Chapter 258: Gladiatorial Arena Athletic Competition
As for this kind of thing that ordinary people can think of, the little thin man who is obviously sophisticated and sleek, and must not be stupid, didn't expect it, in the end, he can only say that wealth is moving!
Enough huge profits can make anyone dizzy, especially in such a place full of dreams of making a fortune and people look like evil ghosts.
Fortunately, even in such a place, the largest proportion of the population is the grassroots civilians, whose hope for a peaceful life can always slowly repair the mess left behind by the gang fighting, so that a group of vicious gangsters will not finally destroy this trade port.
Thinking of this, the boy suddenly realized that without the protection of the Chamber of Commerce, it was his turn to think of some protective measures for the manor.
Looking at the registration point that was close at hand, the teenager decided to let this matter go for a while.
He went out this time for the first thing he had planned earlier - to make a name for himself through activities that were influential enough, and then to get an olive branch from the upper echelons.
He doesn't feel that there is any shame in being attached to other forces, after all, his family knows his own affairs, he is not a dragon arrogant destiny, wherever he goes, he never knows what it is like to fall, so he is not qualified to be pretentious, it is better to take the path that a normal person should take.
There were many paths for him to follow, and he chose one of the most influential - the gladiatorial arena competition.
Where male hormones are abundant, it is natural that there are also violent activities exclusive to men. This commercial port is full of activities like fighting matches, both openly and secretly.
The Colosseum Tournament is the only event jointly organized by 17 major chambers of commerce, and all other violent activities are unattainable. It's a tournament that takes place every few years, and it's a carnival that is unique to the region, for men, for the rich, and for the thugs. In the past few days, the eyes of the whole commercial port will focus on this gladiatorial arena, and its influence can be imagined.
At such a grand event, there is another unwritten rule - those who perform well in the competition will be favored by the major forces and have the opportunity to get an olive branch thrown by them and join their organization. In fact, this is one of the ways for those big forces to suck blood from the bottom and expand their power, and it is also the fundamental purpose of such a big event to achieve a fair recruitment strategy for all parties under their mutual checks and balances, based on some discussions. In other words, talents should be discovered together first, and then the division should be discussed.
And this is the real reason why teenagers participate in this competition. After all, based on the consensus reached by those seventeen forces, the first few major forces will not openly rob people outside the competition, but if they want to enter those ones, they can only rely on this way.
As for the escort mission, he tried to fight for it if he could.
Therefore, hearing the new news at first glance did not disrupt his original course of action.
In the corner where the number of people is relatively sparse, he wrote his name in the Colosseum column and got the number plate of the competition.
There are many ways to compete in the Colosseum, and beast fighting is one of them. As the name suggests, it is a battle between man and beast, and even against Warcraft, and compared to other competitions, the number of viewers is larger, and the rewards for winning are more generous. It's just relative, and the risk of disability and death is greater. After all, people will stop, but beasts won't, and Warcraft won't. Because of this, there were many people watching and few people signing up, so that later, the organizers of the competition simply listed this column as a performance project, and most of the participants were prisoners and slaves under their own hands.
However, from this point of view, those who come to sign up on their own every year are paid special attention by major forces. It was as if just now, when he wrote his name, he could notice that several eyes suddenly turned from all directions, all looking him up and down.
In this way, the probability of success will be greater.
As for why he has such confidence. First, based on those memories, there are not many people in this world who have the same nightmare start and hell experience as themselves, let alone those trials and tribulations of surviving alone for a long time in the wilderness. Moreover, with the memory of the frost wolf, he asked himself that no one had such profound experience in dealing with different beasts and monsters.
Tenacious will, tenacious body, strong strength, deep experience, these are the magic weapons he uses to be countless steps ahead of others. He never thought of this world as a rigid read-bar battle game, and the Great Knight realm was considered a high level in the game, but it was far from enough to be his only reliance.
It's no wonder that the registration process ended quickly, and the first day of the tournament was about to begin. Therefore, these people who had just signed up simply followed behind the person in charge of the registration work and walked together to a huge building not far away, after all, they were happy to be spectators for a few days before it was their turn to play in a few days.
The boy felt that he also needed to observe and observe, so as to finalize his next strategy, so he followed the increasing flow of people and walked into this huge object.
It is a circle shaped like the Colosseum in ancient Rome, and is divided into several areas in the shape of a fan. There is a ring on part of the field directly in front of each sector. And in the very center of the whole field, that is, in the very center of the building, is a huge ring. Directly above it, more than a dozen diamond-shaped spars with the height of several people and their brilliance were suspended in the air.
According to word of mouth, this is the work of a wizard in the City of Chaos, which can be used to enclose the arena for the semi-finals and finals to prevent the aftermath of the battle of the most powerful people from affecting the spectators, and on the other hand, it can create a huge three-dimensional battle picture in the sky for the whole audience to see.
There have been many people who have fantasized about making a name for themselves in this way, but only a few have been able to achieve this vision in the end.
At this point, the boy didn't think much about it. I choose a contestant who must have enough self-knowledge, otherwise he will lose his life because of a moment of arrogance, what is needed is not the desire to stand in the central ring, but the confidence to save his life and the determination to stop in time.
He randomly picked a civilian seat slightly forward and waited quietly for the first game to begin.
At this time, the entire gladiatorial arena has become more and more noisy because of its popularity, and the blood that has been sprinkled on the ring in the past is also wafting out more and more fishy smells in the tumbling heat.
The crowd became more agitated, and soon the atmosphere reached its peak when the tournament hosts stepped into the center of the ring and their figures were magnified and appeared in front of everyone.
