Chapter 485: Arrogant Sam
Chapter 485: Arrogant Sam
The prisoners all sent back to their cells.
Sam looked at all of them vigilantly and there is only one thing in common. All of them are human beings and all of them are male. These are all humans who have relatively normal skin tone, unlike the soldiers who has the purple tone and normal people who get affected by the poisons in the air and have green tones, and people who have both of them with green and purple tones.
Apart from that, there are other people who have red skin tone, blue skin tone, and even grey. From what Sam observed his guess is that these people are from different regions and might have worked under others before and got captured by the Nagas of this city.
There is a total of thirty of them and from the words of the person who talked rules just now, not many people will be able to come out.
That night, the meals are sent to their cells and Arman felt a lot better after eating it.
Sam just swallowed a meal. After that, he closed his eyes and sent his consciousness inside the divine dimension that is still inside his stomach.
After swallowing the pill and discovering that there is some kind of poison in it, he didn’t immediately neutralize it, instead, he let the pill enter the divine dimension and fed it to Mia.
Mia can replicate the poison easily, but the amount it consumed but would be enough for him analyze it.
At this moment, he talked to Mia about how long it would take to secrete the poison and how the properties are. This might come in handy after all.
The next day, the thirty members are all taken to somewhere, once again it is like Hogwarts magic. Sam couldn’t find the head-tail of the route. If he is not with the guards, then there is no way he could escape, even if he was able to get out of the cell.
If not for the poisonous air, he would have already let shadow mice out and things would have been easy.
But now, he could see no other ways in the immediate future.
All he could do is play along and see if they could find ways. Anyway, it would be hard for someone to kill both of them here as long as they can fight within their divisions.
He started making his plan. The main goal is to get as much information as he can get and also get out of these people’s influence so that they wouldn’t kill him whenever they wished. He would have to escape and infiltrate some important place to get as much info as I can.
If he cannot directly change the situation in a system from the outside, there is only one best alternative, be a part of it, control and change it however you want it to be.
Now, Sam needs that opportunity, he whispered something to Arman and both of them just walked, they soon appeared at the same Naga lady who fed them pills and from then onwards, it is almost like a normal building, they started moving upstairs and the corridors of the upper floors are almost like hotel rooms.
Similarly, some Half-Nagas are guiding some people out of these rooms. They seemed to be the higher-ranked fighters of the arena.
After climbing up for ten more minutes, they arrived at a large room. There are many tables with Nagas sitting there and organizing something, they could hear the faint sound of the crazy cheers from the audience.
And soon Sam someone come out of an entrance which is almost like a tunnel. His body is bruised and bloody, he broke some teeth, and the lady who fed the pills the day before laid him on the stretcher and started healing him.
At the same time, another man appeared in almost the same condition from another entrance which completely opposite to the first one and the lady went towards him to heal.
She seemed to be the medic in this area and a high-level one at that. But she is using pills and potions rather than the light element.
But he could still feel some wood elemental energy, she seemed to have been proficient in wood elemental healing.
After that, there are some people coming towards them and started collecting the details of thirty people.
When they came towards them, even Sam and Arman gave their details, they didn’t even change their names and just replied truthfully anyway, all they wanted are name and the cultivation level.
Arman’s at Level-4 and Sam is at Level-5.
So, both of them are in the same division, the middle stage Nascent division.
After everyone’s details are taken, the Half-Naga’s came and started taking one candidate after another way.
The matches started.
While the matches are going on one by one, some new people entered the room. Two groups of Half nagas are accompanying two men who have a ferocious aura around them, they seemed to be Late-stage Nascent stage cultivators, he could hear the surrounding Half Nagas discussing them.
Apparently, they are the current rank-1 and rank-2 of the Late-stage Nascent division.
Today’s main match is between them and it is not even the first match. This is the third time they are fighting and the ranks didn’t change, the rank-2 guy was always defeated by the rank-1.
But this event was quite popular in the market and they decided to go for a third match.
As Sam looked at this, he suddenly remembered all the MMA promotions in his past life. The arena is almost following the same business model, except the fighters don’t have any contract binding them, instead, they are almost taken as slaves. At least at the beginning of the whole fiasco.
He suddenly had many ideas.
Soon, it was his turn. Sam looked at the candidate who is going to be his opponent is also a bulky guy with a blue skin tone.
He looked at Sam coldly as he gave a threatening gaze. Sam doesn’t know why he is reacting like that, but it seems that he is planning on becoming a fighter and settle in this arena.
Anyway, it is actually not such a bad idea.
After all, there is food and the incentives will go on and on with the increase in their performance, it is not actually a bad Idea for an average man who knows nothing but fighting.
As Sam exited the tunnel on the other side, he was overwhelmed for a second because of the cheers.
There is a large square ring in the middle of it and there are no ropes or barriers and such. He looked at the blue guy who came from the opposite side of the arena.
Both of them got on the stage and the referee who is standing on a bird type beast and hovering over said from the top.
“You cannot use external inscriptions, formations, and high-grade consumable treasures including medicines and other protection items.
The winner will be decided if one of you loses consciousness, crippled, dead, or decides to give up the fight.
You cannot leave the stage until one of you guys gains the victory.”
At this moment, a transparent barrier appeared around the stage. The man gave out a loud shout.
“Fight.”
The blue guy looked at Sam and said.
“I am going to tear you apart, if you know what is good for you, you would give up. After being chased by them for so long and now I finally got a chance at a new life. Here I can kill as much as I want, this might as well be my dream job. You can do nothing but be my stepping stone.
He licked his lips and his expression became a little twisted.
Sam who is already thinking about how to make the most out of the situation heard this followed by loud audience cheers.
“Go on, kill him. You are interesting. I will bet on you.”
“Haha, seems like another psycho has appeared. Go on kill him.”
…
Similar cheers were heard and Sam is surprised a bit. He didn’t expect that the voice of the fighters could be heard all over the arena, it seems like some function of the stage.
All the audience are mostly Nagas and there are some humans here and there, but they are mostly women who have very little colored skin and are of normal human skin and most of them are female.
They are scantly dressed and are clearly slaves, some of their masters are already groping them in public.
There are some male people as well, and they happened to be the gigolos of the female Nagas.
These people are all enjoying the humans beating each other, maybe this is their inherent hate for the humans.
The blue guy became more ferocious and started making a move.
He took out a sword and ran towards Sam with a crazed look. Sam didn’t attack immediately and focused on dodging. This guy is a warrior.
After continuous dodging, the audience started booing.
“Are you fucking rat? As expected of you cowardly human.”
“DO you only know how to dodge?”
“Oy blue guy, kill him instantly and I will give you a reward.”
Sam smirked at this and suddenly turned offensive.
He started with a punch to the chest of the opponent and then grabbed the hand with the sword.
He twisted the arm to the back and held him in a rear-naked choke with a single hand. Due to one hand being broken, he couldn’t even try to do anything.
Sam then started pounding on his face. He could definitely kill him, but he didn’t. He instead his expression became as twisted as the blue guy and he started yelling.
“What did you say? You fucker?
Do you want to kill me? Kill me now.
Kill me. You stupid piece of shit.
You are going to use me as a stepping stone? I will fucking kill you.”
He started giving blows to the body and face alternatively and the audience cheered like crazy.
“Do it, come on, hit him harder.”
“Come on knock his teeth out.”
They are making such comments and Sam actually followed with that. And soon, the guy became unconscious and the referee declared the fight.
At this moment, Sam yelled from the stage.
“All the fuckers from the Middle stage Nascent division, remember this. When you encounter me, you fuckers better stay put and give up. Otherwise, I will fuck up everyone just like this. From now on, I am the boss in the arena and I will slay everyone in the division and claim the top spot.”
With that, Sam kicked the blue guy and said in a whisper.
“Nothing Personal buddy. It’s just business.” With that, he left the ring and went back into the tunnel.
