Chapter 372: Gluttony Contest
Qiu Xuan and Zhu Kunhai were the first two people to come to the scene, and after half an hour after them, the dense aborigines swarmed into the scene from the other direction of the arch.
And when the crowd poured in to a point where the water was impassable, the fenced-off area in the depths finally opened.
"Players are invited to enter, and all participants are invited to enter the venue with their admission tickets......"
A low, strange voice was heard over the radio, and then in the direction to the left of the curtain, several men in knightly armor stood guard at the entrance, and began to check the tickets of the incoming contestants one by one.
"Let's go too." When Zhu Kunhai saw this scene, he still reminded him out of conscience, and then he took the lead in squeezing out of the crowd, but there were too many people gathered at the moment. Zhu Kunhai's face was not very good-looking, and he said, "Please let me go to the competition." Someone next to him immediately sneered and said, "Uncle, what kind of competition are you coming to participate in, give up as soon as possible." ”
Qiu Xuan looked at the middle-aged man's face that sank for a moment and was a little funny, he probably rarely ate this kind of deflatedness, and when he heard this, he glared at the person who spoke, and then moved forward to squeeze forward.
The density of the crowd is so great that anyone who has experience squeezing the morning rush hour subway will probably understand this feeling. Sometimes the more you try to get past the crowd and go in one direction, the more the crowd will break up and take you in the other direction, and it is very easy to get a stampede.
Almost instantly, she watched Zhu Kunhai's upper body fall and disappear into the crowd, frowned, and just wanted to squeeze in that direction, several completely unfamiliar faces in front of her crowded over from all directions, rushing her in the opposite direction.
They didn't do it on purpose, just because there were so many people there.
It's fine if they are just broken up and trampled by the crowd, after all, their current physical fitness will not kill them in the stampede, and the problem is that if this continues, they will not be able to reach the ticket counter at all. In this case, the ticket will be invalid.
There was a burst of gunfire from the front of the crowd.
Then there were the screams of the aborigines mixed with the noise of human voices, and a few more gunshots rang out, and Zhu Kunhai stood up from the crowd with a bloody face.
"Get out of the way of Lao Tzu, or you'll die."
The crowd erupted in an uproar, cursing and panicking, and then inevitably retreating away from the man. This retreat made the situation even worse, and there were several well-dressed aborigines in the back row, whose center of gravity was unstable, and they fell to the ground and were trampled on by countless feet on their bodies.
At this moment, people clearly felt the ground trembling slightly under their feet.
When the crowd close to the edge saw the comer, they immediately withdrew from the arch field without saying a word. The crowd finally had a respite, and then it became clear that the people who were walking towards this entrance had all stepped back and completely cleared a path in the field.
Chainsaw Man.
Almost at the first glance of the figure, Qiu Xuan came to this conclusion in her heart.
The person who came was almost twice the size of the normal humans around them, which was actually nothing, after all, they had just seen the nearly three-meter-tall giant warrior with their own eyes just a few days ago. And the real scary thing about the player in front of him is that his lower face.
The lower half of the man's face was encased in a large, chain-bound mask, with yellowish-brown blood stains on the edges of the vertical breathing openings of the mask, making him look like a murderer who had escaped from the extreme danger level of a mental hospital.
Apparently due to the lack of oxygen caused by the large crowd around him, the man opened his mouth and breathed heavily from the hollowed-out barrier of his mask. In the open cracked mouth, rows of saw-blade-like teeth were chilling, and the tip of the bright red tongue gently licked the serrated teeth, and I don't know whether it was the blood oozing from the tip of the tooth that cut through the tongue or the blood left between the teeth themselves.
The crowd made way for him as Moses divided the sea, and the man walked towards the wicket with heavy steps, and several of the knights in charge of security seemed to be deeply frightened when they saw the comer. But then they carefully checked each other's admission tickets with professional ethics, and then raised their swords and let them go with a sigh of relief.
"Next."
The knight at the head wiped a handful of cold sweat that oozed from his forehead, and paused unconsciously when he saw someone coming.
Compared to the previous walking nightmare of the last one, the person in front of him was so normal that it made people cry for gratitude.
"Well, you're the first time you're participating, right?" The knight couldn't help but lower his voice, "Now we have to check your admission ticket, you don't have to worry, this is just to prevent someone from using illegal means to check the work, and it won't burden you." ”
Qiu Xuan took out the admission ticket from his pocket and handed it to him, and the knight in front of him raised his hand to take it, took off his gloves and carefully touched a few corners twice.
"Okay, it's okay, you can go in."
That's it? Qiu Xuan was suspicious and took the ticket that had been handed back untouched, it hadn't even been stamped or marked to indicate that it had been used. She suspected that they hadn't checked anything out at all, until a few minutes after she walked into the infield, when a tall, thin woman in the crowd was pulled out alone.
"Let go of me, let go! Why did you arrest me, you have no evidence at all! ”
"Her admission ticket is fake." The tone of the leading knight was no longer gentle and gentle, and with a wave of his raised hand, several knights in armor carried the woman and threw her out of the archway.
"Wait, wait, I was wrong, I admit I didn't do it right! Forgive me this time, don't leave me here! Please, please, ahh!!h ”
Almost at the moment when the knight let go, a group of people appeared out of nowhere from the dead silence outside the confines of the field! Their eyes were shining staring at where the woman had landed, and countless hands reached out, and the look in their eyes did not look like they were looking at a "person" of the same kind at all.
The familiar creaking and chewing sounds, mixed with the sticky sound of flesh flowing on the lips and teeth, soon no movement was heard.
Qiu Xuan looked out through a fence in silence, and the direction they threw the woman out was the same path she had walked before. When that road came, it was deserted and empty, but I didn't expect it to stay here and wait for them.
She withdrew her gaze, and was immediately led to her place by an aboriginal dressed as a staff member.
In front of them was a large long table, covered with a lavish-looking white tablecloth with dark streaks, in the same style as the delicate and ornate arch. Qiu Xuan sat on the left side, and at such a cursory glance, the long table was more than ten meters long, and there were almost twenty people sitting on it besides her.
I don't know what the position is arranged, Zhu Kunhai is sitting on her right hand.
He saw Qiu Xuan, but instead of taking the initiative to talk, he turned his head to say something to a young man to his right, who could clearly tell that he was also an executioner.
The previously terrifying-looking chainsaw man sat in the center of the long table.
"In case there are new players who don't know the rules, I'll just repeat it."
Suddenly, a figure in a complicated dress appeared in front of the long table, and the woman confirmed once again that all the participants were present, nodded and opened her mouth to say the rules. "Quite simply, as the name suggests, the Gluttony Contest insists on eating until the end, and the player with the most empty plates wins the final victory, with no time limit. However, if a plate of food is not eaten for too long beyond the specified time, it is considered to automatically admit defeat. Anyone who has won a certain number of times in each town-level game can be upgraded to a city game. It is forbidden to take away the food for the game, and if you are found to be carrying food out of the venue, you will be terminated. ”
Gluttony contest.
Qiu Xuan's face was a little weird, this trial is indeed called "famine", but holding this so-called gluttony competition, isn't it completely the other way around?
Besides, than if you eat...... Wait a minute.
"Dingding, dingding, game on!"
As soon as she finished speaking, as the curtain in front of her lifted to reveal the excited and shouting expressions of the audience, Qiu Xuan almost instantly heard a very uncomfortable and almost numbing sound of eating from a distance of several positions. She looked back and saw that the "Chainsaw Man" was sitting in the very center, taking off the restraint mask he was wearing, grinning and beginning to pour meat into his mouth.
That action is really "down".
A large plate of steaks resembling steaks is served, and the chef handles it with great care, and the heat is just right to bring out the tender juice of the meat itself. Coupled with a thick sauce with a special dense sauce, it is poured to wrap the meat itself, and the soft and mellow aroma neutralizes the greasy taste of the barbecue itself, and it can be said that it is much better than most cases.
It is such a delicately processed food, and a thick hand holds the plate and ignores the cutlery itself, and pours it straight into the mouth. The hemoglobin was crushed by the sawblade-like serrations and oozing red red teeth, and he didn't even chew much at all, tiny meat foam splashed out of his big mouth, and the upper and lower chain teeth opened and closed indiscriminately twice before he heard a loud swallow, and the whole steak was swallowed raw directly.
Qiu Xuan: I'm grass, he's a snake.
And with such a little effort, not only the chainsaw that performed too amazingly in the audience, but most of the other players all looked like they were ignoring the food itself, and stuffed meat into their mouths after swallowing dates.
The oozing vegetable juice soaked the pure white and gorgeous tablecloth underneath, and the fat and scraps between the fingers flowed diagonally and were stained by the movement to the corners of the mouth and the side of the face, and the meat foam flew sideways, and even some of them splashed underneath the audience. None of them felt anything was wrong, and even the onlookers below looked more excited than they were, all of them blushing and shouting something.
It seems that among the people present, only she and Zhu Kunhai are left as "normal people" at this moment.
"You've just entered the proving ground."
Suddenly, a woman on Qiu Xuan's left hand slowed down her eating movement slightly, as if she had been relieved by the frenzied eating of food a while ago, which made her look less like she had gobled up her mind like before.
The woman finally picked up the cutlery with her right hand and ate while taking the time to talk to her. "Don't worry, if you stay here for ten days and half a month, you will become like this. Do you know how long it takes for a person to die without food and water? Three to five days is for an average person, and for us, almost a week. ”
"So what's the point of this gluttony contest?" Qiu Xuan chewed the meat steak in his mouth, and really felt that the chef realm here was not comparable to the desperate situation or the previous few trial grounds. If she were to be one of those people from the independent mercenary organization, what kind of giant warriors would she tie up, and directly tie up two cooks in the starvation world to go back. "Tickets are given to everyone who has just entered the Trial, and then it's harder to get them again, right?"
"It's not hard." The woman finally looked up from the plate and glanced at her while she was looking up to drink. "It's almost impossible to get it on your own."
"What do you mean?"
The woman stopped talking, she waved her hand at Qiu Xuan, signaling that there was something to wait until she finished eating. In fact, she is now willing to say these words to Qiu Xuan, and everyone sitting at this long table is devouring food without saying a word from beginning to end.
In view of the almost predictable prospects in the days to come, Qiu Xuan still didn't ask any more and lowered his head, and ate this meal first.
After eating a few plates in quick succession, she couldn't eat anymore.
Her appetite has always been about the normal level, not to mention that the current situation is really a big stomach king, can it be compared to the chainsaw in the middle who pours meat as water?
Qiu Xuan glanced at those few times, the snake man (?) The plate in front of him had accumulated to a terrifying point. She had heard of some gifted people whose stomachs could expand to more than sixty times the size before, but the chainsaw man in front of her, if he really ate this way, the food he ate was about to close to his own volume, and he didn't know what was going on with his stomach now.
"You'd better eat more, or it's too wasteful."
The woman next to her also looked very full now, but she was still stuffing something into her mouth with a white face. "You don't know about participating in the Gluttony Contest, huh...... How precious is the opportunity...... Otherwise, you'll regret it later. ”
Qiu Xuan had tried what it would be like if she transported food into the space at the very beginning, and as soon as she was sent into the space, not even the accompanying space or the two ability spaces, a line of red letters was almost immediately imprinted in her mind, "Warning!" Warn! ".
And these methods must have been ruled out by the first executioners themselves, so they had to give up.
