There was silence in the arena that accommodated hundreds of thousands of spectators. Everyone stared at the winner standing on the ring in stunned silence, as if they couldn't believe what had just happened.
The super-popular professional star master Tao Zhiyaoyao, who has a record of 199 victories and ranks among the top 20 in the arena in winning percentage, was actually defeated, and she was defeated at the hands of an unknown paladin!
There is no doubt that this is one of the biggest upsets since the opening of the Arena!
The next moment, countless exclamations and curses exploded in the stands, sweeping through the entire venue like a storm and surging above the competitive arena.
Their beloved goddess was actually killed, and the way of killing was so cruel and...obscene!
However, no matter how fierce the wave of anger was around him, it had no effect on Zhao Xi, who was still standing in the ring, because he couldn't hear the voices in the stands at all, and it was useless to have thousands of people shouting at the top of their lungs.
He was looking at the 100 gold coins that had just been transferred into his account with a smile on his face. This was the bet to pay for Tao Zhiyaoyao's defeat. According to the current market conditions, it could be exchanged for almost 12,000 yuan!
In the past, Zhao Xi didn't pay much attention to money. He believed that as long as he had enough food and clothing, no amount of money could buy real happiness.
However, since he left his hometown and came to the big city of Shanghai, Comrade Zhao finally understood a truth, that is, money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible.
Without money, Lin Mei's Yangmei Studio will definitely not be able to continue to operate. Without money, Yangmei Team will be disbanded. And without money, they can't even afford to live in the basement where there is no sunlight all day long and the air is polluted.
So it only took a few minutes to earn this money, which made Zhao Xi really happy. He suddenly discovered that making money and spending money was actually very fun. Making big money with the help of his best ability was even more fun.
Endless fun.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
At this moment, one after another forced messages popped up on the virtual light screen in front of Zhao Xi, densely stacked on top of each other, with dozens of them in total!
All the information is a challenge to him, including warriors, knights, mages, archers, thieves... all of them are available. This kind of highest priority display requires the purchase of special props. Zhao Xi remembers that there are no similar props at all.
Cheap.
Looks like you've stung a hornet's nest?
Zhao Xi touched his chin and smiled. He clicked on each one with interest.
But what made Zhao Xi very disappointed was that no one placed a bet, and the record rankings of these challengers were not very high.
Having just had a full meal, would you still be interested in steamed buns and meat buns? The answer is of course no. Zhao Xi, who had increased his appetite, refused them all and went offline directly.
Is it fun to beat up children? No!
It doesn't matter if he's offline. The guys who spent a lot of money to request the challenge are going crazy.
These people were basically members of the Flower Protector Knights who were sitting in the floating stands, especially the black-armored warrior who had had an argument with Zhao Xi. His face was ashen and he cracked his knuckles.
"Holy shit, hit and run!"
"Boss, this matter must not be left alone!"
"Find him, we will kill him in the game and avenge Tao Zhiyaoyao!"
The members of the Knights were furious, and they all gnashed their teeth and wanted to skin Zhao Xi and cramp him.
The black-armored warrior said with a sullen face: "Stop talking. Issue a reward order."
His voice sounded calm, but everyone could hear the anger hidden in his words.
"The boss is wise!"
A group of knights members cheered loudly, all of them seemed to have seen Zhao Xi being treated so miserable.
They have such confidence because they have never lost in the field they are best at!
Zhao Xi, who had just logged off, didn't know that he was being noticed by a group of boring and rich guys. He took off his virtual equipment, got out of bed, and left the room.
Zhao Xi was about to go out to a large supermarket to look at fitness equipment. The day before yesterday, he saw some training equipment suitable for his own use there. He was reluctant to buy it at first. Now that he has just made a fortune, he can naturally consider buying two pieces.
Ye Qianqian, Fang Xu, An Xiaohai and the Ye brothers were all still in the living room. The projection screen on the wall displayed posts from the game forum, and a small window was opened for video playback.
Zhao Xi had just walked down the stairs when seven pairs of eyes looked at him. All of them had direct eyes, even the only beautiful girl present!
Zhao Xi couldn't help but touch his face. After making sure that there were no flowers on his face, he asked in confusion: "What's wrong? You don't recognize me anymore?"
Fang Xu swallowed hard, pointed at the wall projection carefully and said, "Brother Daniu, is this ZDN0917 you?"
Zhao Xi turned around and saw that what was playing on the projection screen was the video replay of the duel between him and Tao Zhiyaoyao.
He immediately laughed: "Yes, I won 100 gold coins this time. Well, there should be bonuses and dividends."
Players watching the battle in the arena can bet on a certain duel. The highest bet is 1 gold coin and the lowest is 1 copper coin. The winner can split the loser's bet equally. The system will extract a 10% handling fee. In addition, the winner will also receive 1
% bonus bonus.
Although the ratio of 1% is very low, the number of players who participate in gambling is huge, and the accumulation is very considerable. This is also an important source of income for many professional star players.
However, Zhao Xi went offline too quickly, so he hasn’t seen this income come in yet, and he doesn’t know how much it is yet.
When he first logged into the unrestricted intermediate area, he still used his previous ID number and did not cover up his appearance and equipment. Others could not see it, but Fang Xu and the others were very familiar with it, so there was nothing strange about him recognizing it.
He was just a little curious: "How did you find it?"
"Boss!" Fang Xu showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Do you know how many people are paying attention to your battle online? Tens of millions, tens of millions of people!"
Tens of millions of people are indeed a lot, but now Zhao Xi has become immune to the popularity index of "Glory", so he is not very surprised. Instead, he is regretful: "It's a pity, there is no copyright fee to get."
"Brother Daniel!"
Fang Xu wailed loudly: "I kneel down for you, do you know that you have caused big trouble?"
Zhao Xiqi asked: "What's the trouble? Could it be that Tao Zhiyaoyao can come to reality and assassinate me?"
As he spoke, he himself laughed.
Ye Qianqian snorted twice and said: "Of course Sister Yaoyao will not cause trouble for you, but those so-called Flower Guard Knights will never give up. You have offended them badly this time, and they are looking for you.
Woolen cloth!"
In order to confirm Ye Qianqian's words, Fang Xu quickly called up another post.
"Flower Protector Knights Bounty Order" - Bounty target: Arena number ZDN0917 player, level 17 Paladin game real ID, bounty amount: 100 gold coins!
Ye Qianqian sneered: "Although these guys are boring, they just have a lot of money. Players who have offended them in the past have been treated badly in the game, and some have deleted their accounts and played again!"
Zhao Xi felt very unbelievable: "The glorious map is so big, and I can run far away if I can't beat it. Do they have the ability to keep chasing after me?"
Ye Qianqian said: "Hua Manlou, the leader of the Flower Guard Knights, has a legendary piece of equipment called a space chain, which can locate the exact location of a preset target. After locking the target, the target will not be able to use the main plane teleportation array!"
Zhao Xi sneered and said: "So what? There are always restrictions on such equipment, right? It can't be used without restrictions, and at worst, if I hide in the city and don't go out, he can't kill me, right?"
A sarcastic smile appeared on Ye Qianqian's lips: "There are indeed restrictions. As long as you are killed and returned to the novice plane, the space chain will lose its effect. I can also tell you that Huamanlou also has a special piece of equipment called the Death God.
sickle!"
"The Reaper of Death can also preset a death target. Those who own the Reaper of Death can form a death squad of no more than 5 people to hunt down the target, and are not restricted by the city's safety zone. The target is killed once
Drop 1 level, 100% drop of 1 piece of equipment!”
She looked at Zhao Xi with a playful look: "Now, what else do you want to say?"
Zhao Xi said: "Damn it!"
