Chapter 6: The Colosseum
"Hey, didn't you say you wanted to help me win? What did you bring me here for?! ”
Meng Tie followed behind Li Ling, scanning left and right, and was walking in a dim passage downward.
"There's a monster arena down here, we can go there and try it."
Li Ling pushed open the iron fence in front of the passage and led Meng Tie into a huge underground square.
The sight suddenly opens up, and the square is extremely wide!
Li Ling and the two of them instantly seemed to be in the room of a giant, extremely small.
For example, in the Roman gladiatorial arena, the whole square is circular, and the square is surrounded by steps for everyone to watch the duel in the arena.
"I'll it, it turns out that there is such a big square underground, I never knew it."
Meng Tie looked curiously at the Colosseum below, his eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a new continent.
"Haha! Welcome to the biggest monster arena in Rovidea City, the Colosseum!! ”
At this time, a tall blonde man in a purple suit appeared in the middle of the square with a microphone!
He raised his arms and said passionately: "Blood and violence, money and monsters!" Here, you can bring out all the blood that comes from your heart!! ”
"Indulge! Spend your money! Let our monsters give you a feast for the eyes!! ”
"Roar!!
Before the host's voice fell, everyone in the stands raised their arms and shouted, waving and shouting, and they were all mobilized to blush and excited!!
"Hahaha! Brother, you took me to discover a good place!! ”
The infected Meng Tie was extremely excited, and shouted with everyone, if it weren't for the loss of money, he would have thrown out all the money on his body!
"Calm down, it's the host who used voice techniques to confuse your emotions."
Li Ling's arm was on Meng Tie's shoulder, and the other party's expression was suddenly shocked, his eyes immediately returned to clarity, and the excitement just now also dissipated a lot.
"Holy! It turns out that the host is yin! Meng Tie, who came back to his senses, suddenly scolded angrily, and was about to roll up his sleeves and go up to fight.
"It's just one of the ways the Colosseum collects money." Li Ling's face was flat, and he said slowly: "If you don't want to face the siege of the thugs in the entire Colosseum, I suggest that you don't use force here." ”
Hearing this, Meng Tie was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and sneered: "Hehe, excited, excited." The other party must have raised a lot of thugs, but I still don't do it. ”
As he spoke, his eyes rolled slightly, and he leaned close to Li Ling's ear and whispered: "Brother, since we are sober, then when the game starts, won't we win casually?" ”
"You think too simply, it's just that you're confused, and those who really come to gamble won't be deceived by this little trick."
Li Ling glanced around, only to see that among the many excited spectators, there were more than a dozen gamblers with calm faces and eagle-like eyes.
All of them were old acquaintances of the Colosseum.
"Damn, there are so many unaffected?!"
Seeing this, Meng Tie suddenly felt a huge sense of frustration, and at the same time secretly glanced at Li Ling beside him, and said in confusion: This guy is obviously only level 3, how can he look more powerful than my level 5?
"Everyone, the one who is about to appear is our protagonist today, Tulonghot!!"
With a wave of his hand, a huge cage was slowly pushed onto the field, and one of the hideous huge lizards was climbing on the cage wall and roaring fiercely!
"Damn, this big lizard can do it! It's not easy to see! Meng Tie looked surprised, staring at the monster in the square.
"And the other one is our seemingly cute but actually tough evil cat Turing!"
The host turned around and waved again, and a normal-sized black cat was brought up on the other side of the room.
"Isn't it, these two guys fighting? Can this kitten hurt that lizard? Meng Tie's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that the difference in strength between the two sides of the fight was so big: "This won't be shady, right?!" ”
"Don't worry, after these low-level monsters enter the fighting stage, they will basically lose their minds and will not be controlled by others, so even if they want to play match-fixing, they can't do it." Li Ling sat calmly in the stands, and his tone was light: "That's why many people are more willing to bet on this." ”
"In that case, what are you waiting for?!"
Seeing that everyone began to bet, Meng Tie couldn't wait to say, "Then let's hurry up and bet on that lizard to win!" ”
"Nope." Li Ling looked at the black cat in the center of the field with a cold look in his eyes: "That cat will win." ”
"Are you crazy?!" Meng Tie said incredulously: "With such a big gap, how can that cat win?!" Don't tell me you're deliberately doing the opposite, I don't believe in this kind of speculation! ”
After speaking, Meng Tie no longer bothered with Li Ling, and immediately ran away with his remaining weapon to bet excitedly.
After coming back, Meng Tie didn't forget to pat Li Ling on the shoulder and laughed: "Brother, although you speculated a little, this place you brought me here is really good!" Hahahaha! ”
Li Ling: "........."
……
Half an hour later, the battle in the field ended.
The big lizard was dragged out of the field with a scarred and dying breath, but the black cat was still standing in the middle of the field!
"Wo Cao!! That black cat really won?!! ”
Meng Tie stood up abruptly, looking at the black cat in the field in disbelief, his brain blank.
And Li Ling was expressionless, as if he already knew everything.
Suddenly, Meng Tie seemed to think of something, and immediately turned around and grabbed Li Ling's shoulders, and said excitedly: "Brother! You've made a fortune! The odds of that black cat just now are 1 to 100! You can make 1000 credits by throwing 10 credits! How much did you just vote? ”
Looking at Meng Tie, who seemed to have forgotten that he had lost money, Li Ling was speechless, and then said lightly: "I didn't bet." ”
"What ?!!!"
As soon as the words fell, Meng Tie suddenly grabbed his head with both hands and said incredulously: "Ah!! You know the outcome, why don't you bet!! ”
Li Ling's eyes were as calm as ice: "Because I don't like to gamble." ”
"Ahh It's over, I'm running into a madman! I just missed 100 million!! ”
Looking at Meng Tie, who was sick, Li Ling didn't bother to deal with it, but slowly spoke: "The next game is about to start, do you want to listen to me?" ”
"To !!"
Before the words fell, Meng Tie stood up suddenly, as if resurrected with full blood, his eyes lit up, staring at Li Ling's face tightly, and said sincerely: "Brother, today you are my eldest brother, I believe you whatever you say!! ”
……
Two hours later, Meng Tie, who had lost nothing, looked at the 50,000 silver coins in his account and smiled like a fool.
"Let's go."
The Colosseum was just at halftime, and Li Ling stood up and walked back.
"Huh?!! Walk? What to go? Meng Tie immediately closed his account panel and said in surprise: "The game is not over yet, we can still make a lot of money!" ”
"We've got the Colosseum managers on their radar." Li Ling glanced at the VIP stands above and said indifferently: "If you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave." ”
"What?!" Meng Tie was taken aback, and then realized that the behavior of the two of them was too eye-catching.
Not to mention the managers of the Colosseum, even other gamblers have their eyes on Li Ling and the others from time to time.
……
VIP stands.
A silver-haired woman held a wine glass and looked down at the two departing figures outside the window.
And the time Li Ling looked back at the VIP room just now, he happened to meet the silver-haired woman's gaze......
So keenly perceived, guessed that I was observing him?
"Lord Rowling, those two guys who have made a lot of money are about to leave, do you want me to take someone to ......?"
At this time, a gloomy old man stepped forward and bowed his head to ask for instructions, and drew a "erasing" action with his hand.
"Hehe, there are not many people in me who can stay sober, and those who can be content after winning money... There are even fewer of them. ”
Rowling's crimson lips curled slightly, squinted and smiled: "Such an interesting person, I would rather be friends with him than being an enemy~"
