"Go in and take a look!"
Gladiators were an indispensable and important element in slave society.
Unexpectedly, the Red Fortress also moved out this element.
The arena is exciting.
But who cares about the sorrow of the times in the arena?
Li Zijia did not refuse, she was indeed a little curious.
Tickets to the Arena are very cheap and only charge water.
Each person only needs 100ml of water.
It doesn't seem like a lot, but listening to the roaring sounds in the arena, you know that there are a lot of people inside.
Zhou Qiang and Li Zijia knew at first glance that they were not ordinary people.
Being clean and white is enough to make people feel inferior compared to others. How can such a person be a simple character in the end of the world?
"Boss, you can purchase the VIP area."
“It’s up front, has good sight lines, and is much cleaner and sanitary to be around.”
"Each person only needs a bottle of 550ml mineral water."
An extraordinary person who collected the tickets said with respect on his face.
Zhou Qiang nodded.
Two bottles of water are nothing to Zhou Qiang.
On this trip, Zhou Qiang specially carried a backpack in order to disguise his storage space.
With the cover of a backpack, there is no need to worry about being suspected when taking out supplies.
He took out two bottles of mineral water from his backpack and handed them to the other party.
The extraordinary person who collected the tickets was not surprised that Zhou Qiang could take out two bottles of water. He unscrewed them familiarly, then poured a drop of each out, tested it with a small instrument, and after confirming that it was drinkable drinking water, he collected the water. He stood up and handed the two golden plaques to Zhou Qiang.
Zhou Qiang took it and tossed it in his hand. It turned out to be made of gold.
Each piece is at least 50 grams.
Good guy.
Gee, the price of this gold in the apocalypse is unbelievable.
Two bottles of water can be exchanged for 100 grams of gold. Equivalent to the price of modern earth, 100 grams of gold costs at least more than 50,000 yuan.
But here, the ticket for two bottles of water comes with a gold brand.
More than 10,000 times the return.
"Perhaps we can exchange supplies with the survivors for some gold?"
Zhou Qiang was moved.
The reward of ten thousand times is really too tempting.
In fact, there is too much room for maneuver in this matter. Zhou Qiang does not need to take action at all. He just needs to find some reliable people.
Leave things to them, take away the gold at regular intervals, and give them supplies.
Now, making a fifth-level mutated zombie requires one billion in funds, and the sixth-level one is expected to be 10 billion.
The amount of capital required is too huge.
Of course, this plan has to wait until we get the Sea King-class submarine.
He glanced at Li Zijia.
Realizing that she seemed a little thirsty, Zhou Qiang took out another bottle of water and threw it to her.
"Drink!"
Li Zijia nodded, took it and drank it in one breath without hesitation.
She naturally trusts Zhou Qiang.
Don't worry about there being any problems with the water.
Li Zijia knew that she had nothing and only her body left to make Zhou Qiang miss. But Zhou Qiang didn't accept her offer, so what was he afraid of?
You must know that the dishes Zhou Qiang brings out are definitely a hundred times more precious than this water.
The few extraordinary people who collected the tickets looked at Li Zijia drinking it in one breath, and their eyes widened.
They subconsciously licked their chapped lips.
It's really irritating to see people compare to each other.
Being beautiful is different. There are always a lot of rich bosses vying to keep her.
Entering the arena, there was a deafening sound.
Countless people waved their arms and shouted.
"kill him."
"kill him."
"kill him."
Every eye is red.
In front of every position in this arena, there is a button to place a bet.
If you want, you can bet on the gladiator you think may win.
Before placing a bet, you first need to download the APP they developed, and second, you need to deposit food, water or genetic fluid to the operators of the arena, and they will convert it into digital form for you to place your bet.
The reason why people here are crazy is precisely because of this kind of gambling.
The Arena is definitely a super money-attracting place.
With this VIP gold medal, Zhou Qiang and Li Zijia appeared in the VIP area.
This place is at the front of the arena. There are a lot of people inside, but it is far from full.
The ticket for a bottle of water is not cheap, and many people are reluctant to part with it.
The people here are still enthusiastic, they are also roaring and waving their arms.
Zhou Qiang found a seat and sat down.
Not only can you see the whole picture below, but there is also a live light screen in front of you, which can be zoomed in and out, and the angle can be switched.
It is worthy of being a VIP area. These functions are not available in other civilian areas.
"Damn it, this piece of trash is so strong but so powerful that I lost 10L of water."
"Fuck, I lost ten pounds of rice like that."
"Hahahaha, I knew he could win, so cool!"
"Fortunately, I didn't bet on him, otherwise it would have been over."
Suddenly, everyone here started shouting and cursing.
Some people yelled and cursed, while others laughed wildly.
In the huge arena below, a 1.7-meter-tall man was seen covered in blood. He held up the sword and shield in his hands and roared crazily.
But his opponent, a big man over 1.9 meters tall, fell in a pool of blood.
A long gash was cut into the big man's abdomen, and his internal organs spilled out.
But this was not the injury that really caused his immediate death, but a gash in his neck, with blood still gushing out.
As soon as the result of the gladiatorial battle came out, the whole scene was boiling.
Two extremes.
Some people yelled, some laughed, they were all people who had placed their bets.
Only those who really came to have fun cheered. For them, this scene made their blood boil and their mood became very excited.
Zhou Qiang frowned.
In the apocalypse, human nature is indeed distorted. They like this kind of violence and blood, like wild beasts.
Li Zijia's eyes were filled with fire. She was a soldier and her education made it difficult for her to accept all this.
Look at the scene below, there is dark red everywhere.
You can imagine how many people fight to the death here every day and are eventually killed here.
"Next, our gladiator queen will appear."
"She has won three hundred and forty-seven games in a row."
"It's only three games until she can be free."
"If she's lucky, today will be her day of freedom."
At this time, there was a burst of excited roars from the announcement in the arena.
A loud voice kept repeating these words.
The people whose enthusiasm had not subsided just now fell into crazy shouting again.
In the arena below, a huge cage was seen sliding on the track, and it soon reached the center of the arena.
A cage made of thick steel bars welded together, each steel bar is thicker than an arm.
Through the gap between the steel bars, a slender woman can be seen standing in the cage.
She was wearing a somewhat tattered tights, and there was dirt on her face. She couldn't tell what she looked like, but at least she had a good figure.
The reason why this tights is tattered is not because it is old, but because it was cut open by a knife blade.
She has short hair and is a little greasy.
Her appearance set off the whole scene.
But facing the roars of countless people, this woman had no expression on her face, her eyes were even gray, and she couldn't see a trace of soul, like a body without a soul.
She stood numbly, letting the cage pull her to the center of the arena.
"Crack!"
There was the sound of the automatic lock opening from the huge cage.
There was still no expression on the woman's face. She looked at the open door, raised her legs and walked out.
A pair of straight and slender long legs.
As she walked out, she held a battle ax prepared in the cage in her hand.
When this woman stepped forward to the arena, the entire arena erupted into even louder shouts, one wave after another.
"Welcome our gladiator queen."
The DJ's voice rang out, setting off the whole place.
"Queen."
"Queen."
"Queen……"
The sound filled the ears, which was shocking.
There are at least 50,000 to 60,000 people here in the entire arena.
The woman raised her head and glanced lightly at the people shouting here, but she remained as motionless as a statue, as if these people did not exist.
"Three hundred and forty-seven games, all wins. This record is too abnormal."
"There is only life and death in the arena. It is really amazing that she can stay alive forever. I have decided to keep her in custody for a while."
"For a woman to be able to do this is absolutely a miracle."
"You guys are so naive. I dare say that these last three games will definitely be the death of this gladiator queen."
"Why?"
"It's very simple. No one is allowed to escape control in the gladiatorial arena. In these last three games, super powerful people or zombies will definitely appear. The queen will never be allowed to win so easily."
"No way, will the rules be ignored in the arena?"
"Rules? This is the end of the world. Everything will be trampled on. The rules are set by them and controlled by them."
"That's true. You definitely can't bet on the victory of the Gladiator Queen, otherwise the money will be wasted."
In the VIP area, everyone was talking, but their faces looked like they were watching a good show.
To them, it doesn't matter what this woman has experienced at least, but what will happen next.
Zhou Qiang frowned and looked at the woman under the huge arena.
She stood in the center, but she was so small.
In the enlarged picture, it can be seen that she has no fear at all, but looks at the huge arena indifferently, as if the tens of thousands of spectators in the arena have become her own clown.
Just standing there gives people a feeling of being overwhelmed.
A fierce aura emanated from her body, making everyone who looked at her feel fearful.
She is more like a female war goddess.
"Viewers, the opponent the Gladiator Queen will face this time will be unprecedented."
The DJ's voice rang again, suppressing the waves of shouts.
Soon everyone in the arena stopped shouting, but stared at the arena below with excitement on their faces.
"Today, the Gladiator Queen will complete her own redemption and complete the feat of winning the 350th game. Then she will become a free person, receive a pardon initiated by the leader, become a member of the Red Fortress, and will never be a slave again. .”
"So, please cherish the last three battles of the Gladiator Queen."
"Of course, it also depends on whether our gladiator queen can win the last three battles."
"Now everyone shout with me to support our Majesty the Queen."
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
The DJ's voice has a magical power that arouses the emotions of tens of thousands of people.
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Her Majesty the Queen..."
Fanatic roars rang out, and unsuspecting people thought they were meeting their Majesty the Queen.
In fact, just a gladiator.
The woman known as the Gladiator Queen stood in the center of the arena indifferently, seemingly unmoved by the enthusiasm of these people.
"Now, let's warm up our Majesty with an appetizer."
"Please enter Tank, the man with one hundred and twenty-one undefeated victories."
"Everyone has five minutes to place their bets."
As the DJ roared, information about tanks appeared on huge light screens, listing videos of his one hundred and twenty-one battles.
In the arena below, a huge cage also brought a 1.9-meter-tall man into the arena.
"Roar……"
The big man, nicknamed Tank, roared provocatively when he saw the gladiator queen standing in the center.
He was as tall as a tank.
When the cage stopped, it did not open immediately. This time is the time for the audience to place their bets.
The Gladiator Queen just glanced at the tank expressionlessly, then turned into an ice sculpture and remained motionless.
"You bitch, I will kill you."
The tank made a buzzing sound.
But the Gladiator Queen didn't even pay attention to him.
It was the first time Zhou Qiang saw a gladiatorial fight, and he was also interested. He held his chin and observed the two people through the enlarged screen.
But I really can’t see anything yet.
Li Zijia was a little indignant: "Why treat a woman like this?"
"It's so shameless. Women are already weak, but they still want to be gladiators?"
"It's so ridiculous and a disgrace to civilization."
When the people in the VIP area heard Li Zijia's voice and saw Li Zijia's beauty, they were all stunned, and they all looked like Brother Zhu.
In the great reshuffle of the apocalypse, many people at the bottom have become strong and they have become the masters, so many people have twisted and perverted personalities.
What would such a beautiful woman have to do with them before the end of the world?
But it's different now. Almost all of them present are slave owners. They have huge power, a group of subordinates, and a large number of slaves. They are the masters of this world. What a beautiful woman they dare to think.
Of course, when they saw Zhou Qiang standing next to Li Zijia, they still suppressed their thoughts.
People who can get in here will not act rashly until they find out the details.
They are not idiots, otherwise they would have the strength they have today?
Many people were staring at Li Zijia unscrupulously, not caring that Zhou Qiang was by Li Zijia's side.
Even an ugly middle-aged man walked over. He was wearing famous brands and ten large diamond rings in his hands. He was truly a nouveau riche.
But he felt good.
"Brother, do you want to change this woman?"
"I'd trade a hundred strong slaves for that."
"No, two hundred will do."
If two hundred strong slaves were exchanged for one woman, he was sure that the other woman would be attracted to her.
Zhou Qiang glanced at the middle-aged man lightly and said in a loud voice: "Get out!"
Li Zijia was originally nervous, but when she heard the word Zhou Qiang, she immediately became happy.
However, she wisely said nothing because she was afraid of causing trouble to Zhou Qiang.
The muscles on the man's face were pulsing. He stared at Zhou Qiang fiercely, then stretched out three fingers: "Three hundred strong slaves."
Zhou Qiang didn't even bother to look at the man, but instead focused his attention on the arena below.
"Hahaha, Liu Laoliu, I said you are just a toad."
"It's so grand. Three hundred slaves are willing to give up. Liu Laoliu really starved to death in lust."
"Three hundred slaves refused. This woman is really valuable."
The others all laughed, making Liu Laoliu look ugly.
He stared at Zhou Qiang's back and snorted coldly. He did not pester or say harsh words, but looked at the arena with a sullen face.
Five minutes is actually pretty quick.
When the betting ended, I heard the DJ say: "The time is up, the betting process is over, and now it's time for us to find out."
"Are the people who conservatively bought the Gladiator Queen the winner and had the last laugh, or are the people who extravagantly hoped that the tank would win and get rich rewards?"
"Now we invite our Mr. Tank to appear."
There was a "click" from the electronic lock of the huge cage that trapped the tank, and the cage door opened.
The tall tank walked out of the cage, holding a mace in his hand. The sharp metal thorns on it shone with a cold light in the sun.
"Tank, tank, tank..."
The shouts that rang out like a tsunami were deafening.
Everyone who had bet on the tank became excited and shouted the tank's name crazily.
"Roar……"
Tank raised his mace and roared in response to the bettors.
Every muscle of his body was extremely powerful, and his height of 1.9 meters gave a huge sense of oppression to the gladiator queen who was just over 17 meters tall.
There was a bloodthirsty look in his eyes.
He enjoys this madness.
All the people who had bet on the Gladiator Queen gave up. They also stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty the Queen, twist off the head of this bullshit tank."
There was an overwhelming amount of yelling and cursing.
The atmosphere at the scene was so adrenaline-inducing that everyone seemed to be going crazy.
"you die!"
Tank held the mace and pointed at the gladiator queen.
The next moment, the tank moved.
He picked up the mace and rushed towards the Gladiator Queen, showing a bloodthirsty expression.
Coming out of the cage, the fight has already begun.
Only one of the two could stand.
In the arena, there are never two winners.
"Bang!"
The tank rushed forward, and then his whole body was shaken, and the energy spread. This is the skill [Shock Wave] possessed by the third-level transcendent.
But the Gladiator Queen moved, leaving an afterimage like a ghost.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared outside the range of [Shock Wave].
She stood indifferently, maintaining the movement of holding the battle ax as if she had not moved just now.
But the next moment, her figure became blurry.
It is the speed-evolved [Ghost].
Zhou Qiang's eyes were fixed on the gladiator queen, whose speed was so strong that she almost seemed to have disappeared.
This tank is also very powerful. He once again used [Shock Wave], which can knock away people who are attacked by [Ghost].
It's just that the fighting skills of this gladiator queen are very powerful. Like a snake, she wraps herself around the tank and moves around the tank at an incredibly fast speed.
"Pfft!"
In an instant, the tall tank was covered with wounds, and his muscles were dyed red with blood.
This gladiatorial queen actually used her tomahawk so dexterously while moving at high speed that she injured the tank.
He was injured, but Tank didn't care at all.
He roared and swung his mace wildly.
But the moment he swung the mace, the Gladiator Queen appeared behind him and swung the battle ax as well.
She jumped up high and used the force of her fall to strike down with her battle ax.
By the time Tank realized the wind was blowing above his head, it was already too late.
"Pfft!"
The tomahawk split his head in two.
The tall body fell to the ground with a roar.
The Gladiator Queen didn't even take a breath, her eyes were cold and she just slowly stretched out two fingers.
Two more games to go.
