Chapter 18: The God of the Arena (9)
Renesa in the stands also saw that Gu Shiyu seemed to be in better shape than York. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info she happily distributed lollipops to her little cheerleaders, as if she had become their leader.
"Child, how much bet did you buy Gu Shiyu to work so hard for him?" an old man sitting next to him couldn't help but ask.
"A lot!" Resa nodded matter-of-factly.
"Alas, if you don't learn well at a young age, what kind of gambling will you be! If you were my granddaughter, I would beat you severely. ”
Renesa laughed heartily. She looked at the two people resting in the field, and couldn't help but ask, "Old man, there are a lot of spinning knives hidden in those balls in the field, what is the purpose of those big cylinders?"
"It's for the heroes who died in battle. When they die, their bodies hang on columns, slowly decay under the scorching sun, and become food for maggots and birds. In the arena, people don't remember the losers, they only worship the winning heroes!"
...... Gu Shiyu, you must win, otherwise......
Renesa bit her fingertips, not daring to think any further.
At halftime, the guards brought water and food to the players. Gu Shiyu and York stood up to replenish the lost water and energy.
Ressa's heart jumped to her throat! She put her hands to her mouth and shouted, "Gu Shiyu, don't!"
Gu Shiyu definitely didn't hear it. He put the large skin bag of water to his lips and grunted the cow drink, his Adam's apple rolling up and down.
"Oh my God!" Renesa slumped into her seat, covering her eyes tightly. She knew that Gu Shiyu would definitely hold her throat and collapse to the ground, bleeding from her seven orifices, her limbs twitching, and then stretching out her legs......
Damn Alkin, did you forget to tell him that you can't eat anything in the arena?
The audience erupted in cheers. Renesa opened his eyes and looked through his fingers to see dozens of ogres rushing into the arena with large sticks made of mammoth leg bones.
Gu Shiyu did not fall. He was the first to shoot an ogre with his bow, but it snapped off the handle and roared and rushed over. Gu Shiyu sent another arrow, but the ogre still didn't fall.
Oops, just rest for a while, relax a little, Gu Shiyu forgot where to fight the ogre is the most deadly! The ogre's magic skill is bloodthirsty, and he can give himself or his companions a double attack at the cost of reducing defense. Eric also said that in order to defeat the ogres quickly, it is best to fight them...... Where are they hitting?!
Before Gu Shiyu could think clearly, the ogre's big stick smashed over. He hurriedly jumped into the sand, and the big stick smashed into the sand, revealing a large crater and splashing countless gravel and dust.
Oh my God! The ogre's strength is so great, if it hits his head, won't it turn into a rotten watermelon?
York also began to swing his sword vigorously. Although he was a little tired, as soon as he entered the battle, his high fighting spirit immediately restored him to the strongest state, and he really deserved to be a natural warrior!
In the face of this group of powerful enemies, Gu Shiyu and York invariably chose to fight back-to-back, which required great courage to trust their opponents. Although they are not friends, out of mutual respect and respect, they have to give their rear wings to each other, and in fact they have no better choice.
Renesas' worries were unwarranted. The bankers won't choose to do it after halftime, and they're looking forward to a highlight-hearted second half.
Renesas's worries just gone, and new worries returned. She really couldn't figure it out, why didn't you attack with magic, were you all stupid?
Eric also shook his head secretly, this Gu Shiyu is simply an idiot, he has explained so much to him, why did he forget to attack their ribs? The ogre vigorously wielded a huge stick to sweep or smash down, even if it was to smash the air, under the action of huge inertia, they could not retract their momentum, and the gap under the ribs would inevitably be exposed.
What stupid, what stupidity! Not only Gu Shiyu, but even York is stupid! They are so tall, can you cut off their heads? Their arms are swinging like wheels, can you stab them in the heart? Can they survive with a sword push, into their ribs, straight into their livers?
This kind of monster with thick skin and flesh, the muscular chest and back are slashed with a few swords will not work at all, even if a sword slashes their arms, it is difficult to cut off, and the arms are as thick as human thighs.
The first is York's discovery of the ogre's Achilles' heel. Gu Shiyu immediately realized it, which made Eric feel at ease.
Gu Shiyu stabbed a sword into the ribs of an ogre, but was stuck out of the ribs, and before he could pull out the sword, another ogre's big stick had already smashed over, and Gu Shiyu had to use the lion king shield to stop on the top of his head.
The first stick smashed Gu Shiyu to his knees, and the second stick smashed the lion king shield in his hand almost out of his hand. Fortunately, with the help of the ogre's power, Gu Shiyu finally pulled out the long sword, and he didn't dare to stiffen it anymore with the third stick! He didn't care so much, he slipped through the ogre's crotch, held the sword in his backhand and pushed it back, and the long sword was inserted into the ogre's kidney.
Although this trick was indecent, it not only broke the siege, but also successfully killed an ogre.
As the ogre fell more and more, the two finally stopped fighting back-to-back and began to hunt down the fleeing monsters.
The hoarse shouts of the people did not stop from beginning to end, and many of them had even hoarse throats.
Gu Shiyu gasped and sat cross-legged to breathe. This is already the sixth level, and the next level should be ...... Stone elementals, right?
The Stone Elemental is an advanced form of the Earth Elemental. This monster with a whole body of stones knows no pain, no fatigue, and has inexhaustible strength all over its body. Both Eric and Boris have said that magic and bows will not do much to defeat the stone elementals, and the only way is to cut off their legs so that they cannot draw power from the earth continuously, so that they will gradually weaken until they lose their lives.
Gu Shiyu put away the lion king's shield. The Lion King Shield was smashed into several pits by the ogre's big stick, which made him very distressed. This was given to him by Eldred, and if he didn't care about it so much, Eldred would definitely be angry.
To hit the stone elementals, you have to cut off their feet, which is no different from cutting off two stone pillars. He had to put away his shield and choose to hold his sword with both hands, so that he could wield more power.
So in the next battle, Gu Shiyu took the lead in using the "Lying on the Ground" and specialized in the lower three paths of the stone element. York didn't understand at first, the angel's sword slashed the stone, bursting countless sparks, and his arm was shaken and hurt, but the stone element seemed to be fine, seeing that Gu Shiyu had successfully killed several stone elements, he just rolled around like him, rolling all over the sand.
At the end of the seventh battle, the two of them almost collapsed, their whole bodies were so sore, they couldn't even hold the swords in their hands. The cheers and applause in the audience gradually fell, and everyone was sweating in their hearts.
The bankers have chosen too many monsters, right? Now that they are in such a difficult situation, with three of the ten challenges left, will they survive to the end?
There wasn't much time left for them to rest, and even the hooded warriors didn't come out to clean up the corpses of these stone elementals. They leave rocks all over the ground, as this will be the ammunition that the Cyclops will use to attack in the next level.
Stones flew across the arena, and many of them smashed against metal columns, hemispherical objects, and fences. Fortunately, the fence was high and strong enough to prevent the stones from flying to the audience, but it also made the spectators sitting in the front row frightened.
The two dodged in the middle of the field, shooting with their bows and arrows. But the cyclops was also moving rapidly, picking up stones from under his feet and throwing them at him. The two had a hard time shooting the cyclops' one-eyed, and the arrows were shot at the cyclops, who were stronger than the ogre, almost tickling them.
Oh my God, an arrow is more than two feet long, and when you shoot an arrow with all your might, it can barely sink into the cyclops' body, how thick muscles do they have to be?!
Fortunately, the stone elemental corpses on the field were scattered and not concentrated around the cyclops. Otherwise, more than 20 cyclops threw more than 20 stones at the same time, I am afraid that Gu Shiyu and York will be more flexible, and they will be able to hide from the first day of junior high school, but they will not be able to avoid fifteen, and they will eventually be smashed into meatloaf.
The only way to deal with long-range attack troops is to break into their side for hand-to-hand combat, but this monster is also strong enough for short-range combat, and when it smashes down with both fists, it is afraid that it will smash them into the ground like nails.
Damn, how can this be played?
Gu Shiyu was very annoyed. He suddenly remembered some martial arts movies and fantasy films he had watched, people can fly, how good it would be, do you still need to run around on the ground? A sword is swung, or both hands draw a few circles, and then with a wave of the halberd fingers, the heavens and the earth change color, the sun and the moon are dull, and a series of explosions are enough to ******* thousands of kilograms of explosives, and everything is wiped out.
I shouldn't have traveled into this damn world where the world is not like the world, and myths are not like myths!
York has started to use magic attacks non-stop! his grandma's magic reserves, his grandma's ultimate duel, and stay alive first!
But York didn't dare to use a crowd magic attack. Powerful crowd attack magic kills a few Cyclops, but it also pulls hatred, causing all Cyclops to attack him alone. When he fought the ogre, he knew it very well!
Therefore, now he is the same as Gu Shiyu, so he runs and uses lightning to hit the cyclops one by one, the only difference is that Gu Shiyu threw away the Phantom Divine Bow, but summoned the tears of the gods flowing in the blood, and shot with his own energy and blood!
The only bow and arrow in the world that can inflict heavy damage on the cyclops is the Tears of the Gods!
The eighth battle was several times more thrilling than the sixth! The arena with 80,000 spectators was silent, and anyone's heart was in their throats!
When the last cyclops fell, the audience erupted in a landslide and tsunami of cheers.
Oh my God, baby's little heart is just not going to work. Renesa patted her chest, gasping for tears, still palpitating.
The eighth level has passed...... Two more levels!
The master of ceremonies on the VIP seat lost no time in instigating: "Oh my God, such a battle is simply beyond human power! Who else has such a super ability except the gods in the sky?! Let's give flowers and applause to the two god-like heroes!"
The applause was earth-shattering, and it woke the two of them up from their fainting. York's fainting was due to the fact that he had cast almost one-third of his magic reserves, and Gu Shiyu's fainting was due to the fact that he had shot nearly thirty spell arrows that condensed his blood! This feeling he had encountered once, and that was when he stood on a huge banyan tree during Dia's breakout and attacked the terrifying knight at his feet with the tears of the gods.
But that feeling can't be compared to now, standing on a tree, he doesn't need to think about the possible attack, but standing on the ground, he can die at any time, all the senses of the whole body must be highly concentrated, so when the battle is over, he immediately sits on the ground to rest, and the grandstanding dance is avoided!
In his bosom were three pills given to him by the Prophet. The Prophet had told him that when he was severely overdrawn, he might as well take a pill. So when he pretended to wipe the blood from his mouth, he secretly stuffed a pill into his mouth.
York was also taking drugs. But he didn't swallow one, but a lot.
Do you take the pills for dinner? Gu Shiyu couldn't help but be happy, it seems that your doctor is much worse than mine.
None of the 80,000 spectators could sit still, and everyone stood up and clapped rhythmically!
"Let's look forward to the next challenge and see which of the two of them has the last laugh!"
The ninth level is the White Werewolf.
Erik's brow tightened. Although he estimated that the bankers might use the White Werewolf, he definitely didn't expect them to use so much.
The White Werewolf is a hero who mutates after being bitten by a werewolf. The Tower of Light, controlled by Eric, can only hold noble heroes of high status, while all civilian heroes who commit crimes are kept in ordinary prisons.
Many of these people are not guilty of capital crimes. Some of them robbed because of poverty, some were just drunk and gathered to fight, and many were ......
There are also many because they slept with other people's wives, they just think that other people's wives are better than their own wives, is this damned?
No one knows who is the initiator of such a lack of morality. Maybe it's King David, who defeated the giant Goliath with stones, maybe it's the handsome Trojan prince Paris, or maybe it's the traitorous male Cao Cao, who likes to steal other people's wives.
The palace battles throughout the ages, in addition to the conspiracy and betrayal, the rest is an unsightly **. Even the incomparably powerful King of Myssi, Afla-Memnon, and the King of Sparta, Menelaus, were all cuckolded.
If you want to say that you deserve to die if you commit such a crime, there may be too many people in the world who deserve to die, and they can't be shut down in hell...... Of course, Eric probably deserves to die too.
This is the difference between a commoner and an aristocracy. The aristocratic wife was slept with by someone more powerful than herself, so she had to swallow her anger and go home to beat her wife. And if a commoner slept with a nobleman's wife, he would undoubtedly be punished very severely.
But...... Alas, you pathetic and poor nobles, do you only care about yourself outside and hunting flowers and grass, and do you do your homework?
All in all, everyone has to take care of their inner courtyard and do the necessary homework, otherwise there is a risk that the inner courtyard will catch fire.
How the battle in the arena ended, Eric didn't know. All he knew was that he had another crime of the bankers in his hands. No one can pronounce a death sentence without the consent of the Imperial Council!
The tenth level is a dozen or so giant Beamon Behemoths and Hydras. The huge arena was silent, and all the spectators watched in horror as the two heroes stumbled in the arena fought bloodily. It wasn't until the last giant beast crashed down that it erupted in earth-shattering applause!
"Can you still fight?" Gu Shiyu collapsed on the ground, leaning his head against the railing, looking at the limping York slowly approaching.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely stand until you fall. York coughed and vomited a mouthful of blood, resting against the railing.
One of the guards stepped forward and placed a leather bag of water at their feet. Gu Shiyu didn't dare to drink more, and during the break in the first half, he felt that he had drunk a little too much, causing gastrointestinal discomfort. After strenuous exercise, the salt in the body will be excreted with a large amount of sweat, although you need to replenish some water, but it must not be excessive, otherwise it will cause a decrease in blood osmotic pressure, cause a lot of discomfort, and even muscle spasms. As a sports student, he knows this very well. But York poured water into his stomach and poured the rest of the water on his head.
Gu Shiyu looked at this ignorant person in surprise. Isn't this the rhythm of looking for death? After strenuous exercise, the skin and blood vessels of the whole body will expand, and your shower, the coolness is indeed cool, but it will immediately cause violent contractions, and the body function will decline.
Gu Shiyu didn't want to explain, and he didn't have much energy to explain. In the Lost Lands, Renesa cuts the blood of unicorns to heal people, and Gu Shiyu says that proper bloodletting is beneficial, which provokes the Guardian Crane to be furious and almost kills them both.
Alas, the ignorant are pathetic.
Some of the guards ran out and lit thousands of torches on the walls of the arena to drive away the darkness that was approaching.
At the VIP table, Eric whispered to several white-robed shamans sitting next to him, and then waved to the commander of the Praetorian Guard, asking him to immediately lead his troops to block all the gates and ports of the Holy Light Island, and prevent the bankers from fleeing with the money.
According to the latest intelligence, the bets placed on Gu Shiyu, together with the previous ones, have exceeded 10 million gold coins, and if Gu Shiyu wins, the bankers will have to pay at least 30 million gold coins, and many small bankers will go bankrupt immediately!
The audience erupted in rhythmic applause. Gu Shiyu and York were ready and walked into the field.
The master of ceremonies stood in front of the VIP seat and raised his hands towards the sky.
"Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, we have finally arrived at this great moment! York and Gu Shiyu are worthy candidates for the Chosen One, and they have completed the ten rounds of the challenge together. Oh my God, ten rounds of the Fierce Challenge! They presented us with an unprecedented feast of blood, now, let them fight for themselves! Whoever stands last is the one who deserves to be the one who deserves to be the one who chooses ~~~~~!"
The crowd is boiling again!
More than a dozen guards carried crockpots in their hands, dumping crude oil from the ground as they ran, and forming a circle with a radius of several feet around the two of them.
"Those who stay in the circle have a chance to win, but they can also die because of it, and those who leave the circle can save their lives will lose their victory. Now, let's look forward to witnessing that historic moment!"
One of the guards lit the oil with a torch in his hand, and a fire several feet high immediately rose in the arena!
The fire was accompanied by earth-shattering shouts! The people stood up and clapped their hands vigorously.
"It's not fair!" cried Ressa, but her voice was as small and insignificant as a drop of water in the sea, or a grain of sand in the desert.
This is really unfair, fighting in such a small space, it is difficult to have the opportunity to shoot with a bow and arrow, because no matter what, you can't get rid of the enemy behind you. Leaving the circle means the end of the game.
But Gu Shiyu's only chance to win is the powerful Tears of the Heavenly Gods!
Nothing is like this!Eric, too, was taken aback, it must have been the bankers who had bribed the arena guards to temporarily change the rules of the finals.
Now we can only pray to the gods and bless Gu Shiyu to win, otherwise all the plans that have been prepared for months will come to an abrupt end and be abandoned halfway!
The magical battle between the two didn't last long. York used up almost all of his magic energy in the final three levels of the challenge, but Gu Shiyu kept some of his precious magic energy at the cost of the Blood Arrow.
After the battle of magic, the two were caught in a grueling hand-to-hand fight, with blood and sweat raining down everywhere.
From time to time, the two of them stood on the ground, half-kneeling on the yellow sand, gasping like oxen, and then leaping up, ping-pong slashing a few swords, and then half-kneeling and panting.
"Come on Gu Shiyu!Meet my last sword!" York let out a long roar, and the angel's sword struck with the sound of wind and thunder!
Gu Shiyu gritted his teeth, his tongue bloomed with spring thunder, and he also burst out with a loud shout, and the sword of the fire god greeted him with a large string of burning flames!
A large ball of flame erupted as the two swords intersected, and then a dazzling white light erupted in all directions!
Time and space were almost completely gone in that instant! There was only white light everywhere, nothing else, no sound in the ears, only the roar of the eardrums.
A prophet's heart is like a mirror. He could not see, but he could hear.
It was a powerful collision between the sword of angels and the sword of the god of fire. He didn't dare to imagine what would happen to the world if the Angel Alliance, the Doomsday Blade, and the Ice Sword collided?!
Will this world be destroyed by this?
"Rain in the valley, rain in the valley ......"
The voice seemed familiar. Gu Shiyu slowly opened his eyes, and there was a dazzling white light in front of him, and he could only distinguish a vague figure in front of him.
"Am I dead?" Gu Shiyu said in a low voice.
"You're not dead, but you've got to get up!"
"I ...... I couldn't stand up, I felt like the bones were falling apart all over my body!Who are you? Catherine?"
"I'm glad I feel sorry for her that you can still remember Catherine at this time. I am Gaia, Mother Earth. ”
"Oh my God, please forgive me for lying in front of you like this, it's really disrespectful to you......" Gu Shiyu struggled and wanted to get up.
Gaia walked over softly and picked up Gu Shiyu. There is a breath of freshness from nature in her body. Gu Shiyu looked at her gratefully, realizing that she was so beautiful and serene.
"Thank you, I didn't expect York to be so powerful that I almost killed him!"
"Of course, he is also the Chosen One! The two Chosen Ones are in a decisive battle, and the gods are only silently watching from one side, not taking sides, so your duel is fair. ”
"What! He's the Chosen One?"
"Yes, the gods have chosen seven chosen ones, and you will be their leader and lead them to drive out the darkness. ”
"I will!"
"Then I'm leaving, don't let evil take over your heart, that will disappoint us!"
Gaia, the mother of the earth, came quietly and went quietly, without taking a speck of dust with her.
A deafening cheer suddenly sounded in his ears! Gu Shiyu found himself standing in the center of the arena, greeting the applause and cheers of the crowd!
He staggered and waved to the tens of thousands of spectators in the stands.
Countless petals fall from the sky, covering the arena with a sea of flowers.
York was still lying on the yellow sand, twitching, and in the cheers, he finally woke up.
The first thing that caught his eye was Gu Shiyu's concerned face. York muttered, "I'm defeated!"
"You are not defeated, you and I persevered to the end together!" Gu Shiyu stretched out his arm: "Come on, let's accept the cheers of victory together!"
(This is the end of the first volume, and tomorrow the second volume will open an even more magnificent chapter!)
