Just as a fighter looks down on a mechanic, a mechanic always looks down on a fighter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the eyes of the mechanics, they control the crystallization of human technology, they create robots, they give physical substance to illusory AI, and fighters are just a bunch of brainless fools.

Originally, under the influence of countless predecessors, Edward had a little bit of this tendency, but this little tendency was completely shattered on the first day after he became a martial artist.

From the perspective of Atlantis, King Kong's giant fist is like a symbol of the end, between lightning and flint, Edward has only just analyzed how his "one-time crit shock arm" was knocked away, and Atlantis was caught in the storm of power, anti-gravity construction erupted with all its might, lightsaber blocking, Atlantis's fighting instinct ...... Edward tried everything he could, but to no avail.

Broken, broken, destroyed.

Edward, who truly experienced that moment, already understood what a fighter was.

Fighters are the last group of fighters in this extremely safe world, and the last group of fighters in the human world...... The one who dances on the border of death - the brave.

For some reason, the surroundings are no longer the scenery in the same cabin. Edward forcefully lifted his head, and saw the resident physician of the gladiatorial arena running towards him, followed by Senior Temo and a certain martial artist, and many others......

Is this what death smells like...... Edward blinked in confusion and fainted.

"Latest Brief: At 4 p.m. American time, a wonderful mechanical beast challenge broke out at the public mechanical universities of North America. A mysterious novice fighter directly challenged the personality mechanical beast at the bottom of the box in the 'Tiger Roar' gladiatorial arena, and through a wonderful battle, it was revealed that the 'Tiger Roar' gladiatorial arena replaced AI with people to participate in the mechanical beast challenge, it is reported that the owner of the gladiatorial arena, Phyllis Dylan, has been detained by the police for deceiving the audience and suspected of violating the "Fighter Protection Act", but according to the latest interview with this reporter, Mr. Phyllis's behavior does not seem to be really illegal...... For details, please pay attention to the follow-up ...... of the incident"

Amid the sound of the news announcement, Edward slowly opened his eyes.

"Ah, you're awake?"

"You...... Good. Edward looked at the girl sitting at the head of his bed with some surprise, "I'm ......"

"This is the medical department, remember, you triggered the death shield." Anne smiled and replied, "I happened to be sent to my teacher, so I'll sit here and look at you." ”

"Did I pass out?" Edward sat up a little dizzy, and looked around, the white-toned ward, sure enough, the architectural style of the medical department, and the angelic girl...... It's just amazing.

"You're still a fighter? You're the skinniest fighter I've ever seen," Anne laughed, "How are you feeling right now?" ”

"Uh...... It's good, it's very good, it's like nothing happened~" Edward sat up a little embarrassed, he remembered the flirting skills that Teacher Dinah had taught him, but he just thought of that, his face turned red, and he didn't even think about it, "So...... How are you? ”

"Poof," Anne couldn't help laughing, "the first time I've seen a patient who asks the doctor how is it, I'm fine, I couldn't be better." ”

Looking at the girl covering her mouth and smiling in the light, Edward only felt that he had seen an angel.

However...... By the time Edward came to his senses, he was already standing at the door of the Affiliated Hospital of Peking Gong University, and Anne smiled and waved at a window upstairs and disappeared from view.

What I just did. What I just did. What I just did.

As if it had just been electrified, Edward's brain only continued to function until now, you know, in front of the girl, his social skills are about equal to 0, so ...... As soon as it exceeds the capacity of his mind, he will fall into an instinctive state of woodenness.

"Damn it...... I should have asked her for a phone number, shouldn't I? Edward wanted to cry without tears, he almost knelt and turned on his smart watch, but a lot of information suddenly popped up in the floating projection!

"Uh, greetings from Senior Timo...... Speaking of which, Senior Timo sent me here, thank him so much, and send any good goods to their store next time. ”

"Who is this? The Smasher? Challenge book? What the heck...... When the spam text message was deleted it......"

"Well, today is ...... I've been in a coma for a day? Absentee notices and anxious inquiries from Sam's gang? Ha, I think I'll have to explain it to them when I go back. ”

The thought of this Edward gave me a headache, how could I explain it to them. Continuing to flip through the messages, Edward saw a bunch of strange things, like the New York Police Department, the New York Courthouse, and the Bank of New York...... It seemed to be all news related to that news, and Edward didn't look closely.

"Wait...... What is this," Edward suddenly showed an extremely confused expression, and a message was pulled out by him to amplify, magnify, and magnify again, "'Tiger Roar' gladiatorial arena? Sent me ...... Twenty thousand...... Wait, how many zeros are there? ”

2000000？ Edward's pupils constricted! Behind the two...... followed...... One two three four five? Five zeros! Is that...... Million?

Two million ...... Federated Coins!

This...... What the heck!!!

……

……

NYPD.

Lilith Dylan bowed her head and took small steps behind a graceful woman, her face full of pity.

"Mrs. Phyllis, you're here," a policeman said, tossing an electronic file to the woman through a floating projection, nodding at her, "This is the court's decision, and it has been decided that you can now take your brother back." ”

"Thank you, officer." The woman said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I will take my unruly husband back." ”

As the two of them walked to the detention cell, the woman said, "Lily, do you know where you were wrong this time?" ”

"Don't be impulsive and show your hole cards in advance." The girl said weakly, completely devoid of the arrogance in the same cabin before.

"Wrong."

"You shouldn't listen to Uncle Filly and help him ravage newbies to make money......"

"Ravaging newbies? Are you embarrassed to say that? Wrong! ”

"It shouldn't ...... Underestimating the enemy? If he had taken it seriously from the beginning, he would have ...... long ago"

"Wrong! These are just mistakes! I'm sure you won't do it again, but! The woman turned around suddenly, her blue eyes full of anger, "What is it that you use our family's power to check that kid's identity!" ”

Lilith's little face suddenly turned pale, and she said hesitantly, "I...... I'm just not relieved enough! I want to ...... in future competitions."

"Lilith Dylan, I've warned you before, but I'll say it again today." The woman's eyes flashed with indifference, "Your strength comes from your loneliness, if anyone understands you, you are not far from your greatest failure!" ”

In deathly silence, the two walked through the all-black "confessional passage" to the detention cell.

"But sister, aren't you ...... too," said Lilith, in a voice that only she could hear, "did you choose to fail?" ”

Poof. As the pneumatic cell door opened, the two could finally hear Phyllis's voice in the detention cell, only to see the strong man curled up and squatting in the corner, looking at the paper verdict wet with tears on his face.

"Wife, Lily, did the court really award 50% of the proceeds of this competition to that kid, and fined 25%......" Phyllis couldn't help crying, "That's 2 million and 1 million!" That's a total of 3 million! ”

"Oh, then you have to think about it...... You still have 1 million in income, don't you? Seeing Phyllis, the woman's voice was not as indifferent as before, but as warm as a spring breeze, and her expression returned to the softness that a normal woman should have, while Lilith's expression seemed to be slowly dyed with frost, and became as arrogant and indifferent as before in the same cabin.

"And the court ordered our gladiatorial arena to be closed for a month...... In this way, 1 million will shrink by another 20%, how can we live......"

Lilith turned and walked to the front, while the Phyllis and Phyllis were still chattering to each other behind them.

It's annoying. Lilith thought as she buried her envy deeply.

……

……

It took him a long time to read through all the information about New York before Edward figured out what had happened while he was unconscious.

Phyllis, the owner of the Tiger Roar Arena, has long manipulated the matchmaking system in the arena to find fighters to fight the challenger instead of the AI system, which has greatly damaged the credibility of the Tiger Roar Arena among fighters.

In the match between King Kong and Atlantis, in order to obtain greater benefits, Phyllis forcibly created a match with too large a difference in strength when he "knew that Edward was the first game". Although he used artificial substitution of AI to reduce the danger, the fighter who can control King Kong finally lost control of his emotions, causing Edward to fall into a coma, which made Phyllis violate the "Fighter Protection Act", but since Edward's injuries were not serious, Phyllis can also explain that this is "the result of leaving his hand", so the plot is relatively light.

In summary, the court ordered Phyllis to fine the Tiger Roar Arena 25% of the proceeds from the competition, increase Edward's share of the tournament reward to 50% as compensation, and suspend the Tiger Roar Arena for one month, with immediate effect.

Then, Edward thought for a long time, only to realize that the original profit from this game was already 4 million federal coins.

Opening the Internet, Edward found that news of that game was now circulating on various websites...... Atlantis, already on fire.

Atlantis...... Thinking of this, Edward suddenly felt a pain in his heart.

He lost it, Atlantis, and the AI core he just acquired, although it was only a game, but that Glamour No. 5 core also accompanied him through a life-and-death situation, he survived, but it died.

All memories of fighting as part of Edward's body, and the experience accumulated in the battle against King Kong, are gone.

For a moment, Edward felt ...... What is 2 million? Even if it was only for a moment, but he really thought it that way.
