Chapter 40: The Colosseum (3)
The jackal was a spirit beast, with two rows of sharp teeth as sharp as steel, and this bite immediately broke Zhuang Siping's cervical vertebrae, and blood splashed everywhere. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhuang Siping's eyes protruded, his eyes rolled white, and he immediately lost his breath, and his body suddenly softened.
The jackal smelled the bloody gas, and his ferocity was revealed, and he took another bite, biting off Zhuang Siping's head and gnawing frantically.
Some of the soft-hearted members of the audience have already left their seats. The cage guard lifted half of the pork, opened a small door from the outside, and threw it into the cage. The jackal was accustomed to this kind of feeding, so he abandoned Zhuang Siping's corpse and pounced on the pork to eat it. After eating for a while, his body suddenly stagnated, and he fell to the ground, snoring and sleeping.
This is the means of the Colosseum, the pork mixed with sweat medicine is fed to the spirit beast to sleep, to curb its murder, and to facilitate its movement. After confirming that he was asleep, four wrestlers lifted him out of the cage and back to the pen. Then someone cleaned the cage, cleaned up the scene, and notified the family to handle the funeral.
In the audience, Ruan Zun touched his head, only to feel that the back of his neck was still cold. This was the first time he had seen a spirit beast killing, and the scene was so bloody that he couldn't help but be uneasy all the time.
A fourteen-year-old boy, no matter what big scenes he has experienced, is still afraid of death.
However, after being uneasy, Ruan Zun still gritted his teeth. That's right, indeed, this kind of killing on the occasion of life and death gave him a particularly strong spiritual shock, very strong, no less than facing the Wenchuan earthquake. If you fight and cultivate in such an environment, how dare you have the slightest distraction, don't care, and take it lightly.
When he returned to Steward Chen, he was fanning the wind with a mask, but it was not hot, just to hide his slight panic. Before he could speak, Steward Chen glanced at him, "Scared?"
"Nope. Ruan Zun said forcefully.
"Not yet? You're sweating all over your face. Steward Chen was unequivocal.
"I came from the cage, and I was in a hurry, and I was hot. Ruan Zun said.
"How pale and pale ...... that face?"
"You take care of me!" Ruan Zun was a little annoyed, "Let's talk about it first, when are you going to arrange the first beast fight for me?"
Steward Chen looked at his young face and sighed, "There is something I didn't tell you just now, that is, if you are not a last resort, don't participate in this kind of beast fighting. Just like just now, with the strength of Nazhuang Siping, after a hard battle, he can win. But the jackal also had an accident, it should have been accumulating strength on weekdays, and it was suddenly released in the fight, and it was about to be promoted to the rank. ”
"Rank up?"
"It is from a first-order spirit beast to a second-order spirit beast in the fight. It usually suppressed the representation of the advancement, and suddenly broke out in the fight. Not to mention anything else, this wisdom alone is already comparable to human beings. Steward Chen was quite emotional.
"Some pedants say that human beings are also descendants of spirit beasts in ancient times, what do you say about spirit beasts, orcs are the ancestors of human beings, hehe, since they are ancestors, they are naturally very smart. Ruan Zun said with a smile.
"Then do you still insist on participating?" asked Steward Chen.
"Participate!" Ruan Zun gritted his teeth and insisted, "Moreover, I hope you will arrange it for me today!"
A spirit beast, right in front of him, brutally killed a spirit priest. This tragic scene, like a movie, has been floating in my mind, making myself think about it from time to time and be frightened from time to time. This emotion must be suppressed, and it cannot be taken home or brought back to dreams. The most effective way to solve this horror is to kill a spirit beast with your own hands. In this way, fear can be suppressed.
"Are you sure you don't regret it?"
"Of course, I'll sign a life and death certificate right away!"
Steward Chen was silent and nodded, "Courage is commendable, it's good." There is a big battle in the afternoon, then I will arrange one for you before the big battle, a first-order spirit beast, and it is definitely carefully checked that there is no risk of breaking out and advancing to the ranks, and the combat power is extremely average. Yourself, be prepared. ”
Ruan Zun responded to this fight and signed a life and death certificate. Once the life and death certificate is signed, you can get ten taels of gold. Then, as long as you kill the spirit beast yourself, the corpse of the spirit beast is all your own. Moreover, 10% of the profit won by the Colosseum dealer on the opening market is also his.
The opponent is still a jackal, but not the one just now, a weak, carefully examined piggyal. Steward Chen repeatedly assured him that this was only the weakest breeding spirit beast, and it might be even worse than the strength of a human junior spirit master.
Chi Zhi was like this, the height it stood there was almost as tall as Ruan Zun. Since it was his first time participating in the beast fight, Steward Chen took special care of it, and Ruan Zun could observe it outside the animal cage for an hour.
This is a very important benefit. In this hour, you can understand the shape, habits, vital points, and behavioral characteristics of the jackal in more detail. Ruan Zun even simulated the tactic of using the Suppression Technique to immobilize him for three seconds and attack the vital point at a critical moment countless times in his mind.
Although the Void Pacification Heavenly Master said that the Suppression Technique, the Immortal Sword, and the Shadow Pendant should not be used until the last resort. But for the current Ruan Zun, every shot is a last resort.
The temporary announcement of the fight was quickly issued. Ruan Zun's fight was not famous because he was not famous, so he naturally encountered a cold scene. Until the time of the incense stick before the start of the fight, there were only fifteen or sixteen guests who came in.
Ruan Zun checked his equipment again. Leather armor, leather boots, and fine iron swords made of Lingye cow leather are all offensive and defensive equipment. All other belongings are placed in an iron cabinet outside the venue and locked.
Man enters the cage first and waits. The wait was not long, but it was difficult. Many people cherish this time as the last period of their lives. Ruan Zun carefully recalled the essentials and formulas of the town recipe in his mind, and recalled the spiritual skills of the White Deer Spirit Academy, which he had practiced very, very solidly.
Then, after making sure that everything was in precise thought, he began to force his mind to be empty, and to wait.
Steward Chen took his hands and stood at the back of the audience, not knowing what he was thinking in his eyes. After a while, he called a fellow and whispered, "Go to the betting place and tell them to use the gold in my box to buy that young man, Ruan Xiaoer, to win, and bet fifty taels of gold." ”
"But steward, now the odds are one to four, and most of the people who buy spirit beasts win. The guy reminded. Affected by the last game when the demon beast killed the spirit man, this opponent is a novice rookie, and everyone tends to win the spirit beast.
"You know, you do what I say. Steward Chen said.
The dude bet went.
"I hope I'm not bad at it. Steward Chen said lightly.
The sword had been drawn from its scabbard and held in its hand with a glowing black light. It is a good sword, although it is only a fine iron long sword suitable for a scholar-level spiritual warrior, it must also be very careful in casting. Steward Chen's preferential treatment of himself even took this into account, which made Ruan Zun a little moved.
A low howl was heard not far away. Then a fishy wind struck.
At the other end of the cage, the door of the passage opened, and a huge gray-yellow jackal with a few black spots on its body got in, stopped opposite Ruan Zun, and let out a provocative howl.
"It's you!" Ruan Zun thought to himself, and with a loud shout, he stepped forward with a sword!
