The four people went straight down the steps, and it was a different scene when they went down, because the entrance was directly above the ring, about fifteen meters away, and the stairs extended diagonally to the edge. Through the protective barbed wire, the scene instantly became clear.
stand up.
The concave-shaped venue has sloping steps on all sides, one step at a time, at least hundreds of steps, showing a trapezoid shape. Each level has rows of seats, at least a hundred people, that is, one seat on one side can hold 10,000 spectators.
, and there were 40,000 people on all sides, and the seats were all packed at the moment.
In the middle is a square arena with a side of about ten meters. There is a ditch with a diameter of five meters between the arena and the spectator stand. There is no protective net on the ditch, but roars of lions and tigers can be heard from below.
Howl.
The spectator stand above the ditch is protected, lest the spectators accidentally fall in and feed the lions and tigers, but the ring is empty, so the contestants who enter the ring have to take it easy.
There are many masks on the edge. The masks are free for spectators to choose. Of course, you don’t have to wear them, but most people will wear them. Many of the people who come here are respectable people, and some even come from various countries.
Political dignitaries, their identities cannot be exposed.
Tang Long chose a mask of Guan Gong, Ivan took the mask of the Statue of Liberty, while Dayong and Man Jiang chose clown masks.
Just as a group of seven or eight people stood up and were about to leave, Tang Long and the four of them went over and sat down. There were large screens on the four walls, broadcasting live broadcasts of the arena, enough for every spectator to see clearly.
"How do you play this?" Tang Long pointed to the iron cage directly above the ring.
"This is called a cage. Contestants can choose to duel in this cage. This is also called a fight to the death! One of the two people who enter the duel must die before the cage will be opened!" Ivan said, slapping his lower lip.
"Then if you don't close the cage, you won't die in the ring?"
"That's not necessarily the case. If you are defeated and the other party is willing to let you go, you can survive, such as giving the other party money or some kind of benefit. Otherwise, the chance of death is also very high. You will be beaten to death by the other party, or pushed.
Entering the lion's den, there are many tigers and lions down there, but the tigers and lions are separated, and they have been hungry for several days!"
"Oh, I understand, then how to place a bet?" Tang Long looked at the chair next to him. It was very advanced. There were many buttons next to it, as well as an LCD display screen, and most importantly, a credit card machine!
"Every contestant has a number. As long as you start the machine, you can see their number, past record, and odds! If you want to bet on a certain player, you can just place a bet on the screen.
Click on this player, and the option to place a bet will appear next to it. After clicking in, the game he is about to participate in will pop up, enter the amount, and then pop up the banking interface, which is the same as online banking!" Old Ivan said, while
Tang Long demonstrated it to him next to his chair.
And Dayong is a computer expert. This thing is too simple for him. He can take a glance at it. Man Jiang can't, so he carefully watched Ivan's operation.
"When the transaction is completed, a card will be spit out. This card contains your betting information. After the game, you can use this card to redeem your prize!"
"Understood! Hey, not bad, next is the top 16 of the boxing championship finals!" Tang Long saw on the screen the match that was about to start in an hour.
"Yes, the thirty-two people who were shortlisted in the preliminary round were divided into four groups. Each group of eight people competed on the same stage. Only four people were left to enter the top sixteen. It's cruel to say!"
"It's very cruel. There are Thai boxing champions, Japanese ninjas, Indian monks, mercenaries, full-time killers, and there are actually Shaolin monks among them!" Tang Long flipped through the players' information with great interest. There were two people whose nationalities were Chinese.
, one is a Shaolin Temple monk No. 9, and a retired special forces soldier No. 10!
"The preliminary round was held on each continent, survival of the fittest, and the winner represented the entire continent. Asia had the most participating countries. Three people from Japan were shortlisted, one from Korea, two from China, one from Thailand, one from India, and one from North Korea.
One person, we have four in Russia!" At the end of the sentence, old Ivan gave a thumbs up, obviously very proud.
"Haha, old Ivan, look at how proud you are, the number of people doesn't mean anything, the key is ability!"
"Exactly, being able to enter the top thirty-two is also a manifestation of ability!" Old Ivan was not convinced.
At the beginning of the first group of games, eight selected players entered the ring from all directions. They were located in the four corners and in the middle of the four lines. In this group, player No. 10 came on stage. He was a retired soldier of China.
The bell rang and the game began. The audience held their breath. Everyone looked at the ring attentively. The ring was full of light, but the lights in the spectator stand were out.
The eight people were all tense and nervous. Who made the first move? They were looking for other people's weaknesses. The most shameful thing was that there were two Japanese people in this group. They seemed to know each other, so they asked
Get close to each other, attack and defend each other, and bully others.
"Fuck, shameless!" Tang Long cursed.
The other opponents in the ring seemed to be aware of the seriousness of the problem and were looking for the possibility of cooperation. Number 10 looked at the North Korean players, the two nodded, and the temporary alliance was established.
Uncle Hei has no one to form a team, and the same goes for the Koreans. There are two other European players, and the two of them also formed a temporary alliance.
Three minutes into the game, no one moved, but they were all sweating. The two Japanese were already close to each other, and they were ready to start hunting. One was on guard, one was attacking, and the others instantly became nervous.
Roar! Uncle Hei roared like a gorilla, because he was closest to the two Japanese people and the pressure was too great. He was ready to strike first. He opened his big palm like a basin and slapped one of the Japanese people.
The two Japanese people were very calm because they were in a team. They took action at the same time. One blocked Uncle Hei's hand, and the other half-crouched and performed the monkey-stealing peach move.
"Ah!" Uncle Hei howled miserably. His peach was picked off by the little devil, and it was all bloody. The little devil's hand was wet and bloody, but the corners of their mouths were raised, and the peach picker was disgusting.
Lick the palm of your hand with your tongue.
"Sayoulala!" The two of them kicked up at the same time and kicked Uncle Hei down.
Roar! Ahhh! A lion's roar, a series of miserable howls, and finally the sound gradually became smaller and silent. Everyone was sweating in shock. Some people screamed in fright, and some screamed in excitement. They all knew that Uncle Hei was killed.
