Section 553 - Challenger

At the same time, the first round of group elimination battles that opened up twenty duel areas made all the participants experience a gladiatorial experience with extremely efficient and tragic battles.

The ants who were lucky, but whose strength was not at the top of the rank, were eliminated one after another, and they ended up dying.

Two and a half days later, only 1,327 people qualified for the second round, except for those who were ruthlessly eliminated because they were seriously injured or even died of their injuries, except for those who managed to kill or inflict heavy damage on their opponents.

This qiē is really just the beginning.

In the second round, the organizers of the gladiatorial tournament adjusted the rhythm of the process, no longer fighting against each other in 20 gladiatorial areas at the same time, but changing it to 10 battles together.

The increase in the size of the duel area not only provides more room for maneuver, but also adds a lot of variables to the final result.

Contestants with high mobility and ranged attacks, such as knights, archers, and mages, will have an increasingly obvious advantage, and the combat will become more exciting.

When Lin Mo walked into the gladiatorial arena again, his opponent was a noble son from the suburbs of Lingjing, who was the son-in-law of the family, but had no inheritance rights, and could only rely on his own strength to earn a future.

No. 748 VS No. 2317.

"I'm in a good mood today, and if you surrender now, I can consider letting you go. ”

This noble son with four-leaf clover as his family coat of arms did not underestimate him like Lin Mo's previous opponent, he directly pulled out his long sword neatly, leaned over slightly and began to gather momentum, his left arm was crossed in front of his chest, and his right hand was held diagonally on the bracer, making a gesture of attack and defense one after another.

A slight burning sensation in the air began to dissipate, Lin Mo's opponent in this field obviously had the talent of fire elemental affinity, but the battle qi level was not high. It is not enough to form visible war inflammation through the surface of the skin.

If it were a normal time, most of them would take out a Type 92 combat pistol and directly kill and pull it down, but now, the only thing Lin Mo can rely on is the two-handed knight's sword in his hand.

"Do it! you've got too much!"

Ran into a verbose guy again, is it showing off his superiority, Lin Mo combined the Mo knife mode as usual, the scabbard was connected to the blade, like a special spear with the same length as the blade and the handle.

The blade pointed to the ground, and Lin Mo dragged the weapon in his hand diagonally, and deceived him first to fit it strongly.

The small broken steps under his feet are sharp, but the sprint speed is getting faster and faster.

"Die!"

Toggle up gestures. The noble children roared violently, steadily facing and pointing their swords at their opponents.

The audience who paid attention to this duel area outside the arena shouted rhythmically, and the moment when they were about to decide whether they were about to die or die has always been the climax they are most concerned about.

Bite!~

The two figures staggered in the blink of an eye.

Appearing in Lin Mo's hand behind the nobleman's son, the long sword was already pointing at the sky.

"748 is dead!"

"No, it's No! It's 2317!"

Some of the spectators who were watching this duel area were the first to break the silence and shouted.

"Uh!~" The noble child of No. 2317 made a strange sound in his throat, and the whole person was split in two without warning, along with the weapon in his hand. Crashing to the ground, blood gushing out like no money, soon soaking a large chunk of the ground.

Lin Mo took the time to put away his sword. Not even interested in turning around.

With just one blow, even people with weapons were killed in two sections on the spot, and the power of the Tang Dynasty Mo knife was even a war horse, not to mention that he was just a swordsman in light armor.

Suddenly, without warning, a sharp arrow flew in. Shoot at Lin Mo who was about to leave in the duel area at a lightning speed.

When it was too late, the dragon knight drew his sword like lightning, and the two-handed knight's big sword came out of its sheath. With the help of the waist muscles, the spine was like a big gun with enough strength, and a huge force erupted between twisting and twisting, and the hand swiped fiercely, and at the same time slid half a step.

Phew!~

The sharp arrows that had not diminished their momentum almost grazed Lin Mo's body and shot into the ground, reaching a depth of more than three inches, and the shaft of the Ling Yu arrow was still trembling.

Although he did not have the "Dragon General" tactical armor on his body, Lin Mo was still able to judge the direction of the arrow's trajectory with experience, and he looked vigilantly at the other duel area diagonally opposite, about a hundred steps away.

A young archer was raising his yellow-horned bow in his hand and making a false shooting gesture, and the arrow seemed to be just a provocation.

Behind him, the opponent who seemed to have been shot like a hedgehog had already turned into a silent corpse, with a sharp arrow inserted in the temple, eyes, nose, mouth, throat and lower abdomen, and the blade was faintly penetrated directly from the other side.

"Hmph!~ Look for death!"

Lin Mo snorted coldly from his nostrils, keeping the other party's appearance firmly in his heart, if he had the opportunity to fight next time, he would never be merciful.

Ignoring the murderous gaze, the young archer walked around his dueling area in a swagger, occasionally raising his bow to the cheers of the audience who supported him.

This scene was just a small episode in the gladiatorial arena, and the soldiers who maintained order and the organizer staff who ruled on the scene turned a blind eye to it, and wandered in the gladiatorial arena, because they were careless and deserved to die.

The second round of gladiatorial battles was killed again, and Lin Mo finally fell into the eyes of some people, if the first game could barely be regarded as luck, then the second game was undoubtedly strength.

Not all contestants have to go through the knockout round, a group of well-known fighters and spellcasters will directly participate in the late-stage event under the arrangement of the organizer, for these masters and strong players with obvious strength, there is no need to bully those weak in the first and second rounds, it is better to put the real strength in the most exciting stage.

"The 315th Gladiatorial Tournament surprised newcomers, killing opponents in two seconds, and the potential is immeasurable. ”

"Blonde hair and silver eyes, which noble son is it? ”

"The latest release of the combat power ranking, the strength of the number 748 contestants is expected to enter the top 500. ”

Gossip printed on shoddy vellum is everywhere, and there are always well-informed people who like to screen out the list of contestants and gladiatorial results for the most promising newcomers, and they are often doing the work of headhunters, agents or brokers......

Gladiatorial tournaments allow for early notice of withdrawal, which gives many families or wealthy merchants the opportunity to recruit, but few are willing to withdraw early despite the lucrative prize money and higher level of solicitation to advance to the next round.

As soon as he walked out of the gladiatorial arena, several men and even women surrounded Lin Mo.

"This lord, the top twenty Meiluo Chamber of Commerce in the empire needs a captain of the guard, as long as you are willing to join us, all meals and lodging, one hundred gold coins per month. ”

"The Imperial Wind Chasing Eagle Legion welcomes you to become one of us, and you will be given a set of stainless steel armor and a hundred refining weapons when you report for duty, and if you pass the assessment, you can be promoted to battalion commander on the spot, leading at least three hundred soldiers. ”

"The 'Red Lion' Countess Xia Ji of the Bavoya family would like to ask you to be her guardian knight, a young and heroic warrior, a beautiful and kind countess, is looking forward to your protection!"

As long as a little calculation, it can be concluded that after the second round of elimination, the number of remaining contestants should be about five hundred, which can basically be regarded as the elite talents of the empire.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't get in the way of my young master, don't look at your virtue, send beggars?"

The two high-ranking warriors, the two royal secret guards Mad Sparrow and Sword Eagle, who were cameo bodyguards, effortlessly squeezed through the crowd for Lin Mo, and after the three of them got into the waiting carriage, they left behind a group of recruiters.

His departure was not discouraged by the solicitors, and there were other contestants who were coming out of the dim passages, and there were still more options.

"Lord Morin, it seems that you are very welcoming, both on and off the field!"

Xiu Yu, who was waiting in the carriage, obviously knew that as soon as Lin Mo had solved his opponent, he was provoked and invited to fight by an archer-
