446 Hell's Colosseum
So, is the reason why this map is classified as a special map because the NPC combat power crushes the player?
After seeing the instructor's ferocious fighting methods, Lin Chi had already begun to wonder if the gladiators here were human beings. After all, if what this person said was true, if the other gladiators here were really several grades stronger than him, it would be impossible to defeat any opponent with his current strength!
Looking at the instructor's strength and speed, that guy's strength and agility should be above twenty points. Even if you get the War Horn, you can only barely reach the level of an instructor, and you can't compete with the monsters in the arena at all.
- So now, what exactly can be done to increase one's strength in a short period of time?
Lin Chi, who hadn't figured out what the routine of this new map was, quickly realized that it was better to continue to ask the instructor the fastest, so he asked, "So, why are they so strong?" Our gladiators there did not have such a strong force. ”
Hearing his question, the instructor's eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of horror: "Don't you even know this?" ”
Lin Chi nodded.
"Then why are you here?" The instructor sighed: "Don't forget, this is the 'Colosseum'?" ”
Lin Chi suddenly realized something: "The name of this city is the 'Colosseum'?" ”
"You're playing dumb, aren't you? Don't even know the name of the city? The instructor said angrily: "Go back to sleep, and start training tomorrow......"
"Can I start training now?" Lin Chi said seriously.
Now it is imperative that in addition to figuring out what the situation of this Colosseum is, it is also important to improve your own strength. In a time-limited deathmatch, it's obviously not a good idea to go straight to bed right after you come in.
Before the instructor could answer his question, there was a scrambled sound of footsteps in front of the main entrance of the arena.
The two of them looked at the main entrance at the same time, only to see a group of silver-armored soldiers, surrounded by a figure wrapped in black cloth, walking into the arena.
The hem of the guy's black robe dragged to the ground without a trace of blood or dust, his head was hidden under the black hood, and the position of his face revealed a smiling skull that looked like some kind of mask.
- Is this a COS Reaper?
Lin Chi was guessing the identity of the other party, but the instructor immediately pulled him and rushed to the corner of the arena, avoiding the area near the black-robed man.
"Don't come near him, do you want to die?" The instructor, who was still tall and mighty before, suddenly lowered his voice sneakily, as if he was afraid of something, and his voice began to tremble slightly.
"Who's that man?" Lin Chi asked curiously.
"Just look at it." The instructor leaned against the wall with his arms crossed: "Boy, if you are coming to the Colosseum for the first time, you will probably be frightened." ”
As he spoke, the black-robed man had already come to the center of the arena, standing next to the beheaded corpse, stretching out his withered right hand, and a pale glow lit up in his hand, reflecting the somewhat gloomy arena.
At the same time as this person made a move, the soldiers who had been surrounding him quickly retreated, standing in a circle ten meters away, with uniform steps and slightly stiff movements, they did not look like normal people at all.
"It's ......"
Before Lin Chi could say anything, he heard an incomparably old but very clear voice, whispering some kind of incantation that he didn't understand.
Then, something unexpected happened:
With a strange "creaking" sound, several mutilated corpses that fell to the ground actually stood up again!
The headless corpse with its head chopped up had just stood up, and the head of another corpse next to him, which had been smashed through the chest, left its original body and was pressed against his neck.
The severed limbs in the arena flew around and began to be spliced together in a messy manner, and the four corpses that were originally mutilated were simply put together into three complete bodies.
Then, the three blood-drenched "men", following the black-robed man who had just given them a new life, turned and left the arena, leaving only the carcass of the lion covered with a red cloth, still lying motionless on the sand.
"I'll go, what's this operation?" Lin Chi's mouth opened wide in surprise.
"These are the rules of the Colosseum."
There was awe in the instructor's voice, even if it was not the first time he had witnessed such a scene, the incredible power of the black-robed "Grim Reaper" still made him become serious, and his tone was much lower:
"The loser will not be able to sleep, and all the gladiators who die in the arena will be recast by the 'Grim Reaper' and continue to fight until the flesh and blood are worn out, and these undead will disappear completely!"
"Is that necromancy?" Lin Chi asked.
"No, that lord is the Grim Reaper itself!"
It wasn't until the black-robed man disappeared outside the arena that the instructor finally raised his voice: "The Grim Reaper will wander through the arenas, resurrect the gladiators who were killed in them, and take them away, and when the dead return again, the arena will have the most gorgeous performance......"
"In that case, wouldn't it be okay to just use these undead to fight? Why train new gladiators? Lin Chi narrowed his eyes.
With the abilities of the "Grim Reaper" so convenient, in his opinion, the arena here does not need living gladiators at all, just let the corpses that died before fight. Without being equipped with heavy weapons that severely destroy corpses, these dead who can be resurrected indefinitely should be able to fight for a long time.
However, the instructor apparently did not agree with him:
"You don't understand, the undead are just extra performances, and the audience craves blood!"
Speaking of this, the instructor began to get excited again, perhaps recalling the "eventful years" of fighting in the arena, and the whole person seemed to be a little younger: "The arena needs new blood to meet the needs of the 'Grim Reaper'!" Without this blood, the audience would not be satisfied! ”
"Oh, that's it......"
Lin Chi stared thoughtfully at the empty arena in front of him, and began to quickly sort out the information he had just obtained:
- The so-called "Grim Reaper" has no sense of oppression from the gods at all, and it may be a necromancer with resurrection ability or something. After the killing in the arena is over, it will "resurrect" the dead gladiator and turn them into walking corpses and other things to continue participating in future battles.
If that's the case, maybe I should die now? After all, when you are resurrected, you may get new skills......
In addition, there is another detail that Lin Chi is interested in now:
"If there are undead who have won consecutive battles after being resurrected, that is...... Can you see ancient heroes in the arena? ”
"yes, that's what I call an 'extra show.'" The instructor nodded: "The gladiators here come from every corner of the world, if you participate in the competition, you can see all kinds of madmen and monsters, some from modern times, some from ancient times, if you are lucky, you can even meet warriors, queens and knights from three thousand years ago!" ”
"So, this place is a 'big brawl' venue, right?"
Realizing this, Lin Chi, who was still thinking about whether to "commit suicide", immediately became interested and said with a smile: "This is interesting." ”
