Chapter 35 Gladiator
If there must be a correct option, eliminate all impossible answers, and the remaining answers, no matter how incredible, are real answers. - Cheng Mo
At 5:30 in the morning on this day, Cheng Mo was not woken up by the alarm clock, but after he chose to leave the carrier, a halo of light illuminated by the Ouroboros ring enveloped him, and then there was a person in the aperture.
The countdown like an electronic clock jumped from sixty seconds to zero seconds. At the zero second, Cheng Mo opened his eyes on the bed and jumped up.
Cheng Mo looked at the faint morning light outside the window and took a deep breath. At this time, his perception of the outside world had returned to normal. He raised his left hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. He still felt magical.
It's like an illusion.
He pressed the knob on the watch, and a message appeared immediately. Please select a teleportation location. The number of remaining activations for the day was 0, and the remaining time was 5 minutes. Then a three-dimensional map spread out in front of his eyes.
After Cheng Mo's research last night, this usage time and number of activations are the same as the "game anti-addiction system", but after registering at the Pantheon, this problem should be solved.
Cheng Mo pulled out the knob again, and the human body formed by green light spots kept rotating in the air. A series of data of the carrier was displayed on the left side of the body. Except for the stamina value being depleted a little, everything else was as usual.
Although the person made up of green light spots was slowly rotating, the username "Morning Star LV0" above his head never moved.
Cheng Mo turned off his watch, got up, got dressed slowly, washed his face and brushed his teeth. He had never had such an exciting and enthusiastic experience in his life, especially after he experienced running for the first time yesterday.
I feel so excited that I have finally become a complete person.
He didn't know how other people felt when they were running, but Cheng Mo experienced an ultimate soul-burning feeling when he was running with a carrier.
He ran from home to school in just 25 minutes. When he ran to school, he didn't think this number was anything special.
But when he searched for long-distance running world records, he realized how terrifying the numbers were. The world record for the ten-kilometer marathon was 26 minutes and 20 seconds, and the distance from his home to school was 7.1 kilometers. Although on average, it was quite a bit lower than the world record.
There was a big gap, but the problem was that he didn't try his best. He didn't even feel tired after running 7.1 kilometers, and his body didn't even secrete sweat.
And he knows he can be faster.
This number is actually not the key. He had expected to have super physical fitness. The key is that when he is running, he can clearly feel the status of each of his muscles and the force endured by his legs.
Stride distance, vertical amplitude, and even ground contact time are all clearly understood.
Then he ran back from school again, this time he sped up a little, and it only took 20 minutes. When he got home, he clicked on his body information, but only 3 points of 427 physical points were consumed.
When he returned home, he did many experiments, such as eating, such as holding on to the closet to do pull-ups, such as trying to jump high to touch the roof. He even pricked his fingertips with a needle, but there was no prick for the first few times.
Bleeding, a little blood finally came out, and the wound disappeared quickly. This kind of healing ability is simply terrifying.
Later, he has been browsing the forum to research information about "Carrier", "Chosen One", and "Gladiator" (Note 1)...
Cheng Mo ate cereal, eggs, and milk and went to school with his schoolbag on his back. When he went to 202, his body did not feel sleepy at all. He could clearly feel that he was very energetic. In other words, he had
Almost no time is wasted on sleeping.
But even though I feel energetic at the moment, the control power provided by this broken body cannot be compared with the carrier.
If your body is a Chery QQ with an engine problem, then the carrier is a Lamborghini LP700-4, and the difference is so obvious.
But there was no way. Cheng Mo had to go to school with this frail body. This was inevitable, because his body was the source of everything.
He spent the second half of the night yesterday studying the information he could collect from the Chosen Ones Forum. The content in it was really rich, but he had not been able to clarify many things yet.
However, there was one thing that he noticed in particular. There were many people selling information about "Gladiatus" in the trading section. According to his inference, the so-called "Gladiatus" were carrier users who had not yet become the Chosen One.
The gladiator information for sale on the forum generally includes the following contents: the city where they are located, the scope of their regular activities, the level of the gladiator, and the skills they possess... The higher the level, the higher the asking price for the information on the gladiator.
High, one of the information about a level 18 gladiator located in California was sold for 1,000 Bitcoins, which is about 30 million Chinese coins.
The most horrifying thing to Cheng Mo is that if the sales information includes the true identity of the gladiator, the asking price will be higher.
At first, Cheng Mo was a little confused as to why the "carrier" was called a gladiator, because he felt that calling him a summoner or anything else was more appropriate than calling him a gladiator. Only later did he realize the deeper meaning.
Obviously, one of the important ways to improve the level of the carrier is to "win" or "kill" other people's carriers, and Cheng Mo speculated that maybe killing the main body can obtain higher benefits. As for this benefit, it is experience.
Value or something else, Cheng Mo has no information at all at the moment. He will have to wait until he goes to the Pantheon to find out all of this during the summer vacation.
Last night, Cheng Mo was still full of confidence in his future. He thought that he could even make something as incredible as a carrier, and that curing his heart disease was just a matter of effort.
The wonderful feeling of being about to escape the shadow of death made him feel a rare pleasure. However, when he speculated that killing the main body could obtain more resources, Cheng Mo's pleasure immediately disappeared without a trace. This was really a tiger's den for him.
Before I could jump out, I entered Longtan again...
In fact, at that time, he thought that selling this piece of Ouroboros would be the safest way. However, after researching on the trading forum, he found that no one was selling his activated Ouroboros...
Cheng Mo even speculated that maybe when the body dies, this piece of Ouroboros will return to its inactive state, and the last owner of this piece of Ouroboros might be his father. Cheng Mo even shudders at the thought of this.
How did this piece of Ouroboros come into the hands of Li Jiting? How well does Li Jiting know the Chosen One? What is the relationship between his father and the Chosen One...
These puzzles are like heavy shackles surrounding the heart, consuming all the joy that Cheng Mo had when he first obtained the carrier. Cheng Mo's character is that of a typical person who is wary of danger in times of peace. Others have picked up such a miracle.
, I am afraid that I will go to heaven with joy and feel that the world is so wonderful and that I can do whatever I want in this world...
Cheng Mo also felt this way for a short moment, but the more he read the forum, the more palpitating he became, feeling that he might have entered a world that was more magical but also much more dangerous than the real world...
Cheng Mo got out of the car and walked to the classroom. His body was still unable to withstand the torture as always, but thinking about being able to use the carrier again at night, Cheng Mo was vaguely looking forward to it. Death is smiling at us all the time, and the only thing we can do is
It's positive ridicule.
This world is a huge arena. First, various species staged life-and-death battles here. When Homo sapiens stood at the top of the food chain, various races or countries began an endless battle.
Putting aside these communities of destiny, isn't every individual a gladiator?
Cheng Mo raised his head and stared at the four golden characters of Changya Middle School, thinking: This is just a fighting arena. Anyone who can become a master in the end has experienced the harsh environment and the competition rules of survival of the fittest.
...
At this moment, Cheng Mo has begun to work hard to accept the reality, hoping to quickly find new rules and learn to adapt, and then wait for the opportunity.
Cheng Mo feels that a strong person can become a strong person under any rules. A person like him can not only be a good student, but also can undoubtedly become a successful person in the future. However, Cheng Mo is not clear at this time. He just sees that
It's just a faint mist at the edge of the world.
It was a world with no rules at all that he could not imagine yet.
If there is one, then the only rule is - equivalent exchange.
——————————————————————————
Note 1: Gladiator - gladiator, also translated as "sword fighter", was a specially trained slave, liberated slave, freeman or prisoner of war in ancient Rome. They were armed with short swords, shields or other weapons.
They competed with each other to win the applause of the audience. In the Roman Empire about two thousand years ago, similar entertainment projects were very popular.
1. Gladiators do not fight animals. Those performers who fight animals in the arena are called "fighters" (bestiarii). In the eyes of the Romans, gladiators and gladiators were two completely different professions.
Hunting performances (venationes) and gladiatorial contests (munera) are also two different entertainment projects. In a day's entertainment activities in the arena, hunting performances are usually performed first, followed by public executions of condemned prisoners, and the final show is the gladiatorial contest.
2. Gladiators are not responsible for executing criminals. Death row criminals in the arena are often killed by hungry beasts.
3. Sometimes gladiators can surrender in battle (missio), and the loser may not be killed.
