Chapter II: Children in Trouble
"Hello, I heard this is the arena registry?" Wood had only been in the city for two days, and had made two trips to the registry office alone. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Of course, he also understands, because this is someone else's territory, even if the two sides are friendly, but he is still afraid that someone who is not long-sighted will make trouble.
Wood's tavern has been open for a few years, and it's not like I've met this kind of person.
An old man in a gray robe glanced at the small round shield on his and his companion's chest, and directly took out another badge, which was a small silver-white cross sword.
"On the surface of the round shield, you are friends of this city, and taking the silver sword in my hand means that you, as the captain, have the qualifications to open the arena. The gray-robed old man looked up and met Wood's eyes.
"Adventurers can only open the arena once a month, and except for the 99th floor before the final level, the others can only be saved in multiples of ten. ”
Wood nodded, and it was the same as the previous two phases.
"The creatures that appear in the arena are all random, and the corresponding enemies will appear according to the strength of your team. There may also be a lot of sadistic situations. ”
The gray-robed old man paused suddenly, and the atmosphere became solemn.
"But remember, once the arena is opened, whatever happens will only end when one side has completely fallen!"
The old man swept over the group of adventurers in front of him and found that there was no trace of timidity in the eyes of this group of people, and there was even a trace of war intent burning.
There had just been a tragedy that killed several adventurers, but the group seemed to be used to it.
Well, he's used to it, too, because he's seen too many young people like that.
Perhaps, this is the adventurer, a cold-blooded brave man who is accustomed to death and can continue to walk on the corpses of his companions.
The old man understood that even death could not stop this group of people, and he didn't ask if he was mentally prepared.
"Are you sure the name of the team is the one on the round shield?" the old man didn't quite understand what the word meant, he had never seen such a special name in hundreds of years.
Wood stood at the front of the line, suddenly feeling a few angry glances from behind, and the two newcomers obviously had a problem with the name.
"Yes, that's it. Wood didn't feel embarrassed, but smiled. He really felt that the name was a good fit for their team.
The old man engraved his name on the crosssword and handed it to Wood, while saying, "There are adventurers in the arena these days. ”
Wood smiled and nodded, although they were in a hurry, it was good to look at the experience of the seniors in the past few days, and to know more about the situation here.
The old man hesitated, he liked this man's smile very much, it was very infectious.
"No one in five days, the weather was pretty good that day, do you want to book?"
Wood thought about it for a moment, and what the little partner meant was that he was in charge.
"Yes, then I'll bother you. "He still respects the old man very much, and the old man in front of him is not weak.
The old man didn't reply, just lowered his head and began to write something, and Wood and they also understood, and left the registration office with a smile.
......
For the next few days, Wood and the others went to the arena every day to watch the fights, and they habitually took out a small notebook to record the types of enemies that appeared.
There's also a special kind of place in the arena where there are heads-up and group battles that appear randomly.
Time passed quickly, and on this day, Wood got up early, exercised, and had breakfast with his companions.
The atmosphere of today's breakfast is a little solemn, although everyone has watched countless fights in the past few days and learned more, but the feeling of being on stage by yourself is another matter.
Wood walked out of the inn and looked up with a smile that looked warm in the sun.
"That old man was right, the weather was exceptionally good today. ”
Although it feels a little cold, she also likes the warm sunshine: "Luck has always been on our side. ”
Wood and Rebecca looked at each other slightly, both understanding each other's moods, and didn't need to say much.
Then he turned his head and looked at the white-robed priest: "Nervous, aren't you?"
Elizabeth took off her robe and hat, and the sun shone on her face with a sense of holiness.
"That's it, I'm not so attached to life and death anymore. She looked at Wood meaningfully.
Wood understood what this meant, and he knew that the woman had tried to kill herself countless times, all of which had been stopped by the orders he had given in the temple.
"You may not like me, but you will. Wood looked at the very holy woman, and he really liked the face.
Elizabeth was so absorbed in the breath of the sun that she didn't seem to hear it.
But Wood knew she heard it, so he just smiled, and then looked at the other newcomer behind him.
"Ake, relax. "Wood still treats this Shota like a child.
Ake gave the captain a blank look, then put on his hat and looked cold.
Yesterday Klaus and Maika asked him to go to the night market with him, but he refused on the grounds that he was sick with the old virgin and the humanoid piledriver.
Yes, Klaus exploded again, and if Wood hadn't stopped it in time, it would probably be another big war, the kind that could tear down the inn and put them on the city's blacklist.
Walking into the arena, there were already many spectators waiting early, and they all heard that a new team of adventurers was coming today.
Wood: They stood in the middle of the arena, like the blood-stained adventurers of the previous days, and a stout man with white hair but who looked like he was in good spirits stood beside Wood.
"Everyone, today we have a new warrior in the arena. The voice of the stout man echoed throughout the arena, and he was introducing the newcomer.
Then Wood stepped forward with a smile on his face, the shield and silver sword badge glittering in the sunlight.
"They are the young generation of adventurers! They are the supernovas of hope! They are the ......"
The stout man paused suddenly, he first held back a laugh with all his might, he couldn't believe it when he first knew the name, and then rolled on the ground and laughed, there are many newcomers here, but there are few such funny ones.
"Let's welcome ......" a smile curled into the corner of the man's mouth, knowing that no matter how the team ended, the name would remain in the history of the city.
"Problem Kids Squad!" he said the name in a hilarious, loud voice.
At the same time, the arena, which had been a bit noisy, suddenly became very quiet, and everyone was a little caught off guard by the name, and their minds had not yet turned.
"Hahahaha......" Suddenly one person laughed, and then a group of people ...... In the end, the whole arena was filled with laughter.
Wood didn't panic and continued to smile.
Then, as if they were tired of laughing, they began to praise the name.
When something interesting came out or something like something optimistic about them, Wood smiled and took it without modesty, and then pressed his hands down to silence the audience.
Out of respect for the warriors, the audience lost their voices and straightened their backs, knowing that the adventurer had something to say.
Wood cleared his throat and continued, "We, like all adventurers, have crossed countless bones and gone through countless trials to get to this city. ”
His voice reached the ears of everyone present: "Actually, we were very nervous before we came here, because our seniors were a little irresponsible and always liked to spread false news to fool us. ”
When the audience heard these words, they all laughed more or less, and some even laughed again.
"But now I've fallen in love with the city. Wood looked around at the crowd with sincerity in his eyes.
"I've only been here for a few days, but I feel good here. It's a paradise in the dungeon. ”
He paused slightly: "I have also watched the fighting in the arena in the past few days, and the enthusiasm of everyone. ”
The voice grew louder and louder: "Our name is very special, and we may leave a mark on this city, but I promise you here!"
With this flame burning in his eyes, he raised his fist with his hand: "We will use our strength and achievements to make the city remember us!
Wood's ambitious remarks ignited the atmosphere, and McCar and Klaus smiled at each other and began to applaud.
The applause kept ringing, and many people clapped their palms red, because they liked such rampant and interesting newcomers.
Wood opened his arms in the cheers, looking like he was enjoying it.
After a long time, the applause finally stopped, and Wood continued to spread his arms.
"Next, please watch our performance! Cheer for the troubled children!"
After saying this, Wood directly took off the silver sword badge on his chest and threw it into the hands of the strong man.
With a smile on his face, the man walked into the shadows with his badge, he was going to open the arena for a trial.
A flame burned in the sky, and finally it turned into a number 1, and everyone in the team drew their weapons.
Wood felt the renewed heat and went into stealth with a high fighting spirit, holding a brand new dagger in his hand.
Come on, who's going to be the first blood of this new partner?
With green claws, a black body, and a fiery red head, there are stitches on it, this is a combined monster.
The monster saw the adventurers, without saying a word, conjured a pair of wings in its body, and flew towards Klaus and Elizabeth, who were in the back row.
Rebecca's giant shield shone brightly, and the monster was visibly frightened, flying slightly higher to bypass the shield.
Suddenly, Ark, who had already taken off his robe and was wearing a straitjacket, appeared behind the monster, his hands exuding a cold aura slightly touching the monster's wings.
The wings were instantly frozen, and the monster fell from the sky.
The light of the Libeka shield was even greater, illuminating the entire arena, and the monster fell helplessly into the light.
The monster let out a terrifying and painful cry, and its body began to smoke, but it did not lose its desire to live, and directly cut off its frozen wings with its claws, and its body, which was no longer heavy, finally got rid of the holy light.
No sooner had it stood still, and before it could breathe a sigh of relief, a shadow suddenly appeared on the ground and bound his legs.
A bad premonition appeared, but it was too late, and dark green blood spurted out in the sun.
The originally prosaic dagger was now terrifying, piercing the monster's neck from behind.
The silver-haired assassin slowly pulled the dagger back, and the abrupt shadow on the ground disappeared, and the monster slowly fell to the ground.
The audience began to cheer because the group of problem children looked strong!
That 1 in the sky disappeared, and then the countdown began, 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, enemies on the second floor will enter.
Wood accepted the cheers in a chauff and continued his stealth.
......
Night began to fall, and an ice arrow plunged into the giant's body, and Ark retreated.
Instead of trying to get the giant's fatality, Wood plunged the dagger into the giant's leg, instilled magic and detonated, causing the giant to lose its balance and fall to the ground with the sound of the explosion.
The giant fell to the ground and pulled out the ice arrow stuck in its body with difficulty, its body already eroded by the cold breath.
Suddenly, lightning fell from the dim sky and smashed into the incapacitated giant.
The giant wailed in the lightning, no less than the belated thunder, and fought the terrible thunder with his flesh.
But it was still not enough, and as time passed, the two terrifying voices slowly disappeared, and the sweaty Klaus also ended the spell.
This time the audience did not cheer as usual, because the Beast Giant Clan was also their friend, but unfortunately, fate chose him to come to the arena.
Wood felt the atmosphere around him, and learned how they mourned for the giant lying on the ground, though he felt strange.
The originally lively atmosphere became quiet at this time.
But this silence did not last long, and the 9 in the sky disappeared and entered the timer again, this time for 30 minutes.
Because it's different from the previous one, the next is the boss who guards the tenth floor!
The corpses of the giants were also refreshed, along with the blood and battle marks on the ground.
Wood walked over to Klaus, who had to do more than he had ever done as captain.
"Are you alright?" Wood looked at Klaus, panting.
Klaus smiled to reassure his companions, and Elizabeth bathed Klaus with a holy glow in her hands.
This is one of the priest's skills, magic rebirth, it is simply a magic skill for the master, and I can't wait to steal one myself.
However, even if the magic is reborn, the mental exhaustion of casting spells is still there, and Klaus drinks a bottle of potion to keep it in shape, and the real battle will be the end.
Wood confirmed that Klaus was okay and looked at Elizabeth with some appreciation, he felt that it was the right decision to bring this priest with him.
Elizabeth's beautiful face was sweating, and her white robe was no longer so clean during the battle.
She is still a little uncomfortable with this intensity, and it is not at the same level as the first stage at the beginning.
Wood handed over the tissue, he knew that women hate sweat.
Elizabeth hesitated, but took the tissue.
"Well done. Wood smiled and complimented, "Without you, we would have had enough time in the third stage." ”
Elizabeth still had an indifferent face, and after wiping her sweat, she threw away the tissue, took out a bottle of water and sat on the ground.
Wood was not annoyed by the snub, but sat on the ground happily.
Elizabeth didn't care, and continued to do her own thing, treating her master as air.
Wood began to close his eyes and prepare for the next big battle.
At the end of the 30 minutes, the audience stood up, and everyone knew that this was going to be a fierce one.
A blood-red greatsword, more than two meters tall, black rock-like skin, and a face with only one eye.
Wood opened his eyes and stood up, searching for information about the monster in front of him.
Dark Warrior (a powerful swordsman who is corrupted by demonic aura and falls into the abyss).
Skill:?
Wood licked his lips and went straight into stealth.
Rebecca's shield was still at the forefront, and Klaus was reloading spells.
The Sword Demon was not afraid of this giant shield of holy light like other creatures with demonic aura, but instead swung his sword directly at Libaika.
Libeka gritted her teeth, she felt a tremendous amount of power, and the demonic aura of this sword demon was completely unafraid of the erosion of the holy light.
Wood in the shadows frowned, he knew what was going on, he had confronted the Divine Attribute head-on before.
The Sword Demon kept waving the blood-red greatsword in his hand, and Ark approached at high speed on the other side, trying to directly control the enemy with the ice.
An ice sword appeared in Ark's hand and stabbed directly into the sword demon's back.
"Ao!" the sword demon let out a beast-like roar, stepped on the giant shield of holy light to borrow strength, and then slashed at Ark in the air.
Ark erected a wall of ice in front of him and ran straight away.
It's not that he doesn't have melee abilities, but he understands that it's too unwise to fight this sword demon head-on.
The sword demon shattered the ice wall with a single sword, and then, with a roar of rage, wings grew out of his back and flew quickly towards Ark, who was fleeing.
The speed was so fast that even if Ake ran as hard as he could, he was still about to catch up.
"Over here!" Maika stood to Ack's left for some time.
Ake spun around and ran towards Maika without hesitation.
The Sword Demon continued to accelerate, and the giant sword had already reached Ake's back, and then the Sword Demon slashed down with a hideous face.
It's going to kill its first enemy!
Suddenly, Ake stopped, and the greatsword slashed into his body.
"Collapse!" Ake's body suddenly exploded, and countless disgusting insects exploded and splashed onto the sword demon's body.
The Sword Demon looked back and found that Ake had run back to his companion, and Maika, who was originally in front of him, was still in place, but he was sweating profusely, obviously this combination of witchcraft and illusion made him very tired.
The sword demon's body was torn by insects, and it understood that it couldn't go on like this, and black blood spurted out of its mouth.
When the blood entered the air, it began to burn, and finally turned into black flames that filled his body.
The insect was burned out in a few moments, and at this point, several walls of light began to surround it.
The Sword Demon smiled hideously, and the giant sword slashed towards the wall of holy light.
The wall of light had no ability to resist, and shattered directly, and at the same time, a dagger stabbed into the abdomen of the sword demon.
Then, the magic is instilled, detonated, and Wood's specialty is good.
"Ao!" the sword demon looked pained and reflexively slashed at the sneak attacker, but a ball of light flew over, forcing him to block the attack with his sword first.
Wood took advantage of this gap to retreat, looking at his companion with appreciative eyes, and at this time Elizabeth was panting and hurriedly drinking a bottle of potion, she was really tired.
The Sword Demon tried to repair his body, but the adventurers didn't give it a chance, and the magical light kept smashing at it.
It can only rely on its ability to fly and keep escaping.
The two sides continued to consume like this, and Wood and they were not panicking at all, because the wound in the sword demon's abdomen was constantly deteriorating, and his combat power was getting weaker and weaker.
"Begin, it's time to judge demons with the Light. The corners of Wood's mouth curled slightly.
Rebecca closed her eyes, and a holy light appeared out of nowhere in the night, bathed in the holy light like a holy woman, and finally her hair was scattered, and a gorgeous angel appeared in the arena.
The angel took the sword and shield, flapped his wings and rushed directly to the demon who was tired under the starry sky!
