Chapter 117 The New Year's Fighting Tournament Begins
The duration of the New Year Fighting Competition every year is actually not fixed. The term “one month” includes the celebrations before and after.
How long the competition will last depends on how many female mutants are captured from outside this year. In good years, hundreds can be captured; in bad times, it can stop with only forty or fifty.
Like this year, if we catch a hundred of them and play two games a day, we will consume about nine or ten female mutants. Calculated this way, it will be enough to keep the game busy for more than ten days.
In the atmosphere of national celebration, even before the fighting match started, the items surrounding the match had already started a hot sale in the Garden of Eden.
Some of the most popular female players, their images have been made into posters or pendants, and are welcomed by many young people; the data analysis of each player and their opponents has been compiled into a digital manual, and each resident only needs a little
Their light curtains can be purchased and viewed - based on data sheets and lengthy analyzes by experts on TV, Eden residents can bet on various female players.
And these products that are designed for before the game are all small and insignificant; the real big deal comes after the game.
Like Hui Chuyan, who is number one on the popularity list, her specimen has been ordered by the rich early; according to the customer's request, no matter what the person became when he died, the corpse can be restored to its original state - the corpse can be dissected
After opening it, removing the internal organs, eroding the soft tissue, and drying the skin, and adding modeling technology, each female mutant can be said to be lifelike. Relying on this, many taxidermy companies have been supported.
Those who cannot afford the specimens can collect the weapons used to kill the female mutants, their torn clothes, and game videos... In short, the New Year Fighting Competition is the most enduring, grand, and hottest event in the Garden of Eden.
An entertainment industry.
"As the best sons of God, we have become human beings standing on the commanding heights in the world. Because of this, we can create the greatest spiritual feast in the world..."
... Lin Sanjiu stood in the capsule and quietly listened to a male voice's review and introduction of the New Year Fighting Competition on the TV outside.
She stood in a capsule that was less than one square meter in size. She could not walk or lie down. There was a board protruding from the wall of the capsule. When she was tired, she could only stand and lean on it. It was barely enough to rest.
Next to her, there are countless identical capsules, each of which contains a female player with her hands tied behind her back.
Carding the binding rope on her wrist can be done in minutes; after taking off the rope, as long as she puts her hand on the capsule, she will be free immediately - in fact, as long as it is a
The whole thing is touchable and weighs no more than one ton, so nothing in this world can trap her.
But Lin Sanjiu didn't move.
The fighting competition arena is extremely heavily guarded. This is one of the reasons why she has not acted rashly yet - hundreds of armed soldiers, holding weapons, stand upright in every corner; there are countless black gun barrels hanging on the ceiling, all aimed at
The capsule area and the competition field are accurate. It can be imagined that as long as the evolved people make a slight change, these forces will never hesitate for a moment.
A total of one hundred capsules are placed behind a huge oval arena, separated by alloy railings. On the other side of the arena are rows of spectator seats that rise in steps.
If you go there, it can accommodate nearly ten thousand people.
Today is the first day of the competition. A group of female players who have received the least attention are competing, so the ticket sales are also the worst. There are only three or five people sitting in a long row of audience seats.
For all the venues combined, less than half of the seats were sold.
Not just today - the tickets for the first few days are always unsaleable; they may be bought by the company as a holiday benefit, or become a not-so-valuable souvenir. After the third day, the ticket price
It will soar at an exponential rate. In the last two days, even if you spend a lot of money, it will be hard to get a ticket.
The small number of people was expected; but what Lin Sanjiu found a little strange was that all the audience members were wearing a standard hooded robe, covered from head to toe, not even their faces were exposed.
, everyone wears transparent glasses.
why is that?
Her doubts did not last long.
Because the voice of the male host just sounded in the field at this time: "Dear audience friends, I wish you all a Happy New Year! Welcome to the first game of our New Year Fighting Competition. We sincerely hope that after watching this round of competition,
Everyone can go home satisfied! Now, we are about to invite the players from both sides to appear. Before they enter, please check whether your radiation protection suits are fully worn..."
Lin Sanjiu immediately rushed to the capsule, staring at the audience and adjusting their clothes.
...Yes, basically all the combatants were captured from outside, and they still have residual radiation in their bodies. The residents here are very precious about their lives...
The five capsules slid slowly towards the direction of the arena. Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment. After taking a closer look, he realized that the hundred capsules were all arranged on a slide rail. Along the slide rail, the capsules would automatically
Bring the players onto the field.
With a "pop", the capsule doors opened at the same time. After a while, someone cautiously stretched out their heads to look around - one after another, several pale female players slowly walked out of the capsule, but they were covered with
There is no binding rope anymore.
Even if there are people who don't want to come out of the capsule, Eden has a solution: after a burst of electric shock, one player's body collapsed into a ball, trembling and fell out of the capsule. The electric shock was probably very violent, because she fell
He lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. His face turned pale and he couldn't even move.
This scene was obviously done for the ninety-five women behind, in order to scare the monkeys.
Regardless of life or death, as soon as the five people landed on the ground, the capsule immediately slid off the field.
"...The female contestants have already entered the stage! I wonder what kind of opponent they will face today?" The host's enthusiastic tone was accompanied by a sparse response from the audience.
Several groups of close-ups of female contestants flashed on the big screen in the distance. The expressions on each of their faces were reflected in Lin Sanjiu's eyes, which actually made her afraid to look any further, and she immediately lowered her eyes.
Opposite the female contestant, a dark black prison car slowly drove up.
The whole body of the prison vehicle was made of heavy steel, so dense that there was no gap. It seemed to weigh at least five or six tons. However, the upper part of such a heavy armored prison vehicle was trembling slightly, as if it was being squeezed inside.
Something hit it and rocked back and forth.
When the female contestants saw this scene, their faces turned pale.
Seeing the prison car stop, the host, who was unknown where he was, spoke. His tone was high and cheerful: "Okay. Now we have our challengers!"
Lin Sanjiu held her breath and stared at the door of the prison car without blinking. It had been almost a week since she arrived in the apocalyptic world of Eden. So many things had happened in this week that she was actually called
I have no time to think about one thing - why are there no fallen species in the Garden of Eden?
Even if the first batch of fallen species were all dead, there should still be evolved talents like Lin Sanjiu who were unable to generate radiation resistance. There should not be even a single fallen species that cannot be seen...
From behind the door, a pale...limb stretched out.
We clearly didn't see them in the "content playback"... But now, one by one - Lin Sanjiu could only think of this quantifier - hairless, distorted human bodies, staggered out of the prison car.
To say that they are human bodies requires a little imagination. At least she has never seen such a deformed "person" in the past. The deformed parts of each fallen species are different. There are two-thirds of a head,
They were all occupied by a pair of blood-red compound eyes; there was one whose whole body was in a twisted shape and covered with tumors. There was no face anywhere.
The only thing they have in common is the eyes that are staring at the female contestant and the nostrils that are constantly twitching - if anyone can figure out where the eyes and nose are.
The degenerates with crooked bodies got out of the prison car one after another, and the number of them became more and more, eight, nine, ten... They still hadn't finished walking. The faces of the female contestants became increasingly ugly.
, a total of nearly thirty fallen species emerged.
"As we all know, the female mutants have been sprayed with attractants..." The host's eloquent explanation sounded around the fighting arena, and every word was clear and delivered without any noise.
Lin Sanjiu heard. "And we also checked carefully and confiscated all the props they carried... Just like in the past, you will witness a fair and exciting competition..."
"Our New Year's fighting game combines the essence of some confrontational sports called 'football' and 'basketball' a hundred years ago. It can be said that the fighting game has made great improvements on their basis... Oh! I didn't expect it.
Contestant No. 7’s first reaction is to run away!”
"It seems that her ability is not of practical value... Haha, she is quite fast. Come on, catch up with her! Let's take a look at the situation of the others - two mutants have been surrounded by many people.
, it’s almost hard to see their shadows. Friends in front of the TV, I wonder if you can see them?"
"Oh, this is so refreshing. No. 32 can actually regenerate its limbs like a gecko?...Oh, but the fallen species immediately caught up with me...the spine! That's the spine with a big piece behind it.
The back was caught! The spine is still intact, oh, it’s still dancing! The audience’s shouts were very enthusiastic, it is indeed a breed that has been strengthened in our laboratory!”
"Contestant No. 26 actually rushed towards the auditorium and was knocked unconscious by the electric grid... Arena maintenance staff, please be prepared to clean up the remaining flesh and blood..."
Seeing that half of the game was not over yet, two of the five contestants were already dead. The host, who had been explaining for a long time, leaned back in his chair, took a sip of tea, and then smacked his lips in dissatisfaction.
"There were no sponsors in the first few games, so it was really boring." (To be continued)

I'm rushing out today's update, there's no hope of tomorrow's update... I'm leaving!
The socialite is going to be a bridesmaid! For nothing!
