Chapter 166
"Miss, how did they kill their own people?"
Looking at the nearly thousand people who had just rebelled from a distance, being swallowed up by monsters from another world like food, Silvia's face showed fear unconsciously, but she still insisted on not looking away.
She was a little timid, but she had followed Vivienne for so many years and had seen many bloody and cruel things, so she would not be frightened by the scene in front of her.
"Even if those monsters have the ability to change camps for some people, they must pay a heavy price."
Vivian shook her head lightly: "No, it's impossible to rape these people."
Silvia's eyes widened: "So, that Kasim is a liar?"
Vivian laughed mockingly: "This is an obvious scam, but some people are too stupid, and some people are lucky."
There were many discussions, large or small, in the crowd.
But at the forefront, several people including Leif were silent.
Nearly a thousand people were raped. Although they did not directly help the monsters, they also weakened the strength of the human side in a disguised form, and the strength of the monsters that devoured human flesh and blood also gained a certain amount of growth.
In this ebb and flow, the difference in overall strength is even greater, and the winning rate of human beings is also smaller.
"Rafe, what do we do now?"
"Do we still have a chance of victory?"
Several elders around looked at Leif, the person in charge of the big gladiatorial fight.
He is now 65 years old, and this time he has participated in five major gladiatorial fights. From a dispensable cannon fodder to an elder who hopes to reach the pinnacle of power in the country, he may not be a model figure who rose from a commoner to an elder , but it is definitely the envy of most people.
He himself has rich experience in fighting monsters because he has participated in many great gladiatorial fights.
"What can be done, we have done it before today, now..."
Leif's face was expressionless, and his voice was extremely flat: "Either win or die!"
After fishing for a lifetime, it is a pity that I have to face these ferocious fish without even having time to release the bait this time.
In an instant, these words spread to the ears of thousands of people around.
Everyone present knew that since they were drawn into this gladiatorial space, they had already lost the right to choose. Regardless of the probability of winning this great gladiatorial fight, there was only one way to fight to the death.
"It's really touching, but I'm sorry, the fraud game is over, you can die!"
Kasim smiled all over his face, then looked at the group of monsters behind him, and respectfully called out: "Your Majesty, your devout believer, Kasim, please help!"
He couldn't wait to see his former colleagues die in front of him.
Let them fight against me at ordinary times, let them not accept my solicitation, let them mock me openly and secretly, and now it is finally time for me to take revenge.
"Roar--"
Thousands of monsters spread out in unison, overwhelmingly passing by the 200-member Betrayer Alliance.
Looking at these powerful and terrifying monsters, both Kasim and Liu Donglei showed excitement on their faces, as if they were finally about to reap the fruits after going through all kinds of hardships.
There are also core members of the "Despair" and "Axiomists" who belong to the same alliance with similar sentiments.
However, their joy did not last long, and it turned into screams of fear, panic, and helplessness.
Those monsters they call gods.
They passed by on the surface, but actually surrounded them in the middle, and burst out various killing moves in an instant, turning the ground where they were on into a blood-stained place.
More than a dozen powerful spirit summoners, including Kasim and Liu Donglei, were the targets of the monster boss's fire, and their bodies turned into ashes immediately.
The sudden change made Leif and the others dumbfounded, completely unable to understand what was going on.
Previously, relying on their understanding of the rules of the arena and Kasim's personality, they guessed that the nearly thousand rebels would not have any good results.
The reason why they didn't reveal it was mainly because they were afraid that those who had rebelled would continue to stay, and they might be persuaded to rebel with a few words. If they were stabbed in the back at that time, they would undoubtedly cut off all the pitiful winning percentages.
But they never thought about the scene before them.
"Miss, what's going on here?"
Sylvia blinked her eyes, her mind filled with doubts.
Vivian raised her hand and rubbed her fluffy hair, feeling equally puzzled in her heart: "If I knew, then I would be a monster."
The scene in front of me can be seen as these monsters from other worlds like treachery, but judging from their ability to confuse "Despair" and the elders of "Parliament" for a hundred years, it is obvious that they will not be so short-sighted, so what is the reason?
"madness!"
The monsters opened their mouths almost at the same time: "You humans have been so stupid from before to now!"
The reason is almost, because some monsters do not have mouths, but make sounds by vibrating certain parts.
These normal or weird sounds merged together to form a strange sound that was both deafening and slightly uncomfortable.
Whoa!
In a flash of light, a pair of shimmering white wings protruded from Leif's back.
The wings flapped lightly, driving him up into the air, looking coldly at the group of monsters in front of him: "Are you that false god?"
From some secret information of the United Council, as well as personal experience and observation in recent years, he discovered that the false god who guided the ancestors to establish the Kingdom of Hope 200 years ago only appeared once a hundred years ago.
In the following time, he has been hiding behind the scenes, but the action of plotting this world has never stopped.
On the one hand, it controls monsters with strong fighting instincts to participate in gladiatorial fights, and on the other hand, it uses some hidden means to charm the humans in this world, such as "Despair" Liu Donglei, "Parliament" Kasim and the like.
This time he actually came over, obviously with the certainty of victory.
"That's not what you called me back then."
All the monsters looked at Leif and said in unison.
Leif pondered for a moment: "Why did you kill them?"
"Originally, I planned to breed you humans and harvest a batch every once in a while. This really requires some of your kind to manage."
The pseudo-god's tone didn't sound fluctuating at all, but it seemed to have a sense of superiority: "But I have changed my mind now and decided to harvest you and your world directly, so they have no value in existence."
"That……"
Leif was about to ask again, and he didn't want the false god to interrupt him directly: "I told you so much just because I'm bored, it doesn't mean I like answering your questions."
The moment the voice fell, all the monsters rushed out.
This time without any pause or hesitation, they went all out to kill the humans and launched an attack.
"All fight!"
Leif also issued an order at the first moment.
A bloody battle is imminent!
In this unobstructed terrain, the melee of thousands of humans and thousands of monsters, most of the tactics and coordination lost their original functions.
What really determines the outcome is the overall strength of the two sides, as well as the strong one standing at the top.
At this moment.
People throughout the country of hope fell into panic.
As soon as the fighting space of the Arena of Despair opened, the pictures inside were clearly projected to the outside world, the fighting space of each city's arena.
And the operators of those gladiator spaces finally took back part of their authority.
It regains the ability to move the viewing angle at will and zoom in and out of the battlefield, but it is limited to this.
The conversations and pictures that took place thereafter were also clearly transmitted to everyone in the stands, and those who were not in the arena also received detailed explanations through the radio.
Seeing that the matter could not be concealed, the United Council contacted the heads of various cities by telegram, and then announced the origin of the arena, which had been hidden for 200 years, to everyone.
After learning these things, many people's minds are filled with negative emotions such as fear and helplessness.
One of the arenas.
"If we were defeated before, the whole world was enslaved and everyone was turned into food, but there is still hope for survival."
"Then now that we are defeated, the only way is to die."
Mo Changsong, who was sitting in the VIP room, looked at the scene of the desperate arena projected by the arena, and his heart sank again.
A fight of hundreds of people has become a fight of thousands of people, and even the Desperate Fighting Arena has aligned its own space with the time of the outside world, and put the pictures inside in real time in all the fighting spaces outside.
All of this proves the importance of this gladiatorial fight.
According to the fairly fair rules of the Arena of Despair.
If human beings can win this gladiatorial battle, they may be able to completely get rid of the threat of the other world, and no longer have to worry about their invasion.
But if it is defeated, human beings will be completely reduced to fish and meat, and will be slaughtered by another world.
"Changsong."
Pan Wan sat next to Mo Changsong, holding his hand tightly: "Why isn't Shicheng inside?"
From his expression, she knew that the hope of human victory was very slim, so she cherished this last bit of time very much. The only regret was that she still saw her son.
"Since you have received the news from over there, it means that our son has already entered. The reason why he did not appear in the gladiatorial space should be that he has not yet entered the arena of despair."
There is another possibility that Mo Changsong didn't mention.
That is, when Jiang Ren entered that space, he was attacked by desperate people just like him, and then died in it because he was lost.
People like Mo Changsong who understand the arena of despair mostly report a pessimistic attitude towards the outcome of this wrestling.
As for the rest of the people who have only half-knowledge, or who have just learned about the origin of the arena from various sources, although they were a little discouraged and angry because of the nearly a thousand traitors who turned to the monsters at the beginning, but for the outcome of this gladiatorial battle, There is still great hope.
After all, the remaining thousands of people.
People in almost every city can find a few, dozens, or even hundreds of familiar powerhouses among them.
However, after the contact between the two parties in the gladiatorial space, the "dark" monsters gradually devoured the "colorful" humans, and many people realized the seriousness of the matter and their own naivety.
At this time.
A shining light appeared in the gladiatorial space.
"Hope - Angel Feather!"
Leif, who was in mid-air, protruded two pairs of wings from his back again, changing into the shape of a seraph, and his whole person was filled with a sacred and majestic temperament.
Countless light feathers shook off the six wings and transformed into little angels the size of fists, with baby-like laughter and laughter, falling on the humans and monsters who were fighting below.
All human beings who come into contact with the little angels have their strength, defense, and speed greatly improved.
And all the monsters that came into contact with the little angel seemed to have a negative state superimposed, their bodies began to become heavy, and their speed became slow.
One plus one minus one.
Barely pulling humans back from their defeat, they can temporarily resist attacks from monsters.
Boo!
A six-meter-tall monster with a sheep's head and a human body flashed beside Leif, and its sharp claws fell towards his body.
Clang sound.
The six wings behind Leif instantly wrapped his body to block the claws, but due to the huge force from the claws, the whole person flew directly to the side.
The six wings flapped in unison, but stopped after flying more than ten meters.
"Hope - Angel Feather!"
Rafe spread out the six wings again, and quickly distanced himself from the sheep-headed monster.
In terms of combat ability, he is enough to be ranked in the top five among these thousands of people.
But his abilities are more suitable for such large-scale auxiliary operations, and his positive effect on the battle situation is far better than killing the enemy by himself.
After the false god finished speaking, it seemed to have disappeared.
But the monsters with extremely strong fighting instincts listed him as an important target to kill without any instructions or manipulations.
In addition to the sheep-headed monster just now, there are several flying monsters that are not weak, and they are also chasing him frantically, and the overflowing killing intent is locked on his body all the time.
however.
In the current situation, it was already very difficult to take care of himself, and no one could spare him the time to help him.
Battlefield below.
Vivienne possessed a huge colorful python, which tightly entangled a monster more than ten meters high.
Sylvia possessed the dolls in princess dresses, wound up the fist-sized dolls, and then controlled them to approach the monsters at a slow pace. By detonating themselves, they caused damage to the monsters. injury.
Mu Qingfeng turned into a green-skinned barbarian, crazily wielding a mace, and fought with several monsters. Most of his body was dyed red by his own blood.
Boom!
Suddenly, Rafe fell to the ground.
There is a huge hole in his abdomen, and the flesh, internal organs, and bones inside have all disappeared.The glimmer of light on the wings also dissipated, and the fresh blood gushing from the body stained the pure white wings with blood-red stains.
"Rafe!"
"Elder Rafe!"
Seeing his state, many people shouted in panic, and even wanted to rush to save him.
"leave me alone!"
Rafe shouted out with the last of his strength.
His injury was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Not to mention the destructive energy at the wound, just to say that he just used the angel feather without regard for his life. Even without this injury, he wouldn't be able to live for long.
tread!
He dropped the ramhorn monster he had severely injured on the ground, and the godless eyes suddenly showed a look of wisdom: "You are one of the few humans who can see into my eyes."
"It's an honor."
Leif laughed at himself: "I don't know who else is there besides me?"
The change of the goat horn monster is obviously because he has been manipulated by that false god.
The false god said indifferently: "Naturally, it is the group of human beings who have delayed my plan for 100 years. As a human being in my eyes, I will kill you with my own hands."
"Should I say I'm lucky?"
Leif coughed up a mouthful of blood, and when he was about to sneer, his pupils shrank suddenly.
A black spot not much bigger than a grain of rice is falling towards him, it seems to be a person
Do not!
Not just one person!
