Chapter 81: The Arena

The next few days seemed to be very busy, and instead of going in and out of the mansions of various princes and nobles, he received all kinds of visitors in his mansion. Savin and Eliza had nothing to do, so they wandered around the city of Thorin under the guidance of Exewin. The prosperity and liveliness of Thorin City stunned the two hillbillies, Savin and Eliza, who had thought that Valency City would be as lively as Valency City, but when they arrived in Sorin City, they realized how lonely they were, with a variety of shops, endless streams of people, street jugglers, and mercenaries from all over the continent, everything they could not imagine before, this is the center of the human world.

The descriptions of the human world that Savin and Eliza had heard from their teachers before were less than one percent of them here, especially when the two of them saw the Great Church of Light, they couldn't believe their eyes, the magnificent huge dome and the exquisite sculptures all over the building, all of them were so exquisite, and the human race was able to create such a great building, which made other races with ancient history have to admire the ability of human beings. What surprised the two even more was that the huge magic tower behind the Great Sacred Hall, which was dozens of meters high, went straight into the sky, and when people stood in front of the tower, they couldn't help but feel so small.

Sawan wondered what it was like inside the Great Sanctuary, but the two large black stone doors were kept tightly closed, making it difficult to see inside. Exewin explained: "The Great Church is only open to the general public in January and September, when the Great Sacrifice is held, and it is impossible for ordinary people to enter it. ”

"What's in there?" asked Savan curiously.

"Actually, there is nothing, just some sculptures. Exsewin sneered disdainfully.

"What's sacred, that's weird!" Savin couldn't figure out what these humans were doing, what was there to be sacred......

Exewin pouted and said, "Hmph, it's just a mystery......"

Savin and Eliza looked at each other in bewilderment.

"What's in that tower?" asked Eliza, pointing to the towering magical tower.

"You can count on the place, it's the place where the real material is, legend has it that there are countless books in the tower, and there is an enchantment center that protects the entire city, in short, it is a forbidden place, and even the king cannot enter it except for the people of the Magic Guild. Exewin said.

"Not even the king can enter......" Eliza murmured, "Is it possible that the king will be restricted as well?"

"Of course, the king is only a mortal, and the magician is the one who has mastered supernatural powers, and even the king would not dare to provoke the magician easily. Otherwise......" said Axevin, swiping his hand across his neck.

Eliza's eyes widened when she heard this, and she asked in surprise, "Isn't that magician more powerful than the king, why doesn't the magician rule the country?"

Exewin shook her head, the two children really didn't know anything, she could only answer briefly: "Although the magic guild has great power, it is also inseparable from the support of the secular society, otherwise it will be difficult for magicians to obtain so many offerings, it can be said that they are interdependent with each other, now you understand, right?"

Exewin sighed and said, "Forget it, you don't have to understand this. Let's go, I'll take you to see the arena. ”

As soon as it came to the arena, Sawin immediately came to his senses, and heard all kinds of rumors about the arena from the earl's mouth before, which made Sawan full of curiosity about this place, where a group of people can compete in force, and they can also get supreme honors, which deeply stimulates the aggressive factor in the bones of the dragon clan.

The Grand Arena of Thorin City is famous throughout the continent, firstly because the arena is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of spectators, and secondly, because this arena is one of the very few arenas where water battles can be conducted, which cannot but be said to be an extremely elaborate design. The Colosseum is located not far from the royal palace, the royal palace of Thorin City is located on the hill in the middle of the city, the entire royal palace complex is up the hillside, no matter where you are in the city, as long as you look up, you can see the majestic and towering royal palace, and the Grand Colosseum is located on the west side of the royal palace, as long as you stand on the west side of the royal palace, you can look down on the entire large arena from top to bottom.

Before the three of them had reached the front of the Colosseum, they heard a loud cheer, and there were noticeably more pedestrians on the road, and the road, which was large enough for four carriages to run in parallel, was crowded with difficulty. Sawan noticed that the passers-by along the road were all excited, foaming at the mouth and talking loudly, and some of them kept gesturing with their hands when they were excited, as if the people around them were showing a kind of fanaticism.

Puzzled, Savin asked Exewin, "What's going on with these people, they all look excited?"

Exewin explained: "It's game day, and these idle guys are busy betting money. ”

"Huh, gambling money!" Sawan asked in surprise, "can you still gamble in the arena?"

"Of course, if you can't gamble money, how can they have such great energy, you don't know people too well, it's human nature to gamble, there is no one who is not good at gambling. Exewin's tone was distinctly contemptuous.

Sawin disagreed with Exewin's statement, arguing: "No, I haven't seen the head of the regiment gamble, he's not a gambler." ”

Exewin smiled: "He doesn't like to gamble, but he likes to gamble his life, mercenaries are people who gamble with their lives, aren't you?"

"This ......" Sawan was speechless for a while, this female elf's mouth is really powerful, Sawan is not an opponent no matter what she says, but in her heart she feels that it doesn't seem to be the case.

The three of them did not easily squeeze through the crowd, and finally arrived at the square in front of the arena, where they saw people gathering in groups and discussing the upcoming game enthusiastically. Exewin didn't seem to want to go in, and led the two around the original arena, and then said, "Alright, let's go back." ”

"Hey, aren't we going in?" asked Savan disappointed.

"What are you doing in there? I don't like to watch gladiatorial matches, it's all bloody killings, it's stupid!" said Exewin coldly.

"But we want to go in and have a look!" said Savan angrily.

"It's like a child...... "Exevin sighed, "don't worry, the Count will bring you another day." ”

"It's okay today anyway, let's go in and have a look. Savan refused to give up and continued.

At this moment, a few disheveled guys quietly leaned over, and when they saw Exsewin and Eliza, both of them were beautiful beauties of the country, they immediately became lustful and surrounded them with a hippie smile. One of the guys said in a funny tone: "The two beauties want to go in and watch the gladiatorial competition, why don't you come with us, we have a special seat." ”

Exewin knew at a glance that these were local hooligans, and immediately frowned, and said coldly: "If you don't want to die, get out!"

"Little girl, speak politely, don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink, I'll make you can't eat and walk around!" said the gangsters as they wanted to reach out and grab the second daughter.

Axevin raised his eyebrows and was about to pull out the saber at his waist, when suddenly he heard a scream, and a thug suddenly flew up in the air and flew out. The female elf looked back, only to see that it was Sawin who punched the thugs out of the way, she suddenly felt a big head, the reason why she didn't take them into the arena was because she was afraid of causing trouble, but she didn't expect to dodge it.

As soon as a few thugs saw that their companions had been beaten, they immediately scolded and started to move, these gangsters were all local scoundrels, and ordinary people had to take a detour when they saw them, and no one wanted to be tainted with bad luck. Where did Savin know this, when he saw them move his hands and feet, he immediately became angry, and he punched him without even thinking about it. Where are ordinary people who are Savan's opponents, he still has mercy on his subordinates, otherwise that gangster would already be a dead man at this time.

"Bang bang" two more sounds, one of the two gangsters flew into the air, the other lay on the ground, the others saw that Sawin was not easy to provoke, and they couldn't beat it, so they began to shout at the top of their throats: "Beat someone! Someone is killing!" This shout immediately attracted the attention of the surroundings, there were many idle people in the square, not to mention that this was at the gate of the arena, all of them were fanatical gladiatorial lovers, hundreds of people surrounded them in the blink of an eye, and the scene was suddenly in danger of detonating.

Exewin had planned to leave with the two of them, but the people around him were gathering more and more, and it was impossible to leave. At the critical moment, Exewin suddenly thought of a way, she pulled the arms of the two of them and said, "Follow me." ”

The three of them tried to push away the crowd and ran towards the arena without looking back, and some of the good deeds kept shouting: "Don't let them run!" During the pushing, the clothes of Savin and the others were torn, and if they didn't move fast enough, they didn't know what the consequences would be.

Sawen and Eliza had never experienced this kind of scene before, and as she ran away, she thought to herself, "What's the matter with these people, why are they so aggressive?"

The three of them rushed to the entrance of the arena in one go, and a big man with his hands on his waist blocked the way: "Buy a ticket!"

Exewin was prepared, took out a few gold coins as quickly as he could, threw them into the big man's hand, and said, "No need to look for it." ”

The big man smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your patronage!" As he spoke, he threw three wooden cards towards Exewin.

The three of them took the wooden card and rushed into the arena in a panic, at this time more than 100 people chased after them noisily, but when they saw the big men guarding the door, they all stopped.
