Chapter 26 Colosseum
"Master Li, these beast-fighting stages are used for beast-fighting performances to allow spectators to place bets," Qin Yi introduced.
"Then the Chen family only collects door fees?" Li Yun asked.
"The Chen family also takes a cut of every bet. No matter what the outcome of the battle is, they will always make a profit without losing any money." Qin Yidao.
"If the mysterious beast dies, won't we lose a lot of money?"
"Dead mysterious beasts also have a place to go. The Chen family runs a mysterious beast restaurant, so the mysterious beasts killed in battles are naturally their main source of meat."
"This...the Chen family has simply used all the value of the mysterious beast from beginning to end!" Li Yun sighed.
"exactly."
…
Above the auditorium, there are several huge light screens hanging, which are activated by the mysterious energy of the mysterious stone. They can clearly show the details of the field in three dimensions, so even the audience sitting at the back don't have to worry about seeing it. No fighting scenes.
Not long after the three people sat down, a voice suddenly sounded in the venue: "Dear guests, a beast fight is about to begin on stage 1. The two sides are the Saber-Tooth Black Panther and the Bright Moon Silver Wolf. Betting has closed, please guests. Enjoy the game!”
The noise on the sidelines suddenly calmed down. Li Yun looked at stage 1 and saw two animal trainers who did not look like people from the Tianlong Empire, each pulling a large cage to the side of the stage and standing opposite each other.
"Master Li, these two beast trainers are from the Xirong Empire. It is said that they were responsible for taming the mysterious beasts that were transported from Xirong last time." Qin Yi whispered.
Li Yun nodded and stared at the two animal trainers, thoughtfully.
The two men each opened the cage, seemingly communicating with the mysterious beasts inside, then opened the collars that locked them, patted their backs, and released them.
"Dear guests, these two mysterious beasts are both level two mysterious beasts and are evenly matched. The battle will begin soon, please enjoy!" the voice on the field introduced.
The two mysterious beasts looked at each other for a moment, then roared almost simultaneously and rushed toward each other.
Both sides are very fast, but the Saber-Tooth Black Panther is slightly larger than the Bright Moon Silver Wolf. It is very powerful, with sharp claws and teeth that sparkle like sharp blades.
Judging from the shouts of the audience, most people are optimistic about it.
There were shouts and shouts all around, and the bettors kept shouting about the mysterious beast they supported, and the fight was fierce.
The battle in the field was extremely bloody, with both sides going back and forth, roaring, claws flying, blood splashing, and the people below screaming in shock.
To the surprise of most people, the Haoyue Silver Wolf was faster and gradually gained a certain advantage in the battle. Under the pressure of the Silver Wolf step by step, the Black Panther's body was already scarred and stained with blood.
After forcing the black panther into a corner, the silver wolf seemed to want a quick victory. He suddenly howled wildly and spit out a shiny sphere from his mouth, killing the black panther like a bright moon.
There was a burst of exclamation from the audience!
"Silver Moon!"
It turns out that the strength of this silver wolf is almost close to level three, so it can barely condense the special skill of the beast tribe, the Haoyue Silver Wolf - "Silver Moon". For this black panther, this is definitely a big killer weapon. .
There is almost no suspense in this battle, and everyone can already imagine the tragic ending of the Black Panther being disemboweled.
However, to everyone's surprise, in this desperate situation, the black panther was completely aroused. It completely ignored the silver moon and rolled like lightning. Its head reached under the belly of the silver wolf, and a pair of The long sharp saber teeth pierced the silver wolf's belly fiercely. At this time, the silver moon happened to hit the black panther's belly.
Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!
The air on the stage was flying, and it was exploding wildly.
After a while, they finally stopped, and saw blood and flesh splattering everywhere in the field. Both mysterious beasts fell into a pool of blood, motionless, and could no longer die.
There was a rare moment of silence on the field,
Everyone was shocked to see it!
"Dear guests, given that both mysterious beasts died in the end, according to the rules of the Colosseum, this beast fight is a draw." A voice sounded on the field.
The audience suddenly burst into lamentations, yells, cries, and applause, one after another, it was chaos!
The three of them witnessed this twists and turns of the beast fight. Apart from being shocked, it was an eye-opener and they were also quite excited.
I saw many people pouring out of the stage quickly, pulling the dead mysterious beast into the car, and being taken away by the Xirong trainer. At the same time, they cleaned up the various stains left on the stage.
…
"Let's go, follow the animal trainer!" Li Yun suddenly whispered.
The three sneaked into the field quietly and saw the two animal trainers pulling the carriage passing by, following behind from a distance.
"Yun'er, do you think there's something wrong with them?" Li Wei asked in a low voice.
"Can't be sure. However, the appearance of these people is one of the variables in the past ten days, and it has to be doubtful." Li Yun replied.
"Qin Yi, please immediately send someone to contact our people to investigate and see if anyone has seen what these Xirong people are doing in the past ten days?" Li Yun said.
"Yes!" Qin Yi left in a hurry.
Li Yun and Li Wei followed the beast trainer from a distance to the mysterious beast parking lot behind.
After a while, the Chen family came over and took the two dead mysterious beasts away, probably sending them to the Chen family's Xuanwu Restaurant.
The two animal trainers completed the handover work, pulled the empty carriage back to the back of the parking lot, and began to clean the carriage and feed the horses.
After finishing their work, the two moved some items and walked towards the sealed cage at the back.
Lifting the blanket, the two of them walked in, and several low beast roars could be heard faintly from the cage.
Since the cage was covered with a blanket, Li Yun couldn't see what the two people were doing inside, but he was basically sure that they were feeding the mysterious beast in the cage.
"Yun'er, it seems normal." Li Wei said softly.
"Father, don't you see the problem?" Li Yun replied.
"I... really don't think there's anything wrong with it."
"Look, there are so many cages here, all sealed. But there seem to be only these two animal trainers, so where are the others?" Li Yundao said.
"Well, not bad, not bad, it's true! According to the last information, there are quite a few animal trainers from Xirong, and the Xirong people actually promised the Chen family to pay for themselves. Now that I think about it, there is indeed a problem." Li Wei thought.
"There must be something strange when something goes wrong! The Chen family thought they had taken advantage, but I'm afraid they will lose more than they gain in the end. After these two people leave, let's go in and take a look." Li Yun said.
Sure enough, as Li Yun expected, after a while, after the two beast trainers came out, someone came from the Colosseum to pick out the mysterious beasts, and they were responsible for delivering them to the beast fighting platform. The two men quickly Just left here.
"quick!"
Li Yun and Li Wei quickly rushed to the cage and got into the blanket.
Wow!
The two men let out a low cry and opened their eyes. They saw several rows of tall cages lined up inside. There was a mysterious beast in each cage. There were various varieties and different shapes. It could be like opening a mysterious beast garden for people to visit. .
It smelled like a stranger, and some of the mysterious beasts began to stir.
The two of them did not dare to move too much to avoid causing the mysterious beast to panic. Instead, they moved slowly and observed carefully.
"It seems that the missing person is not here." Li Yun whispered.
"That's right, otherwise it wouldn't have been so quiet before." Li Wei agreed.
Li Yun grabbed a handful of Xuan Beast's food, looked at it, and smelled it.
"Father, this is the food that the two trainers added to the mysterious beast. It is beans, not meat." Li Yun tasted it and said.
"Can you tell?"
"That's right! This is a bean cake made by grinding beans into powder and then baking them." Li Yun nodded.
"It seems that there is no problem with these mysterious beasts." Li Wei said.
"That's right, the problem is...the cage." Li Yun knocked on the metal pipe, listened carefully, and pondered.
"Cage?!" Li Wei's eyes lit up.
At Li Yun's prompt, Li Wei carefully observed the cage and seemed to see nothing wrong.
"These cages are extremely strong. They are all made of thick metal bars. They are very suitable for holding these mysterious beasts. What's the problem?" Li Wei whispered.
"Listen." Li Yun stretched out a finger and gently tapped a metal bar.
Beneath, bee, bee.
Li Wei's expression suddenly changed, and he said in surprise: "Hollow?!"
Li Yun nodded slowly.
The two inspected many metal pipes and found that almost all large metal pipes were hollow, and only some small metal pipes were solid.
Li Yun took out some items from inside several hollow metal bars, carefully wrapped them, took them with him, and said, "It's not a good time to stay here for a long time, let's go!"
The two got out of the blanket and saw the two Xirong people driving a carriage from a distance. They quickly used the terrain of the field to hide and took advantage of them to feed the mysterious beasts and sneak out.
"Father, have you ever clearly seen the cultivation of these two people?"
"One is at the fourth level of the Mysterious Mountain Realm, and the other is at the fifth level of the Mysterious Passage Realm."
The two walked out of the Colosseum, Qin Yi was waiting in the distance, and the three of them met.
"Qin Yi, please send a few brothers to monitor these Xirong people here. If there is any movement, report them in time." Li Wei said.
"good!"
After Qin Yi made arrangements, the three of them headed towards the tide listening platform.
"Qin Yi, did you find anything?" Li Yun asked.
"People have been sent out to investigate, but there has been no reply yet. I wonder if Young Master Li has gained anything from this trip?"
"Well, there are many doubts. No matter what, there must be something wrong with these Xirong people." Li Yun said flatly.
"Then should we arrest him and torture him directly?"
"no."
"Why?"
"If they really serve the big forces behind the scenes, then they must be dead soldiers. I'm afraid they will commit suicide before we can ask anything. Moreover, this move will definitely alert the snake, and the other party will cut off all the information. Clues will make it more difficult for us to continue tracing, and then we will be in big trouble." Li Yun said.
"It makes sense! What should we do now?" Qin Yi heard this and his mind was wide open.
"We must hold steady. If we find out where the other Xirong people are, we will probably be able to find the problem." Li Yun said.
The three of them came to the vicinity of the Tide Listening Platform and stared at this tall building with a lot of emotion in their hearts.
"Master Li, I heard that you left a unique poem here last time. I haven't had time to go there to read it yet." Qin Yi said with a smile.
"Hehe, it's all the seniors who support me, otherwise I would never write it." Li Yun said with a smile.
"It seems that I have a chance to go and see it this time." Qin Yi said.
"Wait!"
Li Yun stared at the towering tide listening platform, an idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly said.
…
