Chapter 50: Competition
After all four groups on the second floor have arrived, preparations for the residency battle begin.
A line was pulled apart, and a circle was circled in the middle of the hall, which was the place of gladiatorial fighting.
The survivors enter the middle and fight, and the team to which the last person standing belongs wins.
After a series of counts and arrangements, a total of 107 survivors on the first floor participated in the residency battle, 38 teams, 34 three-person teams, 1 two-person team, and 3 alone.
Draw lots to determine the order of the matchups, No. 1 vs. No. 2, No. 3 vs. No. 4, and so on, although it is simple, but it is also fair.
Chen Mo's side was drawn by Xia Yan, his luck was not good, and he was not bad, and the number drawn was 17,.
None of the survivors chose to announce their draws, and most remained silent.
The team that reached No. 1 was 2 men and one woman, and the team that played against them was the three men who drew No. 2.
The two teams fought together, and although the battle was not pretty, it was full of tragedy.
It's all about fighting for survival, there's no right or wrong, it's just a matter of who can get that precious right of residence.
The way of fighting is very primitive, almost not a rule, two groups of people scuffle each other, scratch their hair, flirt with their feet, poke their eyes, and the five men and one woman in the gladiatorial arena are like beasts, all beating each other with red eyes.
There were no cheers, no cheers, no taunts, and the survivors mostly watched in silence at the two teams fighting in the middle of the hall, not knowing what they were thinking.
The battle didn't last long, and the winners and losers were divided.
The last woman to stand was one of two men and one woman.
The woman's appearance was originally quite delicate, but at the moment she was no different from a madman, her white cheeks were stained with blood, the right side of her face was high and swollen, her hair was like a shrew, and the crazy color in her eyes added a bit of courage to her.
This result is a bit unexpected, but it is also reasonable, although the woman's physical strength is not as good as that of a man, but it is ruthless enough, in the previous battle, there is no scruple at all, directly pinched the underside of a man, looking at the man who fell to the ground and even released the sound of wailing, the faint blood stains on the lower body flowed out, so that the survivors present all had a feeling of cold hair handstand.
Several groups of people from the four groups walked into the arena and dragged the feet of the five men who had fallen to the ground like dead dogs, dragging them out of the arena, while the women walked out of the arena on their own.
Then there was the second game, 3 vs. 4, followed by 5 vs. 6.
The battle was very tragic and bloody, and when it was Chen Mo's turn on the 17th, the ground in the middle was already covered with blood, and the red was eye-catching.
7 battles, 3 people died, most of the others were also wounded, the fight is not skill, but animal nature, whoever is ruthless enough, who can stay, not only to the opponent, but also to themselves.
Most of the 7 battles were fights between ordinary people, and the only thing that made Chen Mo a little sideways was that a man, he was alone, against three people, and the three of them were all young men.
The battle did not last long, and the winner was quickly decided, with three people falling to the ground and one standing proudly.
A man who stands proudly is a man who is single.
There is a lot of kung fu in his fists and feet, and he is ruthless, and he almost knocks down a person with one blow.
This made Chen Mo can't help but look at it a few more times, and also remember the other party's name, Li Yile.
When Chen Mo's combination of 2 boys and a little girl entered the line, it caused the side eyes of most of the survivors, it is nothing to bring a woman, and it is relatively rare to bring a child, especially the pale color on Tongtong's face, skinny appearance, I can't see any combat effectiveness at all.
Chen Mo didn't care about the strange eyes around him, just stared coldly at the three men opposite.
Beside him, Xia Yu's face was not surprised or happy, and he was calm.
The three men looked indifferent, and they didn't take it lightly because there was a little girl in Chen Mo's team, after all, those who can have the courage to fight for the right to live on the second floor are not fools, since Chen Mo and they dare to take the little girl to fight together, then it means that the combat power of the two of them is definitely not bad, there is no mercy here, there is no sympathy, and ridicule is superfluous, yes, just who can stand in the end.
The standoff didn't last long before it was broken.
The first to attack was Xia Yu, and only Xia Yu, one person, rushed towards the three of them.
Chen Mo just watched from the sidelines with a cold eye, in his opinion, the momentum of the three people opposite was good, but it was just good, Xia Yu alone was enough.
Facing the rushing Xia Yu, the three men greeted him at the same time.
This is not too fair a battle, Xia Yu's speed is too much higher than the three of them, almost at the moment of contact, a punch has been quickly swung out, bringing out a whistling sound, like thunder, like lightning, the hands of the current first person have just been raised, and they have been hit by Xia Yu's punch in the door, after a muffled sound, blood splashed on the man's cheeks like a pear blossom, and his body flew back upside down, falling heavily to the ground, and fainting.
Xia Yan, who had succeeded in the first blow, had no expression on his face, turned sideways and let go of the straight punch attacked by the second person, hooked his right foot and staggered forward, staggering his body at the same time, a hand knife slashed at the back of his head, and the man fell to the ground.
After knocking down the two people in an instant, facing the last third person, Xia Yu spun on the spot, his body rose in the air, kicked out with a side kick, and stepped on the chest of the third person, the third person was like being hit by a heavy truck, and his body suddenly flew out diagonally, flew out of the field, and struggled for a long time without getting up.
One person knocked out three people, which made the already silent hall even quieter, whether it was the people watching the battle in the four major groups, or the survivors who came up from the first floor, they were all silent, obviously shocked by Xia Yu's move.
This is not a level contest at all.
Chen Mo was not too surprised by Xia Yu's performance, no matter what, Xia Yu had also led a middle-level small group, and three or five ordinary people were not his opponents at all.
I don't know what level Xu Dong should be at? Senior? The top floor? Chen Mo thought about it, and finally felt that this idea was too boring, with Xu Dong's non-human strength, how could he be caught here.
The first round of the battle ended quickly, and there were only 8 teams in the second round, although some teams won, but they won miserably, and they were unable to fight the second battle, and the urgency of time would not give them a chance to recuperate, so they wisely chose to give up, as long as people don't die, there will always be hope, this is the self-consolation idea of those winning teams.
It's just that they will be able to hold out until the next release of the residency quota? These survivors didn't think about it, or rather, didn't dare to think about it.
Those who were not injured in the first round of battle, in addition to Chen Mo's team, there was also the single man named Li Yile, although the other 6 teams were not too seriously injured, but most of them also had some injuries.
With injuries versus no injuries, it is inevitable that he will suffer some losses, and Chen Mo is still Xia Yu on his side, and he can easily defeat the opponent.
In the end, there were 4 teams left, except for Li Yile alone and Chen Mo, the remaining two teams were a three-man combination, one of which was composed of three strong men, all three of them were covered in blood, but their eyes were flashing with a brave spirit, which should not be underestimated, and the other team was three young people, and the skills revealed in the battle were quite orderly, although they were not as strong as Xia Yu and Li Yile, but they also had their own breath of practicing their families, obviously all three of them had learned some kung fu.
The battle was still decided in the order of the draw, Chen Mo and the others unfortunately drew No. 1, and faced the strong trio who drew No. 2.
Looking at the three people opposite who were covered in blood and extremely brave, Chen Mo's expression was a little solemn.
"Do you want me to help?"
Xia Yu shook his head.
"It's just three guys with brute strength, it's not necessary, it's just an ordinary strong man from the lowest level, I can still handle it! You just protect the little one behind you! ”
Seeing that Xia Yu said this, Chen Mo didn't say anything anymore, but just took a step back and said lightly.
"Then be careful yourself!"
