Chapter 224: Signing
"Chen Fan, seventeen years old, a first-class beast master, from the ancient dragon mountain......"
Deep in the iron-blooded roaring arena, in a slightly dazed temple, a middle-aged man was looking at the animal skin scroll in his hand.
It was a piece of information about Zhou Ming's identity, which had just been presented by Sun Long himself.
"This is a good seedling, be more guarded, lest it be poached by other arenas!"
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Sun Long on the side and said, "Amazing, being able to domesticate a mere beast to such an extent that it can be trained into a force at the level of only seven grades, and the ability to tame beasts is already top-notch." This young man, if he is cultivated, will definitely do something in the future. Sun Long, you should observe carefully, check carefully in secret, and make sure that his way is correct enough. In recent days, there have been more and more spies on the side of the Shanhai Kingdom, and there are no ill-intentioned people who are trying to infiltrate our army through the channel of the gladiatorial arena. We must guard against this!"
"General Mu, please rest assured, I will carefully observe and ensure that I don't miss any clues!"
Sun Long reassured. The person in front of him is the supreme person in charge of this big arena, and he is a veteran general in the iron-blooded roaring army, with great achievements and unparalleled bravery, but because there are some problems in cultivation, he has to temporarily retreat to the second line and come here to sit here. In his mind, this person is absolutely untouchable, and he has always admired him very much.
"In the first battle, he was upset and defeated the well-known Ape Teng. Chen Ping's son is now a little famous. In that case, then set the stage for him. I want to see how much potential this son has. If you can trust it, it will be a great achievement to be included in my iron-blooded roaring army!"
General Mu waved his hand, revealing a little expectation.
Sun Long also had the same idea in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel good for a while, and then asked for some instructions before exiting here.
At the same time, Zhou Ming had already settled down in a stone temple in the big arena. In his opinion, everything is going very well.
Today is just the first day.
I have to say that he was treated very well. This temple is located inside the arena, and there is a full guarantee of security. This hall is divided into an inner hall and an outer hall. In addition to the main hall for receiving guests, the outer halls on both sides are the dwellings of the servants. The environment of the inner hall is hidden, obviously specially prepared for the beast master, the door is closed, and there is no fear of being spied on when cultivating inside.
"Master, your food is ready!"
While Zhou Ming was looking around, there was a knock on the door of the inner sanctum, and a decently dressed girl walked in with hot food and drink.
"Brute meat, what a mellow wine!"
Zhou Ming's eyes lit up, and his appetite was suddenly aroused. The city deserves to be called a city, and it can be seen from this fragrance alone that the cooking level here is far from being comparable to that of the Qinghu Department. And this wine, the fragrance is filled with a faint wild smell, which is obviously not ordinary. This wine, must have come from the hands of the beast master, and it was kneaded with some wisdom of the way of the wild.
After the girl put the food on the table, Zhou Ming finally moved her gaze to the servant. Although this woman's appearance is not amazing, it is definitely above the level, neatly dressed, well-behaved, refreshing, and her skin is quite delicate. This is obviously not a woman who has lived in the mountains for a long time.
She looked too normal, just like the earthlings in Zhou Ming's memory, but she was dressed more plainly.
However, it is precisely because of this that her fate is so humble. In her, the wild aura is very thin, and it is destined to be difficult to become a beast master.
"You were born in the city?"
Zhou Ming picked up the chopsticks, and before he took his mouth, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's your name?"
"The master just calls me Ling'er. ”
The girl bowed slightly, stepped aside tamely, stood with her hands down, and replied respectfully: "Ling'er is from Huanglong City, she grew up in the city since she was a child, and so are her parents and grandfathers!"
When Zhou Ming heard this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
The more civilized the place, the more difficult it is to give birth to a beast master, which is by no means untargeted. Cities are undoubtedly the crystallization of human civilization in this world. It's just that this kind of civilization is the biggest obstacle to the way of the wild. Even in cities built around ancient beast tombs, the percentage of people born in the city who were born to beastmasters is very low. In the average family, the odds are even lower. In the long run, their bloodline and material conditions will only get worse and worse, and they are destined to drift away from the way of the beast master.
This problem is almost unsolvable.
It is no longer possible for human beings to return to the way they lived in ancient times. Gathering allows the race to prosper and grow, but the civilization that is bred after gathering gradually makes the wildness gradually disappear.
The maid Ling'er is just a small microcosm.
In a new military town like Hornrock, the proportion of orcists can account for forty percent of the terrifying. But in the other cities of the kingdom, it is already a miracle that the proportion of beast masters can account for one percent.
In essence, the major cities have long been the world of ordinary people.
Although Zhou Ming sighed in his heart, he was helpless. No one can reverse this trend. He certainly wasn't arrogant enough to try to reverse the tide. That great dream, with his current ability, was completely wishful thinking.
"Master, Lord Sun is here to see you!"
Zhou Ming had just finished eating, and a little guy walked in with a smiling Sun Long.
"Are you still used to it?"
Sun Long naturally sat down opposite Zhou Ming and asked enthusiastically.
"It's not as free as in the mountains, but it's not bad. ”
Zhou Ming waved his hand and said lightly.
"That's good! That's good!"
Sun Long sat up slightly and said in a deep voice, "Master Chen, I don't know what the matter of cooperation is thinking about?"
Zhou Ming raised his eyebrows and said straight to the point: "Commander Sun, do you know why I chose this place, instead of those first-class arenas?"
"Oh?
Sun Long looked curious. Now, he no longer dares to underestimate the young man in front of him. He knew that the young man in front of him couldn't help but be very confident, and very shrewd.
"Except for one thing, this is the arena under the Iron Roaring Legion. ”
Zhou Ming puffed up his chest slightly, pressed his palm against the edge of the table and said, "Right now, there are only two legions in the eastern border, one is the Demon Snake Legion, and the other is the Iron-blooded Roaring Legion. I came out of the mountains, and I must make a career. So, I had to join the army. Only the battlefield can allow me to give full play to my full play and create immortal feats. I don't think about the Demon Serpent Legion, their people are specially cultivated. So, Iron Roar was my only option. As long as you can offer me the opportunity to join the Legion, everything is negotiable!"
Sun Longwan didn't expect Zhou Ming to be so straightforward, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Master Chen, don't worry, I will never refuse talents! With Master Chen's ability, it is not difficult to join the army." You have to prove yourself first, though. First, prove your abilities, and second, prove your loyalty. We can provide you with these opportunities. You might as well take a look at this contract first!"
While speaking, Sun Long took out a roll of sheepskin and slowly spread it out in front of Zhou Ming.
It's the equivalent of an employment document, but it's quite different from the various contracts on Earth. The biggest difference is that if some of these terms are violated, the price will be life.
This contract is of course unfair, but it seems very reasonable in this barbaric world where the strong are respected.
"For each beast fight, you will be rewarded with ten nine-grade beast essence stones, and you will get one percent of the profits. ”
"In a foreign war, you will be rewarded with one hundred nine-grade brute beast essence stones, and you will get thirty percent of the profits. ”
"Within a month, five Colosse matches should be guaranteed. If there is a challenger, one match is guaranteed every 10 days, and the number of matches does not count towards the five matches. ”
......
"Betray the arena and you will be sanctioned by the arena!"
"Betraying the intelligence of the arena will be sanctioned by the arena!"
......
Zhou Ming looked at them one by one and found that this contract was quite good. It can be seen that the iron-blooded roaring arena has shown a very sufficient sincerity in order to keep him.
"Eight games a month, can your supplies keep up?"
Before leaving the mark of wildness, Zhou Ming raised his eyes to look at Sun Long and said, "My Chen Fan's beast pet, whether it is cultivation or preparation, I must not allow the slightest sloppiness!"
"This Master Chen can rest assured. We are professional in this regard!"
Sun Long patted his chest and reassured, and added Zhou Ming's request with a pen, which was very bold.
Seeing this, Zhou Ming left a mark on the contract.
Sun Long nodded, put the contract away, looked at Zhou Ming in a good mood and said, "Then, there will be a competition tomorrow in Master Chen." That will be your real appearance in Hornrock. I hope Master Chen can prepare well! Whatever is needed, just mention it, we will do our best to prepare. Remember, the name we have drawn up for you is the King of the Beasts, the King of the War of the Beasts, and you and your golden ape will not disappoint us, will you?"
Zhou Ming smiled proudly and said, "King of Beasts, I can only say that your name is very appropriate!"
Sun Long thought that the young man would be humble, but he didn't expect to get such an answer, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
At this moment, he already felt the domineering of the young man.
