Volume 1 Dream Walking Dust Chapter 69 The Colosseum
Follow Dia the butler through a few avenues and come into view of a huge circular Colosseum on the east side of the city of Zachariah.
In the distance, you can see the main church of the "Cult of the Earth", which extends from the left and right sides of the church into two sections of the cloister, and the wall extends upwards, several stories high, forming the Colosseum, which is magnificent and solemn and intimate. These designs are probably a symbol of the earth gods embracing the land, showing the worship of the gods.
Directly above the Colosseum, there was a huge barrier supported by spiritual power, glowing with a light golden light.
Speaking of "fighting beasts", a hot scene appeared in Bai Lianzhou's mind. The group of them walked in with Dia through the small door next to them and sat directly on the guest seat with the widest view.
The Colosseum was twice the size of a small square, with a floor covered with fine yellow sand and surrounded by spectator seats, which stretched diagonally upward. The table was full of all kinds of spiritualists, but the most of them were the spiritualists of the Euroti Empire, followed by the two countries of Wind and Fire, and only five of them came from the Violet Empire.
"Look, the one who is preparing to play right now is the Great Spiritual Envoy of our Euroti Empire, named Heluka. ”
As Dia pointed out, a man with a swagger walked up at the other end of the Colosseum.
The man's expression looked a little cynical, but the sharp light in his eyes was inadvertently revealed. Her dark and thick hair was tied up very high, braided into small braids, and tied at the back of her head.
He was wearing a very luxurious dark purple spiritual robe, with a white shirt casually set inside, and two buttons on the neckline, and he could faintly see the tattoos all over his chest, extending along the texture of the muscles to behind the ears, and it was impossible to tell what the pattern was.
He held a golden chain in his hand, and at the other end was a huge griffin, the legs of which were more than a man's height. The whole body is black, the hair is supple, and if you look closely, there are dots of spiritual light. The griffon's belly was topped by a pair of wings, spread out more than ten meters wide, and the wings at the ends of the wings were also dark purple, matching his master.
Dia explained, "This Great Emissary named Heluka represents the most dominant spirit race in our Empire. During the National Day, there is a large flow of people, and it is inconvenient for the patriarch of the Spirit Clan to appear in such a noisy place, so in order to play an exemplary role, the Great Spirit Envoy will do the work for him. ”
"His spirit beast is so magnificent, it would be nice if he could compete with Cherry-kun!" Gwendrin praised with a smile.
Dia pointed behind Heluka and continued, "His spirit animal is Griffin, a griffon from the Mir Meadows. The Colosseum had been open for two days, and all the contestants had come to challenge the griffin, but most of them were unsophisticated magicians who had been eliminated before they even saw Griffin. ”
Before he could finish speaking, the huge griffin stepped on the ground with its forepaws, shook the mane on its neck majestically, and let out a low roar in its throat. It circled the field in a majestic circle, its gaze firmly fixed on the entrance at the other end.
Seeing this, the audience immediately gave the warmest applause and screams.
"Looks like this griffin is the gold medalist here. Featherfish couldn't help but applaud along with the jubilant atmosphere in the arena.
"Looking down at you, you look like a high-level spiritual master of the Violet Empire, and to tell you the truth, there are few people in this world who have seen real ancient spirit beasts, and they don't know how powerful their spiritual power is. A spirit beast of the level of Griffin can almost be compared to an ancient spirit beast. Dia introduced.
"According to what you say, it is naturally invincible and invincible. Melty chuckled.
The door at the other end of the arena was open, and a burly man came up, in the prime of life, and several spirit envoys were immediately attracted to the man.
The man wore little clothing, only armor made of steel at the joints and in his intimate areas. His muscles were bare in the dust, and there was a terrifying scar on his chest.
Perhaps the earth spirit envoy blessed by the god of the earth was a bohemian character, and he did not hesitate to declare war on Hluka.
The spirit beast behind the man was a huge two-headed war wolf, the trunk of this wolf was no different from other wolves, but two necks were separated from the neck, the wolf heads were side by side, and the four round wolf eyes glared at the griffin Griffin viciously.
Gwendrin looked at the stout man and said uncertainly, "Based on the perception of spiritual power alone, that warrior should be at least a mid-level psychic master, right?" ”
As the girl spoke, the stout man who had just walked up and had not yet settled down had loosened the chains in his hand, and seemed to be well versed in the rules here.
The two-headed war wolf took a few steps forward, and suddenly felt the surge of spiritual power under the yellow sand. Under the surface of the ground directly in front of its wolf claws, a sharp stone suddenly burst out of the soft sand, followed by a few loud "bangs", and five or six huge stones nearly half a meter high pierced out of the ground, forcing the two-headed war wolf back more than ten steps.
Griffin the griffon seemed to be swearing to lordship, and when it was forced to retreat back to its original position, the clod of dirt was able to be contained.
"What a lovely little guy. Hluka lowered her head and laughed sarcastically.
Before he could finish speaking, the two-headed wolf that had just retreated behind his master suddenly stiffened, and the two wolf heads split to the sides, and a huge rock grew out of its neck, crushing its body in half.
Feather Ray covered his eyes: "I thought that the spirit technique of the earth element was magnificent, but I didn't expect that the attack method was subtle and hidden, and the power could be so strong......"
The wolf's abdomen swelled, and the stone pierced out of the base of his thigh like a sharp needle, poking into the sand. If it weren't for the blood on the spike, anyone would have thought it was a half-man-tall stone sculpture. In an instant, the wolf's legs were like two pillars cut off from the waist, and only two feet were intact -
It stands in such an eerie posture that it is creepy to watch.
Griffin lunged forward, the massive lion's muzzle snatching up the wolf's body and throwing it into the air, and after a grief-stricken howl, the fleshy body fell to the ground.
The three envoys couldn't help but exclaim, but they were quickly drowned out by the thunderous applause and screams of the audience.
"Just now I wanted Cherry-kun to go up and compare with him, I think it's better to forget it now......" Rin Night's Adam's apple moved up and down, and fear made him swallow subconsciously, "This griffin kills beasts without blinking, I'm afraid that I've been crawling in this Colosseum for many years, Cherry-kun is so cute, I can't be persecuted by it." ”
"Bai Lianzhou, you ...... What's wrong with you?" Melt asked in a cold voice.
Everyone looked in the direction of Bai Lianzhou, this guy was already trembling like chaff, and he grabbed the dissolving spirit master's robe and blindfolded him, and Master Ren didn't let go no matter how he dragged it.
This idiot...... The courage is not as big as that of a little girl. Melty sighed.
The man picked up the wolf's carcass and bowed to Hluka before exiting the arena from the entrance. Hluka bowed to the crowd with his arms outstretched. Griffin's wings spread out, circled over the arena, and landed majestically on the ground.
The audience applauded and whistled one after another, and many people even began to sing songs to celebrate the victory of the king of beasts.
"This two-headed wolf was killed in an instant by Griffin the griffon, right?" Featherfish was slightly surprised, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"You haven't seen Griffin's game before, are you? It's not surprising at all, Dear Miss Spiritualist," Dia nodded, and continued: "All the spirits that came here today have gone through layers of duels, and the one who can compete against Griffin Griffin is already the best, but the disparity in strength is too great, and there is no suspense in the game. ”
"Clan...... Sister, I want to go up and try it. Gwendrin immediately changed his tune and tugged at the featherfish's sleeve.
"Absolutely. Feather nodded in agreement, then turned to Dia and asked, "Mr. Dia, what are your requirements for participating here? ”
Dia stood up and bowed slightly to the feathered fish, and said briskly: "If you directly challenge Griffin the griffon, please wait a while, and I'll ask." ”
Seeing Dia's figure far away, Rin Ye immediately anxiously tugged at Gwendrin's arm and asked, "When did you have your own spirit beast?" ”
"I didn't do it!" Gwendrin lowered his voice and said with a playful smile, "Please, with the help of our Feather Patriarch's Phoenix, am I still afraid of his little griffin Griffin?"
"Hey, it's comparable to an ancient spirit beast, it's not a joke, what if you get hurt?"
"I think Gwendlin is pretty sure. Bai Lianzhou lowered his voice and said seriously: "After all, both of them are great spirit envoys, and the attributes of the two countries are not mutually reinforcing, so it's really hard to say who wins and who loses." ”
"Well, you have a point. Griffin was invincible because there was no one at the level of an emissary to declare war on him. Rin Ye nodded in agreement, and hurriedly leaned over to Feather Ray and asked, "Sister Feather Ray, why don't you lend the Ice Phoenix to Gwendrin for use, and then the prize money and spirit beast crown will belong to our Violet Empire!"
Rongmei glanced at him lightly and asked, "Why don't you call Shi Niang?"
"I'm afraid you'll hit me, Master, you're so bad!" Rin Ye saw a wicked smile on Rongmei's face, and scratched her head embarrassedly, "That's ...... Then should I be called Shi Niang, or should I be called the Yu Yu Patriarch?"
"Okay, since you're out to play, everyone has to be happy, so naturally you won't be distracted. Feather Ray laughed softly, and turned to Gwendrin and said, "That griffin is old and spicy, you have to be careful, don't be competitive, be careful of getting hurt." ”
"Hehe, what are you afraid of!" Rin Ye leaned over and hugged Yu Yu's shoulders with a big grin, "Master, don't worry, what about the opinion of the last challenge, it is from me and Bai Lianzhou, if Gwendlin is defeated, let my master compensate you for another phoenix!"
"Dreaming. Rong Mei hurriedly vetoed, "Also, take it down." ”
Rin Ye blinked mischievously, turned around and hugged Rong Mei's shoulder, and said, "Master, don't be so stingy!"
"Do you really think I won't be angry with you?" Rong Mei tugged at Rin Ye's ears and dragged him in front of him, "If you lose, take out all the thirty gold coins you hid under the bed, and honor your master." ”
"Division...... Master: You, you, you...... How do you know that I have money under the bed!" Rin Ye was already pinched so that his ears were red, and when he heard Rong Mei's words, his whole face was like a tomato, and he was red to the base of his neck, "Ouch, good master, don't drag it, if you drag it again, I'll have to find an elf apprentice!"
Laughing and playing, Dia had already run over in three steps and two steps, gasping and said, "It's the end of your own challenge time, you are the last spirit master to appear today, if you are ready, you can play now, please come with me." ”
"No need! this girl jumps down from here!" said Gwendlin, a smile raised.
