, X was selected in the fourth group, and Rhodes and Sanji were selected in the fifth group.
After the grouping was completed, it was close to half past eight, and the audience in the audience was basically full, and the contestants began to prepare.
"Do you know what the other purpose of participating in the competition is?" asked Rhodes and X.
"Learn, progress, get stronger. X replied.
Rhodes said: "That's right, so now is the best opportunity to learn about combat, and I'll watch it with my eyes wide open." ”
Great voyage, and to be able to be chosen, everyone has more or less their own ability. Gladiatorial fights are for the audience, it's entertainment, it's a great opportunity to learn how to fight from other people's fighting for free.
The first group to enter is the first large group, with a total number of about 70 people, and ten of them will be determined to advance to the next round, that is, only one of the seven people can go down. It's undoubtedly dangerous and brutal, but the crowd just loves it.
The playing field in the center of the arena is roughly estimated to cover an area of at least 7,000 square meters, which is about the size of a standard football field in Rhodes's previous life.
This area is more than enough for a big melee of seventy of them.
After a large group of contestants have all entered and are ready, the competition officially begins with the referee's order.
When he first arrived, because the players were at their peak, the battle was fierce, and the audience was greeted with exclamations, and the bets in the shadows began, and Charliega was busy with this, and he began to lose sight of people.
And the final ten people were decided after more than half an hour of death-to-death battles.
After clearing the field, the second group took to the field, with Ducker being the most eye-catching, and he seems to have played in many games, attracting countless exclamations as soon as he appeared.
"That guy doesn't look simple. Sanji couldn't even smoke anymore and was busy watching the game.
"The giants themselves have many advantages, so don't care. Rhodes said.
Just as they were talking, the match between the two groups officially began, and Darker alone was like a huge mountain, and no one could stop him wherever he went.
Seeing that the Darker people were blocking and killing, the god blocked and killed the god Rhodes said: "This is forcing other contestants to join forces to deal with him, what a stupid big man." ”
"It's rampant enough to have this strength. Every blow from Darkel shook the audience, and X, whose palms were inexplicably covered with sweat, said.
Rhodes reminded: "X, don't be too anxious about the game for a while, you can defend in the early stage, exert force in the later stage, and you can also find someone who can join forces, this game is not so simple." ”
"Well, got it. X's heart warmed.
"What a coincidence, that guy Apu is actually in a group with you. Rhodes touched X.
"Apu, is that guy worth 1,005 yuan?" X didn't expect that his four major groups would also have an S-rank, so he couldn't help but be even more nervous.
Rhodes didn't care, and said, "Now you can rest assured, and then you can unite with him." ”
"With him?" X shook his head and smiled wryly, "How could he agree? ”
"When the time comes, you can tell him that you are one of Rhodes' men. Rhodes continued to watch the game with his chin in one hand.
"Huh?" X doesn't understand, could it be that Rhodes and that Apu know each other?
Rhodes said softly: "No accident, that Apu will be our partner in the future." ”
