In terms of pure enjoyment of the battle, James is not averse to his current special state.

Step by step, through the practice of martial arts, master the body, explore the potential, gradually temper the most basic boxing strength to the state of "qi", and rely on the massive vitality brought by the unique mutant genetic talent, and finally condense into the "raw energy field".

Possessed the exuberant energy of the outward energy, James could not find the purest joy of fighting as a martial artist for a long time.

He misses the kind of fist-to-hand fighting. "Hoo ....."

James exhaled the lilac smoke that lingered in his chest, tilted his head and spit out only a small piece of the alien version of his cigar, and the gladiators who surrounded him on all sides suddenly paused when they saw him move, one by one like a rabbit approaching a napping tiger.

"It's all rubbish..."

Of all the gladiators besieging James, a dark-skinned female warrior pulled out a curved glass wine bottle from her bosom, bit the cork off it, and drank the dark brown liquid in two sips, her eyes red from the unique liquor of Sakaxing.

She couldn't help but taunt the hundreds of warriors in the arena with such a frightened appearance, smashed the wine bottle to the ground, and then drew the two one-handed swords on her back, and rushed towards James first. Bang bang!

With a swing fist, he swung away the double swords that the women had slashed together.

James didn't move an inch, and he didn't need to show his bone blade, he punched straight into the opponent's midline, and even the seven or eight gladiators behind the female fighter exploded out in unison.

"Huh? The strength of the flesh is not bad."

James hit the woman's sternum, although he only casually exerted thirty percent of the force, but the force of the spiral penetration did not destroy the other party's bones and internal organs at all.

is just able to take a punch from James without being injured, and he is already a rare fighter in the Saka Star Arena.

The woman's charge, though only momentarily repulsed, was like a battle horn.

These warriors, imprisoned and enslaved by the High Heavenly Venerable, have no rights or freedoms to life on this chaotic planet, and must not refuse every battle they are ordered to participate in.

Although the gladiators who knew that they were invincible were extremely frightened in their hearts, the consequences of retreating without a fight must be countless times more terrible than a happy death.

Stunned! The bone blade stabbed out, and James slashed out from the middle of the chest of a two-headed giant more than two meters tall with a tiger-like charm, and then jumped into the crowd from the torn flesh and blood, and danced his claws wide open.

The claw shadows flew, and the strange heads and limbs jumped up, purely a machine specializing in crushing corpses.

Champion "Wolverine" was able to become the most obsessed fighter of the Saka people so quickly, in large part because of his bloody and even flashy fighting style.

He seems to be an angry and savage beast, but every combat action is imbued with an indescribable beauty of harmony.

Especially in the face of a multi-person siege, James often closed his eyes slightly, relying only on the perception of his body and consciousness to instinctually surrender the battle, freely immersed in the dozens of tomahawk swords that were slashed, as if wandering in the wilderness with a soft breeze.

In the only giant box in the center of the arena, Gao Tianzun and his guests each had a face, and the atmosphere was extremely subtle.

"Tell me, my brother, what do you want to trade this 'collection' for."

"Collector" Tanlia Tivan slowly lowered her elegant silver-white glasses and finally sat up straight.

But those pair of eyeliner and some bewitching eyes were still staring at James's figure, as if they were looking at a rare treasure.

"When did I say ~~ I'm going to sell you my most precious 'champion'!"

Gao Tianzun rolled his eyelids disdainfully, and his legs couldn't help shaking, trembling even more vigorously.

"En Duwe Gast... People like us have lived countless years, so don't play these meaningless tricks, which of your champions can stay in this ruined garbage planet and play with you forever? They're not the ones you can manipulate because you're afraid of death."

No one in Saka knows the true name of the "High Heavenly Venerable" or the "Grandmaster", let alone his origin.

When the planet was still ruled by the original race, the High Celestial Venerable descended on Saka like a visitor from outside the sky.

Soon, the atmospheric environment and the outer space around the planet were wrapped in anomalous space turbulence, completely disconnected from the outside universe.

And the little information revealed from the mouth of this guest who can freely enter the Saka Star is not only a mysterious person like Gao Tianzun and the collector.

「..... Intelligent beings must rely on some hope to survive, and you tell them that by becoming champions, they can control their own freedom and destiny, and promise that these powerful warriors can get out of here, but... Actually? Hehe, make a bid, my brother."

Tanya Tivan held a dark green wine glass with strange eyes, and said leisurely that he and Gao Tianzun had already had such a deal.

"Hey... Although this human from the Nine Kingdoms of the World Tree is special and powerful enough, and even I suspect that his true power has been greatly reduced by the influence of the 'Eternal Flame', sooner or later he will not be able to escape the fate of being burned into nothingness by that flame... ＂

Gao Tianzun tugged at his chin and a small gray beard, looking at the battle on the field, his eyes were full of appreciation.

I don't know if there is an element of performance, so I continued with a look of helpless regret:

"Flame Giant Surtr is able to absorb the power of the 'Eternal Flame' because of his innate characteristics", the origin of this thing is probably not clear to Odin himself, but you and I always know a little... It's worth... ＂

"I told you you could ask for it."

The "Collector" put down his glass, and half of the fighters on the field were already cleaved to pieces by James's claws, and blood flowed from the center of the arena to the surroundings, like a blood-splattered "sun" picture.

"Tiwan, I know you're collecting those stones, hmph, though I don't know what you're doing it for, and I certainly think it's stupid, but...... I want you to lend me three of them! And also... A thousand years of free warriors for me to compete with."

I don't know when, only Gao Tianzun and the Collector were left in the empty giant box, and their attendants and servants had been out of the room for a long time.

Tanya Tiwan frowned twice when he heard Gao Tianzun's first half of the sentence, and after a while, he indifferently spit out a few words.

"Which three."

"Reality, space, mind!"

For thousands of years, Gao Tianzun, who has been obscene and weird in the eyes of the Saka people, and Gao Tianzun, who has been obliterating life and joking, said solemnly for the first time, and even the layers of big folds on his face tightened a lot.

"I... There's no guarantee when you'll get your hands on them, and there's already news that the Fallen Titan is looking for them."

"Hah! I'm not in a hurry, time is the least valuable to us, isn't it? Hehe, I can help you with this too... Wait a minute! Change one! Until you meet my conditions, you must continue to collect strong fighters for me, and don't fill them with junk goods!"

Gao Tianzun's solemnity seemed to be an illusion, and as soon as Tiwan's words fell, his facial features were twisted together, like a dry chrysanthemum, and then he stretched out his right hand, waiting for something with a playful expression. Syllable!

The collector didn't hesitate for long, raised his left hand and shook it with Gao Tianzun beside him, as if to conclude some kind of mysterious contract, and the two of them muttered obscure language at the same time, but the long tone revealed a strange ancient taste.

It wasn't until the power in the darkness was witnessed that the two of them suddenly let go of their hands, as if they didn't want to touch each other for a moment.

"Well, lo and behold, your new 'collection' is almost over this boring battle."

Gao Tianzun sat down on the back of the bench that looked like flesh and blood without any image, and pointed down and said casually.

In the arena, James' one-handed bone blade blocked several of the blades of the modified insect Mick, slashing the tentacles that cut off the insects in a flash of sparks, and made a tall and hideous one

of the Zerg monsters were chopped into wriggling caterpillars without hands.

"Mick, oh Mick!"

Krog the Kroon stone man dropped the mace in his hand and looked at James with his good friend Mick in his arms, and there were only seven or eight gladiators left on the battlefield who were not dead, and they all shrank aside and did not dare to come up again.

Only the dark-skinned female warrior was still slashing her sword, and after being kicked by James again, she shouted angrily and stood up.

"Odin is above! The splendor of Valhalla leads Valkyrie!"

On the one hand, this female warrior is indeed outstanding, and her physical toughness is stronger than that of most Saka gladiators, and on the other hand, because she is the only woman on the field, James did not kill her with a single move.

But as soon as the words of her cry pierced her ears, James's interest was immediately aroused.

The long sword that clawed the woman's right hand flipped off and flung at the snake-headed alien on the other side, piercing his neck.

grabbed the woman by the neck and slowly lifted her up. "Asgardians?"

Valkyrie grabbed James's fingers with both hands, but his palms were as unshakable as if they were forged from Uru metal, his throat and eyes were not strangled, and he could still struggle with some breath:

「... You, you don't care where I'm from! You thought you could get out of Sa, Saka... ＂

Poof!

James let go and left the woman, and by this time there was no blood on his body, and he was about to speak, when the stone man who had been crying for a long time came over.

"Wow, Kim, Lord Wolverine, can you not kill me... While Gao Tianzun may dispose of me after the match, I want to leave more time to bury Mick's body..."

James and Valkyrie looked at Kogg the Stone Man with strange eyes, he waved his hand casually, and then said to the woman:

"I've come here thanks to your god-king Odin, Godlander, and you know of a pot of flame in the treasure house of Asgard..... What is it?"

The crowd in the arena was a little dissatisfied with the sudden "Wolverine" who was not killed, and they all stretched out their hands in unison, thumbs down, and booed incessantly, encouraging James to wipe out all his opponents.

"One, a pot of fire?"

Valkyrie didn't expect the other party to ask such a strange question, she has been away from Asgard for nearly two thousand years, and she has been living on Saka Star for more than a hundred years, and she has long forgotten many details about Asgard.

But in the days when she was still fighting for Odin Poulsen, she did see the god king of the Aesir Protoss harvest a flaming spoil, and that was .....

"Eternal Flame?"

Hearing this, James's eyes flashed, and he didn't rush to ask more, he raised his head and waved his hand at the box where Gao Tianzun was located, picked up Valkyrie and walked towards the entrance of the arena, and stopped playing immediately.

"Hehehe... Your champion is quite special, I don't think he acts like a lone warrior, and it is the opposite of his crazy domineering when he fights, and he seems to be a long-time figure... What is the origin of this 'Wolverine'?"

Gao Tianzun pursed his lips a little embarrassed, but he didn't care that James trampled on his competition rules like this, his eyes flashed and guessed:

"His access to the Eternal Flame and his legacy on my star Saka must have something to do with Odin...... You say that the 'Heavenly Father' is dead, does it have a direct relationship with this human being? Hey! Such a character who can fight the king of the Nine Realms head-on, your broken fish tank will not be able to lock him down......

At the same time as Gao Tianzun was talking to the collector, James grabbed Valkyrie by the collar and threw her to the corner of the waiting area of the arena, and said neatly:

"Tell me everything you know about the Eternal Flame, and I can tell you something important about Asgard."

Valkyrie scoffed and got up and leaned against the wall, looking uninterested in Asgard.

After a while, the smile on her face faded little by little, and she whispered back to the experience of riding a white-winged Pegasus thousands of years ago.

...

"One of the most tragic battles in the history of the Aesir Protoss was not the battle against the mighty Dark Elves, let alone the battle that first annexed the Warner Protoss, but the conquest of Musberheim, the boundless fire domain... Flame Giant."

James listened to the woman's slow narration, and made up some secrets and stories about the Aesir Protoss in his heart, but for the so-called "eternal fire", the doubts in his heart were even worse.

「..... In this way, Odin, who was at the peak of his life, became a giant as tall as a mountain, and his 'Gangenir' set up the Twilight Sword, and then pierced through the head of the King of Flame Giants, and picked out a red flame from his brain that never burned forever, and then Surtr's size shrank a thousand times, and his strength shrank to the bottom, and he was no longer in the climate..." ＂

Valkyrie opened his mouth hesitantly after talking about the ancient War of the Nine Realms, and seeing that James was pondering and seemed to have forgotten what he had promised himself, he reminded softly and uncomfortably:

"You, the one you said... The thing about Asgard is—"

"Oh, I'm sorry I'm a little distracted, um... Your god-king Odin, should be dead."

After James finished speaking, he only watched the woman's eyes turn from shock to deep fear, and then, a raging rage ignited.....

It was a flame of hatred.
