King of athletics, that's an exciting title.
When Guan Zhaolin, depravity and Chen Xi said this name, the expressions on their faces looked quite strange. There was a faint sense of fear and excitement in those eyes.
Intuition tells me that the so-called king of competition seems to have something different.
"King of athletics, what is it?" I asked in a deep voice.
"It's very simple. In an ordinary arena, people fight with monsters, while the king of competition is the fight between people."
People fight with people. Maybe this is the cruelest place? The battle between people and monsters can no longer satisfy the madness in those people's hearts. Those people urgently want other more exciting activities.
And the kind of fighting between people can undoubtedly satisfy this madness.
And this is the king of competition.
"In the arena of the king of athletics, you can't surrender unless one side falls, otherwise you won't be able to decide the outcome."
This is the real cruelty.
Every person who has super ability, how precious his own ability is. He can live up to now by relying on his own ability, but now his super ability has become a tool for other people's entertainment, which is really an unimaginable sadness.
Just, what makes me feel a little incredible is, are there really so many capable people in this world?
Even if there are a large number of capable people in S City, it must be unbearable to die one by one, right? You'll die sooner or later.
"There's no need to worry about this problem. When a person with ability dies, there will be another ordinary person to inherit this person's ability crystal core. The number of people with ability is limited, but ordinary people are more than enough. The number of ordinary people who want to have ability can't be counted."
"The competitive king has been held for half a year. At the end of each month, there will be three days to hold the competitive King competition in which all super powers can freely participate. The last person who survives will become the competitive king of this month and attract countless people to participate every month."
It makes me feel a little strange if I fall. Why do countless people participate in the competition of the competitive king? Why did it attract so many people when Ming Ming participated in the game that was about to die?
"Because... The reward for becoming the king of competition... Freedom."
Freedom!
My breath stopped slightly. I know what freedom is.
For the people trapped in this city, nothing is more precious than freedom.
"After becoming the king of competition, although the bomb will still be installed in your neck, after all, it is an important means for those leaders to control people." everyone, the micro bomb injected into their neck is not only a number, a thing similar to an ID card, but also a means to control people. Those experts will never let go.
Freedom is only limited freedom.
"However, after becoming the king of competition, you don't have to fight with zombies, or fight with others, or even become an important subordinate of those leaders. You can be free from this cell, live in a better room and eat better food..."
Better houses, delicious food, and the most important thing is not to fight with zombies and other humans. All these are attracting those people to participate in this game.
"Moreover, in the arena of the king of athletics, it is actually possible to admit defeat, and it is not necessary to have one party die. After all, s city can't bear such a big loss... However, because those who participate in the king of athletics are experts among experts with strong strength, they often suffer injury or even death because they don't have time to admit defeat Strong. "
I can imagine the taste.
Just like a high God, he made a rule to give these people a hope.
Want freedom? Then according to our rules, perform in this cage. If you can make me happy, maybe you will be rewarded with a bone.
It's almost such a feeling.
Those people, who have regarded themselves as gods, can play with those people and ants under themselves at will.
"Have you ever participated in the king of athletics competition?" I suddenly asked with some curiosity.
In this sentence, Guan Zhaolin and Chen Xi's faces became red. I knew from their appearance that they must have participated, but their results were estimated to be poor.
"I participated in the third competitive King competition!" Guan Zhaolin said awkwardly: "at that time, I was young and did not listen to the dissuasion of the fallen brother. As a result, I was beaten out of the challenge arena just after the third game, and six ribs were broken..."
"I participated in the fourth session, and the situation is similar," Chen Xi said.
"In our cell, I'm afraid the only one who really participates in it is the fallen brother... The fallen brother has participated in the first and second competitive King competition."
"Moreover, in the second session, it even reached the top ten." Guan Zhaolin's voice was a little envious.
S city can now be said to be one of the most concentrated areas of superpowers in the world.
Countless superpowers from all over the country are concentrated, and the Quartet experts are unprecedentedly concentrated. I don't know how many of them are extremely abnormal.
In this case, it is conceivable that we can still reach the top ten.
No wonder Guan Zhaolin and Chen Xi seem so impressed and convinced by the giant.
And the champion of each session is the strong among the strong. He can stand out from tens of thousands of super capable people. Whether it is strength or intelligence, he is definitely the best choice and an impeccable strong person.
"Are we all locked up here the rest of the time?" I asked, glancing outside the cell.
"That's not true. When there are no competitive places, you can choose to go out to hunt zombies and obtain things such as ability crystal core. You can use these things to exchange delicious food and even women from those people. Of course, you can also choose to take them yourself to improve your strength, as long as they don't find them."
"Moreover, every morning, noon and afternoon, you can go outside to let out the wind, and even say hello to the administrator here, you can go to the city for a walk... Basically, you won't be subject to too many restrictions."
"The only thing to pay attention to is to try not to conflict with others, because you don't know who that person is and what strength. There are countless experts in this city."
There are too many places to pay attention to. Until eight or nine o'clock at night, the three people told me a general idea. Then it was too late, they all climbed into bed and rested.
I'm afraid this is the most stable and comfortable time for me to sleep?
It's not soft, but it's an absolutely flat bed and quilt. Don't worry about being attacked by zombies or other monsters.
I don't know how long I haven't experienced that rare stability.
Perhaps this is the reason why s city exists.
Although full of cruelty, but here, at least alive.
On this day, I slept for a long time. Maybe it was the first time I was awakened since the end of the world.
It was Guan Zhaolin who woke me up. His face looked rather ugly.
Then Guan Zhaolin pointed to the outside of the door. Just outside, three men with weapons and a cold and contemptuous face were waiting outside.
Those three people are all local people in this city. They are very proud and don't care about others at all.
It is full of contempt for all outsiders.
"Get up quickly and go to the arena now," one of the men said viciously.
"He hasn't had breakfast yet..." Chen Xi was angry.
"Don't eat. If you die somewhere, it's a waste... Get up quickly." the man just sneered and said impolitely.
Seeing that Chen Xi had clenched his fist, I patted Chen Xi on the shoulder and got up from bed: "don't worry, I'm fine."
With a smile on the corner of his mouth: "take me over..."
