Chapter 28: The Underground Fighting Arena
The location of the 'Black Star' fighting arena was very hidden, and after getting off the car on the outskirts of the city, Zhao Hongying led Shen Mu to turn around and find a compound.
From a long distance, you can see that the courtyard wall is very high, and there are many trees transplanted around it. Walking from the path, I saw a lot of guards along the way, and there were almost dozens of people in the open and in the dark, it seems that they are really wealthy!
This place was obviously not for ordinary people, and they were stopped before they could reach the gate. The other party was quite polite, saying that it was forbidden to trespass in private places.
Zhao Hongying should have come here often, and after showing something similar to an identity card, the other party didn't stop her, but she glanced at Shen Mu a few more times when she was on the side of the road.
When I walked into the courtyard, I realized what it meant to be different. The first sense is that it is big, and the courtyard is very large, even bigger than the campus of No. 3 Middle School. There is a parking lot on the side, and there are not many people coming at this time, only a few magic speeders are parked here and there. The open space in the middle has been converted into training grounds of various sizes, and all kinds of advanced training facilities are very complete, which is much better than what is used in the school.
Passed through the training ground, and in the back was a row of houses. This house is built a bit exquisitely, all in the style of the medieval aristocracy, and the elegant taste of the ancient aristocracy is revealed from the cracks in the wall.
"Red tassel is here?" Just as Shen Mu was still looking around, an old man with elegant manners walked towards them with a smile.
"Fourth uncle, where is your old man?" Zhao Hongying was very respectful to the old man, immediately straightened her back and bowed slightly.
"I told you that you don't have to be so polite, you kid!" the old man shook his head with a smile, then looked at Shen Mu and asked, "This kid is a little eye-catching, is it the first time to play?"
"Oh, it's the younger brother of a friend of mine. Last time, I heard from you that there was an urgent need for a therapist, so I wanted him to give it a try. Although he is only in his first year of high school now, he is very talented and has very solid basic skills. Zhao Hongying took the opportunity to introduce Shen Mu to the old man.
Looking at Zhao Hongying's respectful appearance, Shen Mu didn't dare to underestimate this old man. After a quick look at it more covertly, he found that this old man was really not simple. Not to mention the well-groomed hair and delicate clothes and accessories, the momentum on the body alone does not dare to be underestimated.
While Shen Mu was looking at the other party, the old man was also secretly observing him. The seventeen or eighteen-year-old's face was still a little immature, but he didn't despise a young man because of that. In his life experience, he has seen many outstanding young people who have shown extraordinary natural abilities, so he is willing to give young people more opportunities.
"The young people are really getting better and better now!come, come and try it!" the old man nodded at Shen Mu, and then led them into a room.
This is a large indoor training ground, and the training environment and equipment are much better than the outdoor training ground outside. There are also their own testing instruments around them, which can detect the physical state of the trainers at any time, and there are full-time coaches to guide them at any time.
Such a training ground is simply not too luxurious!
At this time, there were two people on the training ground practicing against each other. Looking at the way they fought, Shen Mu only felt a cold sweat rising on the back of his neck.
It is a battle between a warrior and a shaman. The warrior is a fourth-order double-edged battle, and the shaman is also a fourth-order martial artist. Both of them are melee classes, and the level of popularity in the fight is simply staggering.
Shen Mu can also be regarded as having seen what an underground fighting match is. The two of them don't want any defense at all, every shot is a killing move, and when they see blood, they can't wait to kill each other immediately.
The offensive of the double-edged battle is very ferocious, and his weapon is a relatively unpopular Qimen weapon, the hook and sickle. Wu Dousa uses a more traditional totem pole, the difference is that the upper end of his totem pole is inlaid with many barbs, which looks more like a mace. A stick swept across the shoulders of the double-edged battle, directly tearing off large pieces of flesh and blood. At the same time, his double hooks also slashed at the opponent's waist, and the hook on the tip of the knife instantly hooked through Wu Dousa's lower abdomen, and blood gushed out and flowed to the ground.
It's just a training, do you want to work so hard?
Shen Mu was shocked, and as soon as he raised his hands, the 'Basic Healing Technique' and the 'Secondary Healing Technique' emitted continuously, and two milky white rays of light shrouded the two of them respectively, and the healing effect began to take effect.
The old man looked at Shen Mu with a little surprise. Continuous healing is not a magical skill, but a more advanced manipulation skill. This kind of technique is usually only accessible to fifth-order priests when they are promoted to the profession, and even many sixth-order priest professions can't be learned. It's really hard to imagine that a freshman who has just entered high school has actually learned?
"Yes, it's really terrifying!" the old man nodded affirmatively: "Wait and go through the formalities!
This is considered a passing of the interview. Someone on the sidelines immediately took Shen Mu to the office, and a document contract was placed directly in front of him.
Although the underground fighting arena is illegal, it is obvious that the 'Black Star' has the strength and background, and the work is also magnificent, and the employment contract is definitely the most formal. The salary is clearly marked on it, which is higher than expected, 13,000 per month, and the bonus or something is calculated separately.
This treatment is much better than his being a waiter in a small restaurant!
After signing the contract, he changed into the work clothes of the 'Black Star', and was also equipped with a magic wand. It's not a very good kind, but it's better than nothing! You know, even the cheapest wand costs tens of thousands!
Through simple understanding, he now knew that this 'Black Star' fighting arena was not a simple fighting arena. In Earthly terms, it's more like a comprehensive private clubhouse, which contains almost all kinds of entertainment facilities, and underground fighting tournaments are just one of its major lucrative events. In addition, it also sells equipment and equipment, magic skill cheats, various potions, and magic crystals of various levels. Of course, the vast majority of the items sold here are contraband, which are simply not available in the normal market, so the prices are also very expensive.
"This place is definitely profitable, very profitable!" Shen Mu came to an extremely red-eyed conclusion after a general visit.
"Can you not make money? There are usually four games a night here, and the average gambling amount can reach more than 5 million. Counting other entertainment facilities and item transactions, it is normal to have tens of millions of funds in a day. If there is a major competition or a major auction, there is no way to estimate it. Zhao Hongying was a little red when she said it. It's not making money at all, it's just grabbing money! It's not even that fast.
Of course, they are all very aware that a fighting arena like this is not something that ordinary people can afford to play at all. I don't know who is the boss behind 'Black Star'?
"Is it really okay for you to play here?" Shen Mu noticed the sign on Zhao Hongying's chest, saying that he really didn't expect Zhao Hongying to dare to play here.
"There are many kinds of underground fights. I played in the warm-up games, which was the first game of the warm-up. The main thing is to stir up the atmosphere, and there is nothing dangerous about it. There's my game tonight, you can come and watch it. Zhao Hongying explained.
"Okay, I really haven't seen what an underground fighting match is like?" Shen Mu was a little excited.
