CHAPTER XXXVI

Time passed quickly, Ryan only felt that he had rested in the room for a while, it was already noon, the three gladiatorial fights in the morning had all ended, and there were only sixteen people left who could continue to participate, and this time there were no byes.

When I came to the venue, the people at this time were almost there, but there were fewer people in the audience, only one-third left. Ryan and Al didn't stand together, after all, Al was disqualified.

Ryan was the youngest of the sixteen, and most of the others were over twenty years old, Ryan was somewhat impressed, but there was one exception, which he had never seen. It was a girl of eighteen or nineteen, who looked exceptionally thin. The sickly face has no energy, the originally delicate face looks haggard and distressing, and the dry black hair has lost its luster, it is hard to imagine that there will be such a number one person in the underground gladiatorial arena.

However, Ryan will not take this lightly, and being in the round of 16 is enough to tell. Ryan is already ready for the next arrangement, and when the time comes, he will admit defeat directly after playing twice, anyway, he was injured in the morning, and there is a reason to admit defeat.

However, when the host announced the personnel arrangements for participating in the gladiatorial fight, his eyes couldn't help but widen. The girl was actually sixty-one, right behind him and Al, and she had two byes, so Ryan had never seen her before.

"She's here."

"Captain Rondo, the target has appeared, then we ......"

"Well, get the news on, and we'll have to prepare it too." The man known as Rondo nodded with difficulty.

The afternoon gladiatorial fight was divided into two sessions, one time eight people played at the same time, and the ring in the middle was empty to determine the quarterfinals. Then there are two battles in the evening, eight into four, and four into two, and the final of the gladiatorial arena is intended to be saved until tomorrow, but the winner will get a C-level fighting skill, as well as a large amount of money.

The gladiatorial fight begins, and Ryan comes on the field to find that his opponent is actually his "acquaintance". Among the sixteen people, the three people he had met were among them, and the one in front of him was even more "intimate", and he didn't even care about her concern.

"Sister Ellie, it's actually you." Ryan looked at the other party carefully, and it was a coincidence that Ryan had never seen Ellie make a move, and it seemed that every time Ellie's gladiatorial fight was after him or Al, Ryan and Al's gladiatorial fight was more difficult, and after winning, he went back to rest, and didn't pay attention to the play after them. At this time, the opponent turned out to be her, and Ellie was still the same as before, holding a doll in her hand, not at all like she had come to participate in a gladiatorial fight.

"Little brother Ryan, I didn't expect it to be you, how is it, after a noon rest, are you better? Did you use the pill I gave you? Ellie asked again in her delicate childish voice.

"Oh, of course, it feels so much better, my right hand can barely move. It's thanks to you, sister! Ryan lied without jumping eyelids, and as for the pill, Ryan didn't move. The pills are different ointments, and the ingredients in them are difficult to distinguish, and there are more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, and more than hundreds of medicinal materials are processed and refined, and if some condiments are added to them, they will not be detected at all.

"Hehehe, then I'll be relieved." Ellie said this on her lips, but she didn't think so in her heart, it was best that Ryan's physical injuries were as serious as possible, as long as there was no damage in terms of mental strength.

"Well, this fight ......," Ellie muttered.

"Of course it's Sister Ellie, you won." Ryan didn't want to fight, so he just admitted defeat directly, but the play still had to be acted, and the conversation changed, "But I want to learn from Sister Ellie's tricks." ”

"Huh?" Ellie didn't know why, she didn't think that Ryan didn't know her details, so she didn't think that Ryan hadn't actually seen her gladiatorial fight once.

"You don't have to go all out, just one move, I want to see where the gap between me and Sister Ellie is?"

"Oh, well, sister, I won't show mercy." Ellie didn't know what Ryan was having, her words weren't just talking, but she really planned to be ruthless, after all, anything could happen in this gladiatorial arena, and she didn't want to die in the ring.

After nodding his head to signal the other party, Ryan slowly drew out his long sword, usually carrying the sword with his right hand, but this time Ryan also held the sword with both hands.

Softly chanting the incantation, Ryan's long sword beeped and trembled with excitement, and Ryan couldn't hold it anymore.

Suddenly, with a flick of the long sword, Ryan quickly drew a cross in the air, and the blue and white light that sprayed thin sword qi galloped forward, this time Ryan used fifty percent of his strength, and the cross-shaped sword qi was inspired by his fighting qi mixed with magic power through the long sword.

When he fought with Tyrone, he found that Dou Qi and magic power could be fused with each other in a certain proportion, and the power after fusion was more than twice as powerful as before. If you fuse the magic of one part with the fighting energy of one part, then the power that is stimulated is not just the power of two parts, but four parts. However, Ryan didn't dare to fuse too much, his strength was limited, once this force was too strong, he couldn't control it at all, and dying by exploding was the best result.

Ellie didn't dare to despise Ryan's cross slash at all, and the doll in her hand was slapped by her and stopped straight in front of her.

"What is he going to do?" Ryan and Al don't know if they have a tacit understanding after being together for a long time, or if they have some special connection, and they actually gave birth to this idea at the same time.

"Can you stop it with this stuffed animal?" Ryan was suspicious, he didn't think that the other party was looking for death, that plush toy was either made of some special substance, comparable to gold and stone. Or it's also something similar to a puppet, capable of defending and counterattacking.

Ryan was more inclined to the latter, after all, he had seen the stuffed animal up close, and he didn't find anything special.

Poof, the stuffed animal suddenly swelled as if it had been inflated, and its fluffy and soft appearance looked like it would be easily cut into four pieces.

Ellie's face was solemn, he could feel the power of the cross slash, and hurriedly controlled the doll, which was already large enough to completely cover her figure.

The fluffy fluff stood up at the roots, and the soft body stiffened, and then the metallic luster instantly spread, and the plush toy instantly turned into a lump of steel.

The huge sound of "bell" sounded, and the cross sword qi slashed on it and suddenly submerged into it, and the scattered sword qi scurried in the body of the toy, and suddenly made a noisy sound, and the erected fluff broke a large piece, and the iron-like toy was shocked and took a few steps back, and when the stamina disappeared, Ellie was obviously relieved.

Suddenly, Ryan's long sword fell to the ground all of a sudden, his right hand twitched unconsciously, and his face was already covered with sweat.

Ellie's hand caressed the hardened toy, making some special handprints on her hand, and then the metallic luster faded, and the steel needle-like fluff returned to softness, except that some of the hairs broke and looked a little thinner.

When she saw the cross-shaped notch on her beloved toy's chest, Ellie gasped, a chill permeated her head to her feet, and even her anger at the damage to her beloved toy was diluted. She didn't know much about the doll's defense, and this was just sword energy, she looked at Ryan with some aw.

Ryan looked very bad at this time, his left hand clutched his right arm, his teeth torn apart, and his face was full of pain.

"Little brother Lane, are you alright?" Ellie's face was concerned, as if this was not the ring.

"It's okay, I'm throwing in the towel." After saying that, Ryan lowered his head in a low mood, and walked off the field by himself, the goal was achieved, he didn't stay long, picked up the long sword and left.

"Hmph, it's not light on your hands." A smile appeared on Ellie's lips, but the thought of her beloved doll immediately made her feel distressed again. Her stuffed animal was a small bear, and after a large cut in her chest, her original cute appearance became vicious, which made her very angry.

"Stinky boy, you'll have a good time in the future." He spat viciously, and then walked out of the ring with a smile.

Back in the room, the look of pain on Ryan's face had subsided a lot, he was mostly pretending, and seeing that the number of people in the audience was smaller, he knew that the attack of the church was about to come.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, as if lightning was passing overhead, and a thunderclap rang in my ears, followed by the sound of something shattering.

There was a violent shaking of the feet, the furniture in the room was staggering, and the sound of doors opening and shouting was everywhere.

"Here, the guardian magic array is shattered." Glancing at each other, Ryan and Al became nervous at the same time, no matter what the purpose of the church was, they were just ants, and no one cared about their lives, so they could only rely on themselves.

The two of them did not rush out immediately, but opened the door with a panicked face, let them go, and then walked out as if they didn't know anything. At this time, the scene was chaotic, and there were people scurrying around, and there were people participating in gladiatorial fights, but most of them were injured. And then there were the spectators, all of whom were rich boys, who had seen such a scene, calling out for their own guards and screaming in panic.

Through the noisy crowd, Ryan came to the gladiatorial arena, at this time the second battle of sixteen into eight had just begun, and the contestants looked around suspiciously, as if they did not know whether to continue.

Then another tremor came, but this time it was much smaller than the previous one, but it was very dispersed, one in the east and one in the west. Every time an explosion sounds, it is accompanied by a vibration, and it takes a few minutes of intermittent intermittent action before the anomaly ends.

The ground was full of cracks, rocks were constantly falling overhead, lights were flickering, and figures were flickering. Some two- and three-story buildings collapsed, and all the people inside were buried underneath. The purpose here is to find excitement and enjoy luxury, and it will not build a strong house at all, not to mention that the magic array of the guardian has been destroyed, and a few shocks can destroy a large part of the house.

"Is it finally stopped? What's going on with this damn sound and the earthquake? Someone yelled angrily.

"Hey, hey, it's just the beginning!" Ryan said, glancing at the man.
