Blood spilled freely on the dueling arena, and a lean and capable man collapsed in a pool of blood.

The victor raised his axe and greeted the applause and roars of the audience.

Lu Yu and Reilly had already arrived in the stands, and when they first arrived here, the first game was already over.

The first game lasted only four minutes!

At this time, the audience applauded, and Lu Yu looked around, most of the gorgeously dressed nobles applauded gently.

Those who sit in the front row are dressed like civilians and shout loudly to show catharsis.

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, and the man who fell in a pool of blood at this moment had been dragged down.

Only the man in light armor and his giant axe were left on the field.

At this time, a man in a tuxedo walked up to the dueling arena, holding a model resembling a microphone in his hand.

I saw him point into the microphone and say: "The winner of this battle - Morton Maxey!" ”

"Everyone is already familiar with him, yes, he is the captain from the Trifali Legion - Morton Maxey!"

The audience burst into applause.

Lu Yu heard someone next to him whispering:

"Morton is so strong, hee-hee."

"yes, I don't know how that piece is."

"Why don't you make an appointment in the evening?"

"Give it a try when you get the chance."

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows, and because the content of the exchange between the two was a little strong, Lu Yu looked over.

They are two aristocratic ladies who are 17 years old and gorgeously dressed.

While they discussed, they also hid their faces and smiled, and those who didn't know thought that the two were very reserved.

It turns out that something like this is being discussed.

Lu Yu was a little shocked, they only won a game, and you started to plan your posture for the night?

This aristocratic circle is a bit open.

At this time, Reilly patted Lu Yu and said, "Don't be shocked, this is all a common thing." ”

Lu Yu: "Oh? How so? ”

Reilly: "These aristocratic girls come to the gladiatorial arena to find excitement, but to find candidates." ”

"Men who tend to go to gladiatorial arenas are strong, well, you know."

Lu Yu nodded slightly, understood.

"Especially a promising young man like Morton, who is brave and invincible on the battlefield, and is so strong when he is sent to the dueling arena by the legion, such a person is the most favored by the noble ladies."

"If nothing else, he's destined to have a sleepless night tonight."

After Reilly finished speaking, he showed envious eyes.

"Wait? Sent to the dueling arena by the Legion? Lu Yu grasped the point in his words.

Reilly: "Yes, they were sent to the dueling arena by the Legion, and many Legions do that. ”

"There are hundreds of legions in Noxus, some led by nobles, some by civilian generals."

"The legions led by the common generals are not very well funded, and some will send a representative figure to participate in the dueling arena to attract the attention of the nobles."

"If you perform well, maybe you will attract the nobles to invest in the legion, and if the legion makes a meritorious service, the nobles who invest will also have a share of the credit."

Lu Yu nodded, it turned out that Noxus still had this kind of rule.

"Then Morton isn't from the Trivary Council Legion? That's the ace army, and you still want to attract investment? Lu Yu asked.

Reilly: "The direct subordinate of the Trifali Legion is Darius, who was also born as a commoner, has enough money, and wants fame. ”

Lu Yu: "So that's the case, Darius needs to expand his influence?" ”

Reilly: "Yes, while Darius represents the supreme force of Noxus, he was born a commoner and needs to expand his influence at all levels. ”

Lu Yu nodded and listened to Reilly's explanation.

It seems that this gladiatorial arena is not so simple.

It's a place where money, fame, force and politics come together!

"It's kind of interesting." Lu Yu said with a smile.

At this point, the host continued: "Today Morton is going to be an endless challenge until he falls! ”

"Oh!"

There was an exclamation from inside the venue.

"Endless challenges?" Lu Yu wondered.

Reilly: "The endless challenge is to keep fighting people until he loses the position. ”

"This mode can only be opened by those who are at a high level in the dueling arena, so that all the fighters can challenge him."

"To put it simply, it's a wheel battle with different opponents, and if you defeat one opponent, another will come up immediately."

"Don't stop until Morton falls."

Lu Yu: "It's cruel, is the prize money huge?" ”

Reilly: "Double the winnings, double the second and triple the third." ”

"That's a lot of money!"

Reilly: "It's easy to lose your life, too." ”

After the disburseer finished speaking, the whole person in the venue became agitated.

Lu Yu even saw that the official set up a gambling game.

It was placed in a row, and there were already many civilians betting at the moment.

There are also staff members who came to the nobles' side and invited them to place bets.

Lu Yu looked around, and the entire ring of the stands was filled with a restless atmosphere, and everyone was discussing the gambling game enthusiastically.

At this time, a staff member came to Lu Yu and Reilly.

"Do you need to place a bet, sir?"

I saw that the staff was very polite and stood on Lu Yu's side with a plate.

Lu Yu was curious and took the plate.

I found out that what was written on it turned out to be odds!

There are no odds on who against whom, but rather odds on Moreton Maxey to make it to the first few rounds.

First round: 20 to 1

Second round: 18 to 1

Third round: 16 to 1

Fourth round: 3.5 to 1

Fifth round: 0.5 to 1

Sixth round: 2 to 1

.......

.......

Round 10: 10 to 1

Round 11: 25 to one

After reading it, Lu Yang asked, "Why aren't there odds after eleven rounds?" ”

The opponent replied: "If Mr. Moreton Maxey has played eleven rounds, the odds will be recalculated." ”

Lu Yu nodded.

This odds list is a bit outrageous.

In the first round, there were such high odds of 1 to 20!

Aren't you afraid that players will bet on themselves and then lose the game?

Lu Yu always felt that the odds were very wrong.

Reilly said, "We don't bet, thank you." ”

"Yes, sir."

The staff member with the plate walked away and went to the next person to make a sale.

"Why not bet?" Lu Yu asked.

Reilly: "There is a problem with the odds today, and it is normal for a place like the dueling arena to have high-level manipulating the odds to make money. ”

"And there are no floating odds, there is a problem."

"Oh? Since you said there was a problem, then I'll bet on it. Lu Yu said with a smile.

Reilly slowly let out a question mark.

“？”

Lu Yu called the person who placed the bet over again.

said, "I'll give you a hundred gold coins." ”

"Yes sir, please leave your name and the gold coins."

Lu Yu tugged at Reilly.

Reilly: "What? ”

"Money, I earned three or seven points for the two of us."

"You're seven and I'm three?" Reilly said with a roll of his eyes.

Lu Yu: "...... I'm three...."

Reilly: "Oh, I thought you wanted to trick me again, so what if you lost?" ”

Lu Yu: "Call you 1700 when the time comes." ”

Reilly thought for a moment, then pulled out a note with Noxus Bank printed on it.

"Ah, a hundred gold coins."

Lu Yu took it and handed it to the bettor.

"Little five, one hundred gold coins will be in the tenth round."

"Okay, Mr. Little Five." After saying that, the punter left.

And Reilly's eyes widened at the moment, looking at Lu Yu with a questioning expression

"Are you crazy?! How to play the tenth round! ”

Lu Yu: "Since you say that he is so powerful, I think he can survive to the tenth round." ”

Reilly said with a pompous expression: "Wow! You bet after hearing that he was great? It's over, I lost a hundred gold coins, and I was going to be scolded by my wife when I went home. ”

After another five minutes, the supporters announced that the bets were complete and the game was about to begin.

Morton Maxi, in the center of the ring dueling arena, raised the giant axe, played a trick, and then struck a pose, quite handsome.

"Click."

An iron door opened in the arena, and a thin man brandishing his sword with his bare upper body appeared.

"Marion Balk, from the extinct Manati Empire, one-star war criminal!"

The host's voice rang out, announcing the opening of the curtain
