Chapter Seventy-Two: The Uninvited Guest
"Al, are you down there?" Ryan probed his head and looked at the small black hole, but the hole was small and black, and there was so much dust that he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Pull me, quick, I'm dying."
There was a sullen voice from Al at the entrance of the cave, and when Ryan heard it, he let go of the anxiety in his heart, Al was really not dead, but looking at his fiery voice, it seemed that something was wrong.
Lying down, Ryan scratched underneath in the dark, but didn't catch anything, and couldn't help but wonder.
"Hurry up, what are you doing, I'm dying." There was a weak voice from below. Ryan was also a little anxious when he heard this, and the whole person lay on the ground, stretched out his hand, and scratched again, and finally touched Al's body.
"Feet?" The expression on Ryan's face was very interesting, he knew why Al was in such a hurry, it was not the injury caused by the battle at all. Stuck in such a small hole, still head-down, it is estimated that there is a lack of oxygen.
Grabbing Al's legs, Ryan used all his strength to pull Al's carrot out. After seeing the light of day again, Al still maintained the position of holding the dagger above his head, and gasped for air with a red face. After regaining consciousness for a while, he looked around fiercely.
"Don't worry, no one is here but me." Ryan knew what Al was watching out for, "You go back and rest first, and I'll clean it up for you." ”
"You go and help me get the energy crystal nucleus of the clay puppet back, and as for the magic silver, I will collect it myself." At this point, Al's mood was low.
Patting him on the shoulder, Ryan didn't say anything and walked away silently.
Back in the room, Ryan casually threw the energy crystal nucleus of the recovered clay puppet to Al, although there were many cracks, but the key parts were not damaged, and it could be used, but the speed of absorbing the energy in the earth would decrease, but when there was time, it would be buried in the soil and absorb the energy of the earth, and it could be repaired in a while.
"What's going on, can it still be fixed?" Sitting down beside Al, Ryan asked with concern.
"I don't know." Al stared blankly at the magic silver in his hand, which had been restored to a silver chain, and replied listlessly.
"I've never seen this before, it seems that the communication with the silver chain is blocked, and there is a barrier." Al frowned, he finally had a breakthrough and was able to have a spiritual connection with the silver chain, but this happened again immediately, how could he not be discouraged?
There was a knock on the door, Al put away the silver chain, and Ryan got up to open the door.
The young man in black with a crow who knocked on the door, but he didn't bring the crow at this time, for him, Ryan was not surprised, no matter who saw Al's gladiatorial fight, as long as he was not stupid, he could find Al's potential. After inviting the other party in the door, the young man in black spoke directly.
"Hello, Ryan. My name is Rick, and I am the person in charge of the gladiatorial arena" The young man in black sat down very naturally, as if he felt the expression of El Shengren's incloseness, he directly ignored Al, according to what he learned, Al is relatively dull and generally doesn't talk much, so it's right to ask Ryan for something, anyway, what Ryan decides, Al generally doesn't object.
"Hello." The other party can eat in the dueling arena at such a young age, either because of his extraordinary strength, or because he is related to the high-level of the dueling arena, no matter which one it is, it is not something that Ryan can offend at this stage, so Ryan also responded politely.
"In the morning, I watched your gladiatorial fight, it was very exciting. It looks like you're being suppressed by the other side and narrowly winning. But I can see that you're not doing your best. With a distance of more than three meters and nearly four meters, a tumble can't roll so far. As soon as the young man in black came up, he didn't hide his admiration for Ryan. Then he said, "El is even more outstanding, the silvermancer, the puppet summoning, and the exquisite martial arts have opened my eyes." ”
"yes, you've won a prize." Ryan was silent on the surface, but in fact, his heart did roll, and he said that he didn't give it his all, and he was indeed right. Although he was suppressed, he could dodge it all over again, using the Wind Blade at the same time. The other party mentioned that he used the process of light body technique, which should have been seen by him, but it didn't matter, Ryan didn't think that he could be busy with everyone. As for Al, he exposed too many things in this battle, and the other party didn't mention Ayr's butterfly, which was a gesture of goodwill, so as not to embarrass everyone. But it's also possible that it's to make the two of them let their guard down.
"No, there is a lack of talents like you in the gladiatorial arena." Rick said very much, not at all like the appearance of just met, but like an old friend for many years.
For Reek's straightforward solicitation intentions, Ryan just wanted to refuse. Rick said again, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, I know that your heart is not small, and I am afraid that this underground gladiatorial arena will restrict your freedom?" ”
Ryan paused for a moment, Reek said it so bluntly, and then he would definitely come up with a reason why Ryan couldn't refuse.
"Your goal is a C-level fighting skill, if you need it, I can give it to you directly." Reek looked at Ryan with a smile, but he knew that this condition would not impress Ryan. He continued, "Besides, I know what you're here for. It's completely to avoid trouble, although there are fewer people who know about this underground world, but the most people who come here are those rich boys, they have more or less their own forces and many eyes and ears behind them, if someone really wants to catch you, you can't run away at all. ”
When Ryan heard the previous words, he was a little moved, but it was only tempting, and he was not able to agree, but the latter words made his little heart twitch fiercely.
He also knew that what the other party said was good, but there is a set of rules everywhere, although there is a fight here, but it can't be on the table, and it can't see the light, as long as it is properly grasped, this is the safest place. But if the other party said so, he didn't have any bottom at all, and Rick undoubtedly represented the gladiatorial arena, and the gladiatorial arena was the most powerful of the underground forces.
"Although this underground world is mixed, there is no fighting on the surface, because there is naturally a set of rules and order here." Reek looked directly into Ryan's eyes and said word by word, "No one can snatch other people's belongings for no reason, violators, die!" ”
Ryan could feel the resoluteness of the sentence, which was both a protection and a threat.
Do not steal other people's belongings for no reason. Hehe, Ryan laughed, if he dared not agree, he believed that the gladiatorial arena could arrange countless reasons for him. For now, as long as the wind came and the church attacked because of him, without the use of the gladiatorial arena, everyone here would tear him to shreds and fight each other for his things.
"I want to think again." Ryan has no choice, refusing is the most unwise thing to do, the other party has already revealed the meaning that he can give him C-level fighting skills directly, if he agrees, he can become his own person, and he can give fighting skills, not to mention others. But if you don't agree, if you leak this news, it will definitely damage the reputation of the gladiatorial arena.
"No problem, I'm not reluctant. Since we threw out the C-level fighting skills, it means that we have better things, and the development of the gladiatorial arena for so many years, the profound heritage is not at all what you can imagine. Kree smiled softly, "To tell you the truth, this time the big arena may not be held so smoothly, if you want to get a C-level fighting skill, this is the only chance." ”
With that, Kree leaves, leaving only Ryan and El in deep thought.
"What do you think?" Al spoke without saying a word after Kree left.
"It seems that what Ellie said is true. Now I can be sure that the church is going to attack this place. Ryan looked uncomfortable, which meant that it was impossible to win a C-rank fighting skill by normal gladiatorial fighting, and the only way to join the gladiatorial arena was to join it.
"You want to join?" Al glanced at Ryan, he didn't want to join, and if Ryan insisted, he didn't know what to do? But luckily, Ryan shook his head firmly.
"What are you kidding, don't look at what he says, I don't know how he will die when the time comes." Except for Ryan's rich family background in the gladiatorial arena, the rest of Ryan didn't look at it.
"When Uncle Chamme deceived people and joined forces to be cannon fodder, he said 10,000 times better than him, I don't believe that the gladiatorial arena has no means to control people, and it is the best result to become a thug training, and if you are unlucky, you will be put on the stage like a dog to fight and die, give people appreciation, and become a tool for others to bet and make money."
"And what are you going to do?" Al couldn't figure out Ryan's intentions.
"Tomorrow, let's continue to fight as if nothing happened." Ryan said as a matter of course.
"Isn't it impossible to get? Are you still? Al was puzzled.
"Do you believe it or not, I'm the first one tomorrow, he has already figured out your strength, and of course he wants to see where my limit is?" Ryan smiled darkly, "Since he wants to see it, why don't you let him see it clearly?" ”
Ryan's sinister smile made Al look a little uncomfortable, but the shady and domineering of the gladiatorial arena really annoyed him, and he was able to pit them, and Al approved with both hands.
"Knock knock." Shortly after Reek left, there was another knock on the door. Motioning for Al to lie down on the bed and Ryan to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a woman's perfume smell came to my face, and a little girl-like voice came into my ears, "Hey, little brother Lane, my sister has come to see you." ”
You don't have to look at Ryan to know who it is, and I don't know why these women who are slightly older than him always like to call him that.
He asked angrily, "What are you here for?" ”
"I'm so distressed that Al is injured, why can't I come over and take a look?"
The hairs all over Ryan's body stood on end at once, and goosebumps fell to the ground. "You know he's injured and you're bothering him?"
Ellie tries to enter, but the door is blocked by Ryan, who can be seen lying on the bed with his back to her.
"Hehehe, that's really disturbing." Ellie's face is not ordinarily thick, but when it comes to her escape, she doesn't dare to be sloppy, "So how is he now?" ”
"I'm sorry for your concern, I can't die, as for the cooperation between us, there should be no big problem, but that stone puppet may not be used."
"Oh, that's it, it's okay, it's okay." Ellie touched the fullness on her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
