Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 370: 【Moros Central Arena】

PS. I’m stuck, this chapter is a bit watery.

After an encounter with Vincent F. Van Gogh, one of the top ten bounty hunters, in the central square of the city-state of Moros, Suellen always felt that this guy's purpose was somewhat intriguing.

There are only two possibilities when you meet the same person twice.

Either it's a coincidence.

Either it's not a coincidence.

Suellen always likes to assume some bad options.

There is no doubt that the information about "Frost Moon Princess" Skadi is top secret. Even the most well-informed intelligence dealer in the Moros city-state knew very little.

But for such important information, that guy gave it away so easily.

One has to doubt his motives.

If you think about it more carefully, this kind of information can only be mastered by an intelligence structure like the Luying Military Intelligence Agency.

Oh, no.

Su Lun suddenly thought of someone...

Katyusha.

After seeing the Katyusha family's layout methods in Shanyin Country last time, Su Lun also guessed that the little girl who likes to be a poet must have an extraordinary family background.

The entire Luying Empire only has two hands of those top nobles.

Now that I think about it, only a noble with a profound background can afford to hire masters of the "Top Ten Legendary Hunters" level.

However, Katyusha could not be contacted, and Su Lun could not confirm.

The mysterious guy in front of me will definitely not take the initiative to say it.

But the good news is that there is always good intentions.

Su Lun recalled how he met Katyusha during a drinking session when he retrieved his two rings in Blizzard City

Then we had another drink at the holy land of the Daru tribe, and then got bitten.

Looking back now, the emotion was true, but that encounter didn’t seem entirely coincidental.

The first time I was cursing the dead man in the valley, the second time I was hiding in the mountain Abe Yasukazu

Now this Van Gogh seems to have a similar routine.

No one will send you information for no reason.

Su Lun felt like she was a "little rich woman" on the list?

Although he felt that it was true that he and the girl had a mutual affinity for each other. But it is not something that a noble lady who has seen the world will never forget.

It's like a little princess in a noble family. She always wants to see the outside world, and then goes out to meet some people and see the life of some people at the bottom. When she gets tired of playing, she always has to go back.

Maybe there are other purposes.

Su Lun always has a premonition that the mystery will be solved before he meets Katyusha next time

Van Gogh stayed in the central square to paint the sunset, and Su Lun didn't chat much with this guy.

He went straight to Dongcheng Walrus Street, which is the pub district in the city.

Roman Country’s **** industry is already quite developed,

You can enjoy services that cannot be enjoyed elsewhere in the city-state of Moros. There are not only professional dancers here, but also captured female warriors with unusually flexible figures.

This is the favorite place for pirates, adventurers, and speculators to spend money.

Su Lun is not here to visit a brothel.

He walked all the way through the group of Yingying Yanyan girls, passing by a luxurious building with a "Golden Rose" sign, and stopped for a moment.

This is the largest brothel in the city.

Many people gathered at the door, including men, women, and children.

"Barron! Barron! Barron!"

"Hero! Hero! Hero!"

""

People are cheering the name of "King of Fights" Barron Opatra, who is Roman Reigns' brightest star right now.

After all, not many people can complete the "Hero Trial" and come back alive. This is a hero whom everyone admires.

The last one was several years ago.

Su Lun was holding a crutch disguised as a black umbrella, and he felt the powerful soul fire in the brothel.

There are probably more than a dozen groups of not very strong soul fires in that guy's room, entangled with each other.

She should be a professional girl.

Su Lun felt that in this situation, he would definitely not be able to meet.

This kind of "hero" is probably not that easy to see even among Roman's first-class big shots.

Su Lun wrote down the soul flame that looked like a flaming lion, and originally wanted to leave first.

Perceptibly, he found a ball of soul fire that he had seen in a room in the brothel.

Is this the young man who struck up a conversation with the descendant of the Puppet Master named Kama in the Baker Street Market?

I just proposed to a girl there, and here I am hanging out in a brothel. Is this okay?

Su Lun shook his head and did not mind such nosy matters.

He contacted Senjo and went to the bathhouse for a while.

Roman's large bathhouse is indeed good. Although it is not as delicate and elegant as the volcanic hot springs in Yamayaku, it is still unique.

After taking a bath in the hot spring, I feel refreshed.

At night, they found a hotel to stay in

The next day, it was not until the afternoon that Su Lun and the others walked out of the hotel.

Events in the "Central Arena" are held throughout the day, but the really intense events for high-level professionals usually take place after evening.

Su Lun, Qian Jiao and Lolota were eating at a restaurant on the street.

On the table were dozens of kilograms of Warcraft meat, several brick-sized pieces of bread, and "bokassa wine", a spirit brewed from Icefield wheat.

These are Roman’s specialties.

While eating, Su Lun said: "There is news from the local snakes. Before the gladiatorial match, no one can see the gladiators. But after the match, if Kai is not dead yet, they can arrange one A brief meeting. I have arranged it."

"Yeah."

Qianjou nodded expressionlessly as she listened. With Su Lun by her side, she didn’t need to worry.

She just responded: "Since Princess Skadi brought Kai from the Pirate City, she shouldn't let him die so easily. Even if he goes to the arena, Kai's second interpretation [Red Devil] is almost the same level. No one can defeat me. You shouldn’t have to worry about your safety for the time being.”

Su Lun also thought so and said: "Well. If it is in the arena, it is really difficult to rescue by force. And I also heard that Marfa's slaves all wear very special slave collars. I You have to go and see what’s going on first”

Thousands of items: ""

Not long after, the three of them had enough to eat and drink.

They walked slowly to the street

Gladiator fights were the favorite sport of the Romans, and watching duels was their favorite entertainment activity.

When the three of them walked to the arena, the place was already crowded.

"Hey, have you heard that the monster [Hell's Mouth] that was captured before will appear tonight. The opponent is the very powerful "Red Devil" Kai the day before yesterday, who has won three consecutive death battles. ”

"I also heard that that guy seems to be a slave gladiator from Marfa. He is very strong. I heard that many people are optimistic that he is the most promising seed player to achieve the '100-win achievement' this year!"

"Yes, I heard about it too, and I came here to take a look today. After all, I haven't seen such a powerful outsider for a long time."

""

People on the road were talking enthusiastically.

Tonight's big show is Kai's gladiatorial match. It is not common for such high-level professionals to appear.

When you meet once, it's like a grand festival, and almost everyone in the city will come to join in the fun.

Su Lun walked all the way, listening to the information from passers-by.

Not long after, we arrived at the front square of the arena.

This is an ancient arena with a history of more than a thousand years. Time has made the white main building turn a little yellow, and there are obvious traces of rain corrosion. This huge cylindrical building is made up of numerous stone pillars that look thick and solid. The continuous arches, small round windows, carvings, and fruit sculptures are all very exquisite and distinctive.

Before, Su Lun didn’t understand why the Romans liked gladiatorial games so much. Even the ordinary guards guarding the city gates were elite warriors.

Now looking at the identified arena in front of him, he finally understood.

His pupils dilated and his eyes took in the entire arena,

【Moros Central Arena】

Detailed explanation: This is the arena blessed by Tyr, the **** of war; even though this arena is only a thousand years old, those stones are relics of the ancient arena left by the ancient **** of war civilization countless years ago; the stones Soaked in the blood of countless gladiators, the heroic spirits linger and have some magical effects; fighting in the arena, the gladiators will be inspired and have a probability of receiving the 'Blessing of Heroic Spirits', and understand the combat skills, techniques, and skills left by ancient heroic spirits. Realm of enlightenment; the braver the person, the greater the probability of receiving blessings.

Su Lun looked at the layer of blood mist on the gladiatorial arena, and then realized that it was actually the lingering fighting spirit.

There will always be some miraculous things in these countries where there is belief in gods.

"It turns out that participating in gladiatorial combat can also help you understand combat skills and achieve breakthroughs."

Su Lun looked at it and was amazed in his heart.

This arena is a large-scale "heritage place".

However, a gladiatorial match is not an ordinary sparring match. Even if it is not a "death match", the casualty rate is very high.

The gladiators trained in this way are indeed very capable in actual combat.

But for the Romans who are not afraid of death, the gladiatorial arena is indeed the fastest way to improve their strength

Money can always solve a lot of troubles.

Su Lun found a local ticket buyer outside the arena and bought several grandstand tickets with seats at a high price.

The three of them squeezed in with the crowd, and then found their position in the wave of people.

Three positions have been occupied by a group of muscular men.

Su Lun showed his seat ticket, Qianjiao drew his knife, and then they got their seats back.

The fighting arena is very large.

Even the central combat area is as big as two or three football fields.

At this moment, the gladiatorial competition is in full swing.

The sound of "Keng", "Keng", "Keng" weapons touching resounded throughout the space.

They were working as gangsters in Old Town before. Su Lun and Qian Jiao were used to all kinds of underground black boxing and death wrestling.

The current blood-stained gladiatorial battle did not make them feel that much novel.

However, the gladiators here are too professional in terms of martial arts, weapons, and combat awareness.

The gangs are gangsters fighting, and this is the stage for professional gladiators to perform.

Spear, axe, shield, mace, hammer, knife, sword

You can see all kinds of weapon routines.

Even Qian Jiao was filled with energy and admiration from time to time when he saw the proficient fighting skills of those gladiators.

The Roman Kingdom’s fighting skills, which have been passed down for countless years, are indeed extraordinary.

After all, it is not a performance. The pace in the arena is very fast, and sometimes a game may end in one encounter.

The three of them sat there for just a moment, and several games had already ended.

In the arena, there are three types of gladiators, one is Roman's professional gladiator, one is slave gladiator, and the other is outsider who is curious to participate.

No, as Su Lun watched, he actually saw a crew member from the Dawn Regiment coming up to join in the fun!

That is Henk, the boss of the giant clan.

As soon as this guy appeared, Su Lun's eyelids jumped.

Qianjou and Lolotta were very excited and even helped wave the flag and cheer.

But fortunately, we won.

The strength advantage of the giants is still very useful in the gladiatorial arena.

With one force, Hengke dented the opponent's shield with a few swings of his mace. Then with the last heavy blow, the opponent was directly embedded in the wall, ending the battle.

A few more battles ended quickly.

Su Lun also saw the royal knights of the "Holy Judgment Group".

As soon as the professionals with slave collars around their necks and tattered military uniforms appeared on the scene, the audience instantly became excited.

Because there are slave gladiator games, they are almost all "death matches" and will be very fierce.

The opponents participating in this kind of battle are usually the bravest Roman gladiators. They were confident enough to challenge the slave gladiators who had to fight with their lives.

The battle will be very enjoyable to watch.

As expected, the battle was extremely fierce from the beginning.

In three battles, one Royal Knight died and another was seriously injured.

Su Lun looked on expressionlessly, the solemnity in his eyes never dissipating.

A few died each time, which obviously forced Barrett and the others to show up for the rescue as soon as possible.

Su Lun could not imagine that there was any way that Barrett and his team could rescue these people in the city.

This is also the most important reason why Barrett chose to leave with others.

This batch of "bait" is very deadly, but they have to eat it

Finally, the final battle of the night has come.

Bare-handed gladiatorial matches are okay, the mortality rate is not too high; once weapons are used, the probability of being disabled even if one does not die is very high.

But usually, the bloodiest thing must be the "Beast Fighting Tournament"!

The last scene is the battle between beasts.

At this moment, they finally saw Kai come on stage.

"Kay!"

"Kay!"

"Kay!"

""

Seeing tonight's protagonist take the stage, the audience burst into cheers.

And his opponent is a monster more than ten meters long. It has a body that is constantly wriggling like an earthworm, and its head is like a bud, open and full of dense fangs that make people's scalp numb when they see it.

This is [Hell's Mouth], a lord-level cave-dwelling monster.

Although this thing in front of you is only level 4, it is hidden underground and can definitely easily kill level 5 monsters for food.

For humans, it is even more deadly.

The monster was released from the iron cage and rushed straight towards Kai. It looks huge and clumsy, but it has snot-like mucus flowing all the way. When it opens its mouth, it spits out another mouthful of concentrated acid that burns the ground. Its attack range is extremely wide.

This kind of monster is a fatal threat even to Kai.

Kai only wore simple armor and a helmet. As soon as his second stage Red Devil state was released, his body surface turned into a red lump of lava-like skin, and a domineering aura instantly suppressed the entire audience.

One person and one beast, fighting fiercely together.

Qianjou was also surprised when he saw it, and whispered: "Kai has also advanced to the fifth level?"

Su Lun frowned, "Yeah."

He also figured it out. No wonder the princess wanted to bring Kai here. She probably wanted to create a top-level professional in a short time.

This [Moros Central Arena] does have the effect of breaking through bottlenecks and quickly increasing combat power.

Although the mortality rate is high, it does not matter to a Marfa royal princess.

If you die, you just die as a slave, there is no loss.

If you can advance to a higher level, it will be a real help.

Kai has great potential, and it is almost certain that he will advance to the sixth level. Now that you are sent to this arena, you might actually have a chance to hit the "100-win streak", then accept the "Hero Trial" and advance to the seventh level!

Who wouldn’t want the seventh level I picked up?

The battle was very fierce, and the audience cheered loudly.

Su Lun looked at Kai, who was in danger several times, with a worried look on his face.

However, outsiders cannot get involved in this kind of competition.

Instead, his eyes fell on the collar embedded in flesh and blood around Kai's neck.

After the appraisal, Su Lun looked sharply and said to himself: "This is going to be a bit troublesome."

Qianjo glanced at him sideways and asked, "Is that so?"

Su Lun said: "Kai's current soul fluctuations are a bit strange. I suspect that the troublemaker is using some secret method to twist his will. Moreover, the [Mechanical Slave Collar] around his neck has a very high technological content. You must find a specific key to open it. Moreover, the person who holds the key can control his life and death at any time."

The secret method twists the will so much that no one is surprised. Since "Princess Frost Moon" wants Kai to be her slave, she must be absolutely loyal.

There are many spiritual spells and potions on the market that can slowly change a person's will and cognition.

Try slowly, and Kai will be successfully "brainwashed".

However, Su Lun was not unprepared.

If you can use a high-priority spiritual method to twist it back, it won't be a big problem.

For others, it may be powerless.

But Su Lun still has a "Pandora" in his hands!

After all, she is the "Tsukuyomi God". The level of psychological suggestion cast by divine magic is definitely higher than any spiritual means known to Su Lun on the market.

He had already planned to ask Pandora to help and give Kai a hint.

As long as you don't resist, you can succeed almost instantly.

Even if Caizhen is "brainwashed" by the people of "Frost Moon Princess", he will be able to fully recover his cognition when Pandora activates the suggestion again.

But the [Mechanical Slave Collar] is very tricky.

The identification shows that if external force is destroyed, the poisonous device implanted in the body will be triggered immediately,

As Qianjo listened, a look of embarrassment appeared on his expression, and he asked: "In other words, we not only have to save people, but we also have to get the key?"

Su Lun looked deeply, nodded and said: "I'm afraid so"
