Du Hong said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether Brother Ding can show what he can do to convince me?"
In this kind of underground mining area, a leader like Du Hong may not be the one with the highest force value, but he is definitely the one with the most powerful methods, so Ding Meng did not be polite to him. He turned around and looked around, and suddenly pointed his finger.
To the two people in the crowd: "The two of them should be above you here."
Du Hong was a little surprised: "Good eyesight."
The two people Ding Meng was referring to were a man and a woman. The man was short and unattractive, and was very inconspicuous among the crowd. The woman was another gorgeous beauty besides A Fang. This woman was also wearing the same outfit.
The imperial military uniform, but the clothes seemed to have been washed many times and looked a little white.
"Meng Chen, Tong Yao!" Du Hong took the initiative to introduce. Among his people, these two are the strongest now. In order to compete for area 30, the two more powerful masters died.
On the arena.
Ding Meng suddenly laughed: "I wonder what the rules of the arena are?"
Tong Yao took the initiative to step forward: "That's it!"
While she was speaking, she reached Ding Meng's flank in a flash, and with a backhand strike, she slashed with a knife, aiming at Ding Meng's temple.
To be honest, this woman's basic skills are quite good. When Ding Meng was a senior warrior, he was not as proficient as her with swordsmanship. Not only was he fast enough to dodge everything, but his style was quite fierce.
With a "pop", Ding Meng stretched out his palm and caught her palm lightly.
At the same time as he caught it, there were three extremely slight "papapapa" sounds, which seemed to be the explosion of firecrackers in the darkness. Tongyao took several steps back, her steps seemed a little unsteady.
This time, not only others were surprised, but Tong Yao herself also showed a surprised expression. There seemed to be an invisible rebound force on Ding Meng's palm, which directly knocked her away.
Tong Yao glanced at Du Hong again, and Du Hong nodded calmly. Tong Yao was a light-speed source energy user with the potential to break through as a combat master, but she was easily repelled. This proved that Ding Meng was at least a combat master.
Level master.
In fact, he didn't know that Ding Meng didn't want to go too far. If he really wanted to fight back, this woman would be a corpse now.
"Brother Ding is so skilled!" Du Hong looked very happy. After all, he guessed correctly. Someone who can stay underground for several months without coming up is definitely not a simple person.
Ding Meng said calmly: "You can tell me now, what benefits can I get?"
Du Hong said: "If Brother Ding can win in the arena, we can give priority to the crystal-laden matrix. Of course, I can guarantee Brother Ding's interests."
His words did not appeal to Ding Meng at all. Ding Meng simply said: "I have conditions. If you want me to participate in the arena, when choosing the crystal matrix, I must choose it myself."
"No problem!" This request was not difficult for Du Hong.
Ding Meng continued: "No matter what I choose, I will take half of it."
"Hiss" everyone took a breath of air.
Du Hong frowned: "This"
Ding Meng said: "If this makes you feel embarrassed, we don't need to talk about it anymore."
"Okay! It's a deal!" Du Hong gritted his teeth, "But I also have a condition. If you can help me get rid of the madman the day after tomorrow, you can take whatever you like, and I will never frown."
Now in the three areas of 30, 36, and 40, Dihao at 36 poses the greatest threat to Du Hong. Madman is the general under Dihao. There are rumors that Madman has broken through to the battle master this month. If this is the case, then Tong Yao
He and Meng Chen need to join forces to win, but then Du Hong will have no one available.
And if Ding Meng really has the strength of a combat master, then Du Hong's side has a great chance of winning.
"Brother Ding, if you need anything, please ask." Du Hong lowered his attitude, "The arena will open the day after tomorrow. Whatever you need, A Fang will prepare it for you."
"No need, just take me there directly." After saying this, Ding Meng walked directly to the entrance without looking back.
It wasn't until he walked away that Du Hong turned his attention to Tong Yao: "Yao Yao, what do you think of him?"
Tong Yao nodded: "He is definitely not beneath me."
Fortunately, Ding Meng is far away. If these words are heard by the little bad guys, they will be laughed at ruthlessly: You think too highly of yourself, are you not inferior to you? Not to mention that Ding Meng has not fully recovered, with his current strength, he can crush ten people.
It won't be a problem for you.
Ding Meng gained a lot in the past three months in the garbage mountain, so when he returned to the ground, he took Xiaobai to the base center to exchange items.
In fact, none of the things in the base were useful to Ding Meng, but Ding Meng still exchanged a large amount of various mixtures from Anweier Company for no other reason than to take care of Xiaobai and avoid arousing suspicion from others.
However, when exchanging various daily necessities on the first floor of the center, Han Xing happened to be there, and Han Xing obviously had an impression of Ding Meng: "Not bad, you went to the garbage mountain and stayed there for several months."
This cannot be hidden from Han Xing. Each area of the barracks has simple monitoring equipment. Ding Meng has not appeared in the camp for three months, which proves that he has been working underground. Besides, Xiaobai has been carrying high-end metals several times in a row.
When you come back, you don’t need to think that this is what Ding Meng dug up too.
Ding Meng said: "Sir Han, do you know the arena?"
Han Xing glanced at him in surprise: "You want to participate? Which current force will you represent?"
"Area 30!" Ding Meng didn't intend to hide it.
Han Xing said: "Du Hong's group?"
Ding Meng nodded: "Yes!"
Han Xing's face looked a little ugly: "In principle, Chief Sam does not support the operation of the arena, and the senior management of the Steelmane Empire do not like the appearance of such a place, but the arena is indeed conducive to maintaining order in the garbage mountain."
Ding Meng could still understand the meaning of this official talk. To put it bluntly, the center of the base acquiesced in the existence of the arena, but it just didn't support it on the surface.
Ding Meng said: "Sir Han, what should I pay attention to?"
Han Xing couldn't help but reveal a wry smile: "What you need to pay attention to is to save your life."
Ding Meng pondered: "What if I can save my life?"
Han Xing's expression became surprised again: "Are you sure?"
Ding Meng nodded affirmatively: "I'm sure!"
Han Xing's expression became complicated: "When you came here, do you still remember what I told you?"
Ding Meng said: "Of course I remember. I always keep your words in mind, sir."
Han Xing sighed: "Actually, Du Hong's strength is pretty good. At least in this Akashina Concentration Camp, for an empire's war master, this shouldn't be a place where he can wait for a long time."
Ding Meng didn't answer. He was thinking carefully about the meaning of Han Xing's words. "You shouldn't stay for a long time." Doesn't this mean he's not here? Where else could he be if he wasn't here? The Nuoxing Empire?
Han Xing seemed to know what he was thinking, and sighed: "The Steel Mane Empire often exchanges prisoners of war with the No Star Empire. You must know that the real enemy of the No Star Empire has never been the Steel Mane tribe. The Steel Mane tribe has places like concentration camps.
That’s because of the needs of the Steelmane tribe’s own development.”
These words are very obscure, but Din Meng can still understand that no matter what the final outcome of the war between the Nuo Xing Empire and the Frogman Nation is, the real beneficiary is the Steelmane Nation. As a small country, it can wait for opportunities to develop, and neither the Empire nor the Frogmen have time to do anything else.
Gu.
Ding Meng was silent for a while: "So the opportunity for mutual exchange is not common, right?"
Han Xing glanced at him: "It depends on who is paying attention?"
Ding Meng didn't understand this. Fortunately, Han Xing took the initiative to explain: "You said people like Du Hong Dihao, do others pay much attention to them?"
Ding Meng said: "Sir, what do you mean, they are not tall?"
Han Xing sneered: "Those who don't dare to go on stage in the arena are doomed to hang around here and wait to die. How can they get any attention? Chief Sam has always admired those who dare to fight. Regarding this
The Nox Empire and the Steelmane Empire have something in common. You are from the Empire. You should have known this many years ago."
The Nuoxing Empire has always advocated the law of supremacy of force. Whoever has the bigger fist is the right one.
"I understand, thank you sir for your advice!" Ding Meng replied.
Han Xing looked at him: "Then come on, the one who survives to the end is the winner. Also, let me remind you, don't be timid. In his spare time, Chief Sam likes to watch performances in the arena. Sometimes he will go there too.
A guest."
Ding Meng nodded and asked no more questions. In the lobby on the first floor of this base, asking too many questions will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the steel-maned soldiers. After all, Han Xing is also a soldier of the Nox Star Empire. Some words just need to be pointed out.
, whether he can find a way depends on Ding Meng's own strength and understanding.
After returning to the barracks and practicing alone for two days, A Fang arrived as expected, because the next step was to go to the arena.
The arena is far underground in the middle of the entire garbage mountain range, and it is more than 700 kilometers away from the camp. With the facilities and conditions of the concentration camp, most people have to leave two days in advance, but Du Hong is still capable and actually managed to get it.
I bought a small transport vehicle so that it would take four hours to drive there.
"The Akathena Arena was built two years ago. An athletic conference is held every three months on average, and is specifically used to resolve disputes between major forces. Each family has three quotas. Each quota is generally limited to one person, and there is no maximum limit.
"More than three people." Along the way, Afang was explaining the rules of the arena to Ding Meng. "The rules are very simple, either win or die. Of course, you can also admit defeat. Everyone who enters, whether they are participants or spectators, must pay a registration fee."
and admission fee”
Ding Meng was surprised when he heard this: "You still have to pay?"
"Yes!" Afang said seriously, "And it can't be the physical currency of the Frogman Kingdom, but the star coins, the common currency of our Nox Empire!"
Ding Meng was stunned for a moment: "How do you get the star coins of the Nox Empire in the Steel Mane Empire?"
Afang waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about the cost. Brother Hong has already arranged it for you. You can just go directly."
Ding Meng said in a deep voice: "Isn't the arena related to the center of the base?"
Afang didn't hide it from him: "Every time the competition is run, the base center will take 10% of the income as construction and management expenses."
Ding Meng asked calmly: "What then?"
Afang said: "The concentration camp is contracted by Sam, so the cost will naturally go to interstellar merchants or the black market to purchase war preparation materials."
Ding Meng reacted immediately. If these steel-maned soldiers want to buy equipment, their first choice must be the Nuo Xing Empire. The equipment of the empire is much better than that of the Frogman Kingdom. No wonder the arena charges star coins. Is it possible for this Commander Sam?
Are you still in contact with people from the Nuoxing Empire?
