Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Colosseum

"The Colosseum was built 3,000 years ago by the first Emperor Roland to celebrate the founding of the empire, requisitioning 500,000 craftsmen, slaves and convicts over a period of eight years. www.biquge.info In the three thousand years since this great building was located on the earth, millions of soul beasts and gladiators of all races have left their last drop of blood here. ”

The Colosseum's perimeter is crowded with people, and in a nondescript procession, a good-looking guide explains the history of the Colosseum to the visitors behind him.

"But today you don't want to see the shocking scene of the war between man and beast, because the Colosseum has been requisitioned by the Imperial Military Department, and in the three days starting today, the Colosseum will become a testing ground for the major forces of the empire to select fresh blood, the fattest aunt! Don't leave the team without permission! Where did you just talk about? Oh, the Colosseum was built three thousand years ago and was the first emperor of Roland......

"Oh, why are there so many people!" Barbale squeezed to the periphery of the Colosseum with great difficulty, and the tour guide immediately shouted softly: "That little kid who looks a little anxious, hurry back to the team, or the villain will come to arrest you." ”

"What do you say about me!?" Barbale glared and was about to get angry, when someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "I'm not mistaken, it's really gold!"

In this exclamation, the people nearby looked for their voices, only to see an aunt squatting on the ground, holding a dazzling gold coin in both hands, and around her, fragments of golden light could be faintly seen spilling on the ground.

"Look, everyone! Empress Isabel has appeared!" shouted the guide, pointing to the entrance of an archway, and when the eyes were diverted from him, he hurried towards the place where the aunt was, and in three or two strokes he pocketed all the gold coins on the ground.

The people nearby did not see the huge honor guard of the imperial ruler, and they were puzzled, and some people remembered that there were gold coins on the ground, and they wanted to grab one or two, but found that there was not even a single chicken feather on the ground......

"What's so beautiful on the ground, is there still gold coins to pick up?" The tour guide urged the tourists to hurry up so as not to block the way of future generations.

At this moment, a sound of metal striking suddenly fell from the sky, and at the same time, a piece of golden light fell to the ground, and people saw the gold coins rolling all over the ground, and their eyes were immediately red, and they rushed together, fighting for red faces.

"Barbale, we should have used this method of opening the way sooner. Aslan held Zoya and Aldwin in his left and right hands, the little phoenix stood on his shoulder, and Harpy tugged at the corner of his coat, and the group rushed out of the makeshift passage.

"Tuhao, the registration point is on the east side of the entrance, I want to go to the special district to meet my colleagues, so I will temporarily separate from you here. Barbale teased and left the group.

............

After spending 40 gold coins to buy four VIP seats, Aslan and his party walked into the pass of the Colosseum, and were greeted by huge stone pillars that carved the symbols of the empire's important battles for thousands of years.

The center of the Colosseum is large enough to accommodate 50,000 people at a time, and there are many regional rings around it, in addition to the central ring made of diamond.

Some of the rings were split in two by black oil ravines, some were crisscrossed by canals, and some were surrounded by layers of sharp spears, and the audience could already imagine the gladiators standing in the midst of fire, islands, and spears, raising their weapons and fighting with ferocious soul beasts.

Tens of thousands of stone seats form a gallery that encloses the vast center of the arena, and these auditoriums are stacked on top of each other in an inverted cone arrangement, and the Colosseum is already full of people who are constantly pouring in.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auditorium is divided into four areas, the east is the general area, the south is the VIP area, the west is the special area, and the north is the waiting area for the selection of students. ”

Under the guidance of an officer, the spectators who had verified the tickets gradually divided into four streams, and Aslan and his party merged into the densest crowd, and their purpose was to the ordinary area to the east.

"Dear Sir, your direction should be in the VIP area to the south. A waiter looked at the VIP area ticket that Aslan was holding in his hand, and stepped forward to beg for it with a smear of oil on the soles of his feet.

"I know that, but I'm going to go to the registration point first. Aslan responded.

"Oh, you're still a selection student. The sleek waiter flattered and said, "A promising young man like you will definitely be able to become a dazzling new star today, and it is really an honor to be able to lead you to the registration point." ”

Aslan originally wanted to get rid of this posted-up sycophant, but then he thought about it, the scale of this Colosseum is so large, it is also a good thing to have someone familiar with the environment to lead the way.

In this way, under the leadership of the waiter, Aslan and his party arrived at the registration point smoothly, and when he saw the overcrowded registration point, he realized that the organizer still made some sense to place the registration point in the ordinary area on the east side.

A two-storey building was surrounded by a variety of people, including the selection students from poor areas and their elders who wanted their sons to become dragons, as well as arrogant and domineering nobles with a group of guards to occupy the land.

Of course, there are many of them who are dressed ordinarily like Aslan, but the aura emanating from their bodies is not to be underestimated.

"Emerson, from the heart of the sea. ”

A young man appeared in front of the registrar holding another girl's hand.

"Well, the registration fee is ten gold coins per person. ”

Listening to the indifferent voice of the registrar, Emerson glanced at his crumpled clothes, shook his head helplessly, and then looked at the girl and said: "Murphy, your talent is better than that of my brother, I will definitely get a scholarship, I want you to also study in the college, at that time you can leave that poor country and explore a vast world of your own." ”

Murphy showed a look of pity, raised his palm, gently stroked Emerson's face, and persuaded: "Brother, don't squeeze yourself for me, I have never held a grudge against my father for using the family's savings to pay for your tuition." ”

"It's these weeping poor ghosts again. The registrar muttered, and the words entered Emerson's ears, causing his brow to furrow, but Murphy grabbed his arm at the right time, and his anger died down in an instant.

"Don't waste Miss Ben's time with your tears, those who can't even pay the registration fee should get out early!"

A cheer and a burst of fragrance hit everyone's ears and noses almost at the same time, only to see a young girl walking up with a sultry gait, she was wearing a pink light veil with a dark fragrance, and her slightly powdered face was as fragrant and beautiful as the witch Luoshen.

Murphy's eyes couldn't help but darken as she twisted her belt and stepped forward, and although she also had a clear appearance, her brilliance was suddenly overshadowed by the scorching lady of heaven in front of her.

"Special Case, please sign up for my Miss Lucy first. A middle-aged woman in a black leather coat stepped on the sky and walked with bewitching steps, walked up to the registrar and said in a tone that was almost commanding.

"It's Miss Lucy!" the pot-bellied registrar patted his head, remembering whose noble descendant the other party was, and his fat face smiled even more earnestly at this moment, almost revealing the whole socket. "It's an honor to serve you, this is the first class seat in the waiting area, the number of the number plate is equivalent to your entry number, please say hello to Ling Zun on my behalf. ”

"Hmph, I don't have the time to remember a little person like you, Corolla, let's go. Lucy glanced at the seat card in the registrar's hand, and the leather-clad woman known as Corolla knew that the pampered daughter did not want to defile her fingers, so she reluctantly squeezed out a smile and took the seat card from the registrar's hand.

As Lucy passed by Aslan's group, she glanced at the Harpy in disgust, and raised her palm to cover her mouth and nose, as if she would be poisoned by the smell of the Harpy.

The little bunny lowered his head in inferiority, and Alderwin stepped forward and gently stroked his forehead, at this time Lucy's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, apparently she also realized that she was not the only one who had the appearance of a country and a city, so a touch of jealousy replaced the surprise in her eyes.

"Corolla, don't let these people waste our precious time. Lucy noticed that Aldwin's dress was unpretentious, and found some sense of superiority.
