Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Minotaur
After seeing off Ronald, Dipo immediately left the Colosseum of Tistu and went to the Prescott family to find Deborah Deacon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Deborah is in charge of most of the family's external affairs, and Deborah is his boss while Debob is the director of the arena.
"Mask duel?" Fei Rui sat in a chair, holding a cup of top-notch black tea brewed in his hand, his expression lost in thought.
Dipo knelt on the ground, his head against the ground, and said respectfully, "Yes, that's what Commander Morton told me. ”
"Deborah, what do you think he is doing this?" said Ferry, sitting there in an impeccable aristocratic posture, a smile curling into his lips.
"Young master, I don't know. Deborah stood aside with his hands behind his back, his expression humble and a kind smile.
"Well, forget it, no matter what kind of purpose he has, as long as it is a decision that is beneficial to our family, it can be adopted. My father has always taught us that as long as we can bring benefits to the family, we are all friends of the family!"
"Dibo, you go back, cooperate with his idea to implement, and see how the benefits are before making the next judgment. ”
"Yes, Master Fei Rui. ”
Dipo fell to his knees, leaned backwards, and exited the door before slowly standing up and respectfully closing the door.
There was an excited look on Debo's face, and he knew he had made the right bet.
When he heard Ronald's idea of a mask duel, Depo realized that this would be a change in the business model of the Colosseum, and if successful, the Colosseum's revenue would at least multiply in the future!
And he, as the director of the Colosseum of Tistu, will undoubtedly be richly rewarded.
"Captain Morton, you're such a good man. With his hands behind his back, Dipo walked away with his fat round belly.
The next day, the Colosseum of Tistu changed dramatically, and all the staff were busy reworking all the competition schedules set for the next month.
Depo also approached Ronald as soon as possible and signed a new contract for the Winter Mercenaries and the Colosseum of Tistu as a hir. It is clearly written in the contract that the bronze members of the Winter Mercenary Regiment will compete under the arrangement of the Colosseum of Tistu.
Their remuneration will be differentiated by the format of the competition.
If it is a normal match, then the reward is 50 gold coins per game. If it's a life-and-death fight, then it will be 100 gold coins a game.
If a member of the Winter Mercenary Regiment is injured during a match, the Colosseum will be responsible for the cost of treatment, and if they are disabled, they will pay a lump sum of 300 gold coins, and if they die in a life-and-death fight...... A one-time payment of 500 gold coins will be made!
When Depo took out the contract, he explained to Ronald with a bitter face...... If it is a slave, it is a copper plate appearance fee that you can't even think of, this is still depending on the fact that they are members of the Winter Mercenary Regiment, it seems that the face of Ronald Commander is the amount approved by Dipo repeatedly explained and begged the adults above.
Listening to Dipo's explanation, Ronald was full of gratitude and quickly signed his name on the contract. As for his explanation, he didn't believe a word.
Debo: They may have only instinctively sensed the huge profits that could be brought by mask duels, but Ronald had great faith in this model. Because when I was on Earth, masked wrestling or something, but it was popular all over the world!
A performance model that can be popular all over the world, even if it does not have such a huge influence in this world, the huge profits brought by it are not comparable to a few hundred gold coins.
What's more, this is an amount that will only be claimed for disability or even death, and Ronald has no intention of letting his members die in such a slave duel. With the system store by its side, as long as the members of the regiment still have a breath of air, Ronald is sure that they will survive.
Three days passed, and Dipo was busy in the gladiatorial arena every day, all so that the mask duel could be displayed in the eyes of customers with the most perfect opening.
However, the world does not seem to have a habit of publicizing it, but likes to show off their creativity to customers in a small way of 'surprise'.
So in addition to the fact that the people inside the gladiatorial arena knew about all this, the people outside did not receive any rumors. Ronald didn't bother to explain to them what advertising was, anyway, his goal had been achieved, and it was none of his business whether he could maximize the benefits.
The sixteen Bronze-level members of the Winter Mercenary Regiment are all on the contract list in the Colosseum of Tistu, and even Duruna is no exception. In order to allow this duel mode to be able to fully train the group members, Ronald decided to make Cowan the first to play.
With his strong physique and the strength to crush ordinary bronze ranks, I believe that he will give the audience a passionate performance.
And the only thing Ronald needs to worry about is what kind of masks to arrange for the members?
In the end, Ronald left this choice directly to the members of the group for their own consideration, as long as the mask style is not repeated, and everyone can make the mask feel like a new identity, it is not considered a violation of their own rules.
On the day when he was preparing to carry out the mask duel, Ronald received the news early, because they were insiders, so they naturally had a viewing area dedicated to them.
The so-called internal viewing area is actually the post of the guards, but because of the angle, the entire gladiatorial arena can be seen at a glance, and the visual effect is even better than those spectators.
Because the gladiatorial arena did not advertise the 'Mask Duel', the people who came to watch it today were all regular customers, and the entire viewing table was only about half full.
However, Dipo didn't care, and seemed to be a little more confident than Ronald.
Amid the excited shouts of the spectators, the game began.
Like a football field-sized playing field, the iron gates on both sides were pulled up and slowly opened, and Cowan **** wore an upper body and a pair of leather pants on his lower body, revealing his burly and strong figure.
The Colosseum is not open-air, and there are many bonfires lit around it, so the temperature is naturally not colder than outside. But seeing the party participating in the duel actually walked out with the upper body ****, it still made these viewers feel surprised.
In particular, this guy who is so burly that he doesn't look like a human even wears a bull head mask made of bronze on his face!
This made the audience feel even more inexplicable.
Cowan walked out from behind the iron gate, carrying a military axe in his hand, which was naturally not as heavy and sharp as his dragon slaying spear, but it was also a murder weapon capable of splitting a war horse in half with an axe.
As soon as the axe gun came out, the audience howled excitedly again.
On the other side, another iron gate opened, and this time out was a slave with chains and shackles tied to his hands and feet. The slave wore a thin, shabby shirt and shaved his hair very short, revealing Aomori's scalp and a serious expression.
I saw him holding a short sword in one hand and a shield in the other, dragging the anklets and walking out.
Although his hands and feet were bound by chains, the chains were long enough to drag him to the ground, and they were not heavy enough to affect his movements.
Before, because of habitual thinking, the audience was not aware of it, but now after the comparison, many people immediately shouted in the audience.
The slaves in the gladiatorial arena were all required to wear chains to play, but today it was not only a player who was not wearing a chain, but even a strange mask on his face, and these spectators suddenly felt that the competition was 'unfair'.
Fortunately, Dipo had expected this scene for a long time, and a man from the gladiatorial arena ran out and began to explain to the guests in the audience.
After a while, the audience suppressed the noise and began to sit in their chairs and whisper.
Mask duel?
A player who is not a slave?
Since you are not a slave, why should you participate in the competition between slaves?
Curiosity, followed by excitement......
The silence in the stands did not last long, and soon, again, it was filled with the noise of guests.
"Come on...... Kill him......"
"Kill him, kill this slave!"
"Minotaur, don't ink, is your axe gun for tickling?"
Dipo closed his eyes, listened to the noise in the stands, took a deep breath, and said intoxicatedly, "Listen, this is the sound of gold coins...... I feel like I'm seeing a lot of gold coins flying over!"
Ronald looked at Cowan in the playing field, and through the bronze mask, the two looked at each other.
Ronald raised the thumb of his right hand and poked it hard at the ground: "Since the effect is good, let's add another fire, the gladiatorial arena always needs to see blood to be stimulated." ”
