Chapter 35: Gladiators

If there is a right option, eliminate all impossible answers, and the rest is true, even if it is unbelievable. - Cheng Mo

At half past five in the morning of this day, Cheng Mo was not woken up by the alarm clock, but after he chose to leave the carrier, an aperture lit by the Ouroboros ring enveloped him, and then there was an electronic clock-like countdown in the aperture that jumped from sixty seconds to zero seconds, and at the moment of zero seconds, Cheng Mo opened his eyes on the bed and bounced up.

Cheng Mo looked at the faint morning light outside the window, took a deep breath, at this time his perception of the outside world had all returned to normal levels, he raised his left hand, looked at the watch on his wrist, and still felt magical like an illusion.

He pressed the knob on his watch, and immediately popped up to select the teleportation location, the remaining number of activations of the day was 0, the remaining time was 5 minutes, and then the three-dimensional map spread out in front of his eyes.

After Cheng Mo's research last night, this usage time and number of activations are the same as the "game anti-addiction system", but after registering at the Pantheon, this problem should be solved.

Cheng Mo pulled out the knob again, and the human body formed by the green light point kept rotating in the air, and a series of data of the carrier was displayed on the left side of the body, except for the physical strength value consumed a little, everything else was as usual.

Although the human sky made up of green points of light was slowly rotating, the username "Dawn Star LV0" above his head remained unmoved.

Cheng Mo turned off his watch, got up and slowly got dressed, washed his face and brushed his teeth, he had never had such an exciting and enthusiastic experience in his life, especially after he experienced the taste of running for the first time yesterday, he had a kind of excitement that he had finally become a complete person.

He didn't know how other people felt when they ran, but Cheng Mo experienced an extreme feeling of soul burning when he ran with the carrier.

It took him only 25 minutes to run from home to school, and when he got to school, he didn't think that number was anything remarkable.

But when he searched for the world record of long-distance running, he found out how terrible this number was, the world record for the 10-kilometer marathon was 26 minutes and 20 seconds, and it was 7.1 kilometers from his home to school, although the average calculation was not far from the world record, but the problem was that he didn't have to do his best at all, and he didn't even feel fatigue after running 7.1 kilometers, and his body didn't even sweat.

And he knew he could be faster.

The key is that he can clearly feel the state of each of his muscles, the strength of his legs, the stride distance, the vertical amplitude, and even the touch time when he runs.

Then he ran back from the school again, this time he sped up a little, it only took 20 minutes, and when he got home, he pointed out the body information, but it was only 427 points of stamina that consumed 3 points.

When he got home, he did a lot of experiments, such as eating, such as grabbing the wardrobe to do pull-ups, such as trying to jump high to touch the roof, he even used a needle to try to prick his fingertips, the first few times there was no blood, finally a little blood was stabbed, and soon the wound disappeared, this healing ability is simply terrible.

Since then, he has been researching forums for information on the "Carrier", "The Chosen One", and "Gladiator" (Note 1.....

Cheng Mo ate cereal, eggs, milk and carried his schoolbag to school, and when he went to 202, his body did not feel sleepy at all, he could obviously feel that he was full of energy, but the kind of control provided by this body could not be compared with the carrier at all.

If your body is a Chery QQ with a problem with the engine, then the carrier is Lamborghini LP700-4, and the gap is so obvious.

But there is no way to become silent, he has to go to school with this weak body, which is unavoidable, because his own body is the source of everything.

He had been studying the Chosen Forum for the second half of the night yesterday, and there was too much information in it, and he hadn't been able to sort out a lot of content for the time being.

But there was one thing he noticed in particular, there were a lot of people selling "Gladiatus" (gladiators) in the trading section, and the so-called "gladiators" were carriers who had not yet been able to become the chosen ones.

The gladiator information sold on the forums generally includes the following content: the city they are in, the range of activities they are frequent, the level of the gladiator, the skills they have..... The higher the level of the gladiator information, the higher the asking price, and one of the level 18 gladiator information in California sold for 1,000 bitcoins, which is about 30 million Chinese coins.

One of the most terrifying things for Cheng Mo is that if the real identity of the gladiator is written in the sale information, the asking price is higher.

At first, Cheng Mo was a little strange why the "carrier" was called a gladiator, because he felt that it was more appropriate to be called a summoner than a gladiator, and he realized the deep meaning later.

Obviously, one of the important ways to improve the level of the carrier is to rely on the carrier of "winning" or "killing" other people to obtain, and Cheng Mo speculated that maybe killing the ontology can obtain higher benefits, as for whether this benefit is experience or something else, Cheng Mo has no information at all at the moment, all of which will not be figured out until he goes to the Pantheon during the summer vacation.

Last night, Cheng Mo was still full of confidence in his future, he thought that he could even make such an incredible thing as a carrier, and treating his heart disease was just a gesture.

The wonderful feeling of being about to escape from the shadow of death made him feel a rare pleasure, but when he speculated that killing the body could get more resources, Cheng Mo's pleasure immediately disappeared without a trace, which was really a tiger's den for him before he jumped out, and he entered Longtan again.....

In fact, at that time, he thought that it would be the safest thing to sell this piece of Urobolos, but he researched it on the trading forum and found that his activated Ulopolos was not worth anything at all......

Cheng Mo even guessed that maybe when the body died, this Ulopolos would revert to an active state, and the previous owner of this Ulopolos might be his father, and Cheng Mo even shuddered a little when he thought of this.

How did this piece of Uroboros come into Li Jiting's hands? How much does he know about the Chosen One, and what does his father have to do with the Chosen One.......

This puzzle is like a heavy shackle around the heart, and there is no trace of the joy that Cheng Mo originally obtained the carrier, Cheng Mo's sexiness is the kind of typical person who thinks of danger in times of peace, others pick up such a miracle, I am afraid that they will rejoice in the sky, feel that the world is really wonderful, and the world is up to me.....

Cheng Mo felt the same way in a short moment, but the more he looked at the forum, the more palpitations he became, feeling that he might have entered a world that was more magical than the real world, but also much more dangerous......

Cheng Mo got out of the car and walked to the classroom, his body still couldn't withstand the toss as always, but thinking of being able to use the carrier at night, Cheng Mo was vaguely looking forward to it, death was smiling at us all the time, and the only thing we could do was to taunt us head-on.

This world is a huge gladiatorial arena, where various species are fighting to the death, and when Homo sapiens stands at the top of the food chain, various races or nations begin a never-ending struggle.

Putting aside these communities of destiny, how can each individual not be a gladiator?

Cheng Mo raised his head and stared at the four golden characters of Changya Middle School, and said in his heart: This is just a gladiatorial arena, and anyone who can become a master in the end has experienced a harsh environment and the rules of competition for survival of the fittest.....

At this moment, Cheng Mo has begun to work hard to accept the reality, hoping to quickly find new rules and learn to adapt, and then wait for the opportunity to move.

Cheng Mo feels that a strong person can become a strong person in any rule, like him, he can not only be a good student, but also undoubtedly become a successful person in the future. However, Cheng Mo was not clear at this time, he just saw a faint mist at the edge of that world.

It was a world he couldn't imagine right now, with no rules at all.

If anything, there is only one rule – equivalent exchange.

Note 1: Gladiator – Gladiator, also known as "sword fighter", was a specially trained slave, emancipated slave, freeman, or prisoner of war in ancient Rome, who fought with each other with short swords, shields, or other weapons, to the applause of the audience. In the Roman Empire, about 2,000 years ago, similar entertainment was popular.

1. Gladiators do not fight against animals. The performers who fight the animals in the arena are called "best beastfighters". In the eyes of the Romans, the Beast Fighter and the Gladiator belonged to two completely different professions. Hunting shows (venationes) and gladiatorial games (munera) are also two different types of entertainment. During the day of entertainment in the arena, the hunting show usually takes place first, followed by the public execution of death row prisoners, and finally the finale is the gladiatorial competition.

2. Gladiators were not responsible for the execution of criminals. Death row prisoners in the arena are often dealt with by hungry beasts.

3. Sometimes gladiators can surrender in battle (missio), and the loser is not necessarily killed.

4. Gladiators are not soldiers. Many gladiators were Gentile prisoners of war, and the Romans did not trust them.
