Chapter 183 The Great Competitive Arena
He likes the feeling of the battlefield.
Butcher waved his mace and smashed the mantis in front of him into a pool of mud. The green and red mixed together and flowed down from his body. He roared up to the sky, and even the flying dragon on both feet was shocked. The only pity was that the mace had cracked, and he used it once or twice at most.
Although he has always pursued peace of mind, hoping to settle down somewhere, stay away from right and wrong, and perhaps want to try to rebuild his family, he still cannot deny that he likes the feeling of the battlefield quite a lot. Since the beginning of the fight, more than a dozen opponents have buried their lives in the actions of challenging him, leaving only a few small wounds and blood splashed all over his body. His own sweat evaporated, mixed with other smells on his body, turning into a real bloody murderous aura, which has been constantly emitting, and has already made the beasts on the platform feel scared.
The fearful enemy could no longer arouse Butcher's interest, and only those warriors with fighting spirit and martial arts could be called opponents. He raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the terrace at a high place. The Witch King Carac showed his head and looked down with a golden crown that symbolized power. His eyes were flashing with red flames, and it was sunny and filled with huge power. But Butcher clearly felt that the Witch King's attention was not on the arena, but in the audience.
Yes, what he wants is the life of the audience, plus the life of the Templars who maintain order, plus the life of gladiators and more slave laborers, the spirit and soul of all living things. He is actually staring at his own delicious meal, which is a feast of gluttons that can turn himself into a dragon after one meal. Plunder, devour others' lives and strength, acts that violate the laws of nature, what evil and powerful acts!
"Ricas, it's almost done, we're going to try to get on the high platform!" Butcher evaluated the situation. Zhao Mai had analyzed the development and changes of this battle for him in detail before. The safest way is to solve all threats on the ground and then climb onto the high platform. In that way, the possibility of winning the championship is the greatest. But the Witch King's purpose is not to decide the championship, but to kill everyone in the arena. When he thinks that the championship is about to appear, he will probably leave the throne and activate the magic tower, which is too late.
The only way is to start climbing when the situation is still chaotic, and take action while the Witch King is still showing off and before he leaves. This will of course attract firepower early, bringing more danger to Ricas and Butcher. However, Butcher and Ricas said that as long as they both go on the field, they will be the target of attention. Dangers exist from beginning to end, and don't care a little earlier or later.
Rikas bit the wooden spear in his mouth, and his left hand in the empty place was preparing to assist in climbing. At this moment, Butcher suddenly shouted: "Be careful of the elf on the left!"
A flash of lightning shot into Rikas' eyes. If he hit him, he would definitely become blind, but the Xinmu Spear made the spell return in vain. The elf demon warrior stared at his hand blankly, not knowing where the problem occurred.
Ricas would not miss this opportunity, so he rushed over from the platform, and the sword in his right hand pierced straight down. The elf raised his arm and used a small round shield to block it, but he completely misjudged the sharpness of the sword. The shield and his arm were cut off together, and the life of the elf. However, before his death, the elf pulled Ricas down hard, pressed him into the sand, and bit him hard on his shoulder with his teeth, tearing off the last bite of blood.
"Ricas!" Butcher's voice sounded from the second floor of the platform, more excitement than tension, and it should not be too urgent. Ricas broke away from the elf's arms and got up from the sand. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the king's platform. The Witch King's high crown was still there, and he seemed to have not noticed the situation in the field. The wooden spear suppressed the lightning spell. If this scene fell into the Witch King's eyes, would it arouse his alert?
At present, luck is still on their side. The Witch King's eyes are not on the arena. This time, luck inspired Rikas' morale. He took a deep breath and let the breath of the Atas Desert penetrate his lungs and draw strength from it. Zhao Mai told him that this planet was ruined by a magician, and a wave of the planet's will wanted to take revenge. It hoped that all the spell casters would die! So in the assassination of the Witch King, the entire planet stood on Rikas' side!
He felt in his heart that all Michael said were facts and irrefutable facts.
Butcher was fighting with a human warrior on the second floor of the high platform, using a mace to fight against the giant sword. In this confrontation, the mace, which had already had a crack, was obviously at a disadvantage. Butcher could only adopt a more conservative battle posture, but even so, the mace was constantly consumed, and it would turn into a wooden stick in a while, right? Ricas got up, bit his heart-broken spear, and hurriedly climbed up.
The human warrior shattered the mace, and his opponent can only fist naked now. "Bucher, the most powerful warrior?" The human sneered: "I won't give you a chance to go down and get weapons, you will die here!"
Butcher took a step back and avoided the giant sword's blade. He was about to step forward to attack, but his opponent had lowered the giant sword and pulled it back. A diagonal line blocked the direction of Bucher's possible advance and launched another wave of offensive. After several rounds, this person had almost no flaw in the giant sword's moves, forcing Bucher to retreat continuously.
Not far behind, a flame lizard stared at it, puffing up his cheeks and preparing to spit out flames. A smile streaked across the giant swordsman's face. He just needed to force Butcher to continue to stop nearby, and he would definitely die.
Butcher also felt the danger behind him, and his intuition on the battlefield made him stop. The giant swordsman did not attack rashly, but still adopted conservative propulsion tactics. He held his weapons high, observed, threatened, and continued to force.
A long sword penetrated from his chest, bringing a cold feeling. The heat representing vitality was quickly lost, and the platform and the earth opened their arms towards him. Butcher quickly stepped forward, reached out to grab the giant sword, and pulled out the heart-wood spear from behind the giant swordsman. In this way, both heart-wood spears were taken into their hands, and now they can climb up without distraction!
The flame lizard spewed out a heat wave, and the rolling flames covered half of the platform. This is the power of creatures, not magic or psychic power, and the heart-wood spear is useless for it. Zhao Mai analyzed this situation for them, and also conducted tests on the attack and defense ability of the heart-wood spear, so Rikas and Butcher were mentally prepared and moved to avoid it quickly. Their embarrassing appearance caused laughter from many audiences, and the screams of the gladiator who was affected by the flame triggered another round of cheers and cheers.
A flying axe flew over and hit the lizard's neck. The flame in the throat had an extra cathartic hole, which caused a burning fire in the lizard's own internal organs. The flame lizard actually ignited itself and soon burned into an empty skin. This scene made the audience scream more enthusiastic than ever. Not many of them even noticed that Rikas and Butcher had climbed to the third floor, and there was only two layers left from the top floor, which was just a distance of a two-legged flying dragon.
The Witch King Karak stood up and came to the railing on the edge of the platform. Many people present noticed the Witch King's actions. Most of them were fanatically excited, and a few were so nervous that they were heartbroken.
