Trafford’s Trading Club

The arena was crowded - at first.

But I don’t know since when, crowding has become a luxury... When there are fewer and fewer companions around them, some people who are still sober will only feel despair from the bottom of their hearts.

Even though there is a random erasure mechanism, the weak can never distance themselves from the strong... Five minutes is enough for a strong to attack and kill many weak.

Letting the weak become your trump card for [resurrection] seems to be the real way to play this gladiatorial challenge.

…

"There is something wrong with the guy who was resurrected just now." On the white tower stand, next to the throne of the Scarlet Duke, the young man in white robe suddenly looked at the Scarlet Duke and said: "You did not really resurrect the original guy in the arena, you are a liar."

"It's true, Grand Duke Pan." The Scarlet Grand Duke smiled gracefully and calmly, "I never said that the one who was resurrected was the original one."

"Word game." The boy in white robe waved his hand, looking bored.

The Scarlet Duke said coldly: "Duke Pan must be undergoing the second spontaneous transformation of [I, Shuoyuan], so it is not surprising that he has forgotten some things."

The young man in white robe suddenly looked at him... At the same time, these words also attracted Tianmo Luo's attention.

Unlike Prince Cicero, who seemed to have only left behind a partial [legacy]... This Crimson Duke was considered the third batch of [living] Imperial people he had met.

Able to talk...easy to talk? of imperial people.

The first group were naturally the photos of the prince and the prince's students that they met in the [Peng Lai Treasure House].

The second group is the princess and her entourage who met during the trip to the Kingdom of Heaven - but due to the power of the royal family, Boss Luo seems unable to coexist with the eldest princess for a long time.

"Regarding the topic of [I, Shuoyuan], it is not convenient for me to talk to you, Grand Duke Pan, because I am afraid that it will affect your [future]... Perhaps, one day in the future, Grand Duke Pan, you will express your anger at me. . After all, the artifact in your hand is really scary." The Scarlet Duke chuckled: "Let me explain the mechanism of this arena."

"I don't like you." The boy in white robe said calmly.

"It's my honor that you don't hate me." The Scarlet Duke smiled casually, "Yes, the one that was resurrected just now is, to be precise, just a copy. But what it copies is all the memory and power of the original body. There is no difference, not even the replica itself will notice it."

The young man in white robe said calmly: "There is a difference, the clone has no potential."

The Scarlet Duke also said calmly: "He will not feel that he has no potential, he will only slowly find that he has reached his limit, that's all."

"Fake soul?" Tianmo Luo said abruptly.

The Scarlet Duke suddenly said sternly: "Your Highness, the word [false soul] should not appear in your mouth... This is the root demon's contemptuous name for life."

The root...the devil?

——What is the empire’s attitude towards [The Root]?

Tian Mo Luo said thoughtfully, but remained calm, "What should it be called?"

"They are also living beings, with thoughts and emotions. They are complete and independent individuals. There should be no so-called true and false distinctions." The Scarlet Duke said slowly, "But after copying once, their potential is indeed limited and they are They have flaws in some aspects, so we generally call them [the people of the past]."

Tianmoluo thought for a moment and said, "What are the old days?"

Crimson Grand Justice said: "The foundation stone of the future laid by all the past is the past."

"Be specific." Tian Moluo said directly.

"It's an attempt, it's a possibility, it's a practice." The Scarlet Duke said slowly with a patient look on his face: "Every citizen of the empire can test the future by creating one or more of his own [people of the past]. .”

The white-haired girl seemed to be listening very hard at this time, but she suddenly felt sleepy while listening, so she lay down and fell asleep... However, Tian Moluo seemed to be interested after encountering another new theory.

"A test of the future?" He pondered: "Let [the people of the past] experience the [future] first?"

"Absolutely." The Scarlet Duke nodded, "But it can be more specific. By choosing to use a fixed script or a random script, put the [Old People] in... [The Old People] will be in the selected [future] 】 Various possibilities evolve until natural death."

"Then what?" The boy in white robe was also aroused by curiosity, "Then the main body can do it again by mastering the future direction, thus avoiding all bad things?"

"You can say that." The Scarlet Duke nodded.

"This is impossible even if you think about it. If every so-called ontology can be exempted from bad things in this way, then once the future of two people intersects, how will it be... can it be regarded as the one who is more capable? Then Has the other side's so-called [immunity] failed?" The white-robed young man shook his head and said: "No, everyone's fate will inevitably intersect in a big fate line."

"Of course, citizens of the empire only have the right to invest, not the right to choose." The Scarlet Duke smiled and said: "The selection of scripts I mentioned can only be made by the direct royal family... and changes can only be made by the already existing ones. Change some choices, after all, if you want to overturn the original choice and start from scratch, the cost will be quite high."

"Why?" The young man in white robe frowned, as if he was touched by these words. There was a faint light on his face, but it soon calmed down.

"Your Highness understands." The Scarlet Duke smiled mysteriously.

The boy in white robe subconsciously looked at Tianmo Luo, vaguely feeling that he would say something.

"Royal power." Tianmoluo breathed out slowly, "The power to control destiny."

A look of fanaticism appeared on the face of the Scarlet Duke, "This is the power of the great eternal royal family...the helmsman of destiny!"

"Hmph." The young man in white robe said coldly: "I see, the so-called empire is just a toy in the hands of one or a few people, and the so-called citizens are not puppets in the hands of fate."

"Grand Duke Pan, it seems that even in the [I am Shuoyuan] stage, your [advice] is still the same as before." Scarlet Grand Duke suddenly narrowed his eyes, "Be careful of the sanctions of the Tribunal."

"What is that?" The young man in white robe looked coldly.

"You're just kidding." The Scarlet Duke said with a smile: "After all, the Tribunal is gone long ago... As His Highness said, the empire is gone too. Only old antiques like me, the ghosts of the country's subjugation, will always think about it. That’s all.”

"How did the empire perish?" Tianmo Luo looked directly at the Crimson Duke, with no emotion in his eyes.

"If, what I said is if." The Scarlet Justice said seductively: "If His Highness has already met the Grand Princess and she has not told you, then I cannot tell you... If Your Highness has not met the Grand Princess yet If so, Linyuan will be even more unable to say anything."

"Why."

"This is the order of the eldest princess." Crimson Grand Duke said quietly: "You are not allowed to mention any secrets about the demise of the empire to His Highness... Of course, if Your Highness uses other abilities to make me violate my oath to the eldest princess, then Linyuan will only You are willing to be unlucky. If the eldest princess wants to be beaten, scolded or beheaded, Linyuan has no choice but to obey."

Poor.

Here he doesn't have the appearance of the crimson Duke who shocked the crowd when he appeared on the stage. He is clearly the style of an officialdom veteran.

"Yeah." Tianmoluo nodded, "Then you say it."

"?" The Scarlet Duke subconsciously raised his head.

"Why, are you just talking casually?" Tian Moluo smiled half-heartedly.

"Long time no see, Your Highness is also a bad learner." The Scarlet Duke smiled bitterly and sighed: "... Anyway, since the arena has reappeared in this small world, I guess it is an arrangement of fate. But Your Highness, I have something to say. , can you wait until this challenge is over?”

The young man in white robe stood up directly, "Then I'll go."

He could tell that Linyuan didn't intend to say too much in front of him.

As for the challenge in the arena below, in his opinion... Well, using the newly learned vocabulary from the Lord God World game is [rookies pecking each other], it is better to go back and escort... There are still more than ninety escorts left!

"Pan Grand Duke, it's a good journey." Scarlet Grand Duke said sideways to see him off, leaving nothing behind.

The boy in white robe sat down again, "I don't want to leave."

Big eyes stare at small eyes.

On the throne, Tian Moluo looked at the white-robed boy and the crimson grand duke... The grand duke was considered to be at the top of the empire, right?

——What kind of people were the power groups of the Eternal Empire back then...

…

…

After rubbing his brows for a while, Tian Moluo casually took a look at the situation in the arena. His eyes suddenly fell on the twelve statues of ancestral witches, and he asked curiously: "Do you have only one arena? "

He didn't intend to push too hard an Imperial man whom he finally met... and he was also an Imperial Duke who bowed his eyebrows respectfully when he saw you.

Tianmo Luo...Boss Luo has always been kind to others.

"This is a projection exclusive to the small world of [Canglan]." Linyuan pointed to the statues of ancestral witches, "These twelve statues represent the twelve winners who have completed high-level challenges, so they can Qualifications for erecting statues.”

"Oh?" Tian Moluo thought for a while and said, "Didn't they participate at the same time? But I heard that these twelve ancestral witches were originally transformed from the fruits of the same tree. Why did they come to you? Became the winner again?”

The Crimson Duke explained a little bit.

The arena can be projected into different small worlds, and even different small worlds have different triggering methods. However, in order not to affect the development process of the small world, it will erase the traces of the challenge afterward and change the memory of the saint.

"The winner has two choices. The first is to return to the original place after getting the prize, but he needs to accept the arrangement. The other choice is to leave." Linyuan looked at the long-browed old man who controlled the arena barrier at this time. "For example, he did not choose to return back then, but stayed. I made him one of the guards of the arena, responsible for handling all challenges triggered in [Blue]."

"As for the so-called Twelve Ancestral Witches, it makes no difference to me whether they have great divine power because they ate the fruit of the victory prize, or whether they evolved from the fruit themselves."

Tianmoluo breathed out slowly. He was familiar with the matter of rewriting history, and he did not have much resistance to the operation of the arena. These great nobles of the empire seemed to be following an invisible rule, that is, they could not easily Affects the operation of the entire Alaya system.

But they definitely have some privileges and can make magical changes to [history].

"Can this arena appear in many small worlds?"

"Theoretically, it can be projected into every small world." Linyuan chuckled: "Challengers will be selected in different forms. The ultimate challenge will directly scan all the beings with great potential in an area for challenge casting. This The number of times is relatively small, after all, the area that can be scanned here seems to have been separated... Under normal circumstances, the ultimate challenge will directly scan an entire small world."

Scan an entire small world of sentient beings...

Tianmo Luo...Boss Luo said coldly: "Where is the world No. 003? Have you ever projected it in the arena?"

"Your Highness is joking." Linyuan smiled bitterly and said: "In a golden world like No. 003, where the legacy of the prince exists, how dare I offend him."

"Golden world?" Boss Luo pondered: "Is this your way of dividing the sub-world?"

"That's right." Linyuan nodded: "Usually only those with a completion rate of more than 95% can be called a golden world. Those with a completion rate between 80% and 95% are silver worlds, and [Canglan] belongs to silver. World, if I remember correctly, its completion rate should be... Oh, it seems that the administrator of [Canglan] has some problems. Normally, the administrator of [Canglan] should appear at this time. Yes. Just now, I seemed to have seen a guy with partial sub-admin rights..."

"I'm investigating this." Boss Luo said calmly, "You don't have to worry about it."

"Since His Highness is personally investigating, Linyuan cannot overstep his bounds." The Scarlet Duke nodded, "As for No. 003, which Your Highness just mentioned?"

"You are not allowed to go." Boss Luo said expressionlessly.

"Linyuan understands." The Scarlet Duke suddenly became solemn - His Highness at this time made him feel timid... Could it be that there is something important to His Highness in the world of No. 003?

——Would you like to be smart and click on it to have a look... just look at it, nothing will move. Just be careful and you won't be discovered, right?

"Forget about No. 003." Boss Luo said again abruptly.

The Scarlet Duke was stunned, but felt that his memory was disappearing little by little. He was suddenly startled, and immediately bent down deeply, "Linyuan... understand."

He returned to Tian Mo Luo's appearance again, with an evil look on his face... Suddenly two Ancestral Spirit Hall Tokens popped out of Tian Mo Luo's hand - they should have become the Arena Spirit Tokens at this time.

"Since the Twelve Ancestral Witches were only the winners of the high-level competition, why did this token that can open the ultimate challenge spread?"

"Your Highness." The Scarlet Duke said coldly: "These landmarks were not left by me in [Canglan]."

"Not in [Cang Lan]?" Tianmo Luo was slightly surprised.

"That's right." Linyuan nodded, "In fact, if these beacons hadn't triggered the ultimate challenge in the arena, I wouldn't even be here. The Silver World can only trigger high-level and below-level challenges at most. Generally, The regional arena guards are all in charge, for example [Canglan] and Baimei are in charge.”

"It's not a beacon belonging to [Canglan]..." Tianmo Luo pondered for a moment, "Where did you originally place these beacons?"

"Your Highness, can you let Linyuan take a closer look?"

A token appeared directly in front of the Scarlet Duke - his way of taking a closer look was very unique - he bit it with his teeth.

"Oh, so it smells like this." The Scarlet Duke thought thoughtfully, "If I remember correctly, I should have placed these landmarks in a world called [Nadia] in the Science and Technology Code."

"[Nadia]?"

"A small world that has great potential and is about to be promoted to gold. Because it has the potential to be promoted to gold, I put these tokens in advance." The Scarlet Duke smiled slightly: "It is a group of people who call themselves [Atlantis Protoss] ] guy’s territory.”

"Why did the token of the law of science and technology appear in [Canglan], a small world that belongs to the mythical side?" Tian Moluo stared at the Scarlet Duke expressionlessly, as if to see how much of his words were true, and how much. The words are false.

The Scarlet Duke muttered: "Well...if there is no accident, there should be an accident."

The boy in white robe simply rolled his eyes after hearing this. This guy has completely grasped the essence of official nonsense literature.

Tianmoluo will think of more.

The token was obtained from Niu Daguang, but Linyuan claimed that it belonged to the small world of [Nadia] - a high-potential quasi-golden world on the technological side.

[Pingtian] Is there something fishy about the group’s weird way of combining technology with immortality?

Tian Moluo looked at the arena at this moment... He saw Dr. Li Jianyi.

At this time, the Scarlet Duke suddenly said: "Your Highness, the ultimate challenge has begun. Do you allow Linyuan to open the viewing rights for this challenge?"

Tianmo Luo remained silent. The Ancestral Spirit Hall itself is a circular design. In addition to the twelve statues of the winner, there are actually circles of seats. You don't need to think about how many seats this place can accommodate when it is full. of spectators.

This was the empire's former arena, serving the royal family - of course it could absorb the empire's nobles. After all, according to Linyuan, the arena needs to pay taxes and also needs to make a profit, but the problem is...

"Why, are there many surviving nobles in the empire?"

The Scarlet Duke smiled bitterly and said: "It's just some nostalgic practices of Linyuan. I don't want this arena that has been built with a lifetime of hard work to end in a deserted and deserted ending. Therefore... the audience today is in the void. Those so-called strong men.”

"In the void..." Tian Moluo's heart moved, and he said calmly: "Then let's book a room."

"Thank you, Your Highness." The Scarlet Duke smiled slightly.

Suddenly, from the spectator seats of the circular arena, beams of light were dropped... They seemed to have a fixed landing position for a long time. In the beams of light, there were all kinds of different people...or, maybe, lives.

Waves of extremely powerful aura, like strong winds, swept across the entire arena.

They were sizing up the Blood Sea Demon Clan, the Houtu tribe of Witch Clan, and the human race within the barrier like gods.

"Ultimate Gladiator, there hasn't been such an interesting event for a long time... Crimson King, you should hold more events like this, otherwise the days of walking in the void will be too boring!"

A rough voice sounded, as if he was familiar with this arena.

Tianmoluo followed the voice and looked over, discovering that the speaker was actually a two-horned evil spirit with a traditional demonic posture, and his body was burning with hell fire.

"It can't see here." Tianmo Luo Danran said.

"This is General Patton, who comes from a world dominated by demons." The Scarlet Duke smiled and said: "These guys, who can only be regarded as quasi-empire citizens at best, are naturally not qualified to meet His Highness."

"You, the Crimson King?"

"It's just a small disguise." The Scarlet Duke said, "In order to prevent these guys from thinking too much about it."

Demon Luo Danran said: "But you announced your information to all challengers."

The Scarlet Duke said calmly: "It doesn't matter, there is only one winner of the ultimate challenge anyway...and, didn't I wait until I started the challenge before I started watching?"

Despite this, at this time, there are at least hundreds of spirits similar to divine thoughts scanning the position of the throne stand - obviously, in past events, there will rarely be such situations where the Crimson King is not dedicated, right?

"Everyone, real-time betting is now open..." The Scarlet Duke walked out of the stands at this time and appeared in front of the many void spectators. "Please enjoy it. This challenge... the qualifications are all prepared for you." alright."

I saw a small light screen appearing in front of each figure in the audience stand...

…

…

"What is that...a spectator?"

"I...I even felt the trembling in my soul!"

However, there was silence in the entire arena. Even the two sides who were fighting life and death couldn't help but stop and look at the lights and shadows that were constantly emerging around them.

"Who are these people, what kind of people!

"

The Demon King of Blood Sea [Shiva] felt unprecedented panic - because every breath here was actually more powerful than the former Blood Ancestor Styx... And it wasn't just one, but all over the place!

…

"Even the weakest ones are almost the same as me. How is it possible..."

The garbled lights and shadows were dumbfounded at this moment, and it felt like a disabled veteran setting up an Italian cannon against an opponent's 10,000-strong army alone...

…

In the corner of the arena, looking at the strong figures from all directions, Miss Nan was the calmest one.

She breathed out slowly and murmured to herself: "Let me tell you, why are you so familiar... The Crimson King, the Crimson King, indeed, this arena is... [The Void Battlefield]!"

The ones on the stands right now, even when her body is walking in the void, would seem troublesome when seen from a distance...even scary!

"……Oops?"

——If I use time to recall the peak ability of my former body, will it happen...

——Meet an enemy? ?

Just kidding, as a lone traveler without dozens of enemies, she was embarrassed to go out and say hello to people...

Miss Nan swallowed subconsciously at this time, but she secretly called herself and encouraged herself: "Nan, don't be afraid, you are the best... you have to stand up!"

She continued to hide in the shadow of a corpse.
