33. Gao Tianzun's hidden worries
On the gladiatorial arena of Saka, the dust was flying, and the blood was mixed with the skin, and it was soon mixed with sweat under the scorching sun, which made this gladiator look very embarrassed, but the more that kind of brushing shoulders with death, the more that kind of Jedi counter-killing, the more it could mobilize the emotions of the audience and make them crazy for these gladiators who fought to the death.
And in the chorus of thousands of people, completely ending the opponent with the sword in his hand, standing in the blood of the opponent, opening his arms, enjoying the praise of the audience, standing in the highest position in a field of flying petals and ribbons, this is perhaps the greatest glory of a gladiator.
"Bang"
The fists shining with dark green flames smashed on the body of the Earth Elemental Warrior in front of him, smashing its heavy shell, and the heavy Earth Elemental took a step back, hurriedly trying to extinguish the flames on his body, but was rushed up by the beast-like gladiator in front of him and kicked him down.
Drax rode on the body of this earth elemental, his two fists had no defense, only lit a demonic fire, he roared like a beast, and with each roar, the body of the earth elemental under him was stripped away, and the scene was like quarrying with a wind hammer, and the dust and rubble that burst out made the entire gladiatorial arena go crazy.
"Destroyer! Destroyer!"
There weren't many spectators, of course, it was only a prelude to the Battle of Champions in the qualifiers, and they were far from the real knockout rounds, but even the few spectators were impressed by Drax's ferocity-like frenzy, roaring hoarsely and screaming the nickname of the Destroyer, and some excitedly, taking off their clothes and waving them in the audience.
Kindness... Both men and women.
Gladiatorial fighting, this is the characteristic of Saka, here to survive, you can be lazy, you can be stupid, you can steal or rob, but you must not be disgusted with gladiatorial fighting.
"Roar!"
Already stimulated by the rage of the battle, Drax raised his fist and threw the last punch at the dying earth elemental beneath him, but at the moment of swinging the punch, he saw the panic and despair shining in the eyes of the earth elemental warrior, and with a swing of his arm, the fist rubbed the earth elemental's cheek fiercely and smashed into the stone slab next to him.
"Bang"
Bricks and stones splashed, the Destroyer calmed his breath, stood up expressionlessly, and waved his fist at the audience, this action made the screams in the audience even greater, especially some enthusiastic alien girls, boldly shouted all kinds of sensational words to Drax, but he had completely said goodbye to the past Destroyer was no longer immersed in this feeling, his life became purer, and this purity, made him stronger.
The Destroyer strode back into the gladiator's passage, ignoring the gladiators in front of him who were ready to play, and those guys would make way for him when they saw the Destroyer.
This year's championship battle has a very high gold content, even if it is only the first promotion match, more than a dozen people have died, and the intensity of the battle is definitely the highest in 200 years, and the battlefield beast in front of him, winning all ten battles, is simply a madman born for battle.
Drax is undoubtedly a very characteristic gladiator, his fighting style is very much to the taste of the audience, he is always straight, punching like the wind, even the furious four-armed demon ape is not his opponent, and he does not like to talk in battle, he does not wear much armor, he is bare-chested, and the hideous tattoo is like the best tattoo in the sun, he is a typical player who does not talk much.
But what makes the audience most curious is that every time he appears, Drax carries a hideous war hammer behind his back, but from the opening to the present, Drax has played 10 games, but no one has ever seen him use that war hammer.
"He must have felt that his opponents were too weak, and the Destroyer could easily deal with them with his fists!"
An avid fan of Drax waved a crude poster and said to the others, "He'll only use weapons when he meets a truly powerful guy!"
"Speaking of which, do you think this gladiatorial fight is surprisingly good-looking!"
Another middle-aged man with horns responded: "The champion of the previous year, the big guy Ziggy, is placed here, and it is estimated that he can only fight with the destroyer..."
"Fart!"
The fanatical fan took a sip and scolded: "The mighty destroyer can hammer Qige with a single fist!" I heard that this time Gao Tianzun invited all the previous champions, even those who have quit the gladiators will come to have a ceremonial fight, only Zige's cowardice dare not come!"
"That's right, everybody says Ziggy is the best water champion of all time!"
The others nodded their heads, and then, for some reason, someone suddenly started another topic:
"Speaking of which, some say that the Destroyer is the Overlord's warrior... This time I came to Sakaxing, and I was also ordered by the overlord to temper my martial arts. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, it was cold, and even the most loyal fans of the Destroyer no longer refuted it, they felt that if it was a character like the Overlord, there was actually nothing wrong with the powerful Destroyer being willing to be a follower.
"Overlord. ”
An old man who looked very status-like touched his beard and sighed: "That's really the strongest gladiator I've ever seen in my life for more than 80 years... A fist hammered out an ancestral leaping beast, so strong that people feel scared when they think about it... Gao Tianzun also seems to feel that the battle of champions is becoming more and more boring, this time he simply found such a ruthless character as the defending champion, it has been 5 days, and no one dares to name the overlord... Can anyone really beat him?"
"It doesn't matter if no one can beat it. ”
The avid fan of the Destroyer shrugged his shoulders: "A person like the Overlord is born to chase victory, he won the championship, I am convinced!"
"It's not a question of being convinced or not, kid, it's still too simple for you to think about it, no matter how tough the overlord is, at the end of this championship battle, all the gladiators of the Southern Galaxy will be desperate to prevent him from winning the championship as long as he is a little bloody..."
The old man, who seemed to be a gentleman who had a real knowledge of gladiatorial combat, was silent for a moment, and when all eyes fell on him, he explained in a low voice:
"If the overlord wins the championship in this way, there will be another sculpture on the totem of the god of war... And, for sure, it's on top of the other four sculptures..."
The old man was silent again, then looked up at the tallest building on Saka, the steel totem pole, which already had four sculptures on it, and the top spot was still empty.
"The gladiatorial king of this universe... It's going to be born!"
Naturally, the fandom could not reach Drax's ears, but the Destroyer was washing up and preparing to work out when he encountered an uninvited guest.
"You! you're his new lackey, aren't you?"
A voice full of hatred came from behind Drax, and the Destroyer turned his head to see a young man with short blond hair, a golden beard, and a battle armor, who looked at Drax with a hateful gaze and pointed at him viciously:
"I'll kill you in the arena first, and then I'll kill him! I swear! in the name of Asgard!"
Drax shrugged his shoulders in the face of this threat, and he spread his hands:
"I expect you to kill me, so I can teach you with my fists that unruly wild dogs should not howl at lions! What is your name?"
"Thor!"
——————————————————————-
"I said, where did you get such a guy?"
Gao Tianzun watched the 10 gladiatorial battles of Drax the Destroyer with an evocative gaze, and he looked at Cyber while reaching out and taking a glass of wine:
"What a natural ace gladiator, I wanted to buy him from you, but I know you won't agree, by the way, why wouldn't he use that warhammer..."
The Universe Elder frowned as he looked at it:
"Wait, what do I think of this warhammer... So familiar. ”
"It's called the War Staff, and it comes from Ares. ”
As he chewed on the berries, Cyber pointed to the top of his head, "It's the guy who is carved into the third place on your steel totem, he's dead, dead on earth, and there are no bones left." ”
"Oh..."
Gao Tianzun stretched out his voice, then pursed his lips, and said with a regretful expression: "That was one of the champions with the highest gold content at the beginning of the championship battle, what a pity." ”
After saying that, he looked at Cyber with a strange gaze:
"So, you started purging your opponents a long time ago, right?"
"What?"
Cyber didn't quite understand what Gao Tianzun meant, and the latter coughed lightly and explained:
"You see the pillar, right? There's five slots on it, and there are already four candidates, Ares, the horse-faced Thor, the disgusting humanoid, and my favorite gladiator two-headed beast, the four of them are the most promising gladiators and candidates for the upcoming Southern Galactic Gladiator King. ”
"And as long as I become the king of gladiatorial fighting, I can fulfill one of his wishes. ”
Gao Tianzun shrugged his shoulders:
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not like my brother who is always cheating and cheating, even if my gladiator king tells me that he wants to be the master of this universe, I will help him make it happen, I'm telling the truth..."
"Oh. ”
Cyber snorted, and stopped talking, which made Gao Tianzun a little surprised, he rolled his eyes and looked at Cyber:
"Aren't you impressed?"
"No, what I want, I'm more used to taking it myself. ”
Cyber picked up another berry the size of a fist, and while eating it, he said to Gao Tianzun:
"Even if you support me to become the master of the universe, as long as you leave, I will still be overthrown, won't I?"
"Hahahaha!"
Gao Tianzun seemed to have heard some joke, he leaned back and slammed the table with laughter:
"Sure enough, sure enough, you're an interesting fellow, as my brother Tanya Tivan said, and I'm looking forward to the day when you'll become the king of gladiatorial fights. ”
"I'm more curious, what do you need a gladiator king to do for you?"
Cyber looked at Gao Tianzun: "Don't prevaricate me with the reason that you like gambling, I can feel that all this you have done, waiting for thousands of years on the star of Saka, just like your brother, you are also waiting for something... That's the gladiator king, and you need him to do something for you... Tell me, what's that?"
"Are you sure you want to listen?"
Gao Tianzun leaned back on the sofa playfully, and he whispered, "Cyber, there is no turning back after listening. ”
"Bang"
Sai Bo put the half-eaten berries on the table and pushed them to the high heavenly venerable, he raised his head and said seriously:
"I want the most mysterious black light ring, if you can help me get it, I will be your gladiatorial king!"
"Tsk, what greed!"
Gao Tianzun smiled, the light in his eyes shone like the Milky Way, and he said in a deep voice:
"Wait for you to become the king of gladiatorial fights, and then make a request for me, but I can tell you about this grievance... The multiverse is huge, you know?"
"19,999 universes, and not counting the ones that haven't been discovered, Tanlia told me. ”
Cyber nodded, and then he heard Gao Tianzun say in a tone of irritability:
"The Cosmic Elders are all over the universe, and although we have been disbanded due to some things, they are still connected to each other, and gambling is such a thing as a game that can only be fun to play with people of the same time. ”
"I love gambling, it's the most rewarding thing in my long life, but if you gamble with someone ten times and lose nine times, and only one last chance remains, you're like a gambler who has lost all your money, and you want to take the last chance to turn over, and I'm the gambler, and my opponent is a creature born in the first days of the universe, his name..."
"Barbatos!"
