Chapter 80: The Mysterious Figure
I don't fight, that's a doomed answer.
No matter how angry and unhappy I am in the face of these human beings, I will not attack my fellow human beings, this is my bottom line.
Even if my hands were soaked in blood, they would not be stained with human blood that should not be killed.
With that, I threw away the blood-stained garment and turned towards the exit where I came.
There is nothing deeper than the realization of what a place the fighting arena is, a place that disregards life, whether it is human or demon.
It's like my rookie baptism battle could have ended early in the morning, but for the sake of that bloody thrill, no one reminded me that it was over.
My answer obviously shocked everyone present, no, not so much shock, but disappointed them, because of my 'perfect' performance, they didn't boo, but all kinds of talk has been heard endlessly, and I have even heard people ask, why don't I fight against humans?
The host is even more noisy and exaggerated emotional, but these are not worth paying attention to.
Just as I was about to enter the exit, an unfamiliar voice suddenly stopped me: "Wolf man, I'm also looking forward to your next performance." Are you afraid? I was disappointed. ”
I turned around and saw that the iron basket belonging to the host had been put back into the venue, a tall man wearing a fine black silk robe, with a strange long golden hair, standing in the iron cage, his appearance was rough, but there was no trace of beastly features on his body, but you could feel his strength, that kind of pressing momentum.
I was slightly shocked in my heart, and I didn't say anything in the uncertain situation, but the man continued: "You have succeeded in arousing my interest, but you have given me such a disappointing answer. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I am one of the owners of this fighting arena, a nobleman of the lion clan, called Lion Xiong. ”
I narrowed my eyes, this is the first nobleman I have seen since entering the dungeon, it is very different from the nobles I imagined in my heart, doesn't it mean that the stronger the blood of the demon clan, the higher the status? In my imagination, the closer the people here are, the more they should be full of beast characteristics, after all, this is a great proof of strong blood.
In my mind, I suddenly thought of a possibility - transfiguration! It is said that they are not real demons, and there is no such thing as avataring, but why do the nobles in the dungeon have such superficial characteristics? I found that what Nightscream was telling me wasn't all that reliable. Yes, how reliable is a civilian's experience?
As I pondered, the lion seemed to be impatient, and he said to me in a mocking tone, "You don't seem to like answering my questions very much. ”
I knew that at this time, I was afraid that I would not be able to do anything if I didn't say anything, so I said, "At this time, is there a rule of compulsory fighting in the fighting arena?" ”
My answer seemed a bit cowardly, and finally caused a boo from the crowd in the stands, but even that didn't affect my state of mind, I wouldn't have made a move on my countrymen, and if anyone forced me, I wouldn't mind overturning the arena.
"There are no such rules in your fight, this is not a forced battle. But I'm curious why? According to my observation, according to your strength, you can completely pick up this glory, even if you can't kill more than a hundred slaves, but you will definitely leave people with an unforgettable battle, the glory belongs to you, why give up? The lion seemed to be in good cultivation, and his tone was still calm in the face of my unkind answers.
"I don't fight, just because they don't deserve it." I said calmly, then raised my arms, pointed to the group of numb slaves, and continued: "I refuse to use this kind of struggle that is not life and death in exchange for glory, on the premise of keeping my name, such a fight will not make me feel baptized by blood, and my glory is not something that a human race can give me. ”
Speaking of which, I looked at the lion male unscrupulously and said word by word: "They don't deserve it." ”
These words are not that I am lying, my glory is indeed not worthy of being given to me by a group of insensitive humans, and my glory as a demon hunter should be built on the basis of slaying the great demon and guarding the human race and our inherent homeland.
But this does not affect the lion and all the beings present, and interpret my words as another meaning, they think that I am a proud demon race, and look down on the 'lowly' race of humans, and think that they are not qualified to give me glory.
The audience was silent, only Shixiong suddenly clapped his palms exaggeratedly, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to me: "If I come to the field to fight, I may not do better than you, this is not a matter of complete strength, I smell the smell of blood and killing on you, this should be the combat experience accumulated by countless actual battles." Who said that this kind of experience is not a kind of strength? From your answer, I feel a kind of pride and glory that belongs to a warrior, which I admire very much. ”
Shixiong's words were obviously his own brain supplement's understanding, but it unexpectedly caused another kind of frenzy among the audience, respecting the strong in the fighting arena, of course, only the strong are worthy of talking about glory and pride.
I was glad that they understood this, so I followed the words of the lion, "I will not fight humans in this fighting arena." They don't deserve it, because they are not born with a strong physique, and they are agile and fast, what qualifications do they have to fight me? My path to the strong is to step on the shoulders of every strong man and gradually move to the top, instead of stepping on the corpse of the weak, which will only wear out my fighting spirit and dirty the sword in my hand. ”
"Very well, I am satisfied with your answer, indeed, I have neglected the pride of a strong man. Wolf man, you can go and rest now, do whatever you want to relax yourself, and in a short time, your opening match will really begin, and I will arrange an interesting opponent for you. The lion looked at me and said word by word.
Then the iron cage slowly rose, and the figure of the lion disappeared from my eyes, and I turned around calmly and walked into the iron gate where I appeared. Behind me, the shouts of the wolf man, louder than the other, resounded throughout the audience.
Is it ironic that a group of people who have gone crazy have no regard for life, and the glory that has been given to me? Those shouts only proved their madness even more.
In some dimly lit passages, only the sound of my footsteps, I thought in silence, and just as I was about to enter the lounge that belonged to me, I saw another figure standing in front of the door of the lounge.
A sense of danger suddenly rose in my heart, I didn't know this person standing in front of the door of the break room.
Although at first glance he was so ordinary, I still could not find any beastly features in him, like a lion, although he had almost no of those beastly features, he still had long golden hair, and in his rough appearance, the obviously huge nose and triangular slightly deep eyes made him look like a lion when he looked closely.
But the man in front of me, I couldn't see any of his characteristics at all, he just stood there calmly, not tall, just a little taller than ordinary people, but I knew that this person was definitely not a pure human being, and my nose couldn't smell that pure human smell from him.
I believe in my nose very much, even Mr. Yu's delicate makeup skills don't have much effect in front of my nose, of course, I don't believe that others have such skills.
At that time, this was a seemingly innate talent that belonged to Nie Yan.
I felt this person's aura, although he was extremely restrained, it was just a joke in front of my eyes, yes, the strength of the big demon. But is this rare for me?
I continued to walk silently towards my lounge, and when I came within two meters in front of him, I pretended not to know and said to him, "Get out of the way." ”
This is the attitude I should have, a demon warrior who has just returned from victory, has a wonderful performance, and is slightly self-aggrandized. He really doesn't look at a person who looks like a human being, who looks ordinary and can't be remembered, who is not tall, and who has a restrained aura, like a person who doesn't have any aura in his eyes.
So I behaved indifferently and violently, as if the next second he didn't get out of the way, I would kill him without hesitation.
But as soon as I finished saying this, this man suddenly kicked me without warning.
Very fast, among demons, such a speed is also very good, I instinctively wanted to avoid or resist, but I resisted the urge deeply, and let him kick me in the abdomen.
A dull pain came from my abdomen, and I let out a muffled grunt, and then my body used this force to move backwards, until I hit the wall of the narrow passage, and then fell heavily to the ground and stopped.
And at this moment, the seemingly ordinary man suddenly ran, as if performing acrobatics, stepped on the edge of the wall, ran to the top of the corridor at once, and then jumped down at me from the top, and punched me in the cheek.
I was thankful that my strong teeth hadn't been knocked out, but the blood from my gums mixed with saliva spurted out of my mouth at once.
"Why refuse the last battle? Is this the super newcomer that Miaogo and Leopard will send me? ”
After the punch, the man finally spoke, and said this flatly.
