Outlander’s Journey

If you want to make an analogy, Flash City is similar to Los Angeles on Earth.

Among the world’s three largest airship manufacturing companies, ‘Windless Bird’ and ‘Hiram’ are located in the city. At the same time, the food and clothing industries here are also extremely developed. Because the world's largest airship airport and important port "Flashing Port" are located in this city, the cargo throughput ranks first in the world.

It took more than seven hours for the train to finally reach Flash City, but Heather's travel destination was not here.

The travel writer Guo Gai met on the train before got off the train halfway through and didn't even dare to say hello. It seems that he also understood that his hidden intention was discovered by Heather, and then he strayed away.

But Heather didn't take this person to heart at all, instead focused all his attention on the novel.

After leaving the train station, Heather chose the very famous restaurant in the city, Gaoyan Fireplace Hall, as the battle place for his dinner based on the recommendations in the "Flash City Travel Guide".

Gaoyan Fireplace Hall, as its name suggests, is a restaurant specializing in barbecue. This is a barbecue restaurant that specializes in using open-fire ovens. The whole sausage, the appearance is slightly charred, and the ribs waiting to be cut, and the tender and juicy beef brisket. These dazzling meats are like Christmas tree lights, happily hung in circles. Next to the large open fire oven in the center of the restaurant.

The recommended menu that the store is proud of is the "Grand Set Menu". The super large plate is stacked with thick slices of tender and juicy grilled beef brisket, crispy charred skin mixed salad, trembling pure meat sausages, and ribs with rich sweet sauce. A bowl contains 32 kinds. Seasoned sauce (can be continued indefinitely), kimchi, baked potatoes cut in half, and served with a bottle of cold beer freshly picked from ice.

Heather must admit that the meal was really enjoyable.

Arrived at Hiram International Airport at 8:40 in the evening, which is located at the northernmost tip of Flash City and even Ulubian continent. As long as you reach the airship from here, you can go to the Sky Arena.

There are no planes in the Hunter World, but there are a lot of airships.

The airship ticket of 100,000 jinni is really worth the price. There is a super giant airship the size of a football field. The speed of the airship is not slow. The airship meal of Hiram Airlines is simple but tastes quite good, especially the coffee and The cake is a must.

Ding Dong!

"Dear passengers, thank you for taking the airship of Hiram Airlines. The Sky Arena is coming soon. Please do not leave your seat and walk around. There will be slight vibrations when landing, please don’t worry..."

Heather lifted the blindfold, stretched out comfortably, and looked out of the airship window next to him.

The weather was not so good, and I saw a huge tower with various buildings and exhibition stands on the surface rising up the sky, looking from a distance like a giant sword stirring the heavy clouds.

The Sky Arena, with a total of 251 floors and a height of 919 meters, is the fourth tallest building in the world.

Following the crowds and walking out of the airport platform, Heather found dozens of special buses parked at the door leading directly to the Sky Arena. The Sky Arena is located in the ‘Yosk Special Zone’ of Archifir’s mainland, adjacent to the Republic of Batokya. All public facilities, residential buildings and even cities around it are built entirely around the Sky Arena.

Sky Arena, the bottom of the tower.

Heather looked at the almost endless line of people and couldn't help scratching his head: "Is it so lively?"

Looking down at the brochure in his hand, this is a free brochure distributed by the tour guide to each queued person.

[There are no strict rules, as long as you can defeat your opponent, you can advance. 】

[Every time a player advances, the floor they are on will rise, and the bonus will increase as the floor rises. 】

[An average of 4,000 people challenge higher floors every day. 】

[More than one billion spectators enter the venue every year, with all kinds of facilities in the venue. 】

[High-level fighters can even own an entire floor. 】

[This is a holy land for barbarians, a paradise for fighters. 】

The line looked long, and its implementation speed was very fast, and within an hour it was Heather's turn.

"Welcome to the Sky Arena, please fill in the information here. Because it is related to the opponent and difficulty, please fill in truthfully in order to ensure your safety."

At the registration window, the female receptionist wearing a uniform with a fist pattern looked sweet and had a gentle voice, and handed the form to Heather with both hands.

Name, age, and gender are not a problem, mainly the last item [fighting experience]. Heather thought for a while and filled in [15 years].

In this way, you can arrange a referee with good eyesight and a more interesting opponent for yourself, right?

When you walk into the lobby on the first floor of the Sky Arena, you can really realize what a huge building this is. In addition to the lobby that can accommodate thousands of people, there are also several'small' venues, each of which has its own. Number.

Heather, numbered [2415], was assigned to Division F. This is a huge square arena, with hundreds of people sitting scattered in the audience seats in four directions. Among them are contestants who are ready to play and avid spectators who are betting and shouting.

There are 16 square stages in the center of the venue, 4X4, two people are fighting hard on each stage, and each stage has its own referee for review.

"Participants No. 2415 and No. 1793, please go to the K ring."

After sitting in the stands for a short while, it was Heather's turn to play. It seemed that the computer would draw the numbers immediately.

Amidst the noisy cheers of the spectators in the stands, Heather and a giant man with muscular muscles walked onto the ring, not knowing who the cheers of those spectators were for.

"It's Montel! Lucky for this guy, his opponent is a skinny monkey!"

"Boy, don't be scared to pee on your pants hahaha!"

"Change me! This is the best chance to advance!"

Heather twitched, well, the cheers didn't seem to be for him.

The squinted referee stood by the ring and explained with a sharp glance:

"On the first level of the game, the strength of the contestants will be judged based on the victory or defeat. Please give full play to your strength within three minutes."

"So... start!"

The giant man called Montel quack quack squeezed his finger joints and made a muffled noise: "Boy, don't blame me for taking a heavy hand. Go to the hospital to lie down for two months!"

The whole figure bowed toward Heather like an angry male rhinoceros, and the ring was slammed with heavy footsteps. Very good, just KO this four-eyed little monkey with just one punch!

He hit Heather with a punch, and before he was proud, he realized that there was no actual touch on the fist. He just hit the afterimage of Heather. Then Montell felt a numbness in his stomach, and as the foreground of his eyes became blurred and retreated quickly, he realized that he was flying.

The clamor in the stands stopped abruptly like a hen caught by the neck.

From the perspective of the referee and the spectators, a sturdy giant over two meters tall was blasted from the arena with a punch and flew several meters high, like a cannonball, and slammed into a solid wall tens of meters away. This visual impact is really too much.

"Don't worry, he is still alive."

Heather looked at the dull-faced referee, and he smiled. Isn't he a fried fish?

"No. 2415, you can go directly to the fiftieth floor."

Facing Heather’s deliberate [reading] at this time, the referee didn’t notice it at all. He just typed out a bill with the instrument in his hand and handed it to Heather: "Please continue to cheer."

That's right, why can the referee who can see the read be sent to the first floor to see the rookie pecking each other? Heather, who felt like he was glaring at the blind man, took the bill, with his number and floor printed on it.

"This way, please."

It's a beautiful waitress again, and Sky Arena knows it well. Heather followed the lively waitress to the elevator, with a sweet whistling voice in his ears:

"In the sky arena up to the 200th floor, the tenth floor is the first level, which means that if you win at the 50th floor, you will be promoted to the 60th floor. If you lose, you will be demoted to the 40th floor. There will even be private rooms after passing the 100th floor."

After finally getting rid of the lively waitress, Heather reached the 60th floor via the elevator.

The atmosphere here is completely different from the first layer. There are fewer players, but each is a well-trained player.

I found the reception window and showed the bill, and the bonus was only a poor 152 jinni.

"That's enough to buy a can of juice."

Heather reluctantly stuffed the coins into his pocket and said to the receptionist: "Please arrange the next game for me as soon as possible."

"Huh? This player, don't you need to take a break?" The receptionist was a little surprised. Didn't this person just rise from the lower level? It should be very tired.

"No need at all, please arrange it for me."

"Okay, please wait...Then please go to the player lounge with this ticket."

There are only a few rows of lockers and benches in the humble lounge, and contestants are everywhere in the room. As soon as Heather came in, he received the attention of many players. Everyone was wondering how this thin, four-eyed frog was put into the fiftieth floor. Did he bribe the referee?

"Mr. Tuomaxie, Mr. Longsimian, please go to the 55th floor A arena."

"Mr. Mario, Ms. Kuba, please go to the fifty-seventh floor B ring."

Huh? Did you hear a strange name just now? Heather sat in the lounge waiting boredly, it seemed that there were different arenas scattered among the ten floors for the players to fight.

About twenty minutes later, Heather heard his name appear on the radio.

"Mr. Dakardo, Mr. Heather, please go to the C ring on the fifty-ninth floor."

The C arena on the fifty-ninth floor is different from the first floor. The auditorium that can accommodate thousands of people is already full. The lights are on the only arena in the center. The two sides that are about to fight are waiting for the referee to give instructions.

"Dear viewers! I have kept you waiting for a long time!"

"The next game will never let you down!"

The voice of the hostess wearing the headset mobilized the audience's emotions very quickly:

"The two sides of the competition should not be underestimated! Because both of them are strong players who performed well on the first floor and jumped directly to the fiftieth floor! Now the big screen will broadcast the previous battle between the two."

The four large screens hanging on the top of the ring simultaneously played the battle between Heather and the Dakardo.

"Mr. Dakardo is like a mountain that does not move, no matter what kind of attack falls on him, he will not be able to leave any scars! The wind of the counterattack can even blow the curtain above the auditorium!"

"Mr. Heather moves as fast as lightning, and the extremely fast speed can create an afterimage effect. There is infinite strange power in his thin body. A giant man weighing two hundred kilograms was hit directly by him!"

"Everyone, are you ready to place your bet? So, press the button now!"

drop--! !

The screen shows that the odds of Heather and Dakardo are 2.075 and 1.500 respectively.

"The result of the betting is that Dakardo is more optimistic! As expected, it is because of the invincible defense that makes everyone more confident in Dakardo, right?"

Hey, I was underestimated.

Heather moved his arm and looked across. The man named Dakardo was a burly man about two meters tall. His naked upper body had no scars, and his shaved scalp was glowing blue. At this time, he stared at Heather with scorching eyes, full of confidence.

"This round will be played in three minutes and three rounds, with a point knockout system."

"Start!"
