Rendell's Gambling Arena, a pet gambling arena hidden underground in Knox City.
This place was designed to be both hidden and mysterious. It was surrounded by thick stone brick walls covered with moss. There were only a few dim lights hanging from the high ceiling, which could only illuminate the central competition arena.
The venue for the competition was a wide circular sand pit, and the sand was trampled extremely hard. The edge of the sand pit is surrounded by a magic fence about two meters high, and the top is decorated with various energy-supply demon crystals to prevent the aftermath of the elf battle from affecting the audience.
The auditorium is arranged in a ring around the sand pit and is divided into several levels, each level is crowded with excited spectators. These spectators came from all walks of life in Knox City. They cheered and shouted enthusiastically, cheering for the beast masters and pets they supported.
In the front row of the auditorium were a number of wealthy and influential-looking figures, richly dressed and with expressions of excitement and anticipation on their faces.
In the center of the sand pit, several animal masters were concentrating on commanding their pets. These pets come in many varieties, from small, agile felines to huge, powerful phantom beasts. They fought fiercely in the sand pit, and each attack caused a burst of exclamations from the audience.
In one corner of the gambling arena, there is a dedicated betting area. All kinds of people gathered here, exchanging intelligence, discussing tactics, and placing bets. The atmosphere in this area is even more tense, as everyone is paying close attention to the outcome of the gambling battle, hoping to win wealth from this dangerous game.
The entire gambling arena is filled with an atmosphere of tension, excitement and uncertainty, becoming a unique landscape of the underground industry in Knox City.
When Lu Ze came in, he couldn't help but be attracted by this gambling arena that operated like a machine.
"Boy, you didn't expect that there is such a recreational thing underground in Knox City, which usually seems boring."
Gu Yuan called over a staff member who looked short and said with a smile, "Go and qualify this brother of mine for the competition, so that he can compete today."
Gu Yuan is a frequent visitor and a well-known financial backer in Knox City. This underground gambling arena is even partially funded by Gu Yuan, so the staff inside are naturally familiar with it. After nodding respectfully to Gu Yuan, the staff member looked at Lu Ze with a respectful tone.
"What's your name?"
"Don't use your real name!" Gu Yuan coughed lightly and blushed, but no one noticed him under the dim light.
"...Bai Ze" Lu Ze withdrew his gaze from the side, suppressed his restless emotions and hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.
Gu Yuan believed that his real name should be Natural Selection, so he would change it to another one. He did not ask the other party why for this trivial matter.
Just like a real bar, the dim lights and passionate shouts will indeed make people feel an inexplicable surge of blood.
Watching the staff leave, Lu Ze nodded slightly, "Indeed, it's more luxurious than I imagined."
"Oh, it cost at least 100,000 alliance coins to build the venue. It is paved with high-quality energy-isolating materials. If the appearance is not better, how can it be comparable to the interior."
Gu Yuan said casually, taking Lu Ze around for another circle and then sending him to the backstage of the gambling arena.
"Hey, isn't this Lord Gu Yuan? What have you been busy with lately? I haven't seen him for several days."
As soon as I entered the backstage, a gorgeous woman in a red dress came over. Even though she was an old lady, she still looked unique.
The clothing is bold and revealing, making it even more attractive.
Lu Ze took a second look anyway.
"It's none of your business. If you have time, hurry up and arrange the show for my little brother. He's at the spiritual level. Can you get it done within half an hour?"
Gu Yuan said angrily, sitting on the sofa nearby and eating the platter.
Lu Ze also sat down, and then the woman looked at Lu Ze, covering her mouth a little exaggeratedly, "Could it be said that Lord Gu Yuan, you finally want to be a matchmaker for your daughter?"
"It's such a pity that those young, vigorous young men kept begging me to introduce you, the father of one of the twin stars among Knox City students, to them."
"We haven't seen each other for a few days and you're being naughty again? You like those hot-blooded children so much, why not introduce yourself to them?"
Having said that, Gu Yuan seemed to say it casually, and the relationship between the two was naturally not shallow, which Lu Ze knew.
"Okay, okay, I will make arrangements for you, my little brother, and I will ensure that you are satisfied as soon as possible."
The woman smiled charmingly and was not annoyed. She winked at Lu Ze and walked out.
"What? Do you like this?"
Seeing that Lu Ze hadn't recovered from the woman's departure, Gu Yuan's fierce face became a little more playful.
"No."
Lu Ze was not embarrassed and coughed lightly.
"It's just that her soul is mixed with light, like frost and snow mixed with strong wine, boiling into a altar of tenderness. I can't spell out romantic words, just like I can't express the youthful spirit in my writing."
"?" Gu Yuan was stunned, and then lightly patted Lu Ze's shoulder with a kind face.
"speak English."
"It's so cool." Lu Ze said honestly.
"Hahahahahaha." Gu Yuan smiled heartily, showing a narrow smile that should be like this.
"To be honest, but you can't say this in front of that woman."
Gu Yuan lowered his voice, "Do you know how old she is?"
"More than thirty?" Lu Ze roughly guessed based on his appearance, but was rejected by Gu Yuan.
"Let me tell you, she can be my mother, and she can also be your nurse. Do you understand her age?"
"The same age as that old guy Miles."
Lu Ze: "?"
For a moment, he felt that his soul was covered with a deep sense of guilt. He actually treated a person of his grandmother's age...
"She has good looks, is a high-level beast control master, and has countless connections. If she has nothing to do, it will be no problem for someone to catch a few red-faced rabbits from the monster battlefield and drain her blood into medicine for bathing."
Thinking of this, Gu Yuan couldn't help but smack his lips. He thinks he is rich, but he is still a little behind compared to this old woman.
The Zhuyan Rabbit is a monster, and its level is not high. It is considered to be at the lower end of the food chain in the world of monsters, but that does not mean that this thing can be caught casually.
You know, the Zhuyan Rabbit usually lives deep inside the territory of monsters and never participates in wars with humans and elves. It doesn't have that ability.
The person who can regularly capture the Zhuyan Rabbit in this position must enter a battle group composed of at least senior beast masters, and must be led by at least a quasi-king, otherwise the probability of death and injury is too high.
Especially, her connections and money are extremely terrifying.
Although Lu Ze didn't understand, he was in awe after hearing the term "senior beast master". Another person who couldn't afford to offend appeared.
After all, because of the war between monsters and humans, the top combatants among humans who have become senior beast masters are either stationed on one side, or they go to the battlefield of monsters to find out the probability of improving their elf to become a king.
Basically, in the entire Star Pet Continent, there are not many high-level beast control masters in the power cities far away from the monster battlefield.
"So, she didn't hear what I just said."
Lu Ze whispered, while Gu Yuan smiled incredulously.
"Maybe she heard it, but she wouldn't care if she heard it. She likes others to think she is young and beautiful."
