Chapter 9: The Gladiator Quest Begins

The turmoil in the slave market also made Li Zhan understand that it is really not an easy thing to live freely. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before returning to his estate with McCann, he procured a batch of potatoes and peanut seeds from the market.

There were three laborers to help him carry his things, and McCann's foot improved markedly after the bandage, and although he was still limping, his face did not show great pain, but was extremely pleasant.

After returning home, Li Zhan found a headache, that is, he didn't consider the problem of providing accommodation for slaves at the beginning, so he bought a three-bedroom and two-living room house. This kind of house is a typical manor configuration, the second floor is used for living, with three rooms and two living rooms, and the first floor is used to store grain and crops, so the whole first floor is like a warehouse.

Now he wants to live in one room for himself, and Emile lives in another, and the rest of the room is for the four of McCann.

In fact, that room is not small, so that four people can make a living if they make a bunk. After all, the current season in Custer Town is in the dry season, and the weather is still relatively hot.

However, Li Zhan was still worried that they would get sick and that they would not be able to work, and the gains would outweigh the losses, so he asked Emile to take them to the furniture market to buy two bunk beds.

As for McCann, in order to test whether he is really qualified for the job of a chef, Li Zhan also asked him to cook dinner in the kitchen.

When dinner came, Li Zhan's eyes lit up, and he was already sure that McCann's specialty was cooking. Compared to his craft, Amir's culinary expertise is complete scum.

After everything was arranged, Li Zhan leaned back on the bed relaxedly and thought slowly.

What happened today was a dream to him, but the pain in the gladiatorial arena made him know that he was definitely not in a dream, but really living in this world.

Observing his attributes, he was also confused. Now he is free, but how should he continue to survive, whether to farm and develop, and when he is strong enough to revolt and overthrow the rule of slavery, or to live his life comfortably.

Now he already has a lot of wealth, and in the future, the unlimited market for peanut oil and potato baking powder can bring him even more wealth. His future life will definitely be very comfortable.

At this moment, the voice of the system came: "Complete the Slave Master achievement, start the second gladiator stage, the system has automatically signed you up for the gladiatorial fight of the slave fight, which will be played in the Custer gladiatorial arena in three days." ”

When Li Zhan heard this system prompt, he was in a state of confusion, this was the system forcing him to participate in gladiator gladiator fights, and he couldn't refuse at all. This feeling is like forcing a good person to become a prostitute.

Immediately after that, the system sent a prompt again: "Weapons and armor in the prop mall are unlocked, please exchange for suitable props to enhance your strength." ”

So a picture suddenly came up in Li Zhan's mind, this is a mall system, which has two columns for weapons and armor, and the two columns for skills and accessories are hung with two locks and cannot be viewed.

He calculated that he had a total of 450 bonus points, and there was only an ordinary longsword marked with a price tag of 400 bonus points on the weapon slot, and the lowest price tag on the armor class was 500 bonus points, and it was only an ordinary leather armor.

This is simply a pit, Li Zhan can only buy an ordinary long sword by working hard, and the attributes of this ordinary long sword are also very helpless: ordinary long sword, strength plus 3, attack power plus 2.

Such attributes are not comparable to novice equipment in many games, and the equipment of the tabula rasa can no longer be whiteboarded.

But after he looked at the other ordinary types of weapons, he felt that this longsword still had an advantage. Because the stat of another normal spear is strength plus 2 and attack damage plus 3. The price of such a weapon is 600 bonus points. As for the others, he didn't look at them much, they were all priced in the thousands, and as far as his current reward points were concerned, they couldn't be bought at all.

However, Li Zhan still bought this ordinary long sword, because he now has 40 points of strength, plus the 3 points of power of the long sword, it is 43 points. Since the Strength attribute affects the attack power, the attack power of increasing the strength will also increase.

To his surprise, just as he bought the long sword, the system sent a prompt again: "The weapon is successfully purchased, and the attack power attribute is unlocked." ”

In this way, the vague concept of the impact on attack power behind his strength attribute became a complete conversion rate: 10% converted to attack damage. In this case, when equipped with a normal longsword, he has 6.3 attack damage.

At this time, a cold long sword suddenly appeared in his hand, this is the most common long sword, it seems that those soldiers use this kind of long sword.

Li Zhan smiled bitterly, it turned out that he had already begun to move towards the equipment mode of ordinary soldiers. He could already think that when he was equipped with a set of weapons and armor, it was estimated that it would officially become a soldier's equipment.

However, he did know a pattern of unlocking this system. Just like this time he bought a weapon, then the attack power will be unlocked, then he is buying a piece of armor, and it is estimated that the defense power will also be unlocked, so after the purchase of skill and accessory items, will the others also be unlocked.

But all of this will not be confirmed until he survives the gladiatorial fight three days later.

Thinking that he had only three days to participate in the gladiatorial fight, Li Zhan also had a headache. He has the advantage of being able to know the level of the other party, and he can buy items from the system store. Of course, he was also able to level up. But none of this seemed to give him a complete sense of security.

First of all, he didn't know who the opponent he would face in three days, and if there were a few junior gladiators or something like that, then his chances of survival were slim. Just like the previous slave fight, there were twelve slave fighters in it, and with him after the upgrade, that was a total of thirteen.

If he hadn't formed an alliance with the Black Tower and used the more than twenty gold coins of the Black Tower, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to live in such a comfortable house now.

The second is that he doesn't know his current upgrade route, because the system often gives him some attribute rewards for no reason, and he completes the system's tasks without knowing it. For example, lethal attacks give him increased strength and agility attributes, and completing the first kill also adds a lot of attributes to him. As for the back, he completed three kills at once, and his strength suddenly increased by 5 points, which made him even more confused.

But if you think about it, there is a pattern to these tasks. A lot of them are skill and first-time finishers.

Things like lethal attacks belong to the skill class, and one blood and three kills are the first class.

"This is really like playing a competitive game, if you complete a five-kill at that time, will the attributes be able to increase a little more?" He also had some doubts in his heart, but also a trace of expectation.

In the last gladiatorial fight, he had overcome the discomfort of killing, probably because of his mental power attributes, which also improved his personal state, and it seemed that he would no longer be uncomfortable with the bloody scene, nor would he feel guilty for killing in the gladiatorial arena.

Because if you don't kill the other person, then the other person will try to kill themselves. There is always hope in life.

Meanwhile, at Mario's Manor in the south of town, Mario is sitting at the dinner table and talking cheerfully with the Lord Mayor of the Town, and they are talking about the gladiatorial fight of the slave fighters three days later.

"Mayor Vic, you see the slave fighter fight in three days, and I want a person named Li Zhan to participate." Mario raised his glass and toasted to Vic, smiling.

Vic was now flushed with a big belly, and replied with a laugh: "Mario, why, that kid won you 2,000 gold coins, and you are still not satisfied, and you still want to make another profit from him?" ”

Of course, he knew that the man Mario was talking about was Li Zhan, one of the ten slave fighters who were able to get out of the gladiatorial arena alive today.

"However, the empire has a rule that a freeman may choose not to participate in future gladiatorial fights, as long as he pays one-tenth of the annual tax on his property for the empire..."

At this point, Vic put down his glass and hung his leg on the knee of the other leg, although he said that this was a bit of a pain, but it was clear from his smiling face that it was definitely not a difficult task. It's not just a matter of filling in a person's name on the entry form, it's very simple.

But the empire does have this regulation, but there is another situation where this provision can be used, that is, Li Zhan took the initiative to sign up for gladiatorial battles, but who would be so stupid, life and death duels, it is not a joke, and if you are not careful, you will die.

However, seeing the corners of Mario's mouth raised slightly, it has already indicated that he will definitely let Li Zhan participate in the gladiatorial competition of slave fighters, because he is an underdog who can make money for him, but whenever a new slave fighter is produced and participates in a higher level of gladiatorial fighting, his odds are very high.

At least he can reach 8, and the big guy who is in the picture of science fans, his odds are 3.

In contrast, Li Zhan's odds are higher than others, which means that many people are not optimistic about him. But Mario just thinks that this kid gives him a very strange feeling, or pride or something. When Mario asked Li Zhan to get the reward, Li Zhan actually lined up another person to receive it.

This made him very faceless, but he couldn't get along with money without face, so he earned 1,500 gold coins from this game, which is definitely an objective income.

So he wanted to continue to buy Li Zhan because he felt that Li Zhan had won!

Vic laughed, then patted Mario on the shoulder and said, "If you add a name, take a bottle of wine from your Mario Manor and give it to my father to taste." ”

"The year is not too far away, just get seven or eight years." Vic said it lightly, but in Mario's eyes, this sentence was simply naked blackmail. Others may not know the quality of the wines produced in their Mario estate, but he does.

The wines produced by Mario Estate, which have been stored for seven or eight years, are worth a full 100 gold coins in the market!

Vic's appetite is not small! Mario thought silently.
