Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Meng Chao was stunned for a long time before he said, "That is to say, cruel gladiatorial fights can happen anytime, anywhere?"

"That's right, on the street, in taverns, in casinos, where there are more people and more lively places, there are more chances of wrestling."

Ice Storm explained, "The process and rules of the gladiatorial fight have been greatly simplified. A clan warrior walking swaggeringly on the road, seeing members of rival clans, enemies with old grudges, or just looking at the ugly warriors opposite, can send out Generally speaking, the other party will never and cannot refuse an invitation to a gladiatorial fight. Anyone who refuses this kind of invitation will be ridiculed by everyone. Never imagine that in the next war, he will command the troops and snatch valuable spoils .

"Similarly, they can also continue to increase their bets under the watchful eyes of everyone-resources, armor, and even the affiliation of the two parties can be used to gamble. For example, two clan warriors have a team of hundreds of servants under their command. , They wrestled, and after the winner was decided, the winner would have the right to command the loser's team, while the loser would become the victor's lieutenant, obeying the winner's orders during the war, which roughly meant this.

"Of course, it's okay to play black hands and fight sap, but if you don't fight in the open and aboveboard, you won't be able to win the opponent's surrender and promote your reputation.

"As for casualties, there will definitely be. Although high-level orcs have rough skin and thick flesh, it is not common for them to be beaten to death in gladiatorial fights, but when it did happen, it was not a big deal, it was just responding to the call of the ancestors.

"According to the traditions of the Turan people, this kind of unlimited gladiatorial fight is called the 'Game of the Brave', but in my opinion, it is more like the last madness before blood for the alliance. It is a battle that will last for a long time. The half-month carnival is also before the expedition, offering the richest sacrifice to the ancestors, using blood and death as sacrifices, hoping that the ancestors will bestow good luck on the entire clan."

Meng Chao clicked his tongue when he heard that.

I have a deeper understanding of the bravery of the high-level orcs.

"Will there be a 'James of the Brave' every time the Age of Glory starts?" he asked.

"That's not true. If the two eras of glory are close enough, the heroes of the last war have not yet fallen, and they can rely on prestige to effectively control the clan's army, then there is no need to play 'Games of the Brave'."

Ice Storm said, "If a certain family is particularly powerful and an Xeon with absolute dominance emerges, then under the command of the Xeon, there is no need to play a 'game of the brave'.

"But like this time, the heroes of the past have fallen one after another, and the major families have recharged their batteries in the long era of prosperity, expanded wildly, and countless proud and arrogant soldiers have emerged. A 'game for the brave', if they are convinced, will be more conducive to the next battle command - this is the truth that thousands of years of war experience tells us."

"so……"

Meng Chao still couldn't believe it, "The people who died in 'James of the Brave' just... died in vain?"

"If you die in 'James of the Brave', it means that the dead are not strong enough."

Ice Storm said as a matter of course, "Since you are not strong enough, dying in 'James of the Brave' is the best ending.

"After all, it's better for a weak person to die in Blackhorn City than to let him lead thousands of troops and die on the battlefield. While killing himself, he also killed countless subordinates and colleagues, causing the battle line to collapse and losing the war. ,right?"

"It seems reasonable, what about the totem armor?"

Meng Chao was still more concerned about this question, "The winner can snatch the totem armor of the loser at will?"

"Theoretically, as long as the winner has confidence, he can eat the loser's totem armor."

Ice Storm said, "In practice, there is a limit to the amount of totem armor that a totem warrior can absorb—it's easy to understand, a warrior wearing a layer of armor is definitely stronger than a warrior without armor, but wearing ten A warrior with one layer of heavy armor may not be as powerful as a warrior wearing two or three layers of heavy armor, because the former is likely to have been crushed to death by ten layers of heavy armor. mean?"

"clear."

Meng Chao nodded, "Too much is too much, any power is a double-edged sword."

The same is true of the cultivation system of Dragon City civilization.

The realm is not the higher the better.

The higher the realm, the more psionic energy will flow into the brain and stimulate the brain, making people hear more chaotic sounds, see more weird pictures, and be more susceptible to the influence of "Primeval Call", and As for being obsessed and reduced to a deformed and twisted monster.

According to Luo Wu, the first person Meng Chao knew who was at the peak of the heavenly realm, the "Breaking Soul Knife", he had already possessed the strength to hit the divine realm, but he hadn't dared to take this step for a long time because he was worried about the divine realm. The backlash of the power.

However, the former No. 1 master of Dragon City, "War God" Lei Zongchao, in his twilight years as a martyr, can only curl up in the "War God Hall" that is isolated from spiritual interference, his flesh and blood body is in a state of entanglement between life and death. It is also a manifestation of this backlash.

The totem armor just made this backlash more concrete.

"The winner usually does not deprive the loser of a full set of totem armor, but only symbolically snatches a little bit, allowing the loser to swear to the ancestors in full view that he will obey the winner's orders during the entire era of glory, so that , the victor also indirectly possesses all the fighting power of the loser."

Ice Storm further explained, "Of course, many low-born clan warriors were far from reaching the upper limit of their own totem armor before the start of 'Game of the Brave', so they tend to be more ruthless in attacking, regardless of Sanqi Twenty-one, grab enough armor fragments first.

"And such a person is also the most likely to be devoured by the fierce soul hidden in the fragments of the armor, and transform into a 'origin warrior'.

"But no matter how the totem armor is circulated, it is actually not a loss for the entire Bloodhoof clan.

"Because the totem armor can store the master's combat experience and killing skills, and transfer these experiences and skills to the next master's brain, the masters fight and kill, life and death, but the totem armor will always exist, and become stronger and stronger.

"So, every time the 'Game of the Brave' is played more intensely, the casualties of the major families seem to be more severe, but in fact, they have obtained a large number of warriors with actual combat experience and more powerful totem armor, which can definitely be used in battle. In a real war, even more terrifying combat power erupts."

"I understand, like a rusty war machine, it needs a lot of blood and the lubrication of internal organs to start rumbling, and in the shortest time...to the limit."

Meng Chao murmured, "Does everyone want to participate in 'James of the Brave'?"

"Of course not. If you are afraid of death, just hide in the blood skull arena obediently. Even the elite warriors of the Iron Skin family can't break into the blood skull arena to die, right?"

Ice Storm said, "However, in this way, you won't be able to publicize your bravery. Instead, you will be ridiculed as a coward who only dares to fight in a 'well-behaved' manner on the arena. Consider yourself following a cowardly master.

"What's more, the major families will allocate troops, resources, and combat tasks based on the results of the next half month. Those who have gained nothing in the 'Game of the Brave' will be sent to defend the city or the transport team. Only the real Only those who are brave can enjoy the glory of sieging cities and destroying villages—and glory is everything for the warriors of Turan.”

Meng Chao nodded, stared at the snow leopard female warrior and said, "So, Master Ice Storm will also participate in 'James of the Brave', right?"

"Yes, I will definitely participate."

Ice Storm said calmly, "Since you killed Big Buck, I don't need to hide it from you. My purpose is not to publicize my name, to win a higher position and more troops in the Bloodhoof army, and other boring things like that.

"My purpose is only one, and that is to get more totem armor fragments.

"Although the 'Mithril Ripper' is already very strong, I feel that it has not yet evolved to the limit that I can bear.

"In other words, what I'm going to do in Chijin City requires me to have a stronger totem armor, preferably ten times stronger than the current Mithril Ripper.

"Even if, even if tomorrow I will become a 'Samurai of Origin', today, I will devour more totem armor fragments!

"To stabilize the power of the totem in my body and reduce the probability of becoming an 'origin warrior', I must simultaneously devour a large amount of golden fruit, the flesh and core of the totem beast, feed the monster hidden in my body, and pass More fights, vent its ferocity.

"That's why I have to master a team of hundreds of people. Only in this way can I get enough resources and capital to gamble with other bloodhoof experts-if I have half a soldier under my command If there are none, even if others are willing to compete with me, it is impossible for them to put up a lot of resources as a bet.

"According to the practice of several 'Games of the Brave' in the past hundreds of years, when the carnival in Pointe-Noire City was at its peak, small-scale street battles were no longer enjoyable enough, with hundreds or even thousands of servants under his command The powerhouses in the city will often mobilize their own soldiers and horses to the open area outside Blackhorn City to carry out larger-scale events between weapon fights, drills and wars..."

"A practical exercise?"

Meng Chao thought of a suitable word.

"That's right, it's an actual combat exercise to prepare for the next real war."

Ice Storm said, "And on the day when the blood is forged, almost all families will pull their main force outside the city to conduct the largest actual combat exercise, using blood, gunpowder smoke and shouting to please the ancestors. In the past half month, the well-known powerhouses made their grand debut in front of all the Bloodhoof clansmen.

"Then, it's time to offer sacrifices to the ancestors, sign a covenant, take oaths, and march out.

"As long as there are enough servants under my command, when it comes to the actual combat exercise, I will be able to gain more room for movement, and move to the edge of the exercise range without anyone noticing.

"Then, while everyone's attention is focused on the center of the exercise field, escape from this ghostly place!"
