Chapter 200: Must Win!
"It can actually transform!"
When Gervis saw the appearance of the pig-headed man leader, he couldn't help but gasp. This was too exaggerated. After the transformation, the pig-headed man leader's body was more than two meters tall. Just imagine how terrifying a wild boar more than two meters tall would be.
What's frightening is not only the size, but mainly the speed of this pig-headed leader after the transformation is not affected by his huge body at all. Gervis estimated that it is almost catching up with the speed of a unicorn.
The two longbowmen had been aiming at the pig-headed man leader. When they saw the direction the pig-headed man leader was rushing towards, they had already noticed it and they immediately separated and fled to the left and right.
But they were just ordinary people. No matter how fast they were, how could they possibly beat the pig-headed man leader? Soon one of the longbowmen was caught up by the pig-headed man leader. After the transformation, the pig-headed man leader just arched his head slightly, and the longbowman in leather armor was pierced on the pig-headed man's one-meter-long fangs like a skewer.
"Pig-headed man! Pig-headed man!"
Because the pig-headed leader killed a longbowman, Gervis actually heard some of the audience starting to cheer for the pig-headed leader.
With the death of this longbowman, the pig-headed leader wanted to turn around and chase another longbowman, but the pig-headed leader's transformation seemed to have a time limit. After running for only three or five seconds, his body paused, a red light flashed, and the pig-headed leader returned to his normal orc form.
"Giri!"
Seeing that one of the longbowmen had died, the two men who had just fought with the pig-headed man leader had caught up and were attacking the pig-headed man leader desperately, while the longbowman who had run far away had stopped and shot the arrows from his longbow.
…
The battle lasted a total of 10 minutes and ended with the victory of humans.
Three people from the demon hunter team died and five were injured, while nine pig-headed men died. The only one alive was the pig-headed man leader, but he was already dying at this moment. His hands and feet had been chopped off by the demon hunter team. He only had one last breath left. Even if the orcs had strong vitality, they would eventually die from excessive blood loss within twenty minutes.
With the defeat of the orcs, some spectators were happy while others were sad. The happy ones kissed the tickets in their hands, cheered with joy, jumped and cheered about how much they had won. The worried ones were the people who had placed their bets on the orcs. They tore up the papers in their hands and scattered them everywhere, spitting into the field from time to time and cursing.
It was not until this moment that Gervis understood why someone had just cheered for the Pig-Headed Man.
"Pat, why haven't they killed this pig-headed leader yet?"
Gervis did not pay much attention to the gamblers' worries, but continued to look at the field. He saw that except for a few people who were taking care of the wounded, the rest of the demon hunters were dragging the huge pig-headed leader towards a stone platform on the side of the field.
"Of course I made money! Gervis, do you want to experience it later?"
Pat was still excited. Although the fat boy didn't dare to kill the orcs himself, he felt very excited when he saw others fighting. When the last pig-headed man fell, he started spinning excitedly like a top.
"make money?"
A possibility suddenly occurred to Gervis' mind.
Sure enough, not long after, a bell rang in the arena. After the bell rang, everyone seemed to know what it meant. They all sat back in their seats and stopped cheering and talking. Suddenly, the entire arena became quiet.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you very much to the Demon Hunter Team for bringing us a wonderful fight today. Now it's time to select the heroes. I wonder which hero will end the life of this vicious pig-headed leader today? Let us wait and see!"
"Low price 50 silver coins! Start now! Brave men, please shout!"
the host shouted loudly holding a cylindrical speaker.
"I'll give you 60 silver coins!"
"I'll give you 70 silver coins!"
As the host finished speaking, a lot of bidding sounds were heard near Gervis.
When Gervis heard the bidding, he did not mind wasting time. Instead, his eyes lit up. Looking at the dying pig-headed leader on the high platform at the side of the field, Gervis was eager to try.
“…”
"I'll offer two 50-silver gold coins!"
"Five gold coins!"
As more and more bidders came in, the price kept rising. This was Gervis' first time participating in the auction in the arena, and he didn't know what the price was in the past. However, he was determined to win the pig-headed leader today. In order to curb the momentum of everyone continuing to bid, Gervis directly doubled the price of 2 gold coins and 50 silver coins and shouted out 5 gold coins.
Sure enough, when Gervis called out the price, the audience who were about to continue bidding immediately paused and looked towards Gervis in surprise.
Such activities can often be seen in the arena. As long as people have the ability to capture the orc leader alive, they will auction the opportunity to do it. After all, most of them participate in the arena just for money.
Usually such auctions can earn them an additional 4 to 10 gold coins.
Of course, how much money one can earn also depends on the type of orcs. For some orc leaders who look ferocious and powerful, the audience is more willing to act as this hero. Not only can they gain face under the attention of the public, but it can also be a good topic of conversation when they go out.
This pig-headed man is not weak, but not strong either. According to past experience, he could only be auctioned for 4 to 5 gold coins at most. However, no one expected that someone would directly offer 5 gold coins today, which is almost the highest price for a pig-headed man.
"That brave man offered 5 gold coins. Are there any other brave men who want to bid?"
"5 gold coins for the first time!"
The host looked around, trying to find another bidder to raise the price, but he found that all the bidders were frightened by Gervis's determination to win. The atmosphere became silent for a moment, and the host could only ring the first bell helplessly.
"5 gold coins and 20 silver coins!"
"Okay, that brave man bids 5..."
"6 gold coins!"
"Wow! Who is this person? Why is he raising the price so generously?"
"He's not only generous, but also very handsome. I wonder if he's married. If not..."
Gervis thought that the 5 gold coins from the pig-headed man would fall into his pocket, but he didn't expect that someone else would come forward to bid. Gervis didn't give the host a chance to finish speaking and directly increased the price to 6 gold coins.
For the sake of energy points, even if the final price was 10 gold coins, Gervis was not going to let it go. After all, gold coins could be earned again, but the opportunity to obtain energy points was not so easy to come by.
"That young hero offered 6 gold coins. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
Maybe it was because Gervis was really in high spirits today, or maybe the pig-headed man was only worth so much in people's hearts, and no one stepped forward to continue bidding. When the bronze bell was rang for the third time by the host, the right to kill the pig-headed man leader fell into Gervis' hands. Gervis also played the role of a brave man.
"Sir, please follow me!"
When the bidding was settled, a servant of the Colosseum immediately came to Gervis and respectfully led Gervis to the back corridor, wanting to go to the central square of the Colosseum. The only passage was underground, thus ensuring the safety of all spectators.
