The effect of the closed fighting beasts was more intense than Shao Xuan expected.
One was that Shao Xuan underestimated the ability of the "Sapphire", and the other was the weather.
When the moon was full, it was the time when the beasts were most prone to riot.
However, the slave owners liked to see the furious beasts fighting each other. For them, only in such a situation, the battle was fierce enough and good enough to watch.
He just didn't know, after experiencing the collective riot of the fighting beasts, when they went to the Beast City again, would there be a psychological shadow?
Shao Xuan stood on the high sand ridge, looking at the distant Luoye City station, and the Beast City further away.
This night, Lei and Tuo had a rare good sleep. During the time of being caught, they had been on guard, nervous, and always on guard. Until now, with Shao Xuan and Chacha, they were finally relaxed. Sleeping well could restore them quickly.
After midnight, Shao Xuan saw a bird flying into Luoye City. Not long after, a small group of people rushed to Luoye City. Looking at their almost silent but fast running, Shao Xuan guessed that these people were sent by the Luoye City king to investigate the news.
Something must have happened to make these people rush back in such a hurry.
The next day, Shao Xuan went to find Su Gu alone. He did not take Lei and Tuo with him, letting them find a place to rest and recuperate. He first determined whether there was someone chasing the three of them. In particular, Dao Yu. Shao Xuan showed his hand in the Colosseum. Even if other people did not care, Dao Yu would certainly have an idea.
In such a time when there might be a more intense storm, it was always good to be careful.
However, what Shao Xuan did not expect was that he learned a surprising news from Su Gu.
"The Baishi king is dead?!"
"Well, someone came to report last night. Father asked me not to leave the station, and would leave here as soon as possible." Su Gu was a little tired. At first, he was curious as to how Shao Xuan was able to create the enslavement fire. However, under such circumstances, a tribesman was relatively unimportant. What's more, Su Gu now needed Shao Xuan's help. Naturally, it was impossible to push him too hard.
Shao Xuan pondered over Su Gu's words.
The Baishi City Lord, the king of that city, was actually killed? Yesterday, he was still angry in the Beast Fighting Arena. How did he get slaughtered when he returned?
"Do you know who killed him?" Shao Xuan asked.
Su Gu shook his head. "I don't know."
"How about Dao Yu?" Shao Xuan asked again.
"I don't know, but I heard that one of the Baishi King's three close guards died." After a pause, Su Gu added, "It seems that the one who died was not Dao Yu."
After the riot in the Beast Fighting Arena, another city lord was killed. This time, the Beast Fighting Arena was doomed to not continue.
At first, when he heard the news, the Snowfield King was still clamoring to investigate why the fighting beasts rioted and how the city lord was killed. However, in the afternoon, there was news that the Snowfield King had left with his people.
In the original words of the Snowfield King, "I have an urgent matter. Whoever wants to care about it, I don't care anyway!"
"What happened in the end that could make the Snowfield King so anxious?" Shao Xuan wondered.
"I heard that the Snowfield City side seems to have lost a very important thing." Su Gu said.
"A very important thing?" Shao Xuan asked.
"I don't know what it is. I'm still inquiring. However, it is said that it may be related to your tribe. "Su Gu said.
Shao Xuan's eyelids twitched. What were the hidden purposes of the other tribes? His previous guess was that they were looking for metal ores. Could it be that they had succeeded?
The people of the Feather tribe and the Tianshan tribe who came back with them that day had already left overnight yesterday. They did not say hello to the people of Luoye City. Even if he wanted to ask, he could not find anyone.
"If it's really related to your tribe, then you have to avoid it early. Our Luoye City has taken in a lot of tribes." Su Gu said.
Things were the same as what Su Gu said. In the afternoon, near dusk, the Luoye City king gathered his people and left with everyone. There was no one left in the station.
Originally, Shao Xuan wanted to let Chacha leave with Lei and Tuo first, but Su Gu took the initiative to let Lei and Tuo go with them. In the two days before and after the full moon, the desert was very dangerous, so it was better to be careful.
Shao Xuan thought about it and agreed.
On the day they left the Beast Fighting Desert, the Luoye City king saw the three of them and did not say a word.
As for Baishi City, after their king was killed, the young masters of Baishi City and the small slave owners left with their slaves. It was too dangerous here, so it was better to go back to the city first and then fight for the throne.
Not only Baishi City and Luoye City, but people from several other cities also left one after another. They seemed to be aware of the coming storm and left in a hurry.
The people of several cities left, leaving only the original guards of Beast City. The guards of the three cities were already on guard against each other.
A Snowfield City guard left here went out to release water at night. The desert at night was bright because of the moon in the sky.
The guard went to a Beast Fighting Pit. There were a lot of beast corpses piled up in the pit. Most of them were the losers of the Beast Fighting War in the past two days. If it was in the past, these corpses would have been given to the slaves to eat. But now, they had all withdrawn, leaving too many corpses behind. They were all thrown in a Beast Fighting Pit. After another ten days, only the bones would be left. There were scavenger birds and other insects around, which would digest these corpses.
Yawning, the guard looked around. Except for his own companions not far away, he did not find other people from other cities. This made him feel relieved and he planned to urinate.
Just as he was about to urinate, he suddenly heard some fine sounds. He quickly looked around and found no other abnormalities. Then he listened carefully. Those sounds were coming from under the Beast Fighting Pit.
Could it be that there were still beasts in the pit that had not died?
Thinking of the riot in the Beast Fighting Pit, the guard swallowed his saliva. He held the handle of his knife and stretched his neck to look inside. Then, he saw some black beetles coming out from under the Beast Fighting Pit. One by one, they quickly wrapped up the corpses of the beasts piled up at the top.
If that was all, the guard found that the corpses of the beasts in the pit were quickly "thinning". The originally strong muscles became dry at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even if he had seen the scavengers in the desert quickly eliminate the corpses, it was also caused by the joint action of many birds and other animals of all sizes. But now, in this pit, there was only one kind of beetle. They were frantically gnawing, and the black armor on their backs reflected the cold white light of the moon.
He had guarded the Beast Fighting Pit for so many years and had never seen such a scene. According to the previous years, such a large number of beast corpses would take about ten days. But looking at the current situation, it would take less than ten days. There was no need to wait for the sun to come out tomorrow. These beast corpses would be eliminated and only hard bones and thick scales would be left.
The guard standing outside the pit had cold sweat on his back. He felt that his scalp was frozen. He shouted and ran to his companions to talk about what was happening in the Beast Fighting Pit.
"Insects? You mean those little beetles? It can't be, right? "Some people doubted.
"It's true, it's true! If you don't believe me, go and see! "
The other guards were puzzled and planned to team up to see. They were really frightened by recent events. One or two of them did not dare to run around.
However, when they went to see in a group, there were no more black beetles in the pit. Not a single one could be seen. However, the corpses of the beasts had obvious signs of being gnawed and shriveled.
"How … how come they're gone? They were just here! "The guard walked around the pit, looking for them but did not find any.
Under the sand, a group of beetles that had just gnawed on the corpses of the beasts had left, following a big blue beetle and leaving the Beast Fighting Pit.
The next day, when the sun rose, only a few seemingly harmless beetles were left in the Beast Fighting Pit. Most of them had disappeared.
