"I'm sorry Mr. Liao Ji, I made you wait for a long time."

Just now, I was still practicing martial arts with my mother, and after lying down tiredly, after hearing my mother actually call out Liao Ji's name, a fierce spirit jumped up from the ground.

After that, the little girl's bright eyes seemed to be full of blood and resurrection, and she immediately hooked it on Liao Ji's body, and then rushed over happily like a little sister next door.

"Brother Liao Ji! Whining... I'm so tired from practicing martial arts... Jiuyou doesn't want to learn from her mother, her mother is too strict, Brother Liao Ji, can you teach me! “

The role played by Liao Ji, although he lost to Jiuyou in the story, is also a runner-up, and he is one of the very few young and powerful gladiators, coupled with his outstanding appearance, he is indeed very attractive to a little girl of Jiuyou's age.

Looking at the lively and lovely Jiuyou, Liao Ji rubbed Long Niang... No, now it's the little head of the dragon girl, and then she said: "I can't teach Jiuyou, I still have to come in person with Ms. Tang, your mother is much better than me." ”

"Hmph, Brother Liao Ji, you're just making excuses! If you don't want to teach, don't teach, slightly! ”

"It's been a long time, you'll be an adult soon, don't be old and still be like a child pestering you Brother Liao Ji, today's thousand times of swinging the knife is still the last hundred, after resting, go and practice, don't be lazy! I still have something to talk about with Mr. Liao Ji. ”

"Hmph, just a child, just a child!" Jiu You pouted, although she was dissatisfied with her mother's urging, she still left obediently and continued to practice wielding knives.

After that, Tang showed an apologetic expression to Liao Ji, and after inviting Liao Ji into the house, it turned out that Tang wanted Liao Ji to help take a look at the new arena rules that were about to be promulgated, and if there was anything that needed to be improved.

Although Liao Ji knew that this was a dream, he still discussed it with Tang very seriously, and the two chatted for almost half an hour before it finally ended, Tang under the oil lamp, looking at the young face of the young man opposite, couldn't help but sigh:

"It's great to have the help of Mr. Liao Ji, alas... If my daughter can have half of you in the future, I will be relieved. ”

"In addition, Mr. Liao Ji doesn't need to call me "you" all the time, I'm not a big person, you are too polite. ”

In this regard, Liao Ji shook his head for the first time and denied Tang, after all, Tang is Jiuyou's mother, even if it is just an illusion, Liao Ji still has to be given the respect he should have.

What's more... Even if he didn't have this identity, just looking at what Tang was doing, Liao Ji felt that he should also respect this dragon woman.

"Liao Ji, in fact, I can feel that you are not all the way with us, or that you seem to be out of place in this turbid world, as if a... Bystander, so I'd love to hear it, Liao Ji, what do you think I did... Is that right? What would you do if it were you who won the championship that day? ”

"I probably don't have the courage and determination of yours, I will just be content with the status quo and try my best to use the follow-up effect of the championship to seek a stable second half of my life for myself, right?"

Liao Ji thought about it and replied honestly, and then Tang on the other side didn't mind, but nodded very understandingly, and then looked up at the blood-red night sky shrouded in turbidity, the round of blood moon, and sighed.

】

"Liao Ji, do you know, if the natural disaster struck back then, my tribe could have even five more doomers, maybe they could be saved, but unfortunately we didn't, at that moment I deeply felt the strength of the turbidity and our weakness."

"However, when I came to the human city, to the Gulase, to the arena, I realized that we are not weak, there are many doomers in the arena, many of them are very strong, very good warriors, this power is enough to destroy many turbid leaders and liberate those polluted areas."

"But... As you can see, we didn't choose to do this, instead of gathering these forces to fight against the doom and natural disasters, to save the world, we were content with the status quo, and even fought each other, letting the doomers die at the hands of our own people, constantly draining our strength, just to... Pleasure. ”

"I understand that being content with the status quo is our commonality, when we have tacitly acquiesced that the world is hopeless, and what everyone pursues is just to have fun in time and to protect themselves..."

"But if, if there is a day when we can unite, we can have people who believe that this world can still be saved, and pass on this belief, so that more people can join it, we will no longer have internal friction, we will no longer kill each other, but we will integrate all our forces to help those who are suffering from turbidity, so that all living beings on this land can be united..."

"Turbidity and natural disasters... Is it really invincible? “

Speaking of this, Tang clenched her hands, her purple dragon eyes showed sadness, if there really was such a day, maybe her tribe would not perish and could be saved by the coalition forces, but unfortunately, it turned out that selfless saviors only exist in fairy tales.

In reality, whether it is a gathering place or a base, they are selfish and ruthless, they build high walls not only to defend against turbid monsters, but also to hide, in order to escape, as long as there is a world inside the wall, what is the outside world, what does it have to do with them?

"I don't have much ability, I can't change the world, what I can do, that is, start from the arena, I want to wake up the gladiators here, I don't want to be satisfied with the status quo, let alone see us fight each other again, and waste our strength on our compatriots."

"Liao Ji, I hope to turn the arena into a training camp, where I can train excellent fighters and become a force to save the world in the future, I know it sounds naïve and ridiculous, but I want to take this step... No, in this world, someone has to take this step, and we can't stay within the walls for the rest of our lives, can we? ”

"I'm afraid I won't see this day anymore, but I believe that maybe Jiu Yu can, I can feel that she is very talented, far more talented than mine, if she can be a little smarter and more sensible, maybe I can still imagine that she can be a savior, but now..."

Tang shook his head at Liao Ji.

"She's still too weak, I don't know how long I can protect Jiuyou, Liao Ji, I'll talk to you so much today, in fact, I have a lot of selfishness, after all, you're the only person Jiuyou likes here, so, can I plead with you for one thing?"

"I'm really worried about Jiuyou, this stupid child, she is too easy to be taken advantage of, and I blame me for protecting her too well, so that she can only focus on practicing martial arts."

"I'm thinking about what I'd do if I'm not there one day, I'm thinking about it, and I can only think of you in the end, Liao Ji."

Speaking of the last Tang, in this middle-aged dragon race, you can see the helplessness and sustenance of her mother, Tang looked at Liao Ji, and said word by word in a very serious tone:

"If I'm really gone, can I ask you... Help me take care of her? ”
