Chapter 745: Venue selection, first showdown!
"Dear guests, dear fanatical fighters, dear bloodthirsty spectators..."
"Welcome to the place of death!"
After almost all the spectators in the reserved seats in the auditorium were seated, powerful waves of war songs with passionate words came from the center of the venue.
Under everyone's gaze, the floor tiles in the center of the ring flipped over, and a metal platform slowly rose up, with a humanoid creature with flames all over his body standing on it.
He held a microphone in his hand, and the eight huge speakers around the metal platform were pounding the air.
The flaming man looked at the players sitting in the audience and spoke in an even more passionate voice, "Let me introduce myself. I'm the host of this match, the referee, and the director—and I'm also the most trusted deputy and closest companion of the God of Fairness and Judgment!"
"You can call me 'Earl of Fire'!"
The host shouted, and the master led the applause.
"Okay."
As the Grandmaster clapped his hands, the entire Order also started clapping, and everyone in the audience and even the members of the organization sitting opposite Order began to applaud.
The applause seemed to greatly benefit the host named "Earl of Fire". He stood on the metal platform with his arms outstretched, enjoying the applause from all directions.
Then he coughed lightly.
"Ahem, then, let's see what 'venue themes' will be drawn for today's duel! Each 'venue theme' will correspond to different duel rules. At the request of both parties, this time's theme and accompanying rules will be strongly related to 'combat'!"
“After the selection is made, I will introduce the specific rules for each venue theme!”
Earl shouted, and then bubbles filled with changing illusions flew out from under the metal platform.
A total of five bubbles flew out, each containing a different scene illusion.
Earl also introduced himself.
"The five themes available for selection today have been confirmed!"
“The first venue theme – Storm!”
Earl pointed to the first bubble, which showed a scene of swirling clouds and mist.
"The second venue theme - drowning!"
In the second bubble, there was a turbulent, dark water area.
“The third venue theme – Splendor!”
The third bubble is filled with changing five-colored light.
"The fourth venue theme - Falling!"
The fourth bubble showed a scene of a towering cliff.
"The fifth venue theme - Night!"
The last bubble was dark as ink.
After introducing the names of the five themes, Earl said, "In this game, both parties can remove one theme and then choose a theme from the remaining three."
“The venue will randomly alternate between the two final selected venue themes.”
Earl said this, raising his hands and pointing in the direction where the "Free Alliance" and "Order" were sitting.
"Well then—please, Mr. Gambler and Mr. Comedian, the initiators of the gambling match, please decide on the representative who will select the theme!"
Li Hua raised his hand: "I can do it myself."
Earle: "Okay - Mr. Li Hua has chosen himself as the representative of the theme selection."
The comedian laughed. "You guys are really cheating by letting someone who can see the 'probability' choose... Then we'll choose a similar one."
Lin Yu was a little surprised when he heard the comedian's words.
Among the people from the "Freedom Alliance" present, is there anyone who can predict the probability or something like that?
But before Lin Yu could figure it out, he saw the comedian looking at the seat of the "Predator".
"Fortune teller, old fortune teller, please help me!"
The fortune teller who was resting with his eyes closed was shocked. He opened his eyes and looked at the smiling comedian, then spoke.
"Your 'Freedom Alliance' affairs are somewhat related to the 'Psychological Society'. Why are you looking for me?"
"That's right. Aren't our three families of the same blood?" The comedian stood up from his seat, drew a perfect circle in the air with a marker, and stepped into it. Then his upper body emerged from beside the fortune teller and he patted him on the shoulder. "I won't let you work in vain! I'll ask Old Wu for some of his magical props later!"
"Although his things are very popular, I can't use them."
The fortune teller still politely declined.
The comedian still didn't give up: "You can't use it, take it back to build your organization. Ayu, Wenhuo, Pluto... they must have been wanting it for a long time."
"Besides, think about it, even though helping us won't really benefit you, it will definitely disgust 'Order'."
The comedian said this and the fortune teller pondered for two seconds.
"it is good."
The comedian was delighted and waved to Earl, "We choose 'Fortune Teller' as the theme representative!"
The fortune teller also stood up and looked at Li Hua across the arena.
Although he was being stared at directly by the second-ranked expert and leader of the "Predators", Li Hua remained calm.
Earl spoke again: "May I ask what theme you chose to remove..."
The two of them just glanced at the five bubbles and immediately gave the answer.
"I chose to remove the fifth theme, 'Night.'"
Li Hua pushed his glasses and said calmly.
The fortune teller played with the coins in his hand and counted on his fingers: "I choose to remove the second theme of 'drowning'."
The two people who have the ability to predict and see the probability are so direct.
There is no need for any additional analysis, just use your existing abilities to come up with the answer.
The same is true for the next three choices.
"Okay, with 'Drowning' and 'Night' out of the way... then each of you can choose one of the remaining three venue themes."
"storm."
"come down."
Li Hua and the fortune teller spoke one after another, and this time the answers were more concise.
"Okay - the final choices are 'Storm' and 'Fall'!"
Earl said, opening his arms.
"I'll show you... This is 'Storm'!"
The chains around the arena tightened, and slightly vibrating metal plates extended from the edge of the arena, turning the entire arena into an enclosed iron barrel-like structure.
At the same time, part of the floor tiles in the venue were lifted up, and strong rotating air currents continuously gushed out from them, forming dozens of tornadoes in the huge venue!
Earl's commentary began, "In the Storm Theme Park, a constant stream of tornadoes will be generated by the eye of the storm, and a 'storm wall' will rise around it. Each time a tornado hits the storm wall, its wind speed increases, and when they collide with each other, they merge into a stronger tornado."
The metal plates were then removed and the tornadoes in those areas quickly dissipated.
then……
Some of the stone bricks in the arena suddenly began to rise, forming a series of winding and crisscrossing narrow stone paths.
The stone paths are about ten meters high and almost level with the audience seats. At the same time, these stone paths change every once in a while.
New bricks rise and old bricks fall.
And below, lavender smoke spread out.
“In the Falling Land, the floor will be filled with a gas that puts people to sleep upon inhalation, and the stone bricks in the land will rise or fall.”
After Earl's introduction, the venue was restored.
"Whether it's the Storm or the Fall, there are only two conditions for victory."
"One party voluntarily admitted defeat."
"One party is completely unconscious for more than ten seconds."
After introducing the rules, Earl spoke again.
"Alright... all the rules have been introduced - let's look forward to the first match!"
"Nicholas versus the Prisoner!"
