Chapter 38: The Colosseum

Under Feng Xinglie's explanation, although she didn't see the whole picture of the dungeon, Su Xiaoting also made up a rough idea, simply put, the dungeon is like a huge building buried deep underground, from the top floor to the bottom floor has its own functions.

If the building has 10 floors, then usually the 1-2 floors are responsible for water purification, sewerage, and energy supply. The 3rd to 5th floors are the gathering places of various industries, responsible for smelting, production, scientific research, etc. Floors 6-8 are residential and commercial leisure areas, 9th floors are public institutions and school hospitals, and 10th floors are government offices.

Next to the building, there is also a hydroponic agriculture base for the production of organic food, and above the base is a warehouse that stores the resources that the building's inhabitants rely on for their livelihoods, as well as the heritage of human civilization.

Of course, in order to obtain the means of production nearby, the original dungeons were built on the scale of provincial or super cities. At the same time, factors such as geological conditions must be taken into account, so the size and number of floors of each dungeon vary considerably.

Imagining the human beings in the dark age, they could only live in this cramped and dim metal building, outside the building was not full of bright sunshine and fresh air, but an inch-barred, cold and damp underground, Su Xiaoting couldn't help but feel a little empathetic compassion.

Feng Xinglie was keenly aware of her emotional changes, and sighed lightly: "Actually, they are lucky. Xiaoting, do you know what this place used to do? ”

Su Xiaoting thought for a while and said, "It should be the same as now, it is a place for leisure and shopping!" ”

"Well, during the Dark Age, this can be regarded as the largest entertainment center in the Lanzhou dungeon! At that time, it was probably much more lively than it is now. ”

"What? Is this the dungeon of Lanzhou? Hearing the familiar name, Su Xiaoting couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. She knew that the original Gansu and Qinghai provinces had merged into what is now Ning Province.

"Yes~ If it weren't for the first-class gladiatorial performance in China here, I'm afraid we wouldn't have the chance to see it today."

"En~ Indeed!" Su Xiaoting thought that if it weren't for that, even if she came, she might only be able to see the dilapidated ruins.

It is precisely because of the drive of the underground black fist that the one-stop service around the gladiatorial arena has been born, and the environment here has also been renovated.

"It's almost time for the game to start, so let's go in!"

The two of them walked towards the gladiatorial arena, there were still many snacks and props selling on the side of the road, and Feng Xinglie gently hugged Su Xiaoting to prevent her from being hit by pedestrians.

After swiping the wristband, the two entered the passage of the gladiatorial arena, and saw many people gathered in front of a machine placed next to the passage, their eyes frantically operating.

Seeing Su Xiaoting's puzzled gaze, Feng Xinglie explained: "They are betting on tonight's game, are they interested in betting?" ”

"Ah! That's it, I'm not good at this, so forget it! Su Xiaoting shrugged and said.

"Well, that's good~ Let's go!" Feng Xinglie just wanted to pull Su Xiaoting's hand, but she pretended not to see it, and walked forward two steps quickly.

When I came today, I didn't pay much attention to the environment because I was timid. But if she keeps being so ambiguous, she will feel a little uncomfortable.

Feng Xinglie looked at Su Xiaoting's back and shook his head helplessly, how could he get used to it so quickly?

The two entered the bottom stand from the VIP passage, and in the middle was a fighting platform more than one meter high, and there was a guardrail more than one meter high on the stage. There is also a square transparent cover on the outside that completely covers the ring.

About 2 meters away from the ring, 5-7 rows of luxury seats are set up in four directions, and the ring is gradually raised with the ring as the center, similar to the style of a theater. Beyond the bottom stand, there is an oval spectator on the periphery, with a rough estimate of more than 1,000 seats. At this time, about seventy percent of the audience was full.

Feng Xinglie led Su Xiaoting into the third row of luxury seats, saying that it was a seat or a two-seater sofa would be more appropriate, and there was a square tray at each armrest on each side, on which drinks and snacks were placed.

Remembering that she had said last time that she was going to slaughter the other party, but she didn't expect the master to take the initiative to bleed today, so Su Xiaoting sat down with peace of mind. After looking around, I noticed that most of the people in the bottom stand were similar to them, wearing stand-up collared capes and hoods, as if they did not want to be recognized.

However, after all, rich people are in the minority, and it is normal to be afraid of being seen by acquaintances. She didn't think much about it, and instead chatted with Feng Xinglie about tonight's game with great interest.

According to Feng Xinglie, it is to take her to observe the real actual combat and learn from it.

Due to the huge amount of chips betted here, the contestants were tempted to make heavy profits, and at the same time, the tournament did not make any restrictions on the form except for the stipulation that no black hands could be played and any props could be used, which led to all the contestants making desperate bets and fighting to the death in each game.

A total of 3 gladiatorial fights will be arranged tonight, each limited to 1 hour, and you can apply for a break in the middle.

At 7:30, the gladiatorial fight began on time!

A slender long-haired beauty, wearing a neon red leather bra and miniskirt, walked onto the stage, attracting whistles and cheers from the audience.

The beautiful host threw a few winks to the audience, and after offering a few kisses to the audience, she was satisfied and announced the list of matchups and on-site odds for the first game in the excitement. Above the crystal cover of the ring, several beams of light and shadow showed a three-dimensional picture of the players and commentary.

In the middle of the ring, a circular area with a diameter of 2 meters slowly descended, and when it rose again, the two players had already stood up, and the circular area rose until it was perfectly fitted with the ring.

Su Xiaoting looked at these two players with huge body differences curiously, one of them was as tall and strong as Akagi Gangxian in "Slam Dunk", with a 2-meter-tall body and brown and black muscles, like a humanoid beast, and his face was blue and gray, and his eyes were empty as if he couldn't find a trace of human emotion.

On the other side was a one-eyed woman of medium stature, wearing an eyepatch, with short walnut hair, wearing a bright crimson sailor suit and tight boots, and at this time she was expressionless, leaning lazily against the railing and smoking. It can be seen from her facial features that she should be less than thirty, and she has a delicate appearance, what a pity!

The hostess's soft voice rose again: "Welcome to the showdown between the Iron Tower and the Scarlet Rose-Alice!" The odds are 1:3, note that both of them are level 3 capable people~"

As soon as the words fell, I saw that all the lights in the arena were extinguished, and only bright beams of light gathered in the ring, and the eyes of the audience were attracted to the small ring.

Su Xiaoting suddenly asked in a nervous whisper: "Ah Lie, this Alice is not powerful, will she have an accident?" ”

"Hehe, don't worry, although I haven't watched her fight, her winning rate is higher than that of her opponent. And the rating of the capable is not divided into men and women, but because of the disparity in size, everyone is not optimistic about her. ”

"That's okay~ Can she use weapons?"

"Unless the two of them reach an agreement, it seems that both of them should be bare-handed." Feng Xinglie said in a low voice.

"Xiaoting, if you want to rely on your own strength to protect yourself, you have to learn how to face the enemy. Don't be soft on the other person's appearance. ”

"Uh...... Good. Su Xiaoting was shocked when she heard this, and couldn't help but reflect on herself, feeling that she really needed to adjust her mentality.

With a crisp bell, the game officially begins!

The tower was the first to attack, slamming his hammer-like fist at Alice, who seemed to be relaxed but quickly took a half-step back, avoiding the blow. The tower continued to follow slowly, tirelessly waving his fists, but Alice was dodged one by one by his nimble body.

It wasn't until she got close to the fence that Alice slipped under the tower's armpit, then spun around and kicked her opponent's waist with her knee.

Unexpectedly, the tower did not have a defensive movement at all, but continued to attack her with an old-fashioned posture. The next moment, Alice, who kicked the opponent's body, felt as if she had kicked an iron pillar, and the opponent not only did not move, but she was bounced by the backlash and turned half a circle.

Then, the two of them resumed their previous rhythm, one as if it was a never-ending machine, and the other with a very small amount of dodging. It's as if an elephant is walking around a cat.

One of the best attacks was when Alice jumped onto the guardrail and kicked the tower in the face. As a result, the tower only twisted its neck a few times, and then continued to attack as if nothing happened.

Such a bland battle obviously could not please the public, and there were bursts of boos from the audience from time to time.

Feng Xinglie commented on the side: "This Alice is very smart, through the temptation just now, she probably already knows that she can't fight hard, the opponent's defense is too strong, and she can only try to consume his physical strength." ”

Su Xiaoting nodded, it was her, she might have competed with the other party just now, she wasted her physical strength in vain, and if she was restrained, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, what if the other party's physical strength is better than Alice's?
