If we want to make an analogy, Flash City is similar to Los Angeles on Earth.
Among the world's three largest airship manufacturing companies, 'Windless Bird' and 'Hiram' are located in the city. At the same time, the food and clothing industries here are also extremely developed. Due to the world's largest airship airport and important ports,
The port is located in this city, and its cargo throughput ranks first in the world.
After more than seven hours of train ride, they finally arrived at Shem City, but Heather's destination was not here.
The travel writer Guo Gai whom I met on the train had already got off the train midway and didn't even dare to say hello. It seemed that he also understood that his hidden intention was discovered by Heather, so he ran away.
However, Heather didn't take this person to heart at all, and instead focused all her attention on the novel.
After leaving the train station, Heather chose the city's very famous restaurant, High Rock Fireplace Hall, as the battle location for her dinner based on the recommendation in the "Flash City Travel Guide".
As the name suggests, Gaoyan Hearth Palace is a restaurant that specializes in barbecue. It is a barbecue restaurant that specializes in using open-fire ovens. The whole sausage, slightly charred on the outside, is connected into a piece of ribs and tender and juicy beef brisket waiting to be cut.
, these dazzling meat dishes are like Christmas tree lights, happily hung in circles around the extra large open fire oven in the center of the restaurant.
The recommended menu that the store is proud of is the 'Grand Course'. The oversized plate is stacked with thick slices of tender and juicy grilled beef brisket, crispy charred skin mixed salad, trembling pure meat sausages, sweet
Ribs with rich sauce, a bowl of 32 kinds of sauce (unlimited refills), kimchi, baked potatoes cut in half, and a bottle of ice-cold freshly picked out of the ice cubes
beer.
Heather had to admit that this meal was really enjoyable.
Arrive at Hiram International Airport at 8:40 pm, which is located at the northernmost tip of Shem City and even the Eurubiian Continent. As long as you reach the airship from here, you can go to the Sky Arena.
There are no airplanes in Hunter World, but there are a lot of airships.
The airship ticket worth 100,000 ringgit is indeed worth the money. The super-giant airship inside is as big as a football field and the speed is not slow. Although the airship meal of Hailam Airlines is simple, it tastes quite good, especially the coffee and
The cake is one of a kind.
Ding dong!
"Dear passengers, thank you for taking the airship of Hailam Airlines. The Sky Arena will be arriving soon. Please do not leave your seat and walk around. There will be a slight vibration when you land. Please don't worry..."
Heather lifted her blindfold, stretched out comfortably, and looked out the window of the airship beside her.
The weather was not very good, and a huge tower with various buildings and exhibition stands on the surface stood in the sky. From a distance, it looked like a giant sword stirring up the thick clouds.
The Sky Arena, with a total of 251 floors and a height of 991 meters, is the fourth tallest building in the world.
Following the crowds of people walking out of the aviation terminal, Heather found dozens of special buses parked at the door, leading directly to the Sky Arena. The Sky Arena is located in the 'Josk Zone' of the Achifer continent, adjacent to the Republic of Bartokia, and all surrounding public
Facilities, residences and even cities are completely built around the Sky Arena.
Sky Arena, bottom of the tower.
Heather looked at the almost endless queue of people and couldn't help scratching her head: "Is it so lively?"
I lowered my head and glanced at the brochure in my hand. This is a free brochure distributed by the tour guide to everyone in line.
[There are no strict rules, as long as you can defeat your opponent, you can advance. 】
[Whenever a player advances, the floor he is on will rise, and the bonus will also increase as the floor climbs.]
【On average, four thousand people challenge higher floors every day.】
【More than one billion spectators enter the venue every year, and there are all kinds of facilities in the venue.】
[High-level warriors can even own an entire floor.]
[This is a holy land for barbarians and a paradise for fighters.]
The queue looked long, but it actually moved very quickly. Within an hour it was Heather's turn.
"Welcome to the Sky Arena, please fill in the information here. Because it is related to the opponent and difficulty, please fill it in truthfully to ensure your safety."
At the registration window, a female receptionist wearing a uniform with a fist pattern on it, with a sweet appearance and a gentle voice, handed the form to Heather with both hands.
Name, age and gender are not issues, the main thing is the last item [Fighting Experience]. Heather thought about it and filled in [15 years].
In this case, you can arrange for yourself a referee with excellent vision and a more interesting opponent, right?
Only when you walk into the lobby on the first floor of the Sky Arena can you really realize how huge a building this is. In addition to the hall that can accommodate thousands of people, the first floor is also divided into several 'small' venues, each with its own
number.
Heather, whose number is [2415], was assigned to Division F. This is a huge square arena, with hundreds of people sitting scattered in the four directions of the auditorium. Among them are contestants who are preparing to play and some who are placing bets.
The screaming audience.
There are 16 square stages arranged 4X4 in the center of the field. On each stage, two people are fighting hard, and each stage has its own referee for review.
"Contestants No. 2415 and 1793 please come to Arena K."
After sitting in the stands for a while, it was Heather's turn to come on. It seemed that the computer drew the number immediately.
Amidst the noisy and noisy cheers of the audience in the stands, Heather and a giant man with bulging muscles walked onto the ring. It was not clear who the audience's cheers were for.
"It's Montel! This guy is so lucky, his opponent is actually a skinny monkey!"
"Kid, don't be so scared that you wet your pants, hahaha!"
"Let me do it! This is the best chance to advance!"
Heather's mouth twitched, well, it seems that the cheers were not for her.
The squinting referee stood beside the ring and explained sternly:
"In the competition on the first floor, the strength of the contestants will be judged based on victory or defeat. Please try your best to show your strength within three minutes."
"Then...begin!"
The giant man known as Montel cracked the knuckles of his hands and made a muffled sound: "Boy, don't blame me for being harsh, go to the hospital and lie down for two months!"
The whole person was like an angry male rhinoceros and rushed towards Heather with its head lowered. The heavy footsteps kept making loud noises in the ring. Very good, just one punch to KO this little four-eyed monkey!
He punched Heather, but before he could be proud, he found that there was no actual touch on the fist. He just hit Heather's afterimage. Then Montel's stomach felt numb at first, and as the scene in front of him became
He blurred and quickly retreated, and then he realized that he was flying.
The noise in the stands suddenly stopped like a hen being strangled.
From the perspective of the referee and the spectators, a giant man with a height of more than two meters was blasted several meters high from the ring by a punch, and slammed into a solid wall dozens of meters away like a cannonball.
This kind of visual impact is really a bit excessive.
"Don't worry, he's still alive."
Heather looked at the dull-looking referee and chuckled, thinking this was a fish fry, right?
"No. 2415, you can go directly to the 50th floor."
Faced with the "thoughts" deliberately emitted by Heather at this time, the referee did not notice it at all. He just took the instrument in his hand and printed out a ticket and handed it to Heather: "Please continue to work hard."
That's right, why would a referee who could see Nian go down to the first floor to watch novices pecking each other? Heather, who felt like she was ogling a blind man, took the ticket, with her number and floor printed on it.
"This way, please."
She is another beautiful waitress, and Sky Arena knows her well. Heather followed this lively waitress to the elevator, and her ears were filled with the pleasant chirping voice:
"In the Sky Arena, the level up to the 200th floor is based on the tenth floor. That is to say, if you win on the fiftieth floor, you can be promoted to the sixtieth floor. If you lose, you will be demoted to the fortieth floor.
There are even private rooms after you pass the 100th floor."
After finally getting rid of the lively waitress, Heather reached the 60th floor through the elevator.
The atmosphere here is completely different from the first level. There are fewer players, but they are all experienced players.
I went to the reception window and showed my ticket, and the bonus I got was only a pitiful 152 ring nip.
"That's enough to buy a can of juice."
Heather reluctantly stuffed the coins into her pocket and said to the usher: "Please arrange the next game for me as soon as possible."
"Huh? Don't you need a rest for this player?" The receptionist was a little surprised. Didn't this person just come up from the lower level? He must be very tired.
"No need at all, please help me arrange it."
"Okay, please wait...then please go to the player lounge with this ticket."
There were only a few rows of lockers and benches in the simple lounge, and the room was full of contestants. As soon as Heather entered, she attracted the attention of many contestants. Everyone was wondering how this thin, four-eyed frog could be
If you put it on the fiftieth floor, do you bribe the referee?
"Mr. Tuoma Di, Mr. Long Simen, please come to Arena A on the fifty-fifth floor."
"Mr. Mario, Ms. Bowser, please come to Arena B on the fifty-seventh floor."
Huh? Did you hear some strange names just now? Heather sat in the lounge and waited boredly. It seemed that there were different arenas scattered on every ten floors for players to fight.
About twenty minutes later, Heather heard her name come on the radio.
"Mr. Dacado, Mr. Heather, please come to Arena C on the 59th floor."
Arena C on the fifty-ninth floor is different from the first floor. The auditorium that can accommodate thousands of people is already full. The lights are shining on the only arena in the center. The two sides about to fight are waiting for the referee to give instructions.
"Dear viewers! I've kept you waiting for so long!"
"The next game will definitely not let you down!"
The female host wearing a headset spoke very quickly to arouse the audience's emotions:
"The participating parties should not be underestimated! Because both of them are strong men who performed well on the first level and jumped directly to the fiftieth level! Now the big screen will broadcast the previous battle between the two."
Four large screens hanging on the top of the ring simultaneously broadcast the battle between Heather and the man named Dakado.
"Mr. Dacado is like an immovable mountain. No matter what kind of attack falls on him, it will not leave a single scratch! The wind of the counterattack can even blow up the curtain above the auditorium!"
"Mr. Heather's movements are as fast as lightning. His extremely fast speed can create after-image effects. His lean body contains infinite strange power. He can hit a home run against a giant man weighing 200 kilograms!"
"Everyone, are you ready to place your bet? Then, press the button now!"
drop--!!
The screen shows that the odds for Heather and Dacado are 2.075 and 1.500 respectively.
"Judging from the betting results, Dakado is more favored! Sure enough, it's because of the invincible defense that everyone has more confidence in Dakado, right?"
Tsk, I was underestimated.
Heather moved her arms and looked across. The man named Dakado was a strong man about two meters tall. His bare upper body had no scars at all, and his shaved scalp was green. At this time, his eyes were also burning.
Staring at Heather, full of confidence.
"This round will be conducted in three rounds of three minutes, with a points knockout system."
