Chapter 103: The Thing in the Pool (2)

Although there is no strict official division of the jungle field, in the minds of the contestants and spectators, this bloody and terrifying jungle is divided into five areas of different sizes.

The first area is the southern part of the jungle that they consider relatively safe. Because this is the entrance of the arena, and from the entrance to the stone altar, by a 15-meter-wide broad avenue through, there is no tree on both sides, only two rows of slender light poles, belongs to the most open area of the whole jungle, so the contestants often do not do it here, one of the people who do it, such as sweeping with a gun, the rest of the contestants basically can't hide; Second, everyone stared at each other, and if anyone showed signs of moving, they were afraid that they would be knocked down by others before they took out their weapons.

However, as the tournament progresses, the peace in the southern jungle will eventually disappear as the contestants become more and more fierce to survive**.

The second area is the middle of the jungle that they least want to set foot in. Although this place is quite peaceful, in the circular clearing, the semi-arc-shaped stone altar is located in the center, and the Twelve Lives Gate stands in their respective positions without saying a word or moving like a stone sculpture, and everything here seems to be still, no matter when it comes, it has not changed at all. But even so, except for those who were stupid, almost no one dared to enter the clearing, because they all knew one thing very well: even if the tiger was asleep, never go near it.

You must know that once the tiger wakes up, whether it is the contestants or the cannon fodder that has been thrown down, it will become the prey in their eyes.

The fourth area is the eastern part of the jungle where the fighting is the most intense in the entire jungle. The trees here are relatively close, making it suitable for both the contestants to hide and the exchange of fire. What's more, this is the only area in the jungle where you can pick up weapons and equipment, and you can pick up a weapon or piece of equipment almost every four or five steps. Because everyone's luck is different, so the weapons they pick up are naturally different, some can see the weapons of great destruction, and some can only pick up a crappy short knife, but the most unfortunate is the one who picked up a curved bow, just ask, a curved bow, a wooden arrow, how much trouble can be stirred up in this jungle arena?

Although these weapons and equipment are of the lowest level, in any case, even if you pick up a curved bow, it is much better than your bare hands.

The fifth area, the northern part of the jungle, may be the area that people in this jungle arena want to go to the most, but they can't go. The coveted "King's Seat" sits at the northern end, a bronze throne guarded by a bronze treasure who has not been defeated since the start of the tournament. Bronze Treasure has a particularly strange habit, that is, he likes to collect the pants of his defeated soldiers, so, just above the throne, you can see a series of polished pants, a total of exactly 12 pairs, and their names are specially hung on them, from left to right: Midnight Bat, Red-Eyed Lion Hunt, Mechanical Goshawk......

In people's imagination: beside the blazing bonfire, Bronze Treasure sits majestically on the throne, he grinds his teeth from time to time, his hands folded in front of his eyes, his face is extremely dark, and he looks ahead with fierce eyes, waiting for the arrival of the next challenger......

However, in the minds of the Twelve Lives, the bronze treasure is the most hateful and despicable existence, they are planning to fight it again all the time, this time they will never lose, they want to take back their pants, shame!

But after waiting day after day, they never waited for such an opportunity, until ......" Ah Hong was covered with cold sweat, took a step cautiously, settled on his heels, and breathed a deep sigh of relief when he saw that he had not stepped on the trap.

Until my golden prey came, didn't I? Qiu Qiong sneered.

"Yes, yes," Ah Bai carried Qiu Qiong on his back, nodded slightly, followed Ah Hong's foothold, and slowly took a step, until he stood firm, and then continued, "This is also why the red-eyed lion hunter, the mechanical goshawk, and the iron-footed bear took the initiative to find it, according to past experience, if someone didn't want to go to the north, they basically didn't even bother to move." ”

Qiu Qiong frowned, looked back, and saw a huge figure standing in the distance, with purple fire on his legs, no need to guess, it was the iron-footed bear.

"He won't catch up, he must be afraid of the traps here."

"Boss, you're right." Ah Hong happily agreed, but his mind was not actually on Qiu Qiong's words, and he didn't even hear what she said. At this time, he was engrossed in scanning the ground, not daring to miss a trace, because if he took a wrong step, the three of them would not be able to get out of the western part of the jungle.

"Don't say flattering words, I don't like to hear them. If you really want to be my little brother, put away your greedy town for me, and if you have anything to say, just be sincere! ”

Ah Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Boss, we are absolutely sincere!" It's just that in the form of expression, it's too polite! ”

Qiu Qiong sighed, and said helplessly: "Too much, you still know that you are too polite!" Forget it, look at the people in your greedy town like this, if you can't change it, you won't change it! Getting back to business, Ah Hong, why don't you skip the third area? ”

"Boss, I was about to speak!"

Ah Hong paused suddenly, looked left and right for a while, and finally determined a safe foothold, only to see him slowly lift his right leg and slowly stretch out his foot.

At the moment when the toes touched the ground, two drops of cold sweat dripped down the nose and chin respectively. Elsewhere, it's normal to drop two drops of cold sweat, but here, the weight and impact of a drop of sweat can cause irreversible consequences.

What's more, it was two drops of cold sweat falling together!

"Be careful! Sweat! Ah Bai exclaimed.

Ah Hong was shocked, and then he realized his carelessness, and when he was about to make a move, he could only instinctively grab his clothes, thinking about catching the two drops of sweat.

It's a pity that he was still one step too late!

Those two drops of sweat happened to pass through his fingers and rushed to the ground faster and faster!

For a while, Ah Hong's heart was like ashes, he never thought that he and Ah Bai had spent so much effort to come to this bronze medal competition, and they were about to reach the pool, and all their efforts would be ruined by just two drops of sweat!

He was not reconciled, but what could he do?

At this moment, the gray toe of the shoe swept up against the grass, and one long leg tried his best to kick forward as fast as he could!

There must not be a trace of deviation! There can't be much movement either!

With a "bang", the legs were fixed, and the shoes were also fixed, only a slight "da-da" sound was heard, and the two drops of cold sweat fell on the toe of the shoe at the same time, seeping into the gray mesh!

"Whew...... Good ......"

Ah Bai couldn't help choking, wiped the cold sweat on his face with one hand, and slowly withdrew his legs.

"Ah Hong, be careful......"

"Know...... Got it......"

Ah Hong immediately grabbed his clothes and wiped away the beads of sweat on his face, and took three long breaths, steady

After holding his mind, he slowly moved his hind feet. And when everything is safe, he can finally continue to preach: "Boss, the western part of the jungle where we are now is the third area ......"

The third area is the western part of the jungle, which they consider to be the most dangerous and the most sought-after. It is said to be dangerous because it is full of traps, some people have counted that there are nearly 200 traps buried here, and there are about 30 deep pits full of nails alone, but among these traps, people know only a few dozen. It can be said that once a person steps into it, every step down is to wander inside and outside the ghost gate, if there is a little carelessness or a little bit of bad luck, then it will be locked in the door forever, waiting for the next reincarnation......

And it is such an extremely dangerous place, but it is also the area where the contestants are most concentrated and enthusiastic. This is because deep in the western part of the jungle, there is a clean pool, which is neither large nor small, and is the only drinking water "reservoir" in the copper ring today. The water in the waterhole is free, which is undoubtedly the most irresistible temptation of life for the contestants who have been drained of their savings, are already thirsty and have no way out. Even if there are deadly traps all over the ground, in their eyes, it is just a gamble for their lives.

They never wanted to get the "king's seat", from the moment they entered the arena, their goal was only that pool of water, and only this gamble. If you win the bet, be a well-watered dead ghost; If you lose the bet, it's a big deal to die early.

Wouldn't it be a blessing to get out of this world full of pain early than to endure the torment of a dry mouth day and night?

However, not all contestants are desperate, and a considerable number of contestants are still very eager to get the "king's seat", but in order to get it, they must not only have enough strength themselves, but also need to be fully prepared. However, there is a limit to the materials that each participant can bring into the stadium, unless it is a trust, and they can often only bring some protective lightweight materials into the venue, which is simply not enough to support them to reach the northern part of the jungle.

In this case, it is especially important to place supplies in the pool.

"It is said that there are all kinds of supplies in the waterhole, not only medical items that are not allowed to be brought into the stadium, some high-level protective equipment, and some electronic devices that can be modified. Our brothers just thought ......"

Qiu Qiong was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "What did you just say?" Medical items?! ”

"Right...... That's right......" Ah Hong was frightened, looked at Qiu Qiong with a confused face, and asked, "Boss, what's wrong?" Is it because of the wound on your hand? ”

Qiu Qiong glanced down at her hands, the blood had coagulated, the wound was no longer painful, and there was no need for treatment and treatment.

"It's not! It's a friend of mine! He's hurt badly! I've got to get some medicine to save him! ”

"Friends?" Ah Bai suddenly stopped, squinted sideways at Qiu Qiong, whose face was getting paler, and asked in confusion, "That weak man, is the boss your friend?" ”

Qiu Qiong was stunned for a moment, and thought about what he said about the "weak man", which was indeed quite in line with the description of Xu Tian, and then nodded: "That's right! He's my friend! ”

"Huh?" Ah Hong also stopped, tilted his neck, and said with a sad face, "Why is he just a friend?" I saw the kiss of the century just now! ”

"Yes, yes, I saw it too!"

"You, you, you! What are you talking about! What a kiss of the century! ”

In an instant, Qiu Qiong's face was flushed.
