At this moment, Raiser returned to the carriage, and everyone stopped whispering.
After a short while, the carriage entered the dark city.
Inside a huge cylindrical building.
Linda and the others were escorted through a long, dark passage. Suddenly, light shone brightly ahead, and a deafening roar of cheers erupted, along with the pungent smell of blood from the arena...
A circular seating area, reminiscent of the Roman Colosseum, was filled with men and women excitedly clutching tickets and shouting:
"Number 174, you have to survive! I've bet you £1,000!"
"Little girl number 35, try to survive for thirty seconds!"
"Number 36 is also very pretty, what a pity."
Linda and the others all had numbers on their bodies; he and his teammates were numbered 34, 35, and 36 respectively.
A rectangular scoreboard hangs suspended in the center of the arena, displaying the current number of participants as 100.
When only 10 people remain, the feast ends, and those who survive become fighters.
One hundred people stood in line under the direction of the security guards, while the three members of the Phoenix Tail Flower Squad were in the front row.
In the stands, Leiser wore a cold smile, as if to say that this was the consequence of offending him.
Three iron cages were pushed out, inside which were tigers that had been starving for several days. They were huge, and their roars were powerful and majestic.
The cage was opened, and they bared their fangs as they slowly walked towards us.
Everyone's expression changed.
Even the strongest gang fighter couldn't defeat a tiger with his bare hands!
These wild beasts, polluted by miasma in the wild, can weigh up to a thousand pounds, and a single cat-like punch can knock a soldier's head off.
But Monica's eyes lit up: just as the captain said, the beasts in this secret realm have no 'magic'.
What most people see as a fierce and terrifying tiger, Monica finds adorable, with its fluffy fur making her want to bury her face in it and rub against it.
Three tigers slowly walked towards them, their eyes scanning the crowd as they pondered which one to eat first.
At that moment, Monica suddenly screamed as Mark pushed her forward!
The onlookers immediately burst into laughter:
"Alright, alright, I love watching little girls get bullied!"
"I bet on number 35, sigh!"
"I want to see ketchup splatter everywhere!"
The bloodthirsty words were chilling.
Linda squinted at the smug Mark. Daring to bully the members of the Phoenix Flower team, she sentenced this guy to death.
Monica stumbled and fell to the ground, clumsily kowtowing to the tiger.
Everyone burst into laughter.
However, the condescending laughter abruptly stopped the next moment.
For some unknown reason, the tiger, which had been starving for several days, lay down trembling.
For tigers, lying down and exposing their necks is a sign of submission!
Most incredibly, the tiger even extended its front paws and placed its paw pads on the ground, acting as a cushion for Monica's forehead.
It's practically like... a big lickspittle!
Monica was also somewhat surprised. She hugged the tiger's head and tried to rub against it, but the tiger didn't resist at all; instead, it trembled even more violently...
Wild animals have far greater instincts than humans.
The tiger keenly sensed that the petite human before it was actually a top predator.
It is more powerful than anyone it has ever seen!
This adorable scene looks strangely out of place on the bloody and cruel fighting arena.
What the audience wants to see is a tiger devouring a man, not a little girl petting a cat!
Some people were angry, while others looked thoughtful.
The three tigers stood frozen in place, as if petrified.
The animal trainer came up to calm the animal down, only to find, to his dismay, that it was all in vain.
"You were locked up with that bear king last night, and you were terrified?"
The animal trainer muttered in confusion.
Insert the syringe containing the red liquid into the tiger's body.
"Awoo~!"
Instantly, the tiger roared in pain, its eyes turned red, its muscles swelled, and thick saliva flowed from its gaping maw.
Stimulated by that strange potion, the tiger became extremely ferocious.
The unlucky few in the front row soon met their end in the tiger's jaws.
Linda ran away with Monica.
90% of this secret realm is still unknown, so the Phoenix Tail Flower Squad must try to conceal their strength and avoid alerting the enemy.
Judging from the adventure objective on the World Tree Leaf, a 'god' exists within the secret realm. Although it's in quotes, since it's called a god, it's at least a hidden boss.
The goblin chieftain's level will be no lower than 15, and it might even be level 20.
The entire Phoenix Tail Flower Squad is level 19, so they need to proceed with caution when facing this kind of BOSS.
On the fighting stage, blood splattered everywhere.
Just a few minutes later, only ten people remained on the fighting stage.
The bastard who shoved Monica met his end thanks to Linda's behind-the-scenes manipulation.
The Phoenix Flower Squad passed the selection process and became fighters under the Hell's Dawn, while Linda and her teammates were assigned to male and female dormitories respectively.
"Monica is in your care now. Remember not to alert the werewolf when you're looking for him."
Linda placed Monica's small hand in Kaphni's palm.
"Leave it to me. You know my investigative abilities." Kafni was very confident: "As long as the werewolf is near the girls' dormitory, I'll just drag her out."
Monica looked at Linda with reluctance until the menacing-looking security personnel came over to urge them to part ways.
A little while later, they arrived at the dormitory. The security personnel had barely left when Linda and the other newcomers were given a 'warm welcome' by the veterans.
This is a large dormitory converted from an abandoned factory building, with two rows of iron beds lined up in a row, housing at least a hundred people.
Those who survive on the fighting stage are all formidable fighters, each one a burly, rugged man with a face full of menacing features.
Linda felt as if he had entered a room full of bullies, where he stood out as the only one with handsome features.
"Haha, a new person has arrived!"
"Six this time... Not bad, we'll have six people now, no more 'single'!"
"Hehehe, it's my turn, Mika, to choose first, right?"
A group of gay men, all over 1.8 meters tall, surrounded Linda and the other six newcomers. Seeing their puzzled expressions, one of the men, a burly man with a pink mohawk, chuckled and said:
"Here, every newcomer needs to find a 'husband' to rely on, right? Otherwise, with your meager strength, you'll be bullied to death very quickly. Are you going to be bullied by just one 'husband,' or by having everyone gang up on you... My little cuties, you should know how to choose, right?"
"You bastard, how dare you insult the warriors of the 'Blood Flower Gang'!"
A lean and fierce newcomer stepped forward and elbowed the man with the pink rooster-like haircut.
Unexpectedly, the latter reacted extremely quickly, ducking to avoid the attack and then slamming the newcomer to the ground... With a loud thud, the newcomer's spine was broken, leaving him crippled!
The expressions of the other newcomers, except for Linda, all changed.
Indeed, those who survived the jaws of a tiger are all outstanding individuals and skilled fighters.
But don't forget, these people in the dormitory are all 'fighters' who survived countless bloody battles and can be called fighting heroes!
