"To the audience watching the Battle of the Champions! After seven long days of fighting, the most powerful gladiators are finally standing here! "
Tonight's Super Colosseum was full of people. Gao Tianzun's huge projection was scattered in the air. It could be seen that he was in a very good mood. He pointed his finger at the 16 gladiators standing in the center of the Colosseum and shouted,
"My former champions didn't disappoint me. In the cruelest battle, they once again proved their strength. Thor, Nova, Two-Headed Beast, Humanoid, and Jonathan the Tyrannosaurus, we haven't seen them for a long time. Look at them, they're no different from when they left this place! They didn't give up on sharpening their combat strength. They didn't let you down!! "
Every time Gao Tianzun said a name, the audience below the stage would burst into cheers. These were all former champions, and as everyone knew, every champion had their own fans.
When the audience's cheers reached the peak, Gao Tianzun pointed his finger to the other side.
"I also have to say that this year's challengers aren't simple either. In the past champions' confrontation, they used crazy slaughter and battle to prove themselves. They proved that they also have the ability to wear the crown and become the noblest and most powerful person on Planet Saka!"
"The Destroyer, the Barber, and our biggest dark horse, Thunderman! I have to say, there has never been a gladiator fight that I look forward to so much. In short, the audience of Saka, cheer. I am honored to announce the start of the second stage of the Battle of the Champions! "
"Tonight! Knockout round! Start!! "
"Ow ow ow!!"
The cheers of the 300,000 people in the entire arena, plus the Saka people who were watching the live broadcast in other places, broke through the clouds at this moment. The knockout round was definitely something that everyone liked to watch, because in the second stage of the competition, both gladiators couldn't admit defeat. Once the battle started, they would either die or be knocked out completely. Otherwise, the battle wouldn't end. There were no restrictions in the knockout round. You could use any method to destroy your opponent.
Under such wild rules, every gladiator fight was a life and death battle. Any mistake would cost the life of a gladiator. There was nothing more exciting than such a competition.
But in addition to the bloody battle, there was another thing that everyone was looking forward to.
"As everyone knows, the gladiators who enter the knockout round will receive a sacred right!"
Gao Tianzun's voice sounded again. His huge projection looked at the gladiators in front of him. He said in a deep voice, "Every gladiator has the right to make a request to the defending champion. The defending champion cannot refuse. Then … let us welcome this year's defending champion, the powerful King of Battle, Overlord, to the stage!"
"Bang bang bang bang!"
All kinds of fireworks suddenly rushed into the sky and exploded in the darkness. In the center of the huge arena, a crack opened in the ground. On the slowly rising floating disc, Saber stood there with a war scythe in his hand. His figure didn't look strong compared to the gladiators in front of him, but the moment he appeared, the entire city of Saka began to boil.
The scene of the Overlord smashing the ancestral jump beast with one punch was still being played repeatedly in various cities. It made everyone understand the Overlord's unparalleled destructive power. Saka was no doubt a place where power was highly respected. Even though Saber didn't say much and only fought in one gladiator fight, he still won a huge number of fans.
The moment Seiber appeared, a commotion broke out among the 16 Gladiators. Richard, the new star, glared at the figure in front of him and clenched his teeth in hatred. Horse-faced Thor subconsciously reached out his hand to grab his war hammer that he rarely used. The tall two-headed beast with two heads took a step back, and the Destroyer slammed his fist on Seiber's chest. Beside him, the Thunderman with short blond hair and his fists surrounded by tiny lightning bolts took a step forward impulsively.
But unfortunately, someone was faster than him.
"Bang!"
When the largest gladiator among the 16 gladiators took a step forward, the ground of the entire Gladiator Arena let out a muffled bang. This action was like igniting a barrel of gunpowder, causing the atmosphere in the Gladiator Arena to become crazy again.
"Humanoid! Humanoid! "
The audience shouted the name of this monster. They waved their fists and cheered for it with their voices. It was the first to stand up, which meant that it wanted to challenge the defending champion. This was the tradition of Saka.
Saber's gaze also fell on the challenger in front of him. This was a green monster. Just like Groot, its whole body was composed of rattan-like plants. But compared to Groot's dry body, this guy looked like it had just climbed out of a quagmire. Its whole body was wet, just like the dark plants in the swamp.
Its huge body was at least 5 meters tall. Like its name, it had a humanoid body. Its limbs were wrapped in dark green gas. These gases were like a curtain, wrapping around its body tightly. Its face was even more difficult to describe. It was like a mosaic composed entirely of twisted rattan. Three thick tentacles swayed under its cheeks. In the center of its blurred cheeks were two eyes shining with scarlet light.
Undisguised malice flashed in its eyes. It was an instinctive disgust towards life.
"Humanoid, swamp monster, grotesque appearance, a monster born on an ocean planet on the edge of the North Area. In the 100 years after its birth, it massacred all the life on the planet, then tore open space itself and wandered around the universe, wanted by many civilizations. It cannot be killed by conventional methods. It has a strong hatred for all life, and it seems to be able to manipulate some kind of special flame. In the gladiator tournament it participated in, all the gladiators who had fought against it were strangled by it, and even their corpses were swallowed."
"This is a real monster. Don't pray that it has sympathy!"
This guy's information flashed in Saber's mind. Although he didn't think that this monster would cause him any trouble, what was the saying? Even a lion has to use its full strength to catch a rabbit.
"Eat … you! Will … be … stronger! "
An intermittent and vague voice came out of the monster's mouth. The moment it stood up, the other 15 gladiators were projected to the safe zone by Gao Tianzun's spaceship, leaving only Saber and the humanoid in the arena.
"The sacred battle begins now!!"
Accompanied by Gao Tianzun's shout, his projection turned into a gorgeous light curtain and disappeared. At the same time, a thick fog escaped from the humanoid's body and quickly shrouded the entire arena. It was a vast expanse of whiteness, and visibility was reduced to the lowest.
The audience also held their breaths. Their vision was not obscured by the fog. Above the arena, a special projection opened, and only the audience could see it. The humanoid's frightening body was marked in red, and Saber's was marked in black.
The audience could clearly see that in the corrosive mist, the gigantic humanoid figure was moving back and forth in the mist like a phantom. It silently approached Seiber, who was still standing in the same spot. However, Seiber did not move at all, as if he was confused by the terrible environment.
"It's corrosive?"
Saber stretched out his left hand, and the armor made of venom jumped in his palm, sending some kind of message to Saber.
"Don't be afraid, I can see it!"
Blue electric arcs jumped on the blade of the battle scythe in his hand. Saber flipped his wrist, and the electric arcs tore through the fog that was getting thicker and thicker. In his eyes, the blue flames of the Ring of Ashes lit up at this moment, and the Eyes of Repentance penetrated the fog, revealing everything in front of him.
But the moment he saw through the fog, the space behind him was silently torn apart, and two giant rattan claws jumped out of the black space crack, one from the left and one from the right, sweeping toward Saber's body with unimaginable force.
"Ahhh!"
Some timid audience screamed, as if Saber's body would be completely torn apart in the next moment, and the defending champion would die in the humanoid's signature fog massacre.
However, they obviously underestimated Saber.
"Clang!"
His body moved forward, turned around, and swept out the battle scythe in his hand. The sharp blade collided with the ferocious rattan claws, and in an instant, sparks flew. The huge force of the claw did not even make him take a step back. He clenched his left fist, and blue flames wrapped around his arm, forming a thick shield, blocking the other claw that was smashing down.
"Clang!"
Saber's left arm was smashed down by this blow, and he looked at the swamp monster in front of him, and said softly:
"Not bad! Beast. "
The surprise attack failed, and the humanoid roared as it strode out of the space door. Its two fists were put together like a hammer, raised high in the air, and then fiercely smashed down. Outside its entangled body, the dancing rattan reformed a pair of fists on its twisted body. It did not give Saber any time to breathe, and it suddenly smashed down again. This twisted monster born from the evil of all things, in this arena, released its wild power to its heart's content.
"Eat … … You!"
"Bang!"
This blow hit the ground, causing the ground to collapse, and an impact crater appeared under Saber's feet. The latter raised his head and looked at the furious humanoid. The battle scythe in his right hand rolled, and blue flames wrapped around the blade. Energy seeped in, and lightning wrapped around the sharp blade. At this moment, even the fog in the arena was broken.
"Boom!"
Saber's legs curled up slightly, and then he rushed towards the roaring beast's head like a cannonball. The battle scythe in one hand had been replaced by two, and the halo of lightning outside the ferocious battle scythe formed a sharper and wider lightning blade illusion, like a sharp blade hanging over the humanoid's head, and in the next moment, it was about to slash down.
This scene was like Mars colliding with Earth, and the audience burst into cheers. They liked to watch this kind of head-on battle, and only such a battle could make people's blood boil.
"What a twisted and sad life!"
A cold light flashed in Saber's eyes, and the blade in his hand turned and slashed down. Besides the lightning blade, the burning flames formed another scorching blade.
"I'll send you back to the earth!"
"Ow, ow, ow!"
The humanoid sensed the danger contained in this blade. It could also control flames, but as a plant, flames were its natural enemy. Behind its twisted body, the vines rolled and formed a thick and crisscrossed shield above its head, and it was blocked by its four fists, trying to use this method to block the attack.
"Swoosh!"
A bright light flashed like a meteor across the sky, and the white light made everyone in the audience rub their eyes. It was too fast. They looked at the arena again, and only saw the last bit of fog dissipating. The humanoid's huge body was still in the same place, and behind it, the hard ground of the arena seemed to have been cut open by a sharp scalpel.
A flat crack appeared on the ground beneath the humanoid's feet. It was so deep that one couldn't see the bottom of it. Meanwhile, the audience in front of Seiber stared at the energy shield in front of them with their mouths agape. Even the energy shield that Sky Sovereign Gao personally cast had a crack on it.
"Bang!"
Saber landed on the ground with his back facing the humanoid. He tapped the scythe in his hand on the ground, and behind him, the roaring humanoid had quietly fallen to both sides. On its twisted body, a smooth crack from the head to the soles of its feet split its body into two halves, and fog escaped from its remains. There were no organs inside the body that had been burned by the Killing God's Flame, and it looked like a tree that had been cut down.
"Using plants to fight fire?"
Saber looked back at the humanoid's remains and shook his head. "Weak."
"It's resurrecting! Overlord! Be careful! "
The audience watched as Saber walked step by step toward the gladiator passage in front of him, shouting to remind him. Behind him, the humanoid's cut body rolled in the fog, rebuilding its immortal body. However, Saber did not stop. He reached out and took the fluffy cloak from Drax, who was standing at the entrance of the gladiator passage, and put it on.
He opened his left hand, and the black liquid seemed to be impatient. Saber reached out and threw the liquid at the humanoid's remains as if he was throwing a baseball.
"Resurrection … It doesn't exist. My servant, eat it!"
