Chapter 842 Sequelae of the ring match
In a society like Longcheng where the people are strong and martial is respected.
When the ownership of a resource or opportunity is unclear.
A fair contest between individuals, bound by rules, is undoubtedly the most appropriate method to replace the chaotic fight between the two major forces.
Since decades ago, "chariot competition" has become popular in Longcheng.
The business competition among the nine super-enterprises, the academic debate between Longcheng University and the Five-University Alliance, the advantages and disadvantages of rune machinery and biochemical modulation technology... From a wealthy family with one hand to cover the sky, to a common man fighting for a living.
If there is a conflict between them, everyone likes to use the ring competition to resolve differences and grievances.
I think that back then, Meng Chao and his high school monitor "Zuo Haoran" had a showdown in the woods behind the school in this way.
Of course, today is different from the past.
Meng Chao made great contributions in conquering the Kirigakure Realm, preventing countless hot blood from flowing in vain.
He has a good relationship with the Red Dragon Army and the nine major super corporations.
In Dragon City, where the situation is changing and undercurrents are surging, his family's super star resources are the objects that all forces want to win over.
There is some kind of... mysterious and mysterious understanding between him and "Micro Brain", and he can peer into the deep mysteries of "Micro Brain" better than many powerful people in the God Realm.
The major forces in Dragon City are eager to use eight-carriage sedans to carry him into the No. 2 ruins to discover more valuable technologies, information and resources for Dragon City civilization.
How could it be possible to deprive him of the training opportunities and resources in the monster lair?
But monsters like Meng Chao who are reborn from the apocalypse are rare after all.
The vast majority of extraordinary people, especially the new extraordinary people who are thirty years old and below the heavenly realm, if they want to enter the No. 2 ruins and gain more resources for their respective forces, they must go to the ring to prove their worth and strength.
Even if they come from the nine great families and are the descendants of the powerful gods, facing the eager gaze of other extraordinary beings, it is difficult for them to take the back door. They have to go to the ring to have a fair contest and shed a layer of their skin.
On top of the ruins and within the sinkhole, a total of nine granite arenas are lined up.
In just ten days and a half, there were already nearly a thousand extraordinary beings fighting each other in the ring.
Their scalding blood, which contains psychic energy, has eroded the hardest granite and is riddled with holes.
Although in the circle of extraordinary people, the rule of the arena competition is "you will have no regrets in life or death, and you will be willing to accept defeat."
But people are not grass and trees, and who can do it 100%? Watching the companions they have been with day and night being beaten to death by their opponents in the ring, and rare resources and precious opportunities also being taken away by their opponents, yet they are not angry or angry at all.
What about holding a grudge?
Not to mention, the casualty rate in this round of arena competition was particularly high.
On the one hand, the resources and opportunities competed for this time are crucial. The extraordinary people participating in the arena competition are all burdened with the future of their respective families, companies, schools, and forces. They dare not relax at all.
Even at an absolute disadvantage, he will not give in easily, and will even burn his life at every turn, using thunderous means that exceed his own limits, resulting in a lose-lose outcome.
On the other hand, the development of the No. 2 ruins has enabled the major forces in Dragon City to obtain many new formulas, new technologies, and new miraculous skills.
Many extraordinary beings were nourished by the ancient power and couldn't wait to apply the new power to the arena. Little did they know that they were still unable to use the extremely dangerous power freely. As a result, they either struck too hard or backfired on themselves, causing them to die or die.
hurt.
On the first day of the official start of the arena competition, a transcendent from the Huanyu Group used a "forbidden move" from Ruin No. 2 that was still being tested to beat a transcendent from the Red Dragon Army.
His five internal organs were displaced, he vomited blood, his spiritual veins burned, and he became a "remnant star extraordinary".
The next day, there was an extraordinary person from Thundercloud Technology who was retreating steadily under the fierce offensive of the powerful military men and was about to fall out of the ring.
This extraordinary person who was not willing to fail bit out the newly formulated genetic potion hidden in his back teeth.
Unexpectedly, this new drug that can increase instantaneous psychic power by 300% is extremely unstable and has side effects similar to the "Magic Transformation Capsule", causing this extraordinary person to burst into flames in full view of everyone.
Although he was rescued by the referee and the audience in various ways, he was not burned alive.
But the flames originating from the mitochondria had severely burned his spiritual veins, blood vessels and nerves, causing him to permanently lose the ability to use extraordinary power.
For an extraordinary person, this is an outcome even harder to accept than death.
In the following days, the smell of blood in the ring became stronger and stronger.
Every day, more than two digits of extraordinary people are killed or injured.
Even the victors often suffer irreversible sequelae.
Originally, when everyone stepped into the ring, they could still smile, hold fists and salute. At least on the surface, it was a "fair fight, until the point is reached."
Later, the contestants were still under the ring, staring at each other with bloodshot eyes, their murderous aura almost condensed into extremely sharp weapons, and they wanted to compete in the air.
And in places outside the arena, such as temporary accommodation areas, dining areas, and the junction area where the two forces reside, all kinds of overt and covert fights, silent but extremely dangerous frictions are even more commonplace.
Coupled with the Qiankun Pharmaceutical scandal, the image of all nine super companies has been damaged.
In the Survival Committee, the voices of the military congressmen and homeland congressmen suddenly increased.
There is a strong intention to use the topic to repeal the "Enclosure Act" in one go and challenge the authority of the colonial MPs.
The storm from Dragon City inevitably hit the Kirigakure Territory.
The smell of gunpowder inside and outside Ruin No. 2 is getting stronger and stronger, which is inevitable.
Meng Chao was not expecting this phenomenon.
He predicted that on the issue of "how to divide the legacy of monster civilization", the major forces in Dragon City would definitely have some bargaining and fight openly and secretly.
But I didn't expect that the struggle would be so fierce, and the conflicts between the parties would reach a fever pitch.
"Are you mistaken? In the previous life, Dragon City was not so chaotic?" Meng Chao scratched his head.
If you think about it carefully, in the previous life of Dragon City, the Red Dragon Army was weak and unable to compete with super corporations.
But perhaps more importantly, the Dragon City in the previous life was a tragic victory. In the protracted tug-of-war, the blood of the Dragon City civilization was almost drained, and the bottles and jars of the monster civilization were basically smashed.
The people who survived could only sit among the ruins and lick each other's wounds. This comradeship of life and death was naturally so strong that even if they fought, there would be no spoils at all, which would make them hungry.
They fight like wild dogs to the death!
"Humans, it's true that we can only share hardships together, but not wealth and honor!"
Meng Chao was so anxious that he scratched his head and ears.
For the first time, I had the thought that "the fact that Dragon City Civilization won the monster war so easily may not be 100% a good thing."
But with his own strength, it is obvious that he cannot suppress the imminent moves of the major forces.
I can only repeatedly persuade my fellow members of the Broken Star Society who are also cultivating in the No. 2 Ruins, my brothers from the Martial Temple, collaborators from the nine major super enterprises, and my classmates from the Five Schools Alliance and Longcheng University. It is normal and benign for everyone to have differences and disputes.
Competition and moderate competition can promote the development of Dragon City civilization.
But you must not take the grievances and grievances in the ring outside the ring, let alone solve the problems that should be solved in the survival committee with words and words in life, and solve them with fists and swords.
Remember, no matter how we fight, we are all our own, the only compatriots from Earth living in another world. In the near future, we will fight side by side on the magnificent journey into the depths of another world.
Living and dying together.
Although in front of him, classmates, members, brothers and partners all gave him face.
But even Meng Chao himself felt that this rhetoric lacked salt and jealousy and was unconvincing.
Extraordinaries from all major forces are still rushing into the arena, fighting to the death for resources, opportunities, the status of their respective organizations in Dragon City, and the quota of ancient power and monster heritage...
But after one or both parties were carried off the ring with blood, bruises, or even dying, the hatred they had formed remained for a long time, wandering around the ruins and inside and outside the sinkhole like resentful spirits.
Meng Chao faintly heard the news that there were already extraordinary people from several organizations. Not content with the competition in the ring, they fought happily several times in the dark jungle deep in the sinkhole.
Naturally, such a fight can neither vent hatred nor solve any problems. It can only deepen and intensify the conflicts between the two parties.
Finally, when the smell of gunpowder was so strong that even the senior researchers in the deepest part of the No. 2 ruins, who were deaf to what was happening outside the window, were unable to concentrate on exploring the ancient mysteries, a big mess broke out on the ground.
The incident took place in the ten thousand-person dining hall specially set up for the purpose of exploring the No. 2 ruins.
The tradition of Dragon City is that extraordinary people must eat on a large scale.
Whenever a battle is launched or a large-scale engineering construction project is carried out, there are logistical support facilities such as a "canteen for 5,000 people" or a "canteen for 10,000 people".
This is because many monster materials are difficult to craft carefully.
Large-scale cooking equipment is required to stew it thoroughly, stew it thoroughly, and stew out the psychic substances contained in the bone marrow.
For example, the doomsday beast "Magic Mountain" is hundreds of meters long.
Or the "Tyrant Mammoth", a hellish ferocious beast with rough skin and thick flesh that weighs hundreds of tons.
It's obviously impossible to cook them in a regular pressure cooker.
And extraordinary people are all big-bellied men.
For a strong person in the Heaven Realm, eating dozens of kilograms of monster flesh and blood in one meal is just a routine operation.
The cafeteria is too small and the cooking efficiency is not high. Extraordinary people cannot eat happily, which also affects their scientific research and cultivation.
In order to facilitate the development and utilization of the No. 2 ruins.
All the extraordinary beings who went deep into the tiankeng ate in this large dining hall where monster flesh and blood and natural treasures were cooked 24 hours a day.
The elites and strong men of all major organizations are here to meet each other with their heads down.
