In a camp outside the city of Arles, sand wolf cavalry rode sand wolves to patrol around the camp, and there were a large number of northern soldiers guarding the camp and the gate.

This is a slave camp where slaves are held. From the camp guards, we can tell that this is not an ordinary slave camp.The slaves here are all slave gladiators used in the arena, and the people imprisoned there are all of good strength, and ordinary guards are naturally useless.

The arena is a national property, and the escort and escort work is naturally done by the regular troops of the Northern Empire. This will not only reduce costs without hiring additional people, but also improve security. Regular troops are always more reliable than mercenaries.

At this time, the gate of the camp was slowly opened, and a northern heavy hammer infantry walked out of the gate with heavy steps, holding a thick iron chain in his hand, looking back along the chain, I saw a row of numb-looking slaves being chained together. Their wrists and ankles were hung with heavy objects. A chain connected their hands and feet together. Even if they wanted to resist, their hands and feet could not move. The method moves flexibly.

At this time, a slave suddenly staggered and fell to the ground, and the guard who was watching immediately swung his whip at the slave, beating and yelling at the slave, as can be seen from the perverted and ferocious smile of the guard. , rather than saying that he was punishing the slave who fell, he was actually enjoying the process of whipping the slave.

This is a kind of hand that suddenly grabbed the guard's whip. The guard turned his head and saw that the slave behind the fallen slave grabbed his whip, which was different from other slaves who looked numb. , the slave's eyes were full of life.The guard tugged at the whip in the slave's hand, but found that it was still motionless. His embarrassment immediately aroused the ridicule of the surrounding guards.

The guard who was furious immediately wanted to draw out the long sword at his waist to kill the slave, but when the guard pulled out the long sword, the heavy hammer infantry who was leading the iron chain immediately yelled at the guard: "Shut up!" Take up your weapons! These slaves are going to be sent to the arena, if you hack him to death, you will wait for the battalion head to send you as a slave to the arena!"

Hearing this, the guard immediately shrank his neck and put away his weapon in resentment, at this time the slave also let go of his whip, the guard glared at the slave and said harshly: "I will deal with you well when you come back! "After speaking, he turned and walked away.

The slave snorted as he watched the guard leave, and then reached out to help the slave who fell in front of him.The slave who was lifted up nodded and smiled wryly: "Thank you, uncle, but if you help me like this, you will be in bad luck."

The slave who helped him up smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm different, they won't do anything to me. They still rely on me to make money. Son, don't give up hope, we can definitely leave here alive."

The slave behind the slave's words sneered and said with a sneer: "Leave alive? We can live through tonight. My lord general."

Inside the arena, there was a lot of voices. As an entertainment activity that the whole people participated in, the ticket price was very reasonable. A seat ticket was [-] copper coins, and a standing ticket was only [-] copper coin. Anyone was eligible to enter the arena to watch the game. You may not have money to gamble, but you can still watch wonderful gladiatorial fights.

After entering the arena, Xiao Chen and Yue Bai found their own seats with the tickets in their hands. The waiter didn't fool them, and they were indeed seated in the front.In the aisle of the arena, some children holding snacks were yelling in the aisle.

Snacks are very cheap, all kinds of jerky, sugar cakes, Yuebai bought a bunch and only spent a few silver coins, but a few silver coins are nothing to the poor who stand behind and can only afford a standing ticket for one copper coin. The price is sky-high, and their income for a few days is not that much.

Xiao Chen could tell from the people sitting in the venue and the people standing behind that the gap between the rich and the poor in Ales City was quite large, and there were not many seats for tickets, only more than 500 seats, but they were still vacant. There are many positions, but the people standing behind have already crowded into a pile.

At this time, a child came to Xiao Chen and Yue Bai with a tray and smiled, "Masters, do you want to place a bet?" At least let me see how strong those gladiators are.

At this time, Yuebai whispered in Xiao Chen's ear, Xiao Chen nodded, took out a gold coin and threw it to the child, saying, "Bai se." The child smiled and nodded, handing over a voucher representing one gold coin for gambling. Said to Xiao Chen: "Thank you for placing your bet, sir, I wish you good luck tonight." Then he left.

What Yuebai just whispered in Xiao Chen's ear was the unique betting rules of the arena in the northern border. People in the northern border pay more attention to luck in the way they bet. They won't let you know who the gladiators on both sides are and how strong they are. .The only thing you can press is the white exit or the red exit, and the one that comes out may be a gladiator or a monster.Unless there are special circumstances, the odds are [-] to [-].

Of course, Xiao Chen is not interested in the so-called arena fights at all. For ordinary people, the bloody battles in the arena may make them extremely excited, but for Xiao Chen, this has no meaning at all. He has lived too many bloody days. , and even a little numb.

The gladiatorial fight began amid the cheers of the people. The first battle was two slave gladiators. They walked out of the gate holding a dagger and a round shield. The strength of the two slaves was almost the same, and the outcome was unpredictable.What followed was a boring time for the two of you to hit me, but the people watching behind were screaming, holding the ticket in their hands and shouting to cheer for the gladiator they chose.

As the wrestling fights went by, Xiao Chen also placed bets one after another. Just when Xiao Chen was about to fall asleep due to the boring wrestling, the people around him suddenly shouted excitedly, The audience, including those in the ticket seats, also stood up excitedly, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and looked towards the arena in surprise.

It turns out that the highlight of the arena tonight is finally on the stage, the life-and-death fight between the two against the monsters.The arena will send two gladiators against a powerful monster.The odds also increased from [-]-to-[-] to [-]-to-[-] in an instant, and the object of the bet has also become a bet on a gladiator or a bet on a monster.

Xiao Chen snorted and looked at Yuebai who was sleeping like a dead pig beside him, then sighed, reached out and patted Yuebai's cheek and said: "Yuebai, wake up. We should go."

Yuebai reached out and rubbed her confused eyes, "Master, is it over?"

Xiao Chen smiled and said: "It doesn't make any sense to look any further. We came here for nothing tonight." Just as Xiao Chen was about to get up, the floodgates of the arena opened amidst the shouts of everyone in the audience Then, two gladiators with bucklers and long swords came out of the gate.

On the other side, a gust of wind floated out from the pitch-black gate, and then a huge blood-colored rooster-combed lizard slowly crawled out of it.The eighth-level Blood Crown Monitor Lizard is equivalent to the eighth-level Sword Emperor.

Xiao Chen frowned looking at the two gladiators who came out, Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at the shivering younger gladiator, when the gladiator slightly lifted his head from behind the round shield After revealing a little bit, Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly shrank, and then his face was ecstatic. It really didn't take much effort to find nowhere to go, the person who was trembling was none other than Mu Kai!

Xiao Chen turned his head and wanted to tell Yuebai, but when he turned his head, he saw that Yuebai had already left where he was, with an expression of disbelief.Xiao Chen frowned looking at Yuebai's expression, because Yuebai didn't know Mu Kai, so naturally he wouldn't recognize that dirty-faced slave as Mu Kai, so the problem naturally appeared on another slave .

After reacting, Yuebai put her arms around Xiao Chen's shoulders with ecstasy and said, "Master, look at the family crest on that slave's arm! That is the family crest of the Roland family! Fina said that his father took his family's crest It's tattooed on my arm, that's my father-in-law! It turns out he's not dead, and Feina will die of joy when she finds out!"

Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect to kill two birds with one stone!Not to mention finding Mu Kai, he actually found Earl Walter who was thought to be dead.

Xiao Chen took out the White Tiger Saber from the interspatial bag and said with a smile: "That's just right, save the two together."

Yuebai frowned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Could it be that the slave next to him is..."

"That's right, it's Mu Kai. I'm going to kill that lizard. You lead the two of them out of the arena. Let's gather in the open space outside the arena." Before Yuebai could react, Xiao Chen rushed directly to the arena Inside.

With Xiao Chen's sudden action, the people in the venue immediately became excited. They didn't expect someone to sabotage the gladiatorial match so boldly. The surrounding guards immediately surrounded them when they saw someone making trouble. The giant lizard opened its bloody mouth unceremoniously, and took it down to Xiao Chen who suddenly appeared in front of him.

Xiao Chen snorted coldly and raised the saber, raised the saber in his hand, and a dragon chant resounded through the venue. Xiao Chen slashed the blood-crowned monitor lizard from the middle with a move of the black dragon roar.After splitting the blood-crowned monitor lizard, the saber energy did not stop, and directly blasted the earth wall of the venue, just piercing through a passage, and Xiao Chen's knife directly suppressed all the guards.

Yuebai didn't wait for Earl Walter and Mu Kai who were stunned to react, and rushed out of the big hole Xiao Chen made with the two of them on his shoulders.
