Chapter 904 Survival Game 92
The battle between man and beast.
Tao Ran's martial arts skills were on display, and it was difficult for this kind of unstructured force attack to cause any substantial harm to her.
It took almost six minutes for the beast to fall to the ground.
It's a little bloody, but fortunately it's all an illusion.
Tao Ran won and only suffered some superficial injuries.
The so-called "huge reward" is just five hundred points.
That’s all.
Tao Ran was brought to the cage where all gladiators should go. She was given a meal: a piece of stiff bread and a jug of cold water.
Just as she was about to be put into the cage, someone called her to stop.
She didn't expect that there was a plot to this.
A noble-looking man came and looked her over from top to bottom, then nodded and asked her to come out.
"You just did a great job."
The man handed over a piece of paper.
It turned out that the mayor issued an announcement and was recruiting warriors.
But the mayor never found a suitable candidate.
No, his subordinates can only choose the bravest, strongest, most powerful, and most resourceful people from the lowest strata of society, fighters without freedom.
Now Tao Ran was spotted by the mayor's recruiter because of his performance in the arena, so he got a chance.
So Tao Ran now got a recruitment order.
As long as she is willing to serve the mayor, she can be free.
If she can complete the mayor's task, she will not only become an honorary citizen, but also receive a huge reward.
"So, girl, are you willing to accept this opportunity that can help you escape from your current predicament and regain your life?"
"May I know what I have to do?"
"You'll find out soon enough. All you have to do is tell me, are you willing to accept the opportunity?"
"I do." Of course I do.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Ran..." Ran, it sounds too weak, just be a princess, but here, let's give it a new name. "Call me otherwise."
"Okay, otherwise, girl, congratulations, you are now a free man. Please come with me."
She was taken into a baroque building.
When going upstairs, Tao Ran saw the sign on the 63rd floor.
She was asked to change her clothes.
Afterwards, she was brought to a large group of nobles.
The status of this group of people is obviously much higher than that of the previous group of Colosseum spectators.
Holding silver wine glasses, they sat on the leather sofas, looked at the group of people including Tao Ran, and then chose the one with the right eye to place their bets.
Place a bet? Are you recruiting warriors just for gambling?
Tao Ran carefully observed the other people standing in a row with her and found that they were not real people, but NPCs.
She was told that a battle selection would be held next.
The rules of the game released by the system have also come out.
Same as the first two levels: gladiatorial combat. You still have to survive until the end to pass. It's just that the target has been changed from beasts to NPCs. If you fail, you will go straight to level 61 and start again.
As for the arena, Tao Ran took a look and realized, ha, hexagonal arena. In her eyes, isn't this the arena she's best at?
It seems that the name was chosen well this time.
Otherwise, Tao is the king of the ring!
A group of nobles began to place bets one after another.
As expected, no one was optimistic about Tao Ran betting on her to win.
Tao Ran glanced at the group of nobles, and finally locked his eyes on a man in black clothes and a black hat. This person's outfit is incompatible with the others. Isn't it too weird? And Tao Ran felt that his "aura" was stronger than others.
Just like the protagonist and the supporting actor, the light on them is different.
Although she doesn't think this person looks like the protagonist, he is probably a supporting character and an important NPC? …
Before the magistrate called for the start, Tao Ran stood up.
"Wait a minute! No one is considering taking me into custody?" she said suddenly.
It's not that she's full, nor is she trying to gain some reputation, but she simply wants to try and see if she can make some profit.
If the NPC in this plot is special, it must be to serve the plot. So will this place be like the fairy tale world, with branch lines in the plot? Will there be hidden tasks? Will the favorability of each NPC be brushable? Can each story be developed and changed?
In the fairy tale world, she has benefited a lot and accumulated huge advantages. Although she is making up for her lagging behind in the scientific world, she is still several levels behind the fastest players.
So she wanted to try and see if she could find a shortcut to overtake again.
In addition, just as she once again adhered to her original plan and stole the spotlight, she could always earn some extra points by doing more things.
Sure enough, Tao Ran's words immediately attracted huge attention.
The group of nobles began to laugh.
"It's ridiculous enough that a woman is here, but she is also a beautiful and stupid woman who has no self-awareness. Why do you think you can defeat other warriors?"
"Have you seen the muscles of these warriors? Have you seen their burly bodies? They are almost as big as you two, and they can crush you with just a move of their fingers!"
"Yes, if we bet on you, wouldn't we definitely lose? Why should we do this?"
Tao Ran glanced at the group of "warriors" around her who were about to fight with her, but no, they all had the figure of a fighter and the size of a wrestler, and she just didn't fit in among them.
But, good news! These NPCs ignored her.
Obviously, the NPC here has independent thoughts, which shows that her judgment is correct. The plot here is definitely developable!
As soon as she mastered her acting skills, she put away her previous aura. She looked aggrieved and pitiful. She formed a more sharp contrast with the big and round warriors around her, and she looked like a weak and incompetent little rabbit.
"Then I...I..." Her eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry. "Am I the least favored now?"
"Yes! Girl, everyone thinks you will lose."
"I'm not afraid of losing, but I can't lose without dignity. Can I... bet on myself to win?" Tao Ran's voice was trembling. Are these people betting on gladiatorial games here just for fun? Then she would contribute some fun.
Everyone laughed, "Do you have money? What do you pledge?"
As soon as Tao Ran's eyelids closed, two lines of tears fell down.
A nobleman took out two gold coins and said, "As a gentleman, how can you watch a girl cry? How can you make a girl lose face? These two coins are my reward for the girl. You can take it yourself or take this." Take it."
Tao Ran was very grateful. After thanking her, she fixed her eyes on the other "gentlemen" with her babbling eyes - if they belonged to a gentleman, they would pay her as soon as possible!
Others thought it was quite interesting, and for the sake of their own dignity, they also took out the gold and silver coins and threw them to Tao Ran. We are all nobles and gentlemen and cannot fall behind others.
Anyway, in their hearts, this girl always loses. These gold and silver coins bet on her, and eventually they are thrown into the gambling pool, and finally fall into the hands of the winner.
So it doesn't matter.
Tao Ran grasped their mentality, so he easily collected eight gold coins and more than thirty silver coins.
