Chapter 21: The Duel at the Bar

It was Rhy's turn to stay at the hotel, while Duroc made his way to the city of Aura.

Duroc went to a bar called Entertainment Bar and pushed open the half-person door.

The bar was smoky, with men smoking cigarettes in sip and women domineering like men slapping their legs and gambling with men.

The light was dim, and Duroc squeezed through the crowd. Coming to the bar, the waitress was a young girl.

The girl wore a checkered veil on her head, and two jet-black pigtails peeked out of the veil and hung naturally over her shoulders. A goose egg face was busy with sweat.

Seeing Duroc sit down, he just handed a big man next to him a glass of beer. Immediately walked up to Duroc, across the bar, the girl clubbed her hands on the bar, smiled and asked Duroc.

"What do you want, sir?"

"A beer, thank you!"

While answering the girl, Duroc noticed a strange tattoo on the girl's right arm. The reason why tattoos are strange is because they are tattooed with the totems of the dragon family. During many battles with dragons, Duroc had seen this totem many times. It is usually a pattern on the armor of a dragon warrior.

"Sir, your beer!"

Just as Duroc was stunned, the girl pushed a large glass of beer in front of Duroc.

"Thank you!"

"Sir, this is the first time you've come to the entertainment bar!" the girl asked Duroc suddenly

"How do you know?"

"Just look at your restrained look!" the girl replied to Duroc's question as she refilled a drink for another person at the bar. "But it's worth it for you to come here today!"

"Is it worth it?" Duroc brought the drink to his lips and put it down again.

"Yes! Look at that!" the girl pointed behind Duroc.

Following the direction the girl pointed, Duroc saw a high platform surrounded by a crowd that seemed to be a jousting ring.

"There's going to be a good game in a while!"

"Is there a regular game for this?"

"Every day!"

"Then why do you say I'm here for today?" Duroc asked

"Today is different, today is a three-year unbeaten champion here and a dark horse who has been on a winning streak this year. ”

Hearing the girl at the bar talk about today's game, Duroc didn't care. But the big man next to him talked to another person.

"Who do you think will win today?" asked Dahan

"I think it's a wrestling! He's a ruthless character who hasn't been in the ring for three years! You know, no one has ever won a streak before him!" "Last year, he ripped off his opponent's hand. If the other party hadn't admitted defeat in time, it is estimated that even his life would have been lost!"

"I'm quite optimistic about this year's dark horse. The bar girl said as she busied.

"Miss Vera seems to be very optimistic about this year's dark horse!" The big man drank the wine in the cup and said, "Bet in a while, will Miss Vera still play the dark horse?"

"Of course!"

"Hehehe......"

In front of the bar, people are still talking about today's game.

Duroc kept an eye on the crowd in the bar, and after a while, a middle-aged man in a black dress walked up to the ring where Vera, the girl at the bar, was pointing to the ring, holding the microphone in his hand.

He straightened his tie and then brought the microphone to his lips.

"Ladies and gentlemen, be quiet!"

Suddenly, the noisy bar became quiet. Except for the megaphones that echoed in the bar, the amplified host's voice was barely murmuring.

"The ring competition that everyone has been looking forward to for a year has officially kicked off today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, shouts and screams echoed in the bar.

"So!" the audience fell silent: "Are you willing to vote for those you support?"

"Willing to ............" was another shout

"Now!" the host raised his voice: "Bets, please!"

After that, two children, about fifteen years old, came out of the back hall of the bar. Wearing a large wooden box on his chest, one child's box reads Three Years of Champion, and the other is a dark horse. At the same time, they all had a dozen tickets in their hands.

One by one, they crowded into the crowd, and people put their money in the child's wooden box, and they got a ticket from the child.

One by one, the children collect their money until they reach the bar.

Most of the people voted for the wrestling, and when the two children came to Vera. Vera pulls out a bill from her pocket and puts it in the dark horse's wooden box to retrieve a ticket.

Duroc also voted for the dark horse casually, and the ticket he received was written with the words "The dark horse will win".

"Hey, Mr. New Kid!" Vera walked up to Duroc, "You're going to cast a dark horse too?"

"What's wrong?" replied Duroc in the affirmative

"It's nothing, it's just that novices should choose the most sure one."

"I'm betting!"

"Bet?"

"That's right! Almost nine out of ten people present at the polls voted for Wrestler. Duroc drank the rest of the glass and said, "I voted for a hundred pulls, and if I bet right, I might get a thousand pulls." ”

"And what if it's wrong?"

"It's just a loss of a hundred pulls!"

"Hehe," Vera laughed, "you seem to be a very shrewd person!"

"Neither are you!"

"Yes!" Vera didn't stop laughing, but laughed even harder: "Me too!"

Just as Vera was laughing uncontrollably, the presiding officer walked back into the ring.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" the audience fell silent: "Now is the official competition, please invite us to play the leading role." ”

With a thunderous scream, a huge tall burly elephant-like giant man walked up to the ring.

"Next up is this year's Champion of the Year!"

By the time the dark horse came out, the screams before the audience turned into most of the sighs.

A thin man walked up to the stage, although the bar was dimly lit. Duroc could still clearly see the pair of dragon wings behind the man.

"Is it Groot?" said Duroc

"Yes! It's Groot. Vera wiped the last glass in her hand, and then sat down in her chair with great interest.

"How could there be a Groot?" Duroc whispered

The host still said loudly: "Both sides are very strong, and now there is a pre-match matter to deal with." Please ask all the supervisors in the audience to witness, and the two sides sign a life and death certificate!"

The host read aloud the content of the birth and death statement: hereby with heavenly evidence, earth evidence, and human evidence. I am willing to duel with XX in the ring on June 19, the fifth year of the Junxia Dynasty, and I will die and die.

The two contestants on the stage signed and bowed to each other.

Duroc leaned against the bar, reclining against the bar. Watch the impending battle between humans and Groot.

"Now salute both sides!"

The two contestants saluted together.

The host walked between the two and yelled, "Go!"

With the start order issued, the host was like taking refuge from disaster. immediately rushed out of the ring with the life and death in his hand.

Cutlerie clenched his fists and made a creaking sound. Eyes staring at each other. Both men were cautious, moving slowly around the ring of the match.

The atmosphere became tense at this point, and there was a cacophony of shouting outside the arena.

Duroc: "What's that Groot's name?"

"His name is Ann. Vera replied, her eyes still on the ring as she answered.

"Ann?" Duroc was about to hear a sudden boiling shout as he echoed if there was such a person among the dragons.

When he turned around, the wrestling force had already attacked Ann. Ann flipped her wings and easily dodged the wrestler's attack.

Duroc suddenly remembered the battle with Wan Xiao, who also used this method to dodge his own attack.

Seeing that the attack was easily defused, the wrestling on the field immediately made up for it, but it still didn't hit.

Wrestler's attack is not unfast, but Ann's speed is even faster.

After a few back and forth, there was no substantive confrontation between the fools.

The audience has worn out all their patience and is desperately shouting.

"Wrestle, him!" "yes! Fight ......"

Groot, who is on the thin side, is like a piece of paper, easily dodging the opponent's attack.

Although the wrestling spirit was not discouraged because of the failure, it aroused the fighting spirit. Punch faster and more.

Ann began to look struggling, and the amplitude of her wings began to grow.

After a series of offensive and defensive battles, the wrestling force suddenly exerted force. Even Duroc was amazed that the wrestlers had such explosive power to increase their punch speed.

Ann didn't avoid it, but ate the punch hard. The whole body flew out and was blocked by the rope of the ring.
