What Li Yao paid most attention to were naturally the ten or so mutated Red Blood Bronze Bulls. After drinking a bucket full of strengthening drugs, their bones were cracking, and their bodies were expanding. The horns on their heads were protruding, too. Thick and strong bone spurs were protruding out of their elbows and knees. Even at the center of their foreheads, black, shiny lumps were protruding like heavy battering rams.
It was not hard to imagine that, with such lethal weapons, they would be even more destructive when they sprinted at full speed.
Scorching steam lingered around his body. His swollen muscles were almost unable to be wrapped by his taut skin. Explosive power surged through his veins like the roar of thunder, surging like waves.
The bull-horned muscular demons were overjoyed to see the changes in their bodies.
The other demons were experiencing changes, too. The half-human, half-snake muscular demon who had been on the same flying bat ray as Li Yao had a wider and larger mandible on his right arm. Small blades that looked like sawteeth were growing on his arm that were vaguely emitting a metallic luster. When he waved his arm, he almost broke the speed of sound.
The demons' craving for strength was almost instinctive. Sensing that their potential was erupting like a volcano, the demons completely forgot the danger around them and could not wait to warm up their brand-new bodies.
However, a moment later, many demons felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
A few workers waved their hands. Immediately, a large group of servants served fragrant meat to them.
"You have just taken the strengthening drugs that cleansed your veins and remolded your bones. Although your body is stronger than before, it has consumed too much energy. You need to replenish your energy immediately. Let go of your appetite and eat as much as you can!"
The worker said coldly. "This is after your potential is activated. The first meal is to lay the foundation for the next step of body strengthening. You must eat as much as possible!
"If you can't eat anymore, you can eat more. You can eat more of the 'Salo Fruits' nearby to help with digestion! "
The low-level demons … In their hometown, they did not have enough food to fill their stomachs, too. The journey was bumpy. In order to prevent them from rioting, they had not been given much food. They were already dizzy from hunger. Now that they smelled the fragrance of meat and heard the worker's words, they could not hold back anymore. A few impatient demons simply lunged forward and gnawed at the meat.
Li Yao did not hesitate at all, either. Ever since he came to the Blood Demon Sector, he had never had a full meal. His body had been modified by the mental devil, which had left him in a huge deficit. He had long felt that he could not make ends meet.
The food on Skull Island was crudely prepared. However, they were all demon beast meat that contained a lot of energy. Li Yao didn't care about the taste as he activated the Whale Swallowing Technique. He swallowed everything in one go. His mouth was like a bottomless pit. The braised whale that was more than two meters long turned into a skeleton in just a few bites. After that, he even casually chewed and swallowed the bones.
It didn't matter if he didn't eat it, but once he did, his taste buds were opened, and his appetite soared. Li Yao's eyes were shining. Deep in his throat, he emitted a "Gulu Gulu" sound, as if he was a ferocious beast. He wandered among the food as if there was no one else around.
The other demons looked at him as if he were the reincarnation of a hungry ghost. Many demons stayed further away from him without saying anything, fearing that he might swallow all of them as food if he was too engrossed in the food.
Not far away, the dozen or so bull-horned muscular men were still enjoying the food. When they raised their head and saw the empty wooden plate in front of Li Yao, they grinned in appreciation as if they were a 'kindred spirit'.
The meal lasted more than an hour. There was no telling how much food they had eaten. All in all, the bones around them were piled up like a hill.
The worker put on a smile, too, as he said, "Have you seen the benefits of joining the Skeleton Island and becoming a gladiator? In the future, there will be strengthening drugs that are more violent and more abundant food for you to enjoy. You will be transformed from ignorant animals into real experts!
"However, whether or not you are qualified to enjoy the benefits will depend on your performance tomorrow!
"Tomorrow will be your first battle. Whether you live or die will be up to you!
"Next, a batch of information balls will be provided to you. Inside every information ball is the battle experience of the experts. The time limit is only one night. For the sake of your life, I hope that you can get more battle experience. Haha. Hahahaha!"
Several workers carried over more than ten vats that were filled with bright green liquids, in which countless objects that looked like pine cones and cocoons were soaking.
Li Yao knew that they were the information balls produced by the demon race through biochemical technology. They were essentially biochemical brains that only had the functions of memory and release. Similar to the jade chips of human beings, they could store tremendous information.
Also, the information balls could be directly connected to the nerves of the brain and instill the information in a comprehensive way. The efficiency of transmission was much higher than that of jade chips.
Dense words had been carved on the surface of the vats. The workers introduced them to the illiterate gladiators, too. The vats were all classified according to the emphasis of speed, strength, and other aspects.
For the brawn-type gladiators such as the bull-horned muscular men, they naturally had to choose the battle experience that emphasized strength.
For the snake-blade men, they had to choose the battle experience that emphasized agility and speed.
The ignorant gladiators knew that the battle tomorrow would be extremely gory, too. If they could absorb more battle experience right now, they would have a better chance of survival tomorrow. Nobody was willing to waste any time. Therefore, they chose the vats that were most suitable for them and took out the information balls from them. Then, they walked to one side and focused on their own training.
Li Yao's main weapon right now was the sharp claw on his left arm. He also chose an information ball that emphasized claw attacks. Sitting cross-legged in an empty corner, he stuck the information ball to his forehead.
He pinched the two soft muscles on the left and right sides of the information ball and squeezed them slightly. A few tiny tentacles immediately extended out of the information ball and stuck to his forehead like the antennae of a snail.
Streams of information flowed into his brain, forming a blurry illusion.
His soul seemed to have been absorbed into a brand-new world inside the information ball.
It was a barbaric battlefield in the middle of a desert. He seemed to have turned into a vigorous wolf demon who was fighting a tiger demon fiercely.
The two front claws of the wolf demon were particularly thick. The claws were like three glittering scimitars, which were even emitting three vague auras that extended to more than one meter away, uttering sharp noises of wind breaking.
Other than that, there was nothing interesting about the battle. The wolf demon and the tiger demon were both in the demon general level. Their battle was naturally full of loopholes in Li Yao's eyes.
Li Yao, on the other hand, was quite interested in the battle.
As the saying goes, one is bound to learn from another. Li Yao did not know much about the battle techniques of the demon race. The mediocre demons were only performing the most basic moves, which were perfect for him to study.
Li Yao had never neglected the importance of the basics. A straight line was the shortest distance between two points. The essence of a battle was to blow the greatest force into the enemy's body through the shortest distance in the shortest amount of time. It was a philosophy that Li Yao had been insisting on all the time. That was why he preferred drill weapons instead of fancy moves.
The battle between the wolf demon and the tiger demon was a perfect opportunity for him to study the most basic battle techniques of the lion-type demon beasts.
For a moment, Li Yao's computational ability soared nonstop. The wolf demon and the tiger demon seemed to have turned into pure numbers. By analyzing the speed and the angle of their attacks, Li Yao corrected their moves and filled in the loopholes of their attacks. He had picked up the essence of their battle, too, and gained a lot of experience in the process!
Half an hour later, Li Yao took off the information bug and smiled in satisfaction.
The marrow crystals of the wolf demon and the tiger demon had been completely absorbed by him. Right now, he was able to perform the exact same moves of the two demons, if not even more aggressive, violent, and flawless than theirs!
Li Yao threw the information bug back and replaced it with a second one, continuing his study.
At this moment, the other demons were still groping and struggling in the world of the first information bug.
The battle experience stored in the information bugs was like a trickle for Li Yao that he could absorb in a moment. But for them, it was a vast ocean. It might take them several hours to grasp one of the information bugs.
Time flew fast during his training. Before he knew it, it was already late at night. The staff had provided a lot of food for the new gladiators that they could eat at any time. There was even a spacious training room nearby where they could practice the battle experience that they had just grasped.
Li Yao absorbed the battle experience in the thirty or so information bugs greedily. Other than grasping a lot of fundamental moves of the demon race, he made an interesting discovery, too.
Odd. All the battle experiences are about demons fighting each other. Some of them are even about bronze-blood demons fighting silver-blood demons!
Come to think of it, it is quite odd. In the Tian Yuan Realm, human beings train themselves through 'virtual battles', too. But the opponents in the virtual battles are always demon beasts and demons. It is unlikely that they are fighting their own kind all the time, isn't it?
On the other hand, the greatest enemy of the Blood Demon Sector is the Tian Yuan Realm. Then, when the Blood Demon Sector trains itself through virtual battles, some human beings should be on the enemy's side more or less, too.
However, if the 'Skeleton Island' is a secret training camp of the Blade of Chaos in the first place, everything will make sense.
The low-level demons such as the chaotic-blood demons and the black-blood demons, after ten thousand years of brainwashing, must be awed by the high-level demons such as the silver-blood demons. Even if they burst into fury, they might not have the courage to attack the silver-blood demons.
But right now, through the information bugs, they have discovered that the silver-blood demons are made of flesh and blood, just like them. They will bleed and scream when they are wounded. Some of them will even die miserably when their guts are pierced through!
They will even try to 'kill' a silver-blood demon with their own hands from the first-person perspective!
Such a shock will immediately shatter their awe for the silver-blood demons and the bronze-blood demons!
