Chapter 195: Introducer 2
Mr. Slim looked around to see no one, then pulled Alan into the darkness, and the two stood silently, observing the passers-by.
"If we appear in the hinterland of the Bloodline very suddenly, it will definitely arouse suspicion. You should know that the Bloodline is a race with a very serious class mentality. What they value most is the nobility and origin of the bloodline, which is also the most fundamental reason why the three major clans fight each other. Each clan considers its own bloodline to be the most noble and inviolable, and the others are second-rate. ”
"Sleigh Bermuda is a special case in the blood clan, he never intervenes in clan battles, although his status in the Zabat clan is not low, but he has never stepped out of Hesse Castle in ordinary times, only the clan's important council once every hundred years, he will appear."
"We need a referral, and you have to remember that your identity is now a declining bloodline, pure bloodline but not appreciated. This marriage order is your best chance to win the heart of the Grand Duchess and revive your family. You have to keep that in mind, and that's what we say when we face Slys. ”
Alan asked puzzledly, "How can you guarantee that this Count Sleith will agree to be my introducer?" ”
"Some of the most prominent members of parliament in our court have been investigated. This Shrees's favorite thing to do is to find talent. Now that he has a large number of young generation powerhouses in his hands, you should have heard of Numa, right? ”
"Numa?" Alan couldn't help but think hard, and then he couldn't help but say in surprise, "I remember, wasn't the task of the torch that day to capture Numa?" ”
"That's right, Numa is a half-werewolf, and such an identity is very sensitive wherever it is placed. I can't help but think that the werewolf will think that his bloodline is inferior, let alone the bloodline. However, despite the opposition of the outside world, and even the opposition of his blood clan, this Count Slais insisted on keeping this Numa by his side, and entrusted him with the important task of becoming the chief steward of the entire Earl's Palace. The right to the position of the great steward is small. It's really big. Since taking office, this Numa has kept the Earl's Mansion in good order, and even those blood clans who once looked down on him have to admire his ability, which shows Slais's way of employing people. ”
"We don't know what kind of purpose he has, such a reserve of talent. But at least in terms of referrals, he is indeed the most suitable person. The premise is that you have to stand out in this bloody gladiatorial tournament and win first place before he can look at you squarely. At that point, you're proposing your own conditions, and the odds will be much greater! ”
Alan nodded, "Exactly." Let's go to the Colosseum and have a look. Look at what these bloody gladiatorial fights like these so-called nobles loved. ”
The two of them stepped out of the shadows, and then merged into the endless crowd, and without asking for directions, they were pushed by the crowd towards the huge gladiatorial arena in the center of Hessian Castle.
The gladiatorial arena of Hessian Castle is extremely large and seemingly endless as far as the eye can see, with a circular design and the main entrance supported by two giant stone pillars up to 100 meters high, under which two giant steam engines are located. Hundreds of huge iron chains with a diameter of half a meter are used to connect them to the heavy stone gate. When the gladiatorial fight begins, the stone gate falls. It is meant that there is no life or death, and only the last victor is qualified to walk under this stone gate.
Behind the huge stone gate is a huge grandstand that can accommodate 30,000 people, and the central field of the gladiatorial arena is paved with yellow sand, and eight black iron cages are suspended in the air by huge stone pillars.
Alan's eyes were so sharp that he could see the traces left on the cage as the blood had dried up. The pitch black of the entire iron cage turned out to be made of blood stains. It can be seen that there are many gladiators who have died here.
Because the preliminaries of the tournament will be held tomorrow, the entire gladiatorial arena has been carefully arranged, especially the rostrum located directly west of the gladiatorial arena, which has been finely decorated. The patterns on the stone pillars on both sides are particularly delicate, highlighting the magnificent style of the blood clan. On the guardrail of the rostrum is a mural pattern of two blood-drenched swords crossed together, which foreshadows the overall tone of the entire gladiatorial process. This is where the word gore comes from!
On the eve of the competition, the entire arena is open to the public, and the organizers of the tournament have spared no effort to attract more people here. Even gambling markets have been opened in many places. The odds are even more scary.
Alan curiously came to a bustling handicap and saw a werewolf man say excitedly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today I would like to recommend to you one of the favorites to win the championship, and that is the warrior from our wolf clan - Laikaon. He was born with divine power, and he has participated in more than 100 battles large and small, and he has never tasted defeat. And before coming to the Bloody Gladiatorial Tournament, he also participated in the giant gladiatorial battle within the wolf clan and won the title of champion. Ladies and gentlemen, no matter how strong this year's players are, our Lekawong will definitely win the championship! ”
Under the words of this werewolf man, some young werewolves were agitated and excited, and one by one they couldn't help but scream, almost revealing the form of beasts.
Alan couldn't help but smile and shake his head, exited the crowd, and then came to the audience and looked at the environment inside the gladiatorial arena.
"Looks like we're in a hurry this time." Mr. Slime stood next to Allen and asked, "I should have collected more information about these players." ”
Alan smiled: "It's okay, I still have some confidence in myself, just with my evolved strength and speed, I believe that none of these fighters can compare to me." Besides, if I'm not an opponent, I can completely consume the opponent to death. Don't forget my special abilities. ”
"It's better to use your abilities sparingly, in case someone detects the smell of the virus, I'll see how you end up." Mr. Slim whispered.
"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about now, as Esther, I'm a Blood, so it should be okay to drain my opponent's blood and replenish my energy, right? ”
"Why, when did you want to open it, haven't you always been disgusted?" Mr. Slime asked.
"I'm still disgusted, but I've had to make some concessions in order to achieve something. I won't let the bloodthirsty ** dominate me, and I won't use it lightly until the last resort. Alan said with a serious expression.
Mr. Slim smiled slightly, patted Alan on the shoulder, and said nothing more.
That night, Alan and the others found a hotel to stay in, and then waited for the next day.
Alan lay in bed and couldn't sleep for a while. He was worried about Selena and Fasqi now, but Alexia had already returned to the Silver City, quietly waiting for Alan's return.
According to Mr. Slim, the alien battlefield will regularly send back the list of the dead, and as long as it is not on this list, it is safe for the time being. The death list is transmitted every three months, which means that Alan will have to wait at least three months to get the news that the two are safe.
Mr. Sliff explains to Eren why he threw Fasqi into the interracial battlefield, and Eren can't help but feel a pang of his head. The chaotic situation of the republic was difficult for him to understand. The only thing he could do now was to become stronger as soon as possible. As long as the development of Luoyin City is on the right track, after Allen's slowly accumulated power explodes, and with the support of the Inquisition, Allen will have enough strength to fully control his own destiny and be able to help and support Fasqi.
Selena's departure Alan can also understand that he is only to blame for being too weak, so in the final analysis, in today's world, strength is the foundation of everything.
Alan tossed and turned, not intending to sleep, but began to list the information in his body one by one, and then optimize and refine it.
The combination of the three virus weapons and the split consciousness is Allen's most powerful means of attack, but Allen can't use it at will. So before leaving the Inquisition, at the suggestion of Mr. Slim, Allen condensed the virus weapon into a black long sword lying beside him at the moment.
This black sword is comparable in appearance to an ordinary knight's sword, the only difference is that the blade and hilt are pitch-black without a trace of variegation. This is a weapon condensed by Allen through the prototype virus, and when attacking, the split consciousness can be stored in the long sword, and then the purpose of absorbing the opponent's essence and blood can be achieved.
This should be called a vampire sword in the strict sense of the word.
With this vampire sword is not enough, Eren also used the virus to construct an inner armor, which is currently being worn close to his body. Eren infused the vampire sword and inner armor with special life metal at the same time, so these two pieces of equipment have been completely isolated from the virus aura, and even the strong of the blood clan cannot detect it, and can only be regarded as a weapon with special abilities.
Mr. Slim also found some Bloodline skills for Alan. However, due to the short time, Alan didn't have time to take a closer look, so he came up with a compromise solution, which was to use his speed and strength, and use the simplest way of fighting to cover up the flaws of his combat skills.
Once his offensive is sharp and swift enough, it will create an illusion in the eyes of the blood clan, and the simple and direct combat technique is also a gorgeous performance.
After carefully repeating the preparations of the past few days in his mind, Alan put his mind at ease and went to sleep. Because tomorrow's battle will be witnessed by 30,000 people, and there is also the strong Slais Bermuda of the blood clan, all efforts will be wasted if the horse's feet are exposed. So Alan can't make a mistake!
Loud trumpets and war drums knocked on the doors of the Colosseum of Hesse Castle, and 30,000 spectators from all over the world poured in.
Allen sat quietly in the player's lounge, unconcerned by the hostile eyes around him. Until a tall figure appeared in front of him.
"Boy, you're here to compete, too?" (To be continued.) )
