80 Chapter 80
The Colosseum's originally somewhat empty venue was less than fifteen minutes after Moeller and them arrived, and three or four hundred adult men of the Ancient Fire Clan came in, and the scene was full of bronzed pectoral muscles and abdominal muscles, which was really spectacular, and Moeller even felt that his sensitive nose could smell a large amount of masculine male hormones in the air. When the referee's seat was also filled with several old men in feathered felt, the Colosseum officially began.
The Colosseum of the Ancient Fire Clan is not a fight between people and monsters, nor is it a battle between monsters, but an event to compete in the skills of manipulating monsters.
Moeller also learned that there was no magic contract between the warriors of the Ancient Fire Clan and their magic pets, and they tamed the magic pets by relying on their own strength, courage, wisdom and perseverance, and because there was no spiritual connection with the magic contract, if they wanted to fight freely with the demon pets, they had to go through a long run-in training.
Only teenagers like Susi will participate in the Colosseum, a total of more than a dozen bronzed-skinned teenagers participated, most of their magic pets are intermediate-level magical beasts, only the Hokage Lion of Tooth Valley and the wading leopard of Susi are high-level magical beasts, but they are still underage, and their strength is limited, only one line higher than the strength of other people's demon pets.
There are two levels in the Colosseum, and the first level is about overcoming obstacles, with a total of three obstacles. The first is a rugged and narrow passage, the participating teenagers must jump forward with their magic pets in a very short time, because the passage is very rugged, the space is not large enough, so many of the jumping routes of the teenagers and the magic pets are crossed, and if they don't cooperate well, they will collide together.
The second and third obstacles are connected: a ten-meter-wide ditch and three steel knives standing on the other side of the ditch.
Jumping out of the exit of the first obstacle will lead to a ditch, and you can only use a rope as a tool, but you must successfully cross all of your pets, while avoiding the steel knives standing directly in front of you to avoid hitting the blades directly.
Moeller felt that this first level was already very difficult, and he was looking forward to seeing the expressions of these Ancient Fire Clan boys, so he also called Patana out of his pocket, hoping that he and his demon pet could also learn from it.
The order of appearance was determined by the draw, with Suss in fourth place and Yagu in last.
The first to appear is a tall boy with leather armor deer as a demon pet, leather armor deer is a 4th order magical beast, with good bounce, the fur all over his body condenses the earth element, and his defense is even comparable to a 5th order magic shield.
At first, it was very smooth to pass through the passage, the tall boy and his demon pet jumped in the passage, and there was always a tacit understanding that one of them was one line faster or slower than the other, so as to miss the trajectory of the collision, and when they reached the exit, the two leaped out at the same time, swept above the ditch.
The leather deer's jumping ability is enough to jump over a ten-meter ditch, but it can't turn in mid-air to avoid the steel knife, and the tall boy doesn't have enough bounce power to run out halfway.
However, the tall boy jumped higher than his own pet, and when he jumped into the air and was exhausted, he was just above the leather deer, and I saw him kick on the side of the leather deer, which not only changed the direction of the leather deer's jump, so that it avoided the steel knife, but also took advantage of the power of this kick to fly diagonally and jumped from the other side of the steel knife to the shore.
"Wonderful!" Moeller applauded.
Susi pouted and said unconvinced: "Jinba's demon pet is too dominant in this level, and he doesn't even need a rope!"
Rex grabbed Moller's shoulders and stared deeply at the leather deer, muttering, "Crispy venison......"
Then two more teenagers came on the field with their own pets, but they failed one after another, one of them was the boy who used the fire pig as the pet, and the first obstacle collided with his fat pet - the pig pet really didn't have the talent to jump flexibly.
Then it was the turn of the bearded leopard, who was more than two meters long and had a navy blue fur with black markings, like a ghost in the water walking on six grounds.
The first obstacle is easy, the wading leopard moves with agility, like the shadow of Sus, and Suss is as agile as a young cheetah in jumping.
Soon reaching the exit, Suth grabbed the rope hanging from the exit and leaped out with his pet.
The juvenile wading leopard has limited strength, and Moeller knows that it can only jump seven or eight meters at most, but the explosive power of Suth is eye-catching, not only jumping five meters away, but also higher than the position of the wading leopard.
After jumping five meters, it happened to be the highest position in the air of Suth and the Wading Leopard, and in the spatial position, Suth was above the Wading Leopard, so he used his magic pet as a foothold, stepped on the back of the Wading Leopard and jumped out again.
With his own magic pet to step on, Susi not only adjusted his direction to avoid the steel knife, but also gained new strength, enough to cross the other side, but after jumping out, he was not idle, the person was still in the air, so he threw the rope in his hand towards the wading leopard that fell behind him.
The wading leopard, which was used as a stepping stone, was falling rapidly, and when the rope was thrown, it opened its mouth to hold it, and when Susi landed on the opposite bank, it was just when the tax-related leopard was about to fall into the water, and the rope between them was already straightened.
Seeing Susi standing firm in a lunge, grabbing the end of the rope with one hand and the front of the rope with the other, he shouted loudly and pulled it hard, and the leopard, which was more than two meters long, was pulled from the middle of the water to the shore by him with a rope like fishing.
"Good!" Moller stood up and cheered at the brilliant move, and even Rex, who was watching the excitement on his shoulder, was dangled by his feet, and Eriba's mouth grew in surprise.
After Sus, there were also two teenagers who successfully crossed these three obstacles, but none of them were as dazzling as his appearance, and Mo Le heard that the people of the Ancient Fire Clan around him were all talking about being worthy of being the first warrior chosen by Le Gu, and some people said that they were trained by Le Gu to be so good.
After the first level, Susi came back with a bit of smugness, his pet wading leopard Lando rubbing his legs like a big cat, but secretly glaring at each other with Patana in Moller's arms.
"Moller, this Lando is so rude, a little cub dares to laugh at my black fur, not as beautiful as it!" Patana grumbled at Moller, grinning at the wading leopard.
Moller hurriedly reassured the enraged female creature: "Patana, you are the most beautiful, don't be like a child!"
Perhaps it was because Susi was stimulated by everyone's wide praise, and Yaya, who came out with the Hokage Lion, had a gloomy face, as if he was holding back his strength.
However, after Yagu began to break through, Moller showed that he did have the strength to be proud of Sus, his movements were also very vigorous, without the slightest mud and water, and his magic pet, the reddish-brown fur lion, flew around him like a rainbow shadow, and his agility was no worse than that of Sus's wading leopard.
What's even more amazing is that when passing through the last two obstacles, Yagu didn't use the rope, but crossed the ten-meter ditch with his own strength with his own magic pet, and only relayed to each other to avoid the three steel knives.
Being able to jump ten meters with ease is the strength of an intermediate demon warrior, and in terms of strength alone, Yaya is a well-deserved leader among all the participating teenagers.
Seeing Yaya's proud appearance in the midst of everyone's exclamations, Susi clenched his fists in breathlessness, he could only jump eight meters with all his strength, this is the obvious gap!
Lando, the wading leopard, who was still triumphantly fighting with Patana, also jumped up, glaring at the Hokage lion with hostility, and purring threatening sounds in his throat. It's really annoying that it's all the same grade, the same underage, and that damn lion actually jumped farther than it!
Patana, who had just been angry, took the opportunity to laugh - cats were always better at jumping than dogs, but I didn't expect that this time the blue-skinned cat was not as far as the red-haired poodle!
The threatening sound in Lando's angry throat didn't last long before it turned into a sad whimper, and Patana, who was proudly broadcasting his victory to Moeller, saw that her opponent was angry and cried, and she was also a little stunned.
The first level passed, and only five of the dozen teenagers cleared the level, and then there was no rest, and it was the second level that greeted them, and the competition was to control the magic pet sneak.
Moeller saw a warrior of the Ancient Fire Clan standing in the center with a bow and arrow, and on the bowstring was a wooden arrow wrapped in a red cloth with an arrow.
The warriors were surrounded by a forest of boulders, and the five teenagers who had passed the first level were lurking behind the stones around the field, and within the stipulated fifteen minutes, they had to command their pets, dodge the sniper of the archers, and follow the boulder belt to successfully reach the area behind the archers, which was considered to be a pass.
In less than ten seconds of the opening, the young Jinba who took the leather deer as his demon pet made a mistake when commanding, and his leather armor deer came out of the boulder at the wrong time, just hit the archer's sight, only to hear a whoosh, the wooden arrow was like a lightning bolt through the gap of several boulders, and accurately shot the neck of the leather armor deer, even if the arrow was wrapped in cloth, the power of the arrow also shot the leather armor deer, which is known for its defense, screamed, and fell to the ground, and Jinba's competition ended at the beginning of the second level.
The other four teenagers became more cautious, in order to be able to see the archers in the field, they could only stay on the outermost part, and at the same time through guò gestures and eyes to direct their pets to keep advancing, and as the pets advanced, they would get closer and closer to the archers, and the difficulty of commanding would increase dramatically.
The magic pets hiding behind the boulders can't see the archers, and they must be prompted by their own masters to choose the best time to advance, but whether the magic pets can follow the command of the distant master at the first time, and whether they can endure the wildness and wait carefully for the right time as the time goes on. This is a great test of the trust and cooperation of both parties.
After another two minutes, a young man with a flower-faced bear as a demon pet also made a mistake, to be precise, his demon pet could not bear to rush forward, and was shot by the archer's arrow.
Not long after the start of the game, half of the participants in the competition were gone, and only three round-faced teenagers were left, including Sus, Yagu and a round-faced boy who was a petted by a stone-throwing marsupial.
Suth constantly changed positions at the outermost periphery, making sure that he could see the archer in the center of the field and his pet hiding behind the boulder at the same time, so that the archers would not reveal his whereabouts, and then deduce the location of the demon pet, every step had to be careful, and the other two teenagers did the same.
Time passed minute by minute, the whole field was silent, due to the cautious attitude of the three teenagers, they were not shot, but seeing that twelve minutes had passed, and there were still three minutes left, their progress was only halfway over.
At this moment, I saw that the round-faced young man quietly made a gesture, his magic pet stone-throwing quozer is a half-human tall golden retriever monkey, with a bag in its abdomen, not only a nursery bag, but also some stones in it for attack weapons, at this time, seeing the master's gesture, it took out an egg-sized stone from the bag on its abdomen and threw it into the distance.
"Smack!" the stone hit a boulder, and the archer, who had been preparing for a long time, shot an arrow at it, and the stone-throwing marsupial sprang out, bypassing the three boulders, hiding behind the fourth, and judging from the position, there was only one last step left to successfully break through behind the archer.
Many people showed expressions of appreciation for the round-faced boy's appearance, but more appreciative eyes were on Susi and Yagu, only to see that their two demon pets also crossed the three boulders at some point - it turned out that they had seized the opportunity of the round-faced boy to attract attention and take the opportunity to move forward, this kind of improvisation and determination was indeed worthy of admiration.
Perhaps stimulated by the behavior of the other two competitors taking advantage, the round-faced boy quickly commanded the stone-throwing quozer to throw a stone again, and the direction of the stone was actually the area where the wading leopard was located.
However, no sooner had the sarbaretal monkey emerged from behind the boulder where it was hiding than an arrow flew towards it as if it had been expected for a long time, and struck it precisely in the chest.
A clever archer can locate his target in the direction of the arrow, and the same is true for the stones thrown by the stone-throwing marsupial, and the round-faced boy uses the same strategy a second time, hoping to deceive him, which is too simple.
"Whew!"
At the same time, two figures took the opportunity to burst out of the boulder and successfully broke through the archer's defense, jumped onto the wooden platform behind him, one lion and one leopard, glaring at each other.
