Chapter 40: The Colosseum of Honkai Anton

After leaving the dock, Anton did not go back to the hospital, nor did he go back to the treehouse, in fact, how could he go back with confidence.

Du Ze is a legend in Dongcheng District, his reputation for being resolute and resolute is very mysterious, Anton doesn't know him, so I don't know if he will keep his promises, but Anton knows a little, Du Ze is not a good person, in fact, who among these people in Dongcheng District is a good person?

None of them are good people, just like the old man Balbo will be furious because of the 50,000 deniers of unknown origin, they are not bear children who are accustomed to scourge his cornfields, but real unpleasant "bad boys" who are proficient in stealing and deception , He doesn't know Du Ze, but he understands who is begging for a life in the bottom society of Dongcheng District, although it only took a short time for Kru Du Ze to break out of his own world in Dongcheng District, but in fact, to put it bluntly, he may be very promising, but he is now just a gangster leader who has collected a group of thieves and orphans under his hands, and his two-year life experience in Dongcheng District tells Anton that there is no reason for such a person to spend 100,000 Dan to hire a little kid like them, and 100,000 Dan can almost buy a Snow person as a bodyguard for life in this place in Dongcheng DistrictA gangster is not yet generous enough to invest this money in an unreliable little kid at will, so there must be something wrong with this.

There is a tributary of the Gongjiang River that flows in from the upstream, and there is no branch for a long distance downstream, Du Ze's boat is from the upstream, and when he leaves the port, he also goes down the river, Anton is not a very smart person, he has no clue at all where Du Ze wants to drive the boat, but he will still be stupid, no matter where the boat goes, there is always a time to stop, as long as he looks along the Gongjiang River, he can always find it.

At this time, the night is dark, and not all places on the side of the Gongjiang River are the same as Dongcheng District, there are people wandering day and night, and he is still a little dazzling when he walks alone on the empty streets, but fortunately, the fog on the river is a little heavy tonight, and even the area with the river can be seen very low.

Anton groped all the way along the river in the fog, and he didn't know how long he walked, because of the dry season, the red cordon on the stone pillar inserted in the river had been exposed, and he didn't know if Du Ze's small boat would hit the reef because of this, Anton held his waist and took a breath, he was a flexible fat man, he was good at escaping, but he was not good at long-distance running, walking such a long distance along the river almost tired him down, maybe it was time for him to lose weight, Anton thought.

As he was running, something suddenly hit Anton's head and knocked him to the ground.

"Who, how can you walk without looking at the road?" Anton rubbed his head that hurt a little, and looked at it, he was hit by a child who was about the same size as him, he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a hood, and a leather jacket on the outside, while knocking down Anton, he himself was knocked to the ground, his hood was pulled lower, but Anton still saw his face, but it was just a quick glance, his complexion was very pale, and the pupils in his golden eyes were fusiform, Anton couldn't recognize what race he was for a while, he quickly got up from the ground, covered his face with a hood, didn't say anything, directly bypassed Anton who was still on the ground, and left quickly。

"Eh, you guy, won't you even apologize?" Anton yelled at him, but he could only see the man's back being swallowed by the white mist, and Anton had to smack his tongue, "Bastard guy." Then he got up from the ground himself, and he didn't have time to reason about it.

He patted the dust off his body, turned his gaze back to the river, and continued to search for the traces of Du Ze's boat.

It took him a lot of time to walk along the river from the port, and he had spared almost half of the city, but he still didn't find out where the ship had gone, and Anton felt a little frustrated, and he held on to the railing of the river and looked at the river to rest for a while.

The thick white fog on the river was constantly churning, Anton looked at the surging white mist, and thought in his heart that it was not Du Ze's boat that really hit the reef in the fog, he swept out a few dead leaves on the road with his feet, and the leaves slowly fell to the river.

To Anton's surprise, the leaves did not flow along the river, but as if they were pulled by some force, drifting to the center of the river, Anton looked fixedly, under the tumbling mist, there was a huge whirlpool, as if there was a big hole at the bottom of the river that was seeping into it.

Although he couldn't see it through the fog, Anton was still shocked by what he saw, the whirlpool was still getting bigger, and there seemed to be the shadow of a boat in the center of the whirlpool, the boat was very familiar, Anton took a closer look, it was the boat he had been looking for all night.

At this moment, the small boat floated away like the center of the whirlpool because of the traction of the river, and Anton suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and he shouted towards the small boat, "Xinghe!"

There was no response on the boat, and he was silently taken off by the whirlpool, and finally he couldn't see even a shadow, Anton looked at the whirlpool on the river with a strange expression, there was no one on the boat, just before the boat was swallowed by the river, Anton roughly saw a little above the situation, there was no one on board, it was an empty ship.

When did Du Ze and Xinghe get off the boat, and where are they now?

Anton raised his head, he had already walked to the side of the main square before he himself noticed, the towering building of the Jiangcheng Grand Gladiatorial Arena was not far away, but because it was shrouded in fog, he didn't notice it just now.

The silence of the night made Anton hear some sounds that should not be here, it was the sound of rushing water, coming from under his feet, the sound was not loud, but remembering the whirlpool he had just seen on the river, Anton felt that something bad was about to happen.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a slight shaking to come from under his feet, not very violent at first, but the earthquake in Khiva two years ago was not strong at first, and Anton did not forget this, and he ran quickly to the open field in the center of the road.

The shaking was not violent, but it continued, and the street lamps on the street flickered and flickered in the shaking, and finally all of them went out, because of the earthquake, the citizens who were still sleeping were suddenly awakened, and the silent road was suddenly filled with frightened people.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation in the distance, and following the source of the sound, Anton saw a scene that shocked him, the Colosseum began to collapse.

A crack appeared on the outer wall of this landmark building in Jiangcheng, and it was still expanding, everyone was fleeing in that direction, but Anton didn't, the whirlpool on the river, the boat in the whirlpool, the sound of running water under his feet, Anton felt that the collapse of the Great Gladiatorial Arena must have something to do with Du Ze, in that case, the galaxy must be there.

It was a very difficult thing to walk against the flow of people, and Anton had a great deal of effort to squeeze to the edge of the Colosseum, the shaking of the ground had stopped, and the crack in the high wall of the Colosseum was more than half a meter thick at its widest point.

Everyone had already fled, including the janitor of the Colosseum, and Anton had walked through the small door of the janitor's room, which he had not closed.

The furniture in the colosseum fell to the ground, and the rope used to raise the flag in the colosseum lay on the ground and almost tripped Anton, he kicked the rope and walked through the janitorial room to the stands of the Colosseum, the crack not only divided the high wall, but also cut off part of the opening of the Colosseum, but more importantly, the battlefield where the gladiators fought each other in the past was gone, and the flat ground at the bottom of the Colosseum became a deep pit.

Anton walked down the stands until he reached the bottom of the arena, where he stood in a sturdy-looking spot and leaned towards the bottom of the pit.

I don't know how deep this pit is, the bottom of the pit is muddy muddy water, and the water level is still rising, rising very fast, Anton just lay on the side and watched for a while, and found that the water level has risen by more than half a meter.

What did Du Ze do?

Looking at this deep pit that suddenly appeared, Anton couldn't help but smack his tongue.

There was a faint whistle in the distance, people in Dongcheng District are very familiar with this sound, it is a signal for the police to send out the police, the street is so chaotic, it is a normal thing for the police to come out to maintain law and order, if you are caught by the police here for questioning, it is always bad, so Anton plans to leave.

At this moment, Anton inadvertently caught a glimpse of something on the water, it seemed that it was a person's head, Anton looked carefully, it was a person who was treading water on the water with difficulty, as the water level rose, Anton saw the person's face clearly, it was the galaxy.

"Galaxy!" Anton shouted down.

The galaxy below the pit raised his head at the sound of the voice, his face turned pale, and Anton doubted that he would be able to hold out until the water level was high enough for him to climb up from the bottom of the pit.

"Xinghe, hold on a little longer. Anton ran back to the janitor's room and found the rope that had nearly tripped over him.

"Xinghe, and then the rope!" Anton tied one end of the rope to the railing of the gladiatorial arena and threw the other end to Xinghe, but fortunately he still had some strength, although it was a little difficult, but he still pulled Xinghe up.

"Xinghe, are you okay?" Anton patted Xinghe on the back, Xinghe didn't know how long he had been running in the water, his whole body was wet, and after coming up, he was blown by the wind and couldn't help but start to tremble all over.

Anton hurriedly took off his coat and put it on him, Xinghe firmly grasped Anton's coat, regardless of the fact that he was trembling, and without hesitation, a sentence burst out from between his teeth, "Hurry up." ”

Seeing his serious face, Anton didn't dare to ask more, so he took him back the way he came, the long street outside the colosseum was empty, and the police could be seen pulling the cordon from a distance.

"Something has fallen out of front!" They hadn't walked a few steps before they were stopped, and Anton turned around to see a young policeman looking at them with a damp envelope in his hand.

Anton secretly screamed that it was not good, but he still left Xinghe in place, and walked towards the policeman with a smile, "Ah, thank you, Mr. Officer." ”

He took the envelope from the policeman, who knew that the envelope had been blistered for too long, and Anton scratched it when he took it.

A dozen banknotes worth five hundred dans on the wet ground covered the ground between the two of them at once.
